Venezuelan Fans Rozz Spurs
Chavez in Bout With ScdIzo

Venezuela, had beaten Freddie
Miller. the former world champ, at
Caracas last April. Then he took
hair line decision from Archibald
in a 10-round non-title fracas. And
last September he took another close
decision from Miller in a bout in
which each fighter was f1oored
twice.
BY October the people of Caracas
and lot of other points were i'm
patient to see Chavez win Cor pos
sibly lose) by a decisive margin.
When he got a hesitant nod from
two of the three officials in his bout
with Scalzo in October, the home
folks were reported to have become
somewhat exercised and expressed
grave doubts that Chavez's gloss was
as bright as it seemed.
The upshot of all this was that
the chunky South American came to
the United States to square himself
with his critics.

for an airing tonight at Madison
Square Garden in what ordinarily
would be peaceable featherweight
fight between Petey Scalzo of New

Each of them has beaten the

logical contenders for the title. But
that isn't the steam-up for their fuss
tonight.

Hurting Grown Of 1899
Awarded to Teller
BY JOHN LARDNER.


NEW YORK, Dec. 22-Though
Robert Moses Grove, Marius Russo
and Steve Sundra technically were
the leading pitchers of the American
League for 1899, as set forth in the
records this week, I think those
same records prove young Robin
Teller, the hard-thrower from Iowa,
to be the best pitcher in the game.
This was Robins third full season
IN the big leagues, though it's still
more matter of wistful thinking
than anything else when he takes a
razor to his cheeks. Young, callow,
ungrown, a kid whose idea of a big
time is three or four bottles of soda
pop and a fast car, fresh off the
high school campus and mixing with
men who've forgotten more than
Bob ever knew, Feller's physical
equipment is such that he can play
their game with them and be the
best in his line.

Foodstuffs Wasted
Saws Welfare Worker

I. M. Bradford, administrator
of the Montana department OF
public welfare this week urged
that the large crop of unhar-
vested fruits and vegetables be
saved for human consumption
and not wasted as has been
done in the past years.
In a bulletin to ali depart
ments of public welfare in the
state, Bradford stated that large
quantities of fruits and Vege-
tables are not gathered in the
fall, but allowed to rot and spoil
while thousands of people In the
Treasure State suffer from lack
OF food.
He suggested that among the
farmers there were many who
could not afford to pay cash
for the harvest of their crops
or who has a sufficient amount
of fruits and vegetables to last
them through the winter. Those
who did not have the means
of harvesting their crop could
hire help and pay them IN
shares of supplies gathered.
He appealed strongly to all peo-
pie receiving public assistance
to take advantage of any prop
osition along these lines.
Bradford said, II am urging
these preparations for winter,
these renewed efforts, in order
to ward off a great deal Of un-
necessary suffering, and also
to prevent needless expendi-
lures of public funds. Numer-
Gus taxpayers are as hard
pressed economically as some
that receive relief"
