(BY JIMMY POWERS)

New ' Ork, Sept. o-POOr old Tex Rickard. Yesiree, poor old Tex sure has it tough. This fellow who never did nothing to nobody has to get out and work-collecting dollars.
 For the next few months the heavyweight camps will be buzzing like bee hives.
 Of course. there is the Gene Tun- ney-Jack Dempsey fight But did you ever stop to realize the tremcn- dous sucker list waiting to be pluCked after it"
 Tex is looking beyond that single night in September, It is likely that Dempsey on the atrocious Cradio re- ports 10 the contrary form he showed against Sharkey will be beaten again by the manly Marine. Whether he is or is not does not alter the situation, There must be logical contender for the cham pion, whoever he is to face next summer.
 In the first place, Sbarkey will be built up a second time. Many crs- toners are convinced he can take the shattered, bronzed hulk that once was Dempsey, any day in the week. The Boston lad is just q smart-aleck youngster of 24 and he has plenty of time 10 come along.
 Then there is Scnor Pauline, he of the shining gold teeth and the wide wide grin. The Senor made himself solid with the fans by smacking Harry Wills on the whiskcrs in a most convincing way. Pauline may, for all of that. still be a bum-but until he is licked you cannot prove 1t.
 We also have one Jack Delaney. The handsome Mr. Delaney has given lip his light-heayy title to go after the big fellows He seems to be much better than the night he faced Jim Maloney. He has the class and he has the punch and there is more than one wise guy who thinks the Maloney thing was in the burIap.
 Include Tom Heeney. This hairy New Zealand came so close to whip- ping the clumsy Pauline that one judge and several ringsiders gave him the verdict. Heeney is a bit slow but he can take it and has a wallop in both fists. Other men have gone far with less.
 Jim Maloney may get back into the running, and there is George Godfrey, the big black, who once hit Jack Sharkey so often in a bout there were personal pronouns all over the canvas. Both should be counted in.
 Nothing would please Tex Rickard better than 10 see Paul Berlonbach plug along again. Der Paulie all ways was popular on account of his sluEging and his first three como back steps have been disposed Of When Delaney quit his throne, there appeared Tommy Loughran and Mike MCTigue for the vacancy. Der Paulie will be waiting around for a look-in.
 So what with Sharkev, Maloney, Godfrey, Heeney. Delaney. Pauline, l]erl"nhaCh. not to mention the loser Of the Tunnoy-Dempsey match thrown in it looks like a very, very busy autumn for MT, Rickard
 Of course MT. Rickard is very, very sad at having to do all the work matching all these fellows to make alt that money.
 IesIroe, it's just too bad. Come on over here in the corner. Tex. and have good cry, We'll cry with you

chants or concerns represented has
in clever way sought to bring ont
some particular point of interest and
in order to thoroughly appreciate
the effort it must be seen.

sires. 1t IS a huge affair 500 feet
long and 100 feet wide.
Among the most attractive dis
plays exhibited in the "Big Top"
is that of the Los Angeles Agricul-
tural association. The booth is
beautifully made, having stucco
facing. Within is miniature city.
1t shows its industrial centers, rail
roads, the residential section and is
supported at the rear by n canvas
portraying the hills and dells of the
northern county. Perhaps the fea-
ture lies not in the miniature view
of city but in the display of
fruit and produce which lies before
it, Excellent specimens of grape
fruit, oranges. dates and other
produce raised in and about Los
Angeles are arranged in most at
tractivc manner.
Rivaling this exhibit is the one
shown recently at number of

tered by the horticulture department

cv eases and numerous chemicals.

of the various valley towns.
Then of course there is the mid
way where one may spend stray
dime to get three shots at the color

piece to see one of the world $
freaks or his fortune told. The
hot dogs and pink lemonade

DR.. Phillips commented on the value
of the work being done by the modern

The records for this year show 50

The largest percentage of victims
