frantic S. O. S. for boxing shows is
akput to be answered. Nope Hed Gil- i
lejpio did not complete plans for his <
pjnnised exhibitions, nor did the Y, <

, lOund affairs. But just the same T.
t 5. Arthurs, who lends a helping hand
to Salisbury's pugilistic fraternity, is
going to invade towel territory with a
and promote open air exhibitions.
Mr. Arthurs, so it develops, will
stake his first show the latter part
of March. He has obtained license
from the Salisbury com mission to con
trol Rowan county in this line of
sports. The local site for the propos
ed show has not been selected but it !
is understood to be about one-half
mile from the heart of the city, over
the liowan boundary line.
This news came straight from the
Salisbury promoter, who says the samp
men that grace .the Salisbury shows"
will appear on local cards. If the.
plans materialize the shows fill be
the first since lust April, when John
S. Carpenter put on several hot cards.
From that time the Y. M. C. A. has
monopolized every branch of athletics,

Among the other important an
nouncements was that "Pee Wee" i
Bussell and "Speedy” Tate will in all
likelihood appear on the next Salis
bury program, which is slated for
Christmas night. |
Tnte stirred up a little friction sev
eral days ago by his announcement
that he was forced to fight Herm Ba
frit. after the referee had awarded
Tate the victory on a foul and it was
thought that he laid seen his last day
under the Arthurs regime. But the
dimiuutibe eneourager declared after
a consultation with the boxing fathers
that all "bygones” are now “bygones”
and Tate could have a return bout
with Nafrit. if he expressed a desire,
for such. At the present Tate is in
Kings Mountain hut he is expected
to accept tiie offer on his return to
tile city. Bussell’s opponent is yet
to be selected.

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
Inauguration of Gov. Smith Jan. 1
To Ediptte All Previous Ceremonies
By RAYAIOND I. BORST
(International News Service Staff
Albany. N. Y.. Dec. J6.—The in
auguration of Governor A1 Smith on
January Ist, as chief executive of New
York State wi',l eclipse all previous
ceremonies of that nature ip the his
tory of the state.
In the first p)ac« it will be, the
first time in the lristory of the state
that a governor has ever been inaug
urated for the fourth time.
When Governor Smjth was inaug
urated two years ago for the third
time it was at first believed he liad'
established a record. A careful study
of the state's history, however, siiowed
that back in the days of the early co
lonial governors, George Clinton served
for three terms.
This year's .inaugural will get un
derda.v a trifle later in the day than
those of other years. This has been
decided upon to enable New York
Ofty delegates to come to Albany on
New Year's morning on the Empire
State Express. The railroad has
promised to run additional sections
of the Empire State if the crowds

warrant it.
The ceremony will |et underway at
12:15 o’clock. No persons except
state officials will be seated in the
Chamber after that hour. 1
The assembly chamber will be deco
rated more elaborately this year than
ever before. In addition there will
be a short musicals program.
Extensive radio hook-ups now are
being planned for an air audience of
perhaps several million. Amplifiers
will carry t'.ie proceedings to the over
flow crowds in the Senate chamber
and hi Capitol Park, to the East of
j Jtfie capitol.
1 State troopers will act ns ushers.
Major John A. Warner, superintend
ent of the State police, is a son-in-law
of Governor Smith.
There will be fewer persons on the
inaugural platform this year, because
four instead of seven state officials
were elected at the last, election. Mem
bers of the families of all the newly
elected state officials always have been
.given seats on the platform.
The ceremony at t’.ie capital will
be preceded by a military parade
which is expected to be the largest
and most brilliant in the city’s history.

Several of the state’s oldest mlljtaryl
organizations are expected to partiei-j
