COLUMBUS, O., A., Is A
year ago Jack Buddy Walker,
l94-pound negro, was washing au-
tomobiles for a living and missing
plenty of meals. Today he is un-
beaten in IS fights, some against
pretty fair fighters, and is aiming
for the heights.
His story has a rags to riches
tang:
On April 3, 1899, a preliminary
heavyweight ran out on matcn-
maker Whitley" Morrett of Co
lumbus and Whitley" started a
last-minute search for a substi-
tute.
In the crowd outside, unable to
buy a ticket, was Walker, he had
never had a boxing glove on his
big hands, but when Morrett Of
fered him SIS for a four-rounder
he snatched it. He was clumsy,
but he kayoed his foe, George
Kirsch of Akron. in the third.
That show drew a gross of
$40. In his next two fights, Walker
scored one-round knockouts over
Oscar Toles of Youngstown and
Jack Lowe of San Francisco, His
cut for the three knockouts add
ed ZIP to SIS.
Up He Goes
Then Morrett moved him into
six-rounders and boosted his pay
to $40 per scrap The box office
was responding to the thud of
Walkers fists. Walker won by
knockouts over Ed tTipperary)
Murray of Shelby, O., in two
rounds, over Tommy Carter of De-
troit in five, over Bob Thomas Of
Lockland, O., in five, and over
Young Harry Wills of Cincinnati
in six.
After his seventh straight knock
out, Walker moved into the main
events. He won 10-round decisions
over Paul Favors of Detroit and
Charley Belanger of Canada, but
used the kayo method on Floyd
Gibbons of Detroit in six, Smoky
Maggard of Dayton, KY, in three
and Wild Bill Boyd, Jack Demp-
sey's protege, in eight.
That made total of 10 knock
outs and two decisions in nine
months.
Walker opened 1910 with a 10
round decision over tough Eddie
Simms of Cleveland, then scored
three-round knockouts over Sandy
Mcdonald of Dallas, Tex, and Bob
Nestell of Los Angeles. Then came
12-round decision over Simms
and a seven-round knockout over
Ed Murray.

Aluminium Co. Plans
$3o,000,0005pending
For Expansion
Additional Building
Designed to Meet
Growing Demand
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH, Jan. 30.-With the
demand for aluminium at an all-time
high, the Aluminium Co. of America
today disclosed plans for a $780,
100000 expansion supplementing the
recently completed s26 900 900 build
ing program started in 1887.
President Roy A. Hunt pointed out
that the program, like the one just
completed was based on anticipated
increases in markets for aluminium.
Additions to the Alcoa, Tenn, rolling
mill alone will step up aircraft sheet
production 100000 pounds a month.
The expansion already is under
way with construction of a new
metal producing plant in Vancouver,
Wash, which along with other addl-
tions and betterments in the bauxite,
alumina and metal producing divi-
sions of the company will account
for approximately S1S,0O0,000 of the
$50 100000 outlay.
Major projects in these divisions
along with the Vancouver plant in
clude a bauxite plant in Paranam,
Surinam Dutch Guiana, with a
capacity of 100000 tons of bauxite a
year: new ore carrying vessels for
the Ocean Dominion Steamship Co.
in South American transport; addi-
tions to the Mobile, Ala; Alcoa
Tenn, and the East st. Louis, Ill.
works, and improvements in the
HYDRO electric stations along the
Little Tennessee River.
Facilities of the structural and
merchant mills at Massena, N. Y.
are being increased along with addi-
tions in rolling facilities at Edge
water. N. j., die casting operations
in Garwood, N. j., forging equip.
ment at Cleveland and Los Angeles
and extrusion facilities in Lafayette
Ind.
A substantial portion of the new
construction is planned for New
Kensington, Pa, including a new
metallurgical laboratory, additions
to the melting and heat-treating
facilities of the strong alloy mill
warehouse extensions and expansion
of existing research laboratories.
The recently completed program
included new works in Mobile, Ala;
Lafayette and Los Angeles.
