By NORMA* E BROWN
Speaking of boxing or were we?
Gcprg«» Carpentier has started his
*final tour and last appcargnce” in
America And he bid* fair to make
it one of the greatest object lessons
ever offered American fighters.
He is going to show in 10 and 12
round lessons how science can baffle
brute strength youth and a high-
powered wow
Carpentier is dohe as a fighter. He
is bumf out. He shot his all in that
memorable fight with Jack Dempsey.
He showed against Tunncy and Gib-
bons that he is no longer to be
reckoned with.
But he is still the old master in
ring technique boxing science and
ring generalship.
He demonstrated that in the opening
fight of hi* present visit against
Kddie Sailor Huffman. The latter
would have battered down an ordinary*
fighter of Carp’s physique age and
stamina. As it was Carpentier gave
Huffman a boxing lesson. The young
Mississippiun was dazed by the way
C;.rp darted hij» right hand in and out
as a crack fencer does his rapier.
Unable to get past that darting right
in any other way Huffman had to re-
ly on the slugger’s on# bet—rushing.
It W83 what solid smashes he landed
H-
in these that gave him what rounds
he was awarded.
Carpentkr will draw a crowd wher-
ever he appears this triprrras he al-
ways has. Thera ire a few of us left
who still like tp see (something be-
sides murder in the ring.

Have you noticed the interesting
condition in the American League
race at the present writing? Six
teams in the Circuit boast winning av-
erages—or did up to the last game or
two. And these winning records have
been compiled at the expense of two
clubs—the St. Louis Browns and the
Boston Red Sox. Which indicates
how badly things have been going
with the latter teams.
Little was expected of the Red Sox.
Fohi started oat with almost a com-
plete new outfit mostly of inexperi-
enced players. He was expected to
labor mainly to whip some kind of a
team into shape for next season. But
the Browns were expected to be in
the pennant fight from April 13 on.
Instead George Sisler seems to be
struggling with a badly disorganized
ball club.
Gad what a bunch of hitters that
team has. what a seemingly good in-
field and this cop pled to a pitching
staff that rates better than many a
staff boasted l»y various big league
outfits in past seasons!
Despite this the team is flounder-
ing about in the depths. Something
is going to blow up in St. Louis one
of these days.
of the ninth and one was forced out
it second leaving n man on first
and third. The next man up fanned
and then Campbell went to bat for
Emery. He doubled to score two
runs and to imperii the Brownsville
lead. Garrison butted for Moore
and sounded out to Bisbop Clements
at short.
Par lain got two hits altogether
Tuesday poling out a single in ad-
dition to his home run. Bishop
Clements contributed a couple of
singles.
Shores turned in a nice game for
the Brownies and worked well in the
pinches. He fanned Courtney dan-
gerous Bobcat hitter three times
twice with the bases full. There
also were men on base the other
time Courtney batted but the bags
were not loaded.

San Benito moved out of the cellar
in the Vallejr league again Tuesday
by" virtue of their victory ovor Wes-
laco while the Harlingen club was
idle and sank to the bottom of the
heap.
It was a batting spree in the first
of the tenth inning that gave the
Saints three runs which the Indians
eould not overcome in the last half
of the same frame .
The score was tied at five-all at
the end of the ninth inning San Be-
nito 'having overtaken a Weslaco

The Saint runs were scored as a re-

doubled. Their blows chased in three

Doctor Warns Against
Long Sun Treatment
(By The Associated Press.)
LONDON June 2.—Sir Henry
Guavain has issued a warning against
the abuse of sunlight treatment and
has advised parents to have the ad- !
vice of physicians before they sub-
mit their children to extended sun-
light treatment. /
In the opinion of this distinguished
doctor there is a tendency to overdo
the use of sunlight in the treatment
of weak children and he says it may
even be fatal if an ailing child is
exposed too the sun for too long
a period.

The Cardinals unbeatable during
•pring training daya apparently
have recovered from a long slump
which amazed critics throughout the
national circuit. The Browns a
strong first division contingent last
season after groping blindly in the
depths of the American league for
weeks at last have emerged from
the cellar with six victories out of
their last seven starts.
Heavy hitting an outstanding fac-
tor in the comeback of Sister’s men
blazed the way for another triumph
over the Tigers yesterday. & to 7.
Sister led the offensive with a steal
home to tie the score in the seventh
frame after which Gerber’s hit drove
in the deciding St. Louis runs lle-
tioit suffered loss.of fourth place as
■ a result of the verdict Chicago mov-
ing up to the vacancy.
The march of the’ Cardinals was
temporarily checked by the deter-
mined Cubs in a see-saw swatfest
which produced five home runs.
Heathcote posted a pair of the four
baggers Hartnett collected another
which cleared the sacks in the third
inning while Bottomley chipped in
Jiis ninth of the season. The score
was 10 to 9.
Other games in both leagues with
the exception of a skirmish between
the Giants and Phillies were deluged
by rain. The Quakers made a strong

PLANNING ANOTHER
.WILD HORSE DRIVE
' / y - y f
(By The Associated Presa.)
BOZEMAN Mont. June 2. Last
year the foreet service initiated the
plan of rounding up and disposing of
all wild horses within the confines
of the national forests and plans to
contniue the drive this year.
In 1925 there were 300 head cap>
tured in the Gallatin national forest
alone and it is estimated that there
are 600 of these useless animals still
within this forest range. Through-
out the national forests of the state
there are thousands more. _
Some of these animals were at
one time domesticated. They were
turned out to forage for themselves
and those of the least value were
not rounded up. In time many of
them became wild and the onee that
survived the winters and prefatory
animals breeded with other bands
and thus herds were formed.
The advent of machinery has caus-
ed such a depreciation in values that
many horse owners do not make
claim. In this case the forest ser-
vice advertises for sale and the ani-
mals are sold to the highest bidder.

Black and White Soap and Oint-

commending them to their friends

The Ocean Beach
Driveway
Will start operation of a ferry from Point Isabel
to Padre Island commencing
Thursday June 3
at 7 a. m.
«
This ferry service will be by a small
barge and tug. The barge is only capable
of handling 4 light weight cars such as
Fords Overlands Chevrolets and Stars.
We cannot handle big cars as yet.
The beach drive is now safe for a dis-
tance of 25 miles north of our Padre Is-
land Pier. Regular schedule and special
Sunday schedule appears below.
We expected to have started this ser-
vice with our regular ferry boat which is
under construction in Houston. The
“MITZP’ was taken for inspection on
Thursday May 27th and developed a
fracture in one of its main gears. The
builders concluded that if one gear would
' " " ;i ’ f(lt -
not stand the strain that the others would
not and that they would make an entirely
new gearing for the boat. The Hartwell
Iron Works of Houston started Saturday
morning on this job and agreed to work
continuously day night and Sundays un-
til finished. It is expected that this boat
will be finished and ready for inspection
' by Thursday June 3rd. It will require a
week to make the trip from Houston to
Point Isabel. In the meantime we will op-
erate as stated above. No passengers will
be carried on the barge with the cars but/*1
will be carried on a- launch
leased. Our inspector Mr.. Donovan Wi-
nans will look out for the safety and com-
fort of our patrons* Mr. Winans will be
on the boat every trip. \
Mrs. C. T. Somerville at the Red Arrow Inn Pt. Isabel will
be the comnanyf*4gent at Point Isabel. Tickets should
be bought from he** or from our Brownsville office.
Rates on the ferry are 25c higher than if tickets are pur- < ff; | ♦
