GARY WANTS
PROGRESS
ON ROADS
Interurban Projects, With
Exception Of One, Prac-
tically at a standstill, City
Thinks it Time for Some
thing Tangible.

People are wondering what the
status OF affairs is in regard to the
various interurban lines that are now
contemplated and which are destined
10 connect Gary with the adjacent ter
ritory. especially that south of this
city because the town is practically
barred there at the present time.
Numerous roads have applied for
franchises. lines have been suggested
and talked OF, but up to the present
time only one of them. the Gary & In
1erurbans road to Hammond. has SO far
ulaterliazed It is of the greatest i'm
portance TO Gary and as much SO to
the surrounding territory TO have com
ssunication at once. The rich farming
districts viii be relied upon greatly
ia the future to supply Gary with the
products Of the farm in place of South
Water street IN Chicago. which has
largely been the source of supply in
tee past.

Nor is that the only reason. but it is
further argued that Lake county cities
have so much of mutual interest in a
business and social way that direct

Is Imperative. II is also an invaluable
asset to the real estate dealers who
have subdivisions in the outskirts Of
the city. which will prove valuable as

BATTLING NELSON
ORIGINATES BLOW
"HaIf- Scissors" Punch Is the
Latest in the Repertoire of
Lightweight Champion.

Battling Nelson claims the oTigina-
ton Of brand new blow to pugilism.
He calls it the "haif-scissors hook" In
telling of his use of It, Nelson says:
L wish to say right here that tbs dis
covery of this blow Is largely RESPONSE
bic for my entering the ranks Of the
champions. Soon after had discovered
aspirants for the championship title,
and I keeled them over one after an
other.
The half-scissors punch is nothing
more than a quick hook which lands on
the top Of an opponents liver. The blow
is always unexpected, and Il is 50 pain
fui that it is almost paralyzing in its
effect. That was the blow that dealt
Joe Cans at Goldfeid when It was
claimed that had fouled him. But We
viii take that up later.
The left half-scissors hook is dealt
with the side Of the left hand. In com
ing out OF a clinch fight fans VIII notice
that the left hand Of a fighter Is With
drawn, as a rule, from under the right
arm Of his opponent. Il is Just at this
moment that the blow must be deliv-
cred.
Instead of hitting with the knuckleS
of the fist. I take a swing OF not more
than six inches and plunge the side Of
my hand with thumb and forefnger on
top Of my opponents liver. To test this
blow, suppose one Of ycu get a friend to
tap you about three inches below the
right armDit, and a little forward. To
De explicit. the spot is on the two low
er ribs, about two inches above the low
eF rghthand pocket Of your vest. A
slight tap on that spot viii send q pain
shooting all the way to the spine
1 have struck men with that punch
and they would crumple up and fan in
q heap. The pain is intense. Often tbe
blow is not seen by the spectators. and
they have an idea that the fighter who
rails is quitting or laying down"

ONE CHALLENGE CUP
THAT WAS NEVER WON

There exists in the world today but
single challenge cup that has never
been won by any aspirant for athletic
honors-that is the famous Alexander
cup, of solid silver, standing three feet
high on its solid silver pedestal, and
worth about $500. This cup will be
given to the man who swims across the
English channel. from the shore OF Eng
land to the coast Of France.
The feat was performed once by Cap
tain Webb, in 1875, in twenty-one hours
and forty-five minutes, but never has II
been repeated, although several persons
have come within as little as three
quarters OF q mile of repeating Webbs
marvellous feat.
Some forty attempts in all have been
made to swim the channel since Webb
succeeded. Cayill, in 1877. and Dalton.
an American. in 1880. claimed 10 have
succeeded, but neither claim was al
lowed
Webb is said 10 have swum the chan
mel and is usually credited with the per-
Torrance, but this was before the Al
exander cup was offered for competi-
ton. So this superb trophy has never
been awarded TO anyone. Wolfe, who
made the nearest approach to success,
reaching within three-quarters Of mile
Of the French shore, has made six at
tempts. Two of them he made in 1908.
Recent attempts to swim the channel
have brought out theory that it can
not be done by starting from England,
but would be easier from the French
TO the English side of the channel. Still,
Webb is said to have started from Brit
ish ground. There is a terrific ground
tow and tide set off away from the
French shore, which has always killed
off the energies of the channel swim
mers when almost within striking dis
lance Of the French coast.
