KAPLAN HURTS HAND
AS HE WHIPS CELLO
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 4.-Louis
kid Kaplan, who dropped the
featherweight boxing crown several
weeks ago, has made an impressive
debut as lightweight at the expense
of an injured left hand.
Sometime during his contest with
Tommy Cello of Los Angeles at the
Greensboro Stadium last night Kap-
lan's left found hard spot and will
have to be X-rayed before the extent
of the damage Is known. He won al.
most every round of the 10-round
contest and had his opponent near a
knockout in the eighth.
Kaplan scaled 1874 and appeared to
have as much speed as ever. He re-
linquished the featherweight crown
because of inability to make the
weight without endangering his
health.

Kearns Spouts About Feat.

I made plenty of noise out Of

of the new wonder, who was breaking

blow. 1t had actually happened, but

again. I blasted him from one end
of the country to the other. l would
make him fight Jack or quit the ring,
and I began to think that this latter
was what he would do. The stories
of Jacks hitting were being laid right
before his eyes at every meal. He
couldn't duck them.
The news of Dempsey's achieve
ments electrified Charley Murray, the
leading promoter at Buffalo. He sent
me a rush offer to meet Carl Morris.
I wasn't quite ready for that
match, for l had put Dempsey in bur-
lesQue following the, fight with Bren-
nan and he was going big. I was
offering $500 to any man who would
stay four rounds with Jack. The old
John l.. Sullivan stuff revived, but 1t
was a riot. We made quite a little
tour and then I took up the matter of
the Morris bout with Murray. The
match was closed by wire and I prom
ised to have Dempsey in Buffalo q
few days before the fight.
Snowbound in Blizzard.
We started on time all right, but
ran into blizzard on the way and
We're snowbound. I'll never forget the
morning we finally got into Buffalo.
1t was the day of the fight and Muir
ray was leaping. He had had no
chance to show Dempsey at work in
Buffalo, and the newspaper boys had
about decided that we had run out
on the match. It certainly looked that
way. Rather unusual for fighter to
get in on the same day of an impor-
tant bout, and this was important
with Buffalo and US, too.
We went to the Iroquois Hotel. 1t
got Murray on the phone and he came
tearing for US.
Dempsey lay on the bed resting.
And to tell the truth he looked pretty
low physically. When Murray came
into the room he took one glance at
Dempsey and then began to look all
over. winding up in the bathroom.
All the time he was chattering about
the big house and the crowd that we
would have had had 1 brought my
man in few days earlier. Looking
at Dempsey on the bed again, he
turned to me and said: where's

was in the room. Are you kidding
me? Where's Dempsey"
Jack still lay stretched out on the
bed, not giving Murray q tumble.

Naco Store Of Sarkis

Damage estimated az between $4,000
and $4,000 was oone TO the Naco
dry goods store owned by Sarkis
Dominguez, by fire which broke out
in the building about 1920 o'clock
Saturday night.
A call for aid was sent in to the
Bisbee department. few minutes
after the alarm, when it was feared
that the volunteer fire department
of Naco could not prevent the flames
from spreading. Equipment from
Station No. 2, of Bisbee, responded
to the call but the flames were prac-
tically under control before the Bis
bee department reached the scene.
Although buildings adjoining the
store, in the same block, were saved
from damage, the store, fixtures and
stock of the dry. goods establishment
was practically a total loss. A stock
of more than $4,000 was in the builde

GASOLINE PRICE
GOES UP AGAIN
lRv nisnarch a p. WlreA

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The pendulum
of gasoline prices, which swung down
ward from August to November of
last year, and then started upward
again, started to climb higher today
when the Sinclair Refining company
announced an increase of half a cent
a gallon in railroad tank car lots at
New York, Philadelphia and all At
lantic coast terminals. The new tank
car prices is 12 cents a gallon.
The announcement of higher gaso-
line prices by Sinclair refining came
within a few hours of an advance of
25 cents a barrel in Mid Continent
crude by the Sinclair Crude Oil Pur-
chasing company, in which several
other companies joined later in the
day. Higher crude prices were re-
garded as inevitable because of the
premiums being paid in the mid-con-
tinent field by purchasers in need of
oil, and the steady decrease in crude
production during the last few months.
The American Petroleum institute
reported a decrease of is, 200 barrels
in the daily average of gross crude
oil production in the week ended
January 16, bringing the total to
1,947,600 barrels, the lowest since last
April. With the exception of the
week ended November 81, production
had shown, a decrease for 10 weeks.
