Coga, Rumania's Hitler,
 Begun Cmeer ds q Poet

BUCHAREST, Jan. 31.-Octavian Gcga. Rumanias new fascist pre- Imier. resembles his political mentor, Adolf Hitler, in program, personality and patriotism.
 The comparison goes further. Beth spent their formative years in countries other than the ones they were called to lead to super-na- tionalism, Hitler in Austria and Goga in Hungary.
 Dreamers and DOers
 Goga and Hitler, both small town boys, are dreamers and doers, strong anti-semites, orators with an cleo tric power, solitude-loying but al times gregarious, able to make quick decisions. thorough nationalists.
 Goga's program calls for rework- 1 ing of the constitution in the authoritary sense, loyalty to the monarchy, "Rumania for Runa- nians," the complete union of army, 1 justice, government, and education with the people, election of all for eigners-meaning Jews primarily and death sentences for treason. l Goga, 57, is married to singer known as The Nightingale of l Pennsylvania. They have no chil- dren.
 Goga was born in the Transyl- vania village of Rasjnari, the son of a clergyman, and was educated | in Budapest.
 ! Famed as a Poet
 He won fame first as a poet. In i 1905 the Rumanian Academy hon. cred him for his patriotic songs Some years later he ran for parlia- ment, but lost He was sentenced | to prison for his inflammatory poems, but escaped to Hungary.
 Before Rumania's entry into the World War he returned and agitated for fighting against Austria Then he wrote propaganda urging the provinces of Siebenbuergen and Bu- kowina to join Rumania. He served as volunteer in the Rumanian army.
 When peace came, he was ad- wiser to the Rumanian peace dele gation in Paris. Subsequently he began his political career, first as minister of education and then as minister of interior in the cabinet of Marshal Averescu, with whom he broke in 1921 to found his own party of national peasants. In 1885 he joined that organiza- tion with the League for Christian National Defense of the anti-semitic leader Alexander Cuza, to form the National Christian party. The lparty's badge, chosen by Cuza in 1910, is the swastika.

Kang was sent in place of C. T..

|AHEARN TOURNEY
TO SELECT FOE
FOR ROSS HERE
BY BOB ADDIE

Washington will be host to
welterweight championship matcf
this summer, provided a couple
of minor "ifS" are hurdled BY
Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn. The
Muscle Maestro of Turner's Arena
has suddenly decided that Mon
days bout between Saverio Turf
clio and Andre JeSSurun is an
elimination contest and the winner
will meet Frankie Blair.
Blair is at present the second
best welterweight in the world, &C
cording to the ranking list of the
National Boxing Association, but
his laurelS are in for q bit OF
furnishing because he lost to JeS'
surun recently. It seems Col Har.
vey "Heinie" Miller, who Is chair.
man of the N. B. A. ranking board
when he has few breathing
spells from his position as secre-
tary to the local Boxing Commits
sion, has decreed that Mondays
winner will be acknowledged the
No. 2 man.
To make the situation about as
clear as Big Ben in London to a
nearSighted man on a foggy day,
Mike Burke, Jessurun'S manager,
wants a return match with Blair.
This is rather unusual, since the
winner never sees any percentage
in rechaStising a bloke he has
whipped before. Burke, however,
believes Jessurun will be rec
ognized as the outstanding con-
tender for Ross crown. AS evil
dence of good faith, Mike is will
ing to post $1,000 bond to seal
the Blair match.
Now comes another if. Turiello
has a fixation he can whip JeS-
surun. Saverio did it once-at
Madison Square Garden few
months ago-and he's sure he can
do it again. The decision was close
but a miss is still as good as a mile.
even a trackman prefers a good

around the oval) Thus Turiello
doesn't see where Andre rates any
consideration at all.
Goldie has taken care Of that
eventuality by obtaining a promise
from the winner of Mondays bout
to meet Blair. The latter, Goldie
thinks, will be only too eager to
get crack at either battler if his
lost prestige will be restored.
There is every evidence that the
N. B. A. will recognize the survivor
of this round robin as the challen-
ger for RosS's title. However, and
here's the final if, Ross must first
dispose of Henry Armstrong, a
little featherweight who is
muscling in on the racket of the
bigger boys. 80
Looks easy, doesn't it? But it
isn't far-fetched at all, because
Sam Plan and Art Winch, Ross
managers, have agreed to show
their charge here this summer and
the title fight is as good as made
IF Armstrong is beaten.

ORLANDO, Fla, March 12.-
Bucky Harris probably will carry
nine pitchers this season; maybe
10. He will have five outfielders,
six infielders and two or three

CUPS AWARDED

crowd of grownups and clubmateS
who cheered adoringly for their
buddies. The team prize was won
by the Metropolitan Police Boys
Club with As points and the Wash
ington Boys Cluo, Georgetown
Branch, had 81 points.
Major Ernest w. Brown, Super
intendent of Police and chairman
of the District Boxing Commits
sion, received the Lucian w. Van
Doren Trophy on behalf of his
boys. The cup is really a beautiful
thing, wrought in gold and
flanked with boxers on both sides
and one on top.
Miss Jeanette Hackett, major
domo of the dancing girls at
Loew's Capitol Theater, presented
another trophy, bearing her name
to the outstanding individual. This
coveted prize was annexed by a
blond tow-headed, grinning kid
named Henry Ragsdale, of the
Merrick Boys Club.
The tournament was a tribute
to the hard work of Jerry Looney,
chairman of the Junior Golden
Gloves Committee. Jerry started
with 106 little battlers and it took
them five nights of fighting to
get to the finals. The champs re-
ceived gold medals and the losers
silver.
