Day Boasts Come
True.

Scrubbed forecasts on the flyleaf Of
4 high school annual:
To our pal, Fidel, the coming
champion Of the world
looking FOR the time when
you will wear the crown"
You will be the champion some
day and we are all back Of YOU. 5"
And they have all come true.
For Fidel La Barba is the worlds
champion flyweight boxer. Clever lit
tie Fidel La Barba, the idol of the
graduating class from Lincoln high
school Of Los Angeles last February,
when all the graduates wrote in his
year book their prophesies and good
wishes for his championship honors.
When FNel defeated frankie Cen
arc and caused a sensation that the
most blsse fans will remember, he full
filled the expecta tlons scrawled' upon
that hyleaf.
You might take this new worlds
champion for a poet, with his ex-
pressive brown eyes. Or for a vio-
iinist, with his crisp, black curls.
Or, possibly, for an artist.
But a worlds boxing Champion
Never!
But every ounce Of that 1l2
pounds is speed Of brain and force
Of Drawn, say the men who wrote Of
boxing.
MOTHERLESS HOME.
And, since the boxing writer's have
written all about Fidel La Barba in
the ring and from the ring-side, why
not take a look at the new world
champion in his home and see what
o new nyweight champion looks like
at close ranger
In the family circle Of the La Barba

Six full games separate the lead
ing Senators and second-place Ath-
letics as a result of the champions
decisive triumph over the Red Sox
yesterday, 8 to 8, while the Mack
men were idle. Seven scattered hits
constituted the limit of Boston bat
ting liberties permitted by Pitcher
Ferguson, while the Senators male
their nine bingles count heavily in the
scoring.
Pittsburgh, with long lead over
the Giants in the National, failed TO
keep pace with the Washington win

worlds champions lifted their string
to six straight wins, the steady march
of the Pirates was finally interrupt.

Kechnie's club had piled up nine vic
tories in a row.
-r HORNSBY HITS 35.
Rogers Hornsby's 35th circuit blow
featured a st. Louis batting attack
which reached the peak Of its effective
ness against the veteran Babe Adams
in the ninth, when five runs were
scored by the Cardinals.
A home run by Terry in the tenth,
enabled the Giants to draw a little
closer to the Pirates by defeating the
Phillies, So. The victory reduced
Pittsburgh's advantage to eight games
over the New York team. Irish Meu.
sci gathered his twentieth homer OF
the season in the fifth.
In the only other game yesterday,
National League pitching duel between
Jake May of Cincinnati and Bush OF
Chicago, Walker put the Reds on the
winning side of the ledger by driving
in runners in the fourth and ninth:
May gave the Cubs but five hits and
the Redland cohorts choked off a Chi
cago rally in the ninth to finish on
top, 81.

OLMOS DAM WORK
Continued From Page 1, Part -

Rivera. who is spending six months
with the Second Engineers for in
structiOn in military science, pro-
nounced it one Of the most stupendous
engineering undertakings he has ever
inspected.
Colonel Crecelius took the two cngi-
neers over every part OF the site,
showing them the excavation work
already done and the plans for the
future. They visited the field lab
oratory and descended into the huge
hole which has been dug for the foun-
dation Of the concrete structure which
will stand 80 feet high in the center Of
the Olmos channel.
The dam when finished, will ex-
tend from a high bluff on the cast
side of the creek to a slopins hill on
the west.
IT will be 1925 feet in length. with
a 24-foOt roadway across the top.
This roadway will be lighted with or
namental lights.
At each end Of the dam hard sur
face roads are being built which will
connect with paved roads in Alamo
Heights and Summit Place.
The Mckenzie Construction Com
pany is expected to begin pouring con
crete for the huge structure within n
short time.
Completion Of the dam is expected
by early summer.
