 One of the better fights of the evening was between Bill Duffy, l67, of Hartford and Joe Milano, l66, of Waterbury. The Hartford battler, one Of the classiest to display his wares here this year, proved much too clever for the eager Milano and was awarded the decision,
 Duffy was originally scheduled to meet Bill Perrin of Plainyille, but Perrin was forced to postpone the fight due to c severe cold. The two lighters are expected to meet some future date.

 Boston, Aug. 2o.-(Up)-Letting the sports chips fall where they may:
 Despite rumors to the contrary, its Ia safe bet that Joe Cronin will be lot the helm of the Red Sox and Bill McKechnie will continue doing bus mess with the Bees next season.
 Let's pick some of these yarns apart The Cronin rurnor was that the remainder of Joe's five-year con- tract with the Sox would be bought up so he can return to Washington and take over the presidency of the club from Clark Griffith, Mrs. Cro- nin's uncle and foster father.
 Cronin Going Great
 There isn't much doubt that even- tually Cronin will succeed drifilth, but 1t won't be next year. Joe's contract, which has two years more to run, reputedly is good for $S0,000 per annum. After two disas- trous years, Cronin currently Is playing some of the greatest ball of his career. He certainly won't quit now. And he's determined to bring Q pennant to Boston before his contract expires.
 If that isn't proot enough, Joe himself terms the rumors "ridicu. lous," while General Manager Eddie Collins says the tales are "too silly to talk about" and that Cronin certainly will he manager of the Red SoX again next year."
 Tho McKechnie yarn has had Bill moving Into managerial posts at New York (Giants), Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Cleveland and St. Louis (Cardinals). It so happens, how- ever, that McKechnie Is sold on his present job. and his bosses and Boston fans are sold on McKechnie It was less than three years ago that one gentleman in the Boston Na- tional League organization let the world know how he felt about Me- Kechnie. It happened at e tes- timonial banquet to Babe Ruth when the latter came here as player executive of the then Braves '. The Babe had his eyes on McKech- nie's job.
 But, while everybody else was ex- tolling Ruth, the gentleman in question got up and made Q memor- able little speech. Addressing his remarks in Ruth's general direction, he said the Babe would have to prove he had what 1t takes to man. age Q major league club before he could get McKechnie's job.
 It's history that Ruth never com. pleted the season with the Braves. So just forget about the Cro- nin- -McKechnie rumors.
 Tanks Beat Terrell
 When Wes Terrell pitched that i2- inning game against the Yankees yesterday, 1t precluded any possibil- ity of his appearing in the Wash- ington-Red Sox series that opens here today. And are the Sox ofii. cials burned upl They had hoped for Q return duel between Terrell and Buck Newsom. The original clash between the two at Washing. ton shortly after they swapped uni- forms was c natural. Some of the Sox think Terrell walked out" on the Idea.

THE MURDER RATE

According to report, the city of
Quebec, with population of approx
mately 100000, was the scene of only one
murder in whole year.
In the United States there are on an
average approximately 10 murders each
year out of each 100000 population, while
in the cities of Memphis, Jacksonville and
Birmingham the annual rates during the
past 10 years has averaged nearly so muir
ders per 100000, or SO times that of
Quebec.
In spite of the earnest efforts of So
biologists and publicists to determine the
cause and suggest a remedy for the de-
plorable crime situation, little Roadway
has been made in that direction.
Attempts to explain crime as an after
math of the war fall flat when it is con-
sidered that the homicide rate in England,
Canada, Australia, South Africa, New
Zealand and other English-speaking coun-
tries averages only about one-tenth that of
the United States, yet all these were in
the war from beginning to end and suffer
ed from its effects immeasurably more
than we did.
1t is declared by reputable writer
that only one murderer out of 160 is ex-
ecuted in New York, while 70 out of 100
are hanged in London. This may have
something to do with our high murder
rate. .s.d

Kill The Umpire!

BY ERIK Mckinley ERICSSON

California b4.s

Of Congress. there were numerous
proposals to limit the power OF the
Supreme Court. During the present
session. there has been food OF
such proposals. Most Of the PROPOSE
tons called for drastic action. They
ranged all the way from demands
that the Court be denied the right
to pass on the constitutionality OF
laws to the suggestion that new
judges should be added so as to in
sure favorable Interpretation.
Until his surprise message to Con-
gress. the Chief Executive made no
public declaration on the matter. but
now. under the guise of judicial re-
form, he asks Congress to enact an
Administration bill which would
have the effect Of packing the court.
PROFESSIONALLY there are some
commendable recommendation in
the message. No serious objections
can be raised to the proposition to re-
lieve congestion in the district and
circuit courts. Doubtless. justice could
be administered more efficiently IL
proctor should be appointed to help
the SupreEae Court supervise the
business of the lower courts. Like
wise. the proposal to speed up APP
peals to the Supreme Court on ques-
tons Of constitutionality seems to be
bconiniendable. incidentally. II Is very
heartening to note that nowhere in
the message aid the President d1es-
ton the right Of the Fedefallcourts to
pass on the constitutionaiity of laws.
