ONE ROUND MEANS 4 CHAMPIONSHIP CRUSADER SEEMS GREAT
EST OFFSPRING OF THAT OLD HERO, MAN Or WAR
BY PHILIP MARTIN

THE crowning of the first new
boxing champion of the year
his name, in case you've already
forgotten, is Joe Dundee, and he
is the w~elterweight king-ought
to sound like an event of some
interest and Importance. But. as
a matter of fact. the victory of the
earnest young Italian from Balti-
more over Peter Latzo, the ficti-
tious miner from Scranton. proved
to be little more exciting than the
erasing of a name from the record
books.
No Observation-Disclosures, No
wild acclaim at the ringside. No
pathos in the dropping exit of the
ex-champion. Neither boxer was
known as a killer" or a "mur-
derer." They fought as well as
they could. There were no knock
downs.
Benny Leonard, Jack Sharkey,
Hype Igoe and a flock of critics

cleaner hitter and the winner
Those who did vote for Dundee
said he took the decision on the
margin of ONE ROUND. Dundee
is just a good strong fellow of the
body pummelling variety and a
weak chin. He wears the we1ter-
weight crown for whatever it may
mean to him.

WHITE CROSS FOUNDER
PLANNING CAMPAIGN
Former Cody Newspaper Man and
Drug Addict Heart and Soul
in Work OF Curing
Drug Habit

(From the Seattle Post-Intelligen-
GER, October 15th)
Richard Lackaye, one time bum
and hop-head, who voluntarily and
courageously went to Jail here
seven years ago to rid himself of
the dope habit. who endured weeks
of unspeakable horror and suffering
in a padded cell to emerge cured
and to become the founder of the
greatest anti-narcotic society on
earth, the White Cross, returned to
Seattle yesterday with new plans
for extending his organizations
work.
Lifting himself virtually by his
own bootstraps, Lackaye has trans
formed himself in the brief space
of seven years from a gutter dreg
to a successful man. Monday eve
ming he will appear before the
mother chapter of the White Cross
in the Henry building to outline
his ideas for a nationwide lecture
tour to further a new antelope
drive"
Mr.. Lnckaye will be remembered
by many Cody people. He was ed
itor of the Cody Enterprise at one
time, and held many other positions
during the years when he was fight
ing hard to free himself OF the
dope habit. A man of ability and
unusually pleasing personality, his
Cody friends will be pleased to
know that he has won in the "big
fight and that he is now %endeavor-
to, do the work of a useful citizen.
A recent picture of him, which ap-
peared with the full column article
regarding him and his White Cross
work. shows a man considerably
aged since he left Cody, but I'M

CONSTRUCTION OF FARM
SHOP WELL UNDER WAY
Work Being Done by Ag Glass
Under Direction of Sweitzer-
Will Mean Much to Farm
~ Shop Work

At the annual school election in
Cody last summer a three-quarter
mill levy was voted to build and
equip q farm shop for use in the
Vocational Agricultural course. The
shop that has been used for the
past four years was considered in
adequate and if the department
was to continue its growth new
quarters should be provided.
The work of building the shop
is now being done by the boys in
the Agricultural classes under the
direction of p. f. Sweitzer. A
carpenter is in charge of the wood
work, but all other work is being
done by the boys themselves.
AT present the exterior of the
building is completed except for
the stucco finish, which will be COM
pleted as the next project. The in
terror finishing of the building will
be done during the winter as part
of the regular shop course.
The shop is t~wenty-four feet by
fifty feet, with ten foot walls and
has a concrete floor. The ROOF is
of ruberoid shingles and the stucco
finish will be colored to correspond
with the brick in the high school
building. The shop is located di-
rectly south of the high school.
Sewer connections will have been
made with the high school, and
both gas and steam heat have been
taken from the main boiler room
of the high school.
When the interior of the build
ing is completed the walls will be
covered with ship-lap and painted.
Plenty of window space has been
provided and a large door In the
east entrance will permit the bring
ing in of large farm machinery for
repairing. -Four hand FORCES will
be installed and the necessary tools
for a mechanical course will be
provided.
Separate and complete units will
be supplied for soldering, painting,
hot and cold metal work, wood
work and other necessary opera
tions. The woodwork will be paint

HEAVIER LOADING OF
FREIGHT CARS ADVISED

One of the pertinent require
ments of the Transportation Act
demands of railroads thai they
SO administer their. properties as to
adequately, efficiently and econom-
ically erv their patrons.
The Central Western Shippers
Advisory Board, composed entirely
Of shippers. receivers and the pub
lie interested in mutual shipping
problems. and pledged to voluntar-
lily cooperate with the railroads
through suggestion and criticism,
designed to aid in the railroads eff
forts toward maintaining adequate
service and car supply, desire to
point out some of the things which
the carload shippers and receivers
may do to help insure these re-
suits.
The return movement of empty
cars from the eastern markets is
one of the most uneconomical things
the railroads have to contend with
and is absolutely necessary if
this part of the country is to have
an adequate car supply for all
shipping needs.
The handling of thousands of
these empty cars can be eliminated
with the help of shippers and re-
~ceivers, for example: The average
load carried in every freight car
loaded in 1926 was 35.1 tons. If
this figure is increased by n ton
per car in 1927 it will save the
equivalent handling of 1860
cars.
Such an accomplishment would
have further compensating results
to patrons of railroads through re-
auctions in demurrage bills, inven-
tory costs and satisfied customers
receiving prompt delivery of their
orders.
The Board recognizes that all
commodities cannot be loaded to
the maximum of car capacity-but
it is mofed to suggest this:
"By receivers wherever practi-
cable buvsng in carload rather than
specified quantities.; shippers load
ing cars to their maximum carrying
capacity where they are not limited
by receivers requirements. and by
both railroad and patron cooperat-
ing. Wyoming industry must reap
direct and wholesome compensating
benefits"
Let the slogan be. Everybody
Load One Ton More where Practi-
cable"

BASIN EDITOR HAS BIG
HOPES FOR PARK COUNTY

Park county will alone increase
the valuation of the state of Wy
oming about $4,000 900 mex. yea
according to p. ~P. Anderson of
Basin, editor of the Basin Repub-
lican. Mr.. Anderson made this
statement recently while at Chey-
Ienne. He himself has oil interests
in the Basin and is convinced that
a rising oil market is all that is
necessary to bring about the early
development of n of the greatest
oil structures in the northwest.
Mr.. Anderson pointed out that
about % rigs are now drilling in
the Oregon Basin, and that of these
seven or eight are standard or ro-
tary; that the power line from the
S~hoshone dam has been completed
and electric power is being used
in operations, and that these fac
tors with many others should give
the large additional valuation.
Leasing of 1906 additional
acres in the Oregon basin to the
Producers and Refners was COM
pleted this week.

ed and storage racks for lumber
will be built overhead.
When completely finished a do
nation day will be held for the
purpose of securing necessary tools
for shop work. Any other tools
needed will be supplied from reg
ular sources.
We hope to complete the shop
before the end of the present Sc
mester so that regular work in
classes and shop may. be followed
during the last semester. The cost
is estimated at $500. but in all
probability will be less than that
figure. When the work is finished
the boys will have a thorough
course in plumbing. concrete work,
