fought Gene TunS1ey with the
worlds heavyweight crown at
stake. The other night he was
terribly, beaten by Tuffy Grit
fitns. The referere stopped the
bout in the tenth and final
round. And that seems to be
the end Of the fiStic road for
good, stout hearted Tom. His
career has been one. Of the really
remarkable ones Of modern ring
annals. .........
Champion of Australasia, he
went to England along in 1925
with the hope Of getting action,
cash and recognition there. But
there wasn't much success for
him. He decided to return to
New Zealand and had planned
to tske, the route through the
Suez Canal.
Charlie Harvey, American man
ager Of many European warriors,
and a friend of Tom. urged him
to 20 back by way; Of the U. s. A.
He thought Tom might find some
interesting spots in America that
he could visit en- route from New
York to San Francisco.
So Tom came to this cOun-
try. He had no real thought
Of fighting. Yet opportunity
hammered on his door soon
rs he arrived. The man
matched to meet Charlie An
dersOn, the big negro heavy,
took sick, somebody was
wanted as substitute, Har-
vey, heard about it, suggested

Pauline. In q return battle he
held the Basque to q draw. de
whipped Jack Delaney, stopped
Jim Maloney, and finally got the
big shot at Jack Sharkey. To the
surprise Of many, Heeney got q
draw with Sharkey in a Is
rounder.
It was his showing in that bat
IL, that really gained him the
crack at Tunney. Tex Rickard
favored Risko over Heeney as q
foeman for the champion, but
Tunney. tagged Tom as. the man
he would fight-and Heeney was
elected.
Thus, in less than two years,
Heeney, who came here only TO
visit, had the chance to win a
worlds crown. He failed-but he
received more than 100000 as his
reward. And that. plus perhaps
500, 900 or. $125, 900 more that he
drew from his other fights, was
balm enough to heal all the hurts
that Tunney'S fists caused.
Tom announced his retire
ment thereafter and went
home to New Zealand. He was
back within . few months,
wanting action. He got it,
but his success since then has
been almost zero. In 1929 he
lost to MalOney. Won POrat,
- CampOlo and George HOff-
man. His only victory was q

After his defeat last September
by Hoffman, Tom was quoted as
saying it was his last fight. But
he came back again and the newer
return was climaxed by his beat
ing at the hands Of Griffiths.
Tommy has grown old and is a
bit weather-beaten; the storm Of
blows he has weathered have left
their marks. He has slowed and
the ability to take punches, as
well as the power to deal them
out, have slipped away from him.
Tom is q fading veteran. He has
had much rough treatment Of late.
But he has the comforting knowl-
edge that a chance visit to the
U, S. A. and an accident to an
other warrior gave him the oppor-
tunity that he cashed close to
$3.50, 900.

Doak, being counsel here for the

But Mr.. Hoover contended he should
have the right to name any one he
chose.
In view Of Green's warning, Mr..
Hoover intiinated he considered it
his duty to name Doak.
Il do not feel that 1 can consent
to the principle" said the President,
"of debarment Of the railway en-
ployeS or other labor unions and
associations or any labor man in
the United States from the oppor-
tunity or the aspiration to attain
any Office in he land.
II have the highest respect for
Mr.. Green and the federation, but
Mr.. Green's enunciation that ap-
pointments must come from one or
ganization imposes upon me the
duty to maintain the principle of
open and equal opportunity and
freedom in appointments to public

Green expressed keen disappcins-

not say whether the federation
would fight Docks confirmation by

In 1908 he became general chair
man of the Norfolk & Western
union. In 1916 he was chosen pres
ident and national legislative rep
resentative.
From that time on he was elected
to successive Offices in the brother
hood of trainmen, finally becoming
vice-president.
His latest post, obtained after he
turned Gown the presidency, was
editor oft he brotherhood magazine

He lives with Mrs. Doak On a

During the war he served on the

labor, and one which 1T is difficult
to understand.
Green argued that Presidents
have selected federation members
since the post was created, and that
there are many eminent men in the
department who could have been
chosen.
Doak's friends believe he will be
confirmed by the senate. He has
been legislative counsel Of the
brotherhood here for nearly fifteen
years, and knows every member of
the senate, many of them init
mately. It is understood he wants
to make peace with the federation.
At the very moment the President
was announcing his appointment,
Doak was in conference with fed

MARQUETTE, Mich, Nov. 90
Coast guardsmen set out over chop

for the grain carrier Maple Bay of
Montreal with a crew of twenty-five
men which has been unreported
since late Tuesday.
Captain T. E. Deegan, command

which whipped the lake into a fury
soon after the vessel left Bette Girls
bay, Tuesday afternoon.
The Maple Bay was to have made

from Bette Girls bay down the lakes.
The coast guardsmen said before
starting the search today that they

Maple Bay would have taken from

Army has a heavier team and can
alternate its speed attack with pow

Both teams will be fighting to

A tie with Yale is the only mar to
Army's othNwise perfect record.
while Notre Dame has won all of its
eight games this season.
Notre Dame also will be defending
its record of never having lost a
game on Soldiers field.
The game is the first Notre
Dame-Army clash held in the mid
west, the seventeenth previous
games having been played at West
Point and in New York.
Army has appeared at Soldiers
field only once, playing a 81 to q tie

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-Imme-

submitting the Root world court
protocol to the short session begin
ming Monday.
Senator James E. Watson, Repub-

fatty he is opposed to consideration
of the world court at the short seS-

President Hoover, likewise, is OPP
posed to an extra session, and in his
announcement Friday of his inten-

short session warned against it's
use as a means of forcing an extra
session.
II the issue does get before the

Senator William E. Borah of

Company collector, of $4,000
under a Pennsylvania rail-

One of four or five shots they
fired went through the window of

Free was taken to st. vincent's
hospital and Mobach to city hos

Collector Is Beaten
The bandits entered Frees auto
in front of the Pettis Dry Goods
Company, 25 East Washington
street, and with guns forced the
collector to drive beneath the sub
way.
In the gloom there they beat
him, and when he called one of
the men by name, the latter shot
him above the ear. Three or four
additional shots were fired, accord
ing to witnesses.
The bandits fed from Frees car,
and, according to Ray Wyatt, S26
Union street, truck driver who
entered the subway from an OPP
poSite side as the shooting started,
they climbed into a red sedan en-
-bellished with much nickel plating,
and escaped.
Free clambered out of his car, and
screaming for held ran into the
grocery, where Mobach had been
struck by a stray bullet
