Mr. Ford Ovyner |!

THOUGHT my Ford - as you
 perhaps did-for its economy. A It gets me places just as well as a bigger car would. And-oh boy!-when I check the expense against the other fellows, feel like pinning a medal on the old bus.
 Take my gas bill for instance!
 Pm getting almost twenty-five miles to the gallon now. Just think of it-100 miles for about $1.2O worth of gas. Boston to Springfield, for about One-quar- ter the railroad fare.
 Of course my mileage used to be about IS to the gallon of gas. FAM-O put the other 2 miles on for me.
 By the way, if you want to have better aIl-round Ford just buy an S-ounce can of FAM-O and slip it into your gas tank. It will not only give you about twenty five percent more mileage-itwiIl

Montreal is willing to let this forfeit

proposition from Sullivan's manager. An
honest referee would not have consented
to q draw decision.
In the bout between Jem Carney,
British lightweight champion, and Jack
McAuliffe, American lightweight cham
pion. at Revere Beach, Mass, November
16. 1887, the American was unable to
leave his corner to answer the call for
the seventy-fourth round and the ring
ropes were cut and the bout broken up.
The referee called the bout draw. al
though Carney had won the worlds
lightweight title by defeating McAuliffe.
Joe Choynski was hit by Kid Mccoy
after the bell ended the fourth round OF
bout at the Broadway A. c. January
IL, 1900. Choynski's back was turned
to Mccoy at the time the blow was
struck. the victim having dropped his
hands and turned to go to his corner
when he heard the gong that ended the
round. Just before Mccoy struck the
blow he had arisen from a knockdown
punch from Choynski and had received
the benefit Of a count that lasted twenty
seconds Mccoy was n beaten man
when he struck the foul blow, and he
realized it. But 1t was not in the plans
OF the handlers of the bout that Mccoy
should lose, and the referee took no
trary. Choynski, who had been seri-
ously hurt by the punch. was declared
by the referee to be the loser because
he was unable to respond to the bell for
the fifth round.
Joe Walcott and Tommy West boxed
at Madison Square Garden August 27,
1900. Walcott battered West all about
the ring for eleven rounds and then re-
fused to come out of his corner for the
twelfth. saying he had broken his arm
The referee accepted Walcott's word as
to the injury and did not even call
physician to examine the arm. Walcott
had no broken arm and stopped In pur-
suance of an alleged betting coup.
These examples show that the referees
powers should be restricted. There are
unquestionably honest referees, but many
OF them are not proof against tempta-
ton.

Of his corner for the seventh round of
a bout with Dominick McCaffrey at
Chester Driving Park, Cincinnati, Aug.
90, 1885, although the articles of agree

Boston boy so thoroughly that Sullivan
decided to postpone additional fighting
TO some other day
During the argument Ed Tate. the
referee, sneaked out OF the ring and
went to his home In Toledo. Two days
after the contest Tate sent out word that
Sullivan was the winner" 1t Is so
set down in the records and Is one OF
the most amazing 'irrevocable decisions"
in the history Of pugillsm.
BY refusing to answer the call for
the seventh round Sullivan disqualified
himself and lost title to McCaffrey. But

Sullivan also lost his title to Patsy
Cardiff on Jan. IS. 1887. Sullivan hurt
his arm in the sixth round and refused
to continue. This gave the decision and
