r e a C tionary Lobbyist
of Big Farmers Fights
Discussion of Relief

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-That
farmers need not nourish their
imaginations even with the hope of
farm relief was made evident by
an announcement that Chester H.
Gray, reactionary Washington rep
resentative of the American Farm
Bureau Federation, was opposed to
action by congress on the farm
question at this short session.
He spoke to a number of senators
and representatives, urging them to
oppose consideration of the farm
board bill and tariff revision until
spring, on the pretext that the
farmers could expect more aid from
Hoover than from Coolidge. He
said nothing about the impossibility
of getting any real help from any
president or congress now or in the
future, with Wall Street complete
ly dominating them.

FEAR OF DISORDER AT RINGSIDE
 CALLED BOXING BAR IN BIC TEN
By CHARLES w. DUNkLEY Associated Press Sports Writerj

tHSSoCiated PreSS sports Wrlter ]
 CHICAGO, May 2.-The art of massaging collegiate whiskers with boxing gloves may become a major sport in the Western Con- ference, along with football, be- fore many years elapse.
 John L. Griffith, commissioner of athletics of the Big Ten, so be- lieyes.
 Athletic directors are in favor of the sport, which has been con- ducted successfully in eastern and southern universities. The only thing that stands in the way of immediate adoption of boxing, is the fear, in the minds of the di- rectors, that they might have diff ficulty in restraining the emotions of the crowds of student specta. tors. Some, it is thought, may be come so imbued with the spirit of the thing, that they will begin seeking each other.
 "In that connection" said Grif- fifth, some of the athletic dlrec tors in different colleges in tn, country, who have noted witt great concern the ill'behavior basketball crowds and the attitud of some students towards official handling the games, have serious ly suggested that basketball b discontinued for a year or so a. an intercollegiate sport.
 While this probably will no be necessary, due to the fact tha the basketball coaches as clasi have taken the responsibility trying to educate their students and sport followers in the fin' points of being good spectators yet the very fact that basketball crowds have presented a trouble some problem explains why thest same administrators are loath tC assume the responsibility of guar anteeing good behavior on ths part of boxing crowds"
 Commissioner Griffith believer in the need of personal combat games as means of teaching boys to think accurately anf quickly under fire; of teaching them to carry on efficiently when punished and of showing them the need of right living and rigorous physical training.
 He said that all of the college athletic directors and coaches who had any experience with ath- letes during the war are convinced of the need of personal comba; games, particularly boxing.
 The National Collegiate Athletic Association, Griffith pointed out maintains a boxing rules commit tee and has given it's approval o boxing as an intercollegiate sport
