Say Fence Post Bill
 Can Be Cut in Half

AMES, Iowa, Dec. 20.-Iowa's an- nual fence post bill of from 6 to s millions of dollars can be cut in half simply by giving the posts a chemical treatment, specialists at Iowa State College say.
 Almost any wood on the farm, even willow and cottonwood, they explain, can be made into posts that will last at least 10 to 15 years by an ordinary home treat ment. The lesson is drawn from the practice of railroad compan- ies, which have doubled the life of their cross-ties.

Creature Service Sports Editor)
 NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-They're laying down the law of athletics, are these judges of sportdonf Landis, Steffen, Fuchs and Ma honey
 For a long time the first named of the Big Four was THE judge of sport but others have now attract ed the public eye.
 Doubtless the best known of the jurists associated with sports is the dynamic Judge Landis, high commissioner of baseball. Retain ed to help safeguard the game which at the time was staggering from the Black Sox" scandal. Kenesaw Mountain Landis, former ly of the Federal bench in Chicago, is still a judge, mighty judge, of things concerning professional baseball.
 Another baseball figure with the word judge prefixing his name is Emil Fuchs, owner of the Boston Braves. His courage in accepting the managership of his own team, baseball men say, merits ranking with the most fearless of jurists. Jndge Fuchs formerly presided as a Boston magistrate.
 Walter P, Steffens, judge of
  the courts by vocation and judge of football talent by ayocation, IS a member of the Superior court . bench of Chicago. The brilliant Carnegie Tech team. undefeated during the 1928 football season until it met New York University in it's closing game of the year, attests to the Chicago jurist's power and influence in the game of football Judge Steffens. while officially designed as advisory coachv at Carnegie, is recognized as the man behind the gun when it comes to football at the Pitts burgh institution.
 Three of the judges hold rowcr over national baseball. the Boston Braves over the Carnegie Tech gridircn terrors, but Judge Jere- miah T. Mahoney yields the gavcl on legal subjects affecting the Amateur Athletic Union. As chair man of the judicial committee, he is chief advisor. He was active in the days of the late J. E. sui van and now is one of the trusteea of the J. E. Sullivan fund, estab lished to further the cause of ann teur athletics. He receives the greeting Good Morning Judge when he occupies the bench in 3 New York magistrates court.

HUDkINS NEARER
 ID WEl7ER GROWN
Hands Lev Tender [ Sound
 ThfashinS in New York Bout

New York. Jan. cl Cl1-Aee Hud- kins had advanced in his quest for the welterweight crown today with a ten round victory over the veteran Lew Tender of Philadelphia, ring marvel of a past decade.
 Meeting in the Madison Square Garden arena last night. Hudkins gave the Quaker City southpaw q sound thrashing but failed to score n knockout. The Nebraskan had Tender on the verge of reclining for the full count on several occasions.
 Hudkins rocked Tender with d right to the jaw in the seventh round for count of eight but the Phil adelphlan arose and managed to hold on. Ace ripped savage left to the head in the ninth that nearly pitched Tender through the ropes. Lefty Lew staggered and was sinking slowly under his opponents hard punches when the gong came to his rescue.
 When the ninth terminated, Tend Ter groggily made for neutral cor ner under the bel1ef that 1t was shts own. The tenth round found Tend Ter wearily defending himself against a merciless hail of blows from his youthful rival.
 Although the old timer was notice- ably outclassed. some 12,000 fans booed the judges verdict and Hud- kins while the venerable Tender, who has been boxing for more than a dozen years, received the applause.
 Less than year ago, Tender lost q decision to Hudkins in Los An- geles. The Nebraskan's victory last night moved him into an elimination tussle against Sergeant Sammy Baker to determine who will chal- lenge Joe Dundee for the welter- weight championship in March. The Baker -Hudkins bout is down for February 17 at the Garden.
 Hudkins weighed 149A and Tend Ter l5l pounds.

TO RESUME TRAINING
Dr. Otto Pcltzer, German Running Star, Again Fails To Defeat Anler- ican Athletes,

Palo Alto, Cal, Jan. 21 (uP)- Dr. Otto Peltzsr. German running champion, will resume training in Los Angeles today in an attempt to get into top form to compete in two eastern races next month.
 If the A. A. l.. grants him permis- sion. the German runner will take part in one race in Chicago and one in New York, he said here. He will not run in events over two miles, be- lieving his physical condition too poor to qualify for more strenuous races.
 Dr. Peltzer yesterday again failed to conquer American athletes when he finished second to Bud Spencer in a special 440-yard dash here. Les- lie Hables. who defeated Peltzer in 220-yard race last week came in behind the German runner.
 Spencer. captain of the Stanford track team. finished fully stride ahead of the German.
 The race exhausted Peltzer 10 the extent that he was barely able 10 walk 10 the club house and was on ,he verge Of collapse.
 Dr. peltzer expressed the belief that Hablcs has an excellent chance to win the 44o-yard event in the Olympics.

HO1lY CONTESTED
 RACE NEXT YEAR
Strength Of Yankees Hv Not
 Weakened Morale Of Clubs

Chicago. Jan. Fl R-There is q logical foundation--f for the feeling. said President E. s. Barnard of the American league today. that the championship race of 1928 will be the most hotly contested the league has experienced in many years. The potential strength of the Yankees. he said. has not weakened the morale Of the other seven club. and there has been more trading of experienced ball players and strengthening of clubs this winter than ever before in the history of the league.
 Reviewing the 1928 prospects. club by club. President Barnard said:
 Beginning at the bottom of tho 1927 percentage table. we find that the Boston Red Sox will be better than last year, both because of ma terial added and because of the in- creased experience of several bril- liant youngsters with whom Mana. ger Carrigan put in 50 much con- WUTA ldbL
 'The St. Louis Browns will be al. most an entirely new club in 1928. as result of the most drastic changes which ever before have been made in any American league club between two seasons. The Browns have sent several good play CTS to other clubs but Manager How. ley also has secured some good men in these exchanges. Players like Blue. Manush and McNeely would help almost any major league club. If the pitching stan measures up, the Browns will be a much better club than last season. This marked im- provement in the Red Sox and the Browns is in itself sufficient guar. antee Of an improved race when it Is recalled that the big lead the Yankees enjoyed last season was Be- cured and held at the expense of these two clubs. The world cham- pions won eighteen out of twenty two games with the Red Sox and twenty-one out Of twenty-two games with the Browns in 1897.
 Cleveland, Chicago. Detroit. Washington and Philadelphia all have added strength to their 1927 organizations. The Indians suffered last year because uhle. Levsen and Smith failed to do what was expect- ed Of them. Both Uhle and Levsen will be back in form this year and in addition the Indians have more re- serve pitching strength than | year ago. The psychology of the new ownership will also have a beneficial effect upon the work Of this club.
 With the addition of Young Cis- sell, the return of Johnny Mostil to Centerfield, the prospects of Moe Berg starting the season as . regu- lar catcher, and the presence of several promising young pitchers and outflelders, the White Sox should be able to avoid the slump that has
