There has been enough rag
chewing about the heavyweight
situation in the last twelve
month to- satisfy an epicure.
The only thing it has proven is
that Dempsey isn't going to
tight every Tom (Dick) and
Harry that comes along.
If Tom and Harry chase each
other around the ring like q
couple of billiard balls for the
Milk Fund, then Jack will have
no alternative except to run out
his string against the survivor.
But so far it looks like an
other spring vacation for the
champion which may run we'll
along into Indian summer. He
may fight some time in Sep
TENDER as against a long cold
winter.
A Wills and Gibbons debate
looks like what fight fans call
a natural" 1t would be a
"seven" and a eleven" in one
throw. The bugs would crowd
through those turnstiles like a
commuter grabbing the last
train home.
If Mr.. Dempsey refuses to aid
and abet this heavyweight in
vestigation, then the inquest
will be conducted without his
testimony.
But sooner or later the grand
jury will want to question
him, and the Wills-Gibbons in
terview may speed that day
and hour more than you suspect.
To date Jack has been a very
bashful witness where Wills has
been concerned and he doesn't
intend to speak out of turn
now. But when, he does take
the stand he won't need any
megaphone and the spectators
won't require ear trumpets.
When the time comes for
him to turn States evidence
against himself, mis- conversa-
ton will be largely wig-wag
and he never lets his signals
stutter.

Governor Smith was the guest
of honor at the game and made his
entrance through the gate in CEN
terrified, marching across the grass
tc his decorated box in the grand
stand. He was escorted by mil
itary aide and stirring airs were
played by brass band. The incl
dent had apparently been forgotten
until the gates swung open the
following afternoon before the
game. Then appeared Nick Altrock'
wearing a silk hat which ne Dor
rowed from. a cab driver, ana
black overcoat, worn over his base
ball uniform. Al Schacht, In the
role of military aide, walked at
his side, while Altrock acknowledged
the cheering of the fans, tipping
Ills silk hat in all directions. All
the way to box in the grand
stand the pair continued their DUR
lesque and / don't believe they ever
received such a noisy demonstrar
ton.
In the beginning Altrock's funny
stuff was based on the SkllIIul
and almost uncanny control he has
over a baseball. Before game he
would work at first base and catch
thrown and batted balls in every
manner one can imagine. He has
way of making ball bounce
high in the air, after hitting his
glove, that always gets laugh and
which took many years for him to
perfect. Nick still works his trick
stuff and it makes fine COM
bination with his clever pantomime.
But to me the oldest angle OF all
Nick Altrock's comedy is the fact
he is always funnier in every ball
park than when he's home In
Washington.

Dempsey Isn't Going to
Fight Every Tom, (Dick)

and Schacht showed up at the Yam,
kee stadium one afternoon with
dummy horses and staged race
around the cinder running track.
After getting all through, they
staged the race backwards. AltroclS
and Schacht have a funny rowing
stunt, where they are both sup
posed to be in boat. Finally one
tries to change seats, and they both
fall out in what is supposed to be
a river. As they try to swim to
shore they squirt water from their
mouths like pair of porpoises.
When all these acts are completed
their burlesque on classic dancing,
always brings down the house, as
the saying goes. This works best
when a brass band is on hand and
using a string of hot-dogs in place
of string of beads. the dancing
antics of Altrock and his partner,
produce no end of laughs.

ers never know when AltrOck is
going to spring a brand new

Brother to them, | do not think there
Is any better Americanization work
than that being done.
That Is the kind of work the pro
gressive savings bank is starting on,--
telling people that If they will come
to them with their troubles they will
be glad to give them the best disin-
terested advice, to do things for them
free, that otherwise they would be
charged for by somebody. They are
willing TO advise them when they get a
little more money than the savings
bank can take care of. what they can
invest 1t In, or In some cases what
not to invest Ii in.
IL the savings and commercial
banks all over the country adopt that
particular attitude toward our foreign
fellow-citi2ens, Ii will give them an
entirely different view of American
ism. II is this changed attitude that
has resulted in the tremendous growth
of deposits that have taken place in
,he savings banks since the war.
There has been a different spirit
breathed into the relations between
the depositors and the men on the
other side OF the counter.

money, did the depositor the favor of
taking it, and gave 1t back to him
when he wanted it. And then they
considered their full duty done.
The tellers and clerks treated the

his advice, and of late years the
