Willie Stribling is only 26 years Of age this year but the one-time Macon schoolboy is an old man, measured by ring experience. Will lie has had about PTS fights in ten ryears as a professional and as the ,main performer of the Stribling troupe. At Miami Beach, they could have been billed as the Five Striblings Five" with Ma, Pa, Will lie, Herbie and Willie jr, in action.
 The idea persists, chiefly in some rlrts of Dixie, that Stribling still ranks around the top on the list Of heavyweight contenders. For instance, Cecil White of Martins vile, Va, writes as follows to this department:
 T do not think I am alone, among many of the fight fans of the South, in being unable to un- derstand why you and the rest of the New York sports editors ignore Young Stribling in your write-ups of the heavyweight situation, pres ent and future. -
 While he has proved disappoirt ing to us in some of his major bouts and we are aware of the fact that there have been many many better fighters than he, we also be- lieve he is just as good as any and can take many of the fighters you give so much publicity. Es- pecially does this go for foreign buns and this includes the great schmeling you have so highly touted. He whipped Johnny Ris- ko so he is compared favorably to Dempsey. Probably you have forgotten that Stribling also gave Johnny a pasting and that many others have got away with this feat once. Doing this trick twice has been quite different Sharkey beat Loughran after getting decisions over Christner and Stribling that could have been called draws with out calling for much protest from the fans present, so he is now Americas hope. So now you men, tion Camera in your latest list of eliglbles. Do you remember what he did to save himself from a mas sacre, after being dumped on the canvas by Stribling in their Paris bout?"
 Stribling has always been a tough heavyweight for anyone to beat. He looked like one of the best prospects few years ago and Tex Rickard, up to the time of his death, considered Stribling better than Sharkey, who has always been and in-and-outer.
 The Stribling ia amily council, however, chose to make tank-town scrapper out of Willie, for reasons best known to themselves. The result has been to keep him out of the main picture, away from the big business centers of boxing. Per haps this was all for the best, for Stribling never impressed New York critics as possessing cham pionship calibre. In his one inn portant title bout in the vicinity of Broadway, Willie was sound y trounced by Paul Berlenbach, then the light heavyweight champion.
 St. Paul's gifts to major league company this year have set record for one "AA" club this year, in quantity if not also in quality. The Saints sent their 1929 manager, Bubbles Hargrave along with Amer icus Polli, Ben Chapman and Dusty Cooke, to the Yankees; Bill Rogell, shortstop, to the Tigers; Al Shealy pitcher to the Cubs; and Archie Campbell, to the Reds. All seven of these graduates seem likely to make the big league grade, most of them stepping into regular jobs.

LYNHURST AREA
ANNEXATION TO
Be COURT POINT
Moves Contemplated for
Dispute Settlement by
March |.

A new suit, contesting legality Of
the annexation of territory to the
town of Lynhurst, southwest Of In
dianapolis, will be filed within few
days and efforts will be made to
bring it to trial by March 1.
Officials of the Lynhurst Civic
League today declared the anneXa-
ton legality must be established be-
fore March because of tax assess
ments then.
Governmental muddles at Lyn-
hurst today were no nearer solution
than before. Ernest E. Kellogg,
mayor" and chairman of the town
board, today denied he had called
any special meeting" of the board
for Tuesday night.
No Notification
Don Branigin, Claude E. William
son, James H. Mcclure, William E.
Harding and Rowlin j. Mcmillan,
five board members whose elections
Kellogg contests despite the fact he
voted for them, had information
Kellogg had called a special meeting
for Tuesday night and had not mott
fed them.
They failed to find any meeting at
the town hall, from which they were
ousted by Kellogg at the last seS-
sion Jan. 6 when he informed them,
on their arrival, that the board
meeting had adjourned"
The men favor Instrumentation Of
the territory, recently added to the
town by vote of Kellogg and the
former board. Kellogg claims the
five we're elected Illegally as board
members because the election was
not advertised, despite the fact he
voted for them.
Claims Illegal Action
He made claims of the Illegal cleo
ton when he learned, at the first
board meeting Dec. 16, that the five
favored Instrumentation of the tract.
The civic league has announced a
meeting for Jan. 80 at which petit
tons for Instrumentation of the terri
tory, now being circulated, will be
considered.
Professors against the annexation
of the 1000 acres would demand in
creased taxes for the town, due to the
fact much of the land is uninproved
and that the county legally could
not maintain roadwayS in the an
nexed territory.

II will do fifty years In prison

see Frank Wright made victim OF

A squat, fiorid-faced, dynamic In

famed D. G. Stephenson, snapped
out this phrase as he sat in Marion
county jail today, charged with vio-

He is c. E. Crump, Chicago, re-

Crump denied he had resisted re-
turn here and declared he was
anxious to come back and "clear the
good name of Wright who is the VIC

Later he expanded the frame

Mark Benis, who was returned
from Chicago Sunday, also faces
charges of securities law violation.
