SANCTION FOR BIG BOUT
Chief of Police Phil Smith Announces Permit is Granted fOr Leonard Dundee 15-Round Battle.

New Haven, Dec. 19--For the first time since announcement was made that Benny Leonard and Johnny Dundee will box in New Haven Jon. 16, Police Chief Phil Smith admitted that @ municipal permit had been given for the bout. He said that he had received assurances which satis- fled him that the match would be merely, a 20-round boxing exhibition and not championship go.
 The contest will be staged in the arena where the Yale hockey team formerly played it's scheduled game on artificial ice. There is a seating capacity for 10000 people, and al ready fancy prices are being paid for tickets Vincent Reina, a local pro- moter, heads the company which is making the local preparations.
 Alderman David Fitzgerald, the best known boxing referee in Connecticut is said to have been engaged as the third man in the ring at the bout. Un- til last night no confirmation was DOS sible of the report that a permit for the bout had been issued by New Ha- ven police authorities.

YALE TENNIS TEAM
 MAY GO ABROAD
Eli Athletic Board Considering
 Trip for Netmen and Crew

New Haven, Dec. 19-BOth the Yale crew and the tennis team are consid ering a trip to England with the track team, which has proposed to Harvard to cross the Atlantic next summer to meet Oxford and Cam bridge in duel field and track events if the English universities regard the plan favorably.
 No definite action has been taken by either the carmen or the wielders of the racket, but the graduate ad- visory committee in both of these branches of Yale sport and the gen. eral athletic board of control of the university are wrestling with the problems involved in such a trip.
 While the proposed track team trip has reached the stage where Yale has sent Harvard a formal invitation to join her in making the arrangements with the Englishmen and where a definite tentative proposition, amount ing to challenge, has been sent to Oxford and Cambridge signed by Pro- lessor Clarence W. Mendell, chair man of the Yale athletic board of control, the proposed crew and tennis trips are purely in the discussion
 
 will cost $25,0O0 and a canvass is ai- ready being made of enthusiastic Eli alumni for contributions to defray the expenses of the journey The rowing adventure will cost nearly as much, and the tennis trip about $10,00O.
 Whether the enthusiasm of mon eyed Yale men will lead them to finance all three trips is the main problem to solve, for the opposition of conservative members of the fac ulty and the athletic council is not likely to lead them to prevent the trip, in the face of the sweeping de- mand on the part of undergraduates and majority of the faculty and alumni athletic committees that it be attempted by all three teams.
 Whether the English universities could finance return trip in another year or two is another question. Most of the enthusiasts who favor the three trips by the present Yale teams are not driving 8 bargain with the Brit 1shers or insisting upon such an iron clad agreement.

OSTRICH TRADE BOOMING;
 AFRICA, THANKS AMERICA

There were 776,OOO in South Africa before the war. Low prices caused many farmers to turn loose their birds, which is the cause of the unprece- dented number Of wild ostriches- which are of no use because the feath- CTS are poor.
 Tame Birds Fight; Wild Ones Don't
 Wild birds. strangely. are not pug nacious like tame ones. The latter are ugly customers, especially cocks in the mating season. They take a leaping stride, said to be 32 feet, swerving with marvellous agility, strik- ing down a man with a blow of the foot. You can keep them off, if you're wary, by sticking a long pole, tipped with thornbush, in the face. Or a sharp blow from a stick will break
 leg or neck.
 Captive ostriches are fed on alfalfa, pebbles and broken bones. A pair breeds three times a year. matching as high as IT eggs each time. Os- trich eggs are on sale here. But they are eatable only as an omelet-one egg sufficing for a whole boarding house.
 All feathers come here and are sold by auction. I saw one table holding

FRONTENACS MADE GREAT RECORD IN
 W|N|V|NG AT ASCOT

The Thanksgiving day speed event on the Pacific coast, the 50 mile auto mobile race on the Ascot speedway at LOS Angeles, Calif., proved a victory for Toe Boyer and the Frontenac that had already won first place for him in two pig races of the year at Uniontown, Pa. and Cincinnati, Ohio.
 This inaugural race of the western racing season saw Q field of twelve last cars at the line for the start, in cluding many of the drivers who are well known in western racing circles. Boyer drove a fast nonstop race and finished the fifty miles without a stop Hls car was equipped all around with Goodyear cord tires. His time was Al minutes, 30 4-5 seconds. average speed of 73 miles per hour for the entire dis tance.
 The race was wonderful victory for the Fronteuac cars, as the first three to finish were of this make. Rosco Sarles winning second prize driving the same car with which Gaston Chev- roleti lowered the worlds record for 15O rnles at New York last September, and Joe Thomas, piloting the F'rontenac which has been driven during the past season by Ralph Mulford. Art Kline al the wheel of the Peugeot finished fourth. Sarles also drove q nonstop on Goodyears.
 The Ascot race was not without its usual thrill. Ira Vairs Philbrin and Reeves Dutton's Sutz collided. turned turtle and bounced off the track. Neither driver, however, was seriously hurt.

Mir Laferty:
 You are working now always on your own time The more you accom- plish. the greater are your profits at the end of the year. Remember. things that are possible are as good as done, while things that seem impossible must be done anyway
 Apperson Bros. Automobile Co.
 This is the new slant the Appersons have on the labor problem. And it has just about put their labor problem in the past tense.
 The Appersons now give their men 25 per cent of the net profits for the year-over and above their regular wages. which are high. This dividend is declared at the end of the year
 MT. Laferty'' is one of the Apperson mechanics-and his partnership in the concern is shared by every employe in the plant. A reminder of this part nership basis is put into the weekly pay envelope of every Apperson work CT. These reminders are in the form of message from the company, writ ten on the back of a card that carries a cleverly worded message of homely business philosophy.
 Out of the whole series of fifty two one for every week in the year only one has been found on the ground. The men really like them, take them seriously-take them home
 This profit sharing plan has had a remarkable effect on the volume of production and especially on the qual, ity of work. The men realize now much mistakes cost them personally, so they simply don't make them. So from the standpoint of the manufac- turers it has been a successful plan for keeping up and even increasing the Apperson quality.

INHERITANCE TAX

The latest recruit to the inheritance tax movement is none other than Will H. Hays, chairman of the republican national committee. Speaking to women voters of New York, he said:
 There should be a large inheritance tax on the very large inheritances."
 This would result in the breaking up of mammoth fortunes when the builder of them has passed away. Such a tax would not destroy initiative. It would not be a tax upon business. It would not be tax easily passed along to the ultimate consumer. It would be col lected at less cost than other taxes.
 The inheritance tax would not inter- fere with any persons ambition to ac- quire wealth. It would not take wealth from the wealth producer, for it steps in only after the producer has left his wealth behind him.
 The fair inheritance tax would never take cent from the widow or other dependents that they needed. It would confiscate the excess, which rightly be- longs to the society from which it sprang.
