LADY REFEREES

Female referees are being urged
to officiate in the games of the
Ladies' Ontario Basketball Assoc1a..
ton as a result Of the scarcity OF
officials.
The Washington times., 1928-12-18

Washington's team average in
fielding for the season was .972.
while Boston's was .971. Philadel-
phia and Chicago were tied for
third with .970 each. Each team
was charged with ITS errors during
the season but the Washington
players accepted few more
chances.
One of the reasons for the high
averages of these two teams was
the accurate performing of the first
basemen for each club. Phil Todt,
the Boston first sacker, was the
leading defensive player of them
all with a seasons fielding average
OF 1897 and Joe Judge was only one
point below him. Todt made only
five errors all year in LA games in
which he had 1886 ..putouts and 81
assists. Judge was charged with
only six errors in 149 games in
which he had .486 putout9 and ~.
assists. AT one stage, Todt went
without an errer for 81 consecu-
tive games.
The leading second baseman
was Bishop of Philadelphia with
an average of 1913 made in 125
games. Prominent in gecOnd
base play were two youngsters,
Lind of Cleveland and Gaehrfn-
ger OF Detroit. each playing 154
games. The Detroit boy had
5O7 assists and took part i'm lO1
double plays. Lind had sos as
sists and was in 116 double
plays.
Willie Kamm, of Chicago, was the
leading third baseman among the
regulars with an average of .977.
During the campaign he went
through "a consecutive games at
one time without an error Myer,
Of Boston, was strong with 1863 and
was in 35 double plays.
The veteran Joe Sewell, of Cleve-
land, led the shortstops with field
ing mark of 1858. making % errors
in 1877 games. He took part in 103
double plays and the Cleveland team
set a new American League record
Of 1877 double plays for the season.
Among the regular outfielders,
West of the Washington club, stood
cut with an average of 1896 having
made only one error in 116 games.
Manush, of the Browns, made only
three in 154 games. Jameson, of
Cleveland had % assists from the
outfield and twice during the season
started triple plays. Combs, of
New York led in putouts with 424
The best fielding catcher was
Woodall, of Detroit, who made only
two errors in So games. Benbougn.
Of the Yankees, also had only two
errors in 58 games and Berg, Of
Chicago, had only three in 73 games.

As HEAVY.

CHICAGO, Dec. 1s.-Tommy
Loughran, the late" light heavy
weight champion of the world, is
fulI-fIedged heavyweight" today,
having gone into a ring here last
night weighing 1S4 pounds and COM
ins out with a 10.round decision over
big Boy" Peterson, of New Orleans,
via Minnesota.
This news, however. is merely in
ci lental to the big story that devel-
oped at the Coliseum show. Al.
though the Loughran-Peterson affair
was billed as the main event, the
when Joey Sanger, of Milwaukee, a
really great fighter, was flattened in
two rounds by lad identified as
Armando Santiago.
This astounding upset fol-
lows I'm line with the defeats of
Iuffy Griffiths, Johnny RiskO
and Jimmy McLarnin, all on
one recent night, and subse-
quentIy the stiffening Of Knute
Hanson by X. o. Christner.
The confident Sanger, who was
leading contender for the junior
lightweight laurels and matched to
meet that divisions champion, Tod
Morgan, in Milwaukee on New
Year afternoon. regarded his bout
with the abscure Santiago as
mere practice" session. Appar-
emily he was the most surprised
man in the house at the fireworks
displayed by his chocolate-coated
opponent.
Enraged by the stinging blows he
received in the first round. Sanger
threw carlton to the wind in the
second frame and started to slug it
out First he went down for a
count of nine. He was barely OH
his feet when Santiago administered
the coup de grace" Joey was
still out when the final count
was intoned
AS to Ioughran. it was turn
away crowd that came to see this
heavyweight aspirant, and it was
nightly impressed with him. There
were 10000 persons in the Coliseum
and half again as many were turned
away. The gate crossed Sal 900.
1t was hardly galIOp for the
light-heavyweight titIehOlder, for
the big boy made a good try all
the way and annexed two rounds
to his own credit, these being
the third and seventh.
However. once by a rather stormy
third round, the Philadelphia main
tanned a marked superiority, and
boxed with such skill as to estab
lish himself as the smartest most
effective young man since Gene
Tunney, and to further his candi-
dacy. in the hea vyweight division.
Loughrar had Peterson III bad
way in the first two rounds, and it
seemed that the big fellow could
not last after the second frame, in
which the light heavyweight cham.
pion battered him heavily about the
body and had him wobbling un-
steadily in the last two minutes of
the round. Peterson clung and
stayed, however. and came out in
the seventh with the aggressive
attack that momentarily stemroed
Toms progress.

Wiz AANN AOAA0|AA 1890
In his gambling rules, Garfield
was meticulous. Both at the Casino.
in Saratoga, and at his gambling
palace" at S East Horty.fourth St..
in New York, he had certain rules
that were never broken.
Young men were not permitted to
play.
Casual visitors were never per-
mitted. and, unless Garfield figured
player could afford to lose. he
was barred.
Especially in his New York estab-
lishment, entry was hard to accom-
plish, and once a man was on Can
fields blacklist he remained there
forever. Occasionally guests would
be admitted on presentation of a
letter from one Of Canfield's regular
patrons. Reggie Vanderbilt enjoyed
the privilege Of being able to present
friends and have them admitted. So
did John w. Gates.

The next day New York pa.

apparently, from his establish
ment ON FOrty-fOurth Street.
The stranger, reading the account.
hurried back to Garfield with the
vase.
Il had no idea it was valuable, :"
he muttered. Il only wanted
souvenir of my visit and the vase
looked so little and insignificant" !"
Young man." Garfield Is re-
ported to have replied. Some men
are born with the eyes of artists
seeing the beauty and rarity in
every object that comes within
vision. Others are born with the
eyes of pigs, looking only to size
and quantity"
And then Garfield did an un-
usual thing. He took the visitor
through his establishment room by
room, pointing out the rare objects
dart hidden away there. He talked
not of price, but of artistic beauty;
not or monetary values. but of the
flame OF genius that lay hidden in
every square inch of tapestry, in
every canvas and every bit of pot.
terry which the huge house held,
1t was just another side of the
Garfield personality that showed
then-a side that the public knew
only by hearsay.
The Washington times., 1928-12-18

The Whitneys were similarly
hOnOred. But with these few
exceptions. the only admittance
was on a personal card from
Garfield himself these
were hard Of attainment.
The Washington times., 1928-12-18

The reason was twOfold. One was
atmosphere. Garfield, q snob at
heart, wanted only the wealthy and
the famous to play. He had no
liking for small fry" and said so.
Unless a man could afford to lose
his thousands at q sitting. Garfield
had no use for him. The second
reason was one of protection. Can
field ran his games on trust. A reg
ular patron, short on cash, was per-
mitted to borrow whatever he de-
sired, giving only an /. o. u. for
his indebtedness. And Garfield,
shrewd and cold and canny. was
taking no chances on I. o. Us that
wouldn't prove cashable later. As
a matter of fact, at the time OF his
death Garfield still held notes and
promissory statements for some
thing more than 100000 that was
never collected.
For years the public knew THAI
inside those massive bronze doors
OF the Garfield establishment were
housed some OF the most beautiful
and rare art treasures in the
world. But it was only occasionally

One such an occasion produced
an interesting story
A certain stranger, through
some strange method, had obtained
entrance to the Garfield estaD-
lishment. He was a man of only
moderate means and he played but
little. He stayed the evening out,
however, and as he prepared to
leave it occurred to him that he
would like to take along some lit.
tie souvenir of his visit. y He
noticed, standing on a mantel,
little vase--not more than three or
four inches high, but very beauti-
fully tinted. AS he passed by he
surreptitiously lifted the vase from
its rest and slipped it into his
overcoat pocket.

THE NEW FISH REGULATIONS

It is apparent, in running over the Laws and Regulations for Protec- tion of Fisheries of Alaska, in De- partment Circular 251, that at least a few of the salmon trust fish loca
 tions are still unharmed. Take at the mouth of the Karluk River, for instance: "b' of section 15 reads: "All commercial fishing for salmon is prohibited, as follows-Karluk River: All waters within Karluk River and within 100 yards of it's mouth where it breaks through Kar- lux Spit into Shelikof Strait" The ''spit" through which the Karluk River breaks into the strait belongs to the Alaska Packers Association by Congressional action. This was a neatly worked scheme which gave the packers absolute control of the river mouth. The Northwestern Fisheries (Booth) were a strong contender for the long gravel penin- sula, but they didn't go about secur- ing the land in the same way that the packers did, and lost out How ever, they both fish the river mouth by drag seines. The packers prac- tically control the river fish from in front; the Northwestern Fisheries
