Columbus, Ohio, July 6.-Tne Will lard Dempsey fight motion pictures, taken at the ringside of the champion bout in Toledo Friday, were com p1eteiy rejected today by Maurice s. Hague, chairman of the board of three to review 'the picture ard and it is possible that the other two members ofv the board will vote to permitait being shown in Ohio. How ever this is in doubt as Mrs. Murray Miller, member of the board, de- clared tonight that it was entirely possible that she will reject the pie ture.S The other member of the board, |, C.. G. Willims. would not gay how he would act. .>-
 MT Hague declared that "suc.1 hu- man .butchery should not be shown where our boys and girls may see it.'
 He stated that as the film had bee n rejected persons or firms showing the picture in Ohio would be prose cuted, liable to fines from S1100 to $500 and a years Imprisonment.
 } Though it appears almost certain that the Willard-Dempsey pictures will not be shown in Ohio, it is prob able that they may be seen in other states, if passed by the respective state boards. This is; possible be- cause the mayor of Toledo in granting the permit for the fight termed it a boxing contest" A federal law per mits the interstate shipment of box ing contests but not prize fights"

 Upon arising the morning after the Glorious Fourth our new champion proved right away that he intends to be strictly original by announcing that he will retire for eight months and play vaudeville enga gements.

 Had Willard been himself instead of hopelessly dazed after the first round Friday he might have made a claim against Dempsey leaving the ring and knotty problem would have presented itself

He has been organ Nice, Miramas and Marseilles, and has been taken by army officials on tours of several re- 1ns.
 Plans for the win .ers of the A. F.. F. to tour America were discussed by MT. Lange with Ban Johnson, presi- dent of the American league, before the former left for France. Accord ing to tentative plans the A. F. F. champions would play in the ma jor Tea que parks and in the International and American association cities.
 There are two tentative plans for the proposed tour-one for games be- tween the A, E.. F. champions and the runners up and the other for ex- hibitions between the A. E.

 Lange hopes to have this plan ac- cepted by the army, if official ap- rroval is r"oessary. He evolved the idea himsc and says he can make all necessary arrangements in Amer ica after he gets his discharge from the SerYice.

Leon, France.-By mail) Though
the war is over. residents of the de-
vastated districts of France are daily
fleeing from bursts of shell and
shrapnel.
The new menace is caused by the
small grass and swamp fires which are
following an unusually dry period in
Northern France, which frequently set
off the shells that have been piled up
to be hauled away and exploded in
some safe place.
Major H. c. Greene, of Boston,
Mass, had thrilling ride and mar
rowly escaped hail of shrapnel on
his way from st. Quentin to Laon
this week as a result of one of these
fires. French woman working in a
field near Bouconville was painfully
gassed and considerable property dam
age has been done.
In the vast, desolate fields. thous-
ands of unexploded shells have been
picked up by German prisoners and
though there are details hauling them
away and setting them off in remote
valleys every day, there are still long
ranks or them everywhere. Sparks
