GcorBo opposed Mickey Donley, a natlvo Italian from Newark, and won nt the end of tho fourth round. Mickey took n terrible hentlng nlAnit the body nnd did not rexponri to tho bell nt tho beginning of tho fifth. Donley Allowed that he was dlnercct, and discre tion Is far better than valor In a enso lllto tills, when It Is only a question of tlmo before ho would tako tho count. Chancy showed that ho Is a hard hit ter nnd Vlescrves tho tltlo of "Knockout King." Ho has a wicked punch In cither hand, and when he lands It means good night. But, nt tho same tlmo, George did not look lllto a champion. Ho la a fighter, not a boxer,' nnd keeps after his man, pounding nway nnd taking n punch to land one. Ho covers up like n hugo crnb, wades in nnd docs all of his best work nt closo range. A boxer Ilko Kllbano, who has a good left Jab, wilt have an easy tlmo with Chaney, Those nt tho rlnssido last Satur day night wero of tho opinion that Johnny could Btop tho llttlo Bnltlmorean In less than ten rounds. Kllbano enn hit hard and nono of tho smaller boxers has a hotter left Jab.

It will be remem bered thnt Chnncy's Jaw is not very strong, na old Mat Brock had him down for tho count In Akron four months ago and It wns only tho bell that saved him from a knockout. Donley had tho better of the first two rounds last Saturday night, nnd had he necn able to keep away from thoso wicked body punches there Is no doubt but that ho would have won. Mlckel's action In quitting nfter tho fourth was well taken by tho crowd, as all realized that he had dono his best nnd was In no shape to continue. Tuber Gets Chance, "From preliminary to wind-up in eight months," should bo the tltlo of tonight's scrap nt tho Olympla when .Too Tuber meets tho famous Johnny Ertle. Tuber has trained hard for tho boi nnd Is In shapo to glvo tho clalmnnt to tho bantnm title ono of tho hardest battles of ids career.

Joe was entered In ono of tho numerous nmntcur tournaments in a local theatre, and cop ped tho barrel of flour or diamond ring, or whatever they slipped the winner. uiier KnocHing out 17 of the 21 hoys ho faced. Tuber knew nothing about tho nner points of tho game, and depended on ul.i wallop to carry him through. Ho was a tough boy, nnd attracted tho nt tcntlon of a flock or managers on a. still hunt for a new meal ticket. Last July Joo decided that boxing for glory was lino to read about, but Jt sel dom worked bufpro'pcrly In ren'l life. Ho wanted tho money and his Job In the silk mill, which brought him tho princely salary of JG a week, began to get Irk some. Ho decided to make' a chango, and nppenrcd at tho National In tho first bout against Eddlo Morton. Joo put Eddlo to sleep In tho first round, nnd Is said to have received J12.50 for his "work. TIiIb was better than 56 a week, so Tuber took up boxing for a living. At this tlmo Herman Hlndln took him under his managerial wing, and Joe started to work regularly. Ho defeated Bobby McCann, and drew ISO, and after- ell TWO heavyweight bOUts Will nrerrHn ui. wind-up. Wllllo Moohan, the well-known humorist, who refuses to tako tho box ing game seriously, will hook up with Jack Hubbard, a hugo sailor, who knows how to sail n boat and lnnd a hard nunch occasionally. The other bout is between Homer Smith, nlleged champion of Michi gan, and Larry Williams, our local pride, who was forced to gain a reputation in other cities. This should be the best bout of tho night. Tommy Duck, local featherweight, has re lurncil linma after u (our momhii' may In the Mlddla West.

Is it the one car which is accepted as the pattern of v - . . -i. Look? back over the past twelve years and ask yourself so wide an influence over the industry. Ask yourself if motor cars, as a whole, are not I). Cadillac progressiveness ana uaauiac initiative. You recall that the first Cadillac was also the first practical, enduring motor car. You remember the period in which the Cadillac inaugurated the thorough stand ardization of parts. You remember that the Cadillac accomplished also the first production in large quantities of a really high-grade car at a moderate price. The introduction by the Cadillac of electric starting and lighting is still fresh in your memory. And you know, finally, that the Cadillac, as a climax to its other constructive con tributions to the industry, brought forth the high-speed, high-efficiency V-type engine. Around the world that V-type multi-cylinder engine is admittedly at the zenith of design and of efficiency. And the Cadillac has pushed the process of perfecting the V-type engine to the highest point yet attained. Upon its first appearance the Cadillac Eight received the unique tribute of a larger purchase on the part of other makers than any other car has probably ever known. Its scientific design and superb workmanship compelled their most intense admiration its performance was pronounced nothing short of marvelous. If the Cadillac had not been the standard of the world before, the V-type multi cylinder Cadillac would have made it so. It has become the standard of the world in smoothness and in swift acceleration, in flexibility and in hill-climbing power. It is the world's standard inits incomparable roadability, its luxury, its ease of operation and control, and in absence of fatigue after long journeys. These characteristics, added to its world-wide reputation for dependable and enduring service, have furnished for the industry new inspiration new incentive! new goah for ambition: Is not the Cadillac deserving of the title it has so long and so honorably held? Is not the Cadillac, in fact, the Standard of the World?
