zaIe Heads Poor Crop
OF Boxers, Nabbing
Two Top Awards
BY the Assoeiofed Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-Rounding
out monopoly" only one other
|beak- buster ever enjoyed before,
Middleweight Champion Tony zale
has won Ring Magazines ranking as
fighter Of the year." to go along
with the Edward J. Neil Trophy he
was awarded as the man who did
the most for boxing in 1916.
Less than two weeks after the
Boxing Writers Association voted
him the Neil Trophy, the man OF
steel from the steel mills of Gary,
Ind, filled out the priced double.
The award by the magazine was
made in a copyrighted article in the
February issue, which included
Rings 10th annual ratings Of the
worlds fighters and which asserted
fatty that 1916 saw fewer talented
thumpers in action than at any
time during the last decade" in
spite OF gates that were extremely
high because war money was still
available to the average fight fan. "
Only Joe Louis, head man Of them
all, ever came home with both of
the fight games most coveted
awards in one year. That hap
pened in 1941. The Brown Bomber,
Ring announced, wound up second
to Zale this time, off his return
bout victory over Billy Conn and
his quick knockout of Tami Mau-
riello. Zale's seven straight knock
out wins, topped of by his thrill-a-
second job Of hattening Rocky Gra-
ziano in September, won him the
honor, however.
None who witnessed Zale's thrill
ing performance against Graziano, u
wrote Ring Editor Nat Fleischer in
| the article, lever will forget the
flght in which Tony picked boxing
of the floor where it had been left,
in the estimation of the public, by
the Louis-Conn fiasco."

Big Nine Quints Facing
Tough Tests as Title
Race Is Opened
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Dec. 30.-Three strong
title Illinois, Iowa and
Wisconsin-will get their severest
tests this week as the Western Con-
ference championship basket ball
race jumps off.
Four conference games are on tap
and there isn't snap pick in the
lot. All promise to be tough en-
counters, typical of the title cam
paign which figures to be as unpre-
dictable as the football champion
ship chase.
Hardest job of the week falls to
the Wisconsin Badgers, who will
open the conference season Wednes-
day by entertaining Illinois before
travelling to Iowa City Saturday to
face the Hawkeyes. Unbeaten Iowa
not only has the most impressive
preliminary record of six straight
wins but also boasts the leagues
best scorer in 5-foot-9-inch Murray
Wier, who has averaged II points
per game.
Other Big Nine engagements Sat
urday will send Minnesota to Ohio
State and Northwestern to Michi-
gan.
The Gophers were undefeated un-
til taking two successive beatings
| by Washington on the coast, the
latest being a 72-68 licking Satur-
day night. In this defeat, Jim Nc
Intyre, Minnesota's brilliant 6-foot-
9-inch blackboard boss, rammed in
30 points-the top single game pro-
duction Of any conference performer
thus far. Coach Dave Mcmillan
pulled him out of the game for a
much needed rest with 4 minutes to
go with the Gophers leading $3.50
The Huskies promptly rallied and
swept ahead in the last 80 seconds
to win.
Ohio State, after being downed
twice by Washington, also took a
double defeat by California. The
Bears zoomed to a 1895 victory
Saturday night after the lead
changed hands four times in the
last half.
The Michigan-N n-Northwestern game
also should be tops in interest Sat-
urday, for both are capable of pull
ing big upsets while bidding for
the crown. The Wolverines, aided
by the 11-point average of Boyd
McCaslin, and the Wildcats, paced
by Freshman Bill Sticklen and Vet
eran Ben Schadler, who have aver
aged IA and 13 points, respectively,
each lave been beaten only once in

Washington's Capitols carry their
16-game victory chain to Boston
tonight, where they battle the eel

tinction of having downed every
team in the circuit.
The Caps romped over the Sec
ond-place New York Knickerbock-

are expected to have little trouble
with the Celtics.
There may be some difficulty
however, in trimming the st, Louis
Bombers in st. Louis on Thursday
night and the Cleveland Rebels at
Uline on Saturday. The Bombers
and Rebels, occupying first and third
place, respectively in the West
ern Division, are the only teams
with the exception of the Phila-
delphia Warriors who have beaten
Washington.
Early in the season the Bombers
edged the Caps, 70-69, and the Reb-
els pounded out 92-68 win, but the
locals evened things up in later
matches, whipping the Bombers
twice and the Rebels once.

They wind up 1916 activities to-

win will put the local club on top.
The Lions missed a chance OF

New York In front by one point. The
weatherman is credited with an

its "A tie at Baltimore. New York
the same day was scheduled at
Boston, but snow delayed train
connections and the game was post
poned, leaving the Rovers refreshed
for yesterday afternoons game.
That was the Lions third game in
Y hours and, somewhat tired, they
were soft pickings for the New York
outfit.
The New Yorkers skated into a
20 first period lead on goals by
Hub Anslow and Fred Sherry, and
Jim Elliott added another in the
second stanza before Guy Roach
scored for Washington. Buddy Cor
bin made it Al for the Rovers
shortly afterward, and Jack Gordon
and Doug Toole scored again for
New York in the third period before
Jack Riley and Phil Vitale came
through with Washingtons final
scores.
Meanwhile at Boston the Olym-
pics stopped the Baltimore Clippers,
1875, in the roughest game there
this year. The first period, during
which Boston took a Al lead, COM
paratively was calm, but after that
tempers f1ared. Eight penalties, in
cluding three majors for fighting,
were called in the middle session.

Alaska Unemployment Compensation Commission Making Investigations

The Alaska Unemploy m Compensation Commission is con ducting a series of investigations in several different districts of the Territory, according to R. E. Shel- don, Executive Director, to deter mine whether or not there is any basis for reports that some per sons are violating the Unemploy- ment Compensation Law by filing for weekly benefits and not re- porting their earnings, not being available for work or, in some cases, not being able to work This applies mostly to those filing claims by mail from sections of Alaska where there is no eStab- lished Employment Office or Rep rcsentatiVe of the Agency. Mr. Sheldon calls attention to that DrOViS on of the Law which makes no deductions from the weekly benefit amount up to $500 earned in the case of a claimant filing for Unemployment Insurance, and up to $500 in the case of d veteran applying for Readjustment Allow ance.
 Penalties are provided in the Law for violations of this kind, and any such violations found will be fully prosecuted, MT. Sheldon says.
