Tex Rickard, who has a fair
for finding good gate attractions,
was drilling the Chilean, Luis
Vicentini, for high honors among
the lignrweights. Three times
the Chilean pranced about on his
red shoes and three times he
knocked out his opponent.
AS a sort of final test, Vicen-
TIM was sent against Johnny Shu-
grue, younger brother of the
well-known Joe Shugrue, who
knocked out Benny Leonard be-
fore the latter was champion.
Weak eyesight took Joe Shugrue
out of the ring, but he is now
training his two younger broth
ers, Johnny and Willie.
Vicentini ranked a heavy favor
ite to win by a knockout, but to
the surprise of everybody Shu-
grue gave the Chilean a boxing
lesson and sent him back to his
own country for meditation.
Richards promising youngster
with the red fighting shoes was
back whence he had started. He
must Sght his way up again.
Meanwhile, Johnny Shugrue
was given the chance that the
Chilean might have had with VIC
tory. He was matched with Pal
Moran. Thev met last Friday
night, and, though displaying the
real Shugrue gameness, Johnny
was sadly whipped. The referee
had to put an end to the punish
ment.
Today Pal Moran, once known
as a powder puff puncher, I"
looms up as q likely opponent
for Benny Leonard in a battle
for the lightweight championship
Of the world. II he lands it he
will be facing Leonard for the
third time.
In 1920, and again just two
years ago, Moran fought Leon
ard. Each time it was in a ten
round-no-decision affair, with
Leonard coming in at catch
weights. That experience has
given the New Orleans lad the
desire of fighting for the title.
Wagner Is Another.
Tut Pal Moran is not the
only fistic luminary on the
- horizon. Eddie Kid Wag-
ner, of Philadelphia, is another,
a bit lighter than Moran, but
growing fast and soon to grad
uate into the lightweight class.
In the same show which saw
Moran stop Shugrue, Wagner
knocked out Sid Terris, who was
being groomed for a title contest
with Johnny Dundee, junior
lightweight champion.
Ring fans may remember how
Johnny Dundee, flushed with his
new featherweight crown, was
matched with Benny Leonard and
went to Philadelphia for q work.
out. He met Eddie Kid Wagner
that night and took a fine beat
ing. His mouth was severely
chopped and he was unable to
get his bout with Leonard. New
York fans refused to fall for it
and the promoter Cancelled the
show.
Wagner is now a 1S0-pounder.
He is growing and in q few

Dempsey Is Right.

SkC OMEW dEhE, says JACK
y Dempsey, there's a young
fellow coming along who
will knock me loose from the title
some day. He probably has no
idea at this moment of what is
in store for him. ! wish l knew
where he was; ] might poison
him or something"
Dempsey is joking about poi
soning his future opponent, but
he's darn right that there is a
young fellow coming along some
where who will one day knock the
crown off the champions head.
Also, get that young" That
eliminates Luis Angel Firpo, who
will get his second beating some
time during 1924. The Argen-
tinian is too old to learn the
trick Of beating Jack Dempsey.

AS a rule, where only a few pins
are involved. as in an easy spare
break. accuracy counts about SO
per cent.
But one Of the finest bits of
bowling on record rewarded the per-
former with next to nothing. Harry
Stanford was the victim in question
Of remarkable example of tough
luck.
Stanford was bowling at the
Rathskeller. He wanted a mark
in the worst way. A hit in the
pocket got him bad split, with two
pins standing. wide apart, and ex-
actly opposite each other across the
alley. To make a spare out Of
this would necessitate sliding one
OF the pins at a right angle.
Which Is exactly what STAN
ford did. The ball hooked slightly
and sideswiped the pin OH the
right. The maple slxittIed across
the alley and knocked down the
other one.
Stanford was about to receive the
congratulations of all present on
having made a brilliant shot when
their admiration suddenly turned to
amazement.
The sliding pin, after upsetting
its mate, reeled q moment, wobbled
a bit, then stood upright.
If ever q bowler was cheated Of
his deserts it was Stanford in
this moment.
Queer are the ways Of duckpins.

Not q Real Test.

A S expected by those knowing
~ most about the game, Benny
Schwartz defeated the lion
hearted Filipino midget, Young
Dencio, in their ring tilt Monday
night at Baltimore. Schwartz is
rapidly coming to the front
among the country's best midget
boxers. He is also growing and
will be battling in the bantam
class before long.
The Dencio bout, however, was
hardly a real test for Schwartz.
He had too much height and
weight and reach for the Nav
flower mess boy. He weighed
in at 115h pounds, while the
best Dencio could do was 1O8
according to announce
ments from the ring.
Schwartz lacks sufficient punch
ing power right now to work
much havoc among the bantams.
It is doubtful If he could defeat
Villa, the flyweight king, because
OF insufficient stamina. Villa is
full grown, while Schwartz is
still growing. But when the little
Baltlmorean settles down to box
around 125 pounds, say, he should
be a humdinger.

Using a duckpin bah selected for
its trueness. Krauss made ten shots
at a set Of new pins, rolling the
ball down the chute. resetting the
pins after each shot and placing
them carefully on the spots. Each
time the ball hit the headpin at
precisely the same angle with pre-
cisely the same force.
1t would appear natural under
these conditions that the same eff.
feet would be produced by all
shots. Instead no two attempts
resulted the Same. Ten different
breaks occurred. Some were SINH
lar but not exactly alike. Nothing
could be more effective, perhaps,
In illustrating the element Of un.
certainty in duclzplns, particularly
as concerns the vitally important
first ball.

Lee. DAVIS SAILS
FOR SOUTH AMERICA

New York, Nov. 8-James ]. Davis,
secretary of labor, sailed today on the
Southern Cross for South America to
study methods of handling immi-
grants.
He issued a statement suggesting
that congress in its next session would
amend the immigration law to pro-
vide for admitting alien families as
units.
4If the alien is unable to bring his
family to his new country he is forced
to support it abroad with wages he
earns in America; if he is enabled to
bring them here the buying power of
his wages goes to help American bust
ness" Mr.. Davis said
He added that several South Ameri-
can countries had systematic means of
distributing immigrants to enable
them to fit into economic life.
He will visit Brazil, Crugudary, Ar
gentine, Chile, Peru and Panama.

interest--for the use Of your money
II your 500 bond pays four and q
quarter per cent you get four dollars

until 1t reaches maturity-that Ia. the
date when the time OF your loan 10 mp
and Uncle Sam returns your money.
When bond reaches maturity II

for collection, because after maturity
you will get no more interest on the

mistake, says Prof. Stanley A. Smith
of the architecture department at the

The next thing the architect must
know is where the house is to stand
The type of house to be built in hol-
low probably would be all wrong on

planned differently from one on mar.
row lot between two tall buildings.
The frontage, slope, and neighborhood
must be known if he is to plan some
thing appropriate and satisfactory.
The likes and dislikes of the builder
should be known. If there is GER
tain type of staircase or fireplace or
doorway that just suits" mother let
the architect know. An excellent plan
for prospective home builders is to
keep scrapbook, whenever a picture
or an idea comes to the builders at
tention, he should put it into the book.
or jot down where it can be found.
Then If the book is turned over TO the
architect, he will have a guide TO the
preferences of his client. He may not
be able to use all the suggestions, but
they will help him to plan something
satisfying.
The architect should know the in
dividuals in the family if possible. IL
there is an invalid, probably down.
stairs bedroom will be wanted; or a
special sunny room on the south. If
there are many children, playroom
or nursery might be included In the
plans. If dad is hunter or fisher
man, an extra closet for the outing
togs and equipment would please him.
The day of the ugly little cigar-box
house set down on the prairie and
painted shrimp pink or robins egg
blue, is gone now, for people are being
educated to want better things,
through the articles in magazines and
newspapers, and especially through
the advertising illustrations. Manu-
facturers of paints and roofing ma
terials, mill work and cement blocks,
etc. now employ the aid of architects
in planning their advertising pictures.
AS result, the next period of do
nestle architecture, says Prof. Smith,
will be something that the American
people will be justly proud of.
