TUNNEY GIVEN
EUROPE HONOR
AS GENTLEMAN
Said to Have Won Greatest
Knockout by Conduct at
English Noble Banquet

London, Aug. 30.-(AP)-Laudina
Gene Tunney's bearing at last
nights dinner party given in his
honor by Harry Preston, noted Brit
ish sportsman, the Express refers
to the ex-champion as "the embodi-
nent of herman decency."
Tunney scored one of the great
est knockouts in his life, the paper
says, by gracefully hobnobbing with
the literary celebrities and other
notables attending the party.
Ia p toast to the guest Of honor,
Lord Decies called Gene q sgreat
gentleman" and hoped he would have
much success in "his chosen field Of
literature"
The young Marquis of Clydesdale
followed with brief speech and the
ex-champion replied with graceful
phrases of appreciation.
II don't know why you make this
fuss over me-" Gene said. "What is
boxing? The ability to coordinate
mind and muscle at Z critical mo-
ment, that is all.
"Yet you receive. me with all this
acclaim. If had been q great
painter l would have been met by .
couple Of long -haired men and short
haired women; had | been = famous
literateur my welcome would have
been lost to posterity."
He denounced the killer" type rs
menace to boxing, declaring the
only JOY to be obtained in 4 fight is
by facing q man Of physical and in
tellectual equality.
Noting that Tunney's dinner
jacket failed to hide his shoulder
muscles, the Express writer's first
impression from the Americans ap-
pearance was, as he puts it in to-
days edition: s'Here was . mountain
guide who ought to be something
better, man you would trust your
sons to on q campaign holiday, 4
man you would trust your daughter
to anywhere
Genes speech is described as .
triumph of sincerity that carried all
before it.
Tunney expected today to be the
quietest for him since his arrival in
Europe. This morning he started
motoring trip through the Surrey
hills.
He hoped to be. able to see the
house where the late American
novelist Henry James lived at Rye
on the Sussex coast but was un-
certain whether his time would per-
NIT since he intended to jog leisure
~ about.
None Of lis friends accompanied
the ex-champion and he intended to
return. to London this evening.

Tommy Grogan, Omaha Light

York Fight Center
By JAY K. VESSELS

New York, Aug. 3d. (AP) "A
couple of new arrivals in New York's
bullying ranks of box fighters has
helped to stimulate interest in the
fistic game hereabouts.
They are Roberto Roberti, 6-foot
4-inch heavyweight hope. and Tom
my Grogan, the dashing young
lightweight with a heavyweight wal
lop.
Roberti Won on foul from Johnny
Risko, the banging baker from
Cleveland. That victory meant no
more to boxing men than any other
victory from a foul blow, but Ro-
berti's improvement as d fighter did
mean something to them, and they
have been praising him ever since.
The Italian clouter did nothing
during that fight that bothered kisko
then, but he showed enough promise
to indicate he might prove hard for
Risko or any other fighter to beat
a few months hence.
Metropolitan fans remembered Ro-
berti as just another preliminary
fighter Of year ago. Now they

Shocking violations of state and federal pure

of which showed that one Spokane Creamery

The United States standard for butter under
the act of congress of May 8, 1902, required
S2.5 per cent b%utterfat II per cent maximum of
moisture and 3.5 per cent curd. This was later
modified to allow 16 per cent moisture and so

Mr.. Van Houten Tuesday. Moisture content
as high as u to 2S per cent is most unusual in
Spokane"
Women of slender means who have not yet
learned that the underpriced article is not often

The tests were made by the Spokane
Laboratories in the Eagle Building, under the

Moisture samples were tabled after two runs

pressure ranging from ST inches mercury.
