Is Support For Luttrall-
Stewart Main Bout

Local wrestling promoter, Bert
Causey, announced last night that
the supporting feature for the re-
gular weekly show will bring jim
my Coffield and Bill Wentworth,
newcomer to the local mats.
Coffield has established quite a
name for himself around the To-
cal arena. During his numerous
fights here the fans have been
struck by his craftsmanship and
aggressiveness. In all his fights,
including with the unpopular Crap
piers, Coffield has shined through
with the fans on his side.
Little is known of the newcom-
er; his style, shape and other
marking features remain to be
seen in the coming battle.
The feature attraction as an
nounced yesterday pitts Cowboy
Luttrall with the "rougher than
usual Bobby Stewart.
Al Massey, prominent mailman
and former top-flight boxer of
many years experience has been
acquired for the chores of third
man, Causey stated.

Estimated Decline In.Atten-
dance Rated AT 6 To
8 Per Cent

NEW YORK, Sept. 7-tR-Atten-
dance in the major leagues, is
running six to eight per cent be-
hind last years figures, which
reached total of approximately
nine million paid admissions, but
baseball's leaders said today that
they are we'll satisfied with the
1913 turnout of fans.
The American league, President
William Harridge estimated, is
about six per cent under 1912 when
it drew 4,415, 922 for what Harridge
termed splendid year.
1--WE are having what we believe
to be remarkable season through
trying war period" Harridge
commented, despite unprecedent-
ed bad weather in the early sea-
son when the entire first trip of
the eastern clubs into the west
was practically wiped out. We had
is postponements in one week in
May"
The National League, which
drew 4,677.1 1873 last year. is run
ming around eight per cent behind.
President Ford Prick said. but ex-
planned that 'this is really bet
ter than I thought we would be
able to do when we were making
plans for the 1943 season."

After several days of argument,
pro and con, as to top-flight

PUNK Mooring announced last
night that the entire bill has been
completed with an array of local
and out-of-toWn talent.
In the feature the highly rated
Eddie Nader tangles with the up
and coming Wilmington heavy
weight, Bill Wilson. Following a
hard fought draw decision in their
last meeting, workouts for re-
turn bout were started by both
Nader and Wilson, the latter
throwing his amateur standing to
the four winds to open what pro-
misses to be a colorful profession
al career.
Wilson, who has been fighting
in and around this city for sever
al years, has only one loss and one
draw marring his amateur record.
The loss coming at the hands ~
1t Bob Burns in the 1912 Golden
Gloves finale in Charlotte, and
the draw issue after bitter strug-
gle with Eddie Nader in five

Buddy Best, Ray King, and Tom

Wilson will see action in the COM
ing bouts. This litter Of local mug
smashers" have been drilling and
shaping-up for the past two months
with work continuing from day to

tion Wilson, 1875 battles Eddie Ma
der, 1875, of New York ring fame.

signed to forward the security of

The refusal was contained in an
exchange of letters with Foreign
Minister Segundo Storm of h e
South American republic, M a d e
public tonight at the State De-
partment.
Storm in the letter opening the
exchange assured the secretary of
state that Argentine sentiment is
firmly opposed to totalitarian re-
gimes' and that Axis countries
have nothing to hope for from our
government"
The Argentine foreign minister.
writing under the date of August
5. said his comments had the full
approval of President Ramires.
He wrote that he thought it de-
sirable to make direct contact with
your friendly government coin
cident with the trip of Ambassa-
dor Norman Armour to the United
States. and to ''set forth conf
dentially the situation of the new
Argentine government established
as the result of the military move
ment of June A.
Storm said the "evolution' of
the Argentine people toward the
side of the United Nations would
be more rapid and effective if
President Roosevelt SHOULD make
a gesture of genuine friendship to-
ward our people" such as provid-
ing urgently ne airplanes,
spare parts, ornaments and ma
chinery. Such gesture, he said,
would help "restore Argentina to
the position of equilibrium to which
it is entitled with respect to other
South American nations"
Relying on August 30, Hull
wrote that 'It is with regret that
my government and the people of
the United States have been forced
to the conclusion that the undoubt-
ed sentiments of the Argentine peo-
pie have not been supplemented bv
the action called for by the COM
mitments freely entered into by
their government in common with
the governments of the other 20
American republics
Hull bluntly pointed out that the
United States is at war and must
allocate war materials where thew
will be used most effectively for
the defense of tn e hemisphere
against aggression. He added:
"Since Argentina. both by it's
words and its actions, has indi-
Gated clearly that the Argentine
armed forces will not under pres
ent conditions be used in man
ner designed to forward the cause
of the security of the new world
and thereby the vital war inter.
ests of the United States, it would
be impossible for the President
of the United States to enter into
an agreement to furnish arms and
munitions to Argentina under the
lend-lease act"
Hull emphasized, moreover, that
Questions of military and naval
equilibrium as between American
republics are surely inconsistent
with the inter-American doctrine
of the peaceful settlement of in
ternational disputes to which so
many practical contributions have
been made by Argentine states.

Reports from South America il,

Storm frankly was attempting to
