Moe wynna Boxing Match
Officially Declared Draw

Notwithstanding the very inclem-
ent weather Saturday night, a fair
sized crowd was in attendance for
the Nels Moe-Wynne fight at the
Farmer-Labor Temple.
Several of the preliminaries had
to be postponed until a future date
owing to the non-appearance Of the
fistically inclined combatants. Bill
Garner was unable to show his
wares for the very patent reason
that there was nobody to fight.
However. two preliminaries made
up of homegrown talent were in the
spotlight for several rounds each,
and all boxers showed up to good
advantage and demonstrated con-
siderable natural ability.
The preliminaries over the main
attraction was announced by How
ard N. Lewis with Fred Crave
officiating as referee, and in few
moments the fight was ON.
The fight went the full ten rounds
although both Moe and Wynne tried
repeatedly for knockout, and the
argument was declared a draw.
Many spectators at the rlngside
claim that it was the best and fast
est boxing match seen in Plenty
wood. especially among big men
Some of the fight fans are plan
ming to stage return engagement
between this pair at Brush Lake on
July Fourth. and If they do meet
again it should be worth going
many miles. Both fighters seemed
in superb condition, and that prob
ably explains why the contest was
declared a draw.

AIbert's Cow

C0rinne is a name
Which has passed into fame;
For Foley's pot COW
Has made her last bow.
Some called her q ''critter"
But she mover was a quitter.
For nineteen long years
She made use of her ears.
She never changed masters;
And all the green pastures
Always welcomed C0rinne
As the English their queen.
Her milk was 80 pure
That as summer complaint cure
1t was used by the mothers

Nor the pink little maid.

Lindbargh Feared Women,
Says Butte Pilot Friend

Butte. May 21.-While the world
was wishing Captain Lindbergh luck
in his hop toward France last night
q Butte man. Harold Lynch. was
sitting in his cozy home at 4002
Hancock avenue knowing that
Slim" would be dining in Paris to-
night.
Lynch. a veteran of the air, with
II years Of flying experience. taught
Lindbergb the art of flying, which
today has made the young Mime
sofa daredevil the most talked OF
individual in the world.
The Butte flier has a fund of in.
teresting stories about Lindbergh
for the transatlantic adventurer and
Lynch spent a year together, the
latte. plotting a plane for crowds in
Nebraska. Colorado, Kansas, Wyo-
ming and Montana cities. and
slim" doing parachute jumps and
other nervy stunts.
All OF the stories that Lynch re-
late show Captain Lindbereh to be
one Of the most uncOncerned, mod.
est and carefree indiyiduals that q
person can imagine,
Slim wasn't afraid OF anything
but women" Lynch said last night
He turned red every time be talked
to one Of the feminine folks"
Lynch met Lindbereh at Lincoln
Neb., in 1922. when the former was
employed at the Lincoln Standard
factory. A man named Rodgers OF
Bird City. Kan. purchased a plane
and Lynch gave him instruction
Later Lynch, Rodeer and Lindbereh
left on transforming trip. LinC.
bergh was mechanic and stunt art
ist. He could fly plane when il
was up but had never taken off OF
landed.
If | remember right, the frs,
time Slim eyer made a landing wa:
at Lodge Grass near the Crow aeen-
cy." MIR. Lynch said last night.
We we're together for about g
year. He did stunts on the wings
and performed with parachute
Jumps.
When the flying season was oveI
we were at Billings. Slim purchased
an old rowboat for a couple of dol
lars and started trip to St. Louis
He floated down the Yellowstone
with a jug of water and some pro.
visions.
Later heard from Slim. He re-
ported that his boat sprung leak
one night while he was asleep and
he had all he could do to keep from
going down"
Lynch described his friend
Slim" as fellow who cared little
for money or glory. He liked ad-
venture and anything in that line
didn't stir him much"
A good example of Linbereh's un-
concern oyer matters that would
frighten the ordinary person into
some other occupation than flying
is shown in an excerpt from one
letter sent by Lindbergh to Lynch.
1t referred to smashup Lind
bergh had in the air with another
plane.
The letter reels off several pages
of airplane gossip and talk of mu-
tual interest and near the end come
the following lines:
The other day Iran into another
fellow in the air. We both jumped.
Nobody hurt. Two bum planes"
Another letter shows "Slim" in
humorous vein. 1t was written

teams, are off to unsuccessful but
not discouraging starts.
The Shamrocks made nine errocs
in losing the Bethlehem Steel in
Baltimore, to 2. They figure to
do lots better than that.
Georgetown was popped, 8 to
5, by the Hampdens, who held
the Baltimore independent cham
piOnship. Georgetown scored
its five runs in the first inning,
and the enemy looked like q set

Flynn and Phipps, Georgetown
pitchers, couldn't check the Hamp-
den sluggers who totaled 10 hits.
Shortstop Alban led the visitors with
four bingles. Eiseman contributed
a home run to Georgetown's rally.
Pitcher letters held the Sham
rocks in check most all the way,
yielding eight hits of which
Sweeney and Smithson, as usual,
got couple apiece.
The two Annapolis entries, Reina
Mercedes and Eastport, fought it
out with Reina Mercedes winning,
6 to a although outhit by fourteen
bingles to seven. Eastport made
errors at critical moments which off
