your correspondent laid along side.
Sandy laughed off all efforts to
find out what he thinks of the cur

"I'm from the country" he said,
land we country boys don't know
much about what's going on"
Graham, Martin and Maxwell all
agreed on one thing, however,-the
beer industry's decision to wage. a
"clean up or close up" campaign
meets with their wholehearted ap-

Farmers Seem To Be Egging On
Their Hens To Bigger Exhibits

It's as broad as it is long. And not
to keep you in suspense TOO long, We'll
explain.
We mean the egg William Fitzwater,
of Swanton, brought to The Republi-
can office last Monday, and for circum-
ference around the short way, Mr..
Fitzwater or more likely Mr.. Fitz-
waters White Leghorn hen, gets the
blue ribbon in that one direction.
Mr.. Fitzwater's exhibit was "a
inches long and weighed four ounces.
The circumference the short way was
67s inches and the long way 81
inches.
Mr.. Hauser, however, retains the
blue ribbon for having the longest
egg, it having been 3A inches long,
and it's circumference, the long way,
was only 81s inches, while around the
short way it was inches. Dan Lich-
tvs hen holds second place on the
short way circumference, the egg he
exhibited being 81 inches.

Churches Well Filled at Easter

Churches of Oakland and in all sec
tions of the county were well filled at
the Easter services marking the res
direction of Christ from the dead.
The Easter parade of spring fash
ions, however, was at minimum, for
there were about two inches of snow
fell during the previous night which
left the mountain top cold and made
it necessary for most Of the women,
as we'll as the men, to wear winter
clothing. A few brave young ladies,
however, appeared in their spring at
tire, which made them look very cour-
ageous indeed against background
of snow.
By evening most of the snow had
disappeared and the following day
was an ideal balmy spring day.

Plans for Mann Fiqht
Here Upset as Boyd
Kayoes Robinson
Turner Can't Get Winner
For Bout; Other Boys
Sidestep Nathan
BY LEWIS F. ATCHISON,
Star stan Correspondent.

BALTIMORE, Md, July 25.-Bald
Bill Boyd, the reformed sailorman,
slipped Jim Robinson a right-hand
Mickey Finn here last night, sent
him plunging to the canvas in the
second Of scheduled 10-round bout
and with two paralyzing punches
wrecked Promoter Joe Turner's plans
for a heavyweight bout August 7
at Griffith Stadium in Washington.
The kayo avenged a p-round set
back Boyd suffered at Robinson S
hands couple of months ago.
For one brief, fleeting round the
gods smiled benignantly on Uncle
Joe and his dubious matchmaker
Herr Goldie Ahearn, as they settled
into their ringside chairs for what
promised to be rousing 1O-round
bout. Then the gods evidently
recognized the pair and frowned,
for Robinson'S monumental carcass
slowly toppled to the canvas like a
razed smokestack.
Promoters Also Kayoed.
You could have fioored the pair of
Washington promoters with a nasty
look when the lad pulled himself
up on stilt-like legs and laid his
weary head on another murderous
right-and as Referee Charley Baum
counted over him a futile whats
the use" expression came over their
honest countenances.
Robinson was signed, sealed and
awaiting delivery for bout with
Nathan Mann and for one brief
round it appeared that he would
hurdle Boyd a second time to clinch
the match. He speared Bill with a
looping left hook in the first round
and splattered right on his head
that all but put the ex-gob on the
deck, but the finishing punch wasn't t
there. The kid didn't know how to
handle his wounded opponent.
Foe for Mann Hard to Find.
Now Turner wants Boyd to box
Mann, but Max Waxman, who
handles his affairs, wants Bill to
box in Baltimore. A native Balti-
morean, Max has much civic pride,
not to mention healthy interest in
the Century Sports Club.
Turner, however, is willing to sub
stitute good heavyweight like Red
Burman, or even Steve Dudas, if
they're willing. But the boys are
stunning Nathan like case of
smallpox, and lining up an opponent
for him is going to be more difficult
than it sounds.

the present nine clay courts and re-
establishment of new and more

space formerly occupied by the res

by the courts will be converted into

Sprint Strain Blamed
For Johnstown's
Route Losses
EorIy Speed Is Inbred,
But Distance Quality
Is Not Natural
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, July 25.-The older
generation of race track men, al
ways slow to enthuse about a new
"superhorse" like Johnstown, are
not particularly surprised that Will
liam Woodward's big colt caught
another licking from Challedon in
the Arlington classic.
Basically, they contend, the win
ner of the Kentucky Derby still is a
sprinter and not a distance runner.
On certain days, they admit. he
comes close to looking a perfect
combination of the two. But, in
the long run, he's a son of James,
town, and Jamestown was sprinter
The suggestion, therefore, that
something was wrong with Johns
town in Saturdays mile-and-a
quarter test brought only a doubt
ing smile from Dave Leighton, the
veteran chairman, who watches
them all run day after day, winter
and summer.
"Lame?" he said. mo, I don t
think anything was the matter with
him, except that he's primarily a
sprinter and didn't feel like running
long race that day. Horses, you
know, have their days, just like we
have
Not Always Ready for Route.
"Johnstown sprinted himself out
in the first half mile, beating of
Technician. and when Challedon
came up with his late rush John
town just didn't have enough left
to answer him. A horse doesn' (
have to be lame to get beat by
Challedon.
Another thing: Maybe Johns
town wasn't quite in condition to
run that far. His only workout at
Arlington before the race was a
fast half mile. In the old days
if horse was going to run a mile
! and-a-Quarter race he was out there
running mile and a quarter in his
workouts
How, Dave was urged. could he
quite reconcile Johnstown's brilliant
record this summer in distance clas-
sizes with the thought that essentially
he was a sprinter.
It's a little difficult Dave ad-
mitted, because he's a great colt
and probably will win some more
/ long races this year, including the
Lawrence Realization at a mile and
one-half. But if you had seen
jamestown as many times as I have
you would know what I'm getting at

Equipoise at every pole for 7 fur
longs. 1t took some sprinting to

that great early speed and desire
to run from his father. The evil
dence that he inherited distance
from his mothers side, on the other
hand, is little sketchy. Some of
us aren't satisfied yet, though Ill
have to admit he looked like he
could have gone on running all day
when he won the Derby
| If Dave sounds a trif1e contra

he is no more puzzled over Johns

made him a 1-to-5 favorite in Sat-
