Big Boxing Bout This Evening.
The most interesting and thrilling
event in the mid-winter sport season
will be the boxing match, this Friday
evening, in the new Staie theatre, be-
tween the clever fighting bunch from
Cook Academy, New York, and the
Bellefonte Academy. A very exciting
match is promised, because Cook Ac-
ademy has a very strong team, hav-
ing defeated the locals at Montour
Falls, N. Y., early in January. Of
course, it must be noted that captain
Ducanis, the student coach at the
Academy and a “star” on the local
school boxing team for the past two
years, did not box in Montour Falls.
He will be in the ring at the State
theatre. Suckley, the light weight,
is a wonderful boxer, He won a ae-
cision at Annapolis, Saturday night,
after four hard rounds were fought.
Temple and Sample will, also, make
a fine showing against Cook Academy.
Sample knocked his opponent out in
the third round at the U. S. Naval
Academy last Saturday. Temple held
his opponent at the Navy for four
rounds. Hubbel defeated his oppon-
ent at Cook Academy. So you can
see the calibre of the pugilists who
will battle for Bellefonte Academy,
on Friday evening. Boxing is the
most popular and the best attended
of all winter sports. Ladies are just
as fond of the sport as the men and
make up a large part of the audi-
ences. Intercollegiate rules make un-
pleasant scenes impossible.
Prices—Ringside seats, $1.00, they
must be procured from Mr. Charles
Hughes. First ten rows down stairs
and the first five rows in the gallery,
seventy-five cents. All other seats
fifty cents. Reserved seats can be
secured at the Gross Pharmacy.
—The average consumption of gas-
oline per car in Pennsylvania, last
year, was 430 gallons.

trol.

lege Tomorrow.

—The State College wrestling team
lost their first contest of the season,
in the armory at State College on
Saturday, to Iowa State, the score
being 19 to 8.
Fillmore, was found dead in his own
home, last Thursday afternoon, by his
nearest neighbor, Charles Biddle. The
latter was attracted to the Dunlap
home by the whinnying of the horses
in the barn and the chickens cackling.
On going to the Dunlap house he
found the doors all locked so he went
to the kitchen window and looked in-
side. He saw Mr. Dunlap lying on
the kitchen floor and he felt quite cer-
tain he was dead, He went at once
to the home of his son, Allen Dunlap,
and informed him, and the two men
returned to the elder Dunlap home.
All the windows being fastened they
were compelled to break open a door
to gain entrance. They found Mr.
Dunlap cold in death. A physician,
who was summoned, said he had prob-
ably been dead two or three days,
and death had likely resulted from a
heart attack.
Deceased was a son of Harry and
Amanda Dunlap and was born neax
State College a little over sixty years
ago. His parents died when he was
only a lad and when sixteen years of
age he went to Buffalo Run valley
and that section had been his home
ever since. He married Miss Belle
Taylor who died two years ago, but
surviving him are two sons, T. K.
Dunlap, of State College, and Allen,
living near Fillmore. He was the last
of a large family of children.
Funeral services were held at his
late home, on Saturday afternoon, by
Rev. Clyde L. Huett, pastor of the
Evangelical church, at State College,
burial being made in the Pine Hall
cemetery.
—During the coming season the
State will undertake 3560 different
road projects in Pennsylvania.

—TFire, about nine o’clock on Sun-
day evening, partially destroyed the
tea room, at the Triangle, at Bald
Eagle, resulting in approximately five
thousand dollars damage. Mrs. W. C.
Bayne, the proprietor, is seriously ill
in the Altoona hospital, and her scn,
W. C. Bayne Jr., was in charge at the
time. The fire originated in the rear
of the building, where the lighting
system is located, but the exact cause
has not been determined. Tyrone fire-
men saved the building from total de-
struction, The loss is mostly covered
by insuranca,
—Dr. L. Ernest Smith, who gave an
illustrated talk, Tuesday evening in
the Presbyterian chapel, telling of his
work as a medical missionary in
South Africa, was a most delightful
and convincing speaker, and greatly
impressed his hearers with the need
of assistance in his work among these
people. With a decided personality,
he so attracted the Academy students
in his talk to them during the after-
noon, that fifty of them heard him
for the second time, when he told of
his work in the chapel that evening.
—The addition of Vaudeville to the
superior picture programs at the
State theatre has been the cause of
much commendatory comment. The
first booking “The Six Jolly Jesters”
has scored a distinct hit because theirs
is a presentation of so much higher
class than was anticipated. It is real-
ly a “big time” act and the manage-
ment assures the public the best the
town can afford will be booked. We
are advised that the vaudeville for
next week will be right up to the
standard set by the “Jesters.”

‘prit has not yet been located,
