our desire to promote a project for
street extension that we knew. meant
a great deal to the city of Hammond.
We were told that it would be impos-

Credit to Viewers.
Aagreat deal OF credit is being Civ
en- TO the viewers, Messrs. Elmer Mann
and John Donnaha, both of Crown
Point, who had the nerve to recommend
the project even though it promised to
cost nearly three times as much as
any road that had ever been built in
the county.
As it turns out the bid is way below
what any one through it would be and
everybody is delighted. An investiga-
ton of the matter. however. shows
that the contractors played a great
game of diplomacy all of the way
through to throw each other or the
scent. 1t is reported that William ALL
born called at the office of Ray See
ley, the county engineer, and insisted
that he would have to raise the en-
gineer's estimate or the contract would
probably not be let. That. however, is
an old contractors trick. and there is
some question as to whether or not ii
had any effect on the other bidders.

CLABBY IS
BACK HOME

Jimmy Clabby Hammond's pugilistic
star and challenger for the welter-
weight crown OF the world. returned
from Milwaukee, Wis, last night where
he handed the much touted George
Knockout" Brown of Chicago. the
worst lacing that he has ever received
during his fstic career Outside of a
slightly swollen optic which he receiv-
ed from one of the Greeks misguided
swings and a bruised left hand, Jim
my is hale and hearty and bears no
marks of punishment
Talk of the Clabby Brown encounter
last Monday night are still aliye iii
Hammond and scattered in little
groups in various corners of the city,
night fans are eagerly discussing the
fight round for round. As near as can
be figured, Jimmy simply made a chop
ping block of the Greek, who after the
fight agreed for the first time in his
career that the willy Clabby was too
much for him and that he had received
a severe beating.
Clabby was somewhat discouraged
upon hearing that some of the fans
had been knocking the fight. because he
was unable to make the Greek come
out of his shell. In fact, Clabby did
show that he tried TO make the Greek
fight. but it was useless and was the
reason that made the bout look tame
and slow. Brown fought the same
style as he did in Hammond in order
to stay the limit with Clabby. Every
effort Clabby made to force Brown to
open up, the Greek went into a clinch
and teh referee was powerless to pull
Brown away, as he hung on like a
| leach On the breakaway. he took his
| only chance in hopes of landing a wild
| swing. but C1abby simply stepped out
/ of their danger. Clabby was also sick
| when he left Hammond and only tipped
the scales at lat pounds. while the
Greek struck 15S.
There Is question now but what
| C1abby is in line to battle Eddie Nc
| Goorty, who is endeavoring to hold the
| title in the welterweight ranks AL
/ though he holds a victory over Mike
| Gibbons it is probable that the pair

ing the Hammond boy for nearly g
year, will have to give him a chance

BILL ATTRACTS
ATTENTION HERE
Minister Interviewed on the
Topic of Sunday Theaters

Considerable interest is being taken
here in the Gearing bill at the capital,
which is to legalize Sunday exhibitions,

A Hammond minister said today:
1T is not a question or the right or
wrong of the Sunday amusement, but

NEW BOOST
IN OIL PRICE

Pittsburg. Pa, Feb. 6.-For the first
time in almost twenty years the oil
purchasing agencies today quoted $3.50
for Pennsylvania crude. That price
was announced at the opening of the
market 1t, was an advance over the
close of yesterday of cents barrel.
and was taken additional evidence
that the available supply of this par
ticular grade of crude had fallen far
below the requirements Of the refner-
les. There were no advances In the
other grades of crude oil quoted here.
The sensational rise in crude oil has so
unsettled the market for the securitiNs
of oil companies that a number of
brokers announced today that such Sc
curities would no longer be carried on
margin, which virtually places all
transactions in them on a cash basis.
