PLEA FOR FARMERS
MADE TO NEWCOMER
lie Fevre Appeals to Clubmen to
Encourage Agricultural
Pursuits.

Encouragement for the farmers of
the Nation was urged by Charles w.
lie Feyre in an address before fellow
members Of the Newcomers Club at
luncheon in the La Fayette Hotel
yesterday.
Telling of the modern tendency of
the sons of farmers to leave the farms
for more lucrative and less laboriOus
work i'll the cities, Mr.. lie FeVre de-
clarCd that the day will come when a
back -tO-thef farm movement will be.
come an economic necessity.
Referring to the proposed leGisla-
tiOn for farm relief, he said the people
do not want too much class / e. l.
ton. adding. however. that something
should be done to encourage any in
duStry so vital as farming.
Several of Mr.. lie Fevre's fellow
Newcomers differed with him regard
ing the lack of prosperity among the
farmers, expressing the belief that
lack of intelligent farming has been
the principal cause of the lack of
prosperity. Samuel J. Flickinger said
the principal complainers were the
banker farmers" indicating that the
latter want special farm legislation to
increase the value Of their property.

AS soon as one of us appeared in
public" Criqui told the newspaper La
Liberte. 'yells and cries Of contempt
came from all around. Everything
was done to help the native boxer win.
1t is truly demoraliZing to fight in the
presence of a hostile crowd that stops
at nothing in venting its sarcasms"
Artakoff added this observation: ITO
count on winning victory on points

Utopia. You have to knock man
down several times to impress the
judges. and even then they are in

H0FF'S STATUS AGAIN
IS BEING CONSIDERED
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
NEW YORK, February 17.--Status
of Charley Hoff, Norwegian holder of
the world pole vault records outdoors,
is again under consideration of for
eign relations and eligibility commit.
tees of the Amateur Athletic Union.
Testimony of witnesses was taken
yesterday before the committees which
are considering Hoff's plea for rein
statement. Hoff contended that ex-
hibition of his pole vaulting skill in
stage performances did not violate
the amateur code in spirit and was
only for the purpose of paying ex-
penses incurred during a transcon-
tinental trip to sanctioned A. A. u.
meets.
His permit to compete in this coun-
try was revoked by the foreign rela-
tions committee last May after his re-
fusal to appear in a track meet in San
Francisco. He later filed suit for
damages against the athletic union,
which was settled out of court.
During the 1926 season Hoff frac
tured the world indoor record IL times,
finally clearing the bar at 13 feet 84
inches in Chicago. The marks were
tabled by the union after his disbar-
ment. AT the New York \. G. games
this week Cabin Carr of Yale set a
new record of 13 feet 9A inches.
Polling of telegraphic vote. due to
failure of Southern Middle and Far
Western members of the committees
to attend the sessions, will prevent an
nouncement Of a decision for some
time. Copies of the testimony will be
mailed to absent members.

| Friday night for the right to step

battle for the world heavyweight
title. It will be by all odds the
greatest ring battle of the year thus
far and interest in the combat IS
intense.
Delaney, with his superior clever
ness and one-punch knockout featS,
Is getting the major share of atten-
ton. Maloney, with his willingness,
a 25-pound handicap and his bull
like rushes, is not being neglected by
those who make 1t q practice to
back up their opinion with coin.
It must be admitted that Delaney
has not done much of anything since
his hectic engagement with Paul
Berlenbach last Summer. He stopped
the Jamaica Kid In four rounds and
put the kibosh on Bud German in
two. But In each instance the referee
had to stop the fight. There were
no Enockouts.
Nlaloney has had five fights since he
came back under new manager.
Stopping the giant Arthur de Kuh
and beating Franz Deiner and Harry
Person stand out as the best. Some
will say that Maloney should have
stopped both Deiner and Person. He
their jaws to turn the trick. But Jim
points to the fact that neither man
has yet been stopped in engagements
on this side Of the water.
He beat both men handily and
proved he could go the distance at an
even pace and had Person on the
verge Of exhaustion. This should be
enough to establish his right to a
fight with Tunney.
Maloney comes in winging away
with both hands. Of late he has
shown a tantalizing left hand. and
any one with q good left hand figures
to bother Delaney On the other
hand, any one coming into Delaney
offers fair target for his deadening
right. Jim can stand up under sew.
eral right handlers to the heart and
jaw. and he certainly figures to win.
Inactiveness May Hurt.
With due respect to the admirers of
the Bridgeport sharpshoOter, who fig
ure him to win over any man in the
world, it must be said that Jack GER
tainly could have helped his chances
with a couple of good fights under his
belt. He shapes up as one of the
great fighting men of the day, but
what he will do after his long lay.of
is a question. A good fighting man
requires plenty of work at his trade,
and this certainly holds good with
Delaney. Jack has been under cover
in his jaunts during the Winter. He
may have fooled the wise ones by in.
dulging in spirited workouts.
The easiest way to pick the winner
of this fight Is to toss up coin and
let it go at that.
