That's Bills mission in life, it
seems. He never quite reached the

to get there have to pass him to do
so.
Jack Dempsey did-and Jacks the

ing to get a decided edge in estab-
fishing weight and size.
The English pros. particularly the
veterans, seek to have ball consid-
erably lighter than the one used in
this country by our best pros as the
standard ball of golf.
Their reason. according to our pro-
fessional players. is that with light
ball. which will just carry SO far. the
veterans are able to get Just as much
distance as the younger players. This
Is not true with heavier ball which,
has greater carrying qualities.
1t is possible. however. that the
weight question may be threshed out
and a standard ball adopted soon.

two reasons: First, because they
don't know what II Is to frame bout:
and second, because they love the
game too much to do 10 II they ever
learned how it's done. Villa and
Flores have never put up an unsatis-
factory bout. Often, they've scared
their opponents to such an extent that
the opponents refused to mix II. Abe
Goldstein was one Of those whom
Villa frightened almost out of the
ring. Abe refused to go near Villas
pile-driving right and made a slow
bout out of It. That's why Promoter
Mulligan is glad Goldstein isn't going
to be Villas opponent Saturday night.
Darcy may not be listed among the
''best three" in his class, but he's
game little fellow. clever boxer and
hard hitter who Is expected to let
Villa know he was In battle.
Elmo Flores tackles Pete August,
Bridgeport's nifty lightweight. Pete
has heard that Flores is a head
hunter. but Pete says he doesn't care
what he is. "Just because he's new
type in the boxing game. he's got
most OF the fellows he meets
buffaloed.' said August yesterday

Wilde Is All Through

New York, March 22.-Jack Shar-
key, the little New York bantam who
went to England hoping to get bout
with Jimmy Wilde, worlds flyweight
champion, and returned to this coun-
try without being successful, yester-
day declared that Jimmy Wilde has
no intention of coming to this coun-
try and that the Englishman is
through with boxing. Sharkey said
that Wilde weighs 1875 pounds strip
ped and 1876 in his clothes.
1T is a physical impossibility for
Wilde to make the fiyweight limit of

prosperous and contented and when
asked him il he intended coming to
this country to fight he smiled broad
smile that was more expressive than

Eve VIII Oppose Tax
Equalization Repeal;
Sees Hope in Session

SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov. 5.-With
the extraordinary session of the
Georgia general assembly scheduled
to convene next Wednesday, Repre-
sentative J. H. Eve, of Chatham
county, today stated he was opposed
to the repeal of the tax equalization
law and to the enactment of any of
the tax income measures presented
to date.
The. representative said, however
that he was hopeful that the special
tax commission, appointed by Gov
ernor Walker, will have a logical
and equitable tax measure" to pre-
sent to the special session.
I Governor Walker issued his call
for the extra session for the con-
.sideration of the states tax problem,
tax collection machinery and the
free text book question.
81 am in favor of the state max
ing proper provisions to collect taxes
under any system adopted or MAIN
tanned" Mr.. Eve stated.
81 am opposed to the proposed
measure for free text books for
children in the common schools OF
the state at this time. Other things
are needed more than this in our
common schoolsa and I thihk any
additional funds that are available
for the common schools can be. used
in a better way. think they need
longer terms and better compensa-
ton for the teachers he said.
