"a. 600 ACRES MORE OF
VALLEY TO De DRAINED

Harry Asay was In Alsmosa
Monday getting signatures to a
peti,ion to the county commits.
,ioners Of Rio GrSnds countyto
call an election to authorize
bonds for the Bowen drama &c
district. This district will re.
claim eight or ten thousand
acres Of the richcst land In tho
valley.
The following committee
representing the petitioners,
have had the matter in charge |:
Harry Assay. Charles A. White.
Charles Mahl. James A. Bond
and |. E. Merriman. Mr.. Asay
told the Journal that practical.
Is all Of the people owning land
under the proposed system
were in favor Of the PROPOSE.
ton and that the petition would
soon be ready to present to the
Rio Grande county commission.
ers to be approved after which
would come the bond election.
1t Is practically certain that
there will be no opposition
worthy Of mention to the bond
issue.
Upto Monday the following
land owners had signed the pe-
tition for the Bowen district:
|. r. Merriman. Dwight Goff.
Bruce Bogart. F. E. Goff. w. A.

White. J. L. Hilliard. Andrew
Kimball, C. B. West.
The lands Of several Of those
above named signers Of the pe-
tition do not need drainage at
all. but the owners are far
sighted and broad minded
enough to realize the fact that
draining the lands that need
drainage will also enhance the
value Of adjacent lands wheth-
er they need drainage or not.
Mr.. Asay says that the esti-
mates Of the engineer, Mr.. Reil-
ly of Monte Vista. place the
cost Of the system at approxim-
ately six dollars an acre. But
If it runs over this figure no one
will seriously object for the
land after it is drained will be
worth a great deal more than it
is now.-Alamosa Journal.

McGOORTY KNOCKED OUT.
Beckett Puts American to Sleep in
Seventeenth Round.

LONDON. September 3.-Eddie Nc.
Goorty was mighty game. but he
couldn't stand up to the crashing at
tack of Joe Beckett, the young Eng
lish heavyweight champion. so the
American veteran went down and out
in the seventeenth round of their
scheduled twenty-round battle here
yesterday afternoon.
Beckett surprised his best friends
by the speed and precision of his at
tack. He fioored McGoorty repeat
edly in the later rounds.
The American did his best work in
the sixth and tenth periods. but
youth was on Beckett's side in the
later sessions, when McGoorty. old
timer that he is, began to lose
strength Beckett's best blows were
left and right hooks to the jaw. and
his heavy artillery foored the Yank
in the twelfth. thirteenth and six
teenth- 1t was obvious when the
seventeenth began that McCsoorty
could not win, and the best his
friends hoped for was that Beckett
had tired and would be unable to put
him away.

INTERNATIONALLY GAMES REVIVAL
EXPECTED WITHIN NEXT YEAR

NEW YORK, September within
year great revival of interna tional
sports competition with the United
States competing against Great Brit
ain, Canada. France. Belgium, Italy
and Australia will be under way.
There will be contests between these
countries in practically all branches
of sport. with the rivalry between
America and England reaching it's
height when the historical play for
polo championship and the tennis
play for the Davis cup is held.
The water sports will also get their
place in the limelisht. for America
plans to send its premier oarsmen to
London next summer in an endeavor
to capture'the diamond sculls.
There are many brilliant oarsmen in
this country. but probably the great
est is Jack Kelly. the popular Vesper
star of this city Kelly is a marvel in

Thames for the greatest prize in row.
ing. the diamond sculls.
America will transport its best polo
lists next year. No effort is being
made to play for the polo crown this
year. While the United States has
many brilliant players and ponies
ready for a fling against the best in
the world. officials Of the polo asso-
citation realize that England, as re-
suit of long years of war, during
which it lost many of its greatest
polo players, must have more time to
recognize its athletic family.
England took the polo title in 1914,
just before the outbreak of the war.
and has been the hoid-over champion
since.
The international meetings have al
ready commenced on the tennis courts,

WANT N|NE-GAME SERIES
National Commission Is Sponsor
for Proposed Change in
World Title Battles.

CHICAGO, September 3.-Because
of the unprecedented demand for
world series seats this fall, the ma
tional base ball commission has rec
commended that the series be increased
to nine games instead of the usual
seven. The proposal was sent to the
club owners of the American and Ma
tional leagues for immediate ratifica :
ton.
Under the proposed plan the rival
CLUBS would share in the receipts of
the first five games instead of the first
four as in former years. The victo-
rious team would have to take five
of the nine contests to win the world
championship. Heretofore the cham
plonship was decided when one of the
clubs won four of the seven contests.
The players would divide their appor-
toned share of the five-game receipts
on 90 and 40 per cent basis, 50 per
cent going to the winning club.
August Hermann, chairman of the
commission. explained that the recon-
mendation was made for no other rea-
son than to benefit the public by per-
mltting larger number of persons to
see at least one of the games. Al
though the Cincinnati club has not
clinched the National League pennant
CHdii man hermann, who also is pres
1dent of the Reds, said he had received
$4,000 applications for seats outside
CT Cincinnati
There are more than 100. 900 per-
sons in Cincinnati who want to see
the series, and it will be an impossi-
Dlilty to accommodate a third of them
under the seven-game plan" he said
me city is base ball wild. 1t seems
that the entire south is planning on
coming to Cincinnati if we are so for
tunate as to win the National League

for several English and Australian
racquet Wielders are now playing in
the national championship at Forrest
Hills. preparatory to going to the
Antipodes fer the Davis cup matches.
America, however lost none of it's
leading tennis players during the war,
while the other countries have suf-
fered considerably, so the United
States Lawn Tennis Association has
passed up this year, but will challenge
for the Davis cup in 1920.
Play will be revived on the cricket
field and Sir Thomas Upton. the vet
eran yachtsman, has challenged
America to yacht race. which will
most likely be staged next summer
Boxing, too. will be revived inter-
result of competition in the various
allied armies during the war some
good boxers were unearthed.
England has long been a popular
boxing country and SO has France
Belgium and Italy are also taking to
the boxing game and it won't be long
before both of these countries pro-
duce high-class fighters.
Great Britain is now priming it's
newest heavyweight champion. Joe
Beckett. for a crack at Jack Demp-
sey's worlds championship. Beckett
can have the chance any time he
wants and it may be that he will be
seen lighting in this country next
spring or summer
France has the wonderful Georges
Carpenter to uphold its heavyweight
claims, and several very good smaller
men for the other classes. Aside from
Beckett. England has the marvellous
fyweight Jimmy Wilde. who has beat
en- several good American boxers, and
Jimmy Basham is very good welter-
weight
In the boxing game Australia will
figure high. for the ring game is just
about the most popular sport in the
