TATE GETS
DECISION IN
FAST BOUT

A right wallop In the fourth frame
hy Texas Tate, local heavy weight
boxer, knocked out Bob York, Of
Pueblo, in a mill scheduled to last
ten rounds, at the Liberty Theatre
in Dallas Friday night.
York has scored victories over
several majors sia-lhe heavyweight
class, including Fred Fulton. He is
reputed as being one Of The fastest
heavy weights in the ring.
lrollowing is an account of the
bout, as given in the sporting page
Of a Ft. Worth newspapers
The lucky right wallop to the chin
by Texas Tate put stop to the
aspirations of Bobbie York of Pueblo
In the fourth round of scheduled
ten round bout at the Liberty theatre
Friday night 1t was heavy weight
affair Until the demise Of York, he
had clear advantage and promised
to be sure winner before the limit
had been reached.
After grueling attack in the
third canter in which he all but
oycrpowered Tate with rights and
lofts to the stomach, the bell saved
the day York came back with
rush to resume his tactics in the
fourth only to run into a smashing
right from Tate's mitt which sent
him like rocket to the floor He
regained his feet at the count of nine
and in a helpless condition stopped
several more blows to the head and
again went in heap on the mat
He recovered before the final count
OF ten, but Referee Harry Gilmore
closed the bout with a decision in
'rate's favor. York was a game loser
and in his helpless condition was will
ing to receive all Tate had to offer
and carry on the battle. York is one
u the cleverest men who ever ap.
peared before local audience and
from the start carried the favor of
the crowd. He hit Tate at will and
had just begun fatal campaign
against his opponent when lie met
the punch which caused his undoing.

GAS IN THE STOMACH
IS DANGEROUS
An Indication Of Serious
Stomach Disturbances.
How to Overcome.

Gas and wind in the stomach ac-
companied by that full, bloated feel
ing after eating are almost certain
evidence Of the presence of excessive
hydrochloric acid In the stomach.
creating So called "acid indigestion"
Acid stomachs are dangerous be-
cause too much acid irritates the
delicate lining Of the stomach. often
leading to, gastritis accompanied by
serious stomach ulcers. Food fer
ments and sours, creating the dis
tressing gas which distends the
stomach and hampers the normal
functions of the vital internal Or
gans, often affecting the heart.
1t Is the worst of folly to neglect
such a serious condition or to treat
with ordinary digestive aids which
have no neutralizing effect on the
stomach acids. Instead, get a small
package of Bis-Mag tablets from any
druggist and take two tablets in a
quarter glass Of water right after eat
ing. This will drive the gas, wind and
bloat right cut of the body, sweetcn
the stomach, neutralize the excess
acid and prevent it's formation and
there Is no soreness or pain.
Mag Tablets are a safe, harm
less and inexpensive compound Of
Bismuth and Magnesia and are used
by thousands of people who enjoy
their meals with no more fear Of in
igestion.-(Adv.)
