Or. Gardiner Does Not Approve
Plan for a New East-Side
Highway.

The committee on highways OF the
city council yesterday afternoon dis
cussed the proposed new street on the
East Side. Robert /. Gammell, John c.
Pegram C.. +. Dorrance, representing
Mrs. Russell, DR.. Gardiner and one or
two others interested in properly
through which the proposed new street
will pass. were present.
DR.. Gardner was the only person who
objected to having a street built In the
location specified. because he claimed
that II would destroy his home. which
he had quite recently improved and
renovated.
The others. however. made no objec-
tion, so long as IL was proposed TO make
a highway for the accommodation OF We
hicular traffic only. If It was TO he
turned over to the Union Railroad COM
psny then they would object.
The plan provides for a street running
from South Water street. taking in
Leonard street and a part OF the build
ing on the south side Of IL. running
for a short distance parallel with Col
lege street and swinging round through
the back yards between the buildings
on Benefit street and South Main street
IL will then come out On BENEFIT
street. at rhe foot of Benevolent street.
Continuing from this point the new
street runs UP Benevolent and swings
round the Hope Club building into
Prospect street.
The committee has practically de-
cid~d to report this plan at the next
meeting OF the common council. Win

Chicago, Jan. % Local sport follow

die Santry and Terry McGovern, which
is scheduled to take place at latter
Sails February 1.
This fight is almost certain to decide
the featherweight championship of the
world McGoverns brilliant Victories
in the ring and remarkable record of
quick knockouts will probably make
him the favorite in the betting over
Santry. But the fact that remains that
the cyclone from the City of Churches
will find himself called upon to ex-
change jabs and swings with one of the
shiftiest boxers that ever answered the
sound of a gong.
McGovern's adherents are of the opin-
ion that Santry's long and slender body
Will prove an easy mark for the pile

But those who admire the local boxer
figure differently. In the first place
Santry is a past master in the art of
boxing. Contrary to the orthodox SPAR
low when in position He trusts most
~ to swift ducking with the head to es-
cape an opponents swings, but pays
particular attention to the defense of
his body. Moreover, he is as fast as
chain lightning on his feet
He is bad to corner owing to the fact
that he has the Mccoy style of side
step down to perfection and his nimble
legs will carry him out of danger at a
moment when the average fighter would
be forced to a rally at close quarters.
Yet Santry can put up a hard fight at
short range when necessary. Ben Jor-
