KNOCKOUT OF
COLORED BOXER
PROVES FATAL,

PRESCOTT, Ariz., March r. UR)
john Henry Lewis, a Negro fight
er of Phoenix, was held under tech
nical arrest here today while au-
thorities investigated the death Of
Sam Terrin, Prescott fighter, who
was killed in the third round OF
scheduled 10-round bout here last
night
No charge has been placed against
Lewis and none will be until CO.
roner's jury completes an inquest
into the death of Terrin
Lewis was fighting under the name
of John Henry, an abbreyiation of
his own name which he frequently
used for ring purposes. He had won
the first and second rounds without
effort. In the third Terrin rushed
him in a futile effort to score a
knockout.
Measuring his opponent carefully,
the Negro middleweight shot a quick
left to the heart and followed up
with hard right to the jaw Terrin
dropped writhing to the floor and
was counted out by George Baker
of Prescott, the referee. He died
few minutes later. A pulmotor was
obtained from the local fire station
and used for 40 minutes in a vain
effort to revive the fighter.
Mrs. Terrin occupied a ringslde
seat and was on her feet cheering
Tor her husband when he started
the disastrous third round rush. she
became hysterical and was taken
home by friends when DR.. J. P. Nc
Nally of Prescott pronounced Terrln
dead at 1915 p. m.
Lewis, the son of j. H Lewis, a
Phoenix conditioner OF fighters, Is
considered one of the best middle
weights in the state.

ly as true today as ever
Who ever would have thought VIC

exactly what Or. Harold ]. Knapp
Health Commissioner Of Cleveland, Is
doing; because he finds In that city
considerable decline In disease witt,
the general health Of the people there
greatly improved. His theory Is tina,
people eat less in times like these
that their diet contains fewer Injuries
and that health is improved by plair
food.
Carefully planned meals cost less
money. The less one spends for food
the more important milk becomes
Milk is all food, no waste. The least
amounts Of food which can be used
with safety are-every meal, milk
for the children. bread and butter fol-
all; Every day: cereal, potatoes, green
or yellow vegetables, fruit tomatoes
or oranges for children; Two to four
times a week: Tomates for all, dried
beans, peas or peanuts, eges-especial-
" for children-lean meat, fish, poul-
try cheese. Amounts to suit the size
Of family.
Simple, plain foods these-but they
offer protection and bring health at a
cost in keeping with the decreased
food allowance.

Courage is the main tool In life;
Courage Is the one that wilma the

Courage is the one that wins the race
I would not have you think
Other tools you could discard
But courage Is the one that hits them
hard.
One more tool bring To your mind
It's love so pure from Heaven Divine.
These two tools must be hand
In the cultivation OF your land.
But Courage, my friend, 1t strikes a
blow
And makes the burrows turn Just so.
Then Love 1t follows close behind
And prepares the soil for the seed bed
fine;
And tool we call Faith, It's right In
your hand
And brings forth the seed from this
prepared land.
What combination--Love, Courage
and Faithl
With these tools together you can play
life safe.

But what could you do without cour-

Onward and upward in this world of

You have used these tools all your

Swap them off you could not do
For God Almighty gave them to you
No one can mortgage; no one say,
Il take them away from you this day."
