varied II per cent from an an
nual average low in September
to a high in May.
Corn throughout the years has
averaged % per cent higher in
July than in November. Oats have
fluctuated only 81 per cent
low in August and high in Feb
ruary. Hay has averaged ID per

TENDER.
December has been the low
month for soybeans which have

Der. The average annual price
change is 43 per cent.
Dairy products are highest in

By the Associated Press

PANAMA, Jan. 17.-Sandy Sad
dler, printing for February defense
of his world featherweight cham
pionship, scored fifth-rouno
knockout last night over young Fin
negan of Panama.
The lean sniper from Brooklyn
spotting his man TN pounds, showed
q keen fighting edge in swapping
the scheduled 10-round nontitle
bout in half.
He doubled up Finnegan with 9
left to the stomach and Their
smashed him into Inconsistencies
with a right to the head. Saddlel
weighed 127h, Finnegan 1876.
Referee Regelio Pinzon hac
counted three when Fnnegan'i
handlers moved in to- drag him to hi
corner. The time was 1852.
Saddler will defend his title Feb
ruary II in New York's Madison
Square Garden against Willie Pep
from whom he won the crown late
last year.
The champion didn't find the
Panamanian an easy customer
Finnegan came up of the floor In
the second and staged q strong
shird-round furry. He rocked Sad
5ler with a couple of hard blows
yarly in the fifth, opening an old cut
snder the champions left eye.
But Saddler, deciding to put an
end to the business, smashed Finne-
gan to the floor for an S-count, and
after the Panamanian arose wob-
billy, put him away for keeps.

Peace Dove Flies
With AAC to Its
CHICAGO Meeting
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Jan. 17.-All-Amer-
lea Conference club owners meet
here tomorrow. apparently ready
to offer again the olive branch
to the rival National Football
League which begins its annual
midwinter session here Wednes-
day.
Both want peace in their
financially disastrous war and
apparently are prepared to re-
sumo the parley which ended in
a stalemate last month at Phila-
delphia. The AAC meeting orig
inally was scheduled for New
York and its transfer to- this
city is regarded as a favorable
omen.
An amicable conclusion of the
conference, however, is far from
assured. If the All-America
Conference insists on maintain
ing its identity in a revised setup
of the two circuits it is certain
to encounter opposition from
some NIL sources. The latter
are reported interested only IN
bringing the champion Cleveland
Browns and Runner-up San
Francisco 49ers into the National
League, making it q 12-club
wheel, and dropping the rest.

Title for Caps Likely,
But Road 10 Finish
Is Apt 10 Be Rough

The Caps took another licking
yesterday-by 92-70 from the Stays
in Chicago-and probably will take
several more before their Basket
Ball Association of America season
ends March 10 against the New
York Knickerbockers here. That
early season squirt, which put them
far ahead of the field, was partly
due to the schedule.
We figured to be in first place
by the end of December says Bob
Feerick. I'VE knew the schedule
was in our favor in the early going
and we had to take advantage OF 1t
in order to take the title
The Caps ended the calendar
year with % victories against four
losses and exactly half of the wins
were at the expense of the two
bottom clubs of each division. Provi-
dence, the doormat Of the Eastern
Division, took four pastings from
the Caps while place Boston
took three. Fort Wayne, in fifth
place in the Western division. was
beaten three times. while the sixth
place indianapolis bowed twice to
the Caps. ....-
e'5e Warriors Big Help to Caps.
The Caps also got fat off fourth
place Philadelphia with three
triumphs in as many outings, The
Warriors, with Joe Fulks and Big
Ed Sadowski in the lineup, have
been the surprise fops Of the
league, winning only Is of 80 games.
So far this year, the Caps have
won five of eight games, good
percentage in a tough league. Their
position is fairly secure, for even If
they win only half of their remain
ing rs games, the second-place
Knicks would have to take 81 of
their remaining % to tie with the
Caps for the title. Third-place
Baltimore would have to win % of
its remaining rs games to tie the
leaders.
That pasting by the Stays followed
the pattern of most of Washingtons
defeats. In six of their seven set
backs, the Caps have gone down by
margins of IA, 16, 10, 20, % and %
points. Only one loss-a 3-point
overtime affair to st. Louis-has
been close.
ID. c. Pros Shoot Poorly.
Again it was the same story with
most of the Caps having trouble
finding the basket. Jack Nichols,
the newly signed pivot man, led the
Caps with Is points-his high total
to date-while Bones Mckinney got
13, seven from the charity stripe.
