Reyes has whipped some great men. His record shows a victory of the great Genaro Pino, fly- weight champion of Cuba. Reyes whipped Pino to a “fare thee.” Pino is the boy whom the present champ, Fidel La-Bara refused $25, 000. to meet. of age and has been fighting three years.’ He “has had 45 fights, winning most of them by knock- outs. the rest by decisions. Baby Reyes has never been knocked off his feet. Eastern Promoters Startled to Chicago. Anyone down on the Southern Coast wil] tell you of Baby Reyes’ prowess in the ring.

MAKE PLANS FOR BUILDING STATE ROADS BIDS FOR VARIOUS PROJECTS TO BE RECEIVED; MANY CONTRACTS TO BE LET FOR WORK (By Associated Pressey TALLAHASSEE, Fia., July 31. —Close upon the heels of the largest single letting of contracts for road construction in the his- tory of the State Road Depart- ment, comes an announcement from Dr. F. A. Hathaway, chair- man of the department, that bids for still more work will be re- ceived and opened by the depart- ment on August third, tenth, and twenty-fourth, the necessary ad- vertisements having been inserted. The rapidity with which the bids are being invited and contracts let, tends to bear out the predic- tion of the chairman that the de- partment’s operations wil] involve a program of eighteen millions of dollars by the close of the present year. Projects which are being adver- tiser for bids are: For August 3—Project 669-V. Road No. 27 (popularly known as Tamiami Trail) Collier county, length 11.91 miles, clearing, grub- bing and grading; project No. 592, road 10, Franklin county, from the Gulf County line to Apalachicola, approximately 7.89 miles in length, clearing, grubbing and grading. For August 10—Project No. 565, road 1, Madison county from the Suwanee river to Madison, ap- proximately 15.99 miles in length to be paved. Alternate bids will be received on concrete, sheet as- phalt, bituminous concrete and bi- tuminous macadam. Project 669- X, road No. 27 (Tamiami trail), Collier county, 9.39 miles in length, clearing, grubbing and grading to consist of forming a roadbed embankment of material obtainel from’ canal on north side s}of road bed. For August 24—Project No. 673-B, Gadsden county, road 1, bridge across Little river, 80 foot low steel truss span on concrete piers with concrete pile trestle ap- ‘DOT, I CAN HARDLY REALIZE THAT You WILL SOON CE MARRIED 2 ( LAM HAPPY = BOT AT THE ME SAME Te A MOTHER HATES Te GIVE DP HER CHILDREN It'S GOWG “TOBE MIGHTY ‘WITH ONE LESS AROUND THE HOLSE SSS M, “While the letting of contracts is proceeding with unusual speed, there has been no let up in the care which the department always exercises in letting a contract for road construction. Efficiency is not being sacrificed to speed; the same scrutiny with which the de- partment observes all bids is be- ing exercised, but the organization having been tightened up, is able to proceed more expeditiously. I am more than ever confident that the close of the year will find us with operations in progress aggre- gating eighteen millions of dol- lars.” More than 1,000,000 finger- prints, or nearly one per cent of proaches, 386 feet in length.
