Mike Helped Tom.

TTOWEVER, Mike undoubted-
n ly helped Tom. He taught
~ the younger brother all
his old ring craft. He undoubted-
ly will be a big factor in Toms
training for the Greb fight, the
most important Of Toms career.
The st. Paul fighter has gone
into training in st. Paul. He dis.
likes being away from home and
hurries there Immediately after an
outside engagement. He is mar
ried, has two children and wants
to be with them all he can. Tom
would not agree to more than q
weeks training in New York.
Harry Greb will start light
training in his home town. Pitts
burgh. He will arrive in New
York ten days before the fight and
will do some of his work in Man
ME Seaman's gymnasium. His
manager, George Engel, is trying
to get Charley Weinert. the New
ark heavyweight. to work with
Greb.
Engel was around Madison
Square Garden yesterday with a
pocketful of written pleas from
Pittsburgh for tickets to the fight.
From what George says, Greb's
home city is all heated up with
excitement and big delegation Of
ringworms will come on from there
several days before the battle.
Furthermore, Engel claims the
boys are coming well bank-rolled
to bet on "The Flying Dutchman."

Along somewhat similar lines II II
noted that the Navy Is somewhat
rsficsnt about scheduling Catholic

the Brooklanders were defeated.

mated that the Navy was not salts

Columbia, Princeton and Penn

In the country, but Tom Is q pos
sibility for the biggest title Of
them all.
1t has been only in the past cou-
pie Of years that Tom has blossom
ed out to such an extent that Mike
is now merely Toms brother. The
situation that existed in Mikes
heyday Is just reversed. Tom is
the star Of the family, and at his
best, while Mix is on the old slide
downward.
And students of boxing think
that Tom is better fighter than
Mike ever was. Tom has absorbed
something Of his brothers style,
but he is a better puncher than
Mike. Had Tom not been Mikes
brother it is conceivable that in his
early twenties Tom would have
achieved the fame he now enjoys.

that he took this precaution, for

For SEVERAL years Tom was
merely Mikes brother. He was
obscured by the fistic glory that
was Mikes. The latter was such
a good fighter that most persons
seemed TO think it was impossible
for one family to produce two great
ringsters.
Today, however, Tom has gone
as far as Mike ever went In his
profession, and has the chance OF
going much further. Mike was at
various times In his career a well

Tom Jolts Mike.

Tom Joits Mike.
ToM was not a bad boy-oh,
no, indeed - perish the
thought, but was a special
protege Of Father Dunphy's. The
priest taught him q lot about box
ing, and they used to have some
smoking tits in the gym.
Mike came home from one Of his
pugilistic sorties, and eventually
asked Tom to join him in a little
scuffle. Whereupon, Thomas tore
into his celebrated brother, rip
smack, and all that sort of thing,
with such animation that Mike was
amazed.
Tom nailed Mike with a right
hand on the chin that dizzied
Michael. Tom pummeled Mike
around the body until Mike was
covering and holding. When the
bout was over, Mike took off his
gloves, looked at his kid brother in
establishment, and said:
"Say, you've got to take up fight
ing. You're pretty good"
Tom was then only eighteen
years old, but Mike took him in
hand from that day and for two
years they boxed together every
day. Then Thomas began picking
up matches on his own account.
Today the man who is to fight
Harry Greb at Madison Square
Garden on March 13 is considered
one of the foremost heavyweights
In the country and among the
white men the most formidable

At this time Tom was attending
the academic department Of st.
Thomas College in st. Paul, and
there he made the acquaintance Of
Father Dunphy, who not only took
a deep interest in boxing, but was
himself something Of a boxer.

Bud Selection for
Improving Hawaiian
Pines is Advised

(By A. d. Shamel in Extension Letter.,
In the first place we are dealing
with only one variety, the Smooth
cayenne. In the second place, we
are studying plants grown only from
yegetative plant materials. In some
fields the plants may be grown from
suckers, in others from slips, in others
from crowns, in others from ration
crops with one OF more stages of ra-
looming. 1t would seem logical to be-
gin this bud selection work if posi-
BILE in plant fields, and, wherever
practicable, in fields where the plants
have been grown exclusively from
slips, or from crowns or from suckers,
as the case may be. The idea is to
get away from the effect which the
kind of plant material may have upon
plant development, although l am not
certain as to the importance of this
factor in the case of the pineapple.
Developing Standards
Standards of perfection should be
developed in order to make intelligent
parent plant selections for progeny
trials. The and others having
well defined ideas as to the require
ments for desirable fruits should be
called upon for help in establishing
these standards. With regard to the
fruit characteristics, the standards of

Statue to Dewey is
Waiting Upon Funds

MANILA, P. l., April 15-(Associat-
ed Press MISREPRESENTATION of the
proposed monument to Admiral
George Dewey on the shore of Manila
bay must wait until the money is ap-
propriated by the Philippine legisla-
ture. Manuel L. Quezon, president of
the Philippine senate, who was APP
pointed chairman of the Dewey men,
orial committee by former governor
general, Francis Burton Harrison, ask
ed governor general, Leonard Wood,
4 authorize the release of funds part
ly to owe the expense of starting
work on the monument, but Governor
General Wood replied that no money
for this purpose IA be made available
at this time, owing to the financial
condition of the government.
The proposed monument is TO cost
5000, 900, one half to be provided by
the Philippine government and the
other half by the United States gov
eminent. The last Legislature failed
to make an appropriation for the pur-
pose, work on the monument, there
fore, can not be started until funds
are provided by that body. Governor
General Wood said while he was in
entire sympathy with the movement
there was no way of providing the
money at this time.
The site selected for the monument
is the old Spanish Fort, San Antonio
Abad, not far from the spot where
Dewey sunk the Spanish fleet on May
first, 1898.

Russian Communist
Party Now Becomes
Most Exclusive Body

MOSCOW, April 22-(Associated
Press Mail)-The Communist party
the proletarian obligarchy which con-
trolls the Russian Soviet government
is becoming more and more a closed
corporation, as difficult of entrance as
the most exclusive American club, or
the higher degrees OF the most secret
lodges.
The party was reduced last year to
about 100000 members by a rigid COM
bling out process under which nearly
10000 persons were expelled for vari-
Gus reasons. New rules for admission
of new members to the party, just
adopted by the 18th All-Russian Com
munist Congress, make it exceedingly
difficult for any persons, eve the
working men themselves to enter it.
Three categories of candidates al e
provided . The first including actual
workers and Red army soldiers who
are of "workmen's origin" may enter
the party by decision of local com
mittees upon the recommendation of
three members of three years party
experience, but must serve a period
of six months probation before being
allowed to participate actively in party
affairs.
h candidates from the second
category, peasants and small shop OF
home workers who do o themselves
exploit the labor of others. are q limit.
ted on the same general conditions,
providing the district party commit.
tees approve of them and they serve
n year of probation.
The third category, including other
persons, even those who have previous
ly been members of other parties
must receive the recommendation OF
five members of five years standing
be approved by the district commit
tees, and serve two years probation
AS all of the very high posts in the
Russian government are held by Com
munists and most of the more import
ant subordinate positions are given
only to party men, the provisions Of
this last category would serve to hal
other persons, even those desiring
now to enter the party, from participa
ton in the upper circles of the govern
ment.
Persons joining the Communists
Party must bind themselves to observe
strict discipline and to model tlleil
personal lives along CommunistiC
idealistic principles. They must fore
swear religion, promise not to drinl
in public places and to be extremely
moderate in consumption of any in
~toxicants anywhere. They are not tt
amass wealth, nor to exploit the labor
of others.

perfection might include a considera-
lion of (1) size. (2) weight, (3) shape,
C) canning quality, (5) crown, (6)
maturity, % color, or other recogniz-
able characteristics. Perhaps wax or
wooden models of the ideal fruit which
can be easily carried in the field,
would be of considerable assistance
for comparison with the fruits observ-
ed in the field.
When fruits are found which are
satisfactory, the plants bearing them
should be observed for important
growth, (2) number of slips, (3) num-
Der of suckers, (4) vigor of growth,
(5) freedom from disease, and per-
haps other important considerations.
Even if the fruit is nearly perfect, if
there are no slips or suckers or an
insufficient number of either, the
plant would be undesirable for COM
mercial purposes as a parent plant for
propagation.
Care Of Progenies
When satisfactory fruits and plants
are discovered, these plants should be
marked as parent plants for progeny
trials. A red cloth streamer tied to
such plants will serve to identify them
for this purpose. When the slips are
ready to be taken from the plants for
propagation they can be secured by
placing all of the slips from a single
plant in a separate bag. 1t is import
ant to keep the slips from each sell
ected parent plant separate. Two or
three slips from each selected plant
is a minimum number, and the more
slips available on each plant the more
reliable and valuable the progeny test
