TUESDAY, JUNE 3, 1924. Casper Daily Cridun COLLECES WILL ADDITIONAL NEWS OF SPORTS ARP’S STATUS NOW DEBATED Promoters =, Wondeang What His Drawing Power Will Be. By FAIR PLAY. Copyright, 1924, The Casper Tribune NEW YORK, June 3.—Now the heads of the promoters are together for fair. They are wondering, of course, where Carpentier fits in. Has he any drawing powers left in New York and vicinity? Upon the answer to this question depends much. Talk has been heard since Saturday of this fight and that. But a deal of thinking has yet to be done. Sprained ankles in a ring fight don't get much credence from the fans, as a rule. Bill Brennan pull- ed it on Dempsey in their first fight. It worked to the extent of getting Bill a return bout in New York,. but otherwise it did not do so much for knocked-out Bill Bren- nan. Tommy Gibbons was obvious- ly easy on the Frenchman after the alleged accident happened. No keen observer seems to have any doubt that Tommy had his man in the ninth as‘a result of wearing body blows and could have finished him within the limit had he cared to do 80. Descéamps will affirm that had it not been for the ankle, Carp would have finished in good shape and will claim credit for the manner in which his man stood up to a knock- out hitter so soon after an ocean voyage. Very possibly many will agree with him. If the writer were a promoter he would take a gamble with consider- able pleasure’ on the appearance of Carpentier in New York~- against pay, Spalla. In fact, it would be sur- prising if such a battle is mot ar- ranged. As for a bout with Tuney, that would pay, too, and it looks as though it would be held. But the ballyhoo {s held in reserve. In the meantime, Carpentier Tew in bed in Michigan Clty, nursing an ankle “swollen four times its natural size:” It must. have Descamps something for bandages to make {t look that big. He will probably work his way east, picking up aH sorts of coin merely for exhibiting himself with his sparring partners. All In all, Carpentier hus a personality that is worth money in the ring or out of it. Tommy Gibbons says that if that one right which Carpentier slipped over on him had struck him on the chin, it might have caused him real trouble. As it. was, the ‘blow landed upon his cheek bone Boys never will understand why Babe Ruth (right) of home-run fame!

COMPARISON OF RECORDS IN TRACK MEETS IS IMPOSSIBLE By LAWRENCE PERRY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) NEW YORK, June 3.—It was rather unfortunate that the gale which prevailed in the Harvard sta- dium during the last day of the Intercollegiate meet. seemed to blow every way at once. No matter. in what direction events were started, times and events seemed to bo af- fected by the strenuous breezes. ‘This will make {t impossible to draw an accurate comparison as between the great eastern meet and the west- ern conference games this coming week-end. Otherwise the I. C. ALAA. A. meet of 1924 will go down in history as one of the most successful on record. And not the least pleasing feature was the cordial manner in which the captains and managers of all the competing temas accepted Yale's victory. It was a real cele- bration that all had at the Hotel Lenox in Boston after the. meet. Here are a few constructive im- pressions of the games: First of all, Hill of Penn, proved that light preparatory work is desir- able for a a sprinter. He was at the peak of his form on Saturday. The shot put was the finest. ex- hibition of weight throwing the world has ever seen. Although Hartranfft of Stanford, won, Hills of Princeton, was consistently plac- ing the shot at over 49 feet.. The Princetonian, was but half an inch belind Hartranfft's record put of 49 feet 5% inches. The discus throwin was remark- able and the record is questioned not’ because the wind was blowing with .the throw but because it is thought the opposing breeze tended to keep the missile longer in the air. Hartranfft, Hauser and Arthur, all threw the saucer more than 154 feet 6 inches. The pole vaulters were mostly bothered by the wind because the cross-bar and standards swayed badly in the gale. Owen, Sherrill, Libby, Scholp and Durfee many times were blown back as they went into the air, Wolf of Pennsylvania, ran two. more races than his opponents in tho hurdles, because before the finals, he had to qualify «in extra heats. It is Wolf’s' first year in hurdling and in another season he promises to be the peer of, Earl ‘Thomson. = The concrete-like surface of the hammer throw ring seemed to bother Gates and Taylor more than thelr, rivals and as a consequence, the two favorites for this event failed to place. Booth, in the two mile, Erick in the mile, Watters in the half and Helfrich in the half and quarter, proved their quality by making good time in spite of the high wind. Farmer Laborites Plan for Session ST. PAUL, Minn., June 3.—Plans were going ahead today for the na- tional convention of the Farmer- Labor progressive group under the leadership of Willfam McHeney, St. Paul, to be heid here June 17 to dis- cuss a third party movement for the general elections in November. The committee took no action to bar the communists from the third party gathering. _ Dry air that is free from ofl or water; is much better for your tubes. Plenty of it at Woods Filling Station. FOREGO LIQUOR FOR REUNIONS \ BY ROBERT T. SMALL (Copyright 1924 The Casper Tribune) NEW TORK, June 3.—Efforts to “dry up” commencement week at the Eastern universities and col- leges are meeting with success al- most daily now as June arrives and the chances are that less intoxicating liquors will be drunk at the gradu- ation exercises and the class re- unions than at any time since the Volstead act took effect. ‘The move to make the commence- ments dry fs a tacit confession that they have been anything but that in the past, despite the fact that the constitutional prohibition amend- ment came into full force more than four years ago. There has been a fairly well au- thenticated report in circulation for some time that at one prominent university commencement last year, the revenue agents made a descent and did not find things at all to their liking. ‘The agents threaten- ed to stop all reunions, arrest all the alumni and possibly put a pad- lock on all further proceedings. Affairs were smoothed out, how- ever, without drastic action, but there was a promise that this year every precaution would be taken to make the campus as dry as the mid-Sahara. Consequently there will be no cockta!ls or beer or punch or any other kicking substance served in the class tents or mar- quees which may be erected for the accommodation of the visiting “old srads.”" In the fight to make the Eastern commencements safe for prohibi- tion, many eyes naturally have been turned toward Columbia Unt- versity, here in New York City, be- cause Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, revered of the big educational inst!- tution, recently has been hitting some hammer blows at prohibition as it if practiced at the present time. Pr. Butler has frankly let it be known that he regards no prohibi- tion at all as better than the evil conditions which he says have grown out of attempts to enforce the Vol- stcad act as written at Washington. What Dr. Butler really has advo- cated {s a government monopoly or control of alcohol, as practiced in one or two provinces of Canada. Columbia, however, _has_promptly fallen in line with the dry move- ment, the commencement day com- mittee issuing an appeal to the “old grads" not to bring their-own or to permit any others to. supply them “on university property.” The committee has argued that it does not matter what the individual may think of prohibition, _ thei should be strict compliance with the law during commencement weelt and that each alumnus should per- sonally discourage anything like a breach of the laws on commence ment day. The committee is seek- ing “to protect the good name of Columbia.” It has been made known at Co- lumbla that the action of the com- mencement day committee, of course, has the sanction and sup- port of Dr. Butler. The students at the university, while supporting Dr. Butler in their college paper and class discussions, have resented the inferences of some of the more dras- tic of the dry advocates that Colum- bia has become as wet as tho At- lantic Ocean. They have insisted that perhaps there has been less drinking at Columbia, per student, than In any of the other large unt- versiites. Officers of some of the classes NEW TREATMENT FOR SWOLLEN GLANDS People who have enlarged glands ought to know that by freely apply- ing Emerald Oil daily the gland can be brought to a head and all the germs and polsonous secretions di charged and destroyed. Furthermore the opening will heal sutely and speédily and without leaving an unsightly scar. People who desire this treatment should se- cure a two-ounce original bottle of Emerald Oil (full strength) and use as directed. It is a very concen- trated preparation and small quantity lasts a long time. It is also used to reduce swollen veins and dissolves goitre. Smith & Turner Drug Co..

As for Carpentier he can not htm- self talk because of the sprained ankle probably; but Gus “Wilson, his itrainer, says. that Tommy cracked him with a left hook in the first that dazed Carp for the first six rounds, of the battle.
