 Tn Georgia, Senator George was 1enominated, defeating Justice Rus sell, who voted against prohibition" he said. Congressman Upshaw lost to Leslie J. Steele, who may rot be as vocal as Upshaw, but declared dry. The vote of Georgias congress sional delegation will be as dry as ever"
 The defeat of Senator Lenroot. in the Wisconsin republican primaries was laid to party factional differ ences by Mir.

TUNNEY PREPARED
 FOR HARD SIEGE
Challenger Outlines Strenuous : Program for Two Days

Stroudsburg, Pa, Sept 10 R)- Restoration of nervous energy by
 realization, which is Gene Tunney's epigrammatic way of saying that it
 is good to loaf occasionally, served today to set the challenger up for two days of hard work Saturday and Sunday. Weather permitting he ex- poets to box tomorrow and the next day Today he satisfied to walk and
 run between nine and ten miles, en-
 joy motor ride along scenic moun-
 tain roads and bat a golf ball about for a while.
 Tunney regretfully declined an in-
 vitation to go to Delaware Water
 Gap to be formally presented to the senate convention of the American Legion there. He gratefully ac- knowledged his appreciation of ring side visits from many of his former
 buddies in arms here and would have liked to pay a return call but
 shied from the amount of hand shaking involved.
 At the moment the challenger's chief source of worry is the infor- nal entertaining he is forced to do. He is good natured soul and a suggestion that man, woman or child has driven 100 or more miles to see him has thus far brought him from his quarters to shake hands. George Ransberry, volun- teer chief at the Tunney camp, went into action and something may be done. Ransberry announced that he was not a catCh-as- -catch-can ed they were served for that minute and not a quarter or half hour later. While visitors have been telling Tunney that they knew him when" the soup has been getting cold and Ransberry, weighing 300 threats if need be, has ruled that the dinner hour must be just that. The chef, who is looking after the boxers gastronomic welfare as contribution to the patriotic en- thusiasm of Stroudsburg in having Illu litltt IS utptluGlltlS "tdllIly and cooks only for love of the game. There was a suggestion about the camp that the law having been laid down it may not be so easy to crash the gate hereafter.
 Billy Gibson, Tunney's manager, today reiterated his conviction that new attendance records will be made at the sesquicentennial bout September 23. "I am certain that more people will pay more money to see this bout than ever before" said Gibson today just before start ing to Philadelphia to try to pur- chase several thousand tickets on his own account. Gibson made this prediction in spite of the fact that top prices at Philadelphia will be many dollars under previous de- mands for tickets.
 Lou Rink, the trainer, and Gib- son will be two of the three hand lers in Tunney's corner for the championship bout. The third has not been selected. Gene will be we'll handled" promised Gibson.

The mountain air of Wales and the active open-air life of the tented col ony gave the Prince such a keen appetite that he could not resist the smell of trout grilled with bacon.

They are clean living, clean play ing and clean spoken lads and they deserve all the credit that can be given them. If this city doesn't want to support team of this quality and caliber, then it doesn't want to support anything. This goes without saying, however, that the Legion team won't want for anything now or in the future. The team is going to Providence tomor- row and if we don't miss our guess, it is going to win and go to New York. We confidently expect to see New Britain battling 1t out in Philadelphia next month for the national championship and if we had the long green, we would place it on the local team to win the national championship. We're go- ing to see that game in Philly if 1t is played.
