Farrell, (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Jan. 5,—Benny Leonard and Joe Lynelfl both probably will make an excursion out of their class this year. Benny would Jike to annex the wel- terweight title of Jack Britton gn« the young bantamweight champi6n is looking to the featherweight field for future worlx 6 . Leonard this winter proved conclu- sively that he has not outgrown the lightweight class. He made 134 pounds for Joe Welling, but he wasn’t overly strong at that low poundage. For business reasons, an_invasion of the welter ranks would be profit- able for Leonard, as he is running out of good opponemts among the light- weights. . x 4 Joe Lynch is a Jegitimate bantam- weight. He made 116 pounds for Pete Herman when he won the cham- pionship. - Joe, however, ;can’t keep himself down to that weight very-long without doing great. harm to himself physically. - He’s unusually-tall for/'a bantam and has to-draw himself down so0 fine that he looks like a pale ghost in the ring. His ribs _ poked out through his flesh in the Herman bout like a washboard. . His condition in that bout must not be considered too final, however, as he had been in hard training for two months and had been through four exceedingly hard bouts in a little over a month. After a month's rest in the moun- tains, where he is going to rough it, he will get back into better condi- tion. . For a season or so he can fight dt catchweights after the fashion of most champions and that will not necessitate weakening weight-making. Many boxing critics believe that Lynch at 122 pounds would' be good enough to take the title from Johnny Kilbane, the featherweight king. From all appearances, the Cleve- land Irishman has retired. Before he steps down finally, however, it is I_u- lieved that he would be glad to give Lynch a chance: for the title and if he has to lose it there is mo other fighter he would rather see as his suc- cessor than the present bantam champ. ‘TEXAS ROMANCE 18 SIMILAR TO MOVIE (By United Press) Houston, Tex., Jan. 5.—A prodigal son has come home to Houston—but he's only on a visit—and he’s not prodigaling. . Early this century, Clarence Burg- lhieim, gradnating from high school here, decided he didn’t want to spend wearicome hours learning to be a doctor. But his father wanted him to become @ doctor. He disappeared. In 1902 Burgheim was seen in Cor- into, chiet Nicaraguan port. A friend of the family who saw him, unkempt, ragged predicteg the son would ar- rive home soon a prodigal. In 1910 Burgheim Was next heard from as p physician to the revolu- tionary forces of the republic. Then he was made surgeon general of the rebel forces. In the eight years his family was expecting the prodigal, Burnheim had attended Nicaraguan medical schools. During fighting, the revolutionary forces surrounded a stone church and were making a fight for possession. Suddenly a girl appeared, running across “No Man’s Land.” A bullét struck her. Burg: heim saw her. And like a movie hero, he rescued hey thru a shower of bul- Jets. His surgery saved the womah’s life. Romance blossomed. The revo- lution was successful. The girl's fa- ther, Diego Manuel Chamorro, has been elected president of Nicaragua. They were married a year after he He was sent to New Or- leans as consul general. While in New Orleans he came home—a5s the prodigal son, But the home folks had to kill two calves—— he brought his family. ALLEGED ENEMY ALIEN 1S DENIED CITIZENSHIP ida Grove, Towd, Jan. '5.—John Richard Groepper, an alleged enemy allen, of this city, was prevented from ‘becoming naturalized by representa- tives of the Leo P. McNamara Post of the American Leglon when they | proved that Groepper made false statements on government question- naires. : When Groepper was naturalized some time ago Bruce M. Snell, post adjutant, went before the United __ States court and had the case re- ‘* opened. Snell showed that -Groep- per claimed exemption from military service during the war on the grounds that he ~vas on v alien and thHat in applying aturali- zation, he swcre th°t he narformed his full military duties. The court recently reversed the decision grant- * ing Groepper citisenship rights. .

That the state bounty on wolves be increased from $7 to. $15. That the use of ferrets in taking rabbits be prohibited.

The Northern Minnesota Develop- ment assocjation, the convention of the league of municipalities, and the Northwest Insurance Underwriters did much -to advertise the city as progreseive and beautiful. The fi- nancial aid given the firemen helped much to make possible their secur- ing the 1923 State Firemen’s conven- tion for Bemidji. Funds for the Fourth of July celebration were rais- ed by committees from the associa- tion and the assistance given in or- ganizing a permanent chautauqua association made is possible to put that annpal event on its own re- sources. o ‘The, courtesies extended to ®the body of Commercial Secretaries which visited.

The Red Cross recreational work has been greatly facilitated by the co-operation of the organization and this. it is felt, will be work of last- ing value.

The assistance given in putting over Amendment No. 1. was work that not only aesisted in getting ben- ofeial ‘legislation passed but had the cffect of exciting local interest in the improvement of roads. *+ Wihile all of the above work of the 19sociation was of immense import- ance the most important action taken by the organization really has come at the latter end of the year. The steps that have been taken to securo the valuable Ruggle’s timber and the other timber limits for a park, the plans whch are being taken for the rebuilding of the Birchmont hotel and the big farmers’ dinner rank at the top of all the year’s activities of the.assoclation. They have gained for Bemidji state-wide and ‘even na- tion wide attention. Farm maga- zifies have commented on the farm- ers’ get-to-gether meeting and dinner in a most complimentary manner. 1t has brought much publicity to Be- midji besides: cementing the friend- ¢hip between town and country folks w);:eh, after all, was the desired re- sult. < The co-operation given the poultry association and the Beltrami County Agricultural association in their ex- hibitions and in the re-organization of the latter has mgterially assisted those organizations not only to carry on their regular work but to make plans for the future which will make possible their further development and expansion. ¢ Though not yet assured, the site for the assembly ' grounds being \:;mgh't by the l:cthodht denomina- on ‘for convention: - purposes fair to be located &t Bt‘x’nldpl(l’.. To:g: project, the association has extend-, ed its hearty support and, if thag grounds are eventually located in Bes, midji, it will. wthout.doubt, mean a largely increased -summer visitor trade of a most desirable class. There have been very many other important projects assisted and fost- ered by the association which cannot be dealt upon but which play an im- portant part in the life of the com- munity. The present year has start- Led out with a number of the import- ant propositions carried over from 1920 and still uncompleted but which the near future wiil undoubtedly see. consumated successfully, MEMORIAL TO CLARA BARTON Schos!
