his worlds welterweight champion.
Jackie Fields, with Young Corbett
III, undefeated Fresno welter, to
obtaining a championship bout be-

min than the admittedly tough
Fresno boxer. He was expected to
appear before the meeting Of the
state athletic commission in Oak

arrange the McLarnin-F Fields go.
However. should the commission

HARR|GAN GETS
CIVIC H0NORS

Because of his services in the
interest of civic betterment, P. v.
bud" Harrigan was presented with
the United States Junior Cham
ber of Commerce distinguished
service award at an anniversary
banquet last night at the Califor-
mia hotel, attended by members of
the Ell Centro Chamber of Com
merce and Junior Chamber OF
Commerce
w. A. Tondro, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, presented
the small gold award, explaining as
he did so how a committee select
ed Harrigan for the honor Regard
ing Identification of a community
as one of its most worth while de-
velopmentS, Tondro said, the COM
mittee considered Harrigan's work
in planting trees on the San Diego
highway just west of Ell Centro as
one of the finest community SER
vices rendered during 1882.
The work of Harrigan is out
standing in this respect, and also
in relation to other tree planting
developments in Imperial Valley,
Tondro pointed out. During the
course of his discussion, he sug-
gester that the Junior Chamber of
Commerce promote tree planting
on East Main street, where such
project is badly needed.
Harrigan, answering a voclferous
burst of applause, was taken by
surprise. He had been kept in ig-
norance of the honor that was to
be bestowed upon him.
This is the first time the Ell
Centre Junior Chamber of Com
merce has taken part in the ami
versary banquet, inaugurated last
year by the national organization.
Before the award was made last
night those at the banquet listened
to radio speeches by Courtland
Otis, president of the United States
Junior Chamber of Commerce, and
Henry I. Hartman, president of
the United States Chamber OF
Commerce. After the radio talks
Josh Wilson, president of the local
organization, called the meeting to
order and turned the gavel over
to Jack Polzine, national counsel
lor, who introduced Tondro.
The award was followed by vo-
cal selections rendered by Edith
Eicke and Laura Redden, with Miss
Kedden at the piano.

NEARING END
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Jan. 21.-Hughie
Critz and Waite Hoyt, who we're
great baseball players once, were
nearing the close of their major
league careers today as the former
signed for another season with the
Giants and Hoyt shifted from the
Giants to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Both are past 30, and both are
susceptible to arm trouble.
Critz, until recently one of the
games greatest second basemen,
has taken a severe salary reduc-
ton and may be replaced by a
younger man. Hoyt, "a, world series
pitching hero, is desperately try
ing to remain in the big time by
trying out with the Pirates.
After trying unsuccessiuiiy to
trade Critz, manager Bill Terry
cut Hughes 1882 salary of about
$4,000 to something under $4,000.
Critz wrote from his home in
Greenwood, Miss, he was mighty
pleased with the contract
Hughes arm failed so badly in
1881 he was out most of the sea-
son, but he made a comeback last
year, playing in ISL games and
winding up with a batting average
of .276. His arm held up fairly well,
but he was by no means the great
second baseman who once fielded
for the Cincinnati Reds.
Many of the experts believe he
will be replaced this season by
Byrne James, of Dallas, Tex, a
newcomer. In that case re probab-
ly will be given an outright release.
Hoyt Going Down
This season will pe Tlugnie's 18th
in professional baseball and his
10th in the major leagues. He
played with Greenwood, Memphis
and Minneapolis and went to Gin
cinnati in 1924. He remained with
them until 1880 when John Nc
Graw brought him to the Giants.
For Hoyt, the shift to Pittsburgh
will be another lap in his down.
ward journey. The Giants released
the former "boy wonder" since the
close of the 1882 season. Bill Terry
signed him last June after the
Brooklyn Dodgers had set him
adrift. The Brooklyn release was
his second in 1882, the Philadelphia
Athletics having let him go in the
spring.
Hoyt tried hard with the Giants,
but the man who pitched in six
world series with the New York
Yankees seemed burned out. The
hop was gone from his fast ball,
and he was forced to become a
