RING PSYCHOLOGY
UNPO|SED JOHN |.
Corbett, Pioneer in Science,
Used Foes Tricks to Cow
Him Before Fight.
BY DILLON GRAHAM,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


n JEW ORLEANS, La, February 18
nj Forty years ago the long in
vincible John L. Sullivan was
felled by a sprightly young
California bank clerk, the heavyweight
championship passed from a slugger to
a boxer, and New orleans was the ring
capital of the world.
It was in the Olympic Club amphi-
theater here that Jim Corbett, who
died in New York today, won the
heavyweight crown from the burly Sui
livan. a rowdy, broken-down copy of
the former Boston strong boy.
More than 10000 fight enthusiasts
crowded around the arena on Septem-
Der 7, 1892, as the young challenger,
fighting on a ring floor of reddish
brown earth from the Mississippi River
bottom, packed hard to prevent slipping
knocked out Sullivan in 81 rounds.
Boats moved up and down the Mis-
sissippi bringing their cargo of boxing
fans, while special trains poured into
the city on the eve of the battle. Never
before had such interest been aroused
over ring contest. Papers from all
telegraph wires hummed through the
building as Corbett and Sullivan fought
their furious fight.
CORBETT, who preceded Sullivan
~ into the ring, grinned as the cham
pion drew a rouSing ovation as he
clambered through the ropes. Sullivan
plopped down on his stool and fixed
his deadly stare on Corbett, the wither-
ing scowl that had beaten many of his
opponents before he lifted fist.
Corbett's eyes met Sullivan's and
Gentleman Jim looked back with a
supercilious smile. Johns reaction
showed Corbett that his first act of
psychology had worked.
Then he beat John at his own game
again few moments later 1t was Sui
l1van'S custom, when he met his foe in
the ring for instructions, to almost
break hand with his heavy grip. But
this time it was Corbett who enraged
John by crushing his hand and throw
ing it aside.
MAD as bull, Sullivan charged upon
AZ Corbett at the gong. jim slid
away and for two rounds contin-
ued to stay just out of the champions
reach as Sullivan spent his energy
rushing after him.
Then Corbett slipped in and out,
punching Sullivan before the bulky
champion could get set for one of the
murderous blows for which he was ia
nous.
Time and high living, along with lit
tie training, began to tell on Sullivan.
He was landing few punches and Cor
bett was hitting often with blows that
took their toll Of the title holders
strength.
Twice in the twenty-first round Sui
llvan went down for short counts, but
the last time he couldn't raise up and
the crown passed to Corbett, the gen.
tlemen who brought science, psychol-
ogy and more reSpectability to the ring

Spring Weather Is

The warm weather enjoyed through
out the Priest Rapids valley during the
past few weeks has been made more
unusual by the reports OF snow, floods
and storms in other parts Of the state.
On the coast, severe floods caused by
unusual rainfall have threatened
number of towns and have already
caused number Of deaths. East OF the
mountains, snow is now covering the
ground in most sections, and some
places are also threatened with floods
Despite an unusual amount of rain

WASHINGTON ALMOST FREE
OF TUBERCULOSIS CATTLE

Tuberculous cattle have contributed
to the death rate of persons in the
United States as shown by sta1lselcs'
according to DR.. Robert Prior, Super
visor Dairy and Livestock DIVISION,
washington State Department OF Agrl-
culture.
"The death rate in Indiana IN l9Oo,
before tuberculin testing OF cattle was
inaugurated, was ITS per 100000 popu-
lation," said DR.. Prior "but was reduced
to So per 100000 population by 1882.
The incidence of tuberculosis in cattle
during the same period was reduced
from 4.6 per cent to 9 of one per cent.
"In our own state" continued DR..
Prior tuberculosis among cattle is now
reduced to the minimum, 81 out OF the
80 counties being free from tubercu-
losis, the other two counties being In
process of testing. BY April l, 1884,
we expect to have the entire state free
and accredited as such by the Federal
Government and State authorities. This
situation is in striking contrast to our
record in 1925, when the test in some
counties showed 12.5 per cent of the
entire cattle population to be infected
In view of the statistics, such reduction
to free area cannot fail to have a
marked effect upon the incidence OF
tuberculous infection in the human
family and be a factor in the steadily
declining death rate from tuberculosis
in Washington.
ct wish to acknowledge the coopera.
ton we have enjoyed from the Wash
ington tuberculosis Association, and t.
recommend their Christmas seal sale tx
the general public as a means OF fl
nancing their humanitarian work.

Is Asked By
Organization
WOULD REDUCE GOVERNMENTAL
COSTS BY SIMPLIFICATION
SCHEME

The Younger generation OF the state
is stealing the spotlight on the political
stage with proposal for consolidation
of city, county and state governments
which they say will reduce the cost
of government approximately SO per
cent.
The simplification plan is being ad-
vanced by the New Order of Cincin-
natus, statewide political organization
of men between 81 and 35 years Ralph
B. Potts, Seattle, is commander OF Gin
cinnatus, which is non-partisan.
Their plan is to reduce the number
of offices by abandoning county lines
and dividing the state into ten or
twelve large districts. Port districts,
irrigation districts and other forms OF
special tax districts would then be
merged with the enlarged district, they
said.
Cities within districts would retain
their form of government, but would
be limited in the amount Of taxes they
could levy. Spokane, Tacoma and Sc
attic would be separate districts.
MANY of our cities and counties are
facing actual insolvency because OF
the high cost of government" Potts de-
clared. "Such a plan to eliminate du-
plicating functions is inevitable II we
are to save them and our homes"
He added that the consolidation OF
certain offices and elimination OF du-
plicating functions would save approx
imately SO per cent.
"Our form of local governments has
not kept up with the times POTTS
asserted. "They are product OF horse
and buggy days. They need thorough
modernization."
The young men plan that the dis
tricts be governed by an elected board
of five administrators, who would also
serve as conservators to liquidate pres
ent indebtedness. The chairman and
executive secretary would receive sal
aries and the other three members
would serve without compensation.
"This will eliminate professional poll
ticians and should attract higher type
of citizen" Potts said.
Included as a major feature Of Gin
cinnatus' plan is unified state police
, force to supplant the numerous sher-
/ ifs. constables, fire wardens, and even
5 tually city police. The troopers would
l be stationed at central points, and radio
directed from district headquarters.
The New Order of Cincinnatus was
4 organized in Seattle several months age
to encourage young men IN pollclal
government, and has grown so rapidly
s that posts are now being formed II
