SERVICE ASKS AID

The reclamation service of the government is asking aid Of
the farmers along the Truckee River that the crops in the recla-
nation district might be saved this season. w. ID. Cole, the
project engineer, has issued a water warning and asks coopera-
ton tina. the water might be allowed to flow to Fallon, where the
crops are in danger of burning up for lack of moisture.
The succession of two dry seasons on the watershed has e
suited i'm a crisis. The natural flow of the stream has suddenly.
and earlier than usual. decreased to a minimum for the season Of
the year. Lake Tahoe lies at a new low water mark for this
date. and under natural conditions, without control by the dam,
would now probably be discharging little o n water into the
river.
1t is only by reason of AXE regulation that Reno valley ri-
gators n at this time able to secure the use of sc much as 400
second feet of water. The Truckee-Carson project is now suffer
ing from the water shortage. and is threatened with very serious
loss of crops. with the consequent loss of its beet sugar industry.
which would be a calamity to the entire State of Nevada.

I'LL boxers and their managers
Wy ever learn to work in the
w interest Of the fistic game
rather than do things to hurt the SPORT
When fans pay their money to see a
good boxing bout they do not like the
idea of having the contests cut in two
by having the time OF the rounds
shortened to suit the boxers, that is.
when the contests are advertised as
regular bouts There was a time when
two minute rounds were often sDbsti-
tuted for the regulation three minute
rounds in various parts OF the states,
but of late there has been very little
of it. When Battling Nelson met Ray
SorensOn at Racine the rounds were
cut TO two minutes by the club as it
was feared the famous Battler might
put the home boy away for the ten
count and they did not want any Of
it The fans afterwards kicked about
the shortened rounds
The same thing has been carried on
in England to such an extent that the
best writer's now claim that II has hurt
the British boxers greatly; that instead
Of training hard for a contest as ne
should do the boxer takes life leis-
urely as he knows he can stall
through two minute rounds without
much trouble and as a result poor
bouts follow
Recently at Plymouth, England, Sid
Burns. who fought in New York some
time ago. and Tom Mccormick were
to fight 20 rounds and A. C. Bettinson,
manager of the National Sporting club
OF London, was agreed upon as referee
OF the match, but when he reached
Plymouth he found that the rounds
were to be of two minute duration
Therefore Mr.. BettinsOn refused to
Officiate stating that unless the rounds
were of the regulation time he wOul0
not act. All contests at the National
Sporting club in London are under the
Marquis of Queensbury rules and must
be three minute rounds. which Mr.
BettinsOn says makes for better box
ing
Regarding the matter Mr.. BettinsOn
writes. The short round bouts are
the bane OF boxing in this country, as
the boys know that they need not be
in proper shape for contests and rarely
take the trouble to train properly
AnOther thing where the rounds are
cut to two minutes the contests US
ually result in a series Of clinches and
rushes both contestants knowing very
well that if they get into any sort OF
trouble they can stall through to the
gong 1t is very likely that NJ Bet
insOn's action viii have a beneficial
effect on the British boxers, for they
will learn that they cannot get away
with such work with the big promoters

The Elk tailenders of the Cactus

plete surprise to the rollers, who antici-
pated an easy victory for the Old

splendid form lately. The theory that
no one can tell what a bowling team
will do in a three game match. came out
on top. Holmes rolled his best game
of the season. and was only exceeded
in high total by Foster with a margin
of three pins. Clark rolled his best
game in the second frame, and coming
only one pin behind Holmes for the
high game honors. The EIks rolled an
average well over 900 for the three
games.
''Doc" weaber fell down on his re-
cent form and rolled only one good
game, which was in the first period
