eAcouVlfc Was maze punllc AT tnt
same time that a conference be-
tween masters, mates and pilots, one
Of the seven striking unions, and
the shipowners, broke up with
things tougher than ever"
The longshoremenS district presi-
dent presented his sharp denuncia-
ton of RoSsi in a broadcast last
night. He concentrated his attack
on a speech made by the mayor over
a nationwide radio hookup a week
ago.
I'm that speech" Bridges said.
Mayor Rossi had the opportunity
to perform an important public
service-to explain clearly and hon
estly the true situation. But instead
of availing himself of this opportun
ity he took the side of the shipoWn-
ers and delivered propaganda
speech in exact conformity with the
strikebreaking publicity campaign
of the Waterfront Employers asso-
citation.
Mayor Rossi misrepresented and
maligned the cause of the maritime
unions, and, by series of fabrica-
tons and distortions sought to in
cite public opinion against the strik-
ers."
Breakup of the peace meeting be-
tween the employers and the deck
officers acted as a brake to nego-
tiations which yesterday appeared to
be progressing steadily and salts
factorily.
The demand of the deck officers
for a voice in the selection of deck
officers for deep-sea vessels is one
of tn greatest remaining obstacles
to final peace in the huge shipping
tie-up.
The masters, mates and pilots met
again today with a portion of the
shipowners' negotiating committee,
headed by Thomas G.. Plant. The
Marine Cooks and Stewards asso-
citation will confer with another
portion of the employers group
Meanwhile, F. L. Hogue, Modesto,
Cal, president Of the Associated
Farmers of Stanislaus county, ad-
dressed a letter to Gov. Frank F.
Merriam, asking if state authorities
would provide police protection ito
the farmers of California if they
move on the waterfront of San
Francisco and state property in an
orderly manner to have their prop
erty and reopen the channels of
trade"
Hogue's organization sponsored a

ENGINEER ON
SHIP FINISHES
HIS 23RD YEAR

NEW YORK. UP)-When the liner
Santa Clara docked at New York
recently from Valparaiso, Chile.
Chief Engineer Charles II. Elliott
had completed exactly 1,5OO,-
996 miles in % years with the
Grace Line. During that period,
which includes two years trans
porting troops through the sub
marine infested Mediterranean, he
has never met with a disaster at
sea. The worst that ever befell
him was the loss of a couple of
propeller blades when they tangled
with submerged wreckage.
Born in Philadelphia. Elliott
started his career at sea at the
age of "a. He is SO now. His roster
of travel reads like a page from
a geography book. One Of the first
men to go through the Panama
canal, he since has traversed the
big ditch" more than 200 times.
He has been around tine bottom
of the earth'-through the Straits
of agellan-some IA or Is times
and crossed the Atlantic a dozen
times to take troops and supplies
to France and then to bring them
home after the war.
Asked recently what he thought
of youths making career for
themselves at sea, Elliot said:
my advice is that if boy has
a yearning to go to sea, by all
means go. There is more chance
today than ever before for a youth
to make a real career for himself.
The pay is good and the work isn't
what it was when I first started
I wouldn't trade my job for the
best of those on land.

Had Baer BewiIdered.

ONE of his fastest performances
~ was delivered some years back at
the expense of MaXimilian Baer. the
butcher boy from Livermore, Calf.
Max could pound tire spine of steer
to powder with one blow of his right
hand, and this time he tried all night,
in his fair-minded way, to do the
same for Mr.. Lcughran. But Mr..
Loughran's chin never was there when
Make wound Up. Instead, Mr.. Lough-
ran was of to one side picking flies
off Mr. Baer's nose with his left glove.
Mr.. Baer became greatly annoyed
when one OF the customers at the
ringside hollered, 60 on, hit him,
you big bum!"
Listen" Mr.. Baer roared back, "if
you think this guy can be hit, come
up here and try it yourself!"
That was Loughran at his best,
when his legs still were strong, his eyes
clear and his reflexes swapping to the
command like soldiers. But pretty
soon the system slowed down. Tommy
found himself being hit occasionally
with punches that would have missed
by feet in the good old days when
the pins were right. And he knew
that If enough punches on the chin
are laid end to end they spell e-t-h-e-r,

BARLUND IS HELD
B|G-T|ME BOXER
Convinces Experts in Beat
ing Beaupre, K. O. Spe.
CiaIiSt From Texas.
Ey the Associated Press.

n YEW YORK, January 21-One
nj and all, the fight experts were
agreed today that Gunnar
Barlund is ready for the big
time.
The Finn, who hasn't lost a fight
since coming to the United States
several months ago, completed his ap-
premiership in the promising young
ster" class Of heavyweight hopefuls by
soundly whipping Tom Beaupre, the
Texas knockout specialist, over the
10-round route at the Hippodrome last
night.
Despite the K. o. reputation Beau
pre- brought from Texas, Barlund had
a surprisingly easy time. The Texan
landed only one real hard blow. q
jarring right which shook Barlund
momentarily in the seventh.
Barlund, scaling 1876 to his op-
ponent's 1913, was the aggressor
throughout. In the fourth and ninth
rounds he had Beaupre groggy and
smeared with blood, and from the
first round on, the Texans nose was
dripping red.
Three of the ranking heavyweights.
Champion Jim Braddock, Joe Louis
and Bob Pastor, who meets Louis on
January 20. were In the crowd Of
$500.

Held Carnera in Contempt.

7 THINK he definitely was slowing
down by the time he got his shot
at the heavyweight championship, with
Primo Camera. The chances are that
Primo might have licked him anyway,
because the leaning tower practically
was invincible when you threw him in
there with a guy who couldn't hit.
Having nothing to fear, the vast We
netian simply would lean on the party
Of the second part and club him around
with those terrific elbows. There wasn't
room enough in the standard sized
ring to keep entirely away from Primo.
But I saw the fight. and I saw
Ioughran before and after, and know
that he never regretted performance
90 deeply. He had a profound con-
tempt for Camera, his size and every
thing about him-a contempt that the
big guy by no means deserved.
Thomas will go on fighting during
his world .our. though he has said
good-by to American rings. He ought
to do all right abroad, especially in
London, where the citizens are daffy
about his nice face and the way he
holds teacup.
But it's going to be long time be-
fore the Drexels and the Biddles are
consoled for the loss Of that nice Mr..
Ioughran.

CHANGE KILLS PLAN

Of one change by the National Trot-

ters or PAGERS In alignment until
about 30 yards from the wire, when
they are given the word to trot or
pace. In that way they reach the
starting line In gait and In their
proper places.
The difficulty in the Grand Circuit
system, Parshall said, looms when
large field forces the entrants to
be started in two tiers. Under his
plan, he said, two lines would 60 up
the outside Of the track, side by side,
one swinging IN behind the other at
the usual commands, and all turning
in the same direction at the same
time.
The Grand Circuit proposes. how
ever, Parshall said, to have one tier
Of the large fields start ON the inside
Of the track, and the other on the
the starting line. Thus there would
be two files, parallel to each other,
with the width Of the track between
them. The outside line would turn
to the right. while the inside line
would pass beyond the first turning
point before wheeling to the left to
cross the track.
At the word to turn toward the
starting line one tier would be forced
to turn to the right and the other
to the lett, tor the second time, for
their walk-trot jaunt to the wire.
"And when those trotters or PAGERS
start wheeling different ways before
starting straight down the track, that's
where they'll run into trouble" Par

The ideal situation, from the pro-

AS to which style produced the

when two good zone defense
teams come together" he ex-
planned, there Is likely to be a low
score because Of the concentration
of the defense on the man with the

themselves up to the top-and staying
there. At one period, they were SO
