SCRAPS FOR NEW YORK Strib- -Berlenbach Go First Of Long Boxing
 List

NEW YORK, August .26.-The air of this metropolis will be famed to hurricane during the coming three weeks with four chaIhpionS and nanler' ous other energetic young shippers swinging their fists in a sudden storm of Queensbury quarrels. After wait ing coyly in the offing all summer in the expectation of enormous purses, the fighters apparently have decided to make all the money they can during the remaining weeks of the outdoor season.
 Wednesday evening, the ,oft-deferred fight between Willie Stribling and Paul Berlenbach will keep the bronx awake. Willie is not allowed to box more than six rounds a night in New York because he is still a young thing but notwithstanding the fact that the riot is limited to the sprint distance it probably will be the loveliest and live Hest bl0od-letting demonstration of the season. Striblings who is developing into the perfect fighter as he gains weight and experience, undoubtedly can Outbox the slugging apOstate wrestler. But Berlenbach stil has the same wal lop that lowered about 35 fighters, and the Georgia juvenile will be in danger if Berlenbach gets one home.
 The first of the group of champion ship fights comes on the night of Sep tember 2, when Abey Goldstein, who took the bantamweight title from Joe Lynch last winter, meets Tommy Ryan, of McKeesport, Pa, who whipped Gold stein twice in the past. Ryan has no great reputation but Goldstein is the least of the champions and any fairly handy young bully has a chance to drop him in the bucket.
 Two days later, the flyweight cham pionship of the world goes into action, with Pancho Villa, the Filipino, defend- ing and Frankie Genaro attacking. Genaro has whipped Villa three times and his mastery over Villa was so ap- parent on each occasion that the title is expected to pass this time. When they met before Villa did not hold the title.
 After weeks pause, the Firpo-Wills fight will be explored at Boyles clout clinic in Jersey City and before the reverberations of the flOpinpg and falling of these enormous bodies have died away, Benny Leonard will be rais- ing his fists against Mickey Walker for Mickey's welterweight title in New York.
 Jack Dempsey doesn't figure in the war-like plans of the promoters. He is welded to the art of the cinema and won't fight until next year if ever again.

 Berlenbach Ready
 Berlenbach appears to be in better condition than his opponent, but he has not been the same Berlenbach whom Jack Delaney of Bridgeport, Conn.,, knocked out at Madison Square Garden March IA.
 The match can go only six rounds owing to ruling of the state athletic commission prohibiting boxers under 21 years of age from participating in matches of greater length. Stribling is only 20 years old. Berlenbach is 24.

The purpose Of the administration to do justice to these
employees Is to be highly commended although nothing
than what might be expected It mighty seldom that an
oued employee Of the Government has an opportunity to get

their assistants such busy that they do
waste time to retraee the history Of single dismissal
Fortunately the twenty eight who handed dis
ssa papers without chance defense were able
to enlist the aid of powerful Senators and others who

the i'll will Of small chiefs above him or her and who has
been dropped from the payros fimsy pretext
another has virtually recourse no matter how great
injustice has been done.
Through personal opportunities the Government employee
thus treated may in instances appointment in

livelihood has been taken from him and he has no appeal
He must hunt employment elsewhere Too often these en-
plOyes especially in times when payros being reduced
who have faithfully served their Govern

to small retirement annues from the funds paid in by them
selves and fellow employees.
Civil service in Washington and throughout the country
less rambling disconnected affair caring for

Others however who have pets that they protect
take Of and these pets not moested It may be that
the pets have political backing and the chief subchef
knows and does not dare to act So the dismissed victims
are those without pull and along in years who
have worked for the Government long they feel that they
will be squarely treated.
The Senators and Congressman interested them
selves in the bureau Of engraving employees who Ouste

Such board would be bothered with the many

to have all this bother though than that good and
