Take Over Duties in His House
hold in Washington.

New York, March 81 Lr-Prcsi-
dent Colidge today apparently was
wrestling with 4 solution fer the
servant problem"
The servant shortage was squarcIv
put up to the president by Mrs.
Louis A. Jeffer. Of Cedarhurst. Long
Island. who in letter described
the situation as acute" and threat
ening the destruction OF real home
life and atmosphere"
That the president is showing
some interest in the problem was
assumed from a reply the Long Is
land matron received from Evcrrt
sanders, secretary to the president,
who assured Mrs. Jaffer that the
matter would be brought 10 the
presidents attention.
Mrs. Jaifcr urges amendment "of
the immigration law or the con-
tract labor law, or both such laws.
that would at the earliest possible
moment permit healthy women Of
the white race who are suitable for
or trained In domestic service to i'm
migrate into this country for a
number of years ut least"
Mrs. Jaffer also submitted hr~
problem to various senators ami
representatives but so far has lc-
ccived mostly diplomatic bU, non
comnital replies.

ter, n. Y, Probably Will Lose

tuition OF motor coaches for trolley
cars throughout the section of south
ern Connecticut and Westchester

tiations initiated nearly a year ago

cal Chamber OF Commerce.

W0MEN'S GOLF MATCHES
State Association Decides to Adopt
North and South Section Tourna-
mcntS This Season.

Waterbury, Conn. March 81 R)-
Women golfers of Connecticut as
members OF the Connecticut Wo-
mans Golf association will try out
the coming season the plan OF hav-
ing clubs in north and south sections
TO settle ntra-state team COMPETE
tons. This innovation, which the
mems golf clubs have not yet un-
dertaken, will meet the problem of
overcrowdcd courses on tournament
days by eliminating team matches.
The plan has not yet been adopted
by the men although the idea had
been advanced.
The woman's annual state champ
lonshlp matches have been set for
Brooklyn club at Bridgeport, May 81
to June 4, and six one day open
tournaments We're fixed. The sections
will hold an intra state champion
ship meet after each section has de-
termined its team and the state win
ner may be expected to be an en-
trant in the Interstate team match

SHADE grown AREA
TO BE INCREASED
Tobacco Men to Plant About
$500 Acres
Hartford March 81 Pl-Plantings

Hartford March 81 P,-Plantings
CT shade-grown tobacco in the Con-
necticut valley for 1927 will be
about $500 acres. it was said today.
This will be an increase of about
1000 acres over last year Possibly
the acreage viii go to 5000 this
year, depending somewhat on how
much firms from outside the state
raise in Connecticut.
There have been extensive sales
of the 1926 shade-grown tobacco
and very little is now on the market.
Some Of the 1926 broadleaf is UNI
sold.
With the Connecticut Valley To-
hacco association selling direct to
leaf dealers and Independents sell
ling in the same way. nearly all the
hroadleaf has been sold and large
part OF that sold delivered. Havana
seed, grown in 1926, which is nearly
all warehouse sorted. is all sorted
and a great proportion Of ii in cas-
cS.
Broadleaf is also being packed
rapidly.
With the second five-year contract
of the association members cam
celled, the question of u reorsanized
association with very much diff
fcrent form OF contract or the for
nation OF a local association, espe-
cially in the towns with members
owned warehouses, is a proposition
not yet formally considered by the
members at large.
The first and second districts
which comprise Glastonbury Crom-
we'll. East Haddam. Middletown.
Portland. Rocky Hill and the lower
part OF East Hartford, will have a
union meeting at Odd Fellows hall,
Glastonbury, Monday evening, April
II to talk over the formation OF a
local association and consider the
future OF the Glastonbury warehouse.
1t is expected Stanton f. Brown OF
Windsor, who has had experience
with local associations, will address
the meeting
Members of the association are not
anticipating the sale OF the remain
der Of the 1928. 1924 and 1925 crops
under control of the management,
before July, and probably not then.
The bylaws of the association
provide for an annual election OF di-
rectors by the members in June. and
the annual election of the officers
and three directors large within
5 days after the election of direct
ors. The members. generally. are
wondering what the present manage
ment will do about an election of di-
rectors, and whether it will plan to
hold over until the tobacco is all sold
and the money distributed.

PLAY FOR TITLE
Dresscl-Crowe Handball Team to Battle Unterspan-Jcr Combin- ation at ~ Tonight

The Dressel- Grove handball team which has been going strong in the recent tournament at the Y. NJ. C.. A., is scheduled to play the Untcr- span-Jerome team tonight for the "" doubles title. Tom Grove, well over the GO year mark, is Drcssers partner and is showing up q whole lot of the youngsters around the ."Y."
 After the tournament, Grove will take on all corners, starting with some of the hand ball sharks at the New Britain Record and Herald offices. Gerald Crean and Joe Roche it has been said, have recently teamed up and are looking for com- petition. A Bert Loomis and Tom Grove combination should make it interesting for them.
 The four or five oil shooters who made the journey to New Haven last Saturday met their Waterloo good and proper. Howard Stearns, Pert Loomis, Henry Drcsscl and Fred Unterspan all came away wiser but on the short end of the score card. Charlie Hawkins was scheduled to be with the New Britain invaders, but some one tipped him off because Charlie, it is reported, found fishing through the ice much safer. In fact he is the only one who still retains his reputation as a handball shark.

Rickard Will Reach Agreement
 With Maloney'S Manager

New York, Jan. 1S.--(Pl- Differ ence of opinion between Tex Rickard and Dan Carroll, manager of Jim my Maloney, South Boston puncher, over matter of percentages, was all that stood in the way today of a between Maloney and Jack Delaney. Rickard already has met the terms of the light heavyweight champion for the bout which is to be held in Madison Square Garden February IS.
 Neither Carroll nor Rickard an- ticipate difficulty in reaching an agreement, although the extent of divergence of opinion is not known. Further conferences are expected to- day.
 Completion of arrangement for the match, one Of the most impor- tant of the coming series to choose a challenger for Gene Tunney's championship next September, will bring together two of the outstand- ing candidates for heavyweight honors. Maloney already has dis posed of three foreign threats-De Kuh, the Italian; Persson, of Sweden, and Diener of Germany. Delaney knocked out Bud German of Wisconsin in spectacular fashion in his first venture into the heavy weight ranks.
 While the winner of the proposed Delaney Maloney bout probably will be matched to meet Jack SharkCy, Boston conquerOr of Harry Wills, an opponent may be found in the win ner of the bout between Paolina Uzcudun and Knute Hansen at the garden February '. Paul Berler- bach, who meets Mike McTigue here January 2S, is also on the tourna- ment list, and Jack Dempsey, while not definitely signed to a contract, is understood to have an agreement with Rickard to battle in the final match of the series.

Hartford, Jan. 1S-The big boys will feature the amateur boxing show to be staged by the Massasoit A. c. at Foot Guard hall Thursday night.
 No less than seventeen entries al- ready have been received in the middleweight, light heavy and heavy weight classes, assuring a number of clashes between the bulky boys who just now are quite the rage in anna teur circles.
 Topping the pack are Al Schooner, ponderous East Hampton heavy weight, and Herman Fink of Hart ford. Both Schooner and Fink scored knockout on the amateur card at Foot Guard last week. Schooner has big following in East Hampton and vicinity and more than fifty from that section were on hand last Thursday to cheer for tho big boy. Schooner won inside of one minute and his supporters went home pleased.
 Fink has established himself ] one of the hardest hitting boys in amateur ranks. Last Thursday he battled Joey Durant. Lawrence, Mass, battler. Durant tore at Fink in great style, but the Hartford box CT lossened a fusillade of lefts and rights and Durant went down for the full count in the first round.
 Springfield, Holyoke, Middletown, New Haven and Hartford and vicin- ity are represented in the entries al- ready received from the big boys.
