AUSTRALIA WILL AGAIN
 BECOME PUGHISTIC
 PRODUCING CENTER

Boxing in the public schooist
 That is the program that promises to make Australia again the great producsing center of pugilists.
 There was a. time, and that no so long ago. when the kangaroo country numbered champions among it's prin- cipal exports.
 What old-tirne fan cannot recall, with emotions of p1easure-which were formerly not unmixed with envy the great Australian invasion. when the big land across the Pacific sent us dozens of fighters, among whom were many who were the superiors of the best of our boxers.
 For a decade or more. Australia has produced no boxers Of note, but there is every chance that, thanks to Snowy Bakers. scheme of introduc- ing boxing into the schools, the An- tipodes will not develop a new crop Of champions.
 Among the lads who are now bang ing away at each other in the high school gyms of Melbourne. Sydney, Brisbane, and other cities, doubtless there are several future champions Of the world. i
 Almost any city school has some lad who. with proper early training, could gain name and fame in the ring. Baker, ''the Australian pugi1is-

tic trust 2 has taken the right meth cd to find them.
 Of course, the development of pro fessional boxers Is only an incident of main purpose the physical training of schooIboys. Every lad who takes part in the boxing bouts provided by the Australian school authorities will be the better for it, mentally, physi- ca11y and in every way no matter what business. trade or profession he may adopt in later life
 Very few of the lads who take the boxing course, have any capacity or desire for taking up the game as 8 profession, but it Will be strange if a few do not develop the physique stamina and c1everness which will en- able them to shine in the professional ring.
 Under the Australian plan, only a few boxing instructors have been en- gagged, but 1t is proposed that when their present pupils become sufficient ly proficient they will act as instruc- tors to other boys until finally boxing will spread over the whole country, and be adopted by all the public schools It is 8 bully 1deas and Wor- thy of ssthe trust
 The difference between the Aus tralian plan and the method by which American boxers are developed, is Just the difference between slipshod. hap hazard methods of business and mod ern scientific. efficiency. The Amer ican lad has to learn the game in the hard school of experience, aLds while this method has produced many great boxers 1t cannot compare with the Australian plan
 Within the last few years Australia has slumped badly in it's local pugilis- tic crop, and s'the trust has had to S-- R-s FfNJ-T17 7eaS-ez America and England, Hughie Me eegan. the Australian lightweight champion, has been defeated by sev- era1 English and American boxers Dave Smith, the midd1eweight cham pion of the island continent, who re- gently retired, was only choppfng block for the American invaders. The same is true of Bill Lang, Bill Squires and other modern Australian heavy weights.
 A quarter of a century ago. how ever, things were different in those days nearly every ship arriving in SetlA Francisco from Australia had in its cargo an Australian boxer of more than average ability. Purses were small in Australia in those days, and as soon as a boxer showed some ab1l- ty he sailed away for England or the States
 Greatest of all these importations was Bob F1tzsimmons, the fighting marvel of the century, who landed in San Francisco in 1890- The freckled fellow used to train with me, and if ever there was more proficient piece of human fighting machinery it was before my time. Of course, Fitz was a, Cornishman by birth, but he re- ceived his pug11istic education in New Zealand and Australia
 Peter Jackson, the great negro, was another boxer who came from Aus tralia- There is no doubt that in his

Blannes Non -Moslems
 For Turkish Situation

London, Nov. 3-His Highness, Aga Khan, who is known as the spiritual head of the Mohammedans in India, East Africa and Central Asia, has sent cabIegrarn from London ad- dressed to the MosIems in India and other British doninions in which he expresses his deep sorrow that Tur- key has joined hands with Germany in the war.
 In this message Aga Khan,t says: This is not the will of the Sultan but the will of the German officers and other non-MosleTns who have forced him to do their bidding T He declares further that Turkey has now lost her position as the trustee of Islam. She has drawn her sword in an unholy war and the duty of Mos 1epns today is to remain loyal and faithful to their temporal and secular allegiance.

prime he could have won ths cham pionship, if the "color hne~ had not been drawn a gainst him.
 Frank SIavin was another great Australian heavyweight. He de6eat- ed Jake Kf1ran at Hoboken. and whip ped Charlie Mitchell in saloon sht but was defeated by Peter Jackson
 Joe Goddard was one of the gamest and most durable fighters in the ring but he couldn't compare with B5tG or Jackson. At that, he could have whipped any of the present ',ghopes'' with one hand
 Jim Hall was another great Austra- Han ntddleweight- He defeated F1tz- simmons in Australia although this has fbeem declared a fake fight but Inter was whipped by Ruby Robert at New Orleans Hall died in VViseonsin a year or two ago.
 Dan Creedon, a New Zeaiander by birth, was also 8, star of the middle weight divson. He claimed the mid dIeweight tile after F9tzsnmons be- by Kid Mccoy. Billy Mccarthy was another crack niddleweight

 Among the Australian 1ightweghts, Young Grifro was star, and he has seldom had an equal for cIeverness. He fought draws with Joe Cans and Kid LavigneP and defeated a number of good Americans. 'sIron Bark Burke was the legitimate predecessor of Battling Nelson, and he had all the Danes durable qualities
 Among the 1ittle fellows there were several new perfoF-n3ere F14o47, AlIsfrsl5~. Billy Murphy won the worlds feather weight title in 1890 by defeating Ike Weir, ''the Belfast Spider" at San Francisco. Griffo also fought as a featherweight and defeated Weir, and fought several draws with George Dixon. Abe Willie was another good Australian featherweight, and fought George Dixon for the title at San Francisco in 1891, but was defeated
 Other Australians of lesser note, but good, game boxers, included the Mathews brothers, Sam and Dick; Paddy German, Jack Hall and George Gunther, the black Hnfddle-weight But the latter-day crop has been dis ppoiiting, and Australia finds pooE consolation in such men as Dave Smith, Hugflie Mehegan5 Herb Me Coy, Hook Reyes, BilI Lang. Bill Squires, Arthur Cripps, Steve OsDon- nell, Ali Mercy and Jack Read.
 But look out for the rising genera ton of Australian boxersl They are likely to put a big dent in the ranks of American and EUropean pugtlists.

 for Gossard.

Gossard the sslaee in front" corset enables a wom- an to save moneyin purchas- ing suits and dresses. One trial proves it.
 Saving is made because .Gossard corset does away with need of. special tailor ing or dressmaking. Half the troubles of women who have to have things made are actually groundless. Gossard corset will mold the form so a ready suit or dress will fit well; the money paid for special tailoring is saved or used to bliy other apparel.
 There is a Gossard for ev- cry type of form. Each one is shaped and made so it in- sures the fit of every gar ment and the comfort of the wearer.
