It was also ruled that no club

consent Of President Tearney. The
argument was advanced by the
Bloomington boss over the fliyver

ance was scarce at 81 a head.

sure all the Islanders has been
viewed f2v0rably by all the other
clubs. It will be such an expen-

to incur additional drains as the
result Of injuries to players.
The consensus is that the ex-
penses this year will surpass those
Of all previous seasons, and the
various clubs are determined to ad-
here strictly to the closest economy
That accounted for the $1.75 nose

Can't blame the state prosecutors
for their action in dropping the

state legislatures have had ample
time to enact adequate laws, etc,
for the convenience of such prose-

mort legion card in the old
ifm0fy.
Dunnie has been training assid-

trends predict that he will win
needily by a knockout They do
at expect their favorite to be de-
nred seriously by the fast-step-
,he Goldman entry, who stopped
lie weakened Joe Sullivan of Pc
ola at the last show.
The boys should start At a fu-
rous pace as both are masters Of
i,st boxing. Donahue will pack
he winning punch and it will mean
victory il he can land it effectively.
they all point to tho fact that Sui
Ivan dropped WEIGH when they met
several weeks ago and had the Chi
ugoan in a bad way. That, they
claim, indicates that Johnny will
win handily.
WEIGH Confident, Too.
But WEIGH is not nonplussed by
Tie reports emanating from the
Donahue camp. He and his hand
lefs declare that Donahue is slated
ior a surprise. They. too, are
harping on the knockout stuff as
the outcome to be dealt by WEIGH.
Donahue will be the general ia
vcrite on account of his enviable
record since his comeback. Johnny
Is boxing faster and hitting harder
than when he won all the way from
Jack Racer at the last Show. His
friends can see nothing but the
near-championship class for him,
WEIGH will have a lot to show

The semi-windup artists, Tommy

WESTERN CANADA
 HAS BUMPER CROP

G8y International , News ScrvIce)
 CALGARY. Aug. 1O.-Acreage plant ed to wheat in Alberta is estimated at from 15 to B per cent greater than last year. This it is pointed out, does not mean that the acreage devoted to all crops is that much greater than last year The acreage planted to oats and other coarse grains has fallen off iu the same ratio that the wheat acreage has in creased
 Two reasons are advanced to ex- plain the increase in wheat and the decrease in coarse grains. The chief reason is that the heavy oat crops last year have created a local surplus. As a rule the farmers have sowed only enough oats, barley and other coarse grains for their own requirements. Another reason is that the season was from two to three weeks earlier than last year and farmers had plenty of time to get all the wheat they wished planted in good time to insure it's ripening before the coming of frost,
 From all points throughout west ern Canada growing conditions are reported to be the best in years Wheat in the first days of July from eight to twelve inches above ground. So far there has been nothing to cause the slightest damage.
 Farm labor is reported plentiful, with wages ranging from $40 to $50 a month. Pasturage is abundant and cattle are thriving

 BOSTON, Aug. 10.-Profiteers in ice cream here a few days ago found themselves in much the same posi-. tion as that occupied by General Gage, British commander of Bos. ton at the time of the Revolution. The children of the city marched in what was to them a monster parade in protest against the prices charged for soda and ice cream History tells of another parade, probably the only other organized march of pro. test held here by children, when the youngsters of generations ago marched up the same street to re, quest permission from General Gage to slide down School street.
