BOUTSREFEREE
Macon Wrestler Trainer Picked
AS Third Man In Ring Here
Thursday

Harry Stevens, of Macon, has been
secured to referee the four bouts
staged by John D. Mathis Post,
American Legion, at the Americas
Playground next Thursday aftern-
noon at 1870.
Stevens has many friends in Amer
icus and was readily agreed to by all
eight of the scrappers on the Legion's
ail-star card. Stevens has had
many years experience in the ring.
He is professional wrestler and
boxer, a trainer of many successful
amateurs and professionals and has
the reputation of being eminently
fair and just.
The fact that bouts are being held
out of doors adds quite a novelty to
the occasion. A regulation 18-foot-
square stage is being constructed by
the Legion committee. The stage
will be raised 3 or 4 feet above the
ground and seats arranged around
this, a permanent ring. The ring is

stands can be used by those with
general admission tickets. Reserved
seats will be placed completely around
the ring, chairs being used for this
purpose.
The two main bouts will be be-
tween Charley Garner, of Americas,
and K. 0. Duggan, of Rome, for 10
rounds, and Young Paskey and Eddie
Hanlon, for 10 rounds. The first
match is heavy weight, the second
being in the welterweight division.
Two light weight preliminaries are
on the program. KEN Kimsey, of
Americas, will try out "Scrap Iron"
Green, of Macon, for six rounds to
a decision, Next will come Bob
Green, of Plains, who meets Morris
Adkins, of Cordele. All four of
these young fighters are training hard
for the match, each having his heart
set on gaining a decision to carry

TURKS IN EUROPE

The cotton market yesterday was
temporarily affected by the new de-
velopments in Turkey, but the reac-
tion Of the forenoon was overcome dur
ing the day apparently by the moder-
ate tone of the news from London.
That was the situation today. The
allies had never ratified peace treaty
with the younk Turks, who were driv-
en- into Asia, and when Greece pur-
suing an imperialistic course in con-
tinuation of the war, met with re-
verses, the nationalists merely an
nounced that they would regard no
treaties as binding made between the
powers and the sultan, who was propp-
ed up in Constantinople by the Brit
ish.
The situation lacked allied leaders.
If Lloyd George could have had his
way, the Turks would be on the run
yet, instead Of demanding that allied
troops evacuate Constantinople.
- 0hSC u0u oSpAA oCIOio VI HcI OWIl, as
did Italy, and both these powers were
dssirous of checking the Greeks. They
sided against England in the contest,
the French largely because England
had been more moderate towards Ger
many.
This condition enabled the Turks to
entrench themselves in Europe again.
The United States was not interested,
and England could not exert the prop
er pressure. Thus the world has allow
ed the Turks to come back for the
time being-until the small powers in
the Balkans again unite against the
common enemy.
The cotton market, however, deals
only with present situations and does
not speculate on the future. There is
little likelihood of war in Europe at
this time, whatever may result from
the presence Of the arrogant Turk in
Constantinople again.
