round bout with Mike Belloise. for the
headliner Of an all-feather card.
Belloise, currently enjoying what
ever respect comes with being ranked
NTH in the featherweight division by
the National Boxing Association, Is a
27-year-old scrapper. formerly recos-
nized by the New York State Boxing
Commission as world champion.
The acrobatic Archibald, undefeated
in 10 engagements here, vaulted to
popularity through spanking Ray In
gram when that was considered q feat
and exploding leather in the face of
Lou Gevins0n, finally depositing him
on the canvas. Most of the remainder
of his victims here were feeble speci-
mems imported for the express purpose
Of retaining that popularity, but Bel
loise is unique in that respect.
BelIoise Rarely Beaten.
Belloise, who holds the dubious dis
tinction Of having been knocked out
by Henry Armstrong after travelling
the distance with him In their first
argument. has crushed some of the
choicest fruit in fistiana, losing only
three decisions since 1896.
Archy, ranked tenth by the N. B. A..
Is anxious to improve that standing in
what Promoter Turner says will be the
first Of series Of featherweight elm

successor to Armstrong who no longer
can scale the l26-pound limit.
joey owes his ranking to his rise
here. for he came to Ahearn as a pre-
liminary boy and reaped only $50 for
his f1rst match under him. His rather
clownish style and winning manner
captured large following and he has
appeared in local rings frequently.

This means only that dog owners must
realize that their dogs and their chill
dren are both safer in their own yards.
An added dividend is the knowledge
that when your dog Is confined to his
own grounds you have eliminated much
Of the possibility of trouble with your
neighbors on the score of damage to
his lawn and grounds.
He also is less likely to pick up con-
tagious canine diseases.
Pure BREEDS in Sad Plight.
In any assembly Of dogs held at an
animal refuge the chances Of finding
a pure bred are very slight. And
when the pure-bred dog does happen
to find himself in such company he
generally looks doubly pathetic. How
amazing it was. then. to look through
the runs Of the Animal Rescue League
and see four dogs Of undoubtedly good
breeding!
The first was a pure white bull ter
rier Of the kind immortalized by Rich
ard Harding Davis as a white cavalier.
Her small, pink-rimmed eyes had lost
all pugnacity, but not their eagerness,
as they looked at the people who came
in search of lost dogs.
English setter did not seem quite so
depressed by her plebeian surround ;
ings. She had welcoming bark for
every one who might possibly be coming
to release her. Her tail, almost en-
tirely denuded Of the long feathers
common to her breed, might have been
the clue as to how she found herself
in her present plight.
Undoubtedly some Of those
fine, silky hairs were lost in the
brush IS she followed her in
stincts to 60 hunting. whether
her master would let her Or no."
The other two were German shep-
herds. One appeared to b q young
dog, thin. but hard looking. His gen.
eral conformation and air Of breeding
seemed to Indicate an ancestry Of show
blood. The other seemed to be an
older dog, not quite so well modelled
originally, and fat with good living.
A broken harness was the clue to her
predicament.
Although these were all females and
therefore not available for adoption
according to the rules Of the Animal
Rescue League. their undeniable quail
tiles entitle them to q longer stay at
league quarters than is generally ac-
corded the stray bitch. in the hopes
that their bona fide owners will re-
trieve them.
Show at ShytSp.
The next show of interest TO local
exhibitors Is the annual fixture Of the
Lackawanna Kennel Club at skytop
Lodge, Skytop. Pa. This is in the heart
Of the Poconos, and although 1t Is not
one of the largest dog shows In the

BY FRANCIS J. POWERS,
Special Correapondent Of The Star.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, July s.-Ob-
servstions of an American League
partisan, who remained in Cincinnati
to pick up the pieces of the all-star
game in an effort to make excuses
for the American Leagues defeat.
Frankly. and with no apologies to
Joe Mccarthy, it appears that the
astute manager of the World Cham
pion New York Yankees made several
tactical mistakes. There can be no
excuse for shifting Jimmy Foxx from
first to third base, just to get Lou
Gehrig into the lineup Foxx prob
ably has not practiced at third base
since he left the Athletics. Certainly
he showed his lack Of familiarity with
that position in the seventh inning
when he threw Leo Durocher's
grounder into the far precincts of
West Virginia.
1t would have been far better had
Mccarthy sent his own Red Rolfe to
the far turn. Rolfe not only Is a
great fielding third sacker. but a
handy gent with the bat when the
chips are down. The chips were down
In this instance, and the American
League had no one to call.
Judgment Poor in Pinches.
Your correspondent also will take
all and any blame for complaining
about McCarthy's choice of pinch-hit-
ters. The entire American League
knows Bob johnson of the Athletics is
not clinch hitter. And Mccarthy
was warned Of that in advance. The
same thing may be said Of Rudy York,
the Tiger slugger. who is not a one
time hitter. but plenty courageous at
any time.
York came up in the seventh with
the bases clogged and famed under
the smart pitching Of Mace Brown
You could go on and find much more
| fault with the way the American
League side was handled. but we'll
turn a page and pay tribute to the
National Leaguers
In the first place. Bill Terry took a
long gamble on young Johnny Wander
Nicer, who did not look so potent
against the Cubs last Sunday. Two
no-hitters' Johnny was at his best,
and showed not only exceptional stuff
but Also lot of intestinal fortitude
I was not SO impressed with Vandy
against the Cubs. but he can have my
vote from now on. He has plenty OF
what it takes.

covered. through the medium OF polling
its entire membership, that youngsters
considered boxing an ordeal instead
OF sport. Boxing headed the list
in being the most disliked sport on the
program.
This hardly Is . reflection on
boxing instructors there or an
indication that American youth
is softening.
1t means. simply. that boys haven't
found premediated punching of their
chums pleasurable. nor have they
found any thrill in absorbing . solid
sock. There is no fun in being hurt.
The lack Of delirious delight in
youngsters for boxing partly Is attrib-
utable to publicity connected with the
sport, according to Charles M. Fyfe,
managing director OF the club, who
has been affiliated with boys long
enough to know. That publicity ap-
plies pressure to the kids and the re-
suits have been found harmful.
Entire Set-Up Found Wrong.
"The entire set-up is wrong" in
forms Fyfe. There should be no situ-
alton where a crowd boos or laughs at
youngsters efforts. Yet that has
happened and I've seen the result too
often. The kids break down and cry
and. naturally, that's all wrong.
Parents have told me their boys
get so worked up over a fight they don t
sleep or eat properly for some nights
before a scheduled bout. These emo
tional upsets and physical setbacks.
caused by the required strict training
are hackfiring on our purpose. We are
in the business Of looking after and
taking care of the boys welfare in
general"
In abandoning open compete
tion for boys under Is years old
the Boys Club Of Washington
thus becomes the first to admit
Its mistake, for that club intro
duced Junior boxing in the Dis
trict.
Now 1t is willing to admit publicly
that the sport is not feasible for young
sters. 1t will continue to teach the
rudiments Of boxing, but will confine
competition to its own members.
The idea to divorce itself from open
competition was the result Of intensive
study. Nor is the movement strictly
local, for the Boys Clubs of America
probably will adopt the same policy at
their next convention. They have
found boxing does not provide fuel for
growing youngsters and the boys have
discovered they don't relish being hit.
Professional boxing hardly will suf-
fer from the move Amateur boxing in
recent years has fed such ring notables
as Joe Louis and Barney Ross to pro-
fessionalism, but it isn't necessary to
have baby start swinging in the
cradle to develop him into a fighter
1t probably Is more sane to have some
semblance Of maturity before searching
for people to slap you around.
Further, by eliminating that COM
petition, the Boys Club of Washington
has made its youngsters eligible for
any athletic scholarships which would
come their way. Newly adopted col
legiate ring rules forbid those who
have swung in open amateur events to
be bopped for universities.

Many dogs are subject to f1y-bitten

settle on the ears of one dog and bite
them until they are pulpy. gummy
looking messes and not bother the ears
Of the dog in an adjoining yard is one
Of the mysteries of nature. Many
remedies and preventatives have been
tried, with varying success. One of
the better methods consists of rubbing
a little castor oil on the tips of the
ears. While this is not pretty. it Is
absolutely harmless to hair and skin,
is free from odor, and has been known
to work.
1t also is healing to ears already fly
bitten.
Rabies Menace in Strays.
The rabies scare in Northeast Wash
ington and nearby Maryland has had
its tosbe-expected result in the clean
ing up Of strays and homeless dogs.
More than 700 dogs were turned over
to the Animal Rescue League alone
during the month of June. These
were mainly strays and waits, which
were humanely destroyed.
As there are several humane agen-
cies in the District. all of which have
felt the results of the rabies educa-
tion campaign, it can readily be seen
that it will not be long before this
community is comparatively free from
homeless dogs.
And 1t is the homeless dog
that Is the big menace in the
spread Of rabies.
The first step in eliminating this
menace Is being taken with the elimi-
nation of the stray dog. The second
step. and one Of almost equal impor-
tance. is the voluntary quarantine Of
all dogs.
