PUBLIC IS NOW SHOWING DEEP
INTEREST IN OUTDOOR SPORTS
CHICAGO, May 25.—(.By Associated
Press.)—The 1923 crop of fans in out
door sports bids fair to exceed nil
records. Baseball has started otff
with unparalleled patronage; reser
vations for the leading horse and au
tomobile racing events indicate enor
mous crowds, and the prospective
summer program of outdoor boxing,
especially among the heavyweights,
doubtless will draw many thousands.
Arrangements for handling spec li
ters have ibeen largely expanded in
every spectacle from baseball and
football to horse racing, and still
seems inadequate.
The Now York Yankees' new park
was opened ro 74,200 baseball fans
with 25,000 turned away. The Chi
cago Cubs’ enlarged park April 22
inclosed 38,000 persons, ,and thou
sand! stood on the playing field
New 'baseball parks in other cities
were similarly favored.
The management of Churchill
Downs, Louisville, Ky„ has expanded
seating facilities to care tor some
30,000 persons for the Kentucky
Derby, ,but confidently predict that
the total attendance at the historic
event, will approximate 100,000.
Legislative interference having
been overcome, promoters of the Me
morial Day auto race at Indiannpoli
are going ahead with preparations to
handle a erawd of 150,000.
Wilth a heavyweight championship
boxing contest practically certain for
this summer, and a meeting of the
principal heavyweight contenders al
ready arranged, the fan crop in the
padded mitt division appears as
flourishing as any. Chicago's firs:
openly conducted boxing match for
nearly 20 years drew 15,000, the ut
most capacity of ithe Coliseum, early
this spring, and subsoquen. contest
have been almost as well patronized.
The .first day’s attendance at the
four American League parks was
138,200, elightly more than double
the 1922 opening crowd. The Nation
al League opened to 95,300, 2,000
more than in 1922. but the Giants
opened away from the home crowd a
the Polo Grounds, somewhat reduc
ing 'the total. The American Associa
tion in five park openings drew al
most as many fans as In all the eight
cities of the circuit last season.
The great increase in the number
of public and private golf courses
last year has added thousands to
the ranks of the fans who will be
eager to witness the American oham
plonsHiips of the links this summer.
The University of Illinois opens its
new stadium this fall; Nebraska re
centlv ‘broke ground for a n w ath
letic field to ibe ready this fall', and
Minnesota is conducting a drive for
a new stadium, In response to th
wave of popularity which has carri?'
football to the peak in public interest.
The Davis Cup matches for world
supremacy in tennis are scheduled for
Forest Hills, Long Island, again this
Bummer, adding opportunities for the
tennis enthusiasts to swell th,-* ranks
of attendance on outdoor sports. A
new tennis stadium is being built by
the West Side Tennis Club and will
be completed by September

Games Help to
Teach Correct
Use of English
HAiUFAX, N. S., May ?5.— (—B:
Associated Press.)—'Nova Scotia, Ion;
regarded as a" “well of English, par
and undefiled,” today launches i
‘better English Week Drive,” wit:
Miss Rosamond M. do Wolfe Arch:
bald, a teacher at Acadia Seminary ii
Wolfeville, as cne of the leaders.
Miss Archibald claims to have i
brand new system of teaching tin
spoken rword She has invented i
game, known as "corrections.”
“One day during the war,” she ex
plains, ”1 realized the swift changi
from a raw recruit to a finished sol
dier that « month iff military drll
produced. Then I saw the amazinj
folly In onr methods of teaching cor
rest speech:
“I called my pupils to their foet
to stand at attention, to salute tin
flag, and to recite in concert a fev
correct sentences, drill fashion. Thet
I sent them forth to correct errors
copying down odrreetions only of al
mistakes detected at home, in schoo
and in public speaking.
"The effect on their speech wa:
magical. In a week of practice w<
had accomplished what a llfetimi
of theory has often failed to do.
“Today parents are playing the
game of 'corrections,- with their chi!
dren and, incidentally, benefittin;
by it.
“The child links un his iangttagi
with his flag. Ife is mads to fee
that it is just as treason ib'e to maki
a this tales in his speech as to dis
honor that flag.”
