RETZLAFF GAINED l NEW PRESTIGE IN l SEKYRA SETBACK
Managers Beseiging Pro- frlOters Now for Bout
 With Duluth Dynamiter 1 "A Crowd Pleaser
By DIXON STEWART


 Although his recent severe drub. ping at the hands of Joe Sekyrs was a hard blow to Charlie Retz. Iaff's pride and provided a distinct setback in the youngsters cam. paign for heavyweight recognition the defeat promises to do the Du. luth fighter more good than harm
 Chance to Advance
 Already Retzlaff and his man. hger are being deluged with offers tor fights, whereas before his set back by Sekyra, Retzlaff was or the private "black list" of all other heavyweight hopefuls. With the other youngsters in the. class now envisioning an opportunity to ad- vance at his expense, Retzlaf now will be able to secure valuable ex- perience in matches against fight ers near his own caliber instead o1 being rushed along against more experienced rivals, or being forced to limit his competition to set-ups
 In addition Retzlaff has the knowledge that he lost none oi his popularity, or prestige, in the Sekyra bout. He pleased the fans by the manner in which he con- tinued to plunge forward and make the fight despite the handi- zap of a badly cut face and eyes which were swollen almost shut He proved that he could take pun lshment and the fact that he still Was carrying the fight at. the fin lsh--in fact made his best show Ing of the entire bout in the final found-showed that he has plenty bf the courage and fighting spirit which stamps, a true top-notcher.
 Always Dangerous
 Even though Sekyra's speed boxing skill and ability to tie up Retzlaff in the clinches gave him the advantage, the westerner was dangerous to the end and many boxing critics were convinced that he would have gone on to win by ! knockout had the contest con- tinued few more rounds. Fresh and strong or battered and blind- ed, Retzlaff is dangerous as long As he can continue to swing and his punch and fighting heart are bure to carry him far.
 Jimmy Bronson, formerly asso- tiated with Gene Tunney, was in the Retzlaff dressing room after the bout and although he previ- busly had not been "sold" on RetZ- laff's merits, he changed his opin- lon on hearing Charley's first re- mark to Manager Jack Hurley Feet him again as soon as you can, Jack. I'll beat him."

FARLEY DISCUSSES
'FLOATERS' IN CITY
"BreadIine Racket" Explain
ed to ReicheIderfer and
Others at Meeting.

New developments in the local
unemployment situation, including
activities of So-called ''panhandling
prof1teers," were the subject of special
conference this afternoon between Dis
trict Commissioner Luther H. Reichel-
derfer, members of the District of Co
lumbia Committee on Unemployment
and Y. NJ. c. A. officials.
The conference is said to have re-
suited from announced discovery by
Y. M. c. A. officials of an apparent
"breadline racket" participated in by
unworthy "floaterS," who were using
the Y. M. c. A. lobby as base of
operations.
The first step in the drive to meet
this problem was taken last week, when
the Y M G. A., with the cooperation
of Frederic A. Delano'S employment
group, placed an experienced contact
man" in the "Y" lobby to question per-
sistent loiterers. This representative.
George B. Lands of Ohio, has diScov-
cred numerous examples of unworthi-
ness among unemployed and at the
same time he has been able to assist
deserving men in dire need of work.
Evidences of panhandling 'racketeer-
ing" also have come to the attention of
the Police Department, and Maj. Pratt
has instructed his men to enforce rig
idly the municipal vagrancy regula-
tons. Care is taken to except all cases
of unavoidable idleness," however.
The conference this afternoon was
held behind closed doors at Y. M. G. A.
headquarters, 1886 G street northwest.
Among those taking part, in addition
to Commissioner Reichelderfer, were
