SzABO WILL
MEET Lutte
HERE FRIDAY

After Sander Szabo's decisive VIC
tory over Ted Christy last week,
Promoter Contos Immediately be-
gan looking around for greater
competition for the handsome Hun
garian, and this morning announc-
ed that he has been fortunate
enough to sign one of the best
heavyweight Wrestlers to campaign
on the west coast and one of the
foremost contenders for Jim Lon
dos crown, in the person of Nick
Lutte. These two will meet in a
two out of three fall bout, with
one and a half hour time limit.
In view of the success of last
weeks double main event billing, it
will be repeated this Friday night,
and in the other half of the double
wind-up, Jagat Singh, who has
proved such tremendous success
here, will meet Harry Johnson, of
Sweden, in a one fall match, but
with an hour and half time limit.
A preliminary of high calibre and
another special event, both of
which will be announced later, will
round out the card to be presented
Friday night at the City Limits
arena.
This will be the fourth card pre-
sented since the revival of the
mat game here. Each succeeding
card has been better than its pre-
decessor and this one should be no
exception.
Nick Lutte appearing here for
the first time under the banner
OF Promoter Contos, is we'll known
to Imperial Valley fans. This rug
ged German American has beaten
most of the top-notcherS of the
game, is considered a stumbling
block in the way of challengers for
the title and is very pleasing and
sensational mailman. Szabo's work,
therefore, is cut out for him and
unless we are very much mistaken
fans here will witness one of the
best and most scientific bouts yet
presented.
Singh's opponent, although not
as we'll known, is the brother of
Thor Johnson, the only man in
wrestling who outweighS "Man
Mountain Dean. Harry Johnson,
although not as heavy as his BROTH
er, is no mere weakling or feather
weight, tipping the scales at about
900 pounds. He has just come
west after a sensational trip to the
east where he became immensely
popular in a very short time, and
is no set-up for the popular Hindu.
Singh, incidentally, is spending
the week in the valley, with some
of his countrymen, and is daily
working out with some of them
who formerly were wreStlers in
their native land, in preparation
for this Friday night IS bout,

Alaskan Project
Is Denounced By
Ex-CongreSSn1dn

WASHINGTON, May 13. UP) -
The Alaskan valley to which 1000
northwestern farmers are being
sent with government subsidy was
described today by Cyrenus Cole,
former Iowa congressman, as a
"de luxe Siberia" where the colon
lists will die or fail"
Cole charged in a letter to Hen
ry A. Wallace, secretary of agri-
culture that semi Soyietized
America is emulating Russia in
sending victims of it's professional
dreamers to a de luxe Siberia
called Alaska
He pleader with Wallace to halt
the migration and said the farm
ers will find in the Matanuska val
ley only delusion scant soil and q
battle against the elements which
they cannot win.
Cole visited Alaska in 1923 with
a congressional committee. Wal
lace's father, Henry c. Wallace,
then secretary of agriculture, went
there the same summer with Pres
ident Harding. Cole, a Republican,
was fifth Iowa district congress-
man from 1923 to 1881.
The "altruistic dreamers" who
thought of migrating northwest
farmers to Alaska should be COM
PEELED 'to go and live with them
and hibernate with them" Coles

LOS ANGELES, May 10. UP) -
Alonzo Goodwin, 32-year-old Negro,
was held in Jail today after he had
been saved from a crowd of infU-
rated citizens who threatened to
lynch him for allegedly stabbing
policeman.
Leonard E. Mcdonald, 80, the po-
liceman, was in a serious condi-
ton in a hospital with knife

gather and stopped when he saw
they were menacing the Negro. He
told Goodwin to back against a

was being attacked by one OF the
crowd, drew knife and slashed at

GIANTS HAVE
STRONG LEAD
IN NATIONAL
BY LAWTON CARVER
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 13.-The major
league baseball races aren It a month
old today but it's about time rivals
OF the Giants begin some plain
and fancy viewing-with- alarm in
the direction of New York.
Unceremoniously battered around
in their early play, winniny only one
of their first four starts, the Giants
have now stepped out so far ahead
of National League rivals that they
are established, just as training
camp form indicated, as the team
to be beaten for the circuit cham
pionship.
Thanks to four-hit pitching
performance by young Leroy Par
melee and his timely work at bat,
the Giants tailed their 14th vic
tory yesterday in their 18th decided
game. Parmelee just missed a shut
cut against Pittsburgh by lapse
in the eighth when he walked
Pitcher Red Lucas when the bases
were full. But he rallied nobly and
the Giants won, 81.
Parmelee's performance was
echoed at Boston where Lonnie
Warneke pitched and batted the
Cubs to Al triumph.
Brooklyn stayed firmly in second
place, scoring its 18th victory by
topping Cincinnati, 81. The fourth
place Cardinals made clean sweep
over lower division clubs by noSing
out Philadelphia, 10 to 8.
ST. Louis Browns won the only
American League game played, 3 to
2, over Boston.
The Browns win lifted them
from the American League cellar to
seventh place, the idle Athletics
dropping back to the bottom. At
the same time the Boston loss
made fourth place a tie between the
Red Sox and the rain-out Wash
ington Senators.

DISTURBANCE

JACKSON. Calf. May 13 W.P) -
Eight men were arrested and many
Others were recovering today from
minor injuries as the result of
violent clash between 200 alleged
Communists and sheriffs deputies
near here.
O1 the eight taken into custody,
four were later released on bail.
The gave their names as Ed Bower
and James Ryan, San Francisco:
Tony Estrico, San Benito, and Ray
Blttinger, Crockett. The others said
they were John Watkins and Joe
kessler, Vallejo; Phil Castanato,
jackson and Lee Tucker, Plymouth.
Authorities said although the
group marched on Jackson from the
San Francisco bay region purported-
" TO assist striking miners of the
Amador county mother lode section.
many miners joined in a posse OF
citizens and deputy sheriffs in re-
pulsing the attack"
Sheriff George w. Lucotts depu-
ties were forced to resort finally to
tear gas to disperse the mob, which
arrived in so or so automobiles and
joined picket lines of striking
miners. The miners have picketed
the famous Argonaut mine and
other Mother Lode workings for
several months. Operators were
working the mines with non-union
workers.
Authorities said trouble first oc-
CURED at Martel station, two miles
from here. Arthur Warren, repre-
senting the Amador district miners,
told the group to go home and leave
this problem TO u.s." Members of
the mob who claimed to represent
the International Longshoremens
association repeatedly cursed War
rem.
Sheriff Lucitt was booed when he
said he desired no trouble. The men
purportedly insisted on entering the
Argonaut line.
Authorities employed tear gas
bombs at this point. Rocks and fists
flew and many were nearly over
come by tear gas. Harry Peters,
miner, suffered broken jaw and
head cuts in the melee.
The group finally retreated to
their cars and turcks, in which it
was presumed they came here from
San Francisco.
Although the situation appeared
to be quiet today, and further
trouble was not anticipated, extra
forces of deputies were maintained.

WOMEN TAKE
Up B At TIE
AGAINST LONG

WASHINGTON, May 10. U.P)-
Louisiana women volunteered today
to come to the rescue of the senate
in the battle between adminiStra-
ton leaders and Sen. Huey P. Long.
They suggested the senate might
be afraid of Senator Long. but as
serted positively they were not. Not
a single senator dareS to brave his
blusterings, - they said.
The offer was made in a letter
signed by Hilda Phelps Hammond
veteran foe of Long and chairman
of the women S committee of Lou
isiana. The committee has waged
a long battle in Louisiana against
the senator.
"Slowly but surely it is dawning
upon the American people," the
letter said, "that the senate is
afraid of Huey Long" He has, the
letter continued, terrified the SEN
ate into submission.
Mrs. Hammond noted that the
senate today, on the insistence OF
Mr. Long, is to hear charges made
by Mr.. Long against Mr.. Farley
POSTMASTER James A. Farley, and
that he called on the senate to
"face the music'' and to rid the
public service of monstrous fig
ure of plunder, of grab and take. "
She asked the senate to insist
that Long now face his music. She
said the committe was ready to
prove a senate committee report
that Long "designed and executed
the vicious fraud that resulted in
the election of his colleague, Mr.
Overton.
After asserting Long had the
Louisiana legislature under his
thumbs, the letter asked:
Senators-Are you, too afraid
of Huey Long?'

wounds gave a meager account of
the attack before he died in a hos
pital.
Mars started it," he said. "He
jumped first. I might have eX-
pected that. But it was Menelik
who did the most damage. I would
never have imagined that. I trust
ed him and treated him like a
pet"

beasts appeared nervous and un-
willingly obeyed Ziegler's COM
mandS when he stepped into the
cage.
HE stumbled when he tried to
make Mars obey an order" said
Charles Gay, operator of the farm.
"The beast leaped down from a pc
destal and started clawing and
chewing him"

roaring, followed the first enraged
beast and started to claw Ziegler.

Cusumano, who was standing be-
tween the inner and outer cages,
told how he saw ziegler disappear
under the pile of bowling, snarling
animals.
