Ryan Should Force Dixon
 10 the Limit

Sailor" Dixon, Birming- hams crack middleweight box CT, will have no easy opponent tomorrow night when he meets Billy Ryan of Cincinnati in a ten-round bout at the B A c.
 Ryan while not one Of the country S leading middleweight boxers is a. fighter in every sense of the word. From the tor of his well-shaped head to the bot- tom of his sturdy feet he is built as a lighter should be. Supple muscles ripple up and down his arms, legs and back when he is in action. He is as 1.-the and as graceful as younf panther
 The Cincinnati fighter is tall, close to six feet in height, He has a good reach and is fast and shifty on his feet Ma ture has well fitted him phyically to be a wonderful fighter,
 And best of all, in the language of the vulgar, he has ''guts.' Since that me morial Jake Abel-Bnlv Ryan fight at Redwood park last summer, local fans have had the very best Of respect of Ryan. Ever since that time when Billy stood toe to toe with Abel and slugged away with one of the greatest fighters the south has known, never faltering when he got the worst of it. there has been no doubt that Billy Ryan is a man, d regular cave man. who can take his beating without flmchins
 And Abel didn't knock Ryan out The Cincinnati fighter stood up under terrible punishment and quit only when his sec- ords dragged him from the ring after tossing in the sponge. It was a wonder full exhibition of stamina and courage.

Sore at Severe Defeat, Bulldogs
 Ready for Work
MarshaII's GridderS Claim They Will Not Stand for Such Treatment
 From Anyone

Today the Howard Bulldogs are going to start working al a pace which has never been known around the Baptist campus before in the history of the school Reas- on for all Of this hard grind is that the Howardites cannot remember a defeat In the school history as bad as that which das dealt ont to them by the Center College machine Saturday. Although the locals expected defeat, they feel that their defensive should have been stronger than to let Center run up q score like 70 to a goose egg for the Howard boys.
 One reason for weak defensive in this game was the absence of Lee Head, the veteran end of the Bulldog aggregation. Head was out of the game on a4cO mt ot a tadly twisted ankle, received in q scrirnmage just two days before the Mar stall squad left to battle the Center eleven Besides his ability tC stop the rushes Of the opposing backs, rllis Ley can pass better than any one on the squad, and is therefore very useful VAen the Bulldogs begin to launch an aertaf attack Head is also q peach of a man in opening up a hole for the charging Howard backs. This coming Saturday the Howard boys are going over to Macon tu play Mercer. The Bulldogs, sore from two had defeats in succession, are vowln z to start a winning streak by beating the Mercer boys. This is not entirely imp3s- sible, but the Memcer team is proving to be one of dangerous caliber for most arybody this season, and the Bulldogs will have to shake foot and riish up a far better offensive than they have had iu the past three games Aovve all, the Howard qsuad will certainly nays 70 plug the gaps in the defensive, for in the two games in which they have been beaten so badly the sole trouble has teen the lack of a strong line.
 The Howard gang should be able 70 have a line that could stand on an even basis with most any team or rs crass, for they have in Afford, Wheeler, Carer. Head, Brindley, Shane and the twn Lam- berts material for a bunch -sf~-0 awards that would put the lines of many of the larger schools to shame cnce they gst to- Eether and get started
 A oefeat of l2O to is some defeat. put it is not enough to make the Bulldogs lose heart, and before many more days the news from the battles in which they participate ought to be different from what it has been.

FACES SAMELEXINSKY

Ca, pentier faces the same Levinsky, who was easy for Dempsey, and faces Levinsky at a time when he is some what removed from the condition which he knew when he battled the Utah mauler.
 If Carpenter is as great as Dempsey in tie knock 'em out" department, then he should finish Levnsky in no more than three rounds and perhaps dispose of him in something like two.
 Should the Frenchman do that he will be acclaimed truly great by Americans and entitled to mix it with the champion. But if the unexpected should happen if Carpenter is outponted. or even if he fails to dispose of Levinsky in the early fighting-it is extremely doubtful if he ever will be given battle with the cham pion. For a man who could not whip Battling Levinsky at this time is not reckoned as a meritorious challenger for the heavyweight champion of the world. MUCH AT STAKE
 Carpenters future, therefore, as a money getter in pugilism depends very larg gely upon his showing against the vet eran Levinsky. If he comes out of that match auded then he is in line to make heap of money within the next year or two, either on American, French or British soil. But if Levinsky should more than hold his own with the highly te uted trenchman, II means NerTlple setback for Carpenter,
 But I'm not worrying about mat. declared Carpenter in broken English. "l am told that he is fast and clever and that he is a splendid ring general, but that isn't going to worry me at all. am supremely confident that I can win from Levinsky and do il in way that will satisfy my skeptics.

E, JAMES J. coRnE1.r

Georges Carpenter wages his first battle OH American soil Tuesday night. and the entire sporting world will focus it's eyes upon it. Upon Carpenters showing against Battling Tevinslly will depend his chances of getting q crack at Jack Demp- sey and the worlds championship
 If Carpentier wns-and in easy fashion-then promoters will lose no time in trying To sign him up for clash with the mighty title-holder.
 The better the Carpenter showing against LeeinslSy. the greater interest will there be in Carpentier-Dempsey match. and the larger will be the purse offering.
 Ii took Jack Dempsey three rounds to dispose of LeVinskY two or three years ago. lt is an established fact that Demp- sey. had he so willed. could have stopped Levnskv in less time lie fooled around rather than fought Niciouslt iu the first two rounds.

OLD INDIAN TRAILS
- a1ssf .s.@-
na PARTY IS COMING
DIRECTOR OF ORGANIZATION
AND PARTY TO ARRIVE IN
DAWSON NOVEMBER 2s.

Hon. H. R. Walker, director of or
ganization of Americas longest high
way, the Old Indian Trails, will ar
rive in Dawson Sunday, November
18th, to present to our citizens the
story OF the Old Indian Trails. This
international highway, extending from
Vancouver, B. c., in the far north
west to Miami, Fla, in the extreme
southeast, cuts across the United
States diagonally and interesects ev-
cry other important national highway
in the United States, thus assuring all
towns and cities through which it ira
verses the patronage OF thousands OF
motorists annually 1t is not for the
purpose of talking good roads that this
distinguished party will visit our town,
but for the purpose of gaining our
support along with the support already
obtained by hundreds of other towns
along the route in making the Old In
dian Trails the most Travelled highway
in the country.
In the wake of the automobilist is a
steady stream of gold dollars, for Field
Secretary J. H. Baskin, who is also
in the party, states that the average
motorist spends $1,000 daily in his
travels, and this money goes to the
merchants and farmers along the route
he selects. The Old Indian Trails As
ISOLATION was organized for the pur-
pose of connecting up the old high
ways of the nation in the most direct
route from Vancouver to Miami and
once it is established, logged, marked
and eventually hundred per cent. paw
ed there will be volumes of enthrall-
ing literature written portraying the
wonders of this cross-country trail.
From the Siwash Indians of the Pa
cifc to the Seminoles of the Ever
g1ades in Florida the Old Indian spir-
its will guide the traveller from one
glorious vista to another. Practically
the entire route is either constructed
or now under construction, and it is
the belief of those interested in the
promotion of this route that it will
be complete by the year 1928. The sue
cess OF this movement, like the sue
cess of the Lincoln highway, Jefferson
highway and many others, depends on
the moral support given the associa-
ton by the local organizations along
the route.
