ENGLAND WON CUP Took Imperial Kolapore Prize From Canada at Blslcy Today SPORT CHAT Sons of Canada and Elks will I meet this evening n a City League baseball game postponed from Sunday. Should the Elks win to night they will cop off first half of the season honors and will be entitled to play-off with tho Winners of the second half for city honors. A win for the Sons tonight however, wpuld necessitate a playoff between them and the Cen trals and, should it so come that the Centrals should win the play off, a three way tie for the first half of the season would result. Bluff, hearty, good-humored Sir Thomas Lipton, for all his 80 years, Is as determined today as at any time in the past to carry home across the water the America's Cup, which since the first contest in which H was at stake has been in the custody of our United States PerhaDS beine born in Glaszow nf future of a child.

Couple that with the roving, .460 Jovial Irish qualities and you have .395 a Sir Thomas Lipton. It was the .381 Irish in him, one would like to lma- .378 gine, that sent him, a Glasgow sta tioner's errand boy. overseas at 15 to America, mythical land of nrom- lse, to work as a grocer's clerk, to drive a New Orlean's tramcar. to canvass for a portrait firm, and fin ally to find employment on a South Carolina plantation. He would need all his bubbling Irish humor and the endurance of the Scot to push on through these experiences, saving money to be able at last to re turn and open a small grocery busi ness in the city of his birth. The exnanslveness of America having become part of his youth ful growth It was only natural that one store should grow to more and more until the necessity of supplying his many retail shops all over the United Kingdom with provisions on the most favorable terms would lead the enterprising adventurer to become proprietor of his own Ceylon tea, coffee and cocoa plantations, a Chicago hog-packing plant, with fruit farms and canneries and bakeries in England. A friend of unnumbered royal and notable persons, the genial sportsman has been celebrated In many an anecdote and fathered as many more. But one seems particularly characteristic.

CUICKLT PRACTICE The next cricket practice will be on Saturday evening of this, week, It was announced this morning. to live over again the thrilling Dast. She was to be furbished and made gay once more. For this great oc casion the beloved admiral's fa mous "England expects" signal was to be bent to the halyards again that all England might remember. A combination of business acumen and Irish wit promoted the tea magnate to have a word with the man whose duty It was to hoist the coae nags which would flaunt the slogan to the winds for wafting to an empire and the world. The morning sun of the great day rose and its rays shone brtehtly on tho bunting that proclaimed to all who conld understand the symbols that England expects every man to drink Lipton's tea." The "shot heard round the world" had nothing on that for reverberations. History Is silent on exactly what happened to the slenalman.
