Him June Shot
AtChdmpion
Good Cote Promised
For Scrop Between
Wrought-Up Foes
BY SID FEEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer


NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-This could
be mighty unlucky Friday-the-
18th for Sweet William Conn, the
Pittsburgh pretty boy who is re-
garded as a very valuable piece of
bric-a-brac in the fight games
showcase.
Sweet William collides with
humping Tony Zale in Madison
Square Garden along about 10 pm.
(E. w. t., and, while all signs point
to a victory for the Smokytown
Irishman, there's always the pos
sibility one Of those accidents might
happen.
If the middleweight boss pulls one
of these, it would go a long way
toward singing a swan song for
Blly's shot at the heavyweight
championship and a potential half
million dollar gate with Joe Louis
in their scheduled return match this
June.
For Tony, defeat wouldn't be too
tough to take. After all, he's only a
middleweight, and if he loses, it can
be brushed off with the explanation
that he didn't pick on some one his
size. He expects to come in at 1853
and the contracts call for Conn to
weigh no more than IT'S. This may
cause some confusion at the official
weigh-in at 1890, because Sweet
William wound up his training yes
terday scaling in the neighborhood
Of 178. Zale'S manager, Sam Plan,
sair If Conn were that heavy there
would be considerable noise coming
from his corner.
What with Billy. supposed to be
somewhat peeved atTony and Tony
ditto at Billy, this shindig promises
to be more than q hot game Of
patty-cake. The result is that the
faithful having been doing pretty
well by the box Office, and Promoter
Mike Jacobs figures some $4,000 or
$4,000 customers will chip in pot
of s5o,0o0 or more.
The majority of these citizens
expect to see Conn do quite a
painting and decorating job on the
Man of Steel from Gary, Ind.
The betting boys and girls have
Billy a 1-to-5 favorite, with very
little investing going on by the
folks with a bob or two. This cor
ner tabs Billy as such good
thing" he'll probably stop Zale, say
in nine rounds or so, even though,
as q kayo specialist, Conn is said to
be quite q rhumba dancer,
In meeting the good little man
from the steel mills, Billy faces a
right-hand hitter who has been
called the best body puncher since
Paul Berlenbach. But you can't
overlook the fact that Conn took
Joe Louis depth bombs for a dozen
rounds last June without asking for
armor plate.
Some of the tub-thumpers would
have you believe that the beating
Billy took then, plus his recent mar
riage, have had an effect on Conn
and Tony will show it up. But, since
Conn hasn't displayed any such
signs up to now, this is strictly
guesswork, like naming the number
of beans in the jar in the store
window.

Mountuin States
Wur Front

The increasing necessity of
combating initiation and divid-
ing scarce goods fairly, plus the
expanding needs of the armed
forces, lend-leaSe and countries
occupied by U. S. military forces,
were major features in the deci-
sion to institute point ration
ing" early in 1943, the office OF
price administration has an
nounced.
The United Nations are now
estimated to be producing
twice as much in combat arma-
ment as the Axis; and by the
end of next year, the United
States alone will produce almost
as great a volume of weapons
as the rest of the world COM
bined, Glen w. Collins, regional
OPA administrator, pointed out.
In order to obtain this vast
output of war goods, civilian
goods and services must be cut
to a minimum. Not more than
rs billion dollars worth OF
goods and services will be avail
able to American civilians next
year.
"At the same time, our total
national income has been ris-
ing steadily until it has reach
ed about lis billion dollars a
year, even with taxes taken out
of the total. That means that
for every $1.15 we have to spend,
there will be only IS cents worth
of goods on counters.
Competition to buy scarce
goods forces the cost of living
higher. We must rely on price
control and rationing to check
this rise. And we must rely on
both coupon rationing, with
which we are already familiar
and on the new system of point
rationing'."
High point values will be
assigned to scarce commodities
and low points to those which
are plentiful, Collins said. The
consumer will be free to spend
more of his points for scarce
items or consume larger amounts
| of loW-point abundant foods
/ that may be substituted for the
scarce ones.

Machinery which was "froz-

been officially interpreted to
mean only that machinery in
mines which were operating on
or after Sept. II, 1941. In the
second action, several mines
closed by the LOB order have

tinue to remove ore already
broken and to refill stops with
waste, provided the work is done
by elderly or infirm men who
could not transfer to the mining
