ARREC0N-P0NCE
BATTLE TO BE
CRUDCE AFFAIR

Two boxers who have reason to
want victory badly will face each
other Friday night in the main event
at the Imperial Valley Athletic
club.
Frankie Arregon particularly
wants to beat Victor Kid Ponce. for
he realizes that win over the hard
hitting coast boy will give him re-
cogniton in coast boxing circles and
enable him to get some fights where
the big money is.
Ponce is anxious 70 fl1ttcn Are
eon, for The latter has accused the
Kid of running out on him on two
previous occasions when they were
supposed to fight, and the Kid
doesn't like the accusation aySbit.
He claims he can lick Arregon, or
couple of Arrcgons, any TIME he
wants to. and that he had good rca-
sons fer not fighting when they
were signed mp before.
Arrcgon has fought here but once
since he came back from an eXtcn.
sivc tour Of the orient, and he looked
even better as lightweight than
when ne was fighting as a feather
weight. He has plenty of speed and
the old wallop is still there in the
left hand.
Ponce is strictly right hand
punchcr, so the fans ought to reap
the benefit of right and left hand
battle.
Mariana Ccbu is smarting under
the trouncing Trench King gave him
two weeks ago, and plans on taking
ii ont on Johnny Blair, the Utica,
y. y, boy, who has just put up
several fine scraps in the local arena.
Cebu is dynamite if he can get into
. man. However, King tied him up
in knots and Blair may do the same.
If Ccbu can get ''in' with that
Wallop, Johnny is going to know
that he has been hit
Florcucio Villa will hold down the
special six round SPOT with Salvador
Lucvano of Los Angeles, ncwcom-
cr to these parts. Villa needs cx-
pcricncc, and is getting it. He can
hit hard but his boxing knowledge
is not all that it should be. How.
ever, he is ready and willing to mix
il up at all times and tries hard
TO please the fans.
l'arson Armstrong. more or less in
bad grace since he let his cousin
Andy Brooks, knock him out, will
have Cecil Bdlding Of Los Angeles
to work ON in the opener. Armstrong
has to get Il decisive victory over

RAIL ACCOUNTING
SYSTEM ADJUSTED
Utilities Commission Establishes
Uniform Plan for Local
Traction Companies.

The final step in establishing a uni
form accounting system for the Capital
Traction and Washington Railway &
Electric Cos. was taken today by the
Public Utilities Commission in an Of
fetal order tentatively fixing so per
cent of the excess cost of track recon-
struction and replacement as the
amount to be charged to operating ex-
penseS.
The order will have the effect of in
creasing the operating expenses Of the
Capital Traction Co. and reducing this
item on the books of the Washington
Railway e. Electric Co. The Capital
Traction Co since 1920 has charged 40
per cent Of labor costs to operating ex-
penses and the remaining go per cent
to capital account.
The Washington Railway 81 Electric
Co. has been using a different method
of accounting which raised the per-
centage of labor costs chargeable tc
operating expenses above the so pei
cent ordered by the commission.
An order issued by the commission
October IL, 1929, provided for the
determination by the two street railway
companies of an allowance, subject II
its approval, for excess labor costs due
to work under trafic and for the re-
moval Of the property replaced. In ar
effort to work out a percentage thai
would fairly represent the portion o.
~%nstruction costs chargeable to op'
Grazing accounts, numerous conference:
were held with representatives Of thu
companies.
The companies, however, were un
able to agree between themselves as x
the percentage to be used.

commended that in actual strife most
nations react about the same.
He urged an alliance of civic and
patriotic duty by advocating struggle
for peace along with preparedness for
possible war.
