more physical training and athletics
not less.
According 10 many authorities, the
men at the front both among the al
les and the central powers. who had
previous training in athletics and
gymnastics. have not only stood the
strain aud stress of the life in the
trenches better than the unframed
men. but they have also recovered
much more quickly from sickness,
wounds and injuries
In fact athletic sports, developing
exercises and applied gymnastics
were first introduced as a means Of
training citiZens and soldiers for war
Most Of the portable apparatus now
used in our gymnasiums, such as
shots or stones, bar bells. quarter
staves or wands, Indian clubs, single
sticks. etc, were once used In actual
warfare. and heavy apparatus have
all played their part in training SOL
iiers for the battlefield,
Sports Resemble War.
"Many of our sports have their
origin in the supposed resemblance
to personal conflict in their attack
and defence, flight and pursuit, etc.
/ The antaconiStic sports. such as
wrestling. boxing. football. come nearer

great source of their present day pop

our American youth will not aban-
don their sports altogether at this
time. To do so would, in my opinion,
seem to Justify the criticism so often

Tommy Burns and Kid Mccoy Are
Threatening to Do Ring Comeback

Stirred by the successful money col
lectinE efforts OF such comebacks as
Battling Nelson and Johnny Coulon,
two other veterans of the ring are
moving uneasily in their shrouds and
threatening to return also.
Frop, Seattle, Wash, comes an an
nounCement that Tommy Burns, for
mer heavyweight champion, will re-
enter the ring on April 20 and will try
himself out In n four-round tilt with
Willie Meehan, the fat boy OF the Pa
cific coast. If successful. there is no
telling how far Burns will go In his
latest campaign. Burns has been
stating for some months that he In
tended to get back into the game but
no one has ever taken him seriously.
Apparently he is sincere now. and as
he can easily find promoters who are
willing to traffic in his past prestige
II is likely that the former title holder
will figure quite prominently in ring
affairs hereaftcr--that is, If he makes
any sort of decent showing against
Meehan.
The other prospective comeback is
Kid Mccoy, divorce court champion.
pet of the caharets, soldier of fortune
and all-around fighting man. Mccoy
is now dickering with Gotham pro-
moters in an effort to land any match
that holds out promise of financial re-
turns. In all probability he will get
into harness in the course of the next
month or SO.
Mccoy spent last summer on the
Mexican border with the United States
troops and his sojourn there appar-
emily filled him so full of pep that he
is hubbling over with youthful ambi-
tion to come back and figure once
moro in the game that he helped
make famous.
Mccoy tried once before to return
TO the ring but 1t cannot be said that
he was n bowling success. This was
about two years ago and big Jim
Stewart was his opponent. 1t was an
exhibition of cunning old fighting
mind against boyish ambition. Nc

ney General.

Railroads Notified That Booze VIII be
confiscated Monday-Follows
Federak Court
Ruling.
MUST HAVE PERMITS

No more booze shipments In Iowa
after Sunday. Is the text OF an order
being issued the railroads OF the
state by the attorney general OF
Iowa. Attorney Havner has received
copy of the decision OIL the y. ..
circuit court of appeals. and IN this
the court holds that under Iowa laws
and U. S. statutes, liquor cannot De
shipped into dry territory. me only
persons who can receive such lQuor
are permit holders" or druggists
and 80 percent of these have no per-
mits.
This means that Keokuk as well as
Iowa will be "bone dry tomorrow.
No specific instructions have been
received here by county oficlals-as
one of them said today that OF course
the state already being dry 1t would
MT make much difference anyway.
Under the orders being issued by
the attorney general it will not De
possible for trains and common car
riers to bring booze into Iowa from
Illinois. nor can it be carried IN suit
cases from wet to dry territory.
The attorney general has not1hed
the railroads of the state that begin
ming next Monday he will order all
shipments confscated, II they are
consigned to persons not holdlne
permits. This means that about the
only way to get any thirst quench,
ing beverages into Iowa, 1t will be
necessary to carry them across In
small amounts, tiny enough to not
arouse the suspicious of the officers.
