Wilde Loses to
Villa in Seven
Round Ba t tt e
By PAUL MALLON,

NEW YORK June 19-Four years
ago Pancho Villa, II years old, came
out of the Philippine canebrakes to
make his fortune. At that time
Jimmy Wilde, British wizard was
"sitting on the world.'
Today Villa is flyweight cham
pion of the world and the fighting
career of the famous Welshman is
ended.
Working like an animated batter
ing ram Villa pounded, jabbed,
hooked and cut the veteran until his
pipestem legs dropped from be
meath him and he sank to the can
vas in the seventh round at the Polo
Grounds last night completely
knocked out. Blinded and beaten,
his face covered with blood and his
spindley white legs trembling be-
meath him, Wilde fought for five
long rounds on his courage. Never
after he was knocked down by a
right cross to the jaw at the close
of the second round, did he have u
chance to win. He knew he didn t
have chance but he groped blindly
on and on.
1t was the first time in his long
career that Wilde had been knocked
out by n man of his class. But the
odds of inactivity and age were too
great.
There were 10000 spectators to
see the bout and it is estimated that
it paid $180,000 of which Villa
gets $4,000 and Wilde $4,000.

RODNEY WILDE WEEDS
MISS DELPHIA ANDERSON

Rodney Wilde of American Fork,
Utah, and Miss Delphia Anderson OF
our city were married at Burley,
August 80 On their return to Oak
ley they were given free and some
what noisy ride through the streets
OF the old town, Friday night. An
old cart found on a vacant lot was
the splendid chariot used on this
mcst important occasion. 'Lenny'
was there with his big bass drum;
others brought dishpans and rolling
pins.
A more formal reception in honor
of the bride and bridegroom was
given at the Anderson home, Satur-
d. y night. Thirty-fiye invited
guests were present.
The young couple will make their
home in Salt Lake City.

Town Should Boost
Elba- Oakley Road
Oakley Is Logical Shipping Point
and Trading Center for Elba
Closing of Idahome Station Puts
Question Qquarely to Oakley

Oakley business men have an op-
portunity to extend the limits of
their trade territory to include the
prosper GUS community Of Elba,
which numbers sixty families and
over Ghree hundred people. Elbans
have been shipping from Idahome,
25 lailes distant; Burley, 36 miIes
distant: Declo, 27 miles distant. and
Rupert, SO miles distant. Part of
the road to Burley, Declo or Rupert
is in bad shape, as it crosses the Al
bion summit. Besides, the distance
to these three places is almost pro-
hibitiye The road to Idahome IS
fairly good, but the 1dahome branch
railroad will be closed permanently
on December /. Now is Oakleys oD-
portunity.
Tho distance to Oakley is but 10
miles. The Elba-Oakley road. ey-
cept for a couple of miles. is said %
be .nuch better than the road 20
Declo. Burley and Rupert. But this
couple of miles is practically imps j.
sible for cars. Elba people are anx-
ious to make Oakley their trading
headquarters, but to get sre nov
they have to come by Albion, dis
tance of 40 miles. or by Almo, dis
tance of AZ miles.
