Not a chance did we miss To holler and hiss The fielders who booted the ball, We ragged 'em all season, But, oh, what a difference this fall! With footballers busy, It sure makes us dizzy To follow the pigsl>in in flight, For everyone's booting. And anyone hooting Would get the or razzberry right.
 Hope the pronunciation battle isn't fought all over again when Georges comes over for his mixup with Tom Gibbons.
 Bids will be opened early in the summer on the next world series.
 QUERY
 In hand with five aces, what's the logical play? (Ans.)-Call- an undertaken.
 Wonder how the fans would like bout with Charlie White as one of the principals? With the Chicago Hebrew so close, it might be well to consider him in Phoenix. Charlie is willing-aH that is needed is an op- poHenC ana the promoter WllIlnS- ness to stage the scrap.
 Would it be a box office attraction? :? Did Jack Dempsey draw at Boyle's Thirty Acres?

It's the bad news, it is, for any battler. when his manager, with eX- tended chest, comes strutting up and smacks the young contender on the spine and smilingly says: Well, kid, I gotcha matched for the 25th, with Tommy Gibbons"
 For it's always the some monot- ouous story in those fights.

 Who can stay with Gibbons?
 Possibly two men-Jack Dempsey and Carpenter. We doubt if Bren non or Miske could do it. Willie Meehan, the fat boy who stayed with Dempsey, missed the crowd after the first round of his fight with Gibbons

SENDING BILLY ALGER AGAINST CHARLIE WHITE HA[TS CAREE
 OFBEST ARIZONA RING PRODUCT

Pass City sports clamored for a scrap between Billy Alger and Charlie White and even conceded Billy a chance to stay the limit against the tough Chicago Hebrew and now these same sports are will ing to bury Alger among the anna teurs who climbed too rapidly and in the promoters greed for the almighty dollar FAILED.
 Alger is a good boy but over rated. His showing against Carter did not warrant bout with White. The Carter who fought Alger in Phoenix was far from the Carter who fought Chet Neff, Eddie shannon, Otto Wallace, Young France and Billy McCann, but the most ardent Carter fan would hesitate before giv- ing Carter a chance to beat White.
 Of all the lightweight contenders in the game today Charlie White still stands head and shoulders above the crowd. He is a money maker-but in his fight for the gate receipts he has never stalled to make a home town champ look good for return bout. White goes in to finish his opponent and finish him just as quickly as he can. White might have stalled seven or eight rounds with Alger and boost the kids stock for another bout and not run any risk whatever. But White is business man and a fighter and he performs his work faithfully and to the min ute. 1t matters not to White whether his opponent is good. or bad if pos sible he will stop him in the first round That is one reason why Charlie White is the biggest box of flee attraction in the fight game to- day. outside of the title holders.
 The following article written by the Sports Editor of the Fl Paso Times will make interesting reading for Phoenix fans:
 "Alger resigned. White won, Class plus experience, self possession, poise, perfection of boxing form, sheer science and mental superiority con quered
 ..Three rounds of fighting and less than one minutes reflection on the part of Alger and the thing was over.
 "Alger lacked that mysterious aual- ity called class" he lacked style, head work and a cool. calculating plan of attack and defense. In short he lacked everything.
 White had everything, He was the personification of qualities that Aiger didn't possess. Greatest Of these. perhaps, was experlenee.
 "Subtracted from these were

 traits which are inherited and
 not acquired. In a word. White
 has brains. He is "business
 man" fighter. He did a business
 like job on Alqer and he didn't
 make an unnecessary move in
 doing it.
 There was no lost motion in Whites performance. His only thought was to protect his own prec- ious anatomy from injury and to in- flict the maximum of punishment or his opponent.
 His supreme motto was get the money: get it quickly and satisfy the fans of the southwest so that he can box in these parts again.
 "Alger hasn't yet arrivedi He has learned that there is no short road to eminence in the profession of pu- cilism. He realized for the first time in his life that 1t is a long long road that leads to the cham

During the time Gibbons is in the ring before the bell gets 'em away. he pays little or no attention to his opponent. He seldom smiles unless it is to greet some friend at the ring side. He does no ,alking.
 Before leaving his corner to an sw er the first gong he always shakes hands with Eddie and they wish each other good luck. The seconds remove the chairs and from that time on do not en CT the ring. They're used only to put the chair up and the wa ter bucket in place, always staying on the ground. For Gibbons and Kane decided long ago that flaming be- tween rounds did more harm than good.
 Gibbons is one of those likable sort of chaps-the Dempsey type-a great big smiling. good hearted boy.
 Hes matched to met Carpenter this winter for the light heavyweight championship, and Tex Eickard fol- lowing this scrap, probably will give him crack at Jack Dempsey's heavyweight crown

MARRIED THREE DAYS;
 WHERE IS HIS WIFE?

ROME, June 27. - Count Elias Tolstoi, a grandson of the famous Russian writer, has just arrived here after journey through China and Japan, having escaped from the Bolshevik. In 1918, after three days of married life, he had to flee from Moscow because he was con- demned to death and now he is in ignorance as to whether his bride is dead or alive.
 He joined Admiral Kolchaks forces and fought against the Bol- sheviki was stricken with typhus on three occasions and was nursed in the American hospital at Omsk.
 He said that his aunt, Catherine, is in prison at Moscow and another aunt, Tatiana, is servant of Bolshevik family.
 Tolstoi predicts the sure and in evitable death of Bolshevism either through demobiization or starva ton of the army. The rations of the soldiers, he said, have been re- duced to a quarter of a pound of bread and one-eighth of a sausage. He added that Russia could not nowadays produce even a needle.
