BOYS PREFER GUN TO RING CLAIMS
 JACK O'BRIEN
By NEA Service

New York, March 17-There aren't many good fighters to- day, and the reason is that there IS too much gang Iife-says Philadelphia Jack O'Bricn, the old = time heavyweight wh Q fought Bob Fitzsimmons, Kid Mccoy, Tommy Ryan and a lot < Of other good men.
 Jack is running a gym here.
 A kid in my day used to be game enough to fight for a living" he sums 1t up. "He did- mt mind taking and giving Q punch to get somewhere. But too many of the kids to-day haven't the courage to battle someone else decently with ma. lures weapons. It's so much easier, they think, to stick up some law-abidlng party who doesn't happen to tote 6 gun.
 "I think that's one reason why there Is a lack of good young stcrs in the ring to-day. An other is that those who do try fighting aren't willing to put out 8 reasonable amount of labor to become first-class battlers."

 New York. March IS-CUP) - The brain, to which the Encyclo- paedia Britannica devotes some 20 pages, Is a very important item, whether one be a threshing ma- chine salesman, a congressman, a clerk in a fish hatchery or a ten his player.
 Today's essay, written, we assure you, only after the most careful thought. will deal with the import ance of the Noggin organ, as 1t is known technically, to a tennis player. That the brain is useful to tennis player we learned only yesterday, while watching Cliff Sutter of New Orleans defeat Frank final match of the national indoor championships.
 E We had always thought that all a tennis player needed was a pair of fiannels, long pair of legs and a winning smile. But Mir Sutter convinced us otherwise, for 1t was his brain, and his brain alone, that enabled him to dispose of Shields. If you'll listen. we'll explain.
 When Shields and Sutter began their match the former was in full form. He couldn't miss. His service came over the net like a bullet. His forehand drive was Tilden at his best. His backhand sought out the far corners for placements. His overhead kills struck with veloc- ity that sent them richocheting off into the balcony.
 Naturally. Sutter was helpless in front of such an attack. And this is where the brains business comes in-Sutter didn't try and do any, thing about it. In fact, he deliber- ately tried to put the ball in such a spot that Shields would be tempt ed to smash it with all his force.
 Shields bit. For two sets he smashed and dashed at top speed, with the result that when the third set came up he was tiring and ready to be taken. Shields was not smart enough to realize that Sut- ter was off his game. that his own

 New Orleans, March 18-A left handed jockey Is bringing a lot of nags home in front of the field with his unorthodox style of rid ing.
 He is Jockey Willie Moran, a neat riding lad who is one of the few southpaws ever to enter the racing game.
 Willie's advantage over the other jockeys is that he can whip his horse with his left hand. In this way he can get the most out of his mount without forcing 1t to swerve in toward the rail, which is often the case when horse is whipped on the right side.

c, B.

FLOUR DUST AIDS
 CORN GROWERS
Ear Worms Can Be Curbed By Use of Barium
 FluOsilicate

Wooster, O.(UP)-Contro1 of the damage done by corn earworms, matched on the silks of sweet corn can be effected by dusting the silks with q barium fuosilicate-fiour dust, according to Dr. Harry F. Dietz, economic entomoligist, who Is carrying on insecticide research work here.
 It is estimated by the U. s. Bu- reap of Entomoligy that the an- nual loss caused by this most de- structive insect enemy of corn amounts to $40.000,000 annually.
 The eggs are laid upon the green corn silks by the adult moths or miller" stage fthe ,in- sect. The young worms. or cater- pillars, first feed on the silks, which they follow as they proceed to attack the small and tender kernels of the ear. The kernels of the tips of the ears are devoured first, and later especially in small cared. susceptible varieties, the voracious worms mad devour most of the kenrels.
 Experiment shows that when the green silks of corn are dusted with barium fluosilicate, a non- arsenical compound, the young corn worms are killed as soon as they take their first meals.

Paris (UP)-The young women
 of France, dictators of the world
 of fashion, have voted against the
 masculine model which has swept
 the women of other European countries into trousers.
 The spectacle of bright young
 women tourists thronging the
 fashionable French places dressed in pants leaves the Frenchwomah cold. Miss France clings to her friils and furbelows. According to the French girls argument. in these times of finan- cial crisis it's a woman's duty to be more womanly than ever. Be. ing alluringly feminine, she will do much to dispel the worried lines from her man-friend's brow The Frenchwoman's mission in life Is to be pleasing to the oppo- site sex. The only way to achieve this object Is to be as feminine as possible. If she wears trousers she robs herself of much of her charm in the eyes of the menfoik

WATER VILE

At Saturdays inspection tour of the board of public works it was voted to alter the new renee on Huntingdon avenue so as to pro- vide better visibility for motor car vehicles approaching the street from the private risht-of-way which serves the Chase and Scovil companies plants and which is also used by residents in the northern section of Fairmount.
 The fence was constructed last winter in order to provide a safe passage for Fairmount residents, particularly children, passing over the river and railway. It elim- mated the hazards previously eX- isting which permitted easy access of children to the river and rail- road tracks, and provided badly needed wind breaker during the winter months.
 Since the construction of the fence, motorists have complained of several narrow escapes at the opening leading to the right-of-way and it is hoped that the alterations will remove the hazards.
