LOS ANGELES. June 90. Stan
1ardization of meats as TO quality,
size and even price may be one OF
the outstanding results and benefits
Of the growth OF so-called "chain
store' markets ali over the country.
Chain stores have built up their
great volume OF business largely as
a result of Standardization of pro-
duets they distribute, quite impor-
tant as a uniformity OF price and
quality. One of the national meat
packers states that 60 per cent of
his meat sales are to chain stores
throughout the country. Apparently,
chain store merchandising is on the
increase. so the producer of meat
animals may well give consideration
to their demands.

TONICHT'S CARD
APPEARS TO BE
SEASONS BEST

| One of the largest crowds of the
season is expected to fill the open
air arena on Imperial avenue tonight
when the opening gong of an all
slugging fistic program starts the
first pair of boys off,
The "piece de resistance is the
main event in which Ramon Mon
Ioya, one of the prides of the valley.
meets Young Imperial, the flashy
and hard hitting Filipino. This
match should be sensational at
fair and should probably not last the
full 10 rounds.
Montoya is having great year
bowling over large percentage of
his opponents and although he lost
to Impe rial the last time they fought
in the local ring it was on a foul.
Imperial was taking a good licking
hen Il right hand landed low and
laid HIM the same wny.
Unless Montoya repeats the de-
bacle 81 several weeks ago he should
be sure winner tonight. 1t is pro-
bable but not likely that he will
knockout the rotund Islander.
The crowd shouldn't have any
kick coming after the semi windup
either. If that battle isn't one of
the best local fans have witnessed
in long time then this writer will
be very seriously mistaken, if that
means anything.
Bobby Pacho, .he Yuma slugger,
tackles Johnny Kid Christmas, the
Panama flash over the six round
route in this spo: End TO figure the
winner in advance is one tough prob
lem. Pacho has been winning steadi'
ly, in fact has never been defeated
but Christmas has even a better re-
cord.
Kid Milo should take the special
event over Jack Groves of Los An
geles. Groves is an unknown guam
titv here but every boxing fan in the
valley knows how Milo can hit and
also take 'em. The best chance
Groves has is to outpoint the Mexi-
cali Mexican.
The curtain raiser shows Young
Larry of Holtville and Kid Herring
ton of Calexico. Both are sluggers
and should start the show off right
with plenty of excitement. Larry
should win, possibly by knockout.

DE SOTO FLEET
TAKES GIRLS TO
CAMP AT HIPASS

Transporting a bunch of girls to
the mountains for vacation is not an
undesirable job, and Fred Cross, man
aeer Of the Inland Motor Company,
valley distributors for the De Soto
car, readily volunteered to provide
fleet of cars to take the girls to
Hipass camp, on June s.
Before starting on the trip, the
Girl Reserves, cars, drivers and all,
were photographed in front of the
company 8 salesrooms. There were
80 girls in the crowd and about 46,-
945 tons of pep and vitality, accord
ing to Fred. Jack Harper, veteran
valley auto salesman with the In.
land Motor Company, helped Fred
make arrangements for the trip and
escorted the caravan.
Numerous stops were made be-
tween here and Jacumba to enable
the girls to explore the desert and
more stops were made on Mountain
Springs grade to permit them to take
pictures.
Arriving at Hipass at noon the
party was welcomed by Miss Helen
Scott, in charge of the camp, and
luncheon was enjoyed.
That the De Soto is popular with
young folks was shown by their de-
light with the snappy looks of the
new models. There was a small riot
in the attempt by the girls TO decide
who should sit in the deluxe sport
model roadster shown at the head of
the caravan. Ease of riding and the
roadability of the De Soto ears
found favor with the girls, who
know what ears should be like.
Realizing that the sales force had
been .'shot' for the day by the fun
they had in helping the Girl Re
serves, Cross declared the day
holiday and took all members of the
Inland Motor Company to San Diego
for dinner and a show, making the
day memorable one in the com
pany's history.

is good business to carry meats of
uniform quality and weight. Thus,
when the housewife buys four small
pork chops for 40 cents one day, she
does not expect to buy four pork
chops for 80 cents the next time,
merely because the dealer doesn It
have any small pork loins in his
cooler. Neither does she understand
why a round steak should cost 40
cents one time and twice that much
the next time-a natural result, how.
ever, where the dealer buys different
grades of beef and different sized
! carcasses from time to time. The
chain store market wants quality in
small packages. Probably that is
| one reason for the increased popu-
larity of lamb, as the lamb growers
have been developing a choice young
lamb of uniform size, quality and
weight. l-i-
The chain store has had a great
deal to do with increasing the con-
sumner demand for baby beef, be-
cause of the good average quality,
lac kof waste, small cuts and fairly
uniform scale of prices. There is no
doubt but that producers must con
tinue their efforts towards better
breeding so that the production of
choice young cattle, lambs and hogs
NAV be possible.
The retailer is just as anxious to
see a, stabilized market as any one.
He sells his food products for about
the same price week in and week
out, from year to year. 1t is diff
fieult to explain to the consumer
why there should be great variation
in retail meat prices from week to
week. Chain stores and retailers
are given serious thought to stabiliza-
tion of market values and manifest
ly, in order to have stable retail
values, it is necessary to have stable
values on the live animal at the
stock yards Some students of the
trade are inclined to credits the de-
gree of sterilization thus far realiz-
ed to the great volume of chain store
buying.
one great chaih or markets IN
Southern California is now restrict

young CATTLE steers and heifers,

Manifestly, it is impossible to pro-
,duee this class Of beef except
through good breeding and through
providing plenty of good feed from

Victor Tonight Will Strive
for Feather Crown of
FiStiana.
BY BERT DENNY,

CHICAGO, Dec. 27-Already IN
possession of the lightweight and
welterweight fistic titles and having
good potentialities for the heavy
weight crown. the middle west to-
night will put forth challenger for
the featherweight championship
now held by Bat Battalino.
The challenger will come from a
ten-round bout between Buddy
Taylor. the best of the bantam
weights three years ago, and Earl
Mastro, who has risen from pre-
liminary boy to a top-notcher in
less than year.
The fight is return engagement,
their first match having resulted in
a draw. Mastro is favored to win.
Taylor surprised everyone by put
ting up one of the greatest fights
of his life in holding Mastro to a
draw and he has appeared great in
recent workouts. There may be
some truth to Buds statements that
he is coming back" Perhaps he
isn't as fast as he once was, but he
still is as speedy as most of them.
On the other hand, MAESTRO is a
conner. He has disconcerting left
hand which takes the form Of a
hook instead of jab.
Earl's trouble has been failure to
use his right hand. He learned
early that he could beat most fight
ers with his left, and his managers
have had trouble in teaching him to
use his right. However, he recently
surprised every one by flooring
Santiago Gorilla with a right cross
and since then he seems to be learn
ing to put the proper value on his
right.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.--Another
of Madison Square Gardens peren-
NAL heavyweight elimination con-
tests will be staged tonight with
fluffy Griffiths of Sioux City and
Johnny Risko of Cleveland as head
liners.
Despite the fact that Griftlths
was eliminated rather decisively a
year ago through a one-round
knockout by James j. Braddock,
New Jersey light heavyweight. and
that Risko has been eliminated "
the bout is expected to draw a near
capacity house.
According to the "ballyhoo," the
winner will be in a position to de-
mand the bout with Jack Sharkey
billed at Miami Beach in February.
Actually the only chance for one
Of tonights contenders to secure the
match with Sharkey is for Grifiths
to score an early and sensational
victory over Risko.
Madison Square Garden officials
realize that Risko would not be a
very good drawing card for their
Miami show and unless Grifiths
turns in a knockout victory, plan
to build up" Vittorio Campolo as
an opponent for Sharkey.
Grifflths is quoted as an eight-to-
five favorite to defeat Risko tonight.
He has won all of his thirteen bouts
as a heavyweight, ten of them by
knockouts. However. his only out
standing triumph was a ten-round
point victory over Pauline Uzcudun.
