Famous Referee

AS a heavyweight champion
of dubious authority, Tommy
Burns was a great globe-trotter
and as adept at the game of
tag. He led Jack Johnson a
merry chase around the world
for a couple of years before Lii
Artha caught up with and tag
ged him for keeps in IA rounds
in Sydney, Dec. 26, 1908.
Burns, real name Noah Brus-
so, born of French Canadian
parents at Hanover, Can, June
II, 1881, was a chump among
champs and a champ among
chumps in the ring.
While there may be room for
argument as 10 who was the
greatest heavyweight champion
up to the retirement of Gene
Tunney, there's no question that
Burns was the worst. He was a
chunky little fellow, ST, $50,
deep cheSted, and his unusual
width of shoulders gave him
added reach.
Thomas took little a long
way, had keen business sense.
Not even Luis Firpo, Wild Bull
of the Pampas, could hold a
candle to him when it came to
extracting the last dollar out of
matches.
TITLE WAS LYING AROUND
Burns flourished at time
when the class was at extremely
low ebb. Jeffrics retired after
destroying all contention, leav-
ing his mantle to Marvin Hart,
at best third rater. Burns
claim to the title was based on
his defeat Of the Kentuckian
and a triumph over Philadelphia
Jack OBrien, virtually a light
heavyweight.
Burns knocked out Boshter

pion of Australia, in a round at

THAT CRICKET
(NeW York Times)

The cricket is a small black, ambu-
latorv noise surrounded by a sentimental
aura. On occasion it lives in the open
fields. but its favorite habitat is behind
couch or under a bookcase in room
where somebody is trying to read 1t has
six legs. which make it an insect two an
tennae, which make it a creature OF SEN
sitive feelings; two wings that can be
scraped together, which make 1t nul-
Sance.
Only the male cricket scrapes its wings
together TO make its characteristic noise
or song. as some insist on calling 1t.
The female has more important matters
TO attend to. Houses where people wish
to read are chiefly inhabited by male
crickets S. II. Scudder, the entomologist,
found a good many cricket's notes are
pitched in E natural, two octaves above
middle C. We have found that many
house crickets are flat, and presistently
so. We have also found that while the
cricket's customary tempo is eighty beats
to the minute, it occasionally skipts half
a beat. Perhaps it has a bad heart.
Few adult crickets are supposed to
survive the winter in cold climates such
as ours. But few adult crickets in this
latitude know when winter begins; they
start scratching wing on wing in August
and keep at it until the wings are quite
worn out. Their wings are very durable.
And a new crop of crickets is hatched
each spring.

Government Tries
To Sell Foods
Held in Surplus

WASHINGTON, Sept. 90. (UP)-
Increasingly large quantities of gov
ernment-owned food are being re-
leased to civilians as the war food
administration pares stockpiles in
preparation for the end of the war
in Europe, VIA officials disclosed
today.
During the last 10 days, 1t was
said. VIA has offered for sale
l BAT tons of raisins, $4,000 cases OF
snap beans, 10000 cases of canned
peas, 5000 cases of canned tomatoes,
$4,000 cases of catsup, $1,000 boxes
of prunes, and 5000 cases of canned
corn. All were from the 1912 or 1945
packs.
Food sales from the vast govern
ment stores began early last May
and at the end of August totaled
S22. .225 600. However, of this amount,
sales of eggs and egg products
bought as a price support measure
accounted for more than $l5,00O,-
600. Only in recent weeks have size
able quantities of other foods been
declared unnecessary for war pur-
poses and offered to civilians.
Officials frankly are concerned
over signs that the civilian market
can not absorb any great quantity
of food from government stockpiles
on top of current production. Trade
channels already have shown re-
luctance to buy back the one or two
year old stocks offered to them.

criticisms of the new deals incompetent
cy is a straightforward presentation OF
witnesses and citations from the RECORD.
His witness to the assertion by Selec-
tive Service Director Hershey that we
can feed them in the army as cheap as at
home" is The Stars and Stripes, news
paper of the American army-a quota
ton that has never been disputed by ltS
author or the source of its publication.
His witnesses to our utter lack of pre-
paredness for war and our failure TO
achieve preparedness are no less person
ages than Gen George c. Marshall, chief
of staff. and Gen. Henry H. Arnold, ar
chief. whose statements are quoted dl-
rectly from official utterances.
His witness as to responsibility for de-
Law and incOmpetency in war prepara-
tions is no less an individual than Senator
Harry Truman. Democratic candidate Tor
vice president.
His witness for the new deals prolong-
alton of unemployment for seven years
is the report of the American Federation
of Labor, which placed the number OF
UNEMPLOYED in 1910 at more than lO,OOO,-
OGO.
His witnesses to the doctrine of in
dispensability" are Mayor Kelley of Chi
cago. Mayor Hague of Jersey City and
the Democratic candidate for vice presl-
dent.
1t is unfortunate that Mr. Roosevelt
should have chosen to inject buffoonery
and demagoguery into the campaign ana
to indulge in defense based solely on a
CRY of "falsehood." Governor Dewey
properly declares that he will not cam
paign on any basis Of disharmony and
recrimination But he has performed a
repugnant, though necessary. duty in Civ
ing the people the facts and supporting
them with case records and witnesses.
As he tersely puts it. Mr., Roosevelt
asked for it and he got it.
