DEMPSEY WILL

fBy Dispatch A. T. wirel


ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Sept A.
Jack Dempsey, desiring to avoid the
danger of going stale, decided to sus-
pend all training activities for three
days next week, starting Tuesday.
The worlds heavyweight cham
pion believes the layoff will put him
on edge to wind up his intensive
training with a feverish burst of
energy, just as he did at Saratoga
Springs, three years ago when he
trained for Luis Angel Firpo.
Dempsey says the peak Of his con-
ditioning grind is just around the
corner and to work continuously,
without further Interruption, would
invite the risk of entertaining.
The heavyweight champion, before
engaging in today's workout, bal
anced the scales at 1876 pounds, in
dicating that he possibly will enter
the ring against Gnee Tunney in
Philadelphia, September 23, Weighing
heavier than for any of his ring
engagements since winning the title
from Jeff willard. He does not
figure to take off more than two or
three pounds in the home stretch
of training. Dempsey, when he won
the title, weigher 1877 pounds, and
always has been within a pound or
+ two of that figure in his subsequent
battles.

Home Run Decline

Has home run hitting decreased with
the coming Of the less lively ball? 1t
has, and to a marked degree.
The homer epidemic reached it's
highest level last season, all modern
major league records being smashed.
At this time a year ago 991 circuit
clouts had been poltd jim the two big
leagues. OF these, the National led
with SAG.
Over corresponding period this
campaign the total number of four
base blows is but TIT, a decrease of
almost 275. The American has 363 to
it's credit and the National 354, show
ing how even the two organizations
have been running.
Going back to 1924 we find drop
to 69S up to the. latter part of August,
but in 1923 the figures were SIS and

GAS TO Be POPULAR
WITH CODY CONSUMERS
Majority Of Residents will Connect
Plumbers Doing Rushing
Business

Gas is to be popular fuel for the
people of Cody if the name in
which it is being accepted is any
indication. Practically all of the
residents of the town are planning
on connections within the near
future, and connections are being
made daily as fast as the equipment
and the men engaged in the work
can get to the jobs.
Four or five of the leading stores
are handling gas appliances and the
Rocky Mountain Gas company has
a crew of men, who are available
for the people who wish them to
make the connections. The exper-
fence of the men at this office is at
the service of the prospective user,
and every effort is being put forth
by the company to see that the
most approved equipment is to be
used.
The rate to be charged in Cody
is comparable to the rate charged
in many cities much larger. than
Cody. and the only known rates
lower exists in small towns where
the gas exists practically at the
door of the consumer, and where
little expense was entailed in de-
livering the product to the user.
The highest rate charged in Cody
is virtually soc per thousand feet,
the additional sc only being charg-
ed to facilitate the collection of &C
counts. On the sliding scale of a
reduction of SC for each additional
one hundred thousand feet, the
heavy consumer may secure a rate
which will make the use of the gas
practical, and in many cases an
economy owe the use of coal for
fuel.

OSTLAND INTERESTS WIN
INJUNCTION LAW SUIT
Judge Tidball Hears Oil Cases and
Upholds Contracts Held by Ost-
land n Associates-Case
Heard Thursday

In the case in which Otto ].
Rausch and his associates of Basin,
Wyoming, were plaintiffs, and Fred
G.. Ostland and his associates were
defendants, Judge Tidball rendered
a decision in favor of the defend
ant. The case was one in which
the Rausch interests were endeavor-
ing to void a certain drilling con-
tract held by Ostland in the Oregon
Basin oil fields. They had secured
a temporary restraining order to
keep Ostland from proceeding with
his drilling operations, and had
hoped to show that his equipment
Vas inadequate and thereby the con-
tract given to him void.
The case was one in which much
conflicting evidence was presented.
Judgement was rendered for the
dfendant, with tn plaintiffs bearing
the court costs. C. A. Earring was
counsel for Mr.. Rausch while Paul
R. Greever of Cody represented the
Ostland interests.
Judge v. j. Tidball of the Sec
ond Judicial district presided on the
bench during the trial of this case.
