 Youth in the person of Tony shucco. . clever, willing boxer nina years Jacks junior, relegated the onetime heavyweight champion oi the world to the ranks of tho has beens before . capacity crowd of i6,000 ct the Garden last night.
 Only some desperate hanging-or by the 3a-year.old Squire of Chest nut Hill, coupled with his oppo- nents lack Of haymaking talents saved Jack from . knockdown oI two as the pride of the north end rallied furiously In the final two rounds of their ten.round affair tc get the unanimous mods of Referee Joe O'Oonnor end Judges Jim Montgomery and Frank Bowman.
 ghucco, who was defending hii New England heavyweight title stepped out to . slight lead through the first four rounds by means oi taunting left pokes to face and mldriff. Then, for four successive rounds, sharkey rallied. outweigh. ing his opponent io8 Ia to ie2 pulled into 9hucco and from ciose quarters got in . lot of damaging blows.
 Jack opened cuts around Tony's nose and both eyes, drove him into the ropes c couple of times, rocked him on his heels with Q solid right uppercut, but the pace was toe much. eharkey'g weary legs began tying up badly In the ninth and 9hucco, still strong despite hil earlier cuffing, sailed into the ex' dob with everything ho had. Twice In the tenth Tony seemed close to putting Jack down, but the veteran hung on to greet the bell on hia two feet.

Tn contrast with Jacks first comeback effort. ending In tho disqualification of Eddie tUnknown) Winston of Holyoke, last nights battle set well with the damned house.
 sharkey disagreed with the gen. eral verdict that he was washed up, He felt he had done woll to stay 10 rounds with . fifst.rAnk boxer, af- tor being out Of the ring more than two years. He indicated he'd keep right on training and Do back for more.

in Africa that are 20 tiny that their

Now, Unc' Billy had ccme over there
for the express purpose Of catching .

biggest of the flock right In front Of
him. Somehow Unc' Billy's appetite
wasn't what 1t had been. Somehow
he wasn't quite SO keen on . chicken
dinner at that minute. You see, that
Rooster was big and he looked . lot
bigger than he was. Not only that,
but he had an ugly look. Certainly
he showed no signs Of fear. Unc' Billy
didn't like the look In that Rooster's
eyes. It was . look thas seemed to
threaten trouble for some one, and
Unc' Billy had . feeling that he was
that some one.
Now. Unc' Billy can make himself
look very ugly and dangerous when
he tries. He has sharp teeth and
when he rolls back his lips in . snarl
it Is quite enough to frighten any one
not considerably bigger than Unc'
Billy. He did his very best this time,
but that Rooster wasn't to be fright
ened by looks. No, sir, he wasn't to
be frightened by looks. He suddenly
jumped at Unc' Billy and struck at
him with those spurs with which he
fights. It was Just Unc' Billy's good
fortune that those spurs did not strike
him.
Unc' Billy backed somewhat hastily.
He backed into the bushes. The
Rooster could not get at him there.
He walked back and forth along the
edge of the bushes glaring in at Unc'
Billy. The feathers on his neck stood
out. He put his head down and shook
those feathers. Unc' Billy snarled.
He snarled in his most ugly manner.
But even as he snarled he was back
ing away. He was backing toward the
old stone wall. When he was near
enough he turned and darted in be-
tween the stones.
You would have laughed could you
have seen that Rooster then. He
walked back and forth along the edge
of the bushes. stepping high. Then
he stopped, stretched his neck and
crowed. "Cock-a-doodle- -do-o-o." the
Rooster crowed. And all the hens in
the distance stopped to listen. Yes.
sir. they stopped their running about
to listen.
Meanwhile. Unc' Billy was keeping
himself out Of sight. and. somehow,
right at that time he didn't feel the

VALIDITY OF LABOR
ACT is CHALLENGED
New Hampshire Textile Plant
Denies Being Engaged in In.
terstate Commerce.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CONCORD, N H. February 21.-
The Cocheco Manufacturing Co. of
East Rochester challenged the con-
stitutionality of the national labor
relations act here yesterday in Federal
District Court
The company, seeking to have the
National Labor Relations Board ad-
judged in contempt, charged that in
setting date for a hearing of COM
plants by the United Textile Workers
Union, the board violated a permanent
injunction issued against the union
on February 7.
Judge George F. Morris granted a
temporary order enjoining the board
from holding the hearing scheduled
for today. He set February 81 for a
hearing on his order.
The court action resulted from labor
troubles at the Cocheco mills last year.
Horace A. Brouillette of Manchester,
organizer for the union. in complaints
to the board charged the Cocheco mills
had engaged in unfair labor practices
and had refused to meet with the
union for collective bargaining.
Stanley NJ Burns of Dover, counsel
for the mills, argued yesterday the
company was not engaged in inter-
state commerce, that the Employees
Protective Association rather than the
United Textile Workers Union repre-
sented a majority of the workers and
that the Wagner Connery labor act
was unconstitutional.
