1 When the commissioners took it upon themselves yesterday to sus- pend Max Schmeling and strip him way for Sharkey's ascension to the throne. And to make 1t all the more ridiculous he might get the cham pionship without 50 much as striking a blow.
 Looks Like Sailor
 Sooner or later the commissioners will lock the doors and name suc- cessor to Schmeling. Naturally, they won't name the German to suc- ceed himself. Stribling isn't likely to be available, for as soon as he even so much as dickers with the Schmeling interests he will be sus- pended. With Stribling and Schmel- ing out of the picture Sharkey would be conspicuous among the contend CTS as a water lily in Death Valley and in all probability would be named as the new champion.
 If he did wake up some morning and see in the papers that he was the new champion, Sharkey would probably go right on making the breakfast toast, for he has had en- tirely too many ups and downs to become excited over which way the wind blows.
 Three Tough Ones.
 The Boston sailor has had more than his share of breaks, both good and bad. His bad breaks include a knockout at the hands of Jack Dempsey after he had all but de- capitated Jack in the rounds preced- ing the kayo. He got another tough break when Tunney chose Heeney as an opponent for title match, and still another when he fouled Schmel- ing with the heavyweight title all but in his grasp.
 failed him and he always found him. self right up there in the front heavyweight rank. He has given the New York boxing commission more hea daches than any other one fighter. Yet he is now its darling and may be handed the heavyweight title on silver platter.
 Plenty of "Champs."
 If Sharkey should be named champion by the commission and Stribling and Schmeling fight for the title in Illinois under the N. B. A. banner, the world, whether it wants 'em or not. will have two heavy weight champions. or "half-cham- pions."
 Speaking of a Chicago stribling- Schmeling fight. Joe Jacobs, man. ager of Schmeling. told the United Press late last night that he had not seen the Chicago Stadium officials all day, and title fight fin that city was no nearer than it was a week ago. Jacobs said. however. that he expected to "run across" the Chicago men to-day, and something might come from the running across"

WALKER HOSES"
 TITLE IN PENN

Philadelphia, Jan 7-(U. P) - The Pennsylvania State Athletic Com mission will take no action in the matter of Max Schmeling. Chairman Frank Wiener said to-day.
 "We never recognized Max Schmel ing as the worlds champion" Wien- CT said. "Therefore, we are going to do nothing about it,"
 The Pennsylvania commission will deprive Mickey Walker of his titular honors insofar as Pennsylvania is concerned at its meeting to-day, the chairman intimated.
 Passed Them Up
 Some time ago the commission went on record that it would declare the middleweight championship va cant if Walker did not sign to defend the title on or before January l." Wiener said. Walker and his man. ager, Jack Kearns, paid no attention to our ultimatum so there Is mo- thing left for us to do but declare Mickey out as the champion at our next meeting"
 Herman (Mugsy) Taylor left here yesterday for Miami. where he will talk a Camera -Stribling match with "Pa" Stribling. He plans to stage such a bout late in February or early in March at Miami.

STUDENT PAPER
 "PANS" ALUMNI
 FOR "BUTTINC M''

Boston, Jan. 7.-(UP).-The Bos- ton University News, undergraduate weekly, has severely censured the alumni for allegedly attempting to effect radical revisions in the univer- sitys football policies.
 "The presumptuous and high handed attitude of dogmauc oppo- sition which a small clique of alumni took toward the reappointment of Hilary Mahaney and Alton K. Mar sters as coaches of Bostion Univer- sity's 1891 football team has. for tunateley, availed the graduates nothing" the paper said.
 The answer to the ill-mannered and unrepresentative protest of this alumni group is the reappointment of Mahaney and Marsters. The re- appointment of these two men is a lesson to this clique of alumni. If they are subtle enough to observe 1t. Boston University's athletic problem is essentially an undergraduate probem."

Los Angeles, Jan 2. (UP)-A rec ord field of 250 amateur and profess sional golfers was entered to-day in the sixth annual Los Angeles open golf tournament, which began with a 36-hole qualifying round over six different courses. Match play will start Friday at the Wiltshire Country club.
 Only 12S will survive for the match play, including 30 profess sionals who were exempt from the qualifying rounds.

Coaches should follow a definite policy on all jump balls. There are many jump balls in a game and a definite offense of defense for held balls will insure possession of the ball more.
 The Michigan jump ball play has been in use several years in the Big Ten conference and is still ef- fective. This play is best used on the offensive foul mark.
 Notice the formation in the &C., companying diagram. The center taps ball to (F1) and he taps 1t back to center who backs up two steps. Upon receiving 1t he shoots or passes to either side players who may cut for basket. (F1) upon receiving tap from center may pivot and take a short shot.
 On jump balls in the defensive end of the floor, the ball should be tapped to a spot away from the bas- ket. If the ball should be tapped nearer the basket an interception would mean a shot by the oppo- nentS,

ALITTLE DOPE ON
 THIS HARVEY BL LOKE

Harvey probably is the first English boxer ever to visit here who IIas not dropped moro nitchcs than the sky does rain.
 His speech would make Gene Tunney cerise with envy. His dic- ton and flow of language is pure and fluent as that of Georges Arliss and Milton Cross. the radio an- nouncer.
 Lens meals arc served nt what we might consider odd hours. He break lasts at 0:3O and filct of sole of some variety of fish is included with oat meal, fruit and bucket of strong tea. Ten consumes his real feast at 4:3O, after his afternoon workout and concludes at 8:15 at night with the Outla ndish combination of Welsh ra bbit, pudding and few pots Of tea!
 He says he never had a dream or nightmare to date. Imagine an American boxer ensconcing himself upon ye slumber mat one hour after gobbing Welsh rabbit. That's what the EnglIshman does. He lures sleep by reading for fifteen minutes and then goes into a steady snore For nine hours, undisturbed by anything.
 We neglected to mention that the Rritisher tabOOcs narIaladc (sOunds like trcason). roast chicken. spinach and soft boiled GEES. Harvey holds that roast fowl contains as little nOurishnlen as concrct doughnuts and Is strictly intended for females.
 
 Brace up. dear readers. we must confess that Len is Itt'ry. Pal of Ed gar Wallace, celebrated author of many mystery novels, friend of Tom my Webster, peer of British car toonists, and others equally notable.

farm close to the edge of the main

a speakers platform and benches I'M

him. May day, immemorially dedi-
Gated to festivals, was to be his day
of triumph. a day that should repay
him for his years or labor and self
sacrifice for the public veal. OF
course, as president of the Forlorn
Valley Irrigation District, his right to
be the orator Of the day could not be
gainsaid and nobody tried to gainsay
it. He dictated his speech to his sec
rotary, edited it, revised 1t, labored
lovingly over 1t, and when It was COM
plete he memorized 1t and delivered
it, with appropriate gestures, to Henry
Rocky after the bank had closed for
the day. Meanwhile he had had en-
electrical continuance installed at the

miles down country to connect
with q puSh-button on the speakers

had the districts engineer figure APP

INsrALLMENT XVII.

~HE postmaster at Valley Center
reported that Nate Tichenor
must loathe the town with a
great loathing, because not
single letter from Tichenor, his
wife or their employees was ever posted
in Valley Center And, as everybody
knows. the pay of a country post
master is predicated on tie amount OF
business he does! A similar complaint
came from the local telegraph agent.
Nobody could ascertain, via these
agencies, ANYTHING of Nate. T1chenors
business and this was genuine de-
privation. Nor was single dollar OF
Tichenor money expended in Valley
Center for anything that could be pur-
chased in Gold Run.
The irrigation districts engineer re-
ported to BabSon that before the first

was jubilant. Under his urging, pro-

thousands of acres of land had been
prepared for alfalfa the preceding Fall.
They had been seeded just prior to the
brief intervals had kept the new crops
growing steadily and had deposited in
the lands sufficient moisture to last
until the Spring rains ceased and 1t
would be necessary to employ surface
irrigation to develop the first crop
about the first of June. Babson de-
cided therefore, to open the Lake Bah
son head-gates for the first time ON
May l and to make the occasion one
of general rejoicing; the descent, for
the first time upon Forlorn Valley of

they descended the two short steps to
the audience, while Mr.. Tenney, grim

rear. Down through the center aisle
they passed to an automobile waiting
outside the grove; they entered and
rolled away, as Silas Babson was read
ing aloud to his people the damnable
legal document that had changed his
hour of triumph into one of despair.
With dificulty controlling his voice, he
announced:
"Mr. Tichenor has a habit Of
dramatizing himself and. while he has,
of course, robbed this historic moment
of certain high lights. I had providd
for your entertainment, still his rude
and ungenerous interruption need cast.

enjoy ourselves and we shall do So"
And he proceeded to deliver his speech.
Representative Conrad Beatty followed
him and assured his hearers that they
had nothing to fear for the future
take his word for that. Henry Rocky,
invaluable in desperate moments, had
the band play whenever the speakers
paused for breath or q drink of water,
and little by little the gloom OF Nate
Tichenor's dramatic visitation was dis
