By Associated Press

Mexico City, July s.-President Oh regon has shown on numerous oc- casions lately that there is noth- Ing of the aloofness and unapproach- ability about him that characterized his predecessor, Carranza. He ire quently dimes in public with his wife and at one cafe where there is danc ing he may be found at times es- corting friend in promenade, al- though he does not dance.
 At recent wrestling match he aroused much applause when he quietly slipped into a box and was not at all backward in picking his man to win.
 He still refuses to use Chapultepec castle, the beautiful presidential nome, for residence. preferring to aVe In modest cottage nearby The castle, however, is frequently used Tor small parties and the circle Of Obregon friends is we'll entertained.
 The President disdains pomp and show and even the vfew state recep- tions he has held have been modest Always a good horseman, General Obregon may be seen almost any Sunday morning on the bridle path and on days of fiesta he frequently joins the automobile parade through Chapultepec park.
 At no time does he carry a body guard. not even on recent national holiday when rumors of revolution were rife. On that day he passed through thousands of spectators in an open carriage.

There was little delay in the usual preliminaries to a championship contest, and at 3:lS the gong called the men to the center of the ring for the championship battle. Thirteen minutes later the great international match, heralded throughout the world, was over, and Carpenter was being half carried half dragged to his corner by the ;police and his seconds. Helpless and groggy and with a blood -smeared face, he did not resemble in the slight est particular the super confident challenger of few minutes ago.
 Dempsey Unmarked
 Across the ring Jack Dempsey sat in his corner with not a mark on face or body. Francois Deschamps was ministering to his crushed idol as he sobbed and chattered in French When finally Carpentier could arise, he staggered toward the center of the ring and the police and ring of ficials seeing his condition, supported him, while Dempsey sprang from his stool and running to meet his de- feated opponent, grasped his hands anu conBralulateu nm on ms game ness and boxing ability.
 A moment later. the principals had left the ring, and the fight of the century" had become ring history, In the short period of the contest, 1t was shown conclusively that Carpen- tier in no way compared to Dempsey as fighting machine.
 GeOrges' Skill Fades
 Courageous. speedy of foot and with lightning-l rapier blow, he proved to be q clever boxer with moderate punch. Against the man Killing smashes of Dempsey, all his skill and speed faded away like fog before the sun. It was but another demonstration of cleverness when opposed to actual fighting.
 Summed up in few words. Car pentier was outclassed when Demp- sey persisted in fighting inside the Frenchman's flying arm. Had he elected to try and box with Carpen- tier. the end might have been differ ent But Dempsey is fighter, and fought the only way he knows how. Against that attack, Carpenter, game and skillful as he undoubtedly Is, was beaten man from the start.

 The assignment of the more com peient members Of the medical staff to wards for terminal and advanced patients with less efficient medical service in the wards occupied by the doubtful cases and by patients awaiting discharge.
 The physicians pointed out that there was great difficulty in recruit ing medical staffs for tuberculosis sanatoria because of the neglect of tuberculosis by medical schools in the past and because of the greatly increased demand for physicians with tuberculous training.
 On the whole the physicians stated that they believed that the United States public health service was en- titled to general commendation for the degree of efficiency attained un- der the conditions prevailing in the establishment of these institutions.
 During the next 20 years" the physicians stated, but two great medical problems will remain as the aftermath of, the war. One of these is that of dealing with mental and nervous cases and the other is the tuberculous problem"
 They asserted that the peak of the incidence of tuberculosis resulting fro mthe war has not been reached HOT will it be for a number of years to come.
 They predicted that If the federal government met the problem of the tuberculous soldier efficiently and at 1ke same time utilized it's opportuni- ties for the benefit of the civil popu- lation there would come, as an indi- rect result of the war, an awakening to the importance and magnitude of the tuberculosis problem which will prove of tremendous and lasting benefit to the nation.
