STRIKES STIR
THE JAPANESE
Increasing Number of Walk
outs Causing Much
Attention
Toklo, July 16.—The increasing
tendency of the Japanese workers
to assert their rights and to inter
est themselves in socialism is caus
ing leading Japanese to study the
means of meeting this labor prob
lem. It is pointed out that strikes
are increasing and that as Japanese
labor has no organized voice, the
strikes are liable to lead to danger
ous violence, as in the case of the
rice riots last year. -
The Herald of Asia says that
there js a considerable element af
fected by socialist theories, but that
owing to the severe repression im
posed by the authorities there
is no means of knowing how
far socialism has spread. The jour
nal adds: "That the bacteria exists
here, there is no doubt. It is kept
under so far. but it only smoulders,
ready to break out on occasion. If
socialism cannot legitimately raise
its head, then it will try to do so
illicitly, and the result is- Bolshev
ism and anarchy."
The Journal recommends immediate
and effective improvement of labor
conditions in line with the sugges
tions of the League of Nations, po
litical and educational reform, the
elimination of bureaucratic methods
and a true restoration of the ideal
of democracy.

French and English Champions Who Will
Rank Far Fu st Chance to Face Dempsey
GEORGES CARPENTIER.AN D IN CIRCLE JOE BECKETT
English sporting men think Joe Beckett, recognized heavyweight
champion of their country, has a go od chance to beat Jack Dempsey.
Whether he or George Carpentier, t he French champion, who before the
war was going to the top fast, has th e better right to try for Dempsey's
world title, will be proved when th ese two meet at the National Sport
ing Club In London. Fight critics fear that Carpentler's long absence
from the ring will gi-e Beckett a b Ig "advantage.
Urges Further Protection
For Buck Deer in State
West Chester, July 16. —A number
of deer have been seen recently near
Howellville and others near Morrls
vllle. The first ones escaped several
years ago from a private preserve
near Glenloch and were permitted
to range about the county. Since
then several young ones have been
born, and it is probable a score or
more are making their headquarters
at Barren Hills, near Honeybrook.
Spotsmen of the county are con
sidering sending a petition to the
State Game Commission to close the
season for deer for two more years.
They have been protected the last
two years, but it is feared all the
bucks will be killed wben the season
opens this autumn by hunters who
have them located.
TENNIS ENTRIES IN ORDER
While no blanks have been sent
out entries for the Greater Harris
burg tennis tournament will be re
ceived in writing from now until the
list is closed. There have been many
inquiries. Entries must be sent to
offices of City Park Department, 401
Calder Building.
FEW FACTS FOR FISTIC FANS;
• DEMPSEY READY FOR STAGE
Owing to the fact that Jack
Dempsey, the world's neaw heavy
weight champion, is booked up for
a theatrical engagement in San
Francisco in two weeks, it will be im
possible for him to referee the six
round bout • between Champion
Johnny Ktlbane and the
English featherweight, which is
slated to be fought at an open air
boxing show to be staged by Jimmy
Dougherty in Philadelphia on the
night of July 28. Dempsey had
agreed to referee the bout, but on
account of his theatrical engagement
he has been compelled to cancel the
job.
The report which has been in Cir
culation for several days to the effect
that Jimmy Dougherty, the sporting
man of Lelpervllle, Pa., was to sup
plant Jack Kearbs as manager of
Champion Jack Dempsey is untrue.
When asked about the rumor Dough
erty said: "There isn't a chance of
me being manager of Dempse*.
Kearns and Dempsey will always be
together, as Dempsey is perfectly
satisfied with the way in which
Kearns has looked after his affairs."
Jack Tanner, who promotes all of
the boxing shows at Denver, is try
ing hard to clinch a' match between
Jeff Smith and Mike O'Dowd, the
middleweight champion, to be fought
at a big auditorium in New York.
Jack claims that a no decision bout
between them will draw a |lO,OOO
gate, but in spite of this O'Dowd
will probably not accept the bout
Vic Motan, the New Orleans light
weight, recently honorably discharg
ed from the army, is working like a
beaver so as to get in shape to box
again. Trainer Eddie Cantor is
getting the lad, who gave Charlie
White and Bennie Leonard such hard
fights, into condition. (
Harry Greb, of Pittsburgh, who
has done more fighting this year than
any of the big fellows, has just been
KARRISBT7RG llfljHH TELEGRXPH

AiAong Negroes in South
New York, July 16. — Following
revelations made by the committee
appointed by the New York State
Legislature to investigate Bolshevist
and other anti-American propaganda
in this city, of extensive operations
by the radicals among the negroes of
the Far South, the National Security
League made 'public today a state
ment concerning active steps already
taken by the League to counteract
these efforts.
The Security league states Jthat the
disclosure by the Legislative Com
mittee came as no surprise Jo it and
that the League formulated plans
months ago to actively combat the
influence of the disorganizes and
destructionists upon the negroes.
GAME FOR SATURDAY
The Htck-A-Thrift baseball team
will play the Speese A. C. Saturday

SWIFT TEAM AFTER GAMES
The Swift Company baseball team
wants twilight games. Lee Hocker
is manager and may be reached by
Bell phone No. 3200, between 12
o'clock noon and 1 p. m.
matched by his manager, Jimmy
Mason, to meet George "Knockout"
Brown, the husky Chicago fighter,
for ten rounds at Wheeling, W. Va.,
tonight. Greb is to receive a guar
antee of $l,lOO with an option of
accepting 30 per cent, of the gross
receipts.
George Chip, the New Castle mid
dleweight, who was one of Jess Wti
lard's sparring partners while the
big fighter was getting ready for his
battle with Jack Dempsey, has de
cided to do some fighting again. He
has been booked up to meet Harry
Greb, the sturdy fighter of Pitts
burgh, for twelve rounds at a base
ball park at Youngstown, O. Greb
is guaranteed $1,250. The fight Is
to be fought on July 24.
The fight promoters of California
are again trying to Induce the fight
ers In the East to go' to their State
and engage in the four-round bouts
which are permitted there. Al.
Lippe has just received an offer from
San Francisco for three fights for
Tom Cowler, the English heavy
weight, K. O. Loughltn and Jeff
Smith, the Bayonne middleweight.
The promoters are also anxious to
get Willie Jackson to make the trip
to the coast.
Frank De Rise, who has brought
off many important boxing bouts at
Portland, Me., has signed up Frankle
Burns, of Jersey City, to meet some
good featherweight for twelve rounds
at his Pine Tree A. C. the latter part
of this month. Burns has won every
bout he has fought at that club aud
the fight fans want to see him In
action again.
Kid Norfolk and Jamaica Kid, the
colored fighters, are practically
matched for a six-round bout at the
Philadelphia National League Base
ball , Park on July 28. Jimmy
Dougherty is putting on the show
and this bout will be the seml-flnal
to the main event between Champion
Johnny Kilbane and Joey Fox, the
English featherweight.

Two Games Labor Day
So successful has been the game
played between the Allison Hill All-
Stars and the Klein Chocolate Com
pany, that Manager "Jack" Breck
enridge has proposed playing two
games Labor Day with the pick of
the Allison Hill and West End
leagues. If the two local leagues
can get together on the proposition,
Harrisburg will play at Elizabeth
town in the morning and in the aft
ernoon the Klein team will play the
Stars over on the Island.
It would give the local fans a
good game to witness, and at the
same time will be a financial suc
cess to the two leagues. Even
though the plan does not yield great
profits, the leagues feel that Harris
burg is entithed to see good base
ball, after the excellent support
that has been given to the two
leagues the past season.
