explained, was quaint to the point
of eccentricity. She chewed to
bacco, used snuff and subscribed
to matrimonial journals, and some
months ago became friendly with
a group of automobile tramps
who camped near her little one-
room home.
One day the woman bought an
automobile chassis, two of her no
mad friends built a house upon it
for her, and i soon afterward the
Mttle cottage on wheels chugged
away, carrying "Cactus Kate" and
her ?frrot and bedding. Driving

tide who weren't impressed with
the severity of theipunches.
Nevertheless jthe boys were
matched for a retur nengagement.
The size of the house was trebled
likewise the i receipts. Knock
downs galore were staged. But
they came too easily.
i The next day 'HInkel. who ref-
ereed both fights, announced that
the last fight had been "hippo-
dromed" and that neither of the
men would be allowed to appear
in . future shows with which he
was connected.
He asserted that he realized be
fore the fight ! ended that the
knockdowns weren't on the up

staged "more out of a desire to
ive the public what it wanted
thin to fake the. fight."
i! Tnta snows again tne reason
why boxing is constantly under
!re. Herculean efforts are being
made in some centers to keep the
fcume clean. In other sections the
men who are In a position to put
It on a high plane and keep it
there are usually interested finan
cially in the game. -
- A promoter cannot give his en
tire time to uplift wUrk or look
at fights and fighters in a clear,
unbiased light if he is! getting a

is only human.

DOC SNELL WINS BY K0
MICKEY O'DONNELL KNOCKED
DOWN 3 TIMES IN BOUT
HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Aug. 14.
Doc Snell, Tacoraa bantamweight,
knocked out Mickey O'Donnell of
Los Angeles in the second round
of a programmed 10-round fight
here tonight. O'Donnell. knocked
out once before by the "blonde
tornado," entered the ring as the
perfect personification of caution.
'Are we at last getting the real
line on the situation existing. be
tween Jack Dempsey. heavyweight
champion of the world Including
New York state and Jack Kearns
the man who led him to the title,
Dempsey's recent statement that
he will manage his own tights in
the future and simply give
Kearns the share his contract calls
for nntll that contract runs out,
indicates as much.
This statement at least verifies
the feeling that all la not congen
ial between the champ and Kearns.
This friction has been denied re
peatedly, especially by Kearns.
I Dempsey's move In signing with
Tfx Rickard for two fights dates
and opponents yet to be named
would Indicate that it wasn't
Kearns belief the champion would
never re-enter the ring that caused
Kearns to seek a new meal ticket
la Mickey Walker.
j The. rumor that Dempsey'a Eur
opean trip was a flop financially
does not furnish an explanation for
his alleged change of heart.
I don't believe that Dempsey
game nau oin ne ana Kearns
were alive to the fact that the raid
ing of such a rumor would draw
considerable publicity. And both
re awake to the value of keep
ing a champion before the public
eye.
Whether or not Dempsey can jm
through with his plan to manag
his own affairs and simply pay
Keams his split nntil their agree
ment expires remains to be s?n.
Kearns will stand upon his rights.
He no doubt will be alive to the
loss of prestige such a proceediu;
would cost him.
