n yEW YORK, March 15.-Rarely
n has there been much logic in
VI the boxing industry, ranging
4 from its early days as fugi-
tive sport to the postwar era of fabu-
lous gate receipts, social register
patronage and ringslde racketeering
This applies especially to the heavy
weight ranks. Tex Rickard proved
how effectively the big fellows could
be ballyhooed. The modern gener-
alton Of fight fans, he discovered. Was
willint to pay fancy prices to see
fsayyweishB Batter each other,
whereas / scisnt.fo match between
two top-notch smaller men scarcely
drew expenses.
The postwar heavyweight "gold
rush" resulted in such spectacular in
ternational matches as Jack Demp-
sey's title bouts with Georges Car
pentier and Luis Angel Firpo. From
scientific standpoint, neither was a
good match, but both fights drew well
over sl,000,000 and aroused tre-
mendouS popular interest.

There is only one real high
spot in the boxing game-and
~ that happens to be the heavy
weight championship. The rest is a
handicap of weights. 1t is like a
golfer winning a tournament with a
handicap of four strokes or six strokes.
The lighter weights are never played
from scratch.
This brings us to the heavyweight
situation as it exists today. 1t ran
smoothly from the reign of John Law
renee Sullivan, "the Grand Old Tub
from Boston," up through Gene Tun-
ney When Tunney retired, he left the
entire situation in a complete mud
dle-e muddle that has grown steadily
worse

his title after winning at least 10 Of
the Is rounds. I gave Schmeling 10
rounds. Gene Tunney and Charles
Francis (Socker) Coe, the announcer
that night, gave Schmeling II rounds.
Schmeling wasn't any too hot, but
Sharkey was worse.

Owing to the large number of pris-
oners confined in the county Jail and
the insecure condition Of the struc-
ture, two watchmen were appointed
to keep vigil about the Jail yard.
The Baltimore and Ohio bridge on
Third street was being repaired by
railroad workmen. The repairs and
consequent closing of the street caused
annoyance to persons coming into
Oakland from Eglon and Aurora and
other places south of town, as it was
necessary to detour and cross the rail-
way tracks on Second street. South
Third street was at that time the only
thoroughfare leading south toward the
places above named.
Sheriff Austin Brown, who had never
permitted man to escape after hav-
ing caught sight of him, lost out in a

near Frankville. Wilson was wanted
on charges of barn burning, stealing
chickens and stoning a dwelling house.

sibly eight cents.

Complaint Of Herbert
Herbert complained that Roslyn
school children are being taught indi-
viduality and originality at the ex-
pense of fundamental knowledge.
He said when class begins the
teacher says: "Well, children, what
shall We do today?"
Then, said Herbert, little Johnny
in the back row pipes up: II saw a
movie about Africa. Let's do Afrlca!"
$50 teacher racks her brains to
think what she knows about Africa"
continued Herbert, "and maybe they'll
transform the class room into an
African jungle village. It's like play
ing house all day long"
Herbert also said that teachers in
the Roslyn system "psychoanalyze the
poor kids SO much that the children
get the impression they are only SUBJ
jects of scientific experiments kind
of educational guinea pigs"
Another oppositionist, Mrs. Mary
White, a former teacher, declared:
Progressive education is putting
the home into the class room-and the
class room into the home, where the
parents have to teach even the
simplest fundamentals because their
children cannot get them at school.
Couldn't Tell Time.
"One 9-year-old girl in the fifth
grade couldn't even tell time. She
was supposed to go home at minutes
to S, but she had to go and ask
what time it was-With the clock right
in front of her on the wall
Il asked some 16-year-old junior
high school boys how bills in Con-
gress became law. They just sat there
and looked blank. I asked them if
they read the newspaper to keep up
on current events. They said no, they
just read the funnies."
Mrs. White said she asked similar
group about President Roosevelt's Su-
preme Court program "One didn't
know anything about it at ALL" she
said. Another said President Roose-
velt wanted to reduce the court to
five members, and still another that
he wanted to add two members"

the limbo of the kerosene lamp, the

Long Island community.
Ant the battle is on.
In an atmosphere bristling with
cries of "neW-fang.ed monkeyshines"
and "highfalutin' "-countered by
vigorous charges of "old-fashioned'
and 'hidebound"-the champions Of
the orthodox system of many decades

schools and in the junior and senior
high school.
Today a Wintry chill pervades the
town. Partisans glare with frozen

streets, back-fence gossip has taken
a new lease on life, and finally the
village fathers have called in the New

Parents Hold Mass Meeting.
The clash, long smoldering, fared
into the open when 400 parents held
a mass meeting and protested to the
Roslyn Board of Education that the
idea of teaching their children by
having them learn how to bake nut
bread was madness
Even the explanation of Frederick
Robert Wegner, progressivist super
intendent of schools, that the chill
dren learned no" to multiply, add
and divide by mixing the nut-bread
ingredients failed to soothe some of
the irate mothers and fathers. Heat
edly, they insisted that junior could
learn to juggle figures much better
by studying the multiplication table
than by adding two cups of nuts to
q pound of flour, place in piping hot
oven and bake for 25 minutes.
"Half-baked," muttered some of the
parents, referring to the idea rather
than the nut bread, which they ate
and liked.
Heading the opposition, Herman
Herbert, jr., Fordham University
graduate, explained:
"Were not fighting entirely to get
the old, rigid school room back. The
idea is to combine the better points
