Fighter Hurries
To Dying Wife
by United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9. - Bud
Taylor of Tcrre Hautc, Ind, world S
bantamwcight champion, left here
carly today in a western air express
plane enroute to Chicago from where
ne will go to Terrc Haute where his
wife is reported dying.
News of Mrs. Taylor's serious
illness was given the bantam king
as he stepped from the fight ring
last night in the Olympic auditori-
um after winning hard 10-round
decision from Johnny Farr. The
title was not involved.
Eddie Long, the fighters manag-
er, said that Mrs. Taylor recently
underwent an operation for appen-
dicitis and pcrltonitis developed.
Not wishing her husband to worry
on the eve of his fight with the
Cleveland Italian, she directed q
telegram be sent to Taylor in which
she said she felt better. The sec
ond wire came after the fight was
underway and was held until Taylor
had won.
The plane bearing the fighter will
make a stor at Salt Lake enroute to
Chicago. The flyer is due in Salt
Lake at 1:3O p. III. today and Chi
cago at S:3O tomorrow morning.

WHEN YOUR

Difficulty in breathing and heart
palpitation are symptoms of high

life suddenly. Our modern habits OF
life areresponsible, putting toogreat
a strain upon the vital organs, espe-
ciallyih the liver. When the liver be-
comes limp" or sluggish it fails to

ons formed in food waste. The pois-
ons then permeate the system. af.
fecting stomach, kidneys, heart and

nothing better for this, as medical
men today know, than a little OK
gall. Ok gall is great natural stim-

tablets are genuine OK gall in dainty

CENTRAL UNION
HAS HARD FIGHT
ARMISTICE DAY

With the defeat of Holtville at
the hands of Calexico in the border
town Saturday Central Union still
has chance to cop first place hon
ors in the valley football league by
winning the three games remaining
on its schedule. The assignment is
rather stiff one, however, the
team facing Holtville in two of
these contests and Calexico in the
other.
Coach Armstrong's boys, however,
will have the advantage Of playing
two of the games at home. They
will meet Holtville here Friday af-
ternoon, Armistice Day at 2:30.
Coach Armstrong is giving his
boys plenty of grilling this week
and has stressed the point of fight
ing all the way. The fact that Cen
trail went into the game at Brawley
Saturday with go lead in the sec
ond half and played listless football
for the next few minutes cost them
the grid game.
But the coach believes that the
fact that Brawley held them to a
tie is a sufficient lesson in the mat
ter of "keeping on their toes.'
The game Friday promises to be
one of the stiffest battles for Cen
tral. Holtville has been playing
great football thus far this season
and will give Central plenty of wor-
ries. The game is scheduled to get
going at 2:30 o'clock.

Southern Sierras
Tie With Firemen
In League Race

Scoring at least one run in each
inning the Southern SicrIas Power
company team continued its winning
streak to four straight in the Ell
.Ccntro Indoor baseball league at
Wilson field last night. The power
boys completely smothcrcd the Gold
en- State Milk outfit, registering a
% to II win. The victory places
them in a tie with the Firemcn for
first place honors.
The Golden State boys opened
with three run rally in the first
inIiing but the "Swattin - Sierras
collected five in their turn at bat.
From that time on it was a parade
Of the bases with them.
Two fast games were played in
the American league last night, the
American Railway Express team
swamping the Elks in the first CON
test, 10 to / and Pickwck Stages
nosing out the Inland Empire Gas
Company in the final contest, II to
13.
The Elks never did get started
i'll the initial contest, the package
smashcrs smashing out hits which
were too hot for the ant4ered herd
to do anything with. Elton Chris
tian, boss at the county Jail, led the
Elks to slaughter and was 50 dis
gusted with some Of his alleged play
ers that he threatened to keep them
up at his workshop for u week or
two.
Old Jack Tackett stepped out to
the mound for the stage drivers in
the second contest, tucked his white
beard into his belt, and pitched good
ball. Jack is feeling his years, for
nearly complete inning went by
without his doing any grabbing.
Clyde Steele, the flyweight catcher,
backed up Old Jack in good style.
The gas boys tried hard to tie up
the game i'll their last appearance at
bat, but could not quite make the
grade.

ative TO the alleged secret confab
and the whisperings included many
accusations. regarding the pending
Rinkcy-Dink game with the Press
team. They also contained such
words as bribery and that rigid ac-
tion was about to be taken by the
president.
Frank Richmond, manager of the
Rinkcy Dinks, declared positively
that none of his boys had been offer
ed bribcs and appeared surprised
when it was suggested that some
Of them might have offered the
bribes.
''If my ball club is unable TO
beat the Press without the aid of n
bfibc, | IN ready to accompany
Super Weir up to his ranch right
now,' Richmond said.
No names. were. mentioned by
those supporting the rumor. They
simply described the player as be
ing an outfielder and that as Il
bribc he offered the choice of any
o. the Baskets in his establishment
with Il free funeral thrown in. 1t
is intimatcd that if the Press boys
held out long enough thcy'll also
get free lot at Mountain View.
But the big tusslc is slated for
Wilson Field Thursday night, with
al and President Zinn remarked
I" If the Press boys strike out or
make any errors, I'll know they We
been bribcd and we'll sift this to
the bottom.
Richmond sold two of his star
players "down the river yester-
day. "Prof. > Gruwcll and "Doc -
Cunningham went on the selling
block, the manager asserting he got
S25 apiece for them. With the pro-
crcds he bought Jack Welch of the
Southwick Company, which gives
Frothcr Richmond just one ball
player on his team of misfits.
The ''wise money! around the
town is backing the Press to win on
tie theory that brains can trim
brawn any night in the week.
