NEW YOKK, May 19 Just two
men east of the Alloghenies don't
know a blame thing about condition
ing a fighter for a big row. Every
body else knows all about It. The
two "stupids" are Jack Dempsey and
Georges Carpontlcr.
Jack has decided not to use .-.
trainer. That finishes Jack ask
any handbook ahlete along Broad
way. Carpentier Is going to do very lit
tle running on tho road for tho good
of his wind. He thinks ills wind is
good enough anyway and, in case
it isn't, he'll tighten It up by a
little high jumping, hurdling, sprint
ing and rowing on tho machine. So
that'll be good night, for Georgie.
They're both licked.
Dempsey lias made his decision
in the face of Jess Wlllard's awful
mistake In Toledo. Jess eliminated
the tyranny and expense of a train
er with one thrify swipe and also
eliminated his championship. How
over, Dempsey may know best.
Carpentier's training methods
and his camp surroundings are I
something new in tho world. There's !
barbed wire all around the old Mat
thews place In Manhattan. Until:
he gets into his machine to drive'
to Jersey City for the great battle!
on .July 2, Georges will not go out-i
slue those entanglements except to
take his quiet, early morning walk
ing and sprinting exercises. I
"Ho trains when he trains," said
Gus Wilson, Georges' boss trainer.1
"Over in England ' when we were
aining for the Beckett fight Prin-I
cess Maud Invited George to come
to a tea one afternoon, just for an
hour. It was a great honor. But
George would not accept any inv.'
tations until we carried him crvlnir
tho mother owl to catch and kill ro
dens which venture about the man
sion. From rodents to other pe3ts is
merely a turn of language, as tho
president illustrates.
But, he admitted, it may, after all,
prove to bo another "nature fako."
THE FORUM
To Editor Chronicle: I noticed
in your paper in reference to the
new n-dto camping grounds west or
Mill creek, calling it Dalles Illihee
park. It may be all right In a way,
but it's like getting "the cart be
fore the horse."
the word Illahee, means country,
earth, the ground, soil, jand; Tipso
illahee, grassy land, tho ground,
soil; Sah-ha-lee, illahee, hills, moun
tains, and does not in any way re
fer to a resting place or resort. It
seems to me that The Dalles Auto
Illahee would bo much more pre
fcrrable if you havo and regards for
the Chinook Jargon. Then again,
"Auto Mit-llte," Is far better. The
word mit-llte means to stay, camp,
to sit, remain, and In Chinook Is
very suggestive. The word is entire
ly appropriate and good Chincok.

FRENCH GEN. HOLDS WARM
SPOT FOR AMERICANS
By United Press
OUSbELDORF, Geimany. Goi-
j oral Gaucher, who commands the
i Fr.icli and Briti.di foices of occu
pation in Dassoldorf, has a warm
spot in his heart fo.r the Am-rijin
Army. By the medium of thin dis
patch he wants to be cordially rs-
, menibered to General Camercn, tr
: General Menoher, to General John
'son and to General MacArthur.
, It was under Gaucher that .the
famous American lilnd, or Rainbow
Division, received its baptism of
fire. Gauchor's eyes light up when
he speaks of tho Rainbow lads, and
particularly when he mentions thai
fine young soldier, "the Mac-Arthur"
a general who "was oftentimes ahead
of his own first li::e infantry in an
advance.
Then he was in command over
Cameron of the -lib Division in Mic
famous counter-." ttiu-.k of Julv JS
1918. He tells with relish cf low
he and Cameron shaded the a a mo
"P. C." during that operation and
controlled the development of their
share of it. Later the general was
shifted to Belgium, ind there had
under him the 91st or Pine Tree
Division of the Yanks, hailing from
"the Pacific Coast nd mountain
states in general, but from "Powder
River" In particular.
"Your men aro brave," says Gen
eral Gaucher, "but sometimes too
brave, and a bit imprudent. II re
member once they went into a town
without arranging for their water
supply coats, off, fighting in theii ,
shirtsleeves and took the place m
short order. But like all Americans
they had been eating too much
sugar, either In their coffe or else
where, and got thirsty. So they
abandoned the town and fell bacc
to get water and supplies.
" 'That doesn't matter, General,'
they told me when I remonstrated.
'Now that we've had our water,
we'll go back and take it all over
again!'
"'Yes, but, my children,' I tola
them, 'You may take it back again,
but in that way you'll have a big
cemetery. And that is worth think
ing of!'"
