FORD MOTORS SUED
FOR USE OF IDEA
{. c. Moore Charges CON-
pany Took Weekly Payment
Plan From Him.
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, September 5.-Edward
G. Moore today filed suit against the
Ford Motor Company, alleging that 1t
was deliberately and consciously in
fringing and unlawfully converting to
its own use," his weekly payment plan
for purchasing automobiles.
Moore alleged that the Ford COM
pany used his plan without authori-
zation from him and asked for an in
junction to cease the unauthorized use
of the scheme, as well as a full ac-
counting of all profits received.
Says He Revealed Plan.
The complaint alleges that Moore
asked for an interview with Mr.. Ford
for the purpose of revealing to him
the Moore plan in detail. Moore
stated he received a letter from the
Ford Motor Company's sales depart
ment October Is, 1922, asking him to
detail his plan and promising to give
the matter careful attention. Moore
said he gave the details of his plan
in a letter dated October %, 1922.
The complaint says that in a, letter
dated October 81, 1922, the sales de-
partment of the company wrote
Moore that I'VE would not be inter
ested in the proposition, at least not
at the present time"
The complaint charges that the
company, having obtained possession
of the plan, without acquiring any
rights to it or to copy or to use it,
thereafter unlawfully and without the
consent or authority of plaintiff, and
without any payment to the plaintiff
thereof" appropriated the plan and
used it in its business.
Claims Ford Name Used.
The plan was advertised through
out the world as the Ford plan" or
the Ford weekly purchase plan" the
complaint sets forth, and charges that
such advertisements were 'piratical
publications to the public of the plain
tiff's plan"
Moore's complaint said that when
he learned of the Ford plan he tele-
graphed Edsel Ford. the manufac-
turer's son, and a motor company,
expressing his surprise and also
wrote a letter of protest. In the sub
sequent correspondence, according TO
the complaint, w. A. Ryan, sales
manager for the Ford company. wrote
Moore a letter stating that I'VE are
unable to locate your letter outlining
the plan which we understand was re-
turned to you without a copy being
made" Mr.. Ryan said in his letter
that Moore's plan was not discussed
with him.

Cannon announced Friday that there

The Eagle mentor has not yet Sc

DeForest Picks
Delaney to Win
By JIMMY DE FOREST

NEW YORK. Dec. 11.-Jaek
Delaney viii beat Paul Berlenbach
in their battle in Madison Square
Garden tonight.
The most surprising thing about
This fight is that it is likely TO 70
the limit. The reason il is surpris-
ing is because / know that everybody
expects a knockout.
Jack Delaney is supremely confident
that he will knock out Paul Berlen-
bach.
Both men are in excellent condi-
ton-in fact, they are the best con-
ditioned athletes that / have seen in
the ring this year.
NV reason for selecting Delaney TO
win u that he has the boxing ability
and better fighting head than Paul.
BE has terrific punch and he has
the edge on Berlenbaeh because he
knocked him out before. The old
Indian sign may exert its baleful in
fiuence this evening.
IL Berlenbach follows out his plan
of battle the fight is likely TO 20 the
limit. IL, however. he forgets and
begins rushing in. Delaney is likely
70 cop him. Provided Berlenbach does
this, then believe that Delaney will
win BY n knockout.

and generally this is a good practice
when it is not necessary to make the
ball stop dead. Also you hit a green
occasionally with slope. The best way
to get the pin in such circumstances
il to hit the near corner of the green
above the pin and roll down-a hook
il the pin is to the left, a fsde-away
il it is to the right. The slightest
roll of the forearms, over or under,
as the ball is hit will yield this effect
near the end of the balls flight.

NEW YORK, Dec. ia gather
ing of 10000 people. paying in the
neighborhood Of 100000 for the priv
ilege, will gaze on Tex Richards
first big fistic spectacle in his new
Madison Square Garden tonight.
They are sure to see some realistic
fireworks when Jack Delaney, the
French-Canadian from Bridgeport, and
Paul Berlcnbach. the Astoria south
paw, start fighting for the light
heavyweight championship of the
world that Berlenbach won from
Michael McTigue.
1t will be the biggest and richest
crowd that ever saw big indoor
fight in America. Ii will far eclipse
the assemblages that saw Dempsey
and Brennan. Willard and Moran and
Leonard and Mitchell in the old Gar
den.
GREAT PUNCHES.
Berlenbach and Delaney are great
punchers who hit best from opposite
sides, Bcrlenbach being q lefthand
demon and Delaney the possessor of as
pretty a right-hand Mary Ann as you
ever looked Mt.
It's a fight for a title scheduled
for fifteen rounds that does not fig
ure TO last over seven. no matter
which man wins. While Berlenbach
is the favorite because the bigger
man was a dandy performer in recent
starts. it must be remembered that
Delaney has the psychological edge
of once having knocked out Paul. BE
spread the Astoria man in the rosin
for the full count in the fourth round
of their only previous meeting.
Berlenbach was the betting favorite
all over Greater New York this morn
ing. The prevailing odds were Z and
g to and there was much money
being risked.
MAKE 155 POUNDS.
Berlenbach and Delaney meet at the
boxing commissions office at 2
O'Clock. They are TO make 175
pounds or under to put Berlenbach's
title Of stake. That notch never
bothered either man.
The matches ahead Of the main
event are none too hot. George Cook
and King Solomon will meet in a
heavyweight semi-final of ten rounds.
Pat Mccarthy and Alex Rely, the
colored man from Peru, are slated
for six rounds, Andy Palmer and
Harold Mays for four, and Mike
Reilly and George Jackson for four.
