DURELY
/ Official
By BALLOT BOX


Don't be surprised if, when the
State Legislature meets in January,
Harold Sothern, of Prince Georges
County, is named president of the
Senate, and John Luber, of Balti-
more City, speaker of the House.
l understand that Senator Tyd-
ings' candidate for the Senate presi-
dency is Joseph Byrnes, of the Fifth
District in Baltimore, but since Tyd-
ings couldn't even deliver his own
district in the recent State elections,
l doubt if his wishes will carry much
weight.
From what / have been able to
find out. Governor Elect Lane will
have little or no opposition, should
he decide to ask for a bill cancelling
the carry-over appointments of those
holding key appointments in the
State. The terms of Office of these
O'Conor appointees were extended
by the 1945 legislature, with the re-
suit that, if they are allowed to stay
in office until their present terms
expire many of them will be in office
for at least two more years.
Those to whom l have spoken,
recognize that such a situation is
unfair to the incoming Governor and
predict that it will be corrected soon
after the legislature convenes.
And this brings up a mighty in
teresting question. Where will
Brook Lee fit into the picture?
There just isn't any way of get
ting around the fact that Brook Lee
played a large part in getting the
nomination for Lane, and it is COM
mon gossip in political circles in
Baltimore that Lee was slated for
the post of chairman of the State
Road Commission.
But, on the other hand, there
isn't any way, either of getting
around the fact that Montgomery
County, in the recent elections
notified the State Legislature, in nc
uncertain terms, that the county was
definitely through with Lee - and
his political machine.
The $64 question is: Will Cover
nor Lane appoint Lee to a State
Office, and, if he does can he get the
appointment confirmed?

Hayes TO Try
Again Monday
BY CHARLES p. WARD

Charley Hayes is not super
stitious. He spent 30 months in
the navy air corps without ever
once seeing a gremlin. He doesn't
believe such things exist.
Nevertheless Hayes will be
pleased when he gets his four
teenth professional fight behind
him. He has had 13 so far and
will meet Buster Peaks at Arena
Gardens Monday night in what
he hopes will be the fourteenth.
This is the second time No. Ia
was scheduled for Hayes. He was
TO have met Eddie Taylor at
Arena Gardens two weeks ago
but Eddie decided to take a walk
for reasons best known 10 him
self, so they didn't fight. Edwsrd's
Dan O'Leary act cost Hayes $500.
LAST LOCAL BOUT
Mondays bout between Hayes
and Peaks may be the last De-
troit bout for both for some time.
After the contest Hayes expects
to have his tonsils removed.
Peaks expects TO leave for Cali
fornia shortly after the bout. He
is scheduled to meet Fifty Fitz-
patrick there in a bout scheduled
for early February.
Hayes decided to have his ton
sils removed for other reasons
besides the sound one that physi-
clans recommended that he do so.
He wants to gain enough weight
TO permit him 10 fight as a full
size light heavyweight and also
acquire all the stamina he can.
When Charley was discharged
from the navy he weighed lS0
pounds but when he started to
train he quickly got down to 169
Since he is five feet, IL inches
in height, he feels that he can
carry It's pounds and still be
speedy.
HAYES FAVORED
On past performance Hayes
should be the favorite TO defeat
Peaks. Charley defeated Phil
Muscato, of Buffalo, now the
worlds fourth ranking light
heavyweight. according TO The
Ring. boxing magazine. Peaks
was defeated by Muscato,
The bout between Hayes and
Peaks will head six bout pro-
gram, which includes a six round

son. Both are from Detroit.
