The diverting of steamers bringing
1000 aliens to the United States from
New York City to Boston brings the
problem of public health more closely
home to New England people. There
is nothing to indicate that any of the
passengers of those diverted steamers
are suffering from the dreaded typhus,
or any other contagious malady; but
there is the ever present possibility
that disease of this nature may be un-
covered or that incipient cases may get
through the examination of the pas
sengers. 1t goes without saying that
the utmost precaution will be taken at
the port of Boston.

KILBANE TELLS HOW DIFFERENCE HIN
 FOOTWORK MAY DECIDE BIG GO
BY JOHNNY kILBANE
 Featherweight Champion

A fighter who misses blow should always be in such a position that he is immediately ready to deliver an- other. To be in such shape he must always have one foot flat on the ground That's where a surprise may come in the battle between Dempsey and Carpenter at Jersey on July 2.
 For Monsieur Georges isn't the type of fighter who believes in anchoring his feet anywhere in particular, least the Frenchman is always in the air. balanced on the tips of his toes, as the accompanying photograph shows. The drawings of Georges flying feet were made from action photographs of the fighting Frenchman.
 On the other hand Champion Jack is the type of fighter who keeps him self always set. He has a wicked wallop but it isn't necessary for him to go up on both toes 10 send it over His ability to follow up one blow with another is demonstrated by his one two punch that laid away Willard
 There isn't any doubt but what Carpentier gets plenty of speed into his jabs and hooks with his "toe- hold' system, but let me say this:
 Should. Jack duck into one of Car pentier's blows and should the Frenchman's arm slip over the cham pion's shoulder, while he's balanced on his toes, nothing in the world would keep him from toppling over forward after it.
 I don't mean just that, either, foi there is ONE thing. That's Demp- sey's fist. A right or left to the jaw which he would be very likely tt collide with, would toppie the French man in the opposite direction.
 For Georges, in going up on hi. toes, throws himself dangerously oper to an opponent who is quick enougl to catch him during the seconds h, | is off balance. He'll find Dempsey clever, enough boxer. to take advan tage of just such an opening. too. Carpenter figures he adds stean
 to his punches by going up on hi | toes when he sends them over. It l true that all punches that have an, real power are delivered from tn toe-but not from two toes. One foo

Bill Lewis. local trainer and authority on track and field sports. has been watching Max and Coola in their Phoenix races and he recommended them 10 the track committee. The chairman of the meet wired for the boys on Lewis recommendation and offered to pay one-half of their expenses on the trip Lewis wired that the boys would be a sensation in the running events and his word guaranteed their accept ance in both events. If sufficient funds are raised. Mir. Lewis may ac- company Durant and the athletes tc Pasadena. MT. Gardner stated last night that he was ready to pay the i expense of sending Max to Pasadena and would donate to fund to send Durant and Coola- There is no doubt the expense fund win be raised al once and the three win leave for tho coast early next week.
