BURMAN KING OF THE
BANTIES FOR A day.;
NOW IT'S GOLDSTEIN
Chicagoan Alibis Defeat BY
Saying Lynch's Injury
Upset Him.
By FA!RPLAY

/ Copyright, Dy Inc san Antonio Light
New York, Oct. 2O.-King for day.
That is Joe Burman. aspirant for
bantamweight boxing honors.
Rather he was king for part OF
day. Burman put on the crown
of the b3nties at o'clock Friday
afternoon after 4 bloodless victory
over Champion Joe Lynch. Abe
Goldsetin took j away from him in
somewhat more CORY struggle along
about IL o'clock Friday night.
The crown that Burman never got
settled properly on his brow was
awarded him by the New York State
Boxing Commission, so far as this
state is concerned. when Lynch dis
covered that in falling over his pet
dog in his apartment, he wrenched
his shoulder too badly 10 fight.
The matchmakers secured the town
for somebody who had not fallen over
dog and finally found Goldstein.
Goldstein did not even have dog.
But for all his lack of this appur-
tenance of champion, he proved that
he had championship class when he
got in the ring against Burman.
1t was Goldstein's fight from the
start until the eleventh roAnd when he
suffered a bad cut over the eye in n
collision of heads and was nearly
blinded. Burman took that round. but
Goldstein came back with a rush in
the twelfth and cinched his victory,
which was awarded him on points.
'Burman's alibi was that he was so
upset over the news that he was not
to ret q crack at Lynch after all the
work he had done TO make the BAN
tamweight limit. that he just could
not pull himself together for the fight
with Goldstein. He was about TO
make rash statement about quitting
the game for good when Nat, Lewis,
his manager. headed him off.
The new champion had signed for
a fight ct the Pioneer A. c.. here Oc-
tober 80. with Harold Smith, of Chi
cagO, before he was sent in to sub.
stitute for Lynch. As matters now
stand. the Pioneer Club has a cham
pionsbip bout on its hands that it
never expected.
No small intere.t has been stirred
in these parts by the news that Dave
Shade. former welterW eight champion
in New York state. has been matched
for fifteen-round bout with Billy
Wells. the English titleholder. The
clash will occur ,ext Friday night at
Madison Square Garden. Shade came
into his title in this state when Mckee
Walker refused 20 fight him to n de
cision. Jimmy Jones. who took the
title away from him. recently was SUI
pended for getting into the ring with
Walker at Newark and now Shade is
trying to coax the state commission
to give the title back to him. II he
wins next Friday night, the conf
mission may heed his plea.
News from Chicago that Il. p. John
son had placed a ban on boxing in
American ] eague baseball parks does
not mean the end of ball lot boxing
before LUCE crowds in New York.
President Heydler of the National
League said the subpject had not even
been discussed among the owners of
the older circuit.

Sheen and Wool Growers Meet

Sheep and Wool Growers Meet
The Morgan County Sheep and
Wool Growers association held a
very enthusiastic meeting in McCon-
nelsville, Wednesday afternoon. Dec.
-. The meeting was for the cleo
tion of officers and director of the
Ohio Sheep and Wool Growers asso-
citation. J. F. Walker. of Gambler,
Ohio Sec'y and field man of the as
sociation, was. the principal speakel.
He addressed the crowd in the IA
miiiar walker way" Almost the
entire meeting was gwen over 10
him. Most OF his talk was on the
present wool market situation and
outlook. the Ohio wool pool, the new
contract gotten up under the new
cooperative marketing law, some
problems which are encountered in
cooperative wool mark citing In OhIu,
the proposed Truth in Fabrics"
bill, and the relation and assistance
of the Ohio farm bureau federation
to the State Sheep & Wool Growers
association. At the end of his talk.
Mr. Walker discussed large num-
her Of very important questions put
to him by highly interested Morgan
county sheep farmers. The high
points of some Of his remarks We're
as follows:
The present wool market is in a
very peculiar but not a disadvan-
tageous position. There is a greater
tendency on the part Of American
people AT present to mend "a
punctucd tire" than 'punctured at
tire" Relative 10 other times. peo-

bile equipment and repairs than for

new spring clothing are noticed in
the markets"
Australia has wool mark citing
organization composed cf $50 of
the Australian wool growers. They
place their woods on the markets,
British markets for the most part,
and specify that their woods will
bring SO much per pound. It brings
the price or the wool buyer goes
without the product AS his inter
est demands the wool, he pays the
price. "Australian woods are lower
in quality than Ohio wools. What
might we do with our high qualified
woods produced here in Ohio?'
"A common but not serious mar
keting problem with which the Ohio
Sheep d Wool Growers association
often meets, is the jumping of prices
Of Independent buyers. They ge4.-
orally so into a community and Offer
fabulous price for a prominent
and influential sheepmans clip. The
news spreads and many nearby
sheepmen want to sell locally in
stead of pooling their wool, claiming 6
that the wool will not guarantee
such prices. Such actions on the
pert of local buyers sometimes make
trouble in maintaining the morale of
consignors in the wool pool"
'Some of the old line" buyers of
wool have been hit this year. They
have not been able to move their
woods as easily and cheaply as tire
force Of the wool warehouse. Some
have wanted to market their hold
ines through the association. One
fellow in particular, wanted to sell
through the association, as the in
terest on his wool was costing him
81 per day. The farmers who are
depending Oh him to take their clip
next year will probably get stun@.
He Will not pay so near Boston
prices if he buys any wool at all.
After Mr.. Walkers talk, the
members present showed some real
spirit. enthusiasm and Judgment in
the manner in which they elected
officers. The members Of the last
