They admit that a man may enter

CATHOLIC REVOLT"
IS CALLED FAILURE
Mexican Minister of interior
Says Clergy Made Mistake
in Movement.

by the AsbOCldteu FFess.
MEXICO CITY. January 21.--Adal-
berto Tejeda minister of interior, is
quoted by the newspaper Excelsior as
declaring that the Catholic rebellion
has passed its peak.
The Catholic clergy, he said. made
fundamental mistake in attempting to
organize such a movement. The up.
risingS now being put down by the
federal troops were the maximum eff
forts of which the clergy were capable,
he added
Rebellion Due to Failure.
The political and social defeat of the
clergy was long ago attained; logically
the armed rebellion was due to failure.
However, if the army had not con
trolled the situation, and the revolu-
ton instead of being stamped out had
gained in Vigor, the world would have
witnessed all the revolutionary forces
rush forth to the support of the gov
eminent.
Evidence of this, the minister said,
was seen in numerous demonstrations
by the peasants, workers and Liberal
elements on behalf of President Gales
throughout the country.
The transcendental Importance of
the clergy's defeat, he continued,
would soon be appreciated. The first
benefit to be derived from it would
be the ''unhindered evolution of the
Mexican mentality"
Rebel activities apparently have sub.
sided. as no important military opera
tions were reported in the last "a
hours, either officially or in press dis
patches. Only few unimportant in
surgent groups gave signs of life.

SpOft!'T
I guess I'll start at the top of
that questionable and work my
way down. I consider football the
roughest sport-yes, rougher than
boxing. I've seen as many as a
half dozen men knocked out in a
football game. I've never seen
more than one man knocked out in
q boxing match.
I've always regarded wrestling
as the most brutal sport and still
do. There are certain holds in
wrestling that are cruel: much too
torturesome for the comfort of the
spectator who knows what's going
on. Many a spectator at a wrest-
ling match Is unaware of the tor
ture inflicted by vise-like holds that
cause terrific pain.
And now for the next ques-
tiOn. l believe that champion.
ship tennis has more action
than any other sport. Men like
LacOSte or Tilden cover a ter.
rifle amount Of ground i'm the
course Of q match. There's
action from start to finish.
A hard-fought contest finds The
players all over the court most tf
the time. A back-court player Ike
Nat Niles, the old Boston star, is
q rare exception. Maurice Nc
Loughlin. once the king of American
tennis players, was probably the
most dynamic athlete that ever
lived. In was the combination of
tennis. the game of greatest action.
and a fiery personality, that made
this possible.
What sport is the severest test of
q mans temperament? Golf, un.
questionably. This may be a strange
statement for a fight chamnion +o
make, but I believe that the long.
drawn-out nerve strain of a hard
fought golf match puts a mans
temperament to more of test than
any other sport.

nothing equals rowing for sustained
