Many amusing little stories are con- nnected with Wallace's career in the ring. In 1919 at El Paso, Tex., Wal- lace boxed the classy little Gene Del-| mont of Memphis and {t was a give | andtake affair for the full 12 rounds, neither lad gaining any decisive ad vatage. That evening in a down town cafe Delmont and Wallace met and exchanged compliment: “You are a great boxer but you cannot punch, Wallace to Delmont. Delmont replied with, “You cannot box, you are not a ring general, but, oh boy, how you can hit! Who the he— ever told you that you were Ucked if you ever stepped backs- wards?" On another occasion Wallace met Jack Britton who looked like a fair Vghtweight during 1921, and Britton attempted to stay away from Wal lace until the Milwaukee crack should tire enough’ to allow Britton to out box him. ‘The Beer City star !mmed! ately caught on to Britton’s game and | commenced to force mutters by bril ant infighting and. very agresst! tactics.

When Britton refused Wallace clipped him on the jaw, making the remark that although Britton had lost one fight on na foul he did not lose this one that way.

Charles ENUIN WOMEN SHIN | GONTEST FOR RIDERS | QVER §0 YEARS OLD, BERLIN, April 19—Women com- peted in almost all the events of the Berlin spring horse show except one. ‘That was the contest for riders over fifty years old mounted on thelr own hunters. Baronesses, countesses and untitled women without end drove and rode, even in the stiffest sort of hurdle races. But not a single woman ap- peared to acknowledge half a century of age. Prince Frederick Sigismund, son of Prince. Frederick Leopold, partici- pated in many of the events and won a number of ribbons. He is a skilled hurdler and has been a prominent figure in German horse shows for many years. During the war he was a captain in the Black Hussars, to which the Crown Prince belonged. Prince Frederick wore his regi mental un{form while riding in the show, and was one of many smart appearing officers who competed. His father is the irasctble cousin of the former Kaiser who lives on a great estate near Potsdam and is always involved in Utigation growing out of fights with tenants and neighbors and officials of the Prussian state. Count nd Countess Hohenau, Baron Langen, Major Burkner and Fraulein Kitty Mannheim were con- spicuous among the riders. Baron Lagen always was a favorite in the hurdle races. Any horse he rode wns heavily backed because of his un usual skill. Major Burkner stood out prom!- nently among the officers who com: peted in the various hunter classes exhibiting chiefly army horses. All the horses shown in the recent show, with few exceptions, have been trained since the armistice, as the French and Belgians were given near- ly all the thoroughbreds under the Versailles treaty. Fraulein Kitty Mannhetm was a fa- vorite in the hurdling contests and would be a great card even among the women roughriders at the Pendleton Roundup. She rode astride in the rougher hurdling events. This is something of an !nnovation for Ger- man women, who cling to the side- saddle for park riding and even for hunting. oo et, A la@y saved $12.50 on a one-piece porcelain lined refrigerator at Gra- ham-Shields Furniture Co.

Both men have been fighting consistently all winter with success and are primed for their | meeting here. They have never met before. Benny Silva of Colorado and Jim- mie Woodhall, the Thermopolis flash, will furnish the semi-final event in an elght round go at 118 pounds. The little fellows are fast and both carry considerable of a. punch. Woodhall has fought here several times this year and his work has been pleasing to the fight crowd. There will be three other matches, one of them a wrestling bout. Jack Shaeffer, local light heavy, will tangle with Spike Murphy of Denver for six rounds and Kid Louistana will meet Kid Mex over the four round route at catch weights. Bob Moon and Robelisk! the Pole, will'wrestle one fall to a finish. The seats are now on sale and re- ported to be going fast. A large crowd is expected as every man with the exception of one on the card has performed here before and all of them have considerable of a following.
