Burns' weight has increased to a point where he could not comply with the 118-pound mark dictated- by Pete Herman, the champion of the bantam class. It would be an interesting thing if a fighter of Burns' class entered the featherweight class, 'for there is a woe ful lack of quality among those now in that division. Kilbane still officially is the cham pion of the division and will remain the title holder till Buch time as he formally announces his retirement or is beaten In the ring. It would be advisable for Burns to send a polite challenge to Kil bane, with the suggesUon that the champion make a match with the chal lenger or else resign his title. This would pave th wa;- for Burns to lay claim to the championship and defend It egainst all comers. was cer- ARTHUR DAVS POSED AS COLLEGE STUDENT WHILE IN BAY CITY Lived Quietly at Hotel, Then at Private Residence; Suitcase Was Heavy."

For 18 long years ever since 1901 "Silk" O'Loughlin reigned as one of the game's greatest arbiteVs. In all that time no ball players ever won a bout at ' repartee with him, and no one effer prevailed on him to change a decision. It was O'Loughlin who first said : One or the Other "There is no such thing as a close decision. The man is either safe or out." ' - j.- And he maintained this maxim throughout his career., ' Because of his ability O'Loughlin ' was seldom compelled. to exert the full limit of his futltoritjttn deal ing with players." He ruled with a hand of iron and for that reason he was unpopular with the men In uni form. But "Silk" was the idol of tho fans. He knew the carrying power and resonance of his voice, and he used it to inform the whole coun tryside of what was going on with in the ball park. His famous "strike tuh," often imitated, will live always. Idol of Bleachers Many incidents of O'Loughlin's verbal bouts with the players are told and retold. A player once said to him : "You are wrong. Silk, I tell you, your are dead wrong." "Tut, tut, my ljoy," replied "Silk" in as silky a toje as he ever used toward the players, "where do you get that stuff? I am never wrong. I never made a wrong decision in my life." It was just O'Loughlin's way. He knew and admitted that every um pire may make mistakes. He knew it was only human. But he never admitted as. much to a ball player with tho exception of possibly one instance in a verbal bout which he won, as he always won them. It is told that one famous hitter some say it was Callahan once hit a liner over the wall and pulled up at second to hear "Silk" shout "Foul." "You're crazy. You're blind," shouted the player. "That ball was fair by 10 feet." "You're dead wrong." retorted O'Loughlin, who evidently had pulled a real one, for he is said to have added in a lowered voice : "It was only fair by two feet."

' And the result is now as it has been in the past the ruling sensible automobile value of the season Aside from price, the Model 90 Overland Thrift Car Is the sensible automobile to buy on its record. Over one hundred thousand of these cars are giving their owners service ' that is far more than merely satis factory. It is affording them individual transportation at re markably low cost transportation of the utmost de pendability and real comfort. And considered with the price, $985 f. o. b. Toledo, the intrinsic value is compelling. It establishes Overland, as heretofore, the ruling sensible automobile value of the season. Production cannot immediately be restored to normal. 4- But we have not let price wait upon the lowering of costs through the increase in production. ( We have anticipated it, you have it now, and now is the time to buy. We also anticipate a demand for this car that we must necessarily fall short of fully supplying until we shall fully have restored normal factory conditions. Cars on hand are few. We are doing our utmost and will continue to do everything in our power to bring stocks of cars up to working . requirements with the least-possible delay. Shipments are already moving in fair quantity. Your purchase if made this season should have your attention now.
