MOORE LOST ON FOUL
Information From England Is That Referee Decided Against American Boxer for Infraction of Rules.

New York July 19.-AcCording to yesterdays cabled information from England Pal Moore, the American bantam, was decided against by Ref
 cree COrri because of violation of the English boxing rule prohibiting the striking of blows with the open
 glove. It is declared that Corri
 warned Moore in the tenth round. and
 it was this offence that cost Moore
 the victory. Corri did not diSqualify
 Moore, as he could have done under the rules, but named Wilde the win ner on points. Only one warning is said to have been given to Moore about the open glove offence. despite the fact that it has been the custom
 of English referees to warn an of fender three times and disqualify for
 the fourth violation.
 In the absence of an official state
 ment from Corri, it appears that he
 decided in Wilde's favor on points, although the real basis for the de- cision was Moore's violation of rules. By this decision the impression is con- veyed that Wilde had the better of the engagement on his merits as d boxer, although all reports agree that the Briton was decisively outpointed by the American.
 Cabled comments on the bout re-
 ceived here yesterday are as follows: Moore outponted the British fly weight cham pion. but repeatedly struck him with open gloves. Referee Corri cautioned him in the tenth. This
 cost him the victory. The verdict went to Wilde on points. Tn the last five rounds Wilde was bleeding at the mouth and nose, but he hung on and l forced the fight, though Moore land- ed freely.
 "Moore's best rounds were the six I teenth and seventeenth, when he wal 1 loped Wilde all over the ring. Wilde
 came back in the twentieth round ! showing a burst of speed and taking 1 the offensive. Wilde missed frequent | ly in the last ten rounds and left the 1 ring nearly exhausted. Moore was l fairly fresh.

One of the latest musical come
dies now running in New York has
a plot which centers around a Scotch
professional golfer, one MaSPher-
son, who has invented a golf ball
which cannot be lost, for it cries
like a child whenever it finds the
rough. Fair enough for a plot.
But the thought which comes to
mind is this: In some Of the rough,
which each Of us may recall, it would
be a strange experience for one to
walk along on a Saturday afternoon,
when the course was well crowded,
listening to a lot OF lost golf balls
whimpering and bawling mamma,

which it was constructed to say, for
it is to be assumed that there would
be a variety of them. 1t would
sound like an orphan asylum or a

means that we want to be left
free to work out our national

SCHOOL MAKES A
SPLENDID RECORD
IN OLD KAINTUCK
PARK AVENUE WARD SCHOOL IN
NEWPORT SELLS $2e 900 WAR
SAVINGS STAMPS.
BOUGHT Sis DURING JULY
Only AIS Pupils In School and Sales
Have Reached 5000 Per
Capita.

There is a school in the northern
part of Kentucky that is in a class by
itself in developing patriotic boys and
girls who in the years to come are
bound to make their marks in the field
of craftsmanship. finance and in gen
eral endeavor.
Records available at the headquar-
tiers of the War Savings Organization
for the Eighth Federal Reserve Dis
trict in St. Louis do not reveal any
other city in the United States that
has a school that is making so good
a record in the sale of War Savings
Stamps as the Park Avenue Ward
School at Newport, Ky.
This city, with a population Of some
thing like 30. 600 Inhabitants, is justly
proud of the Park Avenue School,
whose AIS pupils during the scholastic
year Ct 19ls-1919 bought War Savings
Stamps totalling $4,000. or S6O.9S per
capita.
These stamps were all acquired be-
tween September, 1918, and June, 1919.
During that period the saving habit
was so inculcated among the pupils
that even during vacation period they
kept up the good work. Up to July 10
the pupils bought, in July, SIG worth

to the school house on the day select

owe the amount of money.
Miss Dora Cummings, one of the
teachers in the Ward School. Is secre-
tary Of the War Savings Society that
has made this splendid record. She
has received the uniform support Of
every teacher in the school and the
pupils imblbed the thrift spirit and
are doing all they can to keep their
school at the head of the School War
Savings Societies in the United States.
Miss Cummings and the other teach
ers devoted a specified hour each week
to %instructihg their pupils in the bene-
fits Of saving and in doing their duty
to their country. The children were
told that because of the great war CON
ditions had arisen which required the
federal government to spend vast
sums Of money and that the only way
these sums OF money were now avail.
able was through the sales of the gov
eminent securities offered through the
War Savings Organizations. This APP
pealed to their patriotism
Then the thrift side was taken up.
The children were told how they could
buy Thrift Stamps for % cents each
and when they had acquired l6 that
the Thrift Stamps could be- exchanged
for a War Savings Stamp, they i'm
mediately began working for the hold
er. These War Savings Stamps, they
were told, drew interest al the rate OF
4 per cent, compounded quarterly, and
II held until maturity, on January /,
1924, would be worth IS.
II, however, the pupil be compelled
to realize cash on his investment,
he may 90 to the postoEice and get
all that he paid in, plus 8 per cent

Thus the pupils were shown that they
were serving a dual purpose, helping
their country and themselves and
learning the value of money. which
would stand them throughout life.

The Highest Americanism.

1t is the boast of the Repub-
lican opponents of the Treaty
and the League covenant that
they are "for America first"
Senator Watson of Indiana, in
the course of his interview at

Wilson an internationalist," an
appellation the President declin-
ed to accept.
Mr.. Wilson may well decline
to be called an internationalist,
for in seeking the application of
the Peace Treaty and the estab-
lishment of the League of Ma
tions he is doing more for A.
merica, for America first, than
all the Republican Senators OPP

to do for their country even
should they live to Biblical ages.
We are profoundly interested in
the welfare of our sister nations
none but the narrowest and

the League of Nations will be
the great bulwark Of our own
peace and security. In proper
ton to our greatnessA as a ma
ton, to the immensely of our in
terests, which would be imperil-
ed by war, we are more deeply
concerned than any other ma
ton for the erection of this great

If the League of Nations had
existed in 1914 there would have
