Bruins Tree Sitting
 Ends When He's Shot

Chicago, July 21 UP - A big black bear started a tree-sitting contest all by himself yesterday and got himself shot dead.
 He weighed 800 pounds and no one seems to know where he came from. However, he was sitting in a tree in Melrose park.
 Police were called. When the big bear saw them, he numbered down. which was the signal for the law-unfamiliar with black bear maneuvers to spring in an opposite direction.
 One policeman. deciding it was better perhaps to die from bear bites than from heat prostration, turned and let the big brute have a few bullets. The bear paused and decided to get back in the tree.
 The policemen thereupon re- turned and dispatched him deh- nitely

SWEDISH KL0NDIKE
 IS REPORTED FOUND
 BY NEW DOODLEBUG

The existence of rich, complex ore deposits in the region of the Skellefte River, Sweden, has been known, or at least suspected, for hundreds of years. but not until 1924 were they located.
 In that year the Centralgruppens Aktiebolag demonstrated the value of recent Swedish invention for locating mineral deposits, with the aid of electrical indicators on the surface. by the discovery of a rich ore body in this region. This cor poration has claims on both east and west side of the railroad line and the state on the west side.
 After it's remarkable discovery in the Boliden field it was decided to form two separate eompanies-one to operate the claims lying east of the railway, including Boliden, and the other, those west of the line.
 The richest vein located in the region are those at Boliden, Mala- mas and Menstrask, the first named being the best and most accessible The ores contain gold, silver, cop per, arsenic and lesser amounts of zinc, lead, and copper pyrites. An annual ore production of 120,0O0 metric tons is planned by the two companies. and, it is believed, will be obtained beginning this year.
 The deposits cover ,500 square meters. A typical present specimen of the ore contains 30 per cent ar senic, F per cent copper. SO grams of gold, and 100 grams of silver per ton. The noteworthy percentage of gold found in the ore has given the mines the reputation of being the Swedish Klondike.

 Copper producers look forward to a prosperous year with no pros pect of a wage or price reduction. Right now the producers have 40,- 600 tons more copper sold ahead than is in existence"
 While the A. s. & R. Copper mines are mainly in South America it is understood to be identified with production in this country thru Utah Copper and Kennecott. It's lead production in this country is large.

DEATH STOPS COMEBACK
 OF BILLIARD VETERAN
Daughter Calling to Tell of Mothers Death Finds Father Heart
 Disease Victim

Chicago, April 2S UP)-Tho contemplated comeback of old George Butler Sutton, former bil- Hard champion, will not take place.
 Sutton, e, and in what he con- sidered his best condition in ten years, was found dead here, after a lingering illness which had kept him out of billiards.
 Apparently having beaten dia- betes, Sutton had been in training for weeks, intending 10 enter tour naments. But yesterday his daugh- ter called to tell him that his wife had died. The daughter found him dead, from heart disease.
 Always a picturesque figure, sut- ton won the 1S.1 balkline champion ship in 1907 from old Jake Schaefer and then took the 1S.2 title by beat ing George Slosson in 1908.
 For several years his entry in na- tional titles had been rejected be- cause he was "too old," but he al- ways held to the theory that he could come back.

ATHLETIC ARGOSY
 OFF FOR EUROPE
American Team Seeking More
 Titles in Golf and Tennis

New York. April oS LP)-The first American athletic argosy of the sea- son was on the high seas and headed for Europe today with high hopes of bringing back few more titles in golf and tennis.
 Sole representative Of tennis on the Berengaria which sailed last night was Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, American, French and British singles champion. On board also were six teen of the country's leading women golfers. headed by Glenna Collett, national champion.
 Mrs. Moody will defend her French title at Paris starting May 9 and then lead the United States Wightman Cup forces against the British at Wimbledon June 13 and 14 before beginning defense of her British title in the same stadium beginning June 2S.
 Miss Collett and her party of golf CTS have three main objectives. The first is the team match against picked British squad at Sunningdale May 1; second, the British women's championship at Formby May r. and third, the team match against France at Paris May 27.
 Although the two team matches will be of a more or less informal nature: steps were taken here to make official international women's golf competition an annual affair. Mrs. Stewart Hanley. manager of the invading Amerian team, announced that Miss Margaret Curtis of Boston, former national champion, has pre- sented a cup to be competed for an nually by English, French, Canadian and American teams.
 The second general exodus of American golting talent will occur on April 30 when Bobby Jones and his Walker Cup team leaves for Eng land. In addition to the team match es against England, Jones and his mates will compete in the British amateur and open championships and will be reinforced in the latter classic by many of the greatest American professionals. Jones will aim particularly for the amateur title, however. for it is the only leading golfng classic he never has won.

MAY BANISH JOCKEYS
Drastic Action is Threatened By H. linois License Committee at Meet ing Today.

Chicago, April 23 P-Threaten- ing wholesale banishment of unsat- isfactory jockeys, trainers and own CTS, the license committee of the Illinois Turf association assembled for its annual spring meeting to- day.
 So many complaints have been received, it was said by commit tee member, that more than a score of riders, trainers and owners had but scant chances of gaining li- censes. In addition, it was said on good authority that all rulings made last week by the Kentucky Jockey club Twill be upheld by the Illinois committee.
 The Kentucky Jockey club refus- ed licenses to eight jockeys as well as some trainers and owners.
 One of the most interesting cases facing the Illinois committee was that of Jockey c. E. Allen, who was suspended for a year at Agua Ca liente on charge of attempting to pocket Victorian in the big Agua Caliente handicap. Allen was gen. erally unpopular with crowds at Chicago races last summer and is certain to come under discussion to- day.

ORIOLES WILL BE TITLE C0NTENDERS'
Baltimore Team Showing the Way in International League

By the Associated Press.
 If their work in the first few
 games of the season is to be taken
 as an example of what they are go-
 ing to do all year, the Baltimore Orioles will be formidable contend CTS for the International league championship.
 Beating the Montreal Royals, 6-5, at Baltimore yesterday, the Orioles chalked up their fifth successive vic tory without a defeat. So far this season they've scored 39 runs and collected 56 hits, nine of them home runs.
 Some great relief pitching by Leo | Mangum enabled Buffalo to make it three in row from Jersey City, 7 to s. Trailing by one run, the Blackcats filled the bases off slicker out. Bill Clymder, manager of the Bisons, motioned Parks off the hill and sent in Mangum to shoulder the burden. Leo then proceeded to re- tire the side without permitting a score. Jersey City got 13 hits all told to 10 for Buffalo but missed many scoring opportunities. The Rochester Redwings pounded three Reading pitchers for 15 hits and their third straight victory, 13 to z. The game was fairly close through the first six innings, Ro- chester leading at that time, 6-5. Wally Levenz was weakening, how ever, and Roberts was sent in 10 pitch for Reading in the seventh. The Redwings promptly chased him to the showers with a seven run rally that decided the game beyond a doubt. Paul Derringer, Rochester pitcher, was touched for 12 hits be- fore he gave way to Smith in the eighth. The latter gave up only one more safety.
 Sam Gibson, Toronto right handler kept Newark's eight hits well scat tered to shut out the Bears, 50. Toronto put the game on the well- known ice in the fourth when the Leafs drove Marvin off the mound in the midst of a four run rally A triple by Joe Rabbit and a homer , by Gibson were the liz smashes of the rally.

TO HUNT BIG GAME
Jack Dempsey, Former Heavyweight Champion of the World, to Aim at Lions and Tigers.

Chicago, April 2S.-tP,-Jack Dempsey is going to Africa to hunt big game.
 Apparently postponing whatever plans he had of a ring comeback at tempt, the "Manassa Mauler' has accepted the invitation of George F.. Getz, Chicago millionaire sportsman and big game hunter. to try his aim at lions and tigers in the African wllds next winter.
 Dempsey plans 10 take boxing gloves and other ring accoutrenhents along, however, for conditional workouts and 10 teach the savag ges the manly art of defense.
 Maybe I'll find a new heavy weight champion on one of our safaris,' Dempsey bantered. Who can tell? Anyway, I hope I don't miss my aim at any lions, it's tougher to aim and miss at lion than it is to miss fire at some heavyweights, you know"
 Many of the former champions friends believe his trip to Africa will definitely close his ring career if it hasn't already been closed.
