The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-03-06

The session vii ltake place in the rooms of the Public Utilities com mission in the state office building and will begin at 10 o'clock in the morning. The commission is per. fecting a report for the next Gen. eral Assembly which will recom- mend changes in the existing pauper laws, hence the conference on the 23rd.
 Chakerian In Charge
 Tn the past several individuals have been requested to sit in with the commission and give views on the proposed changes, but this is the first invitation to a large group. Dr Charles c. Chakerian, secretary and consultant of the commission, is in charge of the arrangements for the huge gathering.
 Four topics will be discussed. They are: Difficulties encountered in the administration of the settle fnent laws suggestions as to how present system might be improved; trends in outdoor poor relief -- the need for state grants-in to towns; prtN1sions for indoor poor relief = how will 1t be affected by the old age assistance system?: and improving the present methods of re- porting relief cases.
 Children's Fund
 In connection with the work of the local welfare department, today the names of ITO Waterbury chil- dren, who have been wards of the city, were shifted on to the relief rolls of the state welfare depart lnent. The board of finance and control. sitting in Hartford yester- day, approved the transfer which will mean 8 saving of $40,000 to this city. The children, now all in pri- vate homes, will not be changed around because of the shift. Wa terbury, in other words, has shifted expense to the state that has been Tightfully that of the state for many years. Waterbury was the only city in the state bearing such expense privately. The local welfare depart Inent will continue the routine work of watching out for the children, but under the new arrangement the state will pay seven-tenths of the cost of boarding the children and kho city will pay three-tenths.

RECEIVER ASKS
 FOR ALLOWANCE
Verdict on $5,OOO for Services of Attorney
 Gager Reserved

An allowance of &5,00O on &C., count of his services as receiver for the Almon o. Judd Co. owners of the Hotel Elton, was asked in superior court today by Attorney William W. Gager. Judge Frank P. McEvoy reserved decision on the pe- tition for an allowance.
 Attorney Gager told the court that he had not previously applied for an allowance because he wished the finances of the company to be in 6 better condition. The affairs of the hotel have shown material improvement" he said, and he be- lieves that an allowance to him at this time would not place any un- due burden on the concern.
 His work as receiver needed his attention almost daily, Attorney Gager said, and he has worked long hours for many days in managing the affairs of the receivership. Many times he had to work on Sundays, he stated. AlMRBl
 The affairs of the Almon c. Judd O., were considerably muddled when he took them over two years ego, he said, but improvement has been noted month by month. He furnished the court with records of the time that he has spent in di- recting the receivership and expen- ditures made.

The build-up of the fight has
struck two major points. First,
that Retzlaff, after years Of cam
paigning, has discovered a left that
works. Secondly, that Charles is
aiming to come out with only one
thought in mind-to rip over a his
tory making right, within the first
go seconds.
Left Won't Harm Joe
The belatedly discovered portside
punch is just one Of those things.
Charles probably will do no more
than touch Louis coffee colored
features with that weapon. The
one-shot wallop is something else
and it constitutes the only real rea-
son why somewhere between $50, 200
and 100000 will be laid on the line
for tickets. It's always possible
that a puncher could start one
that Joseph might not duck under
or ward off.
And while Louis is super boxer
and a super fighter he isn't super
man in the sense that he could not
be stopped. Retzlaff is a Slugger,
and if the miracle should happen
there would be an interesting story
to set down.
New Club Member
But none of these considerations
have affected the odds which say
three-to-one that Retzlaff joins the
Kayoed-by-Louis Club which in
cludeS such parties as MaximilIian
Baer, Primo "Satch" Camera,
Platinum Tusked Pauline Uzcudun,
and the impossible Mr.. Kingfish
Levinsky, and does so within the
space of three rounds.
Being very frank, one could set
down that Retzlaff doesn't 'look too
good" His workouts have been sew
eral notches under the inspiring
mark. He's displayed good bit of
earneStness in making use Of his
left hand, but this has mechani-
cal appearance rather than nat
ural one.

Nicholson, Wesleyan University
professor and officer of the national
association for more than Is years,
declared that public interest would
vanish and sports cease, if amateur
sport was killed"
He pointed out that extreme COM
petition between colleges having
wealthy alumni was a prelude to the
end of all football, and "it is APP
parent that the suggestion of the
Southeastern would not work"
There are 10 colleges associated
with the Southeastern Conference
which, he told student assembly,
voted "to give openly to athletes for
their athletic services enough aid
through loans, scholarships or work,
to meet all their legitimate expenses
of attending school.
'The reason given for this request
was the same given the association
80 years ago by Brown University
and others in deciding to allow their
athletes to play summer baseball
that every one was doing it anyway
and that hypocrisy should be ended.
Officially it is called recruiting
and substituting of athletes; actual
ly, it is paying athletes for their
services on the athletic fields"
