POLICE DEMAND
PUBLIC AID IN
K|DNAP WAR

CHICAGO, Aug. U.N.S).
An appeal to the public to CO.
operate in a great drive against
kidnapers was broadcast today by
the 300 delegates to the annual
convention of the International
Association of Police Chiefs.
President Alfred Seymour, Of
Lansing, Mich, pointed out that
the police must have the COM
plete confidence Of persons figur-
ing in kidnapping cases.
In many instances the crimi-
nails are successful because initial
threats were not reported i'm
mediately or due to lack of CO.
operation with the police by rela-
tives of kidnap victims.
Spotlight on kidnapping
kidnapping, because of its alarm
ing spread in recent months, oc-
cupied the spotlight at the meet
ing of police chiefs from all sec
tions of this country, Canada and
Europe.
The afternoon session today
was to be devoted exclusively to
the subject, with Prof. Charles
Merriam, of the department Of
political science at the University
of Chicago, the main speaker.
DR., Carleton Simon, New York
CriminologiSt, advanced the theory
that if ransom money we're more
difficult to obtain the practice
would abate. DR.. Simon suggest
ed it be made illegal to pay a
ransom.
u. s. Offers Aid
The police chiefs were assured
whole-hearted cooperation of the
United States Bureau of Investi-
cation by j. E. Hoover, head of
that department.
In a paper read to the conven-
ton by Chief Inspector James
Eagan, Hoover advocated more
stringent laws governing sale of
firearms, adequate equipment for
police, a halt to abuse of the
parole system by confirmed Grim
inals, and a greater willingness
on part of the public to report
all crimes.
D. S. Leonard, Michigan State
police captain, reporting on radio
in police work, envisioned tn e
day when powerful police radio
stations will provide instantane'
GUS transmission of important po-
lice intelligence the length and
breadth of the land, and when it
will be possible to transmit finger
print data with the same speed

New Orleans (UP)--How does II feel to pitch q no.hit, no.run game
 Fred Johnson, daddy of the New orleans Pelican pitching staff' says
 He performed bascball's "hole. In.one" recently in n game be' twen the PelLcans and Birmingham Barons, Southern league teams. New Orleans won, c to O.. and ,tohnson's name was added to bafe- balls list Of immortals who nave achieved the difficult feat.
 But 1t takes luck--pienty of luck" added the veteran pitcher who has seen l5 years service on the mound.
 "It's Q thousand to one shot, ' he said. "Too many little elements 20 into a basehit. And that's why | say that q pitcher has to be lucky to pitch n no-hit game.
 "An easy roller, on the hit and run, might go through the posi-. ton of the man covering second base. There's your no-hit and run baseball game"
 The game with Birmingham Johnson said. was his first league "No-hitter," but in the spring oi 1923, when he was with the Giants. he pitched two no-hit ex. hibition games against Toledo and Indianapolis.
 In the Birmingham game. John son not only performed spectacu' larly on the mound, but he con. tributed three or four sensational bits of infielding to cut down run. ners on what would have been in. field hits.

 IN BOSTON BOUT

Boston, Sept 7.-tUP)-Tony Shucco, Boston boxer who dc. serted the light roavyweight d. vision to seek recognition as q heavyweight contender, took a large stride toward his goal last night when he stopped the veter- an Tuffy Grifii1hs of Chicago in the fourth roufo of their gchcd- uled Hereunder at Mechanics building.
 The bout ended with / Tuffy draped helplessly over the ropes where Shucco had placed him with Q right to the jaw. Griffiths sec- onds threw q towel into the ring, acknowledging defeat and saving their man from q certain knock out. Tuffy had been on the floor twice in the fourth round, once for a count of seven from a. right hook to tho jaw, and again for Q four- count with left to the chin.
 One. Sided
 Boxing masterfully, Shucco out classcd his opponent from the start hitting and jabbing him almost at will and nullifyinG Griffiths' ef- forts with an impenctrable de- fense. So fast did Shucco box, that Tuffy was bewildered most of the time he was in the ring.
 Tuffy sought to offset his tor mentors speed and boxing with bulllike rushes. but was severely punished when he got in range.
 Shucco weighed TIT, and Grif- fiths 1S7.

 Most of the boxing writers who visited the champions camp a' Lake Swannanoa, N. l.. yesterday left with the feeling that Ross ei- ther had m "off day" or lacks the class generally expected of q light. weight king. CanZoneri, on tht other hand, was impressive In hls exhibition at Pompton Lakes, N. J
 Similar
 Ross, the 23.year-old Hebrew from Chicago's ghetto looks much like Canzoncri, both being dark. haired, swarthy. wide-faced and having Jack Dempsey brows. Then style of fighting is much the same in that both employ various types of milling; both have excellent lcf, jabs and hooks. and dynamite 1T appears faster. particularly on the defensive. Ross seems an open tar get for left jabs and hooks to the face yesterday in boxing two rounds with Patsy Pasculi of New York and Joe Rivers of Los Angeles.
 Both Ross and CanZoneri dem. onstrated they could uncork kick when needed. Ross, fioored Pascul with hard right to the jaw. and Canzoneri dropped one of his three partners. Lou Lombardi, with a sizzling left hook to the chin. Both were using 10 ounce training gloves.

Trying Campaigns
 The coaches face trying cam paigns in filling the gaps with second Nnd third stringers from last year and the greatest Of soph- on1ores.
 Harry stuhldreher, Nillanovas mentor, seems to have fared the best of the three coaches. lie has some fine material coming up anu retains more men from last sea son's team that do Harvey Har- man. the Red and Blue tutor, or "Pop" Warner, Temples new foot ball instructor, who st regarded as tbe premier coach of the present day gridiron, .
 Warner will have a few leftoVers from last year, but, as whole, he will have to depend largely upon the new men, He has group of second year men, but he will face the task of teaching them A new manner of play. And It may not be until late in the fall that his team wiu grasp the system Wnd round into winning shape.
 Coaches Watch Warner
 His experiment will he watcher with keen interest, for the old toN of the gridiron has reputation for accomplishing the impossiple and his spectacular style Of oneh- siye football wil lbe looked for' ward to with expectation.
 Whltey Randour, one or tho shiftiest and heetest backs In the east last season, will attend to Stuhldrehers offensive chores anu several veterans will plug up the holes, While the former pilot or the "Four Horsemen' will have to deveiop a machine, still he, has fewer obstacles than his rivals Tn
 POD Warner will probably have to develop a new baekheld, while new ends, a center and tackles will also have to be discovered.
