Leonard Meets
Kansas Monday
Rocky's Latest Fights Un'
impressive, But Champ.
Not Ouer Confident.
By wEsrBRooK PEGLER.

NEW YORK, June 2'-before

ing himself licked by a third-ratcr,
Rocky Kansas, the lad who stopped
Ritchie Mitchell in one round, VIII
be put in the ring with Bennie
Leonard, lightweight champion
over in the Harrison, IN. j. ball
park Monday night and advised to
go do his darndest. For a while
Kansas looked very plausible pos
ing as a candidate for Leonard S
title, but after knocking Mitchell
out he made a second and less
impressive showing with the Mil
waukee lightweight, lost to Jump
ing Johnny Dundee and made only
a fair showing in outpointing Gene
belmont. Dundee got a newspaper
decision over Kansas in Milwaukee
Still, Leonard had some respect
for Kansas, because Benny refused
to meet him at all in New YORK,
claiming the judging system here
might deprive him Of his title on
the erratic judgment of one man
However. IL Benny can let Kansas
stay i2 rounds in Harrison Mon
day night, being a business man.
he might coach the public along
to make a great big thing out OF
a second fight, this time to de-
cision, in New York next fall
Kansas got his fling at the title
first by stopping Mitchell and beat
ing up Willie Jackson in Madison
Square garden. The Jackson fight
was a good one. and Kansas looked
then like a hard fighter. The Mitch
ell fight wasn't much to judge ty.
because Ritchie had been pretty
badly Jared by Leonard in the great
fight they put on at the garden
some weeks previously. in which
Mitchell was stopped in the sixth.
Kansas has a peculiar build. with
very heavy arms and shoulders, a
small waist and thin legs. He is
mighty hitter and he showed
against Jackson that he wasn't a
dub as a boxer. either. although
nothing near as clever as Leonard.
The challenger has been training
on fights. like the man who ate
six apple pies to test his appetite
before entering a pie-eating contest.
Leonard has been boxing with local
lisht-weights and doing some run
ming through the parks.
Eugene Corri, the famous English
referee. has accepted Tex Richards
invitation to be his guest at the
ringside for the Dempey-Carpentie :
fight July ..

sey. and Francois Descamps for Car

the roadside and the yard in front

PANIC DANGER PAST,
SAYS GOV. HARDING
(By Associated Press.)

WINSTON-SALEM, N. c., Jan. 21.-
Even pessimists are now convinced
that danger of an "old-fashioned pam
ic" has passed, Governor w. P. G..
Harding, of the Federal Reserve board
declared here today, speaking to the
Chamber of Commerce.
II think" he said, "the develop
ments of the past 80 days have con-
vinced even thase who are never so
happy as when miserable that not
only has all the danger of great fin
ancial crisis or money panic been pas
sed but that business generally is
safely over the most critical and try
ing stage of the readjustment period
while many predictions were made
that an old-fashioned panic was in
evitable, | never once doubted the abil-
ity of the federal reserve systm to
prvent any such condition.
"The decline in prices was neces-
sarily disastrous to those producers
who had gone heavily into debt with
the expectation that the level of prices
which existed a year ago would be
sustained or even advanced, and in
many individual cases great losses will
be suffered, but in so far as the COM
munity as a whole is concerned, there
is no question of solvency."

EIGHT men KILLED
IN FIGHT THURSDAY
WITH SINN FEINERS
(By Associated Press)

DUBLIN, Jan. 81. - Eight men,
seven of whom were constables, were
shot and killed in engagements with
Sim Feiners near this city yester-
day. Six of the constables met death
when their motor car ran into an am
buscade, while the body Of another
was found near the barracks of his
squad yesterday morning. The civ
ilian slain was shot by several men
who entered his home.
Announcement has been made that
in future all motor cars carrying con-
stables, and therefore likely to be at
tackled. will carry members of the
Sin Fein as hostages.
This has been in operation near
Cork, where martial law is in force
and has, it is said, acted as a prevent.
ative of attacks on parties of con.
stabulary. Recourse to the hostage
system here where martial law has
not been declared, caused general
surprise.
Houses Destroyed.
Two three-story houses in Cork
were destroyed by British army en-
gineers yesterday as an act of of
ficial reprisal for an attack made on
crown forces in their neighborhood
The buildings were shattered by
dynamite, and reports reaching here
indicate that several adjacent struc
lures were severely damaged.
Major General Sir Edward Strick
land, commander of Grown troops in
Ireland, stated yesterday at Cork that
martial law was producing beneficial
results and that arms are being sur
rendered by or captured from Sinr
Feiners. He admitted, however, that
only a handful of Irish Republican
leaders had given themselves up to
the British government, and added
that his men were most seriously
handicapped by the activities of WON
en-, who were carrying arms to fugi
tive Sim Feiners.

fRv Associatea Press,

MADRID, Jan. 21-Premier Dato Sc

of deputies last night when he called
for a vote of confidence. The re-

Gated his cabinet would not resign as

Yesterday afternoons session of the

action of the government in connec-
tion with the strike of civil officials

strike has threatened to spread to
other departments and has caused

TROUBLE SET
ASIDE TODAY
BY HARDING
President-elect Speeds South
With Fishing Rods and Golf
Sticks Dismisses Business
Cares.
TO REST IN FLORIDA
(By Associated Press)

ON BOARD PRESIDENT ELECT
HARDING'S TRAIN, Jan. 21.-With
his troubles packed in a kit bag that
he intends to keep tightly locked for at
least two weeks, President-elect Hard
ing turned his thoughts to golf sticks
and fishing rods today as he journeyed
southwark for vacation in Florida
The association of nations, tax re-
form, the choice of a cabinet and all
other topics that have been keeping
long hours with him during the last
six weeks in Marion, are to be put as
far away from his mind as possible
until he has had good rest. His
Marion conferences frequently have
kept him busy from early morning un-
til late at night, and the strain and
lack of exercise have told materially
on his physical condition.
Has Been Busy.
Not once since his return from
Panama early in December has he
been able to visit his favorite play
ground, the golf links. Walking has
been his only recreation and he has
found little time even for that.
A fishing trip down the eastern shore
of Florida is to occupy the first two
weeks of his stay in the South 1t is
his hope to be completely isolated
from observation during the period,
though he may venture forth once or
twice to play golf. Early in February
lie will take up his residence in St.
Augustine hotel, where he will remain
until just before his Inauguration.
Arrives Sunday.
Mr. Hardings private car which left
Marion at midnight, went southward
today attached to regular passenger
trains and was to pass through Chatta-
nooga late in the afternoon and reach
Atlanta during the evening. He will
arrive at st. Augustine, Sunday. Two
who have been his companions on all
his trips since his nomination, were
not included in the party aboard the
private car today Mrs. Harding re-
manned behind to dispose of personal
affairs in Marion, but will come to
Florida after shopping trip to Wash
ington and New York. Dr.. c. +. Saw
yer. who accompanied him as person
Il physician during the campaign and
on the Panama trip, is kept in Marion

south. =-
