A MANS MAN

His semi-ferocious smile, his stocky
figure and bristling hair, his twinkling
glasses, his feeling bully" and other
characteristics, delighted the American
heart of friend and foe alike.
Whatever else may be said about
him, Roosevelt was courageous man
and an open fighter. He was openly
and avowedly no "pacifist" and intoer-
ant of 'mollycoddles." He believed in
nationaism, and was certainly not
averse to war on nationalistic basis.
America cannot forget how he gave his
sons and how they responded, when the
hour of need was here for strong men
and good fighters. The country's SYM
pathy was keen when young Quentin
was killed and his brothers wounded.
lie himself offered to go to war
Long before we entered the grim strug-
gle, when the United States was still
on the sidenes of the great conflict
Roosevelt made his voice heard in an
insistent demand for a vigorous Amer
lean position. Both during the war and
since. he has been emphatic in his de-
nunciations of the conduct of affairs.
In some of these things he has been
justified. In others he was mistaken.
But his Americansm always pre-
dominated.
And as a true-bue American, the
nation will remember him and honor
him.

Bisbee daily review., 1919-10-24
Dr. Lockwood Will
 Lecture at Y.M.C.A.

Dr. Frank c. Lockwood, who has been directing the lecture service bureau of the army education com- mission overseas work of the Y. M c. A., and who was formerly head of the department of English literature at the state university. will speak to- night in the gymnasium of the Y. M c. A. building on '"The Education of Democracy" which will be an intro duction to the series fsix lectures to be delivered here by Prof R. B. von KleinSmid, president of the uni versity, as a part of the proposed university extension course.
 The extension course is a new de- parture in the practice of the state university, although plans for it mad been started when the entrance of the United States into the great war forced other and more, urgent work upon that institution. The lectures are to be delivered in all parts of the state., and are to deal with sub jects pertinent to the newer educa- tion.
Bisbee daily review., 1919-10-24
mars

What appears to be one of the best fight programs arranged lately in Bisbee will be presented tonight at the Grand theater, when Manager O. s. French will put on 26 rounds of boxing. Every evetn of the four that are on the card has been arranged carefully, and with the idea of giv- ing Bisbee fans the worth of their money in honest-to-goodness bat ties.
 In the main event, Frank Lough- cry, the Philadelphia Bearcat, whose battles with Russell Chambers of Douglas have made him a general favorite here, will go ten rounds with Johnnie Celmars, Pacific coast vel terweight, who has come to Bisbee with a hunch that he can take hon ors away from the local pride. Both boys will weigh about 145 pounds, and are very evenly matched.
 Johnnie Meyer, who won a decisive victory over Jap Romero, of San Diego, at Douglas last night, win step with Kid Muscovie who is tout CI dS OuS Ol III 1dSO ; DGSl. l HIS bout will go six rounds. and Meyers friends, who include nearly every fight fan in the county, are pulling heavily for him.
 Another six round bout will be that between Al Mauch and Bob Collins. Both are hard hitting, two handed fighters, with experience and heart, and their battle should be as good as either the main event or the semi-final. The curtain raiser will be fought between Marco Gatchens and Fill Higgins, who are willing mixers and hard sluggers.
 Kid George of Sacramento will ref cree. The decision will be made by two judges to be appointed at the ringside, and in case of a disagree ment of opinion, the decision will be rendered by the referee. The timers will be J. A. Kempton, chief or po- lice and Red Cannon.
