Feldman Tonight
NEW YORK. Oct. 13. <*•>—Cctil
ing almost together, the closing of
New York's outdoor fistic season
and the opening of the major in
door campaign serve to affirm
Tony C&nzonen’s place at the head
of the lightweight division and to
fill in a blank spot which marks the
featherweight division in the New
York State Athletic commission's
list of champions.
Tonight's 15-round scrap between
Kid Chocolate, the clever Cuban
; negro, and Lew Feldman of New
j York carries the board s recognition
as a featherweight championship af
fair. The place has been vacant here
since Battalino forefeited the title
through his inability to make the
126-pound limit although Tommy
Paul of Buffalo was recognized as
] champion by the National Boxing
! association.
Last night, in the chill breezes of
! Ebbets field. Canzoneri opened his
assault on the Petrolic family with
a smashing three-round knockout of
the Junior member, Frankie, in a
; non-title bout. Next month he is to
defend his < own against the older
and more experienced Billy Petrolle.
Canzoneri weighed 132 1-2: Pe
trolle 140 1-4.
PAT. LA RUE
MEET FRIDAY
Pai O'Brien and Frenchie LaRue
I will headline the wrestling card at
the V. F. W. arena tonight and what
a battle that should be.
Last wee'. O'Brien won from Red
t Lindsay- and LaRue obtained a
draw with Ar, Mondt. All or which
goes to prove that the fight Fri
day should be a dlhg-dong affair.
O’Brien is extremely popular witn
the fans. His wide victory grin nev
er fails to pull out the applau.se,
and. when you come to think of it,
he must be ? pretty good grappler,
too.
LaRue. on the other hand, did not
prove popular In his start against
Mondt, but he did flash a lot of
power. Anyone who can hold the
Beaumont old timer to a draw must
be good. The Frenchman did not
mind mixing tihngs up pretty lively,
eithfr. He can slug or wrestle, de
pending on his opponent’s choice.
Stellar Tiger
Back Is Injured
MERCEDES? Oct _T3. _ Gloom
fell over Tiger field Wednesday
when it was learned that Joe Bai
ley. 165 pound plunging fullback,
was injured and would likely not
be able to get into the game
against San Benito here Friday
afternoon. In scrimmage against the
"B" team Tuesday Bailey plunged
the line and received what Is be
lieved to be a fractured shoulder.
Coach Schma’.zried slates X-rav
pictures of the shoulder would be
made Thursday to determine ex
tent of the injury. With Bailey out
of the came. Mercedes is given
little chance of defeatmg the fast
stepping Hounds as he was the
principal ground gainer in the Ti
ger-Weslaco game.
The Tigers do not have other
backs with his capabilities for
plunging the line and pass de
fense. Coach Srhmalzried was
using Gessling in the fullback post
Wednesday with BaUev watching
from the sidelines.

How to Avoid
Stomach Gas
First thing — throw away your
magnesia, soda, and all the other
stuff like that.
Then eat what you like and don’t
worry whether you can digest it or
not. For if you will simply take a
tablespoonful of mentha pepsin
(artificial stomach juice) before
your meals, your once weak stom
ach can handle anything without
a bit of trouble.
No more gas. fullness, pain,
bloating—all are gone, says Mc
Kays Pharmacy, or you can have
your money back—Adv.
WAKE UP YOUR
LIVER BILE—
WITHOUT CALOMEL
And Y'ou’ll Jump Out of Bed in

If you feel sour and sunk ud the we/id
looks Bunk, don't swallow a lot of ra.ta,
mineral water, oil. laxative randy or chvoting
gum and expert them to make you suddenly
■weet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
For they can't do it. They only move the
bowels and a mere movement doesn't get at
the cause. The reason for your down-and-out
feeling is your liver. It should pour out two
pounds of liquid bue into your bowels daily.
If this bile is not flowing freely, your food
doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels.
