WILLIAM M. HABLISTON,

Courage for the great perplexities
Of life and patience for the small ones.
He wished not for few cares, but ca
pacity for many; not easy. tasks, but
strength to master all Of them; not
freedom from temptations. but grace
sufficient to wrestle with them; not
absence of sorrow and fret but faith
wherewith to. see beyond them; not
exemption from perplexities, but cont
dence In God to work them out-And
when this had been accomplished, to
go to sleep in peace-God is awake.
Thus WIS the full life spent by vii
liam M. Habliston and thus the sub
lime ending.
Citizen, churchman, friend. philan-
thrHpist; qualities all embodied In the
quiet, unassuming life he lived eacl,
and every day.
What he did as citizen and church
man, stands forth as nm over living
monument to generations yet unborn.
He loved Richmond, and ont of this
love- sprang his unselfish contribution
or his every emerge towards it's devel-
Opment.
TO his church he meant more than
can be put in unyiclding type. His life
as friend and philanthropist cannot
be momcrialiZed in words-no garish
prominence entered into thought or

3@zEll q ~

The home town fighter seldom gets
credit for his real ability. But the
outsiders look him over and call him
a champion. This applies to prac-
tically all boxers, but is especially
true of Billy Alger.
Wire Billy Alger two round trip
J tickets from Los Angeles, Denver
or some eastern boxing center and
he would be hailed as world cham
pion after his bout with Ralph Pena.
Then he dropped Jimmy Marshall
who is recognized as tough lad in
every city along the west coast.
Frank Crowley is matchmaker for
the American Legion club at Holly
wood where some high class cards
are staged. Crowley said Mike o.
Leary was a fighter and guaranteed
the local promoters he would satisfy
the fans. Crowley has been matching
bouts at the Hollywood arena ever
since it was opened and O'Leary has
boxed for him many times. He knew
what O'Leary could do, but he un-
der rated Billy Alger. After Mon
days bout Crowley did not hesitate
to make it clear that he did not
figure Alger one third as good as
he really is. He says O'Leary is not
in Ayers class and if he had known
how good AIger is he would never
have suggested O'Leary. Crowley
went even stronger and declared that
he would be at a loss to know just
who to bring over here to box Billy
and give him fight. He says Alger
simply overwhelmed O'Leary from
the gong and Mike never even had a
chance to put up his hands.
Coming from a man like Crowley,
the statement that California is shy
on suitable opponents for Alger
speaks well for the home town boy.
Right now there is one good bet in
California, Oakland Jimmy Duffey,
and the attendance at local bouts
does not warrant bringing Duffey
down here. The Oakland lad cannot
make a lightweight limit. but it would
make a good fight If the box office
could stand the expense. Packing
the Coliseum at the regular prices
would just about pay Duffy's bid and
the promoter would be out the rest.
Billy Alger is the best fighter
developed in the southwest in recent
years and he is just as good as any
lightweight on the Pacific coast. For
