MAINE GOSSIP
A Cure for Gloomy Days Work

When days are dark and gloomy.
And things seem all askew.
Just manufacture sunshine:
Just think of skies all blue:
Just think of all things cheerful,
And sing a happy song.
And hunt up things to laugh about,
To help the day along.
Make those about you cheerful
With merry words and smile,
The clouds can't last forever,
Forget them for a while.
So manufacture sunshine,
And defy the gloomy day:
And almost before you know it,
Clouds will have passed away.
Mary d. Brine.

Of Boxing

NEW YORK, June 4.-of late
years it has become fashionable to
refer to boxing as q business
rather than q sport, because Of the
vast sums involved in such huge
shows as that for the benefit Of
the italian hospital fund at the
Polo grounds, on June 10.
The business aspect Of boxing
was made more pronounced than
ever today, when arrangements
were made to sell tickets for the
Italian show at ten banks or bank
branches. So far as is known, this
Is the first time in the history Of
pugilism that tickets for boxing
show have been placed on sale at
banking institutions.
The banks where tickets may be
obtained are East River National,
$50 and 1851 Broadway; 4647 Thi-d

KEARNS PILOTS
OWENS, LIGHT
HEAVY

LOS ANGELES, June 4.-Burn-
ing one more bridge between Jack
Dempsey and himself, Jack Kearns
has purchased the contract of
Ernie Owens, light heavyweight OF
Los Angeles. Owens Is twenty-one
wears old and regarded as the most
likely heavyweight prospect the
coast has developed in the last
year.
He was born in Virginia, but has
lived twenty years in Los Angeles
with his parents. He has met and
defeated Eddie Huffman, Lew Teol-
linger, Roy Cliffe, Vic Alexander,
Kid Mexico and other topnotchers.
and has lost. but three decisions.
He has never been knocked out.
Until Kearns took ovel his con-
tract Owens was managed by Fred
Neumerkel, one OF the pioneers OF
the four-round game. Neumerkel
took Owens three yars aSC, nursed
him along and taught him all he
knows of the boxing game. In the
three years Naumerkel has handled
him Owens has gained f.'-Ly pounds
in weight. Eeuinerkcl says that
in another year Owens will be a
great 190-pounder. At present
Owens best fighting weight is be-
tween 165 and 172 pouEds.

light heavyweight III the country"
Kearns said yesterday. 1--WE
looked them all over odt this way
and he has everything that ought
to make him a champion and q

for the championship of the world.
He is but twenty years old and
needs more development before
tackling the topnotchers. Mean
while, under the watchful eye of
his father, he is building himself
up to a place where he will pack
the punch needed in a champion
of the world. Already he is one
of the cleverest boxers in the ring
and should have little trouble out
pointing Jack Stone tonight.
Jack Stones record Is not known
in this section, yet he has faced
many of the best middleweights and
light heavies in the game. He
fought Mike McTigue in Canada
and, seeking a title contest in this
country, the genial Michael said
thumbs down on the project. After
a hot mixup in Buffalo with Paul
Berlenbach, now light heavyweight
champion, Stone went to New
Orleans only to have young Marullo
refuse to face him.
At Fall River, Mass, Stone bat
tied Jack Delaney, who is now
matched with Berlenbach for a title
contest in New York on July IL.

champion to the floor and was
entitled to a kayo decision. But he
was given what is termed in ring
circles "a Massachusetts decision"
and Delaney emerged a contender,
though clearly beaten.
Stone is said to be Of the rush.
ing, aggressive type. With Strib-
ling a fancy boxer, skilled in pro-
tecting himself at all times, yet
possessing enough power to wear
down his rival, tonight's contest
should be worth seeing.
The semi-final will see Eddie An
derson, the Baltimore heavyweight,
and Tom McKiernan, who claims
the championship of Ireland, facing
each other.
Young Denc1o, midget Filipino,
will meet Young Slamey, Florida

as to which would win, though
Jodoin battled with all his might.
