TO MEET BURNS
Scrapper
Will Battle Jersey City
Boxer at Lyric.

Baltimore. Md. Feb. 23.-In ap-
probation of his bringing the allied
feather-weight championship to
Baltimore, friends of Young CLANCY,
the tall and wiry East Baltimore
scrapper, are planning to give a
banquet The big feed" as il is
styled. will probably take place
after Chaney's scheduled twelve
round mill with frankie Burns,
Jersey City's ring celebrity, at the
Lyric on Tuesday evening.
ON Chancy's return from London,
where he defeated the best Ameri-
can and European feathers in the
big service Tournament, his friends
wanted to honor him at the festive
board, but CLANCY requested that
the celebration be postponed until
after his melee with Burns. If ever
boxer wanted to win a battle il
is Chaney. and if he does not leave
the ring the victor the local miller

as possible when the clang of the
bell brings him to the center of
the arena to begin the hostilities
with Burns. one of the most re-
markabIe little men the roped arena
ever developed.
Boxing fans from different parts
of the East will come here to see
the Clancy Burns battle. Manager

day received a letter from CHER
Boatswain Richard Schuler request
ing that ten tickets be reserved for
him. Schuler and his party will
come from Hampton Roads. CLANCY
was exceedingly popular during his
term of service for Uncle Sam in
the navy and this branch of the
service will be well represented
Tuesday evening at the Lyric.
Twenty of Jersey City's leading
spCrtsmen will come here to see
Burns in action against the allied
titleholder. In Jersey Burns is
idoIized in the fistic realm as is Kid
Williams in this city.
Washington will send the largest
delegation of glove enthusiasts ever
to witness a similar contest in this
city. Edward Beale Mclean, the
owner of a Washington paper and
the Cincinnati Enquirer, who never
misses a tistic settO of this class
here, and Johnny SChOrr, who trains
his stable of race horses, will be
among those seated around the
ringside. as will also be seen
many prominent Ealtimoreans who
are seldom at pugilistic eventsk In
this city. 1t is sure to be the most
representative gathering of box
ing lovers that ever attended a
show here, with the possible eXCep-
ton Of that between Kid Williams
and Johnny Ertle, which was un-
der the auspices of the Peerless
Club. which is the organization pro-
noting the Burns-Chaney go.

MAGEE QUITS BASEBALL.
Will Stick to Task of Building
Ships.

Philadelphia. Pa, Feb. 23.-Sherwood
Magee has announced his permanent
retirement from baseball and that
he will continue to work at Cramps
Shipyard.
Magee contends that owing TO the
Curtailed base ball schedule and re-
ductiOn in salaries, his job at
Cramps is as profitable as the berth
which he might have with the Gin
cinnati Reds. The former Philhc
star says that he will play ball
with independent teams in this vi
Cinity on Saturdays and Sundays,
so local fans will probably have
ample opportunity to see him in aC-
tion. His loss will be quite a blow
to Pat Moran. the new manager of
the Reds.

 MORGAN PICTURES
Collection in London Valued for Fire Insurance Purposes at Over
 Two Million Dollars
By ASsnciated Press

London, February 27.-Art treasures in London, purchased by the late J. Pierpont Morgan have been valued for fire insurance purposes, at more than $2,000,000, according to. testimony given by an art dealer in a court action here, Some of the pictures, china and other treasurers are in the Morgan residence at Wall Hall, Watford, and others adorn the residence of the late banker in Grosvernor Square,
 The art dealer, who was suing an other expert for a commission for ap- praising the pictures, declared that MT. Morgan secured such good values on his pictures that if they were put on the market today they would bring higher prices than he paid for them, not only because of MT. NJ Morgan's care
 in making his selections. but also lon account of the halo around MT. Nor gan's name"
 Among the pictures described are q Troyon, valued at $75,000; a Crome placed at s100 0o0; two pictures by Franz Hals, valued at Sl25,000 each a Van ioffema, placed at $15,0OO; a Greuze, two Constables and Breton. In the Watford house, the dealer said was picture by Valaquez, valued at s100,- 900; a magnificent picture of John Russell, and a fine picture by Abbot of Nelson.

unfit for night bombing work.
 What is considered by the American navy the most successful aviation op- eratiou resulted from the Killingholme project. This was an agreement by which England was to furnish 30 sea planes and 30 lighters and the United States was to provide 40 seaplanes and 90 lighters by March 1, 1918, for of fensive work in Heligoland Eight. The British were successfully doing similar work from their station at Felistowe. Approximately 100 Americans were sent to Killingholme to train and assist the British while awaiting the arrival of the American planes. By July 1 six American planes were assembled and the British turned over the station to the Americans. It was necessary to leave British planes however, lowing to the faults of the first American ma chimes" It is reported that the Ameri- can propellers were faulty, radiators the first wholly American patrol was undertaken.
 Even under these handicaps, however, the American pilots kept after the sub marines and the Kil1ingholme station had several attacks accredited to it. No case is recorded of where it was known a submarine was sunk but even with its very efficient seaplaue patrol the royal air force was given credit for sinking only one submarine during the four years and a half of war A yer dict of probably seriously damaged' was accredited to American pilots oi Killingholme by the British admiralty

 Trials and diScourag gementS of the United States naval air force in the war are enumerated at some length along with "occasionar' triumphs. Va rious causes are assigned for lack of effectiveness but many of the trouples are said to have been overcome and the service ready to execute what had been expected of it when the armistice ln- tervened. The summary of actual op- erations is interspersed with accounts of the lack of trained pilots and the difficulty in training them, shortage ot machines. stories of the receipt of ma chimes from the United States without propellers, without magnetos, defective parts and lastly of the failure of Italian machines for night bombing for which they were intended.

FRENCH GENERALS
 LOVED BY THE MEN

Paris, February 23. = Forty French generals have been killed m the war, an official list states.
 Five of them. Generals Bridoux, Loy seau de Grandmaison, Marcot, Guigna- baudet and Masnou were generals of division. and the other 36 were bri- gadier generals, although at the time they met their death they were almost without exception in command of di- visions
 General Barbot, one of the latter, was one of the most popular army leaders among the rank and file Clad in a long soldiers overcoat and with the soft cap of the Alpine chasseurs perched on one ear. he used to stroll by himself through the trenches. One day he was hailed by a poilu who was struggling along under the weight Jt two huge soup cauldrons.

 "To the c O." replied the general "Tkat'S where Im going-give us . hand with these cauldrons."

The earliest mention of device in any way resembling the modern elevator or lift may be read of in Vitruvius, who describes hoisting machine which was invented by Achimedes. This elevator ot the second century E. c. was worked by ropes which were coiled upon winding drum by a capstan and levers. The same writer refers to another similar machine which was made to rotate by man who walked inside the capstan Such prim;- tive elevator is still in use to lift pas sengers and luggage from the first 10 the second story of a convent on Mount Sinai.

FLASHES FROM FAULKNER
MUST CLEAN OIL
OFF YOUR TIRES

The coming of the dusty days Of
summer makes It desirable for auto
mobilists to receive authoritative in
formation regarding the effect OF OIL
ed roads on their tires.
The laboratories OF the United
States Tire Company have given spe-
cial attention to this problem. Their
experts state that injury to tires
from oil, on roads in which the oil
has worked well. into the road sur
face. is so slight, as TO be negligible.
But If an automobile is compelled
to pass over newly oiled highways,
the automobiles should. Immediately
after passing through the OIL, take
steps to remove any that has adher-
ed to his tires. Delay in giving this
matter attention means serious harm
to the tire. Tho best method Of re-
moving the oil Is to wipe the tire
carefully. and then sponge IL with
gasolene.- Oil IS . highly soluble In
gasolene. and can be removed from
the. tires quickly and easily with the
aid OF the gasolene.
Petroleum oil, such as light lubFi-
eating. oils, are especially bad for all
rubber goods. Rubber Is porous and
the oil works its way In producing
q chemical change. which makes the
rubber weak and mushy. This effect
may not be noticed at once by the
tire user. Oil spilled on tire or tube
viii shorten its life.

MASTER TRUCK IS
TESTED 100 WAYS

CHICAGO, April 26.-Chicago is
rapidly becoming the truck center of
America and will eventually become
to the truck industry what Detroit is
to the passenger car business. This
is such an assured fact that the So
ciety of Automotive Engineers is con-
sidering moving its headquarters to
Chicago, to be more nearly in the
center of the industry.
One of the leading makers of trucks
watch has adopted Chicago as its
home, or really one might say, vas
born there, is the Master Truck,
manufactured by the Master Truck,
Inc.
In this company il is a fact that
every member is a millionaire. AS to
the stability of the truck made, the
writer can say from personal knowl-
edge. that stability is its first name.
The firm spent thousands upon
thousands Of dollars on experiments
ton. First on the type of engine.
All well-known makes were tried.
The choice at last fell on the we'll
known Buda.
Then the bearings became a factor.
The choice finally went to the Tim
ken. other well-known units of
standard recognized value were added.
Judging from what the writer saw
in Chicago. it should not be difficult
to sell Master Truck from swivel
chair. The list of units that enter
into its construction is sufficient in
dorsement.
The new quarters of this company
give a production OF more than twenty
trucks daily.
Groups Of specialists, each one as
signed to a separate block, attend TO
one particular branch of the assembly
and nothing else, and in this manner
not one moment is lost.
The writer noticed particularly the
care used by workmen in assembling
various parts. Everything was tested.

Courageous Changes.
Looking back over those events
from this distance one is impressed
by the courage OF the CauI4.ac Com
pany' in changing from a slow speed
engine to a high speed engine, from
pistons that. weighed eight pounds to
pistons that weighed one pound. from
power. plant with separate units
to a unit power plant, from cone
clutch to multiple disc clutch; in
other words, from one type of car
TO an enti tirely different type. But one
is equally impressed by the engineer
ing genius that accompanied Cadillac
initiative@ and made II all possible.
Reviewing the career Of Mr.. White,
however, It. is evident that IL was
not by accident that he accomplished
the remarkable job Of creating an
engine. which has given so much sat-
isfaction and In which, after more
than three years OF use, no essential
change has been possible to make
IT a better engine than Il was the
way he originally built It -,.
