FORMER CHAMP WRITES WHO IS
 WHO IN BOXING
Max Schmeling Is Rated
 Next After Boston Cob ] -Lomskii' S Sphere

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-So far as Jack Dempsey is concerned, the heavyweight champion of the world is Jack Sharkey of Boston.
 Ranking the boxers in eacn divi- sion for The Ring, a fistic maga- zine, the old Manassa Mauler puts Sharkey at the top of the heap and terms him the accredited worlds heavyweight champion"
 Back of the Boston sailor Demp- sey ranks Max Schmeling of Ger many, Tuffy Griffiths Of Sioux City, Ia, and Phil Scott of England. Then he groups seven men-Tommy Loughran, Otto von Porat, George Godfrey, Johnny Risko, Victoria Campolo, Young Stribling and Pao- lino Uzcudun.
 Before Otto Lost
 The rankings were made before Paolino's victory over Von Porat in the Madison Square Garden the OlllCl liiSllt
 Of his own plans Dempsey says little that is definite He believes that Sharkey is good enough to repel all attempts to take the heavyweight title out of this coun- try, but hints that if the sailor fails he Dempsey may try an- other comeback. T still feel" says Jack, that even with my long absence from ring competition I could give a good account of my self with any of the present crop of heavyweights. On the face of things, however, I feel I am done as an active participant" Dempsey's rankings succeeded those made for The Ring for several years by the late Tex Rickard. Ranks Leading Boxers Here's the way Dempsey ranks the leaders in the other divisions: Light heavyweights-Maxey Ros- enbloom, Jimmy Slattery, Lou Scoz- ga, Leo Lomski
 Middleweights = Mickey Walker, Dave Shade, Rene Devos, Ace Hud- kins.

Fielding H. Yost attributes a good many football defeats, among them Army's by Stanford, to excessive eagerness to receive the kickoff; 1T ether words, too much emphasis on possession of the ball, regard less of position.
 "Of course I would not say Army was good enough to beat Stanford, lad it decided not to receive the kickoff during the second half, but the fact that West Point elected to receive all the kickoffs in that half contributed to Stanfords one sided victory. The Army wore itself out trying to get somewhere from deep in it's own territory. I have seen many other teams do the same thing.
 Position has everything to do with possession Of the ball. went on Michigan's old master of de- fense. What advantage is there in having the ball inside your own 20ior 25 yard line? And if you are any nearer your own goal, your one desire is to get rid of it, isn't it?
 Where it is a matter of choice, I say: let the other team take the kickoff and do the worrying I always instruct my boys to kick on the first down when well within their own territory. Look over the records showing the few times team scores on any sustained marches from it's own territory and you will see what I mean
 Unquestionably the figures bear out Professor Yost, despite the in- sistence of many coaches that po- session of the ball is the thing; that if you have it in hand, no matter where, there is chance of going somewhere and doing things with it. Unfortunately the tumble, the intercepted pass and the block ed kick happen to be vital factors in turning football tibes. Their menace may just as well be recog- nized now, while all is quiet on the Western front.
 Dartmouth and Minnesota, both of which play Stanford in 1930, may find it worth while to jot down Prof. Yost's suggestions for future reference.
 Even the figures can at times be thrown for a loss and it seems that Nebraska's Cornhuskers were the inadvertent victims of a little juggling when The Associated Press footed up it's annual "Five-Year Standings"
 The Huskers were rated thirty fourth on the list with 27 victories, 12 defeats and six ties for the 1925 1929 period of combat but as matter of fact they suffered only eight defeats, an average of less than two per. season. This gives Nebraska a winning percentage of  I'll, instead of 692 and puts the Huskers well up the line, in 18th place, sandwiched between Penn sylvania and Minnesota.
 In it's rightful spot for five-year performances, Nebraska is topped in the Middle West, only by Notre Dame and Illinois, which rank sixth and eleventh, respectively.
 Revision of the Five-Year Rec crds to take in the New Years Day engagements, which rightfully be- long to the 1929 season figures shows that Southern California hurdled Pittsburgh and took sec ond place in the standings by vir- tue of the trouncing administered to the Partners in the Rose Bowl.

 NEW YORK, Jan. 23-Above the racket in Jack Shal-iey's dressing room last September arose the daring challenge:
 Nov, bring on them foreigners"
 The speaker was just one of many sounding off after Boston Jack had forced Tommy Loughran into that memorable move for "a minute to find out where I am at."
 Anyway, those quotes were not Sharkey's.
 He uses better English.
 Furthermore, he was speaking of another subject - himself, for in stance.
 You couldn't alibi for Jack, though, on the grounds that he is more of diplomat than to utter such a careless remark. Dempsey taught Sailor Jack that diplomacy had no part in his repertoire.
 And Sharkey to all intentions will be the antithesis of diplomat when he tries to add his name to those who have knocked the props from under Phil Scott, the finan- cially- minded fireman from good Old London.
 Jack apparently will have 15 rounds in which to chop away at Philip.
 The place, of course, is Miami.
 The date is February 27.
 The distance has not been defi- nitely settled.

THATBOY PROBLEM
(MarShall News Messenger)

What is the boy of sixteen to eighteen years of
age to do during his spare hours the hours when he
is not at school, when he is not taking part in ath
letics, when he does not to stay home under
parental restraint?
The problem is regarded by many serious
On the other hand, there are those who say
there is problem that in their youth they loafed
in the same places and did not turn out badly
after ALL AS to which viewpoint you take well that's
a matter of choice. These boys forbidden by law
to loaf in pool rooms they have been criticised for
hanging around soft drink places, they have found
that most merchants do not want them in the way
of their customers Where they to spend their
spare time? Club rooms gymnasium, and other
solutions have been offered but will the boys spend
their spare time in such places: Why do these
boys take to the street at night anyway?
The answer to the last question: it, is
that they tired of working and playing under
supervision. The average boy of this age is under
supervision from morning until night, then he wants
to get away from it. He goes to school in the morn
ing goes home at noon returns to school, and when
classes spends the rest of the afternoon on
the basketball floor football field, in other
activity, always with someone watching him and tell
ing him what to do. BY night it is natural that he
should want to break away from restraint
The solution to this problem lies, perhaps, in
providing "loafng" place that has wholesome sur
roundings yet is free from supervision and is suf-
fciently attractive "loafing" place to make it
popular with the boys. If you can create such a
place. you may solve the problem.

the same date in 1929. Total of &c.
23O, however, is about $4,000 less
than the total registered up to Dec.
81 last year. Apparently a large
number of old cars have been junk
ed, some have been sold out of the
state, and some probably have not
vet been registered. Whether this
will be made up by now registra-
tons remains to be seen. Last year
about 10000 were registered be-
tween April 1 and Dec. 81.
Total fees collected up to April 1
were S9.47S.403 and last year at the
same date SS.976,s47. About $780,
900 came in between April 1 and
Dec. 81 in 1929.

Nut Oleomargarine Made From
Cocodnut Dried in Trobic Sun

The following article, printed in
the Farmer and Farm, Stock and
Home, describes effectively how OIL
60 is produced, and what it con-
tains:
The principal vegetable oil used
in the manufacture of oleomargar-
inc is cocoanut oil.
Cocoanut oil is made from copra,
| and copra is a product produced
under unusual and somewhat dis
tressing circumstances when you
think of eating it, or anything made
out of it. Copra is by-product in
the production of marketable cocoa
nuts. It is made on the islands
where cocoanuts grow the East and
Wkst Indies, the Philippines, and
hundreds of smaller tropical is
lands.
In making copra, the unmarked
able nuts are split open with a
machete, but not quite through. The
halves are left hanging together on
one side like a hinge. They are
then turned with the meat side out
ward and strung over a rope
stretched between two trees to dry
in the tropical sun, fully exposed
to all of the flies and other insects
for which the tropics are noted-or
| cursed. In time the meat dries up
in the intense heat and shrivels so
that it may be easily scooped out
of the shell. This dred cocoanut
meat is what is known as copra
After it is scooped out of the shells,
it is hauled or carried to the sea
shore, and piled on the warf to
await the arrival of a copra boat.
Boats which load copra touch at
many of the islands which produce
it at only infrequent intervals. Cop
ra is loaded out from some of the
larger islands every two months,
from others every six months, and
some of the more isolated islands
wait a whole year for copra boat.
And there lies the copra on the
wharf waiting with the hot trop-
ical sun beating down on it. In
sects buzz above it, the sun cooks it,
it steams, stews, and, some say
begins to move around by the time
the boat comes.
The smell of this mess is sicken-
ing, and there is saying that a
| copra boat can find it's way about
the island without compass, mere
ly by smell. Even the "ships" that
pass in the night" can tell when
they are passing an island where
corpa is awaiting shipment.
After copra reaches the factory,
the cocoanut oil used in so-called
butter substitutes is pressed out OF
| it between heated rollers. It is then
run into large watts and quantity
of sodium injected. The rancidity
of the oil is eaten away by the so
dunn. The oil is then treated with
ether which process solidif1es it.
Then the manufacturer has what he
terms the white meat of the coco
nut"
The recipe used in making 1000
pounds of nut oleo follows:
600 pounds cocoanut oil.
100 pounds of soy bean oil.
80 gallons of skimmilk.
| 81 pounds of salt.
! The cost of the raw materials va
ries from six to eight cents per
pound.
This recipe does not contain any
