and lend a friendly hand to make

me his paper had 20 correspondents

GETAWAY
Maze By First "Ringer" With
out Winnings
Chicago Journal

There have been many ringers"
in the history of sport, and this form
of deception is by no means extinct.
The methods have changed little since
Jem Ward started the game of guile
away back in 1923. On July 1, 1923,
Jem, who later became champion of
England, set the stage for what was
probably the first feat of the kind.
He found it impossible to get fight
in London, and as he was short of
money, he cooked up little scheme.
Jem was an artist and something
of an actor, and the plan he decided
on was artistic. With a couple of
companions he tramped to Bath,
where the races were to begin on
July 1. On the way they logged them
selves out in the regalia of simple
rubes, and it was in this disguise
that Jem reached Bath, then Eng
lands center of fashionable iniquity,
on the first day of the race meet 1t
was the custom during the race meet
at Bath for the "toffs," or noble
sports, to hang up a good purse for
the local yokelc to fight for, and it
was this purse that attracted Jem to
Bath.
Jem, who called himself "Sawney
Wilson," and who said he was farm
laborer, looked the part, and he had
no trouble in getting a match with
Joe Rickens, the Somerset champion.
Joe was a town lad. He poked fun
at the "rube" and threatened to eat
him alive.
The bogus countryman, after few
awkward moves, soon tore loose, and
the crowd realized that they had been
stung and that "Sawney" was not as
green as he looked. Jem's friends
had put up lot of money on him at
good odds, and this enraged the spec
tators.
Ward had no sooner knocked out
his opponent than the cry Of Lynch
him!" went up, and Jem had to run
for his life. Ward and his friends
were glad to escape from the mob
with their lives and didn't wait to
collect the purse or their winnings

 Tshe most striking creation shown is a black tafeta gown, with a hoop btfi1f into the hem The pantalettes of ante -belIum days are worn with this gown, only the 1914 pante1ettes are made of white chiffon The others used to be starched-
 President Mime Ripley showed the 1000 dressmakers gathered from all over the middle east a gown she says was inspired by Chicago. It was a smoke gray chiffon underskirt1 of srnoke blue taffeta, lined with gold. A Lake Michigan green velvet belt and touches of iridesceat green and silver are the most striking features of the gown. It suggests sunlight and s11a- dow and the atm osphere of the smoke city.
 The grasshopper suggested another dress to Nine Ripley. It is made of olive green chiffon, with. overs1xfrts Of yellow and pink There is a btffFanf effect in the back, draped to suggest the body of the grasshopper.
 Depending from the shoulders is a drapery of iridesoent blue chiffon, lined with silver. This is to represent the wings of the grasshopper. Under the wings are p1aitings of yellow and mink. which show with every move menf of the dance

 Dr. McQueeney's observations on Lakeview home were elicited by 2 letter from Supt. Gordon. pr. Me Queeney had refused to enter into 3 secret movement to oust Cow1es, but willingly wrote a report on the con ditions. He had made no secret of his views, which he wrote as he had frequently expressed them to Cowles, and other officials of the department.
 Dr. McQueeney was asked to dis cuss the sanitary conditions in the building; the use of distnfectants; the hospital conditions, the use of. drugs, and particularly the report of the enl- ployment of an attendant addicted to use Of drugs; use of intoxicants, par ticularfy as to quantity; and to the prevalence of verrnin.

 The ball players on the world tour had a lot of fun with people they met on shipboard and Eng1ishmen particularly were their victims. One of the Britons to whom the players took a particular aversion was tue ship doctor on the trip from Austra- 1ta to Egypt The ships doctor was a. mincing, se1f-oonscious, cocky in- diyidua1 who made no hit with any of the rough and ready Americans.
 The doctor was talking to Steve Evans at the table one day. Don't you Americans fear the yellow peril 2's he inquired.
 ''No." answered Steve between bites. 'The Chinks and Japs don't bother us any except when we send out our laundry and they tear up a good $5 silk shirt. ''
 But suppose your navy was smash ed, the doctor remarked in loud and piercing squawk.
 That's some suppose replied Ey- ans. There would be lot of smashing done to somebody else first. They have as much chance of smash ing our navy as bunch of bushers have of knocking Walter Johnson out of the box
 How beastly funny these crude American ball players ta1k,'' some one heard the physician commenting 1a- ter. T don't understand what they say.'
