Italian Wrestler De-
feats Green Bay Man
Poggi Takes the First Fall in Minute
and Half; Gets Second Fall in
Thirty-four Minutes.

Nazzareno Poggi, the young
Italian wrestler who has been max
ing his home in Hurley since his
match with Zbyszko, defeated Carl
Zoll, of Green Bay. at Bonino's hall
Thursday evening, taking two
straight fails
In the first fall Poggi pulled a
stunt similar to the one that brought
fame to Frank Gotch some years ago
in his match with Hackensmidt al
Chicago when he downed the Russian
in less than a minute for the first
fall.
After receiving instructions from
Referee John Aspinwall Poggi and
Zoll DOTTED their robes and advanced
to the center of the mat to shake
hands Instead of letting go after
the formality of shaking hands Poggi,
quick as flash, clamped on an arm
lock, bore his opponent to the mat
and in a minute and half had Zoll's
shoulders pinned to the mat for the
first fall. 1t all happened so quick
ly that fans were aghast.
Zoll then stepped out and explain
ed that the fall should not have been
allowed, declaring that it was a viola
ton Of the rules for Poggi to clamp
on a hold without first stepping back
after shaking hands He said that
il was the rules Of the game that the
principals in a wrestling match must
step back after shaking hands He
also complained to the referee.
After a few minutes rest they went
in for the second fall Zoll went
after his opponent hard but found
the Italian too tough proposition.
Poggi frequently broke holds that
looked like sure winners Ioll was
thrown for the deciding fall in thirty
four minutes after he had been
brought to the floor three times IN
succession with head lock ZoIl
remained on the mat a few minutes
and appeared dazed
As a preliminary local talent stag
ed two boxing exhibitions Of three
rounds each.
The attendance was not as large as
at the previous match.

Tourists Spend
Millions in State
Tourist Cars to the Number of 70O,-
900 Visited State Last Year,
Says Highway Department.

Madison-The tourist crop Melted
Wisconsin nearly $S9,000,000 in
1924.
Estimates made by the state high
way department today indicate that
the 100000 tourist cars which visitsd
the state during the wanderlust sea-
son spent sum about seven times
the value of the states entire potato
crop and more than one-third of
the farm value of the total milk pro
ducts.
at can be readily seen that the
tourist business is quite a vital lac
tor in the development of certain
sections Of this state" the report
says. 1.-THE northern part Of the
state especially depends largely on
this business"
The regular traffic counts taken
during 1924 showed traffic I'M
crease of PIG per cent over 1923.
Tourist traffic increased from 1877
per cent of the total in 1923 to Is
per cent in 1924. In 1919, foreign
cars comprised only S.S per cent Of
that years total.
Horse drawn traffic is steadily on
the decline, further figures show. In
1919, il was SO per cent Of the total
In 1923. it was II per cent. and last
year it was / per cent. Motorcy-
cles are showing a similar decline,
dropping from 20 to 0.6 per cent in
the same five year period.
In spite of the heavy traffic IN
crease in the state, accidents on the
state trunk highways were only 80
per cent Of the 1928 figures. Total
highway accidents last year were
,459, compared with 1920 in 1928
"A very decided falling off of traf-
fic accidents has been noticed in the
eastern part Of the state where adj
ditional through routes have been
built, as in the case of state trunk
highways Is and SIS through Mill
waukee, Washington, and Fond du
Lac counties" the report said

Highway Accidents
Show Decrease
State Department Reports That 1924
Trunk Highway Accidents Less
Than 1923 Figures.

Neutrality-suspicious. of more
through routes on highways and
division of traffic, decreasing the
concentration along certain routes,
probably will tend to decrease
accidents, declares a report of the
highway division of the state depart
ment of engineering Accidents on
state trunk highways in 1924 were
only 80 per cent of the 1923 figures,
the department reports.
The total number of accident in
1924 was 1,459, as compared to 1920
in 1923.
"A very decided falling off of traf-
tic accidents has been noticed in the
eastern part of the state where adj
ditiOnal through routes have been
built says the report.
The decrease in accidents came in
the face of an increase of ZIG per
cent in traffic. Tourist traffic has
increased from 1877 per cent of the
total in 1928 to Is per cent of the
total in 1924, it is reported.
Approximately 100000 tourist cars
visited Wisconsin during the past
season, the department estimates.
Figures are cited to indicate that
the tourists spent $8S,0O0,O0O in this
state.
at can be readily seen that
the tourist business is quite vital
factor in the development Of certain
sections of this state" the report
adds.

TEACHING PARALLELS

college professor has been going into the pSy-
chology Of Sunday School lessons and concludes that
great deal OF the teaching misses the mark, espe-
cially when it is concerned with parallels.
4 child Of seven, he finds, can understand read
lily the parable Of the Good Samaritan and the par
able OF the ProdgaI Son. But he says that it takes
child Of IA or - to grasp the parable OF the Widows
Mite or Of the House Built upon the Sand. So he
would not try to teach such lessons to the younger
children.
Other inquirers may reach different conclusions.
IT IS easy to underestimate the intelligence OF young
children. They often show surprising insight into
moral truths that escape older persons 1t is usually
question Of meeting the childs mind on its own
level and appealing to it in terms OF its expert
But if young children do seem to fail in under
standing big moral truth, that may not be good
reason for not presenting it to them. This seems
especially true Of such forms OF instruction parallels
and fables, and OF texts notable for strength and
beauty Of language. For such things stick in the mind
and understanding Of them grows with the minds de-
VeIopment. Many poems and other treasured pos
sessions are acquired in this way, and their value ap
preclated more and the posse5or gains expert
ence Of life.
The Bible and Shakespeare particularly are full
q passages whose full meaning uasods only in middle
lie or later j unfolds al the more richly and surely
from having been held 50 long in the memory. Why
