because of the wider opportunities
of dogs to run about freely, there
are likely to appear more and more
cases of hydrophobia or rabies due
to mad dog bites.
This is condition which is at
tracing increasing attention all
over the United States. The In
stitute of Medicine of Chicago. for
instance. has Just issued a special
report in the form of public
warning. From January to May,
1926. the heads of GO dogs were
examined by the lralth depart
ment. In five of these the brains
indicated the presence Of special
conditions that are associated with
rabies.
In the sam. period in 1927. Sc
heads were examined. of which II
indicated the changes. In 1928,
704 heads We're examined and SCI
of these gave evidence OF rabic
infection This condition is un-
precedented in the history of Chi
cago and probably of that of any
other larg. American city.
From August. 1919. to August.
1927, there was not one death
from mad dog bite in Chicago.
whereas in the ten months preced-
ing July. 1928, there were 10
deaths in Chicago as contrasted
with 50 human deaths in the
whole United States in 1927.
In its analysis of the condition
the Institute of Medicine recon-
mends strict enforcement of the
city ordinance for at least 30 days
Rabies can be eradicated by the
restriction of the liberty of un-
muzzled dogs to the premises OF
their owners. and by the destruc-
ton of all stray. unmuz=led dogs.

AVALON, Santa Catalina Island,

the Chicago Cubs from getting much

pitching and the playing of some
fungoj ball being the only activities in
the National leaguers' spring training

fifteenth. Phillip Granville, of
Hamilton, Ont, who holds the Ca
madam walking title, was nine
teenth in today's lap.
Charles Hart of Southampton,
England, grand little man and old
est in the race, pitted his 63 years
and an indomitable courage against
the terrific heat. He hobbled in
during the late afternoon while the
few persons comprising this COM
munity cheered him to turn. He
had been on the road 10 hours and
10 minutes and came in 42nd to-
Gay. His elapsed time to date
stood tonight at 43 hours, rs, min
utes and 20 seconds.
The first casualty in the mara
thon came tonight when Walter
Ricketts,, Southampton, Ont, was
struck down by an unidentified mo-
torist. Witnesses said the car came
from the opposite direction to the
runner and was travelling. at high
speed, pitching from side to side.
Ricketts, received two fractured
ribs. The accident occurred 10
miles from Bagdad and the in
jured man was taken to hospital.
Among the half dozen or more
who went out of the race definitely
today were two who had held places
among the leaders in the earlier
laps. August Eager, Finnish run

from the contest with a bad case
of sore feet, and John Gaughan of

United States on the last lap OF

Something can be said for the
democracy OF tennis, too, with the
advent to international play Of Abe,
a former ricksha boy.
From game that in years past
was reserved for the wealthy anc
society OF a few countries, tennis
mas developed to point where more
than 80 nations enter the Davis cup
tournament with playing talent drawn
from all ranks.
This democratic growth has rIeen
a big factor in the triumphs OF
France, where all classes have adopt

States last year were a former ball
boy, a. pump salesman, a sporting
goods dealer, and a son OF a wealthy

ENGLISH RUNNER,
"a, HOLDS LEAD
IN BUNION RACE

BAGDAD, Calf, March 8 H9-
Averaging nearly seven miles an
hour under a burning sun and over
a roadway thickly coated with dust,
Arthur Newton, 44-year-old mara
thoner, entered from Rhodesia,
passed over the finish line at this
small stopping point in the Mojave
desert to win the sixth lap of the
Los Angeles to New York marathon.
The stretch today was 41.9 miles
and the gaunt British campaigner
chalked up the stunning time of six
hours, 33 minutes and 80 seconds,
made in weather of "a degrees
temperature in the open. Already
lowest in total elapsed time since
the foot racers left Los Angeles
last Sunday, he added substantially
to his lead today with mark OF
81 hours and two minutes for the
207.5 miles covered.
Newton, holder of the 100-mile
running championship of England,
kept up throughout the grind to-
day the same steady pace that
brought him victory in yesterdays
lap. Setting his face into the sun
at 1929 o'clock this morning, he
logged tirelessly over the long trail
of dirt and gravel. Just 21 miles
from Mojave Wells, the starting
point, he passed up Ed Gardner of
Seattle, long distance star, who had
showed his heels to 154 other rum
ners and walkers until then.
A stop in Ludlow to change shoes
and receive attention was costly
one for the Seattle athlete, for it
was then that Newton passed him.
Gardner also checked in at the con-
troll station here in good condition.
His time today was hours, Is
minutes and 40 seconds, making
his elapsed figures "a hours, one
minute and SO seconds. Newton
beat the Seattle negro into Bagdad
by more than three miles.
Andrew Payne of Claremore,
OKLA, trotted in some II minutes
later, accompanied by Johnny vi
ezra, Alameda, Calf, youth, and
newcomer among the front runners.
Both were clocked in Z hours, 30
minutes and 80 seconds for the
days stretch.
The hundred and more roadstersl
who swung into action last Sunday

AS they sank deeper into the des-
ert, always going down toward sea
level, the heat waves radiated from
the roadway. Huge clouds Of dust
flew up in the wake of passing au-
tomobiles, causing the athletes to
gasp as they ran.
In the dry heat, walkers came
into their own, three finishing
among the first 20 today. Guisto

KID LAVICNE, s.,
is COUNTED OUT
BY GRIM REAPER

DETROIT, March 9 P)-George
(Kid) Lavigne, SO, former lightweight
boxing champion, died at his home
here tonight, following a brief illness
Lavigne, known as the Saginaw
Kid ruled the lightweight ranks iii
the late ninetles, a period when the
division boasted what was probably
the greatest collection OF fighters it
has ever known He acquired the title
in 1895 by reason OF recognition as
the outstanding challenger Tor the
championship held by Jack McAuliTfe,
at the time the latter retired.
Lavigne and NfcAuliffe never met in
a regulation bout, and the title was
conferred on the former after a four
round exhibition bout between the
two in New York.
Lavigne held the championship
four years. He was defeated in a
20 round bout by Frank Erne, OF
Buffalo, in 1899 During his career
Lavigne defeated Joe Wolcott twice,
stopped Dick Birge, the English
middleweight champion; fought two
draws with the phantom-like young
Critic, and beat Jack Everhart.
Iavigne, who never scaled over lSO
, pounds during his career, fought
many of his greatest bouts against
heavier opponents such as Birge and
Wolcott, the latter a heavy welter-
weight.
The first Lavigne-W -Wolcott contest,
staged at Maspeth, l.. l., was one
of the most savage affairs in ring
history and marked turning point
in the careers of bctn men.
The lion hearted negro boxer, IN
his memoirs recently published, stated
he fought himself "out' in the
Lavigne bout and was never the same
afterwards.
Lavigne likewise declared recently
that the Wolcott fight for him was
the beginning of the end" OF his
pugilistic career.
Although he was reputed to have
earned a small fortune in the ring,
Lavigne was in moderate circum-
| stances at his death. For the last
several years he had been employed
as a night watchman at the Ford
Motor company plant here. He was
born in Saginaw, Mich, in December
1869.

WOULD
STAGE MANDELL,
FLOWERS MATCH

BOSTON, March 9 R-The pro-
moters' race for the services of Sam
my Mandell, lightweight boxing cham
pion, became three cornered today
when Eddie Mack, matchmaker of the
Argonne A. A. of Boston, announced
a new offer to the lightweight king
for an outdoor title match here next
spring, against Bruce Flowers, New
York negro.
Mack said he had offered Mandell
flat guarantee of $4,000 and the
privilege of a 40 per cent 'cut" in
the gate receipts to box Flowers at
Braves field here May 20. The only
tstring provides that both boxers train
in or near Boston, for two weeks pre-
ceding the match.
Mack said he was ready to pro-
duce Flowers as an opponent for
Mandell in the belief that Tex Rick
ard and Promoter Jim Mullen OF
Chicago will be unable to break the
present deadlock in their efforts to
match the titleholder with Jimmy
McLarnin, latest lightweight sensation.
Mullen holds Mandells signature
for a title bout in Chicago and Rick
ard has McLarnin signed in the hope
that he can induce Mandell to meet
the tWo-punch conqueror of Sid Ter
ris in New York. Mullen's latest
offer to McLarrin, record for a
challenger, is a flat $4,000 guarantee
for Chicago match on June 21.

Johnny Risko, rotund Cleveland rub
ber man, today went through their
final serious workouts for the second
Is round semi-final Of Tex Richards
current elimination tournament Mon
day night
Sharkey worked two rounds on Lou
Bogash, Bridgeport light heavyweight,
using a straight left Jab and short
right to the body He practiced
similarly on Italian Jack Herman and
ended the day with two rounds OF
bag punching and three of rope
skipping.
sharkey scaled 191 before the
workout.
Risko, always unimpressive in his
gymnasium workouts, pounded a box
ing dummy for two rounds and threw
his long left hook into jeff Baul-
knight and F'rankie Lennon, his
sparring partners, for six rounds. He
trotted five miles through Central
Park earlier in the day.
Both athletes will wind up their
work tomorrow with boxing sessions
scheduled to average six rounds
apiece. Sharkey hopes to enter the
Madison Square Garden ring weigh
ing about 189, the poundage OF his
best fights, while Risko will top the
beam near 1873.
