Wins Impressive|y
In Olympic Wrestling
BY the Associated Press

HELSINKI. July %. - Josiah
Henson, the Annapolis CMd.) in
structor who wrestles in the feath-
erweight division, turned in an
other impressive performance in
the third round today in the
Olympic wrestling tournament.
Henson pinned Geza Hoffman
or Hungary in 3 minutes 80 Sec
ondS to remain in the running for
the title as eliminationS narrowed
the fields in every division.
Welterweight William r. Smith
of Cedar Falls. Iowa. won his
match on decision over Alberto
Longarella of Argentina, but Fly
weight Robert Peery of Pitts
burgh, and Bantamweight Bill
Borders of Tulsa, Okla, were
eliminated by Russian rivals.
Peery accumulated five bad
marks" when he lost a decision
to Russia's Georgij Sajadov while
Borders was thrown by Rashid
Mamedbekov.
Under the Olympic scoring sys-
tenn, a wrestler is not eliminated
by a single defeat but must get
five bad marks, given on a gradu-
ated scale according to perform
ance. Thus it is possible for a
winner to be eliminated when he
is given a bad mark for failure to
score a fall.
Another American came through
when Lightweight
Thomas Evans of Tulsa, Okla.
won a decision over Oswaldo
Blast of Argentina, but Middle
weight Dan Hodge of Perry, Okla. =.

a close match by Bengt Lind

Dear Mr.. Glib:

methods or plans for setting up q
local Crime Commission, and about
a national headquarters"
There are no national headquar-
tiers as yet, although at a confer
ence of Citizen Crime Commissions
in Chicago on October 15th-16th,
1851, plans for establishing one
were discussed and a committee is

This conference was under the

Commission, Virgil w. Peterson,
Operating Director, 70 W. Monroe
ST., Chicago 8, Illinois. The Chica-
60 Crime Commission which was
established in 1918 and is the oldest
in the country. 1t has extensive files
and a considerable staff. Most OF
the other Crime Commissions In
the nation are patterned directly
or indirectly on the Chicago Com

investigative office, in charge of q
full-time experienced and sincere
person, who devotes his time to
factual investigation Of the local
problems. His inveStigative files
must be kept secret even from the
membership, until such time as
public action is to be taken on
facts gathered. It is imperative
that the work of the investigative
office be coldly factual and that
extreme care be exercised to in
sure that no. public discloses be
made that are not absolutely true
and provable. Hearsay cannot be
used. Politics can have no part.
For this reason, and almost with
out exception, the more successful
Crime Commissions have selected
for their investigative directors
former F. B. I. Agents. These men
are given such titles as Operating
Director, Managing Di, actor, !"
Chief Investigator etc.
In general, the responsibility Of
the citizen officers, directors, and
membership is to keep up public
moral support and financial s;arr
port. This is difficult end con-
tinuing job, irrespective Of the in
vestigative results.
Crime Commissions throughout
the country have annual budgets
ranging from the SIS, 900. 90 here to
$35, 900. in Miami, $3.50, 10000 in
York City. ALI of these funds come
from private contributions in the
form of memberships" varying
from as low as S1.00 upward. These
funds are to pay for office over
head, correspondence and paid of
flee personnel. Here in Tampa we
have only two paid employees,
| the writer and an office secretary.
This is inadequate here, but all
that can be afforded. The Chicago
Commission has perhaps twenty or
more on the payroll.

the enclosures win be of some help
