He told the eastern district con-

grand old man Of football" Amos

trouble with football rested with the
policies and administration Of edu-

Education would have lot more

it were not for the so-caleld extra

that appeal to the interest and
imagination of people. The enthu-

tiers with a man who wanted Moth
ing more than chance to butt with
his head, hit with his knees, and
generally fight in an illegal and
dangerous fashion.
Just remember this If Louis elects
to defeat Paychek the easy way. If
Paychek lasts the entire IS rounds
it won't necessarily mean that Louis
has slipped and lost the ability to
knock out men of the calibre of the
near-bald Iowan.
Paychek is strong hitter, which
means that he must always be given
chance against anyone with the
normal quota of hands, arms and
choose to never offer Johnny a
chance to throw the punch that
made him the toast of the corn belt.
And he can't be blamed If he does.
Louis has known the hard and
hungry life, and having put 1t be-
hind him by means Of the heavy
weight championship, can scarcely
be critized for trying to retain that
championship with every means at
his command.

lis Joe Louis slipping? This ques-
ton has been put to me by many
people in many states, particularly
since the champions 15-round en-
gagement with the bruising Chilean,
Arturo Godoy.
1t is a natural question, because
the time has come for him to slip.
According to statistics reached by
the study of heavyweight champions
Of the past, the average champion
holds the title less than four years
Joe will have reigned three years
this coming June unless Johnny
Paychek defeats him in Madison
Square Garden next Friday night
My answer to this question has
always been in the negative. He has
made nine defenSeS of his title to
date, and I have seen all but one or
two of them. Unless I know even
less about boxing than I think I do,
have never detected any signs Of
deterioration. he has had his off
nights, of course, when his hitting
wasn't as sharp as usual and his
mobility left something to be desired.
But such times come to all athletic
champions.
Remember?
Perhaps the three fights that
started people wondering how much
longer Louis would last were his
fights with Tommy Farr, Tony Gal
ento and Arturo Godoy. For some
reason or another these bouts left
the citizenry with the feeling that
he wasn't the invincible killer hi
once was. On me, they had the OPP
posite effect. 1 thought Jos Louis
was a tremendously effective boxer
against Farr, and I gave the WEIGH
man but three rounds. Against Gal
ento he rose from the floor after
being felled by one of the hardest
hitters the game has produced,
and went on to finish his man in
the fourth round. was in California
when he fought Godoy, but saw
| the pictures and nothing that the
camera recorded gave me cause to
believe he was beaten or even in
danger Of being beaten. thought
he adjusted himself to the situation
of being faced with combination
of clown and ape amazingly well.
Out To Win
Boxing followers in general are
apt to forget that a champions
business is to win and that 1t is
much more important to win, even
If he has to look bad doing it, than
to lose in a spectacular and flam-
boyant manner. The heavyweight
title Is worth million or more
dollars to a man, and he would be
a fool to needlessly risk breaking
his hands or suffering cuts with
heroic tactics, when victory was OBJ
tainable in a safe, sane, though dull,
manner.
Take the Farr fight for example.
Louis won it easily by staying away
and jabbing the Welchman dizzy
with the best left hand in boxing.
He would have been foolish to allow
his vanity or desire to please the
crowd to drive him into close quar-

Yves Ferren Now
Better Golfer
Than A Pitcher
Former Indian and Red
SOx Star Through as
Big Lacquer?
By PAUL sCHEFFELS

SSAe~OASOA-NAN~A~l
New York, March 27-(UP)-
News trickling northward from
baseball's spring training camps IN
dicated today that Yves Ferrell, golf
er, seemed destined for more success
than Yves Terrell, pitcher.
Terrell, one Of several American
league players in recent seasons to
migrate to the Brooklyn Dodgers In
an attempt to remain in the major
league salary brackets, is through
as a big time pitcher. Every player
but Terrell admits it.
He's been pounded numerically
by most Of the batters he's faced in
exhibition games and has made his
most impressive spring showing In
the baseball players golf tourna-
ment which he won from Pitts
burghs Paul Waner.
Not So Good
Yesterday Terrell made his latest
attempt and 1t was far from good.
Rookie Boston Outfielder Hubert
Bates, later sold to Toronto, cracked
out a triple on Ferrells first pitch.
Then came a walk, fly and dou-
BILE by Tony Cuccinello before the
side went out. He allowed two hits
in the next frame and then, aided
by a stiff wind and occasional show
ers, held the Bees to one hit for the
next three innings before leaving the
game.
That is a sample of the pitching
that the 80 year old Terrell, who has
a nothing" ball as his chief pitch
ing weapon, hopes will earn him q
berth on the Dodger staff.
A review Of his big league career
only makes his current efforts more
pitiful. He won 20 or more games
six times, twice winning rs, once with
the Cleveland Indians and once with
the Boston Red Sox. He was the
first pitcher in modern times to win
20 or more in each Of his first four
seasons.

Hollywood, Cal, March ~ - (U.
P0 - It may take a year and 1t
may take more, but Connie Mack
says his Philadelphia Athletics are
heading back up the ladder for a
crack at the American League pen
nant.
Mack isn't the man who losses of
superlatives without backing them
up, SO when he declares, his 1910
squad is headed for better days he
commands attention and respect.
II really don't expect to advance
much in the league this year con-
sidering our past seasons" he said
as his team, which recently left Its
training base at Anaheim, stopped
off for game here today. But ]
will say that this young team is
coming fast and we should hit top
speed either next year or in 1912"
Mack Still Spry
The 77-'year-old Mack, still as
spry and alert as the day he went
to his first training camp in 1888
has one motive at present on which
all his amazing energies are concen-
trated. He is moulding a combina-
ton Of the old and the extremely
new into a tightly knit club for the
future, and If anyone is capable OF
doing the job it's Connie.
Naturally, it's a long pull, climb
ing up the stairs after being down
but we mean business and with all
these fine new players with the clut
well, the future looks very rosy

NOTICE TO ALL REPUBLICANS

The misleading statements of E. s. Evans, Editor of the Alaska Daily Press, and of Earl Jamieson, non- resident editor of defunct paper also printed by the Alaska Daily Press, have either by motive or ignorance been trying to divide the Republican Party in Alaska, stating that the Governing Committee of Alaska have no right to elect Dele gates and Alternates to the National Convention. They quote a proposed resolution to a convention four years ago which wasn't adopted to prove it.
 We are in the year 1940. The Convention at Sitka is to be held so we will have 1940 platform, not a 1886 platform, as candidates sub scribed when they filed.
 No one was refused admittance to any meeting of the Committee if he came at 7:30 pm, time for which the meeting was called, and not when the Committee was in the midst of vote.
 All Divisions in Alaska recognized this regular Republican Party call and sent in recommendation for appointments.

Porkinq Meters

Commissioners Young and Nc
Coach announced today they would
seek congressional approval for the
installation during the next fiscal
year of 500 additional parking
meters.
Col McCoach said he was con-
vinced the parking meter system
was proving "a success" and be-
lived the number in use should be
considerably enlarged.
Commissioner Young emphasized
that the meters now in use are
bringing considerable revenue into
the District till. According to a
report yesterday from the Auditors
office, the District this calendar
year will receive more than $33 900
in meter fees.
The District now has 300 meters,
but only about $50 are in operation
because so many have been broken
by thieves. Thieves have rif1ed the
boxes Of $1,000 this year, officials
said.
In the hope of reducing vandal-
ism, the Commissioners are seeking
the employment of an additional
collector, so that all of the meters
may be emptied daily.
1t is expected also that police will
be asked to maintain a closer watch
on those meters which are some
what "off the beaten track"
