DELANEY To Be
/. IN SHAPE FOR
bERLENbACH
Starts Work Wednesday
and Berlenbach Is
Happy.
BY SAM HALL
BY Universal Service,

NEW YORK, Nov. 24.-Paul Ber-
lenbach, who has been putting in some
heavy training at his New Jersey
camp, was gratified to learn today
that his rival of December IL in new
Madison Square Garden, Jack De-
laAey, will be in condition for the
bout.
Now that Paul is convinced that
Delaney is going to be ready for the
test, he is happier athlete. Match
maker jess Mcmahon of the garden
today informed Berlenbach that De-
laney was in a very healthy state
after weeks in the mountains and that
his Bridgeport training camp would
buzz with activity after Wednesday.
That pleased Paul particularly, be-
cause Delaney once flattened him
quickly and rudely, and the Astoria
assassin is keen for some revenge.
A match has just been closed that
will cause much excitement on the
Pacific coast. 1t will bring together
Bud Taylor, the Terre Houte redhead
and Jimmie McLarnin, the Oakland
sensation who knocked out Jackie
Fields, former Olympic champion, IN
couple of rounds the other night.
Jack Doyle has closed the match for
his Vernon, Cal, arena and the date
is December s. The match is par
ticularly good out there because Tay-
lor is the only lad who holds a deci-
sion over McLarnin and the majority
Of boxing fans in California believe
that McLarnin now has the expert
ence with which to reverse the YER
dict.
Doyle. to get the match, guaranteed
each fighter $4,000.
The New Jersey boxing commission,
through chief inspector William Van
Buskirk, has examined Mickey Walk
err and Sailor Friedman, the princi-
pals in Wednesdays welterweight
championship fight at Newark, and
pronounced the athletes fit to fight
their prettiest.
Compelling the fighters to do the
welterweight lint of 147 pounds
probably has helped to put them in
fancy trim.

SAYS FLIGHT CAN
 BE MADE IN DARK

Extracts from dispatch dated February End. from the Fairbanks News-Miner to the Nugget, state that the airplane flight is prepared for and practical in the minds of flyers.
 The extracts follow: Don't think of high temperatures in Nome being fine for flying as tenn perature cuts no difference. The colder it is the easier they fly and 1t is better flying at night than in daylight. The serum will be in Ne mana the middle of the week and it would be good plan to take part of the shipment on first flight and there would be plenty of time to return for the following shipments and also fly with them. There are three airplanes and plenty of flyers and serum. All we need is the orders to go. Oar ling will fly with Lieut.. Mackie or Farnsworth, and O'Brien is waiting at Ruby also ready to help. There isn't an assured dollar behind this Fairbanks-Nome flight, but what is that among friends If We get the word that we go and the start is not arranged for Fairbanks. the plane will gladly risk its shoot at tempting to land at Dunbars where there is no field. pick up the serum and flying at night, have the serum in Nome the next morning."

FIELDS Of CORN
MAY SUPPLY
RUBBER
American Chemists Again
Interested in Making
Synthetic Product.
BY the Associated Press.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6. = DIR.
James +. Norris. president of the
American Chemical Society. in session
here, sees in the corn fields Of Kansas
possible solution of the disturbing
situation recently created by sly
rocketing rubber prices.
II continued high prices force tire
manufacturers TO appeal to the chem
list. DR.. Norris said yesterday, it is
entirely possible that method of
manufacturing synthetic rubber from
corn and wheat derivatives may be
developed and the rubber plantation
supplanted in some measure at least
by the Middle-Western American
farm.
Several years ago." he explained.
"the question of the synthetisis al
rubber became vital. and leading chem
lists of the world began a study OF
its manufacture.
Meanwhile. a great increase in
rubber plantation production caused
the price TO fall, and chemical re.
search was abandoned.
"Now, however. the chemist again
is entering the field, and it is among
the possibilities that our research men
will develop a valuable commercial
rubber from acetone, from which the
Germans made rubber during the war
"Acetone is a by-product of butyi-
alcohol and butyl-alcohol is produced
from grain. ....
"In other words. our automobile
tires may yet be made from Kansas
corn"
DR.. Norris also pointed out that
crude petroleum might be used as the
base of synthetic rubber. in which case
the corn and wheat growers Of the
Middlcwest will have to compete with
the oil companies.
