NEW YORK, June 1S.-Pete
Latzo, Scranton, Pa, former welter-

to the top of the light-heavyweight
division.
Less than two weeks after he gave
Tommy Loughran the 175-pound
titleholder. one Of the stiffest fights
Of the latter's career, LatZo will go
back into the same ring at Ebbets
Field, Brooklyn, tonight to swap
socks with Leo Lomski, Aberdeen,

Lomski and Loughran were signed
for tonights main bout, but the
meeting was postponed when the
New York State Commission ruled
that Loughran first must go
through with his bout against
Jimmy Slattery.
Latzo readily agreed to substitute
for Loughran, and believes the
arrangement will give him his
chance to demand another match
with the 175-pound king.
The hard-hitting Aberdeen Pole
is an 8-to-5 favorite. The match is

BY ROBERT E o'HARA

With the annual city tennis
championship scheduled to open
Monday, indianapolis leading racket
wielderS today were polishing up
their strokes, and officials of the
Hawthorne Tennis Club, sponsors of
the tourney, are expecting a full
card. The absence of the brilliant
ace Of Hoosier tennis, John Hen
messy, will serve to make the COM
petition keener, and the result less
of certainty.
julius Sagalowsky, Fritz Pastian
and Tommy Wilson, who were with
Hennessy in the semi-finals last
year, are sure to be seeded in this
years meet.
Dick Bastian, J. H. Ehlers, Bud
Markey, Dick Crane and a host Of
other lluminaries, however, are GER
tain to puzzle the harried officials
who have the duty Of selecting an
unsubmersible eighth from this
years sixty-four for key places in
the draw.
The women's singles present some
formidable names for consideration.
Muriel Adams and Katherine Wolf,
1927, f1nalists, are going to have
some tough shedding to repeat.
Miss Adams was ranked ninth by
the Western Association last year.
and recently progressed to the
senli-f1nals against a classy field in
the Illinois State championships.
The doubles combination Of Miss
Adams and Mrs. Dorothy Stephen
son Stout, fifth in 1927 western
rankings, looks to be the best en-
tered in that division.
Mems doubles should call forth
some thrills, with Julius Sagalowsky
again teamed with Tonrhy Wilson,
and the redoubtable Bastians, Dick
and Fritz, apparently favorites to
face each other in the finals.
Junior singles entries include: Bob
Mccullough and Emmett Lowry. Bud
Danke again is entered in the boys di-
mems singles, doubles, Junior singles and
doubles, and boys singles and doubles;
women'S singles and doubles, and mixed
doubles.
Entries close officially Sunday night.
but the lists may be complete before that
time, as entries are limited to sixty-four
in the mems singles, and thirtytwo in all

Once upon a time the four Winds

"But where is he:" asked the

So the two blew around each

Then pretty soon, the Bob Cat
who was always on the watch to
catch rabbit, saw Uncle Wiggily
and softly growlcd:
"Now L II sneak after that bun

So the Bob Cat chased after Uncle
Wiggilv and the North Wind follow

Ha. Ha!' laughed the North
Wind. 81 can play two tricks now
one on Uncle Wiggily and one Oh
the Bob Cat.'
But it soon began to look as il
there would be left only the Boi
Cat on whom to play trick. Foi
the Bad Chap was chasing close
after Uncle Wiggily and would
soon catch him. At last the rabbit
heard the Bob Cat slithering along
over the snow behind him and, look.
ing back, Uncle Wiggily shouted:
''Oh, dear! Now l must hop fast

get away from this Bad Chap. But
how can l hop fast when my rheu'

rough old chap said:

THE ENGINEERS REPORT

In favorlng the Black Canyon site for dam in the
Colorado river rather than the Boulder Canyon which
has become household name throughout the nation,
the board OF engineers appointed to study the entire
Colorado river question: does not go contrary to the
wishes OF the supporters of the Swing Johnson bill
There has been hard and fast desire that the
dam should be built at Boulder Canyon. Both sites
have been considered equally favorable by those who
have been working on Colorado river development
Nor is the statement in the board report that
break in the dam, if constructed, would wipe out sew
eral towns in the Colorado basin cause for alarm
There is a possibility that any dam constructed any
where may go out time, but that fact does not
prevent the building of dams
The increased cost Of the project, as reported by
the engineers may be taken authentic, or may be
considered honest difference in engineers esti-
mates, when compared with the $125 100000 hereto
fore believed to be sufficient for construction There
is also the element of increasing costs to be considered
The longer the project is delayed, the greater will be
the cost that the boards figure may be
rect than the figure mentioned in the SwngJ ohnSOn
bill This fact is more argument for immediate
action than point against the project And even if
it does cost $167 100000 the expenditure of such
is justified by the results to be obtained
The board also asserts that it will be impossible
TO retire the cost of the project within the so years
specified by the present terms of the Swing JOhnSon
bill 1t does not assert that the proposed plan of
meeting the cost through the sale of power is not feas
ible, but that it may require greater amount of time
TO carry it out.
The important thing in the report of the engineers
is that the project is sound from engineering stand
pont It's economic soundness is not challenged by
the report which merely dsagrees with the previous
estimates of cost and time required for payment
