r xod because the injury occurs
while tie er1ploye is on a private
mission.
However, Mrs. F7eezer had tele-
phoned a grocery order to the store
and insisted on immediate delivery.
The store, according to the court
record, prided itself on prompt de-
livery so Mr.. Fleezer made the deliv-
cry at once on his own bicycle.
He took 10 minutes for lunch while
at home and was killed returning to
the store.
The opinion by Judge Posey Kline
held that I1eezer was injured while
engaged in his regular duties; that
the delivery was the same as any
other, since Mrs. Feezer paid reg
ular prices for the groceries and was
entitled therefore to the same con-
sideration as any other customer, and
that the fact that Mr.. Fleezer had
eaten a hurried lunch while at home
did not establish that he was not
on his regular duties for his en-
ployers.
Two judges dissented.

Twelve Cubs
Are Unsigned
BIZ United Press

By United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. Is Twelve
members of the Chicago Cubs
haven't signed their 1884 contracts
as yet, but none of them are hold
outs SO far as President William
Walker knows.
Babe Herman, outfielder, who was
a terrific disappointment to Chicago
fans last year, has had his salary
trimmed, but Cubs officials antici-
pate no trouble signing him.
The signed contracts of outf1elder
Riggs Stephenson and in1elder
Stanley Hack were received yeSter-
day, making the thirteenth and
fourteenth players to sign. The 9TH

Broadway boys got lost in the sub
ways and wound up in Great Neck,
Bayside and Coney Island. All the
Broadway boys know about subways
is that they are underground.
Out in front Of the hall, tired
eyed sandwich men walked up and
down with signs on their backs an
nOuncing the Friday night card at
the Garden. 1t was just as well
that Rckard couldn't have seen this
bit Of shoddy county fair exploita-
ton Of the great arena that was so
much a part Of him. 1t might have
disturbed his eternal sleep.
As for the fight, it was the famil-
lar story Of a washed-up veteran
who refused to believe he was
through, facing the inevitable
against rising youngster of IN
questioned ability. There was never
any doubt as to the outcome. At the
END all three officials agreed on Ross.
And even this was just a formality.
"PetroIle's ThrOugh"-HurIey
The formal announcement had
scarcely been made when Jack Hur-
ley, the slim, black-haired manager,
who has been with Petrolle ever
since the Italian began fighting,
walked around the ring and told the
newspaper men it was the old mans
last fight.
IF Hurley says it is, I guess it
is" mumbled Petrolle back in the
dressing-room. I guess he ought
to know"
BY comparison Petrolle was la
mentally slow and futile. His
swings were wild, he f1oundered on
his feet. at times he seemed be-
wildered as if he had forgotten just
what he ought to do. At intervals
he jOlted Ross with his heavy left
hook but the intervals were too
widely spaced to be effective.
Any fighter who beats Tony Can
zoneri twice must be good. And
Ross is very good. He has the speed
and stamina that go with youth; he
has pOise and agility; he has fine
courage and capacity for figuring
and fighting-his way out of
tough situations that stamp him as
a genuine thoroughbred.
So great was his speed that time
after time he hit Petrole four or
five punches before the old man
could get his hands up. He seldom
broke ground. He stood toe to toe
and Slugged with the old man. He
outboxed him easily. 1t was, in
short. an emphatic win for him.
There were no knockdowns, though
both battlers bled at the mouth.

BARRING OF NEGROES
MAY BE PARTY ISSUE
De Priest Fights Banning of Secre-
tary From House Restaurant.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The
dispute over whether Negroes
should eat in the house public res
taurant threatened today to de-
velop into an issue which may de-
eide where the Negro vote may be
cast in the next congressional cleo
ton.
Representative Oscar De Priest
(Rep., I'D, the Chicago Negro con-
gresham. said he would seek to
have the house decide in formal
vote the issue if the rules commit
tee failed to act on his resolution
permitting Negroes to eat in the
restaurant.
Conference with Minority Leader
Bertrand Smell was awaited by Mr..
De Priest before deciding what &C
ton to take. If Mr.. Smell approves,
Mr.. De Priest will make party
issue out of the affair.
Democrats generally are anxious
to avoid a vote fearing that if they
disapprove of the resolution, the
Negro voters will be firmly in
trenched in the Republican ranks.
