y when boxing flourished in Califor-
mia, Johnny LOTUS was one of its
leading lights on the West coast. He
trained Jimmy Britt and Jim JEFF

out of obscurity into a championship.
For several years now LOTUS has
made his home in Philadelphia, and
he Is both manager and handler for

Hickey apparently has no estab-
lished pre-arranged plan. He seem >
to guess in a haphazard way, trust
ing to luck TO bring success to his
many moves that appear eccentric
to others.
In a certain game q pitcher who
had been taken out of the box was
told to go and warm up by Hickey.
Why, have just been taken
out" said the pitcher.
We'll, go and warm up. Just the
same" replied the manager.
Now, such eccentricities can not
but help to put Rickey's players up
in the air. 1t does not appear to be
management at its best. Anything
that upsets the players can not be.

St. Louis folks were In the seventh
heaven Of baseball delight over the
bright prospect OF their National
League representative beating out
the giants. The Browns, too, were
in the running for the American
Leagues highest honors. Ecstatic
vision Of both teams leading their
respective organizations were preva-
lent In the Mound City. h
The tumbling Of the Cardinals
from their high standing In the
race by the Giants put smothering
damper on their supporters. but
hopes of the Browns ultimate sue

The card will get under way at
o'clock and should be completed by

reach their homes in plenty Of time

all under the supervision Of the
Maryland boxing commission.
frankie Rice is well known to
washingtonians. He is today the
best boy Of his weight in Baltimore.
He IL not a fancy boxer, nothing like
that. He is a rough. rushing cave

with two such wildcats hooked up
for twelve rounds. ring fans may be
assured in advance that they will set
their moneys worth. Referee p. F..
OConnor, who will officiate In the
main bout. will very likely require
all his well-known strength to break
these lads. 1t Is on account Of
O'Conhor's superior height ard
strength that he has been named to
officiate In the Rice-Fizgerald CON-
test. A smaller man would be holp-
less.
While there IL no bad blood be-
tween these lads, neverthei the
Philadelphian is coming to Berwyn
on Monday intent on proving himself
q far better man than Rice. Fitz-
gerald believes that, in having q
draw called In his mix-up with Rice
in Baltimore, he suffered from wnat
has been termed "a Baltimore de-
cision." Rice's brilliant finish In the
last round swayed the referee to call
II an even break, multiplying the long
, lead Fitzgerald had been piling up
from the very first round.
Fitzgerald, who boxes regularly
In the various clubs In the Quaker
City. has faced about all the tough
lightweights In the country, with
the exception of the champion.

ins and outs Of the game and
really believes himself entitled 70

Stin. Hickey has continued this
plan ever since he first took charge
ot a team. That. without doubt, has
caused dissatisfaction among his
players.
Rickey's assignments of his pitch
ing staff has resulted in constant
turmoil among the members of bis

direct. He has a hobby evidently Of

He IL noted among scorers as being
the manager who puts more players

Twice has the Philadelnhian bat
tied Johnny Dundee in eight-round
bouts In the Quaker City. Their
first meeting was such a sizzler
that they were hooked up again
for q return affair. No decisions
are given In Philadelphia, but the
majority of the experts called both
battles even things.
Fitzgerald's knockout record Is
not especially long, but he has
dropped Larry Hansen In five
rounds, Johnny Donnelly In four.
Walter Parker in nine, Johnny
Drummi' In eleven, Frankie Brown
in six, George Brown in three,
xArchie Walker In seven and Johnny
Socco in six.
Archie Walker Is considered a
capable performer around New
York, but Fitzgerald outclassed
him, finally stopping him IN the
seventh round.
Fitzgerald has defeated Bobby
Barrett in eight rounds. He has
hung up twelve-round decisions
over Gene belmont. Charlie Pitts,
the Australian, and Shan u Q
O,Brien. He has decision over
Tony Caponi in fifteen rounds and
drew with Benny Valger, the
French "flash," over the same dis

WIPING OUT THE ATLANTIC.

Some freight expert with a penchant for stating
graphic form has figured that famer haul
bushel of wheat mile with team and wagon at
cost of cent.
For the same price the railroads can haul a bushel
of wheat thirty-three miles.
And for the same figures, a steamer can haul
bushel of wheat 800 miles.
There is the whole argument for the Great Lakes
st. Lawrence waterway in a nutshell.
1t would turn long rail haul into water haul
and eliminate several landings of the grain.
The present of hauling bushel of grain from
the Red River Valley to Liverpool by the way of the
Lakes is 1925 This total is made up of
several items There two rail haus, from Fargo
to Duluth and from Buffalo to New York There
handling charges at Duluth Buffalo and New York. and
also the lake charge and the charge When these
items separated the total of rail haul is 246
the total water haul 1885 cents; and the total
handling charge These figures vary slightly
from month to MONTH but they approximately cor
rect.
this it will be seen that the land haul Of some
500 miles consumes than so per cent of the total
while the haul 900 miles and the trans
fer charges amount to less than 40 per cent.
If the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway were
completed, the rates might be figured follows: To
Duluth III cents; elevator charge at Duluth cents
Duluth to Buffalo, 3.25 cents; buffalo Montreal 225
CENTS (estimated); Montreal to Liverpool 20 cents
present cost Of 1925 cents a saving 121 cents
bushel.
That is saving of more than the present ocean
rates In other words, it wipes out the Atlantic
as freight factor and moves European markets
New England seaboard. Looked at in another way it
the Red River Valley onethird the way to it's
European market permitting all of the northwest region
to compete on an equal preferential freight
rate basis with the South American and Australian
wheat growers 1t would be cheaper to ship wheat
Fargo to Liverpool this route to ship from the
wheat regions of South America Australia to Liver
pool At present it isn't cheaper contrary it
more expensive for these countries have but rail
haul and then trip.
Farmers must compete for world markets just as
businessmen do, and if North Dakota compete on
equal basis with it's chief competitors must have the
Great Lakes Waterway and an ocean port at Duluth
Fargo Forum.

ALWAYS WITH US.

When the question Of statehood discussed in
Minnesota surprising ignorance of the possibilities of
the state displayed by delegates to the con-
stitutional convention For instance, there con-
siderable group who desired that the line be
the fortysxth parallel. This would have meant that
the north boundary of the State of Minnesota would
have been line passing through Little Falls Long
Prairie and west The advocates this boundary ar
gued that it would give square and compact
land that it would exclude forest which would
be permanently settled and would simply roamed
by trappers miners, hunters and 1umbermen from
whom taxes could be exacted. This move however to
make the fortysxth parallel the northern boundry
rejected.
If the State Of Minnesota had so bounded itself on
the north would have lost to itself and left
future state what is of the richest of the
United States The State of Minnesota would have lost
to itself the great mining region which pays large
portion today of it's state would have lost part
of the producing section Of the Red River Valley. It
would have cut off from itself tremendous of
pine lands eliminated the ports of Lake Superior with
their possible connection with the eliminated
the many thousands of beautiful lakes which
of increasing value to the commonwealth
1t would seem that those men who proposed more
southern boundary would have had experience enough
to have rejected in their minds any proposal
