ey with little difficulty.
AS far ~ the fight went. Ma
'onev won only one round-the
first. Even in that first round he
had his left eye opened By a well
directed right hand punch. After
the first there was no doubt about
the winner.
In the fourth round Sharkey
slammed Maloney to the floor for
n count of three. Maloney was
pulling himself up with the aid of
the ropes when the gong ended the
round
Sharkev came out with his defiant
sneer in the fifth round and raped
Maloney to the floor again with II
right to the jaw.
Maloney struggled to his feet and
was sent down again with another
right to the jaw. Maloncy, show
ing that his gsmeness cannot be
questioned, rolId over and over on
the floor, pulled himself up with
the help of the ropes and then col
| lapsed on his face in the resin as
the referee stepped in and stopped
tho fight.
Maloney did have a bad break in
the first round when his eve was
opened, but that was no excuse for
the inferioritv he demonstrated in
the later rounds.
There can be no question that
Sharkev is the better fighter

Looking back it is easy to be-
lieve that Sharkey may have receiv-
ed his inspiration just before the
fight began. After United Press
dispatch telling of Captain Lind
bergh s whereabouts had been read
to the crowd, a silent prayer was
said.
Then someone yelled from the
depths of the stadium

The anonymous sentiment may
have gotten under the thick skin of
the clustering Lithuanian. At any
rate he showed right hand blow
that never before has been exhibit
ed and had a terrific power in his
punches. He turned out to be not
only boxer but a slugger.

tedly too close to the first row of

DON'T SCATTER

The careless pioneers of our West
would sometimes shoot wild tur-
key to eat only a bit of the white meat,
or buffalo to use but the fur.
Modern industry seems somewhat
like that. So many, many things can
be made, carried in stock, and ma
jority of these eventually sold. It's
a great temptation.
Secretary Hoover's experts tell of
a manufacturer who found himself
making three grades of shoes with
$500 styles in each grade. Too much
turkey was being thrown away. He
centered on one grade with about 100
styles and reduced prices over 25 per
cent.
A chain of drug stores found itself
in difficulties over wages. Living
costs had gone up and their people
felt underpaid The trouble was they
carried over 10000 articles on their
helves and lot of these stuck there
10 long. Their buffalo was not be-
lg turned into meat.
By cutting down to stock of TO-
DO articles the firm was able to
suble the wages, do better business
nd make more money. Their prices
did not change much because fixed
by competition. But their customers
did get better service and the COM
munity sounder condition IN that
trade.
Progress and prosperity win always
