The Haggard Girl of 20.

AT twenty the modern society girl is
worn out and becomes haggard bundle
of tangled nerves. older in appearance as
well as in enduring power than her mother,
who was saved by conventions of her day
from this premature decay At least,
London moralists so declare
DIR. Agnes Savile, who is said to be an
eminent physician, uttered these criticisms
and accompanied them with warnings in a
lecture she recently delivered before the
Institute of Hygiene in London. A brief
of her invective is that tn modern girl is
becoming poisoned by the hectic life she
leads by her cigarettes. her whiskies and
sodas, her cocktails before each meal as
well as by her unhealthful meals when
a girl like this marries. her standard of
relationship with her husband and children
will not be a high one. After few years
of society life she ages by ten years and
already at 20 she is as worn out and
nerve tired as a woman of 40"
But this is London. 1900 miles away.
Perhaps the same conditions do not exist
in New York. 1t can do no harm to in
quire of the physicians of standing, whose
waiting rooms are ordinarily thronSed
with women, if this disquieting neurotic
state is the rule here.
And before doing that why not use ones
eyes to see. if it is present to be seen, a
new standard OF living, perhaps new view
of what used TO be called morality?
That a new freedom is common and
meets with no objection is plain enough
to any spectator of women. He does not
need to have the entree to what is called
society in order TO distinguish it; he can
see it in all sorts of public places.
Take. for instance, the theater. any well
known playhouse on a first night. AS
the curtain falls on an act there en-
sues the usual exodus of women and men,
hut instead of dividing as formerly when
the women fingered in the foyer or sought
the dressing room and the men passed
the ticket box to the outer hall or even
TO the street in order to smoke nowadays
both women and men take return checks
and the women escorted or not, calmly
light up and smoke with a nonchalance
born of custom.

SAN FRANCISCO te 4...
100000 plus two players, an approxi-
mate figure of $125,000 and the larg-
est sum to be paid since Babe Ruth
was sold.
And yet it was but four years ago
that Billy Kamm left the Golden
Gate Recreation park sand lots to
go into the minor leagues.
The phenomenal rise of this 22-
year-old third base wonder" whose
purchase by the White Sox from the
San Francisco Seals has just been
completed. is without a parallel in
baseball history.
In 1918 a lean, gangling youngster
signed, with frightened restraint, a
contract to play with the Sacramento
Coast lea cue team. He had been re-
ported as having recruit possibilities
and was being closely watched. Three
weeks later he had been released only
to join. in 1918, the Seals team. In
three short years he has developed
into a "$125,000 beauty"
He's still bashful and bushes at the
drop of a hat, but he is declared by
experts to be the coming third base
man of the majors.
Danny Long, former manager of
the Seals, who put through the deal
declares he cannot remember having
seen a player with so many quaiifi-
cations. He'll make the biggest rec
ord of any man that ever hailed
from the west side of the Rockies.
Long predicts
His first season with the Seals did
not indicate big league possibilities.
He hit .235 and stole IA bases.
"He can't hit and he's aWfully
slow, they said
But he didn't weaken. He kept on
trying During the last two years he
has walloped out more runs than
any other player with the Seals.

Caponi Offers To
Meet Any Boy From
I22 To I35 Pounds

Billy Doc Morris says he has the
hardest hitting featherweight bat
tier in the world in Tony Caponi.
Billy challenged the winner of the
Moore Griffin bout on behalf of
Caponi and offered to have his
protege weigh in at 122 pounds.
Now comes word from Califor-
MIA that Caponi will take on any
legitimate lightweight.
Tony Caponi the 'Walloping
Wop'' will allow Mike Doyle or
any other lightweight to come in
at the lightweight limit, ringside.
That is whole lot of weight to
give away, but the Fighting Wop''
has the class and the punch and
that is all the fans care for any
way, is the way Billy Doc Norris
puts up paper for Caponi.
If Caponi rs half what Morris
claims for him he is some bat
tier. When a fighter offers to
range anywhere from 122 to 135
pounds he must have confidence
in his punch and ability.
Caponi weighs about 126 pounds
according to Los Angeles critics.
A boy with an ambition to fight,
such as Caponi evidently pos
sesses is worth considering.

by Miss Sigourney and other experts

How well their Individual styles

merely conjecture.
To allow the men TO meet on

would have TO DO eliminated. For
Dempsey the battle would appear
