herd there will be herds from scv-
cral western states entered in com
petition for valuable prizes and
trophies. Inasmuch as California is
now sending about $5G000,000 Il
year back east for hogs and pork
products, the swine show at the big
Los Angeles live stock exhibition
is expected to be of special interest.
Not only will there be complete
line of breeding exhibits but there
will also be fat stock which will
enable California ranchers to deter
mine the type Of hogs most success
full for California production.
In addition to the swine herds
there will be several herds of breed
ing cattle, including Shorthorns,
Hcrcfords, and Aberdeen Angus and
complete fat sheep exhibition. The
fat stock will be sold at public
auction with the principal bidders
being Los Angeles meat packers,
hotels, restaurants and dining car
systems. The stock show is expected
to add materially to the interest in
all forms of live stock production
in California and is expected to be
particularly valuable in improving
the quality of meats distributed in

Boxing Night At
Calexico Changed

Owing to change in schedule, the
American Legion s weekly boxing
bouts at the Calexico arena will be
held on Friday nights rather than
on Wednesday, it is announced. The
new arrangement goes into effect
this week beginning Friday, Deeem-
Der Z.
The change was made because the
legion boxing association considers
that Friday night is more favorable
for the bouts and less likely to CON
flict with other events.
Trip Limbaco, Filipino boy who
put Louis Contreras on the canvas
st Calexico two weeks ago, will meet
Bud Cougler, Wilmington main
eventer. Couglcr has a good reputa-
tion and has boxed many of the top
liners on the coast. Cougler appear

With Morgan
Nv United Press Leased Wire

SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 4.-Tod
Morgan found it tough going to
defend his junior lightweight title
here last night and the best he
could do against Santiago Gorilla,
San Bias Indian, was to get draw
after 10 rounds.
Morgan kept the title by award
of Referee Toby Irwin but the
crowd of about $4,000 fans thought
Gorilla deserved to have his hand
raised, and booed the decision.
The champion piled up Il lead III
the early rounds but the little
Panamanian finished like whirl-
wind, trying his utmost for knock
out. and took the latter rounds by
slight margin.
1t was slow fight most of the
way, neither of the fighters caring

ball LEAGUES
TO BATTLE ON
| DRAFT MATTER
By FRANK GETTY
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

TORONTO, Ont, Dee. "A bat
tie which may bring about new
alignment in organized baseball
was on in Toronto today.
The question of the universal
draft, whereby players from leagues
now exempt from selection may be
taken up by the majors, was placed
before the delegates to the annual
Injecting of the national association.
When representatives of 80 minor
leagues enter the congress, they will
have to vote upon propositions
which radically change the present
order of things. The major leagues
are well represented at Toronto,
with President Heydlcr of the Ma
tional league and President Barnard
of the American on hand, and their
influence already is making itself
felt
The universal draft, which means
! that ball players from class AA
feagues can be selected by the ma
Rors, just as players in lower cate
| gorics of baseball, was the one sub
.Icct of conversation in the crowded
/ lobbies of the King Edward hotel.
Opponents of the plan were outnum
bercd, but were v0cifcrOus in their
declarations that if any such scheme
were carried there would be break
in the ranks of the national associa-
ton, which at present embraces all
80 of the minor leagues.
Leagues May Quit
Withdrawal of the three class 4 "A
leagues-the International, Pacific
Coast and American association
is a certainty, members of those
groups declare, if any move is made
at the Toronto meeting to force
upon them the universal draft.
These leagues are prepared to
draw away from the national as.
sociation and form AN organization
of their own before they will give
up the rights. to players which they
enjoy now.
The national association itself is
not scheduled to 90 into session uu-
til tomorrow which leaves consider
able time for lobbying.
The first drive against the op.
position to the draft was made when
certain elements within the intcrna-
tional league attempted to oust
John Conway Toolc as president.
Toole represents the group of class
IA clabs which feels that the uni
VersaPdraft constitutes an cncroarh-
ment upon their rights. 1t proved SO
| difficult, this business of oustiug,
that Toolc's s opponents gave up in
despair aud did not even bring the
matter up at the annual meeting.
