Bout Ever Had in Los Anqeles.


Los Angeles Dec. I6-Kid Herman
Of Chicago beat Eddie Eanlon OF san
Francisco In the fercest twenty-rounJ
fight ever seen IN Los Angeles. There
was not a moments pause from start
to finish Of every round that the two
lightweights were not In action ana
the gong found them fighting. Hanlon
forced the pace and made Il a terrific
one from the very start. and never for
an instant gave ground.
The eighth. ninth and eleventh
rounds were about the best Of the con-
test Hanlon appeared 20 have the ad-
vantage In strength. In the twentieth
round Hanlon had Herman very tired
and as the Chicago man lost his guard
on the stomach Hanlon pounded him
about the body and had him stagger-
ing. Referee Eyton's decision was pop
ular. Hanlon was the favorite IN the
betting at 10 20 8. but Herman was
strongly supported.

Fear Ouernroduction-

With the reduction of the cotton acreage has come a fear of over3r9- duction in other farm products From reports which have been received from throughout the state. it is es- pecially feared that there will be big oycrproduction of potatoes this year Many dealers have reported that they have sold more seed pota- toes during the present spring than they had sold in past ten years. WiJh the exception of a district in the west ern portion of the state little of the potato crop in former years has been shipped outside the state There has been little more than was needed for home consumption. Unless some large market is found for the product it is feared that the farmers will realize little from their crop
