Pastor Urges Truce
On Political Issues

Departing from the Biblical
text in his sermon yesterday, DR..
Andrew Melrose Brodie, associate
minister of the New York Ave
nue. Presbyterian Church, warned
his hearers against the unem-
ployment problem and recon-
mended a political moratorium.
"Any scheme that permits 10
per cent of the people to acquire
and hold 80 per cent Of the
wealth of the Nation is not only
unbrOtherIy and inhuman, but
unjust and cruel, and carries in
itself the seeds of decay and
slow but certain destruction"

They stubbornly hold that once
a team has acquired a franchise
in the league. it belongs to that
team until they have officially
stated that they no longer want
it. At any time, they add, the
team can transfer such a fran
chise to another team, with the
understanding that it is only
loaned to them until the original
owners wants it back.
It is a problem that involves
many delicate points and all the
team captains and officers of the
league are urged to go after it in
friendly and open-minded man
ner, and to get it settled to every
ones satisfaction.

For several years this problem
has been ranking both those
connected with the District bowl
ing league and those seeking con
nections, but this year the smoul'
dering spark has been famed
into a roaring fire and the direc.
tors are determined to settle the
question once and for all.
Belong to League
The majority of the directors
maintain stoutly that all fran
chises belong strictly to the league.
That franchises are only loaned
to teams for the duration Of the
season, after which they revert
back to the league with the teams
who held franchises the previous
year receiving a preference at the
next redistribution.
At no time can o team or a
member of a team transfer the
franchise to some other team,
no matter how many years they
have held such a franchise, they
insist. If a team does not wish
to -enew it's franchise then it
is up to the league directors to
award the franchise to another
applicant, the previous holder
having forfeited all rights to it.
They also add that they believe
that once a team has forfeited
it's franchise, 1t should be re.
garded as a new entry should it
again seek to re-enter the league.

TONY MUST K. D.
KID BERG

NEW YORK, Sept. TN Chi
cago last April, Tony Canzoneri,
then believed to be tottering on
his lightweight throne. astounded
the fistic world by stopping Jack
(Kid) Berg, the busy Briton. Berg
had been kayoed only once before,
by Billy Petrolle.
Can Canzoneri knock out John
Bulls boy again next Thursday
when they clash at the Polo
Grounds here in a 15-round title
bout? If Tony is unable to win
by the sudden death method, he
can kiss his title goodbye.
That Is the opinion Of the
best minds on CauIiflOwer Alley
today. The champion himself,
while confident Of his ability
to put Berg on the floor again
for the long count, admits he is
not sure he can win In fifteen
rounds on points.
He realizes that Jackie's inces-.
SAINT boring-in> style makes a
great impression the boxing COM
missions judges here, and that
the Briton is likely to win the
decision if the bout goes the
limit.
Berg claims his knockout by
Canzoneri in Chicago was an &C
cident.
81 fell forward on my face
and hit the floor" he says.
''The jar Of the floor hurt more
than his punch, and ] was stop
ped by the referee after / had
gotten to my feet at the count
of six"
Canzoneri does not regard his
win as a fluke. He predicts he
will do it right back again and
in even quicker time.

POJELLO match
FOR DE LAUN

That master wrestler, Karl Po-
jello, will prove more than a
match for Don De Laun, the Ca
madam heavyweight, in the semi.
final of Promoter Joe Turner's
wrestling program at the Clark
Griffith sta dunn, Wednesday
night.
Pojello, the veteran Lithuanian,
Is exceedingly popular with local
fans because he wins without any
display of rough stuff or foul tao
tics. Local fans have come to
learn that Pojello is an expert in
wrestling and knows how to use
every style.
De Laun is a rough chap and
much heavier than the Lithuan-
ian but the Canadian will have
his hands full with POjeIlO.
The latter might take the short
end, but he won't submit
meelzly.
The ace spot on the card will
be occupied by Ray Steele, who
many fans here think was plenty
lucky in tossing De Laun last
Wednesday, and that old war
rior, Chief White Feather. The
Chief and Steele will toll in q
finish bout and the Indian prom
ises to finish Steele at an early
moment.
Other matches involve "Doc'
