LA FOLLETTE BIG GUNS FOR EAST
WASHINGTON, July 15—Robert M. LaFollette's heaviest campaign guns will be fired in the eastern political battlegrounds this fall.
At LaFollette's own request plans were being worked out by his managers today for a tremendous drive along the Atlantic seaboard, straight into the heart of what is called "enemy territory"; in the agricultural west, LaFollette's lieutenants already claim the largest vote for their chief.
LaFollette himself was said to be sanguine about his prospects in the east, especially in the larger industrial centers. If he can find a "strong eastern democrat" as running mate, for whom his managers are searching, LaFollette feels there is an excellent chance to swing several Atlantic coast states into his column this fall.
formal statement to be made by the veteran leader of the Socialist party since the organization decided at its Cleveland convention to put no national party ticket in the field this fall.
In making his pronouncement as titular head of the party, Debs declared the alliance thus made with LaFollette's party for independent political action constitutes the grasping "of this golden opportunity, this supreme juncture, with formation of an American labor party in sight."
The Debs statement was variously interpreted by political leaders here today as being really a swan song of the old "inflexible school of no compromise" socialists. Speaking of the Cleveland convention, Debs said:
"Certain it is that the most progressive elements of American labor were represented at the Cleveland conference. And equally certain that these elements fairly represented the organized labor movement, with which, generally speaking, we have never therefore been in vital touch and without which the Socialist party never
PARIS, July 15.—American swimmers today showed the class in the Olympic contests with two representatives of the United States easily won their heats and the 200-metre breast stroke.

In the third heat William Kirschbaum of Honolulu took minutes and a second to win course, finishing ahead of Procy of Czecho-Slovakia.
In the water polo contests, Sweden defeated Spain 9 to 0 Czecho-Slovakia deefated Ireland 4 to 2.
A dramatic incident occurred during the swimming of the 200-metre trials when the judges hed competition and ordered Tamer Chapman of Toronto out of the pool because the Canadian Swimming association had provided his entry was made under auspices of the Canadian Olympic committee and the A. A. U.
"They are trying to wash the dirty linen in the Olympic chairman said. "They had been keep such stuff at home, fight has been going on over years. With Tommie Walker qualified under the auspices of the A. A. U. and Canadian Olympic committee at Brantford, Canada. Later the Canadian Swimming association held try-out Winnipeg. We could not allow a 700-mile journey. Any way had qualified."
"The Canadian Swimming cation seems to have some influence here."
Walker also was bitter. "I entered in the 100-metre stroke tomorrow and I am going to swim if I can get a place dive off when the race begins he said.
George Hearn, president of International Swimming Federation, made the following statement to the International Service:
of what is called "enemy territory"; in the agricultural west, LaFollette's lieutenants already claim the largest vote for their chief.
LaFollette himself was said to be vanguine about his prospects in the east, especially in the larger industrial centers. If he can find a "strong eastern democrat" as running mate, for whom his managers are searching, LaFollette feels there is an excellent chance to swing several Atlantic coast states into his coluwn this fall.
Every day LaFollette's office also is besieged with letters and telegrams urging him to come to the Pacific coast. Although his managers have advised him against too attenuous a speaking tour, it was learned that LaFollette himself is seriously considering a three or four week trip in October that will take him along the northern states to the coast, returning through the campaign just before election with a rail ymceeling in Cleveland's great public hall, where he was endorsed for the presidency by the conference for progressive political action.

AT UNITED THEATRE
A unique conception of a "Wild Party" may be gained when that picture is shown at the United starting tonight.
The mix-up into which a girl reporter was thrown following a story which brought about a libel action makes a delightfully funny farce-comedy. Robert Dills is the good looking leading man and Sidney Brace, as the bootlegger, is responsible for many laughs.
Billy Sullivan, as the "Fast Stepper," is an added attraction and the second of the series to be shown at the United us "The Information Kid."
