NOTICE

To The Voters of Ell Centre and
Vicinity.
I have not made canvass of
this district for the reason that I
have been a resident of FL Centre
for the past ten years and L feel
that most everyone knows me and
my qualifications for the office 1
am candidate for.
With three other men in the
field from Ell Centre I realize that
each is due to considerable support.
Any effort made in my behalf by
my friends will be duly appreciat-
ed.

l hio bPOHBS " SHdi no LOub ut Int
end OF eight rounds in which Eddie
was continually being worn down.
Sor tho first half dozen rounds Of
the main go Perkins stayed in his
characteristic crouch and gave the
Kansas City man very little exposed
surface to attack. Walker went for
him, however. and seemed to have the
advantage. Walkers blows had to
look around for a landing, but Per
kins found the same difficulty and
could not follow the quicker move
ments of his rival.
In the second round Perkins began
bleeding ~profusely from the mouth.
He retaliated in the fourth by de.
livering n ton of brick that closed
the left eye OF the Kansas City chap.
Walker showed considerable results
Of being worn down in the next round
n was forced to a disadvantage be.
of the Cyclopean nature Of his
eyesight.
h Casper boy began to open UP a
little in the seventh though It was
not until the ninth tina he forgot
that he had a crouch The seventh
and eight were pretty even frames
with Perkins getting in several
wicked Jabs.
The next three periods were still
undecisive. Walker was sufficiently
tired SO that he was not able to take
advantage of the openings which II
offered him earlier in the evening
might have meant the downfall of
Perkins.
Excitement was at its pitch as the
gong sounded for the final round.
Both battlers were ready for a fin.
ish. Perkins landed terrific punches
and forced his mar to the p
repeatedly. Another crashing ham.
mer to the already swollen eye of
Walker drew a nasty stream of
blood. Undoubtedly the giant from
the east was suffering and only the
fact that the close of the fight was
near sustained him In his resolu-
ton to see the end of the round.
1t was the consensus of opinion
that Perkins deserved the decision
which was handed out by the judges.
Steve STREET and Cliff Dodge. Sam
Buxbaugh of Denver. was referee
for this go.
Both tho preliminary events last
night were fast contests. Mosher
who weighed less than his opponent.
Dillon. looked like a winner from
the start. He showed better STAN.
ina throughout the o rounds and
in the last one gave Dillon such a
wicked punch to tho face thnt the
battler reeled. 1t was this blow
which paved the why for the knock
out that came a second or two later.
Charley Long showed an inclina-
ton to mix with st. Clair at the
first sound Of the gong, nor was the
local boy holding back himself. \
few rounds sufficed. however, to
make st. Clair cover up and cling
to the p rs though they were
h best friends he had
Cliff Dodge was referee for the
preliminaries. Jack Leary acted as
last night.

Spechs OF Denver yesterday and left
last night for the Ohio town.

It was apparent before play start
ed that the worlds champion Giants
would have but little difficulty IN
keeping up their championship pace.
On paper they were a trifle strong
err than last year. their competitors
hadn't improved considerably. But
the temperamental Yankees were
supposed to be having e lot of trouble
at this stage.
The Giants have lived up to ex-
pectations and the Yankees haven't;
the American Leaguers have lived up
to their possibilities.
Bad weather forced postponement
of the renewal of the Giants-Car-
dinal series yesterday. but II the
Giants continue mauling all but the
