YOUNG SAYLOR
QUITS RING GAME
Believes He Is Ready to Take
It Easy; Pace Too
S\\>ift
New York, Dec. 20. —Milburn Sav
ior, for years a contender for the light
weight championship of the world, has
hung up his gloves for alt time. Ho
was knocked out in a couple of rounds
by Jack Perry last week and decided
that it was time to cease his serious ef
forts in the roped arena. He never
was In the fight and was floored seven
times before his seconds tossed in the
towel.
After the bout Saylor admitted his
inability to do what countless hundreds
of other fighters have unsuccessfully
attempted to do. defy Father Time. He
announced he was through and would
return to Indianapolis to devote him
self entirely to the railroad business,
which line he adopted several years
ago.
"Youth is the thing in the mitt
sport," sighed Saylor, "and there is no
use to deny it, 1 felt good, trained well
and thought I was a good as ever, hut
the old staying qualities are not there.
The slightest rap on the jaw sets my
brain to buzzing now, when I used to
be able to shake off hefty kayo punches
•—l'm through."
Hu<l Groat Career
Few lightweights in the history of
fistlana have had more active or bril
liant careers than Milburn Saylor.
Never a champion, but always a willing
worker, the Hoosier lad has fought in
nearly every city in this country as well
as Australia, and when in ids prime al
ways gave a good account of himself
no matter whether victory or defeat
rested on his banner.
For nearly fifteen years lie lias been
before fistic fans, and for more than
half of that time lie lias been recognized
as a topnotelier. He has defied Father
Time for the last five years, but ids
showing against the young Pittsburgh
scrapper shows conclusively he is
through and a contluance in the mitt
sport Is but courting probable disaster.
The courage is there, but his muscles
will no longer do the bidding of a brain
made active through years of experi-

Manila Will Take Edison
Junior Hi?h For Model
That Harrisburg is making an in
ternational reputation for erecting
the proper kind of school building
was proved this week when a rep
resentative of the school department
of Manila, Philippine Islands, called
on C. Howard Lloyd, the architect of
the Edison Junior High school, and
requested that .Mr. Lloyd explain the
design and construction to him.
The representative had been in
Washington getting data on school
buildings all over the United States,
and Harrlsburg was chosen as the
model in Junior High schools. Mr.
Lloyd has been requested to submit
drawings of the Ediccn building, and
in nil probability will be asked to
design a somewhat similar building
for the Manila school system.
The Manila representative told
Mr. Lloyd that of all the high schools
he had inspected, the Edison was
the best type.
Is seen here with Admirnl llodtnan
after i!i<? nnvnl o(Hct*r hud ruitf<J the
