Secretary Of Nogales Chamber Of Commerce,

The following communication was

TO find out how the clerks of the Au-

TO the clerks but spent good portion
OF the day sitting around listening 20
the statements made to tourists. In
every case-and there were about
twenty visitors during the day-he
found that information was furnished
absolutely without prejudice to any

If the Automobile Club of Arizona
followed any other policy. they would
be cutting their own throats. Local

Scores Heavily
In Bronx Meet
Snappy Bout Enlivens Games
of the Manhattan Afh-
letic League at the Levi
sohn Stadium Yesterday
By Jack Masters

The first annual handicap games of
the Manhattan-Bron Athletic League,
held yesterday afternoon at Lewisohn
Stadium, resulted in a typical "Celtic
Park" field day for the athletes of the
Pastime A. C. Led by the whales"
which threaten to displace the New
York A. c. from the pedestal in the
weight department of the A. A. IT,, the
Brazilian Cross was carried to an ever
whelming victory, scoring total CT AZ
points.
The Morningside A. c., under whose
auspices the meet WAS held, put up a
finished second with 81 points. while
the Alpha P. C. C. was third, with IL
markers.
Until the field events begun the
full strength of the Pastime boys was
kept covered, but after the returns
were in on the 35-pound weight throw
ing contest, in which they carried
honors in each of the four places, it
was evident that the rest of the clubs
were merely in the games for work
out. The shot-put and the running
broad jump also threw many more
points in the direction of the veteran
organization, S. Lehrer, the Metropoli-
tan champion, easily winning the latter
event with leap of 81 feet 10 inches.
George Torporcer, the Morningside
a: c. star, was the only double winner.
The brother of specs" Torporccr, tf
baseball fame, lost the 120-yard low
hurdles from the 18-foot mark. peing
nosed out by inches for first place
after getting away to poor start. A
lew minutes later George made his
try in the running high jump and his
mark Of 6 feet inches stood as the
best performance of the day.
There were no features, and at times
the affair dragged somewhat, and pos
slbly this is what prompted one of the
athletes to start something more excit-
ing. At any rate, the spectators were
treated to a one-round bout at the con-
clusion of the heat of the 300-yard dash
that threatened to end in gang fight.
AT the finish of heat in the 300
yard dash Salem Crescent athlete
landed nicely placed blow on the
chin of another competitor represent
ing the Morningside A. c. The wind
blown athlete tumbled to the grass for
the count of nine, but the dusky one
who delivered the blow made the mis-
take of watching his fallen foe instead
of the onlookers, and terrific wallop
from a spectator sent him to his knees.
Several others in the crowd under
took to emulate Jack Dempsey before
order was restored and the games were
continued. The A. A. U. officials pres
ent said that an official investigation
would follow the disgraceful occur
renee, and it is likely that at least one
athlete will be given an extended vaca-
ton from amateur competition.

Jack Dempsey
On Wire EDGE
For Big Scrap
Champion, at 1914 Pounds,
Takes One of Final Hard
Workouts i'm Headgear

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., June 90
Jack Dempsey tonight is at the wire
edge of his training for the defense
of his title against Georges Carpenter
Mt Jersey City next Saturday after
noon. The champion ended his hard
work with 45-minute workout in his
open air arena this afternoon To-mor-
row he will rest and he will begin his
tapering-off process Tuesday.
The program mapped out for the
titleholder leading up to the day of the
contest calls for the last public box
ing on Wednesday. He probably will
not work with heavyweight sparrinp
partneSs in his final two days of box
ing, but will face smaller and lighter
opponents to increase his speed and
sharpen judgment and distance. He
also will cut down his road work to
long walks with an occasional sprint
to sharpen his wind.
Jack kearns, manager of the cham
plon, said that Dempsey never was in
better condition and that he could en-
ter the ring tomorrow.
Dempsey balanced the scales at ex-
actly 1914 pounds before he climbed into
the ring. He plans to take off three or
four pounds in the two final workouts.
Despite overcast skies and threat
enlng continuation OF rain, a crowd
OF about $500 persons to-day sat on
the rain-soaked pine seats of the arena
to see the champion maui four sparring
partners in seven rounds of boxing.
Dempsey's work was more impressive
to-day than yesterday, but the experts
thought he did not box with as much
speed nor with as much drive to his
punches as he has been showing in
earlier workouts. Manager Kearns
explained this, however, by saying that
he had cautioned him to work lightly.
Bull Montana, the Pacific Coast
wrestler, kept the crowd in an uproar>
in three-minute match with Dempsey
after the boxing.

Carpenter Imbued
With French Spirit
That Saved Verd,yr,

MANHASSET, N. Y, June 90
Georges Carpenter will go into the
ring at Jersey City next Saturday with
only one thing in mind, an invincible
determination to wrest the worlds
championship from Jack Dempsey.
"There will be no snap for Jack
Dempsey" says Gus Wilson, his trainer.
HE will have to be more than great
fighter to beat Georges. Never before
in his fighting career has Carpenter
displayed such determination as he
does to-day. When he talks of the
fight he grits his teeth and clenches
his fists and remarks: He shall not
beat me. Something tells me that
hardest blows will not find me and
those that he lands I know l can
stand"
The challenger attaches great deal
of sentiment to the hundreds of let
tiers he receives daily from war veter-
ans and other Americans in all walks
Of life.
"They want me to win," he said,
"they expect me to emerge from the
ring champion, and I will not dsap-
point them if every bone in my body
is broken"
Rain started falling early to-day at
the camp and the challenger was COM
PEELED to stay indoors until 8 o'clock.
Then he was sent to the woods with
Paul Journee. They were out for about
two. hours, running, skipping, shadow
boxing and performing acrobatics. The
rain started again and they found
shelter in the gymnasium, where
Georges spent fifteen minutes at calls
themes before lunch.
In the afternoon Wilson and Captain
Mallet took him for long cross
country walk. They returned about
4 o'clock and after rundown Georges
joined crowd Of friends on the lawn

Hutchinson Makes
Good His Prophecy
OF Golf Victory

HoCk HUTCHINSON proved
- much better prophet last winter
than he imagined himself to be.
After returning from Scotland in
February the Glenview Club profess
sional went TO Jacksonville, Fla,
where he competed in the Florida
open championship.
1t was there Jock was asked what
he thought about the American
teams chances abroad in the British
open meeting.
IF we go over there in a bunch
l believe we can win that title" was
the snappy rejoinder of the flying
Scotchman.
