Apply New Year for Whom?

Happy New Year for Whom?
This is the season Of the year
when most people ire hopeful for
better things to come during the
the new year. At the ringside it
is an automatic period Of lull
when people can sit back and
think about what is going to
happen. For whom will 1850 be q
happy year?
The brightest future seems to
be reckoning for wrestlers dur
ing the coming year : at least
until the outdoor season begins.
Not long ago more than $4,000
fans bulged into Madison Square
Garden to see the grunt and
groan artists in action.

one topnotch fighter with color
and appeal? In the Brat they
have a young man the fans love

chooses to fight.

to train and learn to fight and
make it his profession, the heavy
weight and lightheavyweight ranks
are wide open. If he is capable
he has a fortune in money and
popularity waiting for him.
Jake LaMotta and Ray Robin
son, middleweight and welter-
weight champions, have a trust
rating 1850 facing them unless
they fight one another. Jake is
pretty apt to lose his. crown -
the big question is, to whom? He
probably could draw a bigger
gate against Robinson than any
other fighter, even Robert Vile
main. If the Sugar man does not
get a fight with Jake before some
one else takes his title from him,
he may never get a shot at the
100 pound title.
The end ofthetrail will be here
in 1850 for a game little b~attler,
Beau Jack, who earned a fortune
in his rise from the shoe shine
Island to lightweight champion,
but saw very little ofthe money.
Jack was beaten one more last
week this time by a fellow
from Costa RIGA, Kid Portugez.
This should convince the Beau
that his ring days are at an end.
For him there should be some
means in boxing for him to make
a living without becoming punch
ldrunk. Think of Henry Armstrong
another rugged battler, the man af-
ter whom Beau Jack was modelled.
He took a terrific beating in his
final days, and today he is con-
templating going into the min
istry.
Post.Rinp Security
When one does think of ex-
fighters and the rugged times they
have making a living after their
ring days are over one wonders
why there is no form of social sec
urity or insurance for fighters.
Many Sports writer's have pleaded
for some such setup, but nothing
has been done.
In the fighting game the fight
er takes the. greatest risks, does
the work, but does not get the
best Of the deal. The managers
money is sure to come in. The
promoter takes some risks, but one
failure does not mean he is
through. A fighter is active in
the ring when he is in the prime
of life. If he does not makehis
fortune then, he may be stuck
for the rest of his life. In the
days other young men r getting
! their foundations in their fields
! boxers are tearing themselves
down. When they stop fighting

Bill Seeking Debt
Limit Introduced
In Assembly

A bill seeking to raise Montgom-
cry County's bonded debt limit
from 7 to 10 per cent was intro
duced in the House of Delegates on
Tuesday.
The measure, sponsored by the
county's all-Republican legislative
delegation, was requested last
week by the Montgomery County
Council, which was elected under
the county's new "home rule"
charter.
Mrs. Leona M. Rush in a letter
to the press voiced her opposition
to a request by county veteran
groups for legal authority to sell
alcoholic beverages in their clubs.
Mrs. Rush said she did not OBJ
ject to the proposal on moral
grounds and expressed a belief
that veterans would not "abuse"
the privilege if it were granted.
Her opposition is based, she said,
on fears that such legislation
would "open the door" to other
groups that would "abuse" liquor
sales.

The Parents League For
Curriculum Improvements
Comment On Test Results

The results of the standard tests
given last year in the fourth. fifth,
and sixth grades of the public
schools of Montgomery County as
revealed in the Board of Educa-
TONS recent report "Of the Chill
dren," were pointed out last week
by ]. Henry Hiser, president of the
Parents League for Curriculum
Improvement in Montg cry
County, as merely another justif-
cation for the complaints raised by
parents throughout the County
that the children are not being
adequately prepared in the funda-
mentals of learning"
Charging that the results of the
tests "seem to have been soft
pedaled" and that earlier news re-
ports dealing only with an analy-
sis of the tests given in the eight
schools of the Eastern suburban
area did not give the parents of
Montgomery pupils "the whole
story" Mr.. Hiser offered a report
prepared by the Leagues Commit
tee on Research and Archives head
ed by Mrs. Robert Sherwin of Sill
yer Spring.
Mrs. Sherwin's report, based on
figures taken directly from the
Board of Education's report issued
December, 1913, showed that:
All fourth grades in the )coun-
ty average: one to four months
below standard in arithmetic
skills; two months below stand
ard in spelling; seven months
below standard in punctuation;
nine mopths below standard in
capitalization; eight m on tbs
above standard in language u.s.
age "a skill determined largely
by the language a child hears
spoken at home) two to three
months below standard in all the
work study skills; one month
above standard in reading skills.
All sixth grades in the county
average: one to four months be-
low standard in ari h m ic

skills; two months below stand
ard in spelling; nine months be-
low standard in punctuation;
six months below standard in
capitalization; eight m on this
above standard in language US
age; two to three months below
standard in work study skills;
one month above standard in
reading skills.
AL lsixth grades in the county
averages are two to five months
below standard in arithmetic
skills; three m n tn S below
standard in spelling; five months
below in punctuation; one month
below in capitalization; three
months above standard in Ian
guage usage; one to seven
months below in work study
skills; from one below to one
above in reading skillss.
The Committees analysis noted
that "the low ratings made by all
grades Is especially deplorable
when one considers that Montgom-
cry County with it's great wealth,
it's high per capita expenditure for
schools, and its great potential for
achievement, should. be well above
the national average, if that is
what is meant by standard; no.
where in the BOARD of Educa-
tion's] report is any reference
made to national average"
According to Mrs. Sherwin, "The
League is endeavoring to obtain
more specific data from the Board
of Education so that the parents
of Montgomery County may know
the results of the tests in greater
detail" Requesting that she be
spared from specializing as to what
more specific data" might reveal
Mrs. Sherwin commented that
frankly, the League does not un.
derstand why anyone would wish
to resort to the peculiar psychology
of the ostrich in order to create
the illusion of all is we'll =. we
intend to sift the sand, not bury
our heads in It."
