DEMPSEY TRAINS,
ON'T FIGHT
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24—When wedding bells chime June 1 and mark the wedding of Jack Dempsey and Estelle Taylor, film luminary, the same bells will also sound the death knell to his career as a pugilist, according to statements credited to the champion today.
"I'll probably never engage in a prize fight again after Miss Taylor and I are married, the champion was voted." Miss Taylor does not want me to, and I think it best myself to settle down to a business career."
Miss Taylor was reported as saying that altho she had not demanded that Jack give up his glory of the ring she had tried to influence him to never wear the gloves after their wedding. It was also learned the actress will probably give up her career as a film star and be just plain Mrs. Jack Dempsey, but this decision the champion is leaving to her.
"Jack may think he will never have any use for a good fight hook again," Jack Kearns, the champion's manager was quoted. "But just wait until after June. We'll see."
In the meantime Dempsey is keeping in training.

FEARS FOR GEN.
McCOOK'S GRAVE
STEUBENVILLE, Ohio, Jan. 24.—Complaint that the burial place of General Daniel McCook, one of the famous "Fighting McCooks" of this city, is about to fail into the hands of Georgia tax collectors and that the place is being desecrated, is made in a letter sent to United States Senator Frank B. Willis, Ohio, by Colopel William L. Curry, Columbus, secretary of the Society of the Army of the Cumberland, relatives of McCook here have been advised. Colonel Curry requested that the war department take charge of this property.
General McCook was killed June 27, 1864, during the battle of Kenesaw Mountain, from which place Judge K. M. Landis of baseball fame received his name. At the time of his death, General McCook was commanding a brigade of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois soldiers. After the Civil war, surviving members of the brigade purchased 57 acres of land on which the battle was fought and erected a monument in memory of the general.
It is charged that residents in the region of the Georgia battlefield have been cutting timber on it and disposing of the lumber. The alleged vandalism included removal of lumber from a building on the site. Some years ago, it was pointed out, Congress authorized transfer of the property to the custody of the federal government.
The routine examination of school children is the better way to obtain a knowledge of those who are susceptible to diphtheria and syringa fever.
Beauty is only paint deep.
As a paving material, concrete hearts latent.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS MAKE NEW RECORD
BERKELEY, Jan. — Football players do more sleeping in classes than any other type of student, says Dr. L. M. Moore, assistant dean of women and professor of physiology at the University of California.
"One o'clock classes are always the crowdsest," says Dr. Moore, "because the students have just eaten a hearty lunch, and the functioning of the digestive organs takes the blood away from the brain. When this happens it is difficult to keep awake.
"I have a great many football men in my 1 o'clock class," she continued. "They have great difficulty in keeping awake. This is due partly to the hearty meals they eat, and to the exercise they take just before coming to class."
As an antidote Dr. Moore advises students to cut down on their mid-day meals.
From high living comes low vitality.
It's useless, friend, when feeling glum.
To think that care sucumbs to ruin;
When drowning care, Oh, woe to him
Who does not know that care can swim.

EE SUNDAY
COAST WILL BE HEARD ON TENNIS
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—What is inclegantly termed a squawk accompanied by a demand for the revision of the Davis cup and national ranking committee is expected to emanate from the Pacific Coast promptly with the dawn of another day, if the national lawn tennis rankings, to be made public tomorrow place the name of Billy Johnston below that of Vincent Richards. The West Coast had prepared itself for the worst and only awaits official confirmation of its fears to go into immediate action.
This, in its intimated, will take the form of a sectional demand that California, long the happy hunting ground of front rank players, shall have its place on committees that determine the status of the men in the game. The coast, it seems is against taxation without representation, but will go further than the mere gesture of kicking a lot of tea into Boston harbor. It plans to spill the beans all over the eastern seaboard.
The selection of the last Davis cup team when Wm. T. Tilden and Vincent Richards, the most improved player since Tilden himself came out of the nowhere, were named for singles play, has staked California to the idea that the ranking of Richards abov Johnston this year is inevitable. Out where the sun goes down they regard such a rating as absurd, in spite of the fact that Richards won the Olympic title impressively, beat Jonnston in the East versus West matches and scored successive victories over the Australians in the Davis cup singles.
They maintain that Johnston could have done the same thing with greater facility, sangfroid and effect, and according to the word of one coast player, Elmer Griffin, brother of Clarence some-
BULLS AND BEARS
WATCH ECLIPSE
NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—The total eclipse of the sun was of more interest to the bulls and bears than the movement of stock prices today and the opening of the market was delayed 45 minutes in consequence. Judging from the activity of the market, many traders prolonged their absence from the financial district for the rest of the season.
The market was not active, and, after displaying a firm tone at the opening many of the speculative leaders dropped back into slightly lower price levels as traders crowded into take profits. Weakness in American Woolen was a feature of the early trading, the stock breaking to 52% shortly after the opening, a drop of seven points from yesterday's high.
Market rumors of the big textile corporation related principally to the prospect of passing the dividend on the pfd stock.
Speculative industrial which have been leading an aggressive forward movement in recent sessions were under strict observation, American Sugar opened a point higher at 66 but the stock was offered freely after the opening and it declined abruptly to 52%. Castiron Pipe and American Can displayed more resistance to selling pressure and Baldwin Locomotive kept within a slightly higher range.
Industrial reports at the week end centered chiefly about the steel and oil industries. The Prairie Oil and Gas Co., one of the largest buyers of mid-Continent crude oil, announced its willingness to purchase all of the oil stored for other companies at current prices representing an increase of about 25 cents a barrel over the year and scale. Upward price revisions in crude and refined oil prices were reported all over the country. Higher prices
Laughs and Thrills
In "Battling Bunyan"
When you go to the United Theater to see Wesley Barry in Battling Bunyan which will be the attraction Sunday and Monday, go well fortified for a generous allotment of thrills, an assortment of laughs, and a tear or two that will surely trickle down your nose. It is one of the brightest liveliest and air-round entertaining pictures seen in some time with Wes. Barry wearing long sants and being funnier when he is most serious. Raymond Leslie Goldman's Saturday Evening Post story supplies the plot of "Battling Bunyan" who is seventeen, ambitious and in love. To earn extra money for an interest in a garage, he cuts funny capers in preliminary bouts in the prize ring. His only enemy appears to be a lightweight champion, and when the kid is offered a light with the champ he takes it, hoping to kill two birds with one stone—belittle the champ in the eyes of one Mollie Costigan, and earn the thousand dollars yet epoe. It's a big right with a bigger tollmax.
Wesley Barry is well supported with the following Molle Mallone, Frank Campeau, Chester Conklin, Johnnie Felasco and others.

LAST NIGHT'S FIGHTS
HOLLYWOOD—George Manly won decision over Fred Cullen, 10 California to the idea that the ranking of Richies abov Johnston this year is inevitable. Out where the sun goes down they regard such a rating as absurd, in spite of the fact that Richards won the Olympic title impressively, beat Johnston in the East versus West matches and scored successive victories over the Australians in the Davis cup singles.
They maintain that Johnston could have done the same thing with greater facility, sangfroid and effect, and according to the word of one coast player, Elmer Griffin, brother of Clarence, something vaguely suggestive of backstairs methods is charged in the arrangement of the Richards-Johnston match of the East versus West series.
"Johnston had been given to understand that his selection for the Davis cup singles was as good as made." Griffin declared recently. "He wanted to put in his time in active practice for the international matches but abandoned the idea in order to make the East-West matches more interesting from a gallery standpoint. He had no idea that they were to constitute an issue between himself and Richards apparently he was the only man on the ground who had not been given this understanding.
"Richards won the match, and with his victory, went his selection for the David cup singles as partner of Tilden."
"It is a fact that apparently went unnoted by Mr. Griffin that eastern tennis critics publicly hailed the Richards-Johnston match as an unofficial try-out for the Davis cup for some days in advance of the meeting. And when Richards won, not an astonished eyebrow was lifted as the committee named him for the big event, placing Johnston on the doubles team only for the first time since Tilden-Johnston duo began successful operations back in 1919.
"WONDER TEAM"

What does the year of 1925 hold for the boxing champions, age and small?
Not much to cheer them?
Unless the stars read incorrectly two or three of the royal saints of the royal purple are due to be socked from their kindly throne into the galvanized iron receptacle with the nolay top.
Unless the past 15 months have eaten far into Dempsey's vitality, strength and speed he should retain his crown. Tommy Gibbons, Harry Willis and Quintin Romero Robas loom up as the most probable opponents for him should be decided to return to the canvas. But none of these stands a chance against a man of the caliber Dempsey was when he last appeared in the ring.
Luis Pirpo may get another crack at Dempsey. He looms as a more formidable opponent in one way but the fact that Dempsey has seen his stuff and knows how to handle him would lessen Pirpo's chances, enough to make Dempsey a heavy favorite should they square off again.
Let's pass up the light heavyweight title. It's a joke anyhow.
Harry Greb, middleweight champion, is not a fighter but a windmill. And ever since Don Quixote monkeyed with a windmill and was unhorned the psychological advantage has gone to the windmill. As a champion, however, Greb should not be ranked with the great. It is not because Greb is good that he holds the title. It is because the middleweight ranks number no first class fighting men to contest with him for his title.
The one man who looms right now as his most bothersome challenger is the negro, Tiger Flowers.
Mickey Walker is due to lose his wristweight crown. He is the individual star of the game, scoring 24 of his team's points, 20 of them from the field. Adams followed him closely for individual honors with 22 points, scoring 11 field goals. The entire second team was used by the Passaic coach in the second half.
Marsters and J. Lane of the Arlington team, accounted for 28 of their team's 33 total.
