spectively. XII
Kramer was accorded first rank
on last nights showing. His fight
with Dundee was sensational. The
decision provoked display of
temper by Dick Curley, Dundee's
manager, which resulted in revoca-
ton of Curley's license.
Special policemen had to show
Curley out. Before he went. how.
ever, he aimed a kick at the head
of Charley Mathison, one OF the
judges. George l.. Brewer, boxing
commission chairman, saw that and
announced that Curley's license had
been forfeited.
Kramer won Clearly over Dundee
In smuggling match. There was
some question about the Lombardo.
Paluso decision, many believing
Paluso had won a majority of the
ten rounds. Kaplan was too fast
for Garcia.
The fights were the first In the
boxing commissions tournament
designed to develop an outstanding
pretender to the featherweicht
crown. The tournament will be
concluded within six weeks. and
the winner VIII succeed to the
title formerly held by Dundee.

Smythe and Mckee Expected
to Shine in Game
Today

Washington gets its final eye.
full Of service football today when
the Atlantic Scouting Fleet and
Fort Benning Infantrymen's en-
listed mems teams clash at the
Clark Griffith stadium in a con.
test for a trophy donated by Pres
ident Coolidge.
AS the teams, conditioned to
perfection prepared to enter bat
tie, there were no betting odds on
either. A close, bitterly fought
game is the prospect.
1t is expected to be considerably
an individual battle between George
Smythe, Fort Benning's brilliant
quarterback, and Ira Mckee, the
Scouting Fleets formidable half
back, who distinguished themselves
respectively at West Point and the
Naval Academy.
There are several officers in the
squad of each eleven but each
will be allowed to use only one
at a time. 1t Is likely that Smythe
and Mckee will play greater part
Of the game.
mckee IS somewhat or a hero
among many of Washington Is
grid fans who saw him conquer
the champion Mohawks almost
singled handed after his team
virtually had fallen in the fray.
Smythe, playing with the Fort

listed men against the All.Marine
eleven, was able to do little dam

Six hundred sailors are on hand
to root for the Scouting Fleet and
as many -doughboys for the
Infantrymen. Each roofing section
has a 60-piece band. The sailors
have brought along their billy goat
mascot, Billyus, and with the Army
eleven is it's Missouri mule.

Dick Kerr Ineligible
To Play Until

CHICAGO, Nov. %. 49, Dick
Kerr, former White Sox pitcher,
is not eligible to play organ
lied baseball until September
next year. He consorted with
the outlaws until September of
this year. Commissioner X. M.
Lands explains that when he
took office the rules were
changed so if a man jumped
contract he must remain away
from the outlaws a year before
he can apply for reinstatement.
The Judge thought this was bet
ter than the five-year Danish
ment of jumping a contract and
the three-year period for not
observing the reserve rule.
Kerr broke the latter after he
was unable to come to terms
with the Sox.

Bootleg Bonds

A tax-free bond is a bootleg bond
in that the profit to it's owner,
through escaping all taxes, fails to
pay its just share toward govern
ment, just as the profits from boot
leg whisky fail to pay their share of
government expenses.
The tax-free bond is legal, how
ever, while bootleg liquor is not, but
in both instances the government
loses revenue from the profits in the
transaction.
Simple justice demands that our
laws will be changed so the profits
from future issues of public bonds
may be taxed. They would always
command lower interest rate than
private bonds on account of their
greater security.
Why permit the profits from this
class of securities to remain on a
bootleg basis-that is, with no return
to the government, which necessitates
other taxpayers carrying a double
burden to maintain the cost of gov
ernment?
