On Thursday night, in Madison Bquare Garden, New York, Delaney will face Tom Heeney, burly black- smith of New Zealand, in the first of Tex Rickard's heavyweight elimina- tion semi-finals. Heeney will weigh close to 200 pounds. Yesterday when Delaney hopped on the scales for a deputy of the New York state athletic commission, the bar jiggled to 175% and stopped. But the bronzed French-Canadian refuses to worry about the weight. “Condition is thc only thing that I have on my mind,” he said, as he stretched on the rubbing table, the billowy muscles of his shoulders and back limp and lithe under the min- istrations of his trainer. “I have 175 pounds now. That will be 178 or 180 by ring time. And when T land flush on Heeney's chin a few pounds more or less aren’t go- ing to matter. “Heeney has never heen knocked down hard and hurt Do you re- member the right hand punch I hit Suily Montgomery-—th: one that knocked him dead for five full min- utes? There was only 178 pounds behind that one but I wish Gene Tunney's chin had been in front of i I'd be the heavyweight champ- ton of the world right now.” There was a flash in Delaney’s eyes as he said that, a cockyness cbout him that instilled- confidence. He hasn't been working too well in the stuffy little gymnasium that has Ywen the fistic center of Bridgeport ver since he climbed the top of the light heavyweight heap. But that's o good omen. The natives point «cut, for Delaney never looked better in training than before he lost to Maloney or worsc than before the STOP BAD BREATH People afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr. Ed- wards’ Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know them. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets act gently but firmly on the bowels and liver, stimulating them to natural actlon, clearing the blood and gent- Iy purifying the entire system. They do that which dangerous calomel does without any of the bad after effects, ; Olive Tablets bring no griping, pain or any disagreeable effects. Dr. F. M. Edwards discovered the formula after 20 years of practice among patients afflicted with bowel and liver complaint, with the attend- ant bad breath. Olive Tablets are purely a vege- table compound mixed with olive oil; you will know them by their olive color. Take nightly for a week and note the effect. 15c, 30c, 60c.

And Bridgeport is ready to bet the city hall that Jack Delaney hits Tom Heeney “right.” $650,000 WILL NOT CHANGE LIVING MODE Chauffeur Plans to Continue Life in Same Manner as Before He Got Legacy. Pottsville, Pa., Feb. 28 (®—Sole legatee and executor of an estate valued at $650,000, James F. Cur- rens, 40 year old chauffeur, sees no reason why he should change his place of residence or mode of liv- ing. Currens inherited the fortune from Miss Ermina C. Elssler, 55, his for- mer employer, whose will was pro- bated here yesterday. Miss Elssler died last week. She had no close relatives, and it Is believed the| testament will be uncontested. Her fortune grew from a $60 in- vestment by her mother 40 years ago in Florida real estate. The tract of 40 acres, near Miami, and now known as Princess Park,.was purchased from the government by Mrs. Elssler. For years it was con- sidered almost valueless and fre- quantly was offered for sale at « small figure, Then came the spectacular rise in Florida real estate. In 1920, sev- eral years after Mrs. Elssler's death, the tract was subdivided, de- veloped end sold as building lots. Miss Elssler's brother, John, who inherited the property from her, died suddenly before he realized the fruits of the sale. His share of the estate went to his wife, a former employe in a Philadelphia restau- rant. Miss Elasler, at the time, was a stenographer here. She resigned at once and employed Currens, whom she had known since hcildhood, as her chauffeur and general servam. “There 15 no need for me to change my place of address or mode of living because of this legacy,” Curren said today. “I will, therefore, continue as at present.” FLOODED OUT OF WATER Port Arthur, Tex., Feb. 28.—This city was without water recently be- cause of a five-inch rainfall. ‘The flood had inundated the filtration plant leaving motors and other equipment in five feet of water. New York, Feb. 28 UP—Inefficien- cy of the police and the courts is |blamed for this country’ ‘notorious crime record.” The blame is placed !in a report from a subcommittee to the national crime commission, (which recommends as one solution |that police departments be taken out of politics. The report summarizes a survey made by the committee, of which Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois is chairman and was wrjt- Swarthmore, Pa., noted eriminolo- gist, and executive secretary of the committee. | Characterizing crime as appearing to be “the safest business in which one could engage,” the report says that in Buffalo, N. Y., but three per cent of arrests are made proportion- |ed to the robberies which have oc- curred, the lowest record of the nine cities from which statistics were ob-. tained. 'This is compared to 80 per cent in England. Schenectady, N. Y., |the report said. was mot much bet- {ter, with a percentage of 10 and St. Louis 11 per cent. Is Lucrative “Robbery in Buffalo must be a particularly lucrative calling,” Dr. Robinson sald. The number who are finally convicted is necessarily {so small that the luckless individual {who is occasionally caught and con- victed must attribute his misfortune to an act of God, as he would in case of disastrous storm, shipwreck or |earthquake.” In cases of manslaughter and murder only one of the nine cities showed a better record of arrests than England where the precentage is 82. Cleveland has a score of 83 per cent, the report says, but con- trasted to that are 8t. Louis where the percentage is only 16, Kansas City 36 per cent and_ Baltimore 68 per cent. The policing of small towns and rural areas, made accessible to city criminals by the automobile and good roads, is severely condemned |by the report. The rural police organization is “but a decayed and ten by Dr. Louis N. Robinson of: report in suggesting a remedy for the problem of properly policing the icities, Declaring that “the char- acter and tone of our police* forces { but mirror the character and tone of city administration in general.” Statistics are quoted from army |intelligence tests given the Cleve- land police force to sustain the com- mittee's contention that the trouble is in the lack of average intelligence in the police force. The average in- telligence of the Cleveland police was lower than that of privates in the army, it was shown, 58 per cent | being below Class C ‘“ranging from |those not capable of completing a high school course to the worst of the moron class.” Summarizing, the report makes these recommendations: Take the police force out of poli- tics. Reform the bond system and methods of legal procedure 80 as to do away with the justices of the peace, as Detrojt has done; decrease | trials by jury In minor off(nses; give imore power to the judges; require prosecuting attorneys to make a yearly report of their activities and it reasons for their actions. | Extend the state constabulary sys- !tem for the protection of rural communities. Eatablish permanent crime com- {missions, such as that which has |bebn operating in Baltimore, to | make a constant study of the chang- ing problems of crime and its pre- vention. COMES BACK FOR MEAL | Los Angeles, Feb. 28.—Sentenced /to 50 days in jall for vagrancy, Arthur Nichols became a trusty and walked out one morning before breakfast. Police brought him baca to the judge who wanted to know why the prisoner had broken his trust. “My mental state must have { been terrible or 1 would never have | gone without my breakfast,” replied | Arthur. “Add 60 free breakfasts to | the original 50,” was the comeback ifrom the bench.
