HERE is no worry or anxiety in rearing Baby healthfully and happily, even in a tropical climate, when Glaxo is used as Baby's food.
GAZO is the food that has been used to rear the children in five Royal Nurseries. Coart Physicians see that Royal Bables have the best and most nourishing food- that is why Glaxo has been 'chosen.
Give your Baby Glaxo, and watch the difference after a few days; see how restfully he sleeps, how contented he is and how steadily he increases in weight. Ask your Doctor i

The match on Saturday next well provide interest mainly in the dis- closure of the strength of the Chinese Athletic, whose doings this year will be watched with interest. I have been informed that the Athletic through business reasons removing one or two players from the Colony, will not be the force this year they were last; also there are rumours of changes in the management. But the Athletic possessed a rare lot of reserves last year and Saturday's game with the "Rest of the League" should give us the opportunity of gang-| ing the strength of the League champions.
To-day Monday, the Kow- loon A.F.A. hold their annual meet- ing, which I am informed is being eagerly anticipated by the mem- bers, and discussion is promised on many interesting points.

Both ends were visited in turn, and there were several narrow escapes, but it was not till after 45 minutes' play that the Club got another goal, this time through Watson. The Police had very hard luck and should have, at least, brought the score level before the final whistle blew.

MANY ASPIRANTS.
FOR TUNNEY'S IDLE CROWN.
RIOKARD'S DILEMMA
New York, Sept. 15. Here they come! The thunder ing herd of heavyweight prize view, making more noise about fighters is pounding down into their individual and collective claims for Gene. Tunney's vacated title than a mass of thirst-crazy buffaloes headed for the desert
waterhole.
Warning of the impending stampede came from the plains of the Argentine. It was in the form of an announcement from Luis Angel Firpo, "Wild Bull of the Pampas," that he would begin training immediately to fight his way into position as the outstand- ing title claimant.t
Acting by intuition, Tex Rickard, master promoter, escap- ed to an isolated golf course where he will remain until some of the sort of order is made chaos reigning among the behe- moths of biff.
Meanwhile those in a position to do a bit of preliminary bally- hooing are sounding off. Here are samples of their thoughts, verbal and written:
"Jack Sharkey, can beat, the best of them. His decision loss to Tom Heeney was a mere acci- dent Jack Dempsey had to foul him to beat him."
"Johnny Risko can't be denied. Didn't Tunney say he was & great fighter?".
"Tommy Loughran is the mas- ter boxer heavyweights. He can outbox 'em as fast as they throw 'em into the ring,”
"Paulino Uzcudun is the best qualified of the lot. He can box and hit and he has colour."
"Knute Hansen is the hardest hitting heavyweight in the ring to-day. If he had half as much training as Tom Heeney had pre- paring for Tunney he would be unbeatable.”":
There the major speculation ends. But there is always food for thought for the wild eyed ones in the expectation that both Firpo and Jack Dempsey will try to come back. This is the idea that fascinates even Rickard.
While Rickard remains in the background, his lieutenants are sorting the names of "title" claimants who will fit in nicely when the drive, heralding the in- evitable "elimination" series, be ging.
Another month or so will ex- pose the next move of the heavy- weight herd. The first of the big clashes between the milling con dors probably will be held at a big outdoor show. After that the eircus will move indoors where the process of constructing the next championship bout will be carried on throughout the winter with the crisis timed for arrival for a big 1929 outdoor exposition.Asso ciated Press.
