FARM BUREAU ASKS
 INCREASE IN LOANS

Washington. November 6.-(Spe- cial.)-The national board of farm organizations recommends today to the Secretary of the Treasury an in- crease from s10,oo0 to s25ooo of the maximum loan under the federal farm loan act. and. secondly, the early sale of farm loan bonds now held by the treasury in order that the stockholders of the 12 federal land banks may secure voice in their management as provided m t t original act"
 The recommendation were m: de in accordance with the resolutions adopted in the semi-annual confer ence of the national board of farm organizations, and are said to repre- sent the unanimous conclusion of American farmers that by such meth ods their financial plight could be improved
 The increase in the maximum limit of loans to cooperative borrowers from s10,000 to s25.o00 was urged. it was explained, fin order to extend the borrowing power of the farmers and to provide for those who now, because of the present limit, have to depend on the non- GO operative or private money lending agencies"
 If Secretary Mellon requests Con- gress to act on the recommendations, the action will be favorable, it is definitely known.

GEOGRAPHICAL ZONES
 FOR DAVIS CUP PLAY

New York, November 6.-The pro- posal to divide competition for the Davis cup into two geographical zones, American and European, will be acted upon at an international tennis conference to be held in Lon don December 20, it was announced tonight.
 The conference was called by the United States Lawn Tennis fedora tion to consider general revision of Davis cup regulations. It will be followed by a second conference, un- der the auspices of the International Lawn Tennis federation to discuss playing rules and adopt new inter- national code.
 At least 10 nations will be repre- scented at the conferences which are expected to have the most far reach ing effect upon tennis of any ever held.
 The proposal to create two Davis cup zones is an outgrowth of dis cussion at meeting in London last summer designed to meet the en- larging scope of the contest. Under the plan each nation in forwarding it's challenge would state whether it desired to compete in the Ameri- can or European group. Separate draws would be made, the winners of the sectional play to meet for the right to challenge the nation holding the trophy.

ITS KEN SCOTT RESIGNS AZ ALABAMA SPORTS
POOR HEALTH CAUSES SCOTTS RESIGNATION

 Has Three Offers
 Just what the little Clevelander will do after his departure from the university is a matter of speculation. He has two eastern offers and one from a western university, but he has not stated what he will do next year. It is understood that each of his three offers calls for an increase over the salary he has received an- nually as head university coach.
 It was rather widely rumored that Glenn Kf1linger, former Penn State star, would probably be Scotts suc- cessor al the university, but Hugo Friedman's statement today that the illustrious Glenn would not get the post has put at rest these rumors. Alumni and university officials ~ould give no information regarding pos s:ble successor for Scott today.

BILL TILDEN TO LOSE
 TIP OF ONE FINGER


 Philadelphia, November 6.-Wil- liam T. Tilden, II, national tennis champion, will lose the end of the middle finger of his right hand as the result of blood poison which fol- lowed a slight cut from a wire back stop received while he way playing at Bridgeton, N. J., October IA. The loss is unlikely to handicap his play ing.
 Dr. William B. Swartley, surgeon at the Germantown hospital, where Tilden has been for about two weeks. said today that it was impossible to save the finger down to the first joint, but that he hoped the re- mainder would heal successfully.
 The tip and nail already has been removed but the other portion of the first joint is gangrenous. Dr. Swart- ley said he did not expect the infec- tion to pass the first joint and that the remainder of the finger ought not to be stiff if it heals without further complications.

University, November 6.-(Special) Ken c. Scott. little football strate- gist who has been in charge of Uni- versity of Alabama athletics for the past two years, has decided to sever his connections with the university, and has turned in his resignation, to take effect at the close of the present season.
 Scott turned in his resignation on October 6, before the Oglethorpe game, but prominent alumni per suaded him to remain in charge of university athletics until the close of the present season. Although his physicians advised his retirement at once, Scott gamely agreed to stick by his guns until after Thanksgiv- ing.
 Poor Health
 The popular university mentor gave as his reason for resigning his health, which has been in poor con- dition for the past year. The Dixie climate doesn't seem to agree with Scott, and physicians advised his re- turn to the north. In fact, Scott was in such poor health before the Philadelphia invasion, he was forced to remain in bed several days betore the Pennsylvania game. The poor health of the little Clevelander has long been source of worry to his many friends at the university, and announcement of his resignation came as no surprise to those closely connected with the situation.
 During the four years he has been in charge of football at the univer- sity, Scott has given Alabama some of her greatest teams. In 1919 the Crimson machine was considered to have as strong a claim to the Dixie title as any team in the south, while all of Scott's elevens have run up scoring records.
 Scott's Record
 Previous to Scott's arrival at the university, 2S years of football had resulted in winning percentage of .5SO for Alabama. During the four years he has been In charge. Scott's s teams have compiled a winning per centage of .755s His teams have scored 1903 points. against the 2,461 scored by Crimson teams during the 2S years previous to Scott's time at Alabama.

 Smiles and Lacey Draw
 In 8 bout not a bit less thrilling than the most sensational they have ever put up. Homer Smiles and Tom Lacey staged another draw at the E. A. c. last night. Each secured one fall in their 10-round battle.
 Lacey displayed wonderful science last night, while Smiles ability to break away from holds and his splendid strength enabled him to get
 draw with his willy young foe.
 In the fifth round Lacey threw smiles with terrible arm lock and neck scissors, q hold that doled out much punishment. Smiles twisted and squirmed, but Lacey had the lock on and the key thrown away, and the fall was his when Smiles. shoulders were pinned down.
 From then on Smiles fought to weaken his opponent. Arm throws, with one unbreakable head lock, which the gong prevented from de- veloping into a fall, enabled Smiles to get Lacey dizzy, and then, in the ninth round, he clamped on an air tight head lock and Lacey's should CTS went flat.
 It was a splendid match and was just about as fast and thrilling as 1t Is possible for mat bout to be.
 Sailor Simpson Wins
 In the second round of his sched- uled 10-round bout with Bert Green, Sailor scored an impressive knock out last night. The veteran battler landed crashing right flush on Greens chin. near the middle of the round, and Green went down and was counted out.
 Simpson showed all his old time slugging ability, while Green got along fairly well, except for that one moment his vigilence relaxed and he allowed Simpson to slip the sleep producer over.
 Saab Beats Kelly
 For the second time Bogie Saab last night defeated Young Battling Keely, when he outpointed the speedy young battler in four round bout Bogies experience, and his hard right swing, accounted for his victory over Kelly. The latter is a willing mixer, but Saab seems bit out of his class, and won easily last night.
 Watts and Simmons wrested to a draw in the curtain raiser. In the third round Simmons threw his op- ponent with body hold. while in the fourth Watts made his foe "calf rope" with body scissors that was a corker.
 Morris Finefeld refereed the wrest- ling bouts last night while Dave Evans handled the boxing events. A fairly good crowd was in attendance at the B. A. c. athletic show last night.
