SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 12, (P)--- Twenty-six years of steady promot- ing of boxing has convinced Al Young that the old time boxers were much more clever than those of today.
 He attributes this to the fact that interest was greater in amateur boxing then and that there were more instructors.
 When Battling Nelson won the lightweight title from Joe Cans, he says that most of the aspiring youngsters changed from boxers to sluggers. Young has promoted fights longer than anyone on tie coast

Fishermen Distinguish
 Between Fish Schools


 GLOUCESTER, Mass, Oct. 13,- lP) An inlander watching a fisher man about his work might credit him with a sixth sense in his un- canny ability to tell whether a school of fish is composed of mack erel or porgies or herring. But it is really simple.
 Old fishemen watch the water. If the fish rush along the surface in a body they are mackerel. If they merely ripple the surface in the manner observed when a mov- ing body of water impinges against Ia counter current they are porgies lor herring.

[. ]. ?. PROMISES BUT FALLS DOVVN
 SAYS AL. SMITH
REPUBLICANS MADE THE SAME PROMISE FOUR YEARS AGO
 REMINDS SMITH

NASHVILLE, Oct, 13, P)-The utterances of Hoover and Curtis drew fire from Smith who accused his opponents of having used vague language in setting forth their views, speaking here within a few miles of the tomb of Jack son, one of the founders of the Democratic party.
 The Governor again appealed for application of Jeffersonian doc urine of States rights and to ad- ministration of the Nations many affairs, farm relief, water power, immigration and prohibition.
 His address was interrupted many times by cheers from the crowd which packed the Ryan auditorium and overflowed into the streets.
 He was frequently interrupted by shouts of "You tell 'em All" Give it 'em All" He said that he had accidentally read in a paper where Curtis had undertaken to reply to his Omaha speech saying "The tariff protection on farm pro- ducts was an important means whereby it would relieve the de- pression in agriculture and place the farmer in a position of ecoroiIl- : ic equality with other industries. To which the Governor replied with "Now the Senator has chang ed his mind again and is making this statement so often that he IS going to take a chance that some one will finally believe it."
 Smith added that the Republl- cans made this promise four years ago in their party platform and have done nothing about it. He de- clared that in his opinion Curtis was 'The last man in the United States" that was in position to defend the Republican position on tariff" He went on saying. "Ano next to him is probably the Rep ublican Presidential candidate, and next to him the President himself"
