frames scheduled for the bout
Jack seemed to have Downey's meas
ure taken in the second frame and from
then on hit his opponent when and
where he pleased. Downey seemed 20
be in fair condition. The fans here had
picked him to win as they figured that
Downey had stood Britton off In a ~
round bout in the west some time ago
and that the Columbus boy had improv-
ed greatly since then.
They were treated TO a great surprise,
as Britton never showed better in his
life than he did here last night. He
seemed to be playing with Downey and
in no round did he seem TO be exerting
himself TO the limit.

HIGH SCHOOL
FLAG FIGHT

The annual Junior-Senior nag fight OF
the Hammond high school started last
Monday night when the Juniors unfurl-
ed their gold and black class emblem to
the strong south wind.
During the past years the high school
custom has been that the Seniors should
raise their flag four days before the
class day exercises but this year they
did not raise their flag because they
feared they could not protect 1t. So the
Juniors steeplejack. Donald Williams.
climbed the sixty foot flag pole and wiz
ed the Juniors flag TO 1t thus making 1t
impossible for the Seniors to lower It.
When the flag had been wired the high
school bell was run TO let the public
know that the class of 10 had raised
their flag.
After Williams had lowered himself to
the ground numerous class yells were
given and a snake dance was held. Up
to the time Of this writing none of the
Seniors have ventured TO touch the
Junior nag.

ing has brought this out SO much as
the war. Being a peace-loving peO-
pie naturally our energies were not
centered on preparations for war.
NOW that war IS being vigorously
prosecuted the matter Of prepared
ness in all lines is securing more at
tention than heretofore War has
not proven a matter Of men and guns
as is the general vague idea OF pre-
pairing an army. 1t means economy
in all lines and preparedness This
tendency is shown by motorists They
are buying the best tires because ii
pays best and because il is economy.
Everybody recognizes that all the
energies Of the nation are required to
finish the task before US and one Of
the ways motorists are going about it
is 10 be prepared in the matter Of
good tires. Loss Of time now means
more than ever That's why there

Mostly Obsolete Cars
Afected-UpBeep By
Owners Is Very Marked

There is not such a radical change
in the matter Of tires after all caused
by the government restricting the
sizes" was the statement Of Ben L
Clements OF the Borderland Auto Sup
ply company, this morning. The
sizes authorized to be made are the
popular ones and the tire business
was on the verge Of standard ization
any way. The old sizes were cut and
the cars recurring those sized tires
are obsolete"
AIr. Clements reports continued ac-
tivity in repair work on autos. 'I
don't mean repairing altogether in
the sense OF shop work. but such care
as the owners themselves can make.
Perhaps the word -'upkeep" would ap-
ply better than repairing. The idea
Of an ounce Of prevention being worth
pound Of cure is quite prevalent
among autoists and they are giving
more attention TO uDkeep. What is
actually being done bv repair men IS
shown bv the fact that we have
placed eight Dri Kure retreaders in
ou- Arizona territory durinE the last
week. Th'e means Qualifications for
