Carpenters whole plan OF campaign
Is based on this idea. He will start
trying TO land the knockout from
the instant the gong rings. The gen.
eral idea Is that Dempsey will try
to do exactly the same thing.
The sporting element is planning
upon an unprecedented migration to
New York to see the mix-up. Ae-
cording to present indications France
will send more adherents to cheer
Georges than have ever Travelled
such a distance on a similar errand.
Meanwhile Georges has not been
content 10 rest upon his laurels as
Europe's premier boxer. He has
been busy gathering the pounds,
kronen. psetas. guilders and francs
that go with the laurels. In the
past two months Carpenter with
his sparing partner has toured Eng
land. Sweden. Denmark. Spain and
Algeria, slammlng his hardy sparring
partner with one hand and raking
In the coin with the other. His
friends claim that he has amassed
more than any other European fight
er ever dreamed of getting-enough
so that Georges isn't worrying wheth-
er the Germans pay or not
Likewise with characteristic Gal
lie foresight Georges is sailing away
the accrued income in his aluminium
business and coal mines In Lens. The
net result is that Georges won't
have to worry about the wolf at the
door II he should happen TO wake up
July 2 with Dempsey standing over
him.
Unlike most fighters with his pres
tige, Carpenter isn't trying to cut
much of a figure in the well-known
night life of Paris Only occasion
ally is he seen in the all night joints
in the Rue Caumartln ard even then
he keeps training hours and dallles
little with the sparkling. wines.
At present, Carpenter is figuring
on retiring after the little affair OF
July 2-win or lose-and devoting
himself to his business interests.

City's Ice Supply
Nearly Exhausted

According to one dealer here, this
city will be without ice inside of three
weeks unless some can be purchased
from outside sources and there seems
to be no surplus for sale in other cit
les. The cause is an unusual shrink
age due to the fact that last winter
was mild one and much of the ice
was soft when stored.
One local concern has advertised
that it will be able to supply only the
business houses and to private fami-
lies only in the case of sickness The
local dealers have been to other cities
in attempts to buy ice with no great
success. w. E. Colby made such a
trip and returned reporting that he
could not buy a pound of ice.
- Mr. Colby. asked how the situation
was with him and he said that under
ordinary circumstances he would have
enough for all his customers but with
the aclls received from the customers
of other dealers, because of the in
ability of the latter to supply. his
supply would be short lived He in

bies and for sick cases the preference
saying that he would take care of
these cases even if he had to let all
Others go and his supply will be dis
tributed if ordinary conditions pre-
vail as far as it will go among all

TRAFFIC MIDDLE
EMPHASIZES NEED
OF BETTER SYSTEM

A block of traffic at the corner Of
Temple and Main streets Thursday
forenoon was Of sufficient length to
cause one to wonder what would
happen if a fire alarm should be
rung in and the fire truck would
need a right of way down Main
street. A man had driven in from
Oakland and parked his car on Tenn
pie street on the right hand side near
Oakland electric car which was
waiting there for the Main street
cars to pass. A man drove up Main
street and turned up Temple street
with a double team and as he could
not drive between the autom Obile
and the car, he stopped, Next came
grocery wagon and the driver
stopped behind the double team. a
big limousine then came up Main
Gerry wagon and directly across the
Fairfield electric line tracks on Main
street and then came an express
team up East Temple street and got
in line with the automobile. Mean
while the man with the double team
looked in vain for the driver of the
Oakland automobile and after
while he took chance and drove to
the left of the electric car and went
up Temple street for ashort dis
lance. The grocery wagon followed
suit and the express team cut in
ahead of the automobile and fol-
lowed and lastly the automobile went
up the left side of the street. Pretty
soon a laundry team came along and
the driver also started up the left
SIDE of the electric car only to face
an express team, the same one that
had just gone up, which was now
coming back This made it neces-
sary for one team to halt until the
other could go. along and finally the
electric car moved down Main street
to get a fresh start for Oakland.
Twenty minutes passed by and the
automobile that caused all the trou-
BILE was still parked beside the Kel-
ley book store and no sign of an
owner abont. But the object lesson
was good one il ii only leads to the
solving of the long discussed cues
ton of how traffic shall be governed
at the corner of Temple and Main
streets.
