When Boy Bites Off His Own Tongue

Of the great open spaces when Joe
stumbled and fell. A healthy set OF
sharp teeth automatically closed
down on the wayward member. al
most severing it from it's moorings.
Joe. accompanied by a playmate,
ran to Georgetown University ,Hospi-
tai nearby, where the two boys man
aged to explain to DR.. Walter Teich-
man, resident surgeon, what had
happened Dr. Teichman threaded a
curved needle as the boys watched
obviously, applied a local anesthetic
to Joe's injured tongue and proceeded
to stitch it together.
Joe's tongue right now is in no
condition to moralize about ITSELF
but Joe is rather adept at making
himself understood by motions of the
hands, anyhow, and he indicates in
positive fashion that his tongue for
ever after is going to stay within
bounds.

GALESBURG, Ill, September O.
Senator Henrik Shipstead of Mime
sofa declared in an address here last
night that he and other supporters of
La Toilette agreed with Brig Gen.
Charles G. Dawes, Republican candi-
date for Vice President, that the is
sue of the campaign ''is the preserva-

very greatest enemies of;these same
fundamentals which he so virtuously
claims to defend. 4 a<.
Gen. Dawes does not specify what
he considers to be the fundamentals

 Of Season Is J'orcCaSt.

Chicago, Oct. 21. - The team to dispute Ilinois' claim to the 1924 title is the l-absorbing topic in the western conference as an aftermath Of last weeks contests.
 The challenger may be provided this week. Chicago, inc only team with conference record equal 10 that of the Illini which it meets No vember s. will get a severe test in
 meeting ohio State, conqueror of Purdue and third in the Big Ten rating
 Another contender likely 10 emerge from the Iowa Minnesota melee at Iowa City. Michigan, tenn porariIy out of the running as q re- zult of it's defeat by Illinois, has q chance to come back at Wisconsin's expense but the Badgers virh lie on their record. hope 10 advance their own standing.
 In practice this week, Chicago's attack has worked more smoothly and it's defense has improved. Par ticular attention had been directed by Coach StaSg to the aerial game he anticipates from Ohio State. Al the Buckeye camp. with the regulars in fine fettlc after the confer cnce engagement last week, inten- sive drills are the working program.
 Coach Bill spaulding at Ninnea- polls is experimenting with backfeld shifts for Iowa, whose sessions stress fundamental of line play and preparation of relief men.

HAITIAN BROAD JUMPER
 OUT TO MAKE RECORD
Man Who Recently Shattered French Rec ord Out to Attain
 Worlds Championship

Paris Oct. 21.-To hold the un- disputed broad jump championship of the African race is the life's am hition of Sylvio F. Gator of Port. au- Prince, Haiti, who recently shattered the French record with a leap of : metres and 90 centinetres, or prac- tic1lly a. feet.
 For this purpose Gator has placed himself under the direction of Trainer Quilgars O. the Racing Club of France with the avowed in- tention Of bcttcring the marks Of :'e Hart Hubbard and Ned Gourdih, the two American negroes who, un- til Bob Legendre's tremendous jump of 25 feet 6 inches during the Olympic Games, held most of the h.aping honors.
 Gator came to France last June to represent Haiti in the Olympic Games but, like Dick" Hyland of California, the American Olympic Rugbyplayer, he decided to enter school in France and incidentally to get the benefit of French training methods to improve his athletic per- formances as well as his studies.
 His best jump during the Olympic competition was seven metres, ten, Quilgars says the Haitian is improv- ing every day,and he has hopes that be4ore spring ne will negotiate sevep metres fifty regularly.

DELANEY GETS THE VERDICT EASILY Mccarthy Lays Down and Bout
 Is Awarded

Boston. Mass, Oct. 21,--Jack De laney of Bridgeport, Conn.,, had vic tory over Pat Mccarthy of Roxbury handed him on silver platter last night in Boston arena when Referee Jerry Moore stopped the bout in the eighth round because Pat wasn't fighting.
 The contest was a great disap- pointment for the boxing fans were looking for a short fast Eattlc, figuring 1t impossible for men of the type of Delaney and Mccarthy to go any distance ofter they cut loose.
 Pat Refuses to Fight
 Instead of there being any real scrapping, Pat all the way through refused to pitch in. He kept hold ing on,
 In the whole fight he did not hit Delaney more than five times and stopped around so that Delaney had no chance to extend himself, al- though he produced several sweet left jabs ana had his way in every rOund.
 The referee kept telling the local , II an to get onto himself but the ad- inonitions had no effect. Friends of the Nutmeg Slater were afraid that enc of Pats terrific wallops was likely to land with results on Jacks tender chin, but their fears proved to have no foundation at all.
 Delaney weighed lSo pounds, while Mccarthy tipped the scales at 172.
 The preliminaries were the best al traction of the evening, resulting il three knockouts and some fast fight :ng. Al Mello of Lowell, amateu 147 pound champion, fighting hi' first professional match, scored Il tt clinical knockous of Billy Brewstt of Lynn in the opening round of scheduled four round curtain raiser
 Andy Martin added to a lon: string of victories and copped th' South England championship h knocking out Eddie Deyine in th sixth round.
 Bob Lowrrv of Sec land tnock out Scoops" White in the sevcnt round of their engagement whit followed a meeting a feH weeks a. in which White was given the d. cjsion.
 In the previous engagement th bout was stopped after few mir lltts and the decision given 10 Whit when Lowrey had been twice warnc, gainst violations of the rules. La tights encounter gave the fans better line on the pair.
