Flivver Supplants Pony, Otherwise Shelby Is Relic of Old Western Days

SITE OF DEWY title mm IS ENJOYING BOOHS Red Onion Case, Stag Horn Bar Are There, but Beer Is ‘Near,’Bv 808 DORXIAN NBA Service Writer SHELBY, Mont., June 2.—The old West, the West whose passing has been mourned In poetry and prose, is not dead. It Is only a little changed—at least in Shelby, where the Gibbons-Dempsey bout for the world’s title is to be held July 4. Flivvers have driven most of the patient cow ponies from the hitching racks, but all the rest of it is there. Familiar scenes, faked on the movie lot and embalmed in celluloid, greet one on evdry side. Boots and Broad Brims The wooden station with the attendant idlers, wide-hatted and with high boots greets your eye first. From there you step into the dust of Main Street. Modem brick buildings, the last word in architecture, rub shoulders with wooden shacks, thrown together inside of twenty-four hours. A tent, with a faise wooden front gets your attention next. You glance at the passers-by. And Cowboys, Too Here comes a cow boy, dressed like the heroes of the screen, his spurs jingling an accompaniment to his tuneless whistle. Following him is an Indian, dressed in blue jeans, his black haifi" hanging down his back in two long braids. Then two girls, one, thp cow girl of the movies; the other, a vision of Broadway. But alas, her dainty shoes are covered with the all-pervading dust that covers all in Shelby. a On every side buildings are rising from the gmund like magic. Wooden huts, wooden bungalows, their unpainted sides glistening in the sun, dot the landscape In all directions. The smell of fresh cut pine jingles the nostrils. Oil Is Everywhere Teams hauling lumber, teams dragging oil machinery, autos from which all paint has long since departed, strive for places in the narrow dirt roads which pass for streets in Shelby. The Red Onion restaurant attracts your gaze from the King Tut dance palace. The Stag Horn Bar has near beer and much nearer dance hall music.

Great Falls Sees Champion Jack Dempsey in Fistic Action

DEMPSEY HAS HARRY DRAKE, ENGLISH HEAVYWEIGHT, DOUBLED UP WITH RIGHTS AND LEFTS TO THE STOMACH. DURING A WORKOUT AT HIS TRAINING CAMP NEAR GREAT FALLS. MONT.

MM Player drives ball into sand trap, it being an easy matter to follow flight of the ball, as the distance It traveled was not great On reaching sand trap the ball is not in sight, but a mark where it struck and traveled a lew feet, before imbedding itself hi the sand, enables player to locate position of the ball. What is proper procedure for player to make before his next shot? Must the player drive ball from where he believes it is located, or lias he a right to brush aside sand before taking his next shot- Is there penalty attached? If the hall Is entirely buried in sand, yet player has a fairly good idea of its location, he may brush aside .enough of sand to enable him to see top of ball. There is no penalty atached even if ball should be touched. If perrhanre yon should unrover a trifle more than the top of the hall, don’t recover it as you have no right to do so, • • • Has a player the right to ascertain whether opponent's ball is out of bounds or not before his opponent can compel him to play? In a recent match between two rivals, which was welded by one Strok" one of the players insisted on finding out whether his opponent s ball was out of bounds before he shot, claiming such information would influence his “tv]e of play, determining whether he should take a chance or rlay safe. Section 3 of role 23 says a playqr has the right to ascertain whether hts opponent’s ball is out of hounds or not before being compelled to play his next shot.

The card was to start at 3:30 and the main number was expected to get under way a little after 5:30 (eastern daylight saving time). Criqui, because of his war record, was the sentimental favorite, as Carpantier was against Dempsey. But the boys who wager money were not influenced by sentiment and Kilbane was ap #tc> 5 favorite to retain his title. Those who figure the whys and wherefores dope it that Criqui is at tho best a good European fighter, and no European "take it” in the body. Kilbane is admitted to he the smarter fighter and the better boxer of the pair. Criqui repeated his prediction yesterday that ha would win by a knockout in six rounds. He said that he was going to carry the fight to Kilhane and that he was strong enough and skilled enough. “The fight will by over almost before you can get it in print, so I'll let the fight Jo the talking for itself," Kilbane said this morning.

The final score was 9 to 6. The last game of the series is to be | played June 6 between Manual and j Shortridge. Tech is now in the lead : with three games won and one lost. Manual defeated Tech in a previous j encounter in an eleven-inning contest, 6 to 5. Woempler Relieves Cleary Cleary started on the mound for Manual' Friday, but was at a loss as to just xvhat to do with the Tech bunts. After three runs had come in Woempler took up the burden and pitched well with the exception of the sixth, when two singles and Chet Jordan's homer accounted for three runs. The kind of a game Tech resorted to is easily seen in the box score. The east siders were credited with ten sacrifice hits. And though they were meant for sacrifices, the unsteadiness of the Manual inner works permitted the hunter to reach first safely time after time. Fast Start Is Made Tech opened up in whirlwind fashion and scored three runs in first Inning. Two more counted in the sec-, on! and one in the fourth. Manual got one across in the fourth jon Becker's double and Snowball's ; single. Their big inning was the fifth ! in which five runs went across and | tied the score.
