NEWS ulSpdCCucS 1dSI TIudy
from Sacramento, Cal, carried
the following information:
Jack Dempsey and Harry
Wills will never meet in Cali
fornia for any guarantee purses
that resemble the foreign war
debt, if Boxing Commissioner
William Hanlon of Sacramento
has his way. The Sacramento Bee
yesterday printed statement
from Hanlon in which he bitterly
attacked the consideration of
such a match in California, in
volving purse of $750,000,
such as is being mentioned by
Los Angeles promoters.
In part Hanlon, is quoted as
follows:
Dempsey and Wills might
meet in California, but it will
never be by my vote of approval,
and I win carry fight to the
commission to prevent it in this
state. 1t is utterly absurd to con-
slider paying such amounts as
boxers of their class are demand
ing, and if other states wish to
entertain the idea itA. is entirely
up to them but count California
out"
Bravo! 1t is about time that
somebody in authority and with
influence in the sporting world
puts his foot down on some OF
that half million and million dol
lar stuff. Wise managers and
good publicity agents have
worked the sporting public up
to degree where they will pay
fabulous prices to see. a couple
of big giants poke away at one
another for a few minutes. The
thing is perfectly timed-only
one or two such contests a year
in the meantime every little step
Dempsey makes is heralded- one
day contest is on, the next day
it is off and so on anything to
keep the public interested and
guessing
About Is years ago when Jim
Jeffries tried to regain the heavy
weight championship to the
white race frem JackssJ ehnsan,
the colored pugilist. they fought
out at Reno, Nevada, for a purse
of 100000.

RO4D SIGN IAND4LS

Complaint is made of vandalism in many places
which takes the curious form OF destroying alter
ing road signs. 1t appears alike in the familiar
twisting of street signs in cities and in the less fam
liar bending or complete removal OF highway signs
in the country important routes.
The result is that strangers especially tourists,
are often miles OF their way by sign point
ing IN the wrong direction or are leIt without ade
quae information regarding and other features
of the road ahead
This is queer form of practical Joke. If the
funny young fellows perpetratlng it given still
fines jaiI sentences whenever they were caught,
it would help to straighen their perverted
Of humor.
If there is any inanimate thing on earth that
should tell the truth, it is a road sign. Tamperng
with il may often be comparable to throwing
switch to derail passenger train.

BOOTLEG INCONE TAXES

The collector Of internal revenue in Chicago is 81
ing to collect more than 100000 from wealthy and
defiant bootleggers for profits made and not report
ed by them in 1922, 1923 and 1924
Here is an inspiring spectacle. The government
seeks to collect, by legal process, money made IL
legally, Just as if the income legitimate The
percentage demanded is the as that expected
from citizens who make their money honestly.
1t might be expected that, instead of virtually be-
galzing such profits, the government would demand
the whole of them. Congress, however, while enact

Most recipe, for long life given by those who
themselves have lived to great age are Of little
worth to the generality Of people. But there is
than usual value in this formula, given some
years ago by President Emeritus Eliot OF Harvard,
who died lately at the ripe age Of 92 alert and useful
to the last.
60 to church. he wrote. Keep clean heart and
a good conscience. Give your mind exercise well
as your body-realy think. Exercise regularly,

recently announced by Willys-Over-
land, Inc, to bring an equivalent
large power development from
small dimensions, to the standard
car production for passenger use
in this country.
The rated horsepower of the en-
CINE in this light car is lower than
that of any other light car built in
America, it being rated at slightly
over Is horsepower. The developed
brake horsepower is 81, which is
the highest brake horsepower yet
reached by any stock production
light car, four-cylinder power plant
in this country.
This is in accord with the power
developments of the European light
a motors, which show about 100
per cent greater developed power
than their rated power ability. The
average light four-cylinder motor in
this country shows approximately a
20 per cent increase in developed
power over rated power.
The developed power of the
Whippet motor gives approximately
one horsepower for every Sc pounds
weight in the car, the sedan model
being used for these figures.

VALUABLE COLLECTION
OF OLD COINS GIVEN
STATE OF WYOMING

The state historical department
has received a valuable collection
of coins. the gift coming from Lee
opold Christobal to Mrs. Cyrus
Beard, state historian. Included in
the 400 coins is a collection of gold
pieces from foreign countries. Silver
and copper pieces form the largest
part of the collection and include
money used in all foreign countries
at the present time and in many
earlier periods.
The collection was started sew
eral years 6 and has been in
creased from time to time, the last
gift being made recently. Chris
tobal says that it is not yet COM
plete and more are to follow. He
also will assist in the mounting
and identifying of all pieces in the
collection.
This is not his first contribution
to the department. Three years
ago he loaned a valuable set of
104 airplane pictures and has now
made that a permanent gift. They
show various types of aircraft, ships
which have participated in record
flights, and fields and cities along
the nations airways.
Christobal, who is a native of
Barcelona, Spain, is an aviator
with headquarters at Langley field.
His interest in Wyoming comes
from his residence in the state as
a homesteader. He took up a SOL
dier's homestead on Casper noun
tain and spends much time on his
ranch there. He acted as inter-
prefer in the world war. Many of
his friends wen across to France
and in memory of four of them who
were killed in the war. he has
named four of the springs on his
homestead.
