PHILADELPHIA, April 24—Little athletes and big ones, fat ones and skinny ones from all over the country were on the field in the big Pennsylvania stadium for the annual relay carnival which started here today.
The carnival is billed annually as being bigger and better than ever and the stadium seemed hardly large enough this year for the mobs of school boys and college athletes who had gathered for the two days of sport.
There were more than 2500 entries from 300 schools and colleges and the leading athletes of the east, middle west and south were named for some of the specialties on the program.
Foreign entries included representatives from England, New Zealand, Canada and Cuba.
DISCOUNTS REPORT NURMI ASKS MONEY
NEW YORK, April 24. Officials of the Amateur Athletic Union will investigate the claim that Paavo Nurmi and Willie Riola, Finnish running stars, had demanded $1500 expense money to run in an exhibition race in the Drake Relay Carnival at Des Moines today.
“Frankly, I do not believe the story,” P. W. Rublen, secretary of the A. A. U. said. “I had personal charge of the schedule which took Nurmi to California and months ago I notified the official of the Drake Carnival that Nurmu could not run in their games. I seems unusual that the complain should not have been made before this time.”

Your Work Hard?
By Anaheim Polks Have Found How to Make Work Easier
What is so hard as a day's walk with an aching back? Sharp stabs of pain at every ten twist or turn? There is no peace from that ache.
No rest from the soreness, weakness and weakness. Many folks have found relief through Doan's Pills. They are stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
Anaheim people recommend it.
E. Jordan, carpenter, 319 Philadelphia St., Anaheim; "My work is a strain on kidneys and back. I had backs of backache and a sore across my kidneys that it hard for me to and stooping or lifting. My kidneys acted irreverently but Doan's Pills bought the Anaheim Pharmacy soon some of the backache and put kidneys in good condition."
Foster-Corn Co., Mfrs. Buffalo, N.Y.
Official Bouldin pleaded not guilty to the information when he was arraigned. He appeared with Attorney T. L. McFadden of Anaheim. Bouldin's ball was placed immediately after he appeared at the district attorney's office and submitted to arrest, when he learned a complaint had been issued.
After filing an information in Superior Judge F. C. Drummm's court today, a statutory charge against Lotten Akers, 23, of Santa Ana was immediately dismissed by the district attorney's office.

Accused of passing a fictious check, Charles C. Hansen will go to trial in Superior Judge F. C. Drummm's court May 7, it was decided today when the prisoner pleaded not guilty to the charge.

GRAIN CLOSES LOWER
CHICAGO, April 24. — Grain futures closed lower on the board of trade today. Corn was leader in the downturn.
The trend of wheat was decidedly unsettled. Oversold conditions developed at frequent intervals causing wide price swings. Better growing weather was the dominating factor in periods of weakness. Strength in outside markets had only temporary effect on local conditions.
Free selling broke the corn market. Liberal clearances of Argentine grain, indicating the bulk of business has switched to South America and a freer country movement caused spirited liquidating. Buying was scattered.
Oats showed more weakness than for several days. Selling was the main activity due to apathetic demand.
Spirited liquidating caused a sharp break in provisions.

TIME OF DELIVERANCE
MILLIONS NOW LIVING WILL NEVER DIE
Instinctively mankind seems to feel that in some way delivrance will result in release from the throes of evil, injutice, inequality and death.
Has not the persistent failure of plans and schemes for
life and happiness, blasted hope of deliverance among men?
The Bible's plan now stands forth with great promise.
The exact year, the very date, was not foretold; but with
more certainty, with clearer identity, events such as wars,
volutions, crime waves, inventions with increase of knowledge,
were to herald mankind's release.
Events about us seem to mark man's deliverance at hand.
