CORBETT SHOCKED BY MODERN YOUTH He Mastered Punch That Won Heavyweight Title, but ‘Shimmy’ Balked Him —Here for Lecture.

James J. Corbett, huge-framed hero of many battles of the prize ring, dawdled a dainty piece of ryebread toast in his powerful fingers, as he ta’-.ied about the battle of life, and the way it is being fought to-

NEW SURGICAL UNIT IS LUSHED Mayor, Health Board Are for Bond Issue. With Mayor Shank, members of Hie city board of health and other officials behind the proposal to erect a new' surgical unit at the city hospital, city council will be subjected to powerful influence to authorize a bond issue of $385,000 for that purpose, it was indicated today. Dr. Herman Cf. Morgan, secretary of the city board of health, today drew attention to insufficient equipment for surgical operations. “With bed capacity of 500 there are only three surgery wards in the city hospital.” Dr. Morgan stated. “Methodist Hospital has 300-patient capacity and ten surgeries, while St. Vincent’s, with 250 beds, is equipped with nine wards for operations.”

day. He spoke Wednesday night at the Indianapolis Athletic Club. There was little of the prizefighter about the well-groomed man, with his shell-rimmed glasses—no “cauliflower” ears, no broken fingernails or ill-shaped fingers. Rather, lie looked the part of the actors —a part the one time world’s heavyweight champion played from the time he left the ring twentythree years ago' until he started lecturing in January. “It’s an unnatural age, a wicked age”—the interview had reached the inevitable younger generation stage. ”1 know young people,” the prize-flghter-iirtor-lecturer went on, nowin -the lecture role. “I have kept young by living with them.” Although he is 59, Corbett has uot a. gray hair and looks about 40 to 45. “I dance with them, their modern dances —but I’m not a. good dancer,” he said. “Why, I remember the first time T danced in a ballroom. 1 just turned and turned on one spot until the girl fainted. I was never so embarrassed in my life.” It was said almost boyishly, with a hearty laugh. “But nowadays, why, if a girl slips, her partner just grabs her and pulls her up,” he resumed. He demonstrated realistically, once more the actor. "Y r es, 1 dance the new dances.” lie repeated. "But. do you know, I never could learn to shimmy. It wasn't that 1 object to the young folks' doing It, but it was just—vulgar, and I couldn’t." That was Jim Corbett, the man, simple at heart—not acting, now. That was Corbett, the lecturer, who loved the ring, as every fighter loves it, who liked the sociability of the stage, hut who thinks he will keep on lecturing, now that he has proved to himself he can talk for an hour and a half —he wasn’t sure, when he started out. "I feel as if I were doing some good.” he explained. He said it simply. He was not preaching. $9,000 ASKED AS FEE Isadore (.1.

Milk of Magnesia Users Try This! Selene* Combines Milk of Mngnewfa With Mineral Oil to Flglit Constipation and Acidosis. Modern civilization with Its heavy overeating and its lack of exercise hns brought two great foes of hntnan health: constipation and acidosis (sour stomach). Vonr Indigestion, heartburn. that dark brown taste In the morning—are all symptoms of this condition.
