LIGHT SALES
STILL RULE
OVER BELT

Light sales throughout the
Border tobacco belt was still in
evidence today but there were in
dications that the price of tobac.
co was steadily getting better.
Such was definitely the case in
Tabor City. The local market
climbed from an exact market
average last week of $4S.71 to an
average through Tuesday of this
week of $49.2s. This average is
for the entire season and shows
that tobacco prices are definitely
Oil the increase here. This be-
came evident last Thursday when
averages reached a new high and
good prices nave been paid for
most grades of tobacco thus far
this week.
Inc local market also passed
over the 100000 pound mark
Tuesday and latest figures show
that 1,015,532 pounds have been
sold, bringing farmers $5O0,456..
II.
Sales were heavier today WED
nesday) than they were Monday
and Tuesday but there were still
no blocked sales. In so far as is
known, it marks the first time in
history that ten days of the SELL
ing season have passed without
a piocned sale on the Tabor City
market. Last year the first block
|oI the selling season. However,
sales were held on the ninth day
sales on the market here through
Tuesday were still running a
few thousand pounds greater
than at the same stage a year
ago. Both seasons have had light
sales in early selling days be-
cause of the opening of the mar
ket prior to the time farmers
were ready to start selling.
The entire Border Belt has wit
messed light sales thus far and
few markets have sold any more
tobacco than they did a year ago.
Several are running considerably
behind the 1850 sales.

tries behind the iron curtain
The campaign is designed to Gre
ate a better understanding of
America among the peoples of
Russian dominated countries.
Mann pointed out that thi:
small quota should not work a
hardship on anyone. Just few
dollars from those persons who
feel that they can spare them is
all that is needed to make this
drive a success.

EXPRESS Sports Editor

The prize-fight business, like many others, has been quite
stable in the matter of championships in recent months as most sport
writer's agree. Disseminating the British recognition of the title of
heavyweight champion for Lee Savold was n of the Qualifications
made by boxing authorities in settling the issue of who is boxing
champion of the world since Ezzard Charles the Grown from
the Brown Bomber Joe Louis. In the. classification of champions,
there has been only one thleholder for each class from the fly-
weights to the heavies.

weights to the heavies.
Prior to the winning of the
middleweight crown by Sugar Ray
Robinson from Jake LaMatto, the
Pennsylvania Boxing Commission
did recognize the Sugar" as
middleweight champion for sew
eral months, but the Pennsylvania
Commission was the only unit who
took it seriously and gave "Sug-
ar" hat title.
Winning of the title by Robin
son in his recent fight, settled the
issue but left the welterweight
title in a muddle. According to a
ruling of the National Boxing
Commission, again there can be
only one champion for each class,
and according to that ruling the
MIA has declared the title of
welterweight championship vacant.
On March IA they will recognize
the winner of the Charlie Fusari
and Johnny Bratton bout as new
king Of the w%elters on one con-
dition, that the winner fight Kid
Gavilan, the Cuban flash within
As days after the fight.
ON THE OTHER HAND, the
New York Boxing Commission, as
usual where there is the slightest
opening for disagreement, does not
go long with the plans Of the
National Boxing Commission on
this arrangement. 1t is the opinion
of this group that an elimination
tournament should be held in
which the following boxers would
participate: Fusari, Bratton, Gavi-
Ian and Eddie Thomas of England.
Billy Graham was also figured in
the running, but for some I'M
known reason was dropped from
the ranks of a contender for the
tournament. 1t is the contention of
the MIA that the welterweight
title should be filled promptly and
that the soundest idea is to name
the Fusari-Bratton winner as
champion, with Gavilan fighting
for the crown within As days af-
ter. 1t is the opinion of this writer
however, if the title is to be hand
ed out arbitrarily, why not award
it Immediately to the accepted
Number One contender, Kid Cav
ilan, with the proviso he defend
it Immediately against the other
leading welter contenders.
