WALTER MILLER.

Paul, arc about the same age, and at
the present time weigh within few
ounces Of each other, each tipping the
beam at about 152 pounds, Gibbons
is about three inches taller than Mil
Ter, but more slender.
Seven years ago Miller and Gibbons
ioined the st. Paul Y. M. c. A. Miller
wanted to become a first-class boxer,
while Gibbons was determined to make
wrestling his profession. Both boys got
along we'll Gibbons succeeded in win
ming a number of wrestling bouts, while
Miller acquired considerable local fame
with the gloves Among his bouts WAS
a. ten-round draw with Jack Redmond.
About this time Alex Sloan, who is
now managing Disbrow, the automobile
racer, and who was formerly associated
with Bill Pickens in handling the bust
nes affairs of Barney Oldfield, decided
that Gibbons might become a boxer. a
match was then arranged between Mil
Ter and Gibbons. II was to be for flf-
teen rounds and would mark Gibbons 3
first appearance in the roped arena
Miller started training for the bout
six weeks ahead Of the date set for
the contest. He worked so hard that a
week before the contest he was over
trained TO such an extent that his ply
sicians ordered him TO go TO the country
for a good rest as the only thing which
would prevent him developing consump'
ton.
This caused the contest to bo called
off and Gibbons went back to wrest,
ling. About this time wrestler named
Felkey hit st. Paul and was meeting I'll
corners. Gibbons tackled Felkey and
was slammed all over the ring.
When Miller returned from the coun'
try. his health fully restored, he deter
mined to take whirl at wrestling. His
first public appearance was against
Felkey, who had beaten Gibbons. Much
to the surprise of the fans, Miller
made Felkey look like novice and won
easily.
That Convinced Miller that he should
be wrestler and he has followed the
mat game ever since When Miller de.
cided to take up wrestling Gibbons went
into boxing. For the greater part of
the past seven years these two men
have trained together at the st. Paul
Y. M. G. A. Miller has been wrestling
instructor there, while Giggons has had
charge of the boxing classes.
Today Miller is boxer of no mean
ability, while Gibbons probably could
hold his own with any of tho second
rate middleweight wrestlers.
Miller Is mere now training LOT DIS
finish match with Mike Yokcl at the
Saltair Hippodrome one week from
tomorrow night. In his training he does
great deal of boxing and shows that
he is good at both wrestling and box
ing, being far and away the fastest
grappler who has ever appeared in Salt
Lake.

For the next few months millions and
millions of people al over the world
will be daily discussing the Olympic
games which are to be held at Stock

by the multitudes, is that the winning

Special to Tho Tribune.
OGDEN, May 1S.-No mercy was
shown to the Ogden Bfackrnen by the
McCafferty band today when the Miners,
with a reinforced lineup and pitching
department. romped home with an easy
victory and administered the most Sc
we're drubbing OF the series. The final
figures were 10 to s.
There were several reasons for Og-
denis decisive defeat, but the principal
ones were Dell, late OF the St Louis
Cardinals, in the box for the Miners, and
Jachs on the slab for Ogden McCaf-
ferty's infield was also strengthened by
the addition of McQuaid. "Weiser'' Dell
blew in today from ST Louis and Man
ager McCafferty hcsitated TO work him
today because of his long journey, but
did so when Lee, also a new face In the
Butte lineup. blew up in the second in
ming. Lee failed to locate the plate after
a brief period Of fruitless endeavor and
his flights were primarily the result of
Ogden's first three counters. When the
tall Cardinal went on duty the Miners
went past the Maclss so fast the fans
thought Ogden was standing still.
Jimmie Jachs was part OF deal
whereby McCloskey obtained the pitcher
and Outfielder Marshall from the Butte
contigent. Marshall did not get Into the
game today, but Jachs did, He was
pounded all over the lot by his former
teammates. The score:

This has been the open session for
pledging candidates for the general
assembly, Cast-iron pledges bin@ng

piece OF proposed legislation without
change by so much as the dot of an
81 or the crossing of It" have been
circulated among candidates of all
parties by various organizations with
the demand that they be signed under
pain OF mourning their (inferred) op.
position.
Ii is entirely commendable for a
candidate TO state plainly his views
to tha people whose votes he seeks
and to pledge himself to support In
the best form possible some program
to advance the public welfare, but
this signing of hard and fast pledges
at the behest of private organizations
Is another matter.
Legislators should be free to use
their judgment In the peoples inter,
est. Some candidates say they are
willing to pledge themselves on constf
tutional questions because they are
willing to submit ANYTHING to the
people for vote That is poor rea
soning. The people do not want ANY
OLD KIND OF A CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT, drafted by officially ir.
responsible persons, submitted to
them. THEY WANT THE BEST KIND
OF AMENDMENTS THAT THE MEN
