HARRY WILLS
DANGEROUS
OPPONENT
AN EXPERTS OPINION

NEW YORK, Octolsr 17.-Out OF
the fog OF belligerent assertion
scornfu. den al and Indignant reit-
eral on THAI envelops the hostile
camps of the Dempsey and Wills
conversational comba.ants there has
emerged one clear-cut, incontroYert

WEES, Gene Tunney or any other
chat enger during the year 192o,
writes Charles F. Mathison.
Despite the avalanche OF words
that has descended on the unforCun-
ate devotees of boxing, there remains
u keen interest as to the outcome OF
battle between the champion and
the alb est boxer of the Negro race
QUESTION ABOUT CONDITION.
1t is ques ionable to me if the
conqueror of Willard ever regalns

of Maumee Bay when he fought
w Hard there. Although Dempsey

faces wis in the summer OF 1870
il wip mark the third year that the
champion has been out of "eiye com
o,+ibon. Nothing is more destructive
of pug1l7stic form Than complete aD-
sonco from ring combat for a term
of years.
In comparing Wills and Dempsey
from physical viewpoint It Is at
cnce apparent thd, he Negro has
lived n more sedate life than ms
white rival. Wills has been married
for a number of years and has never
been subiec ed to the glare OF screen
'and's hectic existence.
On the contrary, he Negro has
shown decided preference for home
Ife with he result that now ut So
Years of age he is in full possess
ion Of his phys cal powers and is
without douh: one of the strongest
men thas ever drew on pair or
boxing goves He will have the ad-
vantage over Dempsey in height,
weight and reach, the Negro and
ing feet inches tall weighing
215 pounds IN condition for the ring
and having a reach of "a inches.
On he other hand, Dempsey stands
feet 1 1-2 inches tan, will weigh
1SS pounds in the ring and has a
reach of so inches. Dempsey in his
prime was the quicker of the two,
especially in 5he matter of attack

CUSTER'S HISTORIC
LAST STAND FILMED


A reproduction of Clusters Last
Stand is one of the man thrilling
features hat make The Scarlet
West" a First National picture COM
ing to the Strand theatre on Monday
and Tuesday, August IT and is, one
of the outstanding film productions
of the year.
This episode in American history
has no dramatic counterpart, and
the producer, Frank j. Carroll, has
reproduced it with a fidelity that
only six months of research could
insure. The camera has visualized
this memorable event with such
graphic %vividness Thai it is a sight
never to be forgotten.
One sees the gallant general and
his soldiers fighting against bitter
odds. gradually being surrounded
by the thousands of %galloping In
dians. One by one the troopers
drop in their tracks until only a
small band remain. Standing in
their midst, erect and unafraid. and
firing his rifle as rapidly as posi-
BILE, is Custer. ~Undaunted, he fights
to the end. A moment after his
last man is slain he also drops to
the ground-a hero meeting a hero's
death.

may not know it, but the young
sparrows cannot eat grain like
their parents, so they have to
have a lighter and softer diet.
And this baby food which is
given to them is none other than
caterpillars and grubs! Think Of
the good that does in removing
those destructive creatures from

turned dark red as he spoke so

"You surprise me-" said. But

PLAIN COLORS
SCHEDULED
BY Alice Langelier-

PARIS.
IF summer models cast their
4 shadows before, black will be
in full favor again before>> the
leaves turn brown.
A preference for the old stand
by black is a feature OF the new
est dresses coming from the.
hands Of the large designers and
the~ same tendency toward black
and more sombre shades is
noticed in all the demi-season
collections. 1t was only to be
expected after the long run of
brilliant coIors since the begin
ming of the year.
Lucien Lelong is using black
for his smartest race models.
One in black lace has lace coat
trimmed with fluffy silk ruchings:
Another popular model Is or
black surah with white polka
dots, a circular movement carried
out in every detail. The front
and back Of the bodice round
down over the skirt in semi
circle in front and back and the
skirt has two circular flounces
overlapping each other.
Chanel is showing a charming
black dinner frock Of black
mousseline de sole with the
flounce attached to the skirt at
the hipline and edged by ruch
ing. The scarf, which is so
cVNaninl fanfIIPn n1
Channels frocks. is a straight
piece of black chiffon about ten
inches wide and not attached to
the dress. Blanche Lebouvier Is
making some delightful dinner
frocks in black crepe georgette
with underslips or very. discreet
trimming. in rose pink. Some
times the front panel is Of black
lace with the pink showing
beneath and sometimes there is
only a pink rose. This combina-
ton of black and pink is one
OF the lovelist, but must be done
with extreme care to have the
best effects. Simple black chif-
fon evening frocks have circular
fIounces on the skirts and neat
little bodices with scarf about
the neck. Black and white
dresses are very smart with
black and white hats to accom-
pany them.
There seems to be a strong
tendency to get away from the
printed fabrics which have been
so popular for two years. Near
ly all of the shops are showing
solid colors. Lines continue to
be straight, but there Is much
rare 1axe to the skirts.

who had watched the perform
ance, with his pink eyes shining
ing with interest.

they are cheerful to have about.
But they do give a. lot of bother"
''That all depends upon how
you look at it," said Bunny, rest
ing one paw on his hip and look
ing up into my face with a seri-
GUS expression.
''Now, Bunny" said 1, "you
know very well that sparrows,
not only during one season, but
in all seasons-for they never go
away from home like most birds
do cause trouble to farmers and
gardeners and poultry-keepers."
THAT l will admit" and he
stopped for a moment, but there
is much to be said in their favor,
Foxy Grandpa"
You never knew a farmer in
your life, Bunny" insisted,
"who did not tell you that spar
rows not only eat up corn in the
fields but strip off wheat when
it is nearly fipe--and then not
content with that they follow the
grain to the stacks and help
themselves.
quite right" agreed Bunny.
"And how about the gar.
dener?" continued, did you
ever see a gardener who had aHv
love or respect for sparrow?
Don't you know that those little
rascals pick off the crocus flow
ers and lay them down by the
plants and then later on pull
the primroses to pieces and scat.
