NEW YORK Sept. 2 Omitted
Press) Jack Dempsey and Bill
Brennan were refused permission 10
meet in the ring at Michigan City,
Indiana, on Labor Day, because the
bout was officially declared TO be a
prize fight.
Benny Leonard was allowed to
hight Rocky Kansas and Ever Ham
mer in the same ring because they
were boxing matches.
The legal distinction between a
prize fight and a boxing match
must be drawn very fine.
Practically speaking. in the pro-
fession ring there is no difference
Between a prize fight and a boxing
match. They are both prize fights.
Both boys are paid to 90 in the
ring and fight II they don't fight,
the boxers are working under false
pretenses because the customers
pay their money in the hope of
seeing some one knocked out.
The name boxing contest and
boxing match originated to rid re-
formers Of the bad sounding term
prize fights.

Fortified financially TO take care OF
Ihis own troubles. but Il does seem
Ithat the champion does get an un-
flair deal once in awhile
Certainly his scheduled fight with
Bill Brennan looked like a setup

Who is there for him to fight
without It being a setup?
Harry Wills. of course.
It is not fair. however, TO expect
Dempsey to fight Wills without go

WITS IS getting ready for Dempsey
by fighting worse dubs than Demp-

gets the credit for fighting. Demp-

on him for it.

'BIG GAME" SHOWS
PRIMITIVE COURAGE
May Allison Has Good Medium
In Photoplay Adaptation Of
Stage Success

All lovers of the photoplay,
with the gift of discriminating
pictures OF distinction and rare
merit from the ordinary, will
unite in hailing the announce
ment that big Game" starring
May Allison, the popular Metro
star, will come to the Bligh the
ater on today for run Of three
days.
May Allison has won a numer-
GUS following by her appealing
personality, and in this photodra-
matization Of the famous New
York stage success by Willard
Robertson and Kilbourn Gordon,
she has a medium for the rich ex-
preston Of her dazzling person
ality.
The reason big Game" will be
enjoyed by everybody without ex-
ception is that It's appeal is so
universal, the story of a mans
fight to convince himself that he
is no coward, and to save the wo-
man he loves. May Allison has
the part of Eleanor Winthrop, the
wife of Larry" Win
throp, heir to the millions of the
old Boston Winthrops. She be-
lieves Larry the essence of all
things manly, but during an ad-
venture in the northern Canadian
woods, to find hidden gold, her
totters when she finds
him afraid Of Henri Baptiste, a
Canadian-French guide. Baptiste
Is bent on winning Eleanor by
force, and the Transformation of
Larry from weakling to an in
furiated vengeful primitive is one
Of the fine achievements of the
picture.
The supporting cast includes
Forrest Stanley, Edward Cecil,
leffie Tillbury, william Elmer
md Sidney D'Albrook. Edward T.
Iowe, Jr., did the adaptation,

bidding them to use purse seines
in that stream, must take up their

What's New on the Market
BY REX STEWART

Silverside salmon, cought with
hook and line off the Oregon coast
near Newport, is on the market to-
day for IS eetns pound by the
whole fish, weighing from five to
eight pounds each. 1t is the best
quality of salmon that can be found
for the fish is fat with deep-sea
feeding and has not lost weight with
spawning.
Fine locking peaches are on the
market for S5 cents a basket. The
crop is large this year and with
prices quoted low at the beginning
of the season the housewife win
be able to obtain cheap fruit when
the harvest season has reached its
height, which viii perhaps be in
about two weeks.
The egg market remained firm
today.

NEAL ELECTED
PRESIDENT OF
JERSEY CLUB

Burton ]. Neal of Turner wal
elected president of the new Ma.
rion County Jersey Cattle clut
which was formed at the big car
avian dinner yesterday noon al
the Brewer farm near Aumsville
Other officers elected were
Frank WeIch, route 8, Salem, yice
president; Stanley Riches, Tur.
ner, secretary and treasurer, and
Warren Gray, Jefferson, and Geo
Brewer, Aumsvllle, to act as the
two additional directors on the
staff.
The dinner came after the car
avan OF Jersey enthusiasts, about
l25 strong, had studied the rec
ords and inspected the herds and
barns at the following places:
Meadow View farm herd. Tur-
ner; George W. Moore herd, Tur-
nerj Stanley Riches herd, Tur-
ner; Pickard Brothers herd, Ma
rion; Graymere farm, near JEFF
ferson; ending the tour at the
Brewer and Gentry farm near
Aumsville, where all enjoyed the
dinner.
After the dinner had been JUS
titled and the new association
had been organized, Field Direct
or Astroth talked for about an
hour on matters of Importance to
dairy men. His greatest point
brought out was that every dairy
man should keep the words,
Feed, breed, weed and adver-
tise' constantly before him.
with the neglecting of either of
these the dairy man is robbing
himself" he said.
AS the group were returning to
Turner, from where they started
they visited the farm Of G. A..
Hansen, near Aumsyille. The
Hansen farm boasts OF one pair
OF senior yearling cows, twins,
who have produced more than 400
pounds OF butter fat in the first
months Of lactation. The mother
has produced better than 600
pounds in the same period. 1t is
not believed that there Is trio
OF such as these with such high
tests anywhere in the state and
possibly not In the United States.
In the evening the group met at
Turner for a stereopticon lecture
on Jerseys by Mr.. Astroth. His
speech was preceded by an ad-
dress OF welcome by the mayor of
Turner followed by several Sc
Ioctions by the Turner band.
Mr., Astroth is visiting the
