Sales on the Henderson tobacco
market for the week ended yester-
day ran the season total to 5.339,636
pounds, which sold for $1,084, 1902 at
an average of 5000 per hundred, it
was officially announced today by
Fred M. Allen, Jr., sales supervisor
Sales for the past week were the
heaviest for any week of the season
so far, and amounted to 2,042, 096
pounds, bringing 1892, 1886, at an
average of 1920 per hundred pounds
A noticeable increase in prices WIS
seen on the market on Fridays sale,
by comparison with the rest of the
week. It was the highest average of
the week, and was $2O.63 for $40, 996
pounds, bringing $1O5,443.81.
Some opinion was that the passing
of the European war scare had much
to do with the increase in prices Fri

COURT HOUSE JOB
MOSTLY COMPLETE
Remodeling Of Building
Has Been In Progress
Since January

A ninc monJns job of remodeling
of the Vance county court house, in
side and out, was virtually complete
today. 1t appeared that the only thing
left was merely the placing of a very
few light fixtures in some of the Of
fees
The repair job was started shortly
after the first term of court of the
year was held, that being the one
week criminal session the first week
in January. Now the job is being fin
ished on the eve of the opening of
the final term of court of the year,
the only one in the second half of the
year, which begins Monday mroning.
While little was done to the ex-
terror, other than renewing of some
of the roof, and the cornices and
paint job, the interior has been so
thoroughly and completely done over
as hardly to be recognizable as the
same old place. New floors have been
laid throughout, the walls have been
renewed everywhere, and the entire
interior has been painted One new
toilet has been built on the main floor
and those in the basement have been
remodeled and renewed.
The court room was the first part
of the building to be worked over il
the late winter, and one or two terms
of court have been held there since
the work was finished. The rear stair
way to the court room has been
changed entirely.
Most of the work was done as a
WPA propect with government funds,
only portion being contributed by
the county.

TODAY'S
SPORTS PARADE
By HENRY McLEMORE

land his right in an early round
Maybe he will, but the chances are
much against it, Louis couldn't
nail Farr, and Louis is three times
as quick as the Jersey Irishman.
Once that fifth round is past,
Braddock is certain to be station
airy target, and even a Farr can't
miss fixed object as large as Jim.
Strangely enough. it is Brad
docks courage that worries me
most. The Irishman, who is one of
the most lovable fellows ever to
pull on glove, doesn't know how
to quit. Or how ia preserve him
self. He knows but one thing
move in and keep punching to the
end. He proved that against Louis.
He never could have licked Louis
that night in Chicago, but he could
have saved himself wicked beat
ing, and stayed much longer. had
he fought with care. But he can't
fight that way. His heart won't let
him. He must keep punching. He
must take two, three, or four, to
give one.
l can't figure out why he's fight
ing. The last time I talked to him
and to Joe Gould, his manager,
they told me that they had enough
TO live quietly and comfortably for
the rest of their days. 1 also re-
member that Jim told me when he
was training for Louis that if he
didn't win he never would fight
again.
I don't want to imply that Brad
dock hasn't chance against Farr.
He has. ANY I3ving man has a
chance against Farr. Because the
Englishman can't fight lick. All
he has is youth and vitality. That
talk about him planning to be-
come a puncher against Braddock
is silly. You are born with a punch.
You can't buy one. But he has
youth. Braddock hasn't. Hasn't
he wasn't fighting Friday night.

LOS ANGELES. Jan. 10 CUP) =
James j. Braddock fights Tommy
Farr in New York Friday night,
and I think he's a fool to do it..
And | believe if he asked Jack
Dempsey and Jack Sharkey for
their honest opinion they would tell
him the same thing.
Dempsey refused a genuine Of
fer of S750,000 to fight Gene Tun-
ney a third time, because he was
afraid of what another fight with
the sharp shooting Tunney might
do to his eyesight. Jack could have
used the money, just his sense of
values wouldn't let him gamble his
eyes against a checking account.
Sharkey was not SO wise. Greed
got the better of him. He rose to
the lure of the cash offered him to
fight Joe Louis, and came out of
retirement. He went in the ring
that night without a scar. despite
long career inathe manly art. He
had plenty Of money, but wanted
more. You know what happened
Louis hit him punch on the up
per lip that did something Sharkey
would not have had happen for
twice the money he received for the
fight
Braddock has no business fight
ing Farr. Even if he needs money,
and needs its badly, he's awfully
foolish TO gamble his health. And
that's what he is doing. Jim is
through as a fighter. He has reach
ed the age and condition where he
has no business out there in 15-
round fight, even if his foe is a
man no better equipped than Tom
my Farr. FarT isn't a killer, by
any means. But he is young and
tough and rough and figures to
belabor Braddock after five or six
rounds when Jim's legs are gone
and he isn't able to get out of the
way.
