BY CoamoDoaitan News Service.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan, TO-
Mexico is making every effort to
meet its obligations to foreign gov
ernpnents and before the end of the
present month, $50, 900 cash and
scrip sufficient to cover the balance,
redeemable over q period Of twenty
years will be paid on its debts,
John Clausen, former vice president
of the Chemical National Bank Of
New York, declared today.
Clausen, known on both coasts a.
& banking expert and chairman OF
the Guatemalan group committee
for the past three years, came to
this city after an extensive spjourn
in Mexico, during which he was
vice president Of the Mexico City
Banking Corporation.
'Mexico's total foreign debt OF
half a billion dollars is owed for
the most part to American oil COM
panies which bought UP the vari'
Gus loans from European govern
ments at cut-rate prices. ODreSonIs

Clautsen claimed that the oil COM

the end in view Of using them to
pay taxes on property they con"
trolled in the Southern country.
They were purchased at q ridiculous.
ly low figure, and these cofnpanaess
ne said, would undoubtedly make
enormous profits from their gamble.
Although the finaneial situation
in the Southern republic ia strained
on the surface, fundamentally It IL
more than sound. The Mexicans
for the past ten years have gone
through q very trying period OF
unrest. The strides they have made
since Obregon took over the retna

Clausen explained the alcwnSas
with which the country IL emerging

NEW YORK, Jan. With the
exception Of mall number Of the
oil and speciality stocks, movements
in the stock market today were
again within narrow limits, and the
market was devoid Of special fea-
ture., Against the reported advance
OF the French and Belgian troops
into the Ruhr was placed the firm
trend Of British and French ex-
change as market feature, and
traders were not disposed to take
fright. at the latest develCpme
In the European situation.
The reduced buying demand from
outside sources gave the bears an
opportunity to hammer the market
in certain sections, and pressure
was exerted against General As
phalt, Retail Stores, and q few Of
the low priced railroad and oil
stocks. Retail Stores lost about
two points and General Asphalt
nearly as much. The bears en-
cOuntered more resistance with
stocks like Producers and Refinery,
American Can. II. s. Rubber, Phil
lips Petroleum, etc, which usually
snapped back after each depression

Jeffries Crouch Is
Advised For
Fn.po

While followers Of boxing do
not take seriously the report
that Jeffries may train Firpo,
old ring followers believe that
the famous Jeffries crouch
would be a big aid to the
Argentine's defence. Firpo
stands up straight and is easy
to reach. He knows nothing
about using his shoulders to
protect his jaw, and the crouch
would at least make him more
difficult to hit.
Firpo is coming here early
next month, but his sojourn in
South America has been more
of a business trip than any
thing else, and he has done
nothing to improve his boxing
or ring tactics. Unless he goes
through a period of intensive
training before next summer,
he will probably not be a much
different fighter from what he
was when he met Dempsey
last summer.

Lew Tender and Benny Leon
ard fought twice, one twelve
rounder and another fifteen-round-
er. The only damage done in
those two fiercely contested bat
ties was to a man in the third
row of the ringside seats at the
second fight, who tore his coat
on nail.
Harry Greb and Gene Tunney
performed three times for the
local customers, forty-five rounds
in all. After it was all over the
casualty list was this: One of
Greb's seconds sprained a corn
on his left foot by dropping a
water bottle on it.
The battles mentioned above
drew over half million dollars
into the box Office. Thousands
upon thousands of fans witnessed
the shows, you can't discourage
them.
The more ladylike the bouts
become and the more refined the
boxers grow the bigger crowds
collect.
Some years ago, when cham
pions more brutal than those of
today knocked their opponents
out, the crowds were much slim
mer and the purses much, lighter.

SAME OLD SKATE CHAMPS
HOLD RECORDS ONCE MORE

The same old faces won the same
old titles on the singing steel
blades during the 1923 campaign.
Charley Jewtraw, Of Lake Placid,
fastest of amateur speed skaters,
captured the international out
door championship, taking the title
from the capable hands Of Joe
Moore. The latter, however, won
international honors indoors, and
both stepped aside to make way for
Harry Kaskey in his successful
dash toward the national amateur
crown.
Arthur Staff, Of Chicago, topped
the professional field. Sherwtn
Badger Ted the way in Continental
or figure skating for men and Mrs.
Charles B. Blanchard for women.

eral recognition as the best hockey
outfit of the campaign.

COLLINS MA
OPENSEYES
At CAME

The 33d degree fans have a brand
new feminine member-Mrs. Sarah
Collins, of Kansas City, who became
an ardent admirer Of the great
American game during a recent visit
to her son, Pat Collins. catcher for
the st. Louis Browns. Until that
visit, Mrs. Collins had never seen
her son play balm fact, she had
never seen baseball game.
II often wondered what made PEG.
pie so crazy about baseball Mrs.
Collins said, when she told Of her
first game. IT couldn't understand
their talk or their enthusiasm, but I
understand both now!''
And it only required one game for
Mrs. Collins to catch the fever, she
added, and she now views with re-
greet the seasons that have passed
and the games she has missed!
II think it is a fine game and a
clean sport, ard I am prouder than
ever of my son when think of him
as one of these splendid athletes"
she declared. ut is a worthy ambi-
ton in a boy to want to be great
ball player and be acclaimed by the
crowds that go to the game. I felt
like letting the world know that 1
was not only a baseball fan but the
proud mother OF a ball player when
Pat smashed out a home run. It's a
good thing he did or he would have
heard from me!'
Mrs. Collins sad she was surprised
to see the large number Of women
the games in st. Louis, as
she had always thought that it was q
mans game and that the women took
very little interest in it.
But them days" have gore for
ever" she learned, and women now
vie with the men in roofing for the
home team and in understanding of
the game.
The Washington times., 1923-12-31

John L. Sullivan, the wonderful
Jeffries, the miraculous Fitzsim-
mons, the amazing McGovern, the
uncanny Mccoy, the unbeatable
Ketchell and the immortal Joe
Cans. The chances are that any
of this gang wouldn't last long
enough with the present crop of
boxers to give 'em a sweat up.
Who did John L. Sullivan ever
knock out that really amounted
to anything? Going around the
country knocking, out bunch of
blacksmiths, BARRIERS and bar
tenders, or knocking out pugilistic
"stars" who trained on moonshine
and sweet potatoes just like him
self. A cream puff fighter, the
great Jim Corbett, who I dare
say wouldn't last two rounds with
Kid Norfolk, almost broke his
neck trying to knock out John L.

Golfers, perhaps, may look for
ward to a better year. The hand
some Congressional Country Club
will enter the field with a spring
tournament. So will Beaver Dam,
out in the wild woods adjacent to
Lanham, Md. Holes have been
improved at practically all the
clubs in this district, especially at
Washington, Columbia, and Chevy
Chase.
For municipal players the new
course at Rock Greek Park is
steadily improving and should be
in fine fettle by next summer.
The course has been improved
fully 100 per cent. Down at
East Potomac Park the No. 2
course, opened late last season,
will be all the better for its win
ter's rest.
President Clark C. Griffith says
that he is looking forward to see
ing a strong team represent
Washington in the American
League pennant race in 1924. He
never claims any pennants-con-
trary to general understanding
but he does say that his team
will be an improvement on that
of 1928.
Sandlotters, however, are fac
ing trouble. Sufficient space for
playing is disappearing with great
rapidity in the District. Day by
day the expansion of the Capital
is wiping out playing fields. Some
were taken last summer. Others
are sure to go this coming sum-
mer. 1t is but a matter Of time
when, to play baseball or foot
ball, the sandlotters of the Dis
trict will have to make long jour
Eeys to the suburbs.
This passing of playing fields
has been bothering tennis players
for several years and will prob
ably continue until all are gone.
Clubs have been compelled to go
out of business simply because no
suitable courts could be obtained.
Much idle chatter has been
spilled about a great stadium for
the District, one capable Of seat
ing anywhere from 100000 to
$4,000. When that stadium is
finished, then We'll believe we
have it, and not till then. Mean
while, the only stadium here is
the Clark Griffith Stadium, seat
ing $4,000, which seems large
enough for some purposes.
Washington's sports outlook for
1924 might be far worse.
The Washington times., 1923-12-31

Another reason Is the exit OF
Harry Frazee as owner of the Bos-
ton Red Sox, and third is the
change OF heart experienced by Con.
ME Mack over in Philadelphia. Fra
zee was in baseball for no other
purpose than to see how much
money he could acquire by the sale
of stars to the New York Yankees.
He sold" the latter into three
straight American League pennants
and then sold his ball club.
The new owners are committed
to a policy of reconstruction, and
have nothing to sell, anyhow.
Connie Mack also is buying now,
where once he sold with carefreo
and lavish gesture. Since the
close of the season he has paid
over more money for minor Ioag-
uers than any other manager on
the big time. He never did much
business with the Yankees, but
many OF his stars ultimately
landed in New York via Boston,
the list including Dugan, Schang,
Bush and PennOcI1.
Mack's new policy has had an in
direct influence upon William Far
fetched Baker, of the Phils. Will
liam once sold everything that was
not nailed down, but has become
more cautious Of late because he
has seen that Mack's popularity
has increased in ratio to his gener-
osity.
Another and final reason for the
anti-Manhattan blockade is the fact
that all clubs now are making
money, where once only the one
two-three teams could show q re-
spectacle profit. Not only IL base
ball drawing we'll In every city, but
the great revenues derived from
Sunday baseball in New York have
been we'll distributed through the
rest of the country. A Sunday or
two in New York goes long way
toward paying a years expenses for
club like the Athletics.
Naturally. when the pocket is
full, the ear is deaf.
