Everyone wanted to see him.
Consequently when he appeared
in public the prices went up,
and up, AND UP.
Then over on this side Of the
Atlantic another figure appeared.
It was from South America.
The figure was huge. It was
'the bear who walked like .
man." The figure was Firpo
from the Argentines.
The man was immense. He
was the modern cave man. He
was what Jack London termed
an "Abysnlal brute" He was
also full of color, full Of ac-
ton, SOMETHING NEW.
Both these cards came 20
America.
The S. ringside seat became =
thing Of the past.
Fifty dollars was charged for
ringside seats when they ap-
peared and they sold at . pre-
MUM.
Baseball, tennis, polo, football
and other sports were simply
thrown overheard.
Il became fashionable to at
tend prize fights and the four
hundred fell for it the way .

Carpenter and Dempsey drew
over q million dollars when they
met in 4 Jersey ring.
The layout was splendid. The
orchid man of Europe versus the
champion fighter OF the world.
II was well advertised, everyone
who was anyone was there.
The fight itself was a poor
affair. Any preliminary show
would excel it. However, it was
the fashion and it went.
After that came the man from
South America. The cave man.
The man who would have to
live in a tree if, he had one
more hair on his chest.
He met Dempsey. Again the
crowded arena. Again the high
priced seats and again an or
binary fight. We have seen bet
ter bouts in amateur shows. There
was no science, no clever work,
nothing but q slam-bang two
rounds Of Pier 6 stuff.
Two longshoremen could have
done the same thing.
That was the end of the high
hating. Society and who's who
seemed to tire Of the ballyhoo.
Other big shows were put on.
They left the crowd cold.
Gate receipts fell off.
Boxing went back to its level.
Fight promoters reduced prices,
but still the crowd was lacking.
The cake had been cut. It was
all over.
The high hat was put back on
the shelf, and boxing is back
where it started.

Recent upsets In collegiate foot

because the present squad has in

the hearts Of members Of the 1915
team after the Centre game and
seeks atonement.
The present West Virginia team
Is not as heavy as the outflt that
was held to a 1913 tie by Penn

been developed to supplement q

the leaders when the 1924 rank

Despite President Griffith, short,
catchy name would prove q big
help in the publicity surrounding
the 1924 champions of the world

umns has much to do with the

papers demands that they he

Buccaneers" Thus does the law
Of necessity work its wonders to
perform.
Meanwhile a perfect flood of

was trying to get him disbarred from
the practice Of law, that he was pry-
ing around his home and law office,
and that there was also a conspiracy
to get him expelled from the Mason
ic lodge 1t was brought out that the
accused man put big locks on both
his Office doors and those of the
house. They all gave it as their opin-
ion that Taylor was insane and did
not know what he was doing when
he shot Mclaughlin.
DR.. T. E. Evans was the last wit

acted in the manner ascribed to him
by the witnesses, it was his opin-

BREAKS ARM

Charles Mailer was the victim Of
an accident Thursday afternoon OF
last week, while in the neighborhood
Of Dixie He was riding a horse
bareback and in some manner fell
from the animal, striking on his
right side. The humerus bone was
fractured about two inches above
the elbow, the break being clean.
Charlie managed to walk to the Wen
dell place but tainted when he ar
rived. A phone message from Dixie
brought assistance and the injured
man was brought to Mountain Home,
where DR.. Hamilton reduced the frac-
ture. It is expected that the patient
will be all right in a few weeks.
