tells how he tried an experiment last

survived a similar test In the first
the stand secured was much thicker
than IN that grown from the old seed
but the ears in that part planted with
old seed are so much larger that the
thin corn will produce more bushels per

the corn is fully convinced that even
had the stand been the same the older
seed tho Of the same variety as the

HURLEY BOXES FAST BOUT
Slightly Outpoints Cy Smith in
WhirI of Blows,

Battling Bill Hurley, the "Passaic
Thunderbo1t.' slugged his way to a hard
won victory over Cy Smith in a ten-round
bout at the Olympic A c. of Harlem last
night. Followers of the sport have seen
many fast bouts in local clubs, but seldom
have any even approached the contest of
last night For ten rounds the boys
worked in a whirlfng dervish of blows
Hooks. jabs, counters and swings followed
each other in a never ceasing variety.
Both scored often and hard, but Hurley
landed the greater number of clean blows,
and in the opinion of the majority OF the
non-partisan spectators entitled to the
decision, had one been rendered
There was little sparring. Both are ag-
gressive, hard hitting boys. Hurley. how
ever, displayed what little science was ex-
hibited in the bout, and saved himself
whenever possible
He blocked with greater skill than he
has ever shown in any of his bouts. and
many of Smiths hardest punches found
their final resting place on the elbow or
glove. Hurley also showed marked I'M
from punches which would have been dam
aging had they landed.
Smith was stronger than his opponent
and had the advantage of eight pounds in
weight He forced the fight from the first
gong TO the final second and never for a
moment did he concede defeat Fast. pow
erful and aggressive, Smith showed a glar-
ing lack of headwork and was outgener-
allied from start to finish Several times
during the contest he tried to batter down
Hurley's guard when the latter was cover
Ing UP in order to save his strength, but
he only succeeded in hurting his hands.
In the later stages Smith directed his at
tack to the body, and, while he landed,
Hurley was never in danger.
In the eighth round Smith accidentally
fouled Hurley, but the latter refused to
stop. and returned TO the charge with
greater speed than ever.
The seventh round was full of action.
Smith tore across the ring at the sound of
the gong and swung both hands for the
head. Hurley stepped inside and ramned
both hands to the body and uppercut his
right to the face. Smith shot his right TO
the body and Hurley rushed in close with
left to the face. A wild mix-up followed,
with Hurley landing the cleaner blows
Both were tired at the bell.

HARVARD PUTS FOOT DOWN
Says Hockey Games Must Be
PLAYED in Boston, If Anywhere

Cambridge. Mass, Dec 12-Insistence or
the part of Yale and Princeton that ths
annual championship hockey games with
Harvard be played as usual in New York
threatens TO prevent either one OF these
competitions taking place this season
Harvard some time ago sent out it's hockey
schedule. providing for games at homs
with both universities y protest iuns-
diately arose.
An ultimatum was issued tonight thac
unless the hockey games with Yale and
Princeton were played in Boston Their.
would be no such contests this year.
Harvard explains its stand by pointing
to the availability of the new indoor skat-
ing rink in Boston and to the fact that as
it has in previous years played the ma
jority OF its championship contests In New
York. il is now entitled to some home
games
