EASY VICTORS
(By Associated Press,

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2O.--
Johnny Frayne earned a clean-cut
victory over Dick Hyland tonight,
being given the decision at the end
of the twentieth round. Frayne had
the best of the fight after the tenth
round. His blows, we'll timed ami
placed, kept Hyland fighting desper-
ately on the defense all the way.
Monte Attell defeated Percy Cove,
of Seattle, in the tenth round of the
earlier fight, being awarded the de-
cision in the tenth round when the
referee stopped the scrap because
Cove looked like a chopping block
by the stinging punches of the cham
pion. A great crowd, one of the

TOURFROMNEW YORK
MINTHORNE wOOLsEY ARRIVES IN
BIG AUTOMOBILE.
Enthusiastic Advocate of Good Roads,
Suggesting Working of Public
Highways by State COnvicts-
Left for Selma Last
Might.

Arriving In Montgomery yesterday
shortly before noon in his big six-cyl-
Under automobile. Minthorne Woolsey
of New York city and formerly of Sell
ma, tells most interestingly of his long
tour through New Jersey, Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia, Virginia, the
Carolinas, Georgia and Alabama. The
trip from New York took sixteen days,
the start having been made June 16,
but many of these days were spent
lettering along the roadside enjoying
the country.
Mr.. Woolsey Is an enthusiastic sup
porter of good roads. On the trip he
reported many good roads, while other
roads were good only in spots. The ma
chine arrived in Atlanta Thursday
night, and the party, consisting of Mrs.
Woolsey and chauffeur, spent Friday
night in Opelika, making an early start
for Montgomery Saturday morning.
Mr.. Woolsey found the roads of East
Alabama in excellent condition, the
trip from Tuskegee to Montgomery be-
ing made in two hours Near Mont
gomery the excellent roads of Mont
gomery County permitted faster travel.
the machine arriving in this city in
fast time from the county line.
The tour from New York was made
in the interest Of good roads. and was
a trip of pleasure at all stages. Mr..
Woolsey, in advocating good roads,
said yesterday
II was impressed all along the route
from New York city with the good ma
tured spirit of rivalry which existed
between neighborhoods, between cities,
between counties and between States,
which have made a start in securing
good roads. Judging from the crops
which / have seen between North Car
olina and Montgomery, the fields are
better cultivated on the good roads
than on roads which have not been
kept up. The farmer seems to want
to keep his crop In the same excellent
condition as is the road.
This leads to the suggestion that
when a mans lands are on good roads
he wants his crops Ind farm generally
to harmonic. 1t MAKES a man ener-
getic, and the roads enhance the value
of lands.
This Is another suggestion. Instead
of the State hiring out its sentenced
criminals to some coal mining corpo-
ration, let them be pdt to work on the
public roads of the State. 1t will be
Just as much punishment to the Grim
inal to work on the one az the other,
and living In the open 1t makes bet
ter, healthier man of the criminal by
the time OF the expiration of his SEN
tence."
Mr.. and Mrs Woolsey left yesterday
afternoon for Selma, where he will re-
main for a week or ten days visiting
relatives. From Selma Mr.. and Mrs.
Woolsey will motor to various points
in Mississippi and Louisiana where
business interests need attention. From
a tour of these States the motor party
will go through the northern portions
of Mississippi and Tennessee to Mr..
woolsey's summer home in North Car
DINA.
