see governor Alfred Landon's pres
idential hackers active in the cap
ture of Minnesota for the Kansas
chief executive. State Senator Roy
Crowley, of St James, will be in
charge with Harry Clarkson OF
Minneapolis as chief aid. Senator
Crowley is in telephone communi-
cation with Governor Landon and
says that he is " rarin' to go". Sen
ator Crowley is also credited with
designs on the position of Republi-
can national committeeman now
held by Senator Claude H. Mac

Kenzie will not be a candidate for
reelection.

A fairly safe prediction is that
Frank B. Kellogg will be one of
the delegates-at-large from Mime
sofa to the coming Republican
national convention at Cleveland,
if he wants it. The honor is re-
garded as a we'll deserved one. An
other mentioned for delegate honors
is Harry Rasmussen of Austin. A
third is Thos. N. McCabe of Duluth,
Republican state chairman.

Congressman Harold Knutson of
the Sixth district has taken over
the job of delivering Republican
Minnesota to those behind the presi-

Borah of Idaho. There is no ques-
ton but what the Idaho salon has
many admirers in the Gopher state,
but securing a delegation commit
ed to his candidacy is another
thing. National convention dele
gate talk just now runs heavily
to Colonel Frank Knox of Chicago
with Governor Alfred Landon of
Kansas a second. In the minds of
some, the Borah candidacy is re
garded in the light of an Eastern
play.

Two We'll Matched Waterbury Bouts
 On Y. D. Program

With final matchmaking arrange ments completed last night, all that now remains is good weather to make the Yankee Division Veterans sssociatio amateur boxing program tomorrow night in Buckingham hall. the success 1t should be according to the battles that have been lined up by Matchmaker Jack Cleary.
 Promising
 Two all-Waterbury battles that should be productive of plenty of fistic fireworks are the Frankie Buff Pete Alberts mitt-slinging and the earlier bout which will show Dick Turcotte, the Leavenworth high school lad in three round glove duel with Frankie Marinelli of the north end. Both of these north and south" meetings vii be accompanied by plenty of cheers fro mthe admirers of the lads while Oakville will be deserted for a few hours as its contingent of fans has a vocal workout in behalf of Petey Alberts whose two slam-bangings with Spec Wiley of Union City gave near capacity crowds some- thing to cheer about on the last two I'D programs.
 Top Spot Feature
 Then there is scheduled three rounder featuring Charley Leonard of Willimantic and Jimmy DeCosta of New York which is something to look forward to If you know your amateur boxers. Emil Etter of Brooklyn and Tony Sluovak of New Haven. Paul Warren of Meriden and New Haven's Joe Cooper are other bouts which have been arranged for the occasion. From Willimantic Sam Maltempo and George Hosey will come to town for bouts with Dave Meyers of New Haven and Nat Ko!in of New York. The Hosey- -Ko- lin bout should be a good one from start to finish.
 Women will be admitted at half price, Matchmaker Cleary an- nounced while tickets for the event which can be bought at George Null ligan's restaurant on Phoenix ave- rue and Joe's tavern in Naugatuck are going well enough to anticipate a good, big crowd, If fair weather prevails tomorrow night at 8:30 O. clock.

BROUILLARD ARM INJURY MAY END COMEBACK PLAN
ROssi Bout Off - Several Months Treatment May
 Be Needed for Cure

Boston, March l2.--(UP).--An inc jury to his left arm has forced southpaw Lou Brouillard of Wor- cester, former world middleweight and welterweight champion, to can- eel. his scheduled bout with Johnny Rossi of Worcester at Boston Gar den, and will keep Brouillard out of the ring for an indefinite period, the United Press learned today.
 Brouillard's heavy-work arm went bad on him in his training for the Rossi bout, originally scheduled for March 6 but postponed because of a supposed eye cut Lou suffered in one of his workouts. Now 1t is dis- closed that Brouillard has been sent to half dozen specialists because of the ailing arm.
 DiscOuraging
 Exact nature of the injury has not been determined, 1t was under stood, but it is believed to be the result of repeated blows taken on the left arm in blocking punches. It Wdo ICCdllCu JIluO Fi hSiO OA AOWS'b leading New England welterweight some years ago, was forced out of the ring permanently by similar condition.
 One member of the Brouillard camp said that 1t was hoped that the ailment had been noticed in time so a layoR of several months, with heat treatments, messages and the like, would restore punch to the arm and avert necessity of an op- eration.
 Brouillard's disability comes at a time when he was pointing back to- ward the peak of the middleweight division, after European invasion during which he lost close de- vision to Marcel Thil, French claim ant, and lost to Thil on protested "foul' in a return match.

nG EBAINM NAOM~A AhA United Press Stan CoFrespondent.) Copyright, 1036, by United Press)
 Boston, March i2.-(UP)-Bills and coins are piling up in the carln- paign chest needed to send the track and field division of Amer icas Olympic athletes to Berlin.
 William J. (BilD Bingham, chair. man of the United ststes Olympic track and field committee, said to- day that there has been an "en-.l couraging" response to appeals for contributions. He expressed assur-e ance that the S43O00 that must be collected to pay the expenses of the runners, jumpers and weight men would be on hand by July lS.
 The Lineup
 Bingham, Harvard's athletic di- rector, said there were four main sources of revenue, as follows:
 1. Donations from the gate re- ceipts of various club and intercol- legiate track meets.
 2. Gifts from athletic clubs.
 5. Individual contributions.
 1. The gate from the final, Olym- pic tryouts at New York in July Y
 The final tryouts, a virtual dress rehearsal for the American forces, are expected to provide Q gate of $25,000 to $30,000 for the olympic fund, said Bingham, land the three remaining sources should provide at least $18,000 and put us over the top"
 "The various indoor track meets have sent us off to good start" Bingham said. By giving us Q per- centage of the gate receipts. Among meets that have contributed to tine fund were the National A. A. U. championships, Knights of Colun- bus games, and I e. 4-A games, all held in New York, and the Boston A. A. games and the recent Har- vard-Princeton Dartmouth Cornell meet held in this city. We also col- lected tidy sum at the K. of c. games here.
 Promising
 "The track meets, both indoors and outdoors, will continue to swell our fund. For instance, in the mid- dle west the big ten have promised us 50 per cent of the gate of their forthcoming indoor meet and will contribute something from their outdoor games as well. The various relay carnivals also have pledged shares of their gates. To name some. there are the Penn relays, the Kan sas relays and the Drake relays.
 Most of the larger athletic clubs throughout the country will make their usual donations, clubs such as the New York Athletic club, the Millrose A. A. of New York, the Meadowbrook club of Philadelphia, the Chicago Athletic club and the Olympic club of San Francisco"
 Private contributions have boosted the fund appreciably Bingham said. He said he and his Ii associates on the track and field committee alone had secured 30 subscriptions to date, many of them substantial.
