ENGLISH AUT0|sTS
 DEATH RATE IS HIGH


 England as well as America has it's own troubles over the accidents caus- ed by utomobiles-neither there nor here do they seem able to prevent people being hlled.
 According to the London Car, 750 people were killed in Great Britain last year, which seems a surprisingly large number. The statistical editor of the Car thinks not and says that:
 In view of the fact that motor cars travelled sixteen hundred million miles last year and that only one person is killed in every 2,133,333 miles run. it is record which any kind of locomotion might be proud"
 He adds that 12.717 accidents were caused by horse drawn vehicles in London alone in ten months, but does not tell us how many deaths oc- cured.

On Seeing Thirty at Auto Show NJ. k. Remington Decides to Have One of the Bigger Cars; Phoenix Garage Notes of Week

After having seen the Case 90 at the automobile show last week. NJ. K. Remington of Ray opined if that was a good boat, a 40 would be bet ter, so he ordered one of the latter from w. ". Catlin, salesman for the Phoenix Garage. The new ear will be in Phoenix shortly and will be de- liyered as instantaneously as possible to it's owner. It is a gray car just like the thirty except it is of seven passenger capacity.
 Not satisfied with the automobile business alone. McArthur and Morse are taking on the J. l. Case line of farm machinery Threshing ma chimes, binders, reapers, balers and all the rest Of agricultural machinery will soon be in stock. The Case con- pany has promised to have ship ment of machinery here in plenty of time for the season when it is re- quired
 The repair department of tEe Phoe- nix garage has had to take on more men to handle the extra work. And it may be necessary to buy up part of the public street to store the cars that are continually being brought in
 c. E Pope. who stored his big Lozier in the Phoenix garage while he visited the valley last week left Wednesday for the coast. whence he came. Mir. Pope was in the valley a week and saw in that time all the wonders it has to offer, also taking the superb trip to the Roosevelt dam.
 J. F. Morrill,, who put up his Sim plex in the McArthur and Morse place while he spent a month here shipped his car to Los Angeles where he will sell it and buy Case He was extremely well pleased with the city and saw a good deal of its att l traetive environs, including the dam.

BOXER NEEDS
 STRONG M|TTS
All Else Ring Fighter Must Have Good Hands; Strangely Enough All Clever Boxers Are Troub- led With Their Grabs

While skill, a good pair of hands and quick thinking brain are a perfect combination for any boxer to possess. yet the good hands come first
 Without the weapons to carry out the other two any boxer would be confronted with an almost insur- mountable handicap. Without them the ideal fighting face or the per- feet fighting build is as naught And with them the head. the power and all the other requisites Of the sue cesSful ring artist can have but sec ondary consideration.
 Battling Nelson. who has stopped more battery charges than any fight CT of a decade, had to go into temp orary retirement a month or so ago, because 'his maulers gave out. Just imagine the Dane having to quit on account of his hands! Talk about the irony of fate!
 Most of ts pictured the battles sprawled out over the five feet and & half of canvass, knocked 'deads by a punch. That seemed the plaus- lble exit Of Nelson from the game. We figured he couldn't stand the wallopings forever. though he ''ain't hardly human
 Hugo Kelly. the Italian middle weight of Chicago fought Eddie Me Goorty and took beating. The battle was the first go for Kelly in months. He had been nursing a. pair of bad hands Those same hands Toll To gave Papke more trouble than any fighter outside of Ketchel. The 1tal- ian was clever fellow. with a cutting left hand, who administered more punishment than he received But he had to take periodical lay offs on account of tender hands. which were always getting hurt.
 Until he injured his hitters. Frank Erne was champion of them all iE the lightweight division. He was the possessor of d terrific punch, and many of the bones in both his hands were splintered at one time or an- other. causing him much agony While he was generally willing to put all his steam into d blow despite the pain he knew it would bring, in his later career he didn't take many chances. Consequently great deal of its effectiveness was lost.
 Another fighter whose period Of money making within the ropes was iessened by his hands failing hiul. was Bob Fitzsimmons. Bob. of course, was old enough to quit when knocked out by Bill Lang three years ago, but he could have parleyed with the gloves for at least year longer but for his fighting apparatus. It is remarkable, however. that Fits hands lasted long as they did, for he was q terrific hitter.
 It's ! peculiar fact that the clever men are usually bothered by weak hands. Kelly, is clever, and so it Attel, Packy Mcfarland. too, has had trouble with his hands and he is a very careful not to hurt them.
 It seems that the hands of boxers who place their blows carefully are broken oftener than the clouters of such sluggers as the late Stanley Ketchel, Jim Flynn, Tom McAfahon and Chicago Knockout Brown. q type that lets the gloves fly re- gardless of consequences.
 Johnny Kilbane. the featherweight king has a soft spot for most of his punches. and yet last year he was handicapped by broken thumb on his right hand.

SPORTING CHAT
 HOT OFF THE BAT


 A recent letter received by Presi- dent Ban Johnson of the American league leads us to remark that base ball is going to the wuff-wuffs. If the writer of the letter is correct in his statements. baseball will soon be a game of measurements and calcula- tions. And then the fans should worry and lose their appetite. Ban has been asked to test out a doojig- ger which will absolutely do away with mistakes on the part of the umpire in calling balls and strikes. In his let ter to the league president the in- Ventor says the contraption is a cross between a telescope and an adding machine and by it's aid an umpire can tell to the fraction of a hair where the pill went. Imagine d crowd of orry eyed ball players yelping about the devoted carcass of an umpire and

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
 AMATEUR AND PROFESSIONAL

Lest they be forgotten. these, in part. were the definitions of an anna teur and a professional in sport as made by the committee of the Ma tiona1 Collegiate Athletic association:
 An amateur in athletics is one who enters and takes part in athletic>c con- tests purely in obedience to the play impulse or for the fun and for the exercise, training and social pleasure derived. The natural or primary at titude of mind or motives determines amateurism.
 A professional is one who secures from his skill, or who accepts of spectators, partisan or other inter- est, any smaterial or economic ad- vantage or reward

the several high schools and the In- dian and Normal schools, Johnson. representing Mesa moved that no player who had wielded the bat more than four years be allowed to take part in any Of the games this season. It was not so decided, but in case it does come to the point where it wiH be take it or leave it, the Indians and the Normalites will be left out in the sun. In case there is a. divi- sion, the high schools of Phoenix, Mesa. Tempe and Glendale will con- stitute the Valley High School league and the pedagogues and Braves must join the same class as the University. Talk about Jim> Thorpe.
 There is some talk among the mag mates of the valley interscholastic athletic association of placing the management of track meets entirely in the hand of the Phoenix Y M. C. A. Director Fitzgerald on more than one occasion has proven himself the only man on the ground who could bring any order out of the chaos of arrangements, and into his mitts, it seems should be delivered the charge of affairs. Particularly since he has shown a ready willingness to accept the responsibility
 Beals Becker, utility outfielder of the New York Giants is sold to the Gin cinnati Reds Becker was once a Phoenix Brown, and as such has re- tained much interest among local fans. He is followed from year to year in his big league career by a host of Ari- Zona friends. Garry Hermann owner of the Reds closed the deal.

Whenever this sort of thing keeps on for any length of time, the indications are pretty sure that said hero for these battles will not spend his next winter in the poorhouSe having nothing else to spend.
 With the Y. M c.
