PRESIDENTS PARTY
ARRIVES AT LODGE
Both Executive and Mrs.
Coolidge Appear Relieved
After Long Journey.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG.
Stan Correspondent Of The Star.

SUPERIOR, Wis, June 15.-When
long special train which brought him
here from Washington today. he for
mally opened the Summer White House
in the great North woods country OF
wisconsin. 1t was not until more than
an hour and half later that he and
Mrs. Coolidge crossed the threshold OF
picturesque. one-story Cedar Lodge,
tucked far away from civilization on q
tiny little island in the River BruIe,
which Is TO be their home until Fall
Their first glimpse Of this remote and
lovely spot and the little lodge itself
seemed TO assure them that the selec-
ton was an admirable one and that
they could look forward to happiness
and comfort throughout their long stay.
Tney appeared glad that their long
journey from the Capital was at an
end and that they could relax.
Although both expressed themselves
as experiencing no III effects from the
80 hours OF travelling, there was a
noticeable paleness and WEAKNESS about
them. The spirits Of Mrs. Coolidge.
whose tndispoSition caused a two-dav
postponement in their leaving Wash
ington, were especially high.
Those about her are convinced that
ner improvement since leaving the
White House has been marked and
that within very short time she viii
again feel like her old self. The Presi-
dents bruised right foot has not fully
healed and he Is still walking with
slight limp. But for a small pain when
he puts his full weight on that mem
Der he is feeling splendidly, according
to his own words.
Remains on Train.
1t was thought best for Mrs. Coolidge
70 remain on the train and continue
the trip to Brule instead of getting off
az superior and riding with the Pr7si-
dent and others of their party and the
oncial reception committee. She came
70 the rear platform with the Presi-
cent as the train waited at Superior
and smiled and bowed and waved in
response to the greetings.

M'LARNLN GETS
BIG CHANCE IN

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-The light
weight crown, which rests with
such a iaunty angle upon the curls
of the swarthy little shcik of Rock
ford, Sammy Mandcll, is the aim
and object of two fistic pretcnders
who do battle tonight in the ring
at Madison Square Garden.
Jimmy McLarnin, sometimes call
ed the "Bclfast Spider" and even
more recently christcncd Baby
face" is making his New York de
but and his most recent attempt Of
recognition by taking on Sid Ter
ris, the galloping ghost of the
Ghetto.
Even the National Boxing Asso-
ciation will recognize the winner of
tonight 5 bout as the man Sammy
MandrI must meet in defense of
the l35 pound title.
The Ghetto has its shekels down
on Tcrris. Not even the prestige Of
Knockout victories achieved by Ne,
Larnin within the past year can
swerve the Eastside. AS a result
the New York Hebrew will reign
a favoritc over the westerncr at
odds of to ).
There is a we'll defined feeling in
bo%ing circles that either principal
in this bout would be more than a
match for the champion.
Mandcll has 50 assiduously avoid
ed a match with the best man iI
lis division that he has come to
lie regarded with suspicion in the
cast. It may be that Sammv IS un-
der rated, and that when the time
comes he viii justify himself as
lightweight champion.
McLarnin, who has been training
under the eye of Gus Wilson at
Qran2cburg, VIII lave a few pounds
advantage over Tcrris but il is
doubtful if this vii! react in jim
