THE COST OF Cl
RUNS UP mn
New York May 13.-the recent pub
lieut iou, of the varioue college ath
lette association's financial associa
lion's financial statement brings viv
id ly to mind again the largo sums a
money received end expended in th
course of a year for the suppport o
varsity sports and competitions whicli
because of thc popular favor and at
traction, not only pays for themselves
but carry the burden of others where
in thc expenditures are far in exc?s
of all receipts sud subscriptions.
Some years sgo, during the perlot
whoa Too ball was subjected to a blt
ter attack, a famous defender of tin
game declared boldly that that foot
ball, despite all the sins that wer?
vharged against it, made possible al
th3 college sports which the reform
era were constanly comparing with tin
gridiron game, much to the latter":
detriment. That there has been inti
nctchangc in th? situation in recen
reasons is cleirly evinced by the cur
rent athletic association's financial re
ports. Football is still the big monej
maker and the sport that supplies tb?
money for thc Bupport of a majority o!
the other athletic teams each year.
Some idea of the amount of moue;
received and disbursed by the footbai
authorities during a season of approx
innately ten Weeka may be gathetec
from the annua' -eports of the Prince
ton and Harvard Athletic associations
The financial statements, BO far ai
football Js concerned, refer to tht
season of 1912, but since there is not
much deviation from a general aver
age, they serve all practical purposes
when used as a comparative basis.
Princetons gate receipts for ulm
games amounted to $67,313, of which
$41.933 or more than one half wac
received as the Tiger's share of thc
Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth games. The
six contests with the minor colleges
netted Princeton but $5,379, an aver
age of- less than $1,000 a game. A

Los Angeles, Cal., May 13.-Los An
geles has been noted for years for
having one of the most complete city
and suburban transportation systems
?Ttbe country, but'It !fas not he?n corf:
tent to rest upon this enviable reputa
tion.
To keep up with the growth of the
interurban traffic and to make exten
sions of the line, the Pacific Electric
obtained permission a year ugo to Bell
bonds to the amount or $7,000,000.
This money is now being expended as
was originally planned.
This year the Pacific Electric has
made many improvements for the bet
terment ci its system. More thsn fif
ty'miles of new track have been com
pleted, while fifty more are under pro
ees? of CuiibU action, in tr,is tarter
group comes the connection of San
Cernadino with the Pacific Electric
line which now goes as fsr as Pomo
na, and then by branch to Claremont
'and Ontario and uplands, extensions
' at Los Angeles harbor and at New
port beach, the connecting of Corona
With the. Riverside line to San Ber
nardino, extensions at Torrence, and
additions to tho etty lines of Pasade
na, which are maintained by the Pa
cific Electric. *
The company has spent $1,600,000
in 1913, in the purcahse of the new
passenger equipment. This includes
7r> new ears, 45 of which are of the gi
gantic interurban type and the-re
mained for tho shorter runs. For the

France is Taxing Its People with thc
Gambling Corse,
Paris, May 13.-Legalized gambling
In Franco bsa increased so enormously
that tee government has decided ii
c?Jght to get a Rreated share of tho]
profits]. Under an act passed.in 1007,
the state has been getting 15 per cent, j
of the groBS receipts. A parliamen
tary Commission has brought in a re- j
commendation that from the gross in- '
comes ot gambling casinos the stato j
should have'thres per cent, on incomes
less than _ 12,000 up to forty-five per
cent, on incomes exceeding $1,000,00,
according- to a- graduated scale.
One hundred and thirty three casin
os were authorised by the Ministry of
the Interior last season to have bac
carat the mechanical racing horses,
whist, bridge, bezique, ecarte and
piquet. The official figures bed oro the
commission show that the casinos ip
France at summer resorts and spring3
took in about 910,000,00 profits during j
a single season.
Enghlea, which ls within seven andi
one-bait miles from Paris, had about j
one fifth of the whole, or S2,000,000.
One hundred fifty trains a day run ?
from Paris ?raring the abort holiday I
season, and the opponents of gambling j
^flb'Ui that ",r.;r.vr?<'> ot yous; . men ?
and women from Paris become bank
rupt at the tables every season. The
municipal casino at Nice, owned by the
city, took In $1,600,000 and paid nearly
all the expenses bf the local admin
istration. A second casino at Nice uni
dor a license of the Minister of the In
terior won for its proprietors $427,000:
There were a k number cf little resorts
which were tun at a loss.
Public gambling revenues, accord-]
lng to the official figures, nave increas
ed about four fold Htnor? 1907. These
figures do not include 4,00!? clubs in
France where gambling is allowed and
for which thu state also takes a per
centage of tne prests, ncr tee Pari
nutuel machines at race courses which j
last season took bets of about $90,000..
