This effort is made it is declared, Through propa-
ganda intended to Influence the adoption Of the SO
called parking rules over the widest possible area
and particularly in business distrcts.' Street rail
ways ard motor bus companies are held to be mainly
responsible for it.
There may te some such propaganda al work. al
though nothing Of the kind seems have been sus-
pccte3 IN most quarters. It wouldn't be bad stroke
of business, from purely selfish standpoint. if

compete should IT,, rule The latter off the streets.
Yet even if there IS such effort, resentmen,

CLOTHES. .WORE OR LESS

Dr. Knight Dunlap Of John Hopkins University
speaking of the origin and Use Of clothing, says:
Clothes have nothing whatever to do with morality
II simply becomes habit to wear them, whether they
necessary not, and their lack makes people feel
naked. But nakedness IS more a matter Of mind
than body.
Modern dress. however, has done much to reduce
male salacty, Il has made people more sensible in
regard 10 modeSty and immOdeSty'
The wearing Of clothes, ne maintains is really some
what Of nuisance. and it will be ideal situation
whan womens clothing IS standardized and men
wear less.

Boxing Champion Wins Laue in Desperate 7oeto Toe Fight
TWO X. O.'S FEATURE
KENILWORTH SCRAPS

That the ring fans Of Washington
and vicinity are strongly in favor of
boxing was quite evident last night,
when $500 devotees of the square
ring attended the initial card staged
at the kenilworth Arena.
The best bout of the evening was a
ten-rounder, between Young Dencio,
the United States Navy flyweight
champion, and Johnny Myers, the
Army title holder. The decision was
given the Navy lad because of his
boxing ability and whirlwind attacks.
Myers seemed to have lost his punch,
and, although he landed frequently,
his blows apparently did not have
much effect on Dencio.
Tony CorteZ, a local lad, who has
quite q string Of victories to his credit,
was the victim Of overwhelming, and
took the long count for the first time
In his career IN the second round in
his scheduled 10-round bout with Wee

round, Cortez came back in the second

caught him flush on the button. Wig.

from the clinch. and, in falling. Cortez
struck on the back Of his head. The

was out cold from the blow alone.

CARPENTER PICKED
TO DEFEAT HUFFMAN
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. May 21.-HaDdsorne
Georges Carpenter of France tonight
makes another effort in the ring.
The former light-heavyweight cham.
plon OF the world, veteran Of the
World War. who has been a pugilist
since he was 13 years old, will tackle
Sailor Eddie Huffman of the Pacific
Coast in q 10-round contest at Madi.
son Square Garden.
Georges is 80 years old. In all of
his great battles he has given weight
to opponents. Four times he has
gone before the American public and
only once has he been Victorious
that was against Battling Levinsky.
When he returned to America last
Winter he said that he would not
accept engagements to box. But he
was lured and a victory tonight will
place him in line for another chance
at the light-heavyweight crown.
Huffman is a rugged, outstanding
fighter, shifty. but lacking the speed
of the F'renchman. He has been an
''in-and-outer" in his bouts in the
East.
Boxing followers favor the chances
Of gorgeous Georges. who has trained
faithfully for two months in Atlantic
City. They argue that he may have
lost some of his speed, but that he
still possesses the weapon that nearly
shook the heavyweight crown from
the head Of Dempsey at Boyles
Thirty Acres, a lightning right hand.
