The announcement made in The Call
yesterday that Michael Riley manager
of the Casino Athletic Club of Tonopah
had called off the proposed Britt-Gans
match, scheduled to take place in Tono-
pah on March II, caused a ripple in
sporting circles and the question was
asked, Did Riley get cold feet?"
The managers of the principals still
have a faint hope that the Nevadan
promoter will carry out his contract
but from Riley's attitude there does not
appear to be a chance that he will change
his mind. His announced reason for
calling off the hght-the fact that Cans
signed articles to box Harry Lewis-fs
not believed to be the real one In the
first place. he had not received definite
information that Cans has signed with
Lewis According to advices received
from the East, the negotiations between
the two boxers were called of because
Lewis demanded big losers end

M'CLENDON'S SLAYER

John E. O'Neill. we'll known young
man Of Jacksonville, shot and killed s.
Z. McClendOn at Belleview. a town
near Ocala, Tuesday night. From par
tiCulars that have reached the Metrop-

ONeill is quite a young man, and
has just attained his majority. He liv-

formerly with the Southern Railway
and lately has been clerking for G. A.

The broken hearted mother did not

O'Neill has several relatives here
who are highly respectable and were
shocked at the tragedy.

THE SALOON MEN WERE
NOT REFERRED TO

We understand that the saloon men
felt aggrieYed upon reading the follow
ing statement, which appeared in
yesterday evenings Star about the
proceedings pertaining to the with
drawal of names from the petition
asking for a wet or dry election. viz:
That whole pages were thrown out
which were recognized as forgeries.
We desire TO say this in no way re-
ferred TO the saloon men nor
the men who sought these sig
natures, but to the men, who
ever they may be. that By their sigma
lures 10 said documents that they had
signed said petition for a wet and dry
election and withdrew the same. The
contention of Attorney o. T. Green is
answered in the account of the pro-
ceedings of the county commission
eTs at this mornings session. We did
not say in that article that Attorney
Green said that some of the with
drawals might be worthless.
The Star is not disposed TO misrep-
resent any one but to give the in
cidents OF the occasion as they hap
pened so far as ii referred to that in
cident. There were two sheets oil
ages Of said names.

A movement for the enrichment of SUI
burban and country life through public
parks containing the best of the nat
ural scenery had its beginning about
1892. During that year the Massachusetts
legislature created the Metropolitan Park
commission, which has now acquired, at
expense of the towns and cities OF the
district, 10053 acres in the metropolitan
district and outside of Boston. The prn-
cipal holdings are the Blue Hills and
MiddleseX Fells reservations, forty-seven
miles of frontage on the Charles. Mystic,
and Neponset rivers. and FIVE beaches
with ten miles of shore. The commits
sion has expended about 81, 200 900, and
individual cities and towns in the dis
trict about 1923, 100000 more on their own
account.
When the commission took Revere
Beach, the Coney Island of Boston,
railroad ran along the shore, and the
sands between the track and the water
were damned by an ugly huddle of dingy
and decrepit bath, fish, and boarding
houses. Their owners, eager to utilize
every inch OF space had built so far out
that at two-thirds tide the public was cut
off from the water. and could pass up or
down only by walking upon the railroad
tracks, where trains were running every
ten minutes. Women and children
Stunned the rough crowd
The commission removed the buildings,
l07 in number, from the shore front, re-
quired the railroad to place its tracks
at the rear of the village, and substi-
tuted an eighty-foot macadam highway
1t erected and maintained a bathhouse
used by 1892 persons last year, which
has accommodated III persons in one
day The beach attendance stimulated
both by good police protection and by
private amusement enterprises has
grown from 100000 to 5OOO, 900 annually
The pleasures of the shore must be whole
some, as a hundred thousand-a day
crowd has frequently required not one
arrest. This is clearly not due to police
laxity, as women and children feel so
safe as to constitute half the attendance
When a shower comes, the police are less
given to scurrying for doorways, more
likely to be found rounding up helpless
broods of children for tired mothers
