that Tex Richard. promoter of the

It is Brother Eds plan to go

several middleweights in the east

in tackling Thorpe he is not pick
ing anything soft
Several months ago White slipped
away from Fort Sheridan and boxed
this Thorpe person ten rounds in a
Des Moines ring. That argument
was called a draw by the majority
of critics, and naturally that was
not satisfactory to the Chicago boy,
which accounts for the making of
the present match.
White should be returned the
winner over Thorpe, chiefly be-
cause Of his superior punching abil-
ity. If the bout goes ten rounds, it
will be because the Kansas City
scrapper knows how to take care
Of himself, or, in other words, works
out defense to make Whites left
hook worthless. On the other hand,
few look for Thorpe to end the bout
with knockout before the limit. If
it goes ten rounds, either man may
win, with the odds favoring White.
The Milwaukee mixup will inter-
est quite a number of local fans,
who will make the trip to see what
happens. This pair also have clash
ed once before, the result of their
first meeting being a share victory
for Dundee, due principally to the
fact he connected with Mftchell's
chin and upset him for a count Aft
er that knockdown Richie recovered
quickly and made a strong finish,
but could not overcome the big
handicap.

Game at 7. NJ. C. A.
By @Fry.o

The Rock Island high school bas-
ketball five easily won it's last sea-
son game from Moline Saturday
night in the local "Y." The final
score was 81 tot 81. The Islanders
clearly outplayed their opponents at
all times and were never in serious
danger.
Anderson scored first for the Is
1anderS after several seconds of
play. The locals rushed the Moline
squad off it's feet the first half and
in spite of Green's good work the
,>6eriod was nearly over before the
-Swedes" scored Dopp, Parks and
Anderson, however, kept rolling
them in and the Islanders succeed
ed in garnering SO points. Moline,
on the other hand, thanks to the
locals guarding could amass only
points.
In the second lap Moline staged a
comeback and held the Islanders
more closely. Green played a great
game and was responsible for most
of Moline's scores. Toward the end
of the half second team men replac-
ed all but Dopp and Anderson Rock
Island piled up Is points in the last
lap; Moline Is.
The game offered good practice
for the Islanders in preparation for
the state tournament next Friday
and Saturday. all of the Islanders
played good game. Anderson
played In his old farm under the
basket and threw the ball through
the hoop 40 times. Dopp played in
stellar form and counted with nine
baskets and one foul goal. Parks
also played good game and shot
Sight baskets before he was taken
out in the last half Duffin made a
better. showing In this game than
ever before. Besides playing well on
defense he shot one pretty basket
the length OF the floor. Greve, the
other guard, was also good on Of
fensive, and did his share IN holding
Moline.
For Moline Green was the star.
He was IN every play and not only
shot baskets but guarded as well.
Samuelson also played a good game
Next Friday the Islanders will

SAGE AND SULPHUR

It's Grandmother's Recipe to
Restore Color, Gloss
and Attractiveness.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and sulphur, properly compound
ed. brings back the natural color ano
lustre to the hair when faded, streak
ed or gray. Years ago the only way
to get this mixture was to make it at
home, which is mussy and trouble
some. Nowadays, by asking at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" you will get a large
bottle of this famous old recipe, i'm
proved by the addition of other in
gredierts, at a small cost.
Don't stay eray' Try it. No one
can possibly tell that YOU darkened
your hair, as it does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time: by morning the gray
hair disappears and after another APP
plication or two. your hair becomes
beautifully dark. glossy and attractive.

That it is a dangerous thing to look
with longing eyes on other mems
wives is the moral brought out in
Thomas II. Ince's latest Paramount
picture "Other Mems Wives in which
Dorothy Dalton Is starred with a re-
markably strong cast supporting her.
The story concerns n young girl in
desperate circumstances who is used
by a designing man as cats paw to
scratch the domestic felicity of another
mans wife. He who disdains the sane
tity of the home. is in love with a
married woman and is an apostle of
the creed that all is fair in love. The
husband is above reproach and the
only hope or divorce grounds is to
catch him in some compromising posi-
tion.
The young girl, played by Dorothy
Dalton, is used for this purpose. In
the dramtic development it turns out
her character is too strong and she
exposes the intrigue. The crisis revo-
lutionlzes her own life and wins for
her the respect of an honorable man
that later develops into a true love.
