ut what's that to do with me?' asks
ioung Bowen. He'll find me some
body else again Tuesday. 1t won't be
any one-round sleep for me, either.
Guess / can take care OF myself"
The tip is out that the ten-round
contest between Bowen and Rice Will
be sizzler from start to finish. Rice
can hit. He showed that against
Ahearn last week. Bowen. too, car
ries a hefty kick. He put Battling
Turner. OF Philadelphia, to sleep at
left hook to the Jaw.
Bowen Has Supporters.
Since coming from New Castle, Pa,
Young Bowen has made many friends
by his good work at Ardmore. At
Alexandria. where he first worked in
the shipyards. Bowen's hackers arc
numbered well into the hundreds. He
now has quite as many in the Steel
Plant who are willing to put up their
hard-carned simoloons on the chances
of his victory over the Baltimorean.
Another big favorite with local
fans will be seen in the semi-fnal.
when Chick Holbrook climbs through
the ropes to tackle Harry Rice, OF
New York. These midgets are to
travel six rounds and this scrap
should be a hummer, as neither backs
up under punishment.

of Frankie Mann. fought a great bout

 MT. Story's efficiency as a public ser want was commended to all public off, cials and the following statement was incorporated with the resolutions:
 Arthur L. Story, whose death occur red recently at his home in Hartford. served this bar and community most faithfully as a deputy sheriff for more than twenty years, and then resigned from this. position to take up service as deputy on the state police, and remain ed in said service twelve years. com mencing with the formation of said state police department, and continuing said service until his death
 Tt can be said that no sheriff of Neu London county ever had a more loyal ol more faithful deputy than said Story lie was most courteous, and always eff clent in the discharge of his official d,I. ties. Seldom, if ever, did prisoner es. cape from his custody, and this canno be attributed to good luck" for he wa, always so careful that an escape wa, made almost impossible.

 OF OUR WAR TIME ARNiN

Washington. NQv. 2i.-Final d4tai,s of the demobiization of America's wartime army are being made by Adjutant Gem eral Harris in his annual report to Sec- retary Baker made public today. The adjutant general points out tha in the year ending November 15, 1919 q total Of 2, 422.233 officers and men were returned to civilian life. and adds:
 More than 65.0OO more officers and men were discharge1 from service during the first twelve weeks of the rectnt de- mobilization than were discharged from the Union army during the entire Civil war demobilizltion period Of one and one half years: more than twice the total Civil War number were discharged with in the first six moAths and more than three times that number were discharged within the first eight and one-ha,i months of the recsn mt demobiii5stion. Tho comparison is further accentuated when it is considered that the greater part ol the world war emergency army had 10 bC transported thousands of miles across the ocean prior to it's demobilization. whicl was moreover. conducted throughout !n a disciplined and orderly manner. iL marked contrast with the procedure p-c- vafling at the close of the Civil war. nc man being separated from service duria' the recent demo5ilzation until every necessary detail inciuGing a careful physical examination. had been proper.I accomplished"
