PACKEY HOLDS TO
THIRTY AS LEADER
Manager of Stockyards Boy
Denies Story That They
Had Separated.

Emil Thirty. mana ger of Packey Nc
Farland. yesterday drove a ten penny
spike into the report that he and the
champion Chicago lightweight were on
the verge of break and nailed it down
so hard and fast that 1t will not get in
to circulation again FOR long while.
Thirty wasn't exactly pleased when he
read the newspapers which told of the
threatened split and last night made II
his business to deny that such action
on the part of Mcfarland himself
had been contemplated.
HeTsaid that Paekey himself had cali
ed off the match scheduled for tomor-
row night at New York in which the
Chicago fighter was to have fought
Young Hickey because he did not feel
well enough to go into daily training at
the present time. The manager said
that he did not expect to land a match
for Mcfarland until after the first of
the year. and he is of the opinion that
the next bout will take place in Cali
fornia.
Incidentally Thiry announced that he
has another lightweight championship
aspirant under his managerial wing In
the person of Willie Richie of Cali
fornia, the youngster who lost a twenty
round decision to Freddie Welsh on
Thanksgiving day after he had been
notice for Champion Ad Wolgast. The
manager and fighter will leave for New
York on Wednesday,. where Richie has
been promised several ma tches by Pro-
motors Billy Gibson and Tom O'Rourke

BAR DODO BALL. SAY
CHICAGO BOWLERS.
Local Association Will Ask
A. 3. G.. to Rule Against
Trick Bulb.

Dodo ball shooters will be as extinct
as the bird that used TO hear the same
name If the plans OF the Chicago Bowl
ing Association are Endorsed by the
American Bowling Congress 1t its next
meeting in Chicago early in March. The
c. b. A officials were banqueted Satur--
day night by Louis Bensinger. and dur
ing the dinner q discussion OF the dodo
came up. resulting in vote OF the exc
cutive committee asking Judge Howard
TO draw up a resolution barring 1t from
all further meets. 1t the rule to bar the
ball is indorsed by the national con-
gress it will mean that Chicago will be
the last city to hold national tourna
ment where the trick ball will be al
lowed. Under the rules of the A B. c.
she ball is permitted at the coming
meet. and the ban probably will not
be placed against the BAH until after
the big meet. Chances favor Howard :
drawing UP a rule that will also bar
loaded balls along with the dodo, al
though under certain conditions the
officials have not shown the antagonism
to a loaded ball unless it was weighted
on one side only in order to produce ar
artificial hook

UNCLE sam, THE ICE
MAN, HAS STARTED
ON COOLING ROUNDS
His New Plant in Operation,
And. Turning Out Five
Tons Daily.
Uncle Sam. the ice man.


That Is the new role in which the
versatile parsonage is appearing.
With facilities for turning out five
tons of crystal ice a day, the new plant
which has been placed in operation in
the basement of the State, War, and
Navy building. is supplying ice for the
departments In that building, the White
House, the Treasury and many Gov
ernment bureaus close by.
Because the first batch of ice was
made of undistilled water taken from
the city water pipes, fifteen tons of 1t
is being allowed to melt and run away.
Any one who cares to call for 1t can
have as many of the big 30-pound
cakes as desired.
The ice now being made is of distilled
water. The water is placed in the big
cans and frozen there by an ammonia
brine that surrounds the tin, but does
not come in contact with the water.
An appropriation of 5000 was made
for the installation of the ice manufac-
turing apparatus. The machinery has
been installed and placed in operation
at a cost of several hundred dollars
under that. The Government expects
the plant to pay for itself in less than
three years, for it has been paying 5
a ton for ice under contract, is now
making it for 81, and when the ma
chine is in perfect working order will
make it for about 81 a ton.
