NEED FAITH AND CONFIDENCE
Positions Open for Newly Trained
Victims of World War Before
They Are Ready.

That the rehabilitated World war
veterans success in life depends
absolutely upon his faith in himself,
is the assertion of Maj. w. f. Lent,
chief of the employment service Of
the United States veterans bureau
which has in charge the proper train
ing of thousands of disabled service
men.
Major Lent, in speaking before the
headquarters staff of the American
Legion In Indianapolis, said that the
Legion and the Legion Auxiliary had
as one of their greatest obligations
the task of instilling into the hearts
Of service men an absolute faith and
confidence in themselves and their
abilities to cope with life's problems.
He said that the government is to
have place for every veteran three
or four months before the veteran
Is ready to take it. 1--WE do not
guarantee that man who has studied
to be factory superintendent will
be placed In that position" the major
explained, "but he will be placed In
the path so that he can obtain such
position through his own initiative
and ability.
I'VE want employers to understand,
too, that these men are no longer
cripples. They may be physically
crippled, but not industrially or vo-
cationally. When we put a man
with one arm into a job, he is as well
able, and perhaps more so, to do that
particular work as is the man with
two arms"

WARNS AGAINST
 COMMERCIALISM

Following close on the heels of Dr. LowelPs rap at college football, R. Tait Mckenzie, University of Penn sylvania professor, today comes to the front and warns against commer- ciaism in college sports, which he says, is endangering athletics.
 Athletic activity Is the best sub stitute for war, and every virile ma ton must have one or the other,' pr. Mckenzie said, ''but the encroach- ments of commercialization have en- dangered intercollegiate athletics. At this time over enthusiastic alumni of institution after institution are com peting for the services of coaches to turn out winning teams at salaries that surpasS the salary of the college president. This is especially true in the West.
 Their memory does not go back few years to the time when the rank ness of the abuses they are thus fos tering caused the total abolition of intercollegiate contests in more than one prominent college and menaced the very existence of football as a college game.
 ''They do not remember that the game was saved only with difficulty by the National Collegiate Association through a drastic reform in its con- duct and rules. At present moro than one college president. himself a lover of clean sport, is looking to- ward this goal"

New York. Feb. IA rush of gold seekers had nothing on the flock of lighting promoters who besieged Johnny kilbane at his hotel when the featherweight champion of the world arrived here preparatory to sailing for Ireland.
 Why, gentlemen" said the champ. Il am not here to talk fight. I came to New York to book passage Tor myself and party of friends for Europe"
 If someone had clouted each pro- moter on the head with a hammer it would have had no. more effect than the champions assertion They gaped at him, each waiting for the other to begin the questioning. They saw visions of a bankroll which would culminate with a championship bout flying past them and some for eign sportsman pulling it down. Not only this. but supposing Johnny lose his title on the other side
 VIII Visit Ireland
 kilbane relieved the situation somewhat when he explained that he was going abroad merely to visit and would not leave these United States right away.

 q shall give exhibitions of boxing in England and France, but shall not engage in a championship match That is. unless some unusual offer should be made me that could not afford to refuse"
 This last sentence caused the boys to again prick up their ears. and when the interview with Johnny was at an end they were not satisfied that the champion was going to Europe merely for a pleasure trip.
 kifbane looks in excellent condi- tion- He weighs about 130 pounds and could get down to the feather weight limit easily if he cared to train a bit He will be the second worlds champion boxer to invade Europe from this country this winter.

RICHARD MAKES
 AN EXPLANATION


 New York, Feb. Tine reason Tex R1ckard announced yesterday that he IS not contemplating staging fight between Jack Dempsey and Bill Bren- nan was because the New York State Boxing Commission had notified him it would not issue a permit for such match Richards announcement was puzzling at the time as previous ly it had been reported on good au- thority that such Q bout was planned and the formal signing of articles would take place soon-
 It was learned today that Chair man Muldoon of the Boxing Commis- sion upon hearing of the proposed match, informed Rickard 1t would not be permitted.
 'iSuch a match, in my opinion, is not justified" Muldoon stated, "Bren- nan has yet to convince boxing enthu- siasts generally that he is a fit op- ponent for Dempsey. Why does not he box Tont Gibbons, Sob Roper, Bob Martin or Fred Fulton Victories over any two of these men would qualify Brennan for 8 title bout

 Forty years ago next Tuesday, February :, (1SS2 was the year) John l..

 The battle was fought on the turf London prize rules. s2.5oo a side, and a s1,00O bet at ringside. Sullivan weighed 193 pounds, Ryan 1e5. AL though Ryan whipped Joe Goss, the D. s. champion, in 86 rounds, the bat tie lasting one hour and 28 minutes, Sullivan made short work of Ryan knocking him out in the ninth round.
 The first round lasted ten seconds, the second twenty-five seconds; third, thirty seconds; fourth, forty seconds; fifth. thirty seconds; sixth, fourteen seconds; seventh, fifteen seconds; ninth, fifty seeonds-an of the rounds being less than one minute in dura- ton
 The Sullivan-Ryan battle reated nationwide interest, and Bridgeport sports took a day off to wait for the returns All of the sporting resorts were crowded and big crowds stood in zero weather watch the ''Farmer's'' bulletins.

 In the long race Joje Ray, four times national one-nile champion, will divide the spotlight honors with Hal Cutbill, of Norwa1k, of the Boston A. A., who beat the Chicago youth last season. and who recently won the Brooklyn College 1000 from a fast lot of runners.
 Ray and Cutbill will probably go to the post even favorites and as both are noted for their sensational finish ing Sprints a great race is assured. Tom Campbell, the Yale star, who re- gently came within three-fifths of a second of the worlds record for 500 yards only week ago, will take lot of beating here.
