Paris, May 0.--After postponing his
departure from Paris several times:
Jack Dempsey finally made up his mind
to break away from the attractions OF
the French capital and leave for Lon
don this afternoon. He spent the morn.
Ing shopping and returning the visits
of friends. Among his purchases were
several quarts Of exotic perfumes.
''l'm glad it's all over" he sud, as
he started to pack his trunk.
II don't want to stay In London be-
yond Saturday. II must get back to
the United States and start training to
meet willard and all other comcrs."
Asked who he thought would win
the coming fight in London. the cham.
pion said he was a good friend of both
Carpenter and Lewis and would like
to see both make good showing, but
from a selfish standpoint he would pre-.
fer to see the Frenchman win, as q
match with him would make a much
better and more popular one for the
titleholder.
"As a matter of fact" he added,
Carpenter is much the filter man and
ought to be able to walk away with the
fight. II he does, will sign up with
him Immediately and meet him in Lon.

JAR-HEAD FAILS
To SHINE ON
POLO FIELD
Mules Lead Army Officers
Merry Lives in Unique
Sport at Humphreys.
BY X. ID. THOMAS,
Wow.

X-o.E-l3T-Oo.. WOW.
There, in a nutshell, is a profound
treatise on the disposition OF the
mule as delivered by army engineer
officers at Camp HUMPHREYS who.
tomorrow, will engage in polo com.
bat mounted each upon steed
with the strength of the horse ana
the sure-footedness of an ass.
These two qualities. said to he e..
gendered in the hybrid in question,
seemingly would fit him well
for duty on the polo field. but, no;
they do not He lacks something
necessary or possesses something
out of whack with the combination
of qualities that makes a polo mount.
The rare sporting event to be held
tomorrow was postponed from last
week along with the field day pro.
gram at Camp Humphreys, OF which
the polo game WAS TO be feature.
1t is AN i'll wind that blows no
one good, and the bad weather that
caused the field day postponement
was counted as such a gust by the
Camp Humphreys poloists.
They thought to use the extra days
to teach their steeds the tricks of
polo. Instead, they have used them
TO become educated to the tricks OF
the mule.
The mule is smart. He is dull
He is gentle. He is rambunCtious
He is lovable He can arouse bitter
hatred.
This the Camp Humphreys Off
GERS have learned and more. They
know that the mules outstanding
characteristic is that consistently he
will do the thing least desired by
his human master; that he has a.
uncanny faculty of divining his
masters desire and that he has a
mental process that surpasses all
understanding.
AS the eventful day approaches.
it appears more and more that in.
stead of polo contest at Camp
Humphreys there will be an inter.
esting battle between man and mule.

WANT HARDING
AND KINGS
TOPLAY
European Rulers Too Busy Jug
Cling Crowns to Come Over
For Golf Match.

Golf, which has become interna-
tional in recent years, can increase
it's scope, in the opinion of J. N.
Stewart, general passenger agent of
william Wrigley, jr.'s, Catalina
Island.
Recently Secretary of Labor Da.
Wis was a guest OF Mr.. Wrigley's
at the island course and estab-
lished new driving record of 2S5
yards on the fifth hole. President
Harding is an enthusiastic golfer
and Stewart comes forward with
this novel idea:
1t would certainly look as though
there are some star players around
the Capital and II wouldn't be a
bad idea to put a few OF them
against the crowned heads of Eu-
rope for match play"
The scheme is o. X, but, as n
Chicago golfer remarked: TOO
many of the crowned heads Of Eu-
rope have been crowned recently
and so many crowns in Europe are
fitting that I don't think the wear.
ers thereof could find time to come
to these United States"
