SARRON BEATS INGRAM
Continues Lightweight Success In
1o-Round Decision

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND. Va, Dec. 21.-Petey
Sarron's invasion Of lightweight ranks
still is uninterrupted, the former world
featherweight champion winning his
second start since losing the 126-pound
crown to Henry Armstrong by regis
tering a decision over Ray Ingram of
Washington, D. c., in 10-round bout
here last night.
Barely scaling under the lightweight
limit, weighing 1912 pounds, the hairy
Sarron took six hard-fought rounds by
decisive margins, split three even and
dropped one, the second Sarron was
half pushed and half punched to the
floor in the second round, but imme-
diately bounced to his feet.

Ivan the Terrible.

THE only other notable item Of the
evening was the work of Ivan
Nedomatsky. In { burst Of originality
some unidentified sports writer dubbed
him Ivan the Terrible" when Nedo-
matsky was fighting for the University
Of Maryland and winning three South
ern Conference titles AS in the case
of most masters. the sports writer
lived a few years before his classic
was appreciated. Ivan does seem to be
terrible, once tossed into the pro
ranks.
He fought one Hunter Crostic of
Richmond, a thin young man with a
lantern jaw. Mr.. Burton Hawkins,
The Stars boxing expert, is authority
for the statement that Mr.. Crostic has
been fighting for year and a half
as pro. For once you have to doubt
the veracity Of Mr.. Hawkins because,
how can q fellow get 80 bad In only
q year and half?
Ivan the Terrible knocked him
down in four Of the six rounds
and twice in the seventh. It
Was that kind Of = fight.
But, withal, Ivan did not look good
until he was credited with tossing .
$40 bill into q Christmas fund collec-
ton before the main bout went on.
The more technical observers noted
several flaws which they described as
important. 1t seems that Mr. Nedo-
matsky has fair left hook, but that
he drops his right hand when he
throws it. That vas one complaint
you remembered. Anyway, Ivan got
hit lot by q guy who would have
trouble hitting stray Christmas
shopper at Thirteenth and F streets
Besides Mr.. Crostic couldn't use his
right hand much. It seemed he stuck
the thumb of that fin into q meat
grinder and the contraption worked.
You should have seen the thumb
before the fight and then after. It
would seem they would do something
about . thumb like Crostic's =. or
even . fighter like him. !

Stella Bothers Jeffra,

oAShA0 ASVShCiS JChEd.
A RMANDA STELLA set himself in
solid with local fans by carrying
the feature eight-round fight to JEFF
fra, and profited to the extent of lead
ing the champion through six rounds.
Those last two rounds, however, swung
the verdict to the somewhat panicky
Baltimore bantamweight.
sicilia's persistent if not convincing
punching aroused keen hatred in
Jef1ra. who demonstrated his lack of
control in the sixth round by aiming
at Armanda's chin while the Chicago
lad still was on his knees after slip
ping. Harry alternated left hook
and right cross, however, to floor
Stella twice cleanly for no counts and
win the seventh session easily.
Jeffra's right eye was sliced open
in the fourth round and blood flowed
rather freely from that point, as did
fouls. Both battlers employed a va
ried assortment of butting, heeling and
low punching, forcing Referee Eddie
La Fond to take the second round
from Jeffra and the fourth from
Stella. La Fond was forced to pry
them apart at the end of the third
round when they ignored the bell and
continued their bitter feud.

enth he played a sort of a jack-in the
box game with Amanda. He knocked
him down, right on the seat of his
trunks, and when Stella got up he
knocked him down again. He loafed
through the eighth and last round and
the referee and two judges gave the
light to Jeffra unanimously.
Jeffra Has Tough Luck.
MOT being a veteran picker OF resin
from seats of pants, you wouldn't
know if Mr.. Ross was right when he
said it would take SILICA two weeks to
do the job. All you know is that Mr..
Jef1ra is the better fighter of the two
boys and that Stella went into the
fight the hard way and come out of it
the same way. And it was a good fight.
Jeffra isn't outstanding as
champion. He was trying to
crack pretty tough nut and at
times the champ looked bad.
But jeff hits hard for a 1872
FOUNDER. and he Is game.
Maybe Washington isn't his town.
The first time he fought here Jeffra
broke an ankle. The next time he
broke hand. Last night he came
up with an eye-cut which will keep
him on the shelf for a few weeks.
I mean, Washington's climate, or
something, just doesn't agree with
Mr.. Jeffra's health.

ployed. 1t may we'll be the last,
for the nation possessing the most
deadly airplanes and their deadly
weapons will prove the victor And
that proba bability-almost certainly
will differentiate any future struggle
from the trench warfare and the sink
ing of ships at sea which constituted
the main tactics of l914-18. There
fore, the Wisest nations will seek to be
impregnable in the skies.
The United States in the future will
wisely require aviation service of all
the officers graduated at West Point
and Annapolis as we'll as most of the
enlisted men. If, happily. there will
be no next war the personnel trained
in aviation can be transferred to COM
mercial flying, and fighting aircraft
can be converted into carriers of pas
sengers and freight.
In the World War the United States
was deficient in ships that could be
converted into troop transports.
Early in his administration President
Wilson sought power to create a mer-
chant marine which would have been
invaluable if authorized in time. A
sena torial fllibuster delayed construc-
ton. In another war, the increased

ments see in the good neighbor policy
is not an excuse for extreme national
istic policies which, anyhow, they are
neither able nor willing to undertake
at present. but rather an opportunity
for a sorely needed readjustment in
the position of pre-eminence enjoyed
only too long by certain foreign inter-
ests.
U. S. Record Not Clean.
Under the Old Deal, and indeed for
over century of inter-American rela-
tionships, United States capital had
not always shown discretion or pro-
priety in its dealings with the southern
countries. The record of the last few
decades was, certainly, no shining ex-
ample of circumspection and fair play.
The list of offenses against the sover-
eighty of some of the Latin American
nations, against the rights of their
people, against all accepted standards
of conduct in commercial and finan-
cial intercourse, is too we'll known to
need repetition here. Unfortunately,
there were, at times, men in the Gov
eminent at Washins ston, or represent
ing it in some of the Latin American
countries, who not only condoned such
abuses, but even played part in them.
So much so, that the term dollar
diplomacy" became popular Ind was
publicly acknowledged by at least one
Secretary of State.
Obviously, now that those men are
no longer conducting the foreign
policies Of the United States; now
that they have been replaced by
others, of liberal principles, who are
interested in the friendship of Latin
America; now that the good-neighbor
policy has inaugurated new deal in
inter-American relations, such United
States companies as INDUCED in the
abusive practices Of yesterday-for
not all Of them did so-may resent
the restrictions and controls implied
in strict observance Of the laws Of
the countries in which they operate.
The more unaccustomed they were to
comply with the law, the more they
will suffer, for no longer can they
appeal to force or threaten with it.
Under the good-neighbor policy, 1t
goes without saying, the State De-
partment is still expected to look
after the interests of United States
citizens abroad, but only through the
established diplomatic channels and
with due respect for the laws Of the
country involved, no longer through
the devious devices OF extinct dollar
diplomacy" That Is why 1t u q
good neighbor's policy.

Depended on Dreadnaught.
Prior to the struggle of 19l4-17,
the chief dependence of naval states
men was on the dreadnaught. The
General Board of our Navy stressed
the construction of that mighty
fortress afloat as the piece de re-
sistance Of naval strength and de-
pendence. A record of its recon-
mendations shows that comparatively
little dependence was placed by the
General Board of the Navy upon de-
stroyers and smaller craft before
1915. The dreadnaught was the
weapon that was expected to win bat
ties on the ocean. Sea power and
dreadnaughts were deemed by most
people one and inseparable.
Asked by congressional commit
tee why, prior to our entrance in the
World War, the General Board of the
Navy, of which he was a member,
had not recommended a larger num-
Der of destroyers and light craft to
combat the U-boats, Admiral Sims
answered that it was because no naval
officer or statesman ever dreamed
that submarines would be used in
the way that Germany employed them
