Managerial ExcelIence.

One thing that can be depended on
by those who go to the Jersey City bali
grounds on Oct. ~ to see Georges Car
pentier and Battling Levinsky In a con-
test Is that they will be able to witness
the bout under quiet, orderly conditions
and from the seat called for by the
coupons attached to their tickets.
The manner In which the O'Dowd-
Lewis bout was handled by the manage
ment of the Arena A. c., which stages
its entertainments In the ball grounds,
is a guarantee of like methods at the
big bout In fact. Jack Frost, the man.
ager Of the club. will redouble his efforts
to insure perfection In the arrangements
for the contest of Oct. IL.
AT the O'Dowd-Lewis bout there was
an entire absence of confusion and every
man who held reserved seat ticket got
the seat designated. The lines of ticket
buyers. were. kept in orderly condition,
and as no vehicles were permitted by the
.poiice to approach nearer than two
blocks to the ball grounds there was no
congestion in the streets about the
grounds. In addition TO these excellent
arrangements. for which the police were
largely responsible, the bouts were put
on promptly and run off on time.
Previous TO the bout between O'Dowd
and Lewis New York patrons of boxing
were filled with apprehension as they
journeyed to Jersey. especially to New
ark, but the demonstration of efficiency
by the Arena A. c. officials has inspired
renewed confidence. oH

ouency and force to the huzzas OF a de-

Is the treatment of Dempsey due to
the fact that he weighs fifty pounds
more than Leonard. or is the knocking
out of a nondescript lightweight less
reorehensible than the stopping of a
mediocre heavyweight?
Leonard has made chopping blocks of
Charley White. Pal Moran and some
others of the same class. and there has
not been a word of protest. He is
shortly to toy with an English light
weight named Johnny Sheppard. 1t is
well known that none OF the " named

tender hearted boxing commissioners of
Massachusetts who do not consider that
the conduct of Johnny Wilson calls for
even mild reproof are overcome with
horror at the suggestion OF a match be-
tween Dempsey and Brennan.
1t is high time that the boxing au-
thorities of this country abandon this
hypocritical attitude and treat the
worlds heavyweight champion with JUS
tice. Otherwise the opinion win be Gre

When John L. Sullivan was In his
prime he was permitted to travel about
the country offering $50 to any man who
could stand for four rounds before him,
and his victims for the most part were
novices. There was no outcry against
this procedure by Sullivan, and the at

A movement is under way for the or
ganization OF a national body to control
boxing in the United States. the ultimate
object being International uniformity OF
rules the action Of one member of the
body to be respected by all others.
The chief object OF the proposed new
association is to make impossible the
commission of an offence against the
rules in force in one section OF this
country. or in one country a member of
an international body, and the escape
OF the offender from just punishment.
AS the case stands. a boxer, promoter or
manager may violate the rules OF n
boxing commission in the West and
while suspended by that body may con-
tinue to box and receive compensation
from clubs in other parts of the country
For example. the boxing commissions Of
Minnesota. Michigan and Wisconsin do
not respect the rulings OF the New York
commission, and vice versa, with the
result that a boxer may commit O Sc
rious offence In New York which rules
him out of this State. but may go to
Wisconsin or Minnesota and box with
impunity and profit.
A man who holds a title and boxes
under a license issued by the New York
commission is compelled TO defend his
title to decision. but he can go to New
Jersey, wisconsin, Minnesota or Michi-
gan and box a decisionless bout in
which he cannot lose his honors unless
knocked out.
1t Is with the purpose of remedying
these faults that the move for a ma
tional body has been started. and there
is small doubt that in the course OF time
there will be central organization in
control of the sport.
Although the various State boxing
commissions have done good work in
behalf of boxing, these organizations
are altogether too dependent on politics
TO assure lasting good results. The ex-
perience of New Workers. with State
boxing laws has been sad. and while the
present commission has made an ex-
Ecellent start its retention Of control de-
Ponds largely on the outcome of cleo
lions.
Therefore the formation of national
body appears to be the real solution of
the problem
This idea was expressed in the organi-
cation of the Army. Navy and Civilian
Board Of Boxing Control. and quite np-
propriately that organization, which has
done so much to put boxing on a solid
basis in this State. has taken the initia-
tive in the new project

In the plans for n national body. The
subject has been brought to the attention
OF the Presidential candidates, and also

Gress. 1t is not unlikely to take the
form OF national legislation for the con-
'roi OF all branches Of professional sport

 If we had been called upon to send our men on the battlefield in 1917" said the general. "it would have been calamitous. The country would never have outlived the shame it would have brought upon us.
 q do not urge a larger army now" he continued, ours is big enough. but We do need an army consisting of a number of highly trained units that can be rapidly expanded and filled with partially trained men, that can he whipped into an effective fighting force in a brief time.'

Jennings to Enter
 Democratic Lists
 for Mine Inspector

As a possibility for Democratic sue cessor to G. H. Bolin, state mine in spector, residents of Cochise county are putting forth the name of Harry Jennings, who is not only well known throughout the county but has a host of Democratic friends at the capital who would like to see him pull down the job.
 It is said that Jennings has laid the foundation for a vigorous cam paign at the primaries regardless of whether Bolin decides to run for a fifth term or not With Tom Foster and Edward Massey already announc- ed as avowed candidates for the po- sition, Jennings would make a third candidate from Bisbee. which might cause a division of the vote of this county to the advantage of Ed. O'Ha- gan of Ray and John Harper of Globe.
 Jennings was a member of the fourth legislature and won some prominence through sponsoring the boxing bill which is now a law.
 Jennings was not to be found yes terday to obtain a statement directly from him as to the position he has taken in the matter.

Blinding Fog in Douglas Is Cause
 of Car Collision

An extremely heavy fog, an unus- ual phenomenon for this section, set tied over Douglas yesterday morning making that city so dark that it was impossible to see across the street, and causing a head-on collision be- tween two street cars on G avenue besides several other traffic acci- dents.
 Joe Andrews, motorman on one of the cars, was badly bruised but not seriously injured. Both of the street cars were badly battered but none of the passengers hurt. One car carried many school children on their way home.
 A Ford truck was almost demolish- ed and c. N. Posten, owner and driv- CT, painfully injured when it collided with a large army truck on the state highway opposite the depot. This crash was also caused by the dense fog. Posten's injuries were not se- riouS

Had there been student body organization in the Bisbee High school when Bruce was student he would have undoubtedly received the gold E, the greatest honor a student can receive from the school. He took an active part in all school affairs and was a natural and well-liked leader. He played football every year he was in school and was the teams captain one year.

We were very successful, getting among other things three giant eland, which are great prizes. We worked hard; Ker- init of course worked hardest, for he is really first class walker and run ner; I had to go slowly. but l kept at it all day and every day. Kermit has really become not only an eX- cellent hunter but also a responsible and trustworthy man, fit to lead he managed the whole caravan and aft CT hunting all day he would sit up half the night taking care of the skins.

BUENOS AIRES, Jan. 15.-Explain- ing the mysterious manner in which wheat stacks have been burned in Cordova, dispatches from that pro vince say Agrarian strikers are using magnifying glasses to set the stacks afire. The glasses are placed in po- sition during the night, the dispatches assert, and catching the rays of the sun in the daytime, produce combus- tion.
