PARIS.-Ivan Fialko continues 10 be
known among his friends as the man
who cannot die" He is still young, not
vet IS. He was born at KleV OF a
landed family, and he became sololer
at an early age In 1914 he went 10
the front with the Cars troops ana
was wounded several times. Each time
his recovery was rapid, and he went
back to the fighting line. When the
Bolsheyists overthrow the regime. ne
fought against them with the Wnle
Russians under Gen. Wrangel.
One day in January, 1918, Ivan FlalKo
was taken prisoner. The Reds were re-
treating. They hustled him into
passing train. Half an hour later they
shot him on the platform of box car
and threw him into the snow. Ivan
was not dead. When night fell, ne
dragged himself toward distant hgnt;
1t was an inn. The peasants tenoeo
his wounds, and he recovered.
Joining Gen. Wrangel again, he was
transferred to the air corps. Soon att
erward his plane crashed from height
OF several thousand feet His skull was
fractured, but again he recovered, and
again he rejoined the White army.
When Wrangel was defeated, Ivan
F1alko was sent to Gallipoli On board
the transport he fell through a hatch
and fractured a leg and an arm. This
time also the surgeons saved his life.
Eventually Fialko came to France.

trucks and busses, they should be au-
thorized specifically to participate IN
this form of transportation, Flynn says,
adding that another requirement will be
liberalization of the Clayton antitrust
act to permit the acquisition by the
railroads of motor lines already in ,oper-
alton, whenever this becomes necessary
for an economic arrangement, and pro-
vided competition would not suffer.
Some railroads are operating motor
carriers, and without restraint, for
auxiliary service and as substitutes for
unprofitable rail operations, and this
system is productive of abuses, Flynn
explains, citing instances where the
carriers, conducting trucking through
subsidiaries, engage In highway rate
cutting to hold traffic and thereby pave
the way for chaotic conditions in rate
structures and competitive conditions"
Motor regulation, of course, would put
stop to this.
What Act Requires.

uutres railroads to be honestly and ef-
ficiently operated" the report says on
this general subject. I'm view of this
requirement the management of a rail-
road should not be prohibited from
using any agency that 1t may appropri-
ately co-ordinate with its railroad

GER, he drove a taxi in Paris. During
the war he had married Russian girl,
who after many hardships was able TO
Join him here.
Alexander Dormsher then appeared
on the scene. He, too, was a Russian
refugee. Fialko was good to him, gave
him a bed and shared the taxicab with
him. Alexander drove 1t by day and
Ivan by night. Then Dormsher dis
appeared and Fialkos wife with him.
One day Ivan met Alexander in the
street. Ivan had pistol. He shot
Alexander dead, then shot himself, one
bullet in the breast another In the
temple. At the hospital they said both
wounds were fatal. But Ivan Fialko
pulled through once more, this time
with the loss of his sight.
When Fialko was tried in Paris for
murder, he told his story with tears
yelling from his sightless eyes. All
the Russian emigres were there to speak
well Of him. The jury acquitted him.

court, "I shall never see my beloved

DAZzLER SIGNS
CONTRACT

CLEARWATER, Fla, Feb. "a,
Dazzy Vance, baseball's leading
hold-out, broke ranks with the
salary-wranglerS today and signed
his 1882 Brooklyn contract. The
terms were not revealed but it
is believed the Dazzler signed for
$4,000.
The signing came with
spectacular Suddenness and fol
lowed a two-hour conference be-
tween the pitcher and Max Carey,
manager, last night.
The big fire ball /thrower re-
ceived $22,500 last year. The
highest pitching salary in the
National League. His disappoint-
ing 1881 record of IL won and
13 lost, with an earned run aver
age of 3.37 made it certain that
he would be one of the most
drastic sufferers in the salary
reductions being instituted in
baseball this year.

GONZAGA PLANS
FOR BASEBALL
BY SID KATZNELL

Orrell Mitchell, coach of Con-
zaga Prep School baseball team,
is not letting grass grow under
his feet. He is making elaborate
preparations for the coming sea-
son.
Although Orrel predicts a fair
season he may be surprised to
no extent as several high-ClasS
players are returning to the fold.
among them being Richard Hall.
Edward Quigley, Jim Donohue,
Dave James, Joe Keegin and
Raymond Grace.
Grace was the sensational fresh
man who played a major part in
the Puppies success last year. He
performed at various positions
with unusual ability. Mitchell
expects much from this lad when
the season rolls around.
Another diamonder whom the
StreeterS will depend much
upon is that redoubtable player,
Joe Keegin. who was considered
the pest all-rOund DaSeDaller III
the prep school circles the past
year.
Loses Two Stars
The team will be hard hit with
the loss of "Dickie" Fitzgerald
and Tommy Nolan, two corking
good players. These lads are
attending Eastern High School
at present. In Nolan the Con-
zaga nine lost a capable OUT
fielder and a real slugger.
Actual training for the Irish
will not commence until the third
week in March, but that's not
keeping Mitchell and his boys
from preparing for the occasion.
Play will begin against Business
High on April 5.

Bolton, it seems, has mastered
problem which threatened to
cut his big league career short. It
is catching high fouls.
None other than Patsy Char
rity, catcher coach of the Griff-
men. attestS to Bottoms great i'm
provement in this department af-
ter watching him in practice
drills here.
"The kid appears to have
conquered the fear and trouble
he used to have trying to catch
FOULS" said Charity. "He goes
after them with a little more
assurance and m axes the
catches much easier"
Every day since practice started
Bolton has asked Pat to "hit him
a few" Realizing that only an
abundance of practice would
make him better.
"The kid should show some
thing this year if worked more
Often," says Charity. "He is
the sort that takes everything
in. Last years presence with
the team did not harm him
even though he failed to get
in any games. 1 look for him
to be a big help to Johnson"
Bolton, if given more of a
chance, should be a pretty handy
man to have around this season.
There's no question as to his
ability to sock the ball. It's been
his misfortune to have guy like
Spencer on the roster.
Many have believed that the
youngsters throwing arm is not
as good as it might be. This,
more than his inability to catch
fouls, has kept him on the bench,
say the believers.
Bolton can throw, however, and
throw well once he gains conf
dence. Catching only at inter-
vals it is difficult for any catcher
to get the range Of second base,
no matter who he may be.
All he needs is a little more
work. He'll probably get plenty
in the exhibition games starting
soon. At which time he can
guide his own future as a big
Lacquer.

DC. FishtLaw
Is Proposed
By Black

Legalized boxing in the District
of Columbia is provided in a
measure planned to be introduced
in the House of Representatives
late today by Representative
Loring M. Black, Democrat, Of
!, New York. The measure provides
for an athletic commission COM
posed of three members to be
appointed by the President Of the
United States for terms of two
years. The commission is charged
with regulating boxing, sparring
and wrestling here.
Unlike any measure proposed
in Congress heretofore which
would legalize boxing, Mr.. Blacks
proposal provides that all receipts
of a local athletic commission
from licenses and permits, above
actual expenditures for the con-
duct of the commissions office,
be given to the Washington
Community Chest on January 2
of each year.
Ten Round Bouts
A secretary and not more than
two deputies are provided in the
measure and bouts would be
limited to 10 rounds except in
the case of world championship
bouts which could be staged up
to Is rounds in the discretion
of the commission.
The measure repeals Section
$40, Title 18, U. S. Code which
now prohibits payment of fight
ers or the charging of admission
to fights in the District of Co
lumbia. Heavy penalties are car
ried for fake fights and for
gambling on the outcome Of
fighting and persons under Is
years of age are prohibited from
witnessing bouts where admission
is charged as are persons under

in bouts conducted for profit.

Congressman Black is an ardent

fight law. His measure is pat
termed after the best features Of
the New York, Pennsylvania and
Illinois laws.
"MOre than half Of the
States of the Union have

Mr.. Black today. 1--WE have it

under one pretense or another
and while is has been con-
Quoted hereabOuts under very

be served. by a modern fight
