PACKEY FIGHT is STOPPED.
St. Louis Police Last to Prevent Nc
FarIand Bout.

st. Louis, Oct. 1O.-Members of the
police department refused to permit
''Packey" Mcfarland of Chicago, and
Grover Hayes of Philadelphia, to box
six rounds here Monday night before
the Mozart club. A crowd of 1000
had gathered at the coliseum to see
Mcfarland and Hayes and two pre-
liminary bouts
Chief of Detectives Allender notified
the clubs officers that arrests would
be made if the club staged any of the
boxing matches. He allowed two
boys to wrestle.
This is the third time within re-
cent date that Mcfarland has been
prevented from fighting by the police.
No person not club member was
admitted to the coliseum, as was the
case in the two former meetings of the
club. To come within the law, the
club, which is incorporated as the Mo-
zart Gesang Verein, with athletic and
singing exercises as its main objects,
has had a quartet sing between each
of the bouts.

In fact, It is an excellent plan to remove

Here is where understandable rims are

changing so easy that the owner does not

Tires which are removed from the rims
should be wrapped in paper to exclude

The tendency toward closed cars has
been more and more toward separating
the driver from his friends. At the same
time, owners are showing, more and more,
their preference for driving their own car.
They realize the fun it is to sit behind the
steering wheel.
But since they have appreciated these
pleasures they also realize their isolation
from their friends in the rear compart-
ment. This brought about the demand for
a closed car, where the owner could drive
and still be one OF his party. The result
is this STANDARDIZATION Sedan.
