SHELBY FIGHT IN FINANCIAL FIZZLE| (Continued from Preceding Page) Démp-ey‘l sparring partners, was can- celled at the last minute when funds expected to be supplied by the pro- motérs were not available, The fight crowd was subjected to a yrolonted wait before the title bout ' when Michael Collins, matchmaker, réfused to permit the fight to proceed until the money to pay for tlie prelim- inaries and Referee James Dougherty was forthcoming. Collins, Kearns and Major J. E. Lane, trustee' of the pro. moters engaged in a heated argu- ment at the ticket office, but a per- #sonal check for $1,000 signed by Mayor James Johnson, treasurer of the fight eventually was produced and thé balance of the money was with- drawn from the fight account. Gibbons Treated Royally Tom Gibbons, defeated but winner of a moral victory, nevertheless, in the byes of Shelby which celebrated hilariously last night, will return to St. Paul, his home, with his wife and three small children tonight or, early tomorrow. He was given a mighty ovation by thé townspeople with whom he’ Nas become. immensely popular during his training here, After the fight Gibbons' wife await- ed his coming and greeted him with a kiss when he reached home. Last night he celebrated Independence Day by shooting off firecrackers for the edification of his boys and greeting scorés of friends. Offers No Alibis Gibbons offered no alibis for the de- teat but declared he desired a return match with the champion; that he had tired under the strain imposed by the wrestling in fighting during the bout and that he was unable to rally whén he sought to put over the knockout punch he desired. He was xrmrksd. except for a large, blue wel;on one thigh which he said was caused by a low blow which inflicted severe pain, Fans who have beén bewailing the fact that the challenger probably would receive nothing for fighting the champion were heartened today by the belief that motion picture rights in the fight 25 per cent of which are ownéd by Gibbons will net the pro- moters a considerable sum. Terms of the contract that Gibbons was to recelve 50 per cént of the receipts above the champion’s guarantee of $310,000, In- asmuch as the gate receipts were only slightly more than $200,000 he re- oeived nothing from the promoters. Gibbons' trip to Montana was not entirely barrén of profit, however. He yécelved $5,000 from Shelby for train- ing éxpenses; from $100 to $400 a day during nearly three weéeks of training in admissions at his training camp and a tour of the state immediately preceding the bout netted him $5,000. Gibbons has no regréts over the fi- panclal end of the bout. He has met thé champion, the goal toward which fe has struggled for the last three years; retained his record of never having been knockeéd off his feet and with the knowledge he has gainéd of Dempsey's style, he is confident the outéome of a return match would be differént from that of yesterday.

Anyway, the crowd that jammed Church street listened with interest and Gibbons seemed the popular f orite. It was about as big a crowd as ever collected to hear the returns from any sports event. It was necessary for the police to temporarily close the street to all vehicular traffic. The result of the’ championship bout simply f{llustrates the old saying that a good small man cannot beat a good big man, Rain played havoe with the Sage park races yesterday and all numbers were called off. With only three days lett to run off the 12 scheduled races, it will be necessary to run off four events each afternoon. Either Johnston or Hunter, both Americans, will be the next world's grass tennis court champion. Hoover, the American sculler, lost in the first heat of the world cham- pionship contests yesterday when his oar caught on a log marking the course and was broken. Bentley and Nehf twirled the Glants to a double victory over the Pihls yesterday. O'Connell socked out & homer in the first and Snyder and Jackson in the second. Dazzy Vance checked the Boston Braves in the first game yesteérday, the Robins winning 4-1. They also took the second 9-5. Fournier hit a freak homer, the ball bouncing off the flag pole. Carpentier is matched to fight Siki in Paris on Sept. 16. Herman when Kid Kaplan and Babe each pr~icd poor Yorecasters they caid the bout in New Haven Tuesday would not be a draw. It was —and the third between these two. Miss Ederle set a new vecord yesterday when she 200 yard free style event in swimming did the 2:49. The double vietory of the Yanks yesterday was their eighth straight win. Scott got Two homers. Old Walter Johnson was driven to the showers by the ferocity of the Yan- kees' batting. Corbin’s team did not play yester- day, although Manager Tobin had his team ready. On Saturday the boys play the Sub Base nine at New Lon- don and Sunday go to Stafford Springs for a return game.

It stops the burhp- ing, jarring and jolting over the holes and ruts in the road. It saves the car and provides greater riding comfort.

Still guaranteed for 10,- 000 miles, still priced remarkably low. Equip your car with a set of these tires and for the first time enjoy the comfort and economy which only Dayton Thorobred Cords give.

The Corporation’s resources, consisting of $85,000,000 of actual net assets, including $45,000,- 000 of plants, make it possible for Studebaker to offer a six-cylinder car, at less than $1,000, that is emphatically superior in design, construction, per- formance, comfost and dependability, to any car within hundreds of dollars of its price. By complete manufacture, Studebaker not only guards the quality of each part, but saves the mid- dlemen’s profits, with the result that no other make of car ever built, by anyone, at any price, represents so great a dollar-for-dollar value as the Light-Six. Evidence of its mechaniqal superiority is found in its practical freedom from vibration. Thisis accom- plished by the perfect balance of the motor. Perfect balance is obtained largely through the complete machining of all surfaces of the crankshaft and connecting rods. This requires 61 precision oper- ations. ‘This method is followed exclusively by Studebaker on cars at this price. In fact, very few other cars have this feature, and their prices are from three to ten times as great as that of the Light-Six. It is significant, therefore, that the sale of more than 80,000 Studebaker cars during the first six months of this year broke all records. Buyers are justified in expecting more for their money in a Studebaker than in any other car. 3 PgwertoSafisfyflwMostExacdnngnerr MODELS AND PRICES—{. o. b. facto: LIGHT S| BIG-SIX 7-?-...1:0".
