Joe (Wop) Flynn and
Young Billy Papkc
to Go This Evening
Vounp Billy Papkc, ami Joe (Wop)
lynn, who will box tonight at the
lliKi Garden arrived Wednesday and
liuve been working: out before the local
iitn. Both have shown class and
there is little doubt that this will be
iiie of the le.-t fights ever staged in
this section of the state. Opinion is
about evenly divided as to the out
come of the scrap, both men being
touuh battlers, t'lynn porluips has the
mo.-t imiMj-inij record, having battled
ii number oi mhmI nun and ranked as
one of the iiear-champioiis. I'apke is
More oi the "iio.i man' t.pe of fighter
Jiavin a sleep producing wallup and
a reputation as U-ing ruggcl and able
to ial;e it." riynn and I'apke once
btfoie lought a ten round draw, and
both nu.ii. tain that this time the re
sult wiil be (liltercnt, although dis
aieeing on the name of the w.nner.
' Kid l lorine, a local lightweight Will
&u i tounds with "Battling Jaeger
tif Omaha, a newcomer to the ring Uit
known as a comer. He lias been bat
tling around Omaha and has acquired
a good reputation. Florene is well
known to local fans as a clever boxer,
iind al.o one with enough punch to
make things interesting.
"Cowboy'' Wyland will tangle with
I.loyd Dotson in a four round pre
liminary. Both of these men have ap
peared before in an Alliance ling, VVy
Jand somewhat disastrously us the re
sult of overmatching. Both have boxed
in the army and have had some ring
experience. They are tniddleweights,
ur.A boh have a wallop. This should
1c a rattling good bout and should
please the fans.
The admission to the beat will be $1
for general admission, $l.aO for re-i-trved
seats, and $2.00 for r.ngsidc
sweats. Special seating arrangements
have been made, all of the ringside
s-cats being chairs, and better facilities
for handling the crowd have been ar
ranged tor than at the last bout. From
tiie caul and from all previous indi
cations this should draw u record
tiowd.
Baseball Meeting Held

this was not considered necessary.
(lames will be arranged by Manager
Kn.wler with towns near here, mil it
is oelievod that thi:; will be as ;t
as last ear's team, which was very
successful. The f: ns should surely
turn out to see this team in act 'on.
The date of the dame is set for
April -!. A big crowd should attend.
Whether you go or not buy a ticket
and help Alliance have a real ball
team.
RANDOM SHOTS
High School Track
Records Not Broken
t Iii Rece:it Years
Although the Nebraska state high
school records for high school track
events do not rank with the standings
in neighboring- states, there are some
records of considerable ability on the
li.-t. Jlo.-t of the championship tallies
have stood the storm of later compe
tition for a good many years, but this
fact docs not point to" a falling n.'F of
ability, but rather to stricter eligibility
lules, age limits, and more caieiul
timing and measuring by the officials.
The obie.-t record is the 2110-yard
lah time made by Burrus of Lincoln
in l'.HJl. His time was 0:22 2-.". The
newest record was established in the
itate meet last spring by Rhodes of
An.-ley when he made eleven l'cet
eiirht inches in the oe vault.
Omaha Central holds two of the
honors. Carl Lutes heaved the 12
pound shot forty-five feet seven and
one-half inches in UM.j, while in 1!U1
the Central relay squad set a pace of
1 2-j lor the relay.

Frank Dailey bioke the slate record
Wednesday evening in the 100-yard
d:ish when he stepped that distance in
10 seconds flat, 1-5 of a second faster
than the state record. This will, of
course, not be regarded as a record,
the mark being made in practice. This
is the first time that Dailey has beaten
Garvin, the school's other likely sprint
man, this year. Garvin has been
stepping this distance consistently in
30:2, nosing out Dailey by about a
foot.

Conveniences And
Refinements Added to
Ford Enclosed Cars
Many added conveniences and re
finements are to be seen in the Ford
enclosed cars now being displayed by
the local authorized Ford dealers.
The interior of both the coupe nnd
the sedan is now finished in an at
tractive shade of walnut brown broad
cloth; and the seat are upholstered
with similar material threaded with
chalked ebony-strine. Heavy floor
rugs give an added touch of comfort.
Lifts, of a special design, minimize
the effort of raising or lowering the
windows. Door bumpers insure tighter
fitting, and new door grips, both inside
and out, add to the rider s convenience.
The demand for Ford enclosed cars
has been unusually high during the
past two months. Although produc
tion has been spelled up in the Ford
factory at Detroit, sales continue to
exceed the output, making it necessary
for purchasers in many parts of the
country to wait for their cars. Local
dealers say this is the reason they
have been urging customers to place
their ortlcrs as early as possible.

Lincoln, Neb., April 15. Winning
souls by his plow ess as a pinochle
player is the modern method used by
Dr. S. L. Clemmons, pastor of the
Methodist church ef thi-; ci'.v.
The latest "beneficiary" of Dr. Clem
mon's game is S. l. McKclvie, gover
nor of Nebraska.
(Governor McKclvie met the pastor
is "Mr." Clemmons a few weeks ago
on a train. The governor suirge.-tcd
a game of pinochle and lost steadily
"or several hours. Dr. Clemmons, in
lefusing to accept his winnings, re
vealed his identity, and made the sug
gestion that they play one more gi.n.e
to see whether the governor join the
church.
McKclvie accepted, and, to use l is
own expression, "lost the game, l.ut
saved my soul."
The governor was baptized Easter
Sunday, as a member of Dr. Clem
mons' congregation.

and ten pounds of feminine assurance.

I've v; ntured in an aeroplane and felt

And when we looed-tho-1oop I thought

When 1 "mixed 'cm" on the night be

Now she tries to "limb the hillde
now she's headed for the diuh;
Now Fhe dives right In a mud-hole
now she gives a lurch and pitch;
And with rear wheels spinning madly,
makes u slow and sickening slide
Toward the blutr that yawns beside
me, as tho bent on suicide;
Now she hesitates a moment with her
frantic human loud
Then she does a dizzy tail-spin in the.
middle of the road;
Now she strikes a b't of grnvel and
makes progress for n spell
Then she noses in a soft spot, and I
give 'er gas and hell
Curses on 'er
She's a gonner!
For she skids und sk'ds and skids
right in the ditch!

During a Rush
Each telephone operator has a certain number of
lines to answer.
If several people whose lines terminate at one
operator's position lift their receivers at the same time,
they cannot all be answered at once, but only one at a
time.
It is no more possible for a telephone operator to
answer every subscriber at once during a rush of calls
than it is for a clerk in a bank or fctore to wait upon
everyone immediately during a busy moment.
Drop in at the offire nny day nnd wc shall bo
