They felt the passage of full week

Hoover frankly was concerned about
the case. Police began a city wide

chance Robins might be suffering
from amnesia.
At her sisters home at Southwest

GOVERNORS TRYING
TO FIND CURE FOR
AGRICULTURAL ILLS
Spend Friday Listening to Mum.
erous Ideas From All
Parts of Country
SEEK Permanent RELIEF
Temporary Measures Also Con-
sidered at Conference in
Sioux City

Sioux City, a.. Sept. 10.-F-1n-
dications Saturday were midwest
governors here to work out a plan to
cure the farmers ills would draft q
legislative program for submission In
each of the affected states designed
to bring immediate relief to dissatis-
fled producers.
The exact line of attack on the
problem could not be foretold, but
the governors, after hearing all Of the
numerous proposals pouring in on
them from widely separated sections
Of the country, hope to work out some
plan which not only will give relief
within a short time but which may
be used as the basis for q permanent
comeback on the part Of agriculturists
of the middlewest.
The demand for an embargo to be
officially declared by the governors
was the most persistent suggestion
but officers and directors of the pro-
posed Farm Holiday association
coupled with demand for an en-
barge on farm mortgage foreclosures
and a special congress to pass the
Frazier farm debt amortization bill
Confer Until Midnight
From noon Friday until midnight,
the governors heard Representatives
Of farm organizations, business men,
legislators, judges. farmers. and nu-
merous others present plans for al
leviating the present economic con-
dition of agriculture.
From others throughout the mid
west they received by mail and tele-
graph suggestions, plans and ideas
aimed at solving present low-price
conditions which hundreds Of farm
ers have organized to fight under the
banner of the Farmers Holiday asso-
citation, which has sponsored highway
picketing in this and other vicinities
during the last month.
The plans offered for their con-
sideration ranged from a suggestion
to use surplus grain and sugar beets
in production of alcohol to be used as
motor fuel to an air-tight embargo on
all mid-western farm products until
prices equal the cost of production.
Suggestions Listed
The proposals suggested thus far
provide for: moratoriuns OH federal
seed and feed loans and on farm
mortgages, issuance of more money
by the federal government, placing of
unemployed men on small farms, gov
ernmental price fixing, and organiza-
ton of central marketing agency
designed to regulate prices and re-
move the threat of SURPRISES.
Fifty farmers, who declared they
represented 10 states from Pennsyl-
vania to Montana. Friday prepared
resolutions later submitted by w. w.
Morphew of Lincoln, Neb. They de-
clared this is no time for surrender
the farm strike must 60 on until
the farmer and his family are secure
against attacks of the money class Of
creditors"
The same group announced q ma
tional farm strike conference to be
held in Washington, D. c., about Dec.
! and asked farmers in all sections
OF the country to send delegates.

CS Battle Tribe for Third Place Conditions Ideal for Marathon
Marathon Recalls
Olden Days at ''Y"

IT'S marathon time again at the
i Central Y. M. c. A, recalling ac-
tivities of other days when long
distance running was more popular
with the average youth than it is
today.
The Y. M. c. A. marathons once
were major athletic events in the
Capital. Old timers remember espe-
cially the Thanksgiving day runs,
which attracted great crowds. The
marathons waned in popularity with
the advent of the era of less Strenu-
Gus exercise. like golf and ping pong.
This evolution also saw the dumb
bell and the Indian club shelved in
favor of such indoor sports as basket
bail and hand ball
The Y. M. C. A., with considerable
sentiment, has offered its facilities
to the marathoners in The Stars big
race for the national A. A. U. cham
pionship today. Headquarters of the
marathon have been established at
the Central "Y" Building. with the
cooperation of Ralph Foster. di-
rector of physical education, and r.
B. Morgan, assistant director.
The Y. M. C. A. has supplied the
athletes with lockers, towels and
soap. Three masseurs will be on
hand to give the runners rub-downs
after the grueling grind. The new
solarium and adjoining hot baths
and massage slabs will be available.
After the race the awarding of
prizes will take place in the Y. M.
G. A. assembly hall on the third
floor Of the Central Building. Coffee,
sandwiches and other refreshments
will be served.

THE SPORTLICHT
BY CRANTLAND RICE

with the pick of the world on hand
was at it's lowest ebb.
It was the dullest show on the entire
Olympic list. Even. Alberto Santiago
Lowell, the Argentine heavyweight, was
no part of the man-eater he had been
labeled. Most of those who made the
various teams could neither box nor
punch.
If professional boxers were poorly
paid after reaching the top. there would
be an easy answer. Perhaps the fact
that they are far overpaid is one of
the main reasons.
LOW many fighters or boxers can
i i you mention in the same class, as
athletes or performers or COM
petitors. with Babe Ruth. Gomez, Coch-
rane, Foxx, ODoul, Wright, Cuyler,
or Sarazen, Hagen, Armour, Mac Smith,
or Tilden, Vines. Cochet. or Hitchcock,
or Billy Carr, Eddie Tolan, or Taxi
mura? Or a hundred others?
Most of the ringmen are far behind
in championship skill. Most Of them
are deep down as competitors.
The fight game may be the toughest
Of the lot. But even that would hardly
excuse the wide margin of inferiority
that belongs to the pugilistic domain.
Why should it also involve the anna
teurs? If those who fought in the
Olympic tests at Los Angeles are the
pick of the World-as they were sup
posed to be after long eliminations-
there is no bright spot for the future.
The old slap-dash of the scrappy anna
teur was missing almost entirely from
the picture. And there wasn't skill
enough to lead the way to $25 prelim-
mary job.
THIS Is probably nothing to get
l. steamed up about. There is plenty
in the way of action left in the
other lines. But the fight game is where
the big pay-off takes place when one
reaches the top. 1t is where the i'm
portant money blooms.
The average ring champion looks on
the average client as sucker. He isn't
going to bother about it so long as the
fight fan shows yearning desire to
take it-and like it.
But after waiting some years since the
Dempsey-Tunney era, it would seem
that at least two or three entries of
some class would step out in front of a
foundering parade and prove that real
champion was about ready to earn at
least 10 per cent of the kale he collects.

LEONARD DEFEATS
SARK0 ON POINTS
Ex-Champ Displays Old Skill
in Decisive Victory-0n
Attack Throughout.
ONG BEACH, Long Island, Au-
gust 20.-Benny Leonard, former
world liphtWeipht channninn


gust 20-Benny Leonard, former
world lightweight champion
scored an easy victory last night
over Mike Sarko in their six-round
feature bout at the Long Beach Sta
dium. Leonard showed much Of his
old-time skill, blocking his opponents
best-meant punches and retaliating
with a wicked right to the chin.
Leonard's cleverness has never been
better shown since he began his come
back and he had Sarko at sea for most
of the short journey.
The crowd of about 5000 got plenty
of action in the bout, for, though
clearly outboxed, Sarko gamely came
on through every round, but was unable
to land effectively The referee was
Arthur Donovan and the judges Sam
Austin and Joe Agnello.
Leonard weighed 152 pounds and
Sarko 143.
Leonard opened the bout with, an
aggressive rush and quickly had Sarko
on the run. Sarko near the end of the
session made counter offensive,
which, however, Leonard quickly stop
ped by superb boxing. Thereafter
throughout the bout Leonard forced the
issue for the most part. and when Sarko
attacked showed his old skill at block
ing and hitting his opponent when the
latter was unprepared. Leonard made
good impression with the crowd.
In the semi-final six-rounder Willie
Klein of Germany, l57 pounds, and
Jimmy Cuppola of Williamsburg, 152,
fought fast draw.
