Washington, Dec. 4.-What and
why is American prosperity. any
way?
Probably the best answer to that
question comes in the annual report
of the Department of Commerce, just
issued. This report is a sort OF
cross-section of American industrial
and commercial life. A study Of il
gives a new understanding of the
nature of American prosperity and
the way to maintain it.
One of the factors. most empha-
sized in the report is the nations
steadily growing export trade.
Since the United States has to buy
many articles from foreign countries
the report says, it must export ar
equal or greater number Of articles
to those countries; otherwise it viii
be sending out more money than II
takes in, and finance and industry
will suffer.
without imports Of such com
modities as silk, jute, sisal, manils
hemp, rubber, nickel, tin, coffee
cocoa, tropical fruits and nuts. wool
hides and skins, wood pulp ant
paper, the activity of American fac
tories would be greatly restricted
and the standards of living of con
sumers greatly lowered" says tn
report. ITO pay for the large ant

Woman Tennis
Star Suffers
Smashed Finger

MONTE CARLO, Mar. 3. P9--
Elizabeth Ryan, veteran tennis star,
has suffered badly smashed finger
en- her racquet hand and may
never play again Surgeona are
now celebrating whether the finger
will have to be amputated.
Miss Ryan, who has been sweep
ing all Riviera tournaments this
year. suffered the injury when
her hand was caught in a closing
door of a railroad compartment.
The finger was mashed to the bone.
The Californian, as a result, was
forced to withdraw from further
matches at Monte. Carlo as well as
those at Mentone9 next week.
Except for 1925-26, when she
returned to competition in the
United States, Miss Ryan has made
her home and played virtually all
her tennis abroad for fifteen years.
In both of those years the Cali
fornia chop-stroke artist was ranked
No. on the American women's
list, in 1925 below: Miss Wills and
in 1926 under Mrs. Molla B. Nal
lory, who defeated Miss Ryan in
desperately fought final round
match for the national champion
ship at Forest Hills.
Miss Ryan is the only woman
player in the world who has twice
defeated Helen Wills, SINCE the
Berkeley girl gained championship
heights. Miss Ryas accomplished
the feat in the Seabright On. J.)
invitation tournaments of 1925 and
1926.
Miss Ryan helped the United
States win the Wightman cup in
the international women's team
match with England at Wimbledon
in 1926.
Since first making her appear
ance in European tournaments in
1913, Miss Ryan has won many
honors abroad, including the wo
mems singles crown at Wimbledon
III 1921. She shared in winning
the Wimbledon women'si doubles
title eight timea, on six occasions
with Sudanne Lenglen as her part

Sammy Mandell, who has been gen

recently signed a contract with Jim
Mullens, Chicago promoter, to meet
any challenger chosen for him this
summer. The. Illinois boxing commits
sion made Mandell put up $4,000 to
show that he wasn't kidding.
When Mullens grabbed the sigma
ture of the champion, Terris, the pride
of the New York ghetto, was the out
standing challenger, but Mullens didn't
want to take a load of his contract
until he had fought McLarnin.
1t will be recalled, of course, that
in that meeting between Terris and
gNIcLarnin two minutes of the first
round had not passed when FERRIS
was dragged off the floor half dead.
One right hand punch from the coast
cherub had ruined him and ended his
regime as the uncrowned champion
If Mullens wants the outstanding
challenger for Mandell now he will
have to get the signature of McLar-
min and it may be guessed that this
will involve some difficulties.
Tex Rickard, who staged the
Terris -McLarnin fight, has way
of tying up the boys who work for
him, and it may be that MullenS
will hear from the McLarnin camp

THAT ONE-PUNCH JOB

McLarnins victory over Terris was
accepted with considerable glee, espe
cially among those who can trace
their ancestry back around County
Cork from whence came young Jimmy,
but it would be well to withhold some
hysteria in considering his chances
against Nandell
No matter what is thought of Man.
Idell's department as. an over-careful
champion, he is great fighter. Ee
lis clever, fast and smart. Terris
inever had thing but the speed of
the greatest pair of legs ever seen in
a ring There always is something
flukey about a punch knockout.
no matter. how you look at it.
Terris was careless in that first
round or McLarnin never would have
found the spot and he had to hit
that spot to the tenth of an inch as
ferris came into him. No doubt thu
McLarnin lad can punish, but it is
not certain at all that he could keep
young Mr.. Mandell on the floor with
just one crack
Terris wasn't and isn't One-haIf
the fighter he was two years ago.
When the speed of his legs began
to go he went with it, and in all
of his recent fights he had made
considerable trips 10 the canvas.
He always came up, though, until
he ran into McLarnin's right.
MANDELL IN CONDITION
You can bet your last dollar that
AIcLarnin never will find Mandell
looking around the house when a
right hand is poised for shot at
MIN. Mandell is pretty good in keep
ing his men out of position to hit
and he has more brains anG expert
ence that young McLarnin.
Even if the matches he has been
taking in isolated spots are subject to
ridicule, Mandell is fighting right
along, taking them here and there
and does harm to no fighter. Man
dell will have fought himself into
fighting shape when the time comes
for him to defend his title.
Under the circumstances, the VIC
tory over TerriS may work as handi-
cap to McLarnin He will not be
able to fight much now that he has
established himself as 9, natural for
a championship match. Rickard or
Mullens will not permit him to mix
with any dangerous men and Mandell
can take them when and where he
desires since he has satisfied the va
rious boxing commissions that were
bounding him.
