BORDEAU VICTIM
Of WEIRD COUNT

Supporters Of Georgetown's
boxing team are back in town
today still bewildered by the
technical knockout registered
against Buddy Bordeau as the
Blue and Gray mittmen lost to
the Western Maryland team at
Westminster, Md, last night
five to two.
With the match standing three
to two In favor Of the Terrors,
Bordeau entered the ring against
Barnett and soon had him all
but out. AS the second round
started Bordeau again resumed
The attack and seemed well on
his way to a victory when q
wild right hand punch by Bar
nett caught him flush on the
chin. Down he went and re.
mained en- his knees until the
count Of nine by Referee Charley
Short, Of Baltimore.
He jumped up, went into
. clinch but Short waved him
to the corner and declared
Barnett the winner by . .ech-
nical kayO. On what grounds
he based this decision George
town supporters are still at
sea.
Bordeau then insisted upon ap-
pearing against Tiny" Pincura,
terror heavyweight, but was pre-
vailed upon not to do this since
the match already was lost. Don
Donaldson then went in against
Pincura but the towel was tossed
in for him right away although
he wasn't hurt.
Mike Tardugno and Capt.
Charlie Fish were the only two
Hoyas to win. each clearly cut
pointing his opponent. A, ma
jority Of the Hoya fans who made
the trip were Of the opinion that
Bordeau was not the only VIC
tim Of . weird decision, for
Henry Murphy, q. o. lightweight,
semed to have Q clear edge over
Crosby. At least he was entitled
to an extra round, they thought,
but Crosby was declared the win
ner.

PREDICTS TURN IN TIDE
 OF BUSINESS BY AUGUST
Pequot Textile Mills Treasurer Says  Drastic Curtailment Has Its
 Effect-Sees Price Jump

Salem, Mass, July IT UP)- Prediction that by the first of next month the tide will have turned and that business in the last four months of the year will prove to be much larger in volume and more profitable was made by Treasurer Ernest N. Hood of Pequot mills at the plants annual sales conference here today.
 There has been a major business depression but it is generally be- lieved that better things are in prospect with normal business not many months away Hood said. The drastic remedy of curtailment effected in the textile industry as we'll as other lines of business has had it's effect. Commodity prices are at or near the bottom and the only substantial movement in these prices must be up. Stocks of goods in all hands have been reduced to a low volume and conditions in this respect are ready for an upturn in business. The best buying season of the year is approaching and we feel confident that by the first of next month the tide will have turned.
