Yet Rufus the Red has proved one
of his most profitable pieces of busi-

to find a better right-hand pitcher

Only One Poor Season.
In seven years with the Yanks he
has had just one poor season. He

floundering around, he came up with
l6 wins and IL setbacks. All told.

if not gaudy, .608 percentage.
He's hard fellow to know, is Red.
When he's in his monkey suit and
on the field it's best not to talk to
him. He's likely to take your head
of. But he does an awful lot OF
pitching.
So far this year he has been the
brightest spot in what hasn't been an
altogether sunny start for Gehrig and
company's campaign for third pen

an average of 25 runs per game
and not all of them were earned.

WE[TERS BATTLE,
BARRING DELUCE
Ross, Armstrong to Weigh
in Again for Postponed
Meeting Tonight.
BY GALE TALBOT.

NEW YORK, May 27.-Providing
the rain stops sluicing down and the
heavens clear over the near edge of
Long Island, Barney Ross and Henry
Armstrong will keep their postponed
15-round engagement for Barney S
welterweight title tonight at Madison
Square Garden Bowl.
Promoter Mike Jacobs was forced to
declare a 24-hour truce late yesterday
when 1t became evident that the
downpour was no trifling affair. But,
barring cloudburst, Mike will get
them in the ring this time, for Mike
is obviously anxious to see the last Of
this ill-starred financial venture and
get down to the main business of SELL
ing tickets for the big blowout be-
tween Max Schmeling and Joe Louis
next month.
The fighters were ordered by Gen.
John j. Phelan to appear before the
Boxing Commission again at high
noon today, though why only the
general seemed to know, inasmuch as
one weigh-in always previously has
been deemed sufficient unless fight
is postponed more than 48 hours.
Armstrong Weight O. X.
There was no prospect, however, of
any difficulty over the weights. AS
was stipulated in the articles for the
unusual affair, Armstrong by eating
a heavy breakfast managed to scale
just over 1876 pounds at yesterdays
ceremonies against Ross 141a. Even
if he failed to weigh that much to-
day, he undoubtedly had fulfilled his
contract.
Armstrong, it was explained. was
asked by the commission to weigh at
least 1856 so that he would be over
the lightweight limit and. hence, a
legitimate welterweight in the event
he won the crown from Ross. He
still is, of course, the 126-pound cham
pion, and if it didn't promise to be
such a great fight the whole PROPOSE
ton would be crazy.
There was no indication that the
postponement had made any appre-
ciable change in the odds. Ross still

Howard Lyng,
 Board Welfare
 Member Returns

Howard Lyng, Second Division Member of the Board of Public Welfare for Alaska, returned from Juneau by plane yesterday, after attending meetings of the Board with Governor Troy at the capital.
 MT. Lyng returned by boat to Seward and train to Fairbanks, where he boarded the plane for Nome. Enroute thru southwes- tern Alaska he called on many of his friends with whom he had served in the 1885 session of the Alaska Legislature.
 One of the major problems of the Board, he explained, was the difficiency in Indigent Relief Funds caused by the action of the Extraordinary Session of the Legislature in transferring $65,- 900 of the funds to be used for school bus transportation in the Palmer district.
 However, MT. Lyng stated, au- thorization had been secured to continue relief expenditures in restricted manner until the next session when a greater appropri- ation for such needs could be made.
 While in Juneau, the Nome man, who is a candidate on the Democratic ticket for House of Representatives, appeared before the Chamber of Commerce and other civic bodies, explaining the needs of this Division and point ing to its ever increasing produc- ton of gold and the newly devel- oped tin industry.
 With respect to Old Age Allow ances, MT. Lyng declared that he had taken up with the Board, the need of increased allowances for old age and needy in this section, explaining that the high cost of living, and other costlier require ments of living according to an American standard, was impera- tive. He brought back news that increases in such would be con- sidered in the light suggested.
 The next meeting of the Board of Welfare will be held some time this coming fall, at Juneau.
