ENROLLING MEDICAL MEN
FOR MILITARY PURPOSES

London, April 22.-(COrrespondence
of the Associated Press All medi-
cal men throughout the country, re-
gardless of age, are being asked to
enroll themselves to meet IAN ur-
gent national need" The work of en-
rollment is being conducted by the
medical war committees in England,
Scotland and Ireland
For military purposes the service
age of doctors is up to 45, but medi-
cal men beyond that age can give
their services to home hospitals, and
therefore they. as well as doctors of
military age, are being enrolled.
The idea of making a complete en-
rollmen is not only to insure sat
isfactory medical service for the army
but also to safeguard the needs of
the civil population. In some dis
tricts, there has recently been a great
scarcity of doctors, due mainly 70
enlistments. s's

The reports of the committees on
the British medical service in the

lent" In none of the main theatres
of war has there been any lack of
high surgical and medical skill. Re.

about the service in Mesopotamia,
but the shortcomings in this district

asks for and can utilize. In France,
the wounded soldiers are quickly
treated at the front hospitals, and
then rushed to England for further
attention. The transport and other
machinery between the front clearing
stations and the great hospitals in
England has been perfected until it
works almost automatically
Doctors who have enrolled for ser
vice at the front have few complaints.
There have been several instances,
however, in which physicians with

At ATHLETIC

INTEREST MANIFESTED IN BOX.
ING GAME AND GOOD, CLEAN
SPORT is FURNISHED PATRONS
OF CLUB.

The main event Friday night be-
tween Jimmy Bibb of Fort Worth
and Lonnie Tucker of this city, ter
minated rather suddenly in the fifth
round when both contestants went
through the ropes and the turmoil
which followed prevented further ac-
ton. Bibb outweighed Tucker by ten
pounds, as announced, but despite
this Tucker made Bibb look like a
novice in every round, and would un-
dOubtedly have won the decision had
the match been prolonged to the limit.
Under the circumstances, Referee
Miller and Manager Edwards an
nounced yesterday that no decision
would be rendered, but that the boys
would be re-matched for the next
show for the same route, if both are
agreeable.
In the prelminaries, Roy Young
had it all over kid Cohen, and the
bout was stopped in the middle of
the third round. BLACK Slick" and
BLACK Nose" went six rounds, with
the decision going to Slick" Nose
was dissatisfied with the decision,
however, and they will be re-matched
at the next show for ten rounds,
which will give the fans a chance 10
determine the mettle of the two dus-
kies.
Big Mud" from Oklahoma City
and Sugar Boy" Combs of Ardmore
were to go six rounds, but at the be-
ginning of the fifth, Mud" seemed
to have corraled Sugars" angora,
and he refused to continue, therefore
the bout was awarded to the muddy
one.
Manager Edwards announced some
classy events coming, and the Ard
more Athletic Club members will have
some real sport during the coming
season. Mr.. Edwards is pleased with
the support accorded him, and in the
future promises that no repetition Of
last nights main event will occur.
