LEADER AND RANKING U. S. SENATOR End Comes to Mas- sachusetts Solon ‘After Second Op- eration Henry Cabot Lodge who died yes- terday had served continuously in the United States senate since 1903, as Republican leader since August, 1918, and was one of the most prom- inent members of his party for a generation. Statesman, publicist, author, law- yer an dhistorian, Mr. Lodge's mani. fold activities made a wide impres- sion on contemporaneous events. Chief prominence, perhaps came to him as-leader of the senate opposi- tion to the league of nations and the |’ treaty of Versailles during 1918, 1919 and 1920. As chairman of the Sen- ate Foreign Relations committee and Republican floor leader, he led the ontest with former President Wil san in the fight against ratification. He was the author of the “Lodge reservations” and was credited with 1 large part in moulding the policy of the Harding administration ugainst American entrance into the league, He was born in Ie!sure, but always worked. A principle laid down by him in early life was: “The first thing for a man of leisure to do, if he really, wishes to count in his day and generation, is to avoid being an amateur.” Although he apparently had no intention of practicing law, or the Dest ever, to the F to say have never ma ly land laws, Washington, to polities sitizenship for along with the rary politics. was 60 were required to decide the nomina- tion of his opponent by the congres: convention. he was nominated and ational house tlves, where he served # fore his elect His oratory was distinguished by | G. his practice of sketching in an his- torical background and in quoting apt historical incidents, In an interview in 19 his'career he said: about my opponents, de personal or abusive attacks on Anyone opposed to mes It has always seemed to me that a man in public life stood more strong- his own merits someone else's de- think I may say, have done a great deal of difficult and that public ve his he stood on rather than fects. on he worked on a thesis on Anglo-Sax- which won his his In thes three years that followed he was lecturer at Harvard on American history, and at the age 30 was recognized as an author- itative historian. of books he wrote were blographs of Hamilton and Webster. .

He was re- pted in 1916 for a term expiring in 1923. Seeking re-election in 1922: he was faced with determined opposition within and without his party. In the primary campaign Joseph Walk- er, a former speaker of the Massa- chusetts house of representatives and a former Progressive. was a candidate for the Republican nomi- nation for Senator. Mr. Walker attacked Senator Lodge as being reactionary and as not properly rep- resenting his party, but when the primary votes were counted it was found that the Senator was an easy winner. To oppose him in the elec- tion the Democrats nominated Wil- Mam A. Gaston, Boston lawyer and banker, who made a vigorous cam: paign. Mr. Walker announced his support of Gaston and certain other Republicans came out for the Pro- hibition candidate, John A.

DURING PhoT MONTHS Monopoly of New York Is Detriment to Interest’ Of Fans in Sport. By HENRY L. FARRELL. (United Press Sports ‘Editor) NEW YORK, Nov. 10.—Reflec- tion of the slump in boxing. that has hit New York this season is found all over the middle’ west, it was discovered on a recent. visit. Very lttle “talk could be heard about boxing and when it was mentioned it was not in terms of flattery. New York promoters complain that they can't get the best boxers to work for them and the promot- ers in the middle west say they can't get any kind of a boxer un- less he {a allowed to bring along his own partner and do a dance for a fat purse, ‘The fans, moro exacting and usually better informed than the mob that attends fights in New York, bave found out that they have paid séveral times to see a “grudge'’ fight between two boys in the same stable and they scratched boxing off their lst, There have: bean some good tights around Cleveland where Tommy McGinty ‘has been offering some 00d purses, tit thé bouts in ather leading middle western cities have been no better than they have been for almost a year in New York and WORRY, ANID WORRY Twi MUCH. HOWEVER I'M WILLING TO TRY IT. WALTER FUTTER 2o YEARS 2% Te KNEW HIM WHEN WORE THESE BABY CLOTHES | How | ABOUT THAT TWICE AS that {s saying something, It 1s quite natural that interest in boxing can’t be sustained all over the country through the medium of reading the newspapers. Fans in the middle west haven't been able to see a real big fight since Demp- sey and Willard went in Toledo und they resent the situation in which New York holds a monopoly on all the contests that are worth seeing. Boxers, managers, and promoters around the central states com: plain that eastern boxers, with Mttle or no- reputation, demand the pay and attention of a champion just — be- cause they may have worked tn a preliminary bout in Madison Square Garden, They also accuse eastern boxers of trying all kinds of jobs on_them, From a _ ve reliable MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10,1924. a TITULAR BME 19 DUE IN Worland and Thermop Team Meet to Dante mine Regional Champs, source it was heard that a very well known New York boxer, who fs a contender for the Nghtweight championship, was fighting a Chi cago youngster who is also working for the tile, found a gun in his back recent’y and that he dropped two iron bolts into the water buc- ket and didn’t try to use them dur- ing the fight. This samo eastern boxer’ engaged in a bout sume time before that In New York that had. all the trim- mings of a very queer affair. Interest in boxing has been main- tained in the middle west for years through local prides and home-town idols. ‘Ten years ago.every city of the central states had a home town product that made the fans forget about champions and big fights else- where. ——!

They are all tied up in football, racing, basket ball and baseball and they may not care to see boxing again as they did once.

It seemed an unkind stroke of fate that Haughton should have been taken gway just a few hours after Columbia had scored her greatest triumph in years. by beat- ing the Williams team that had downed the mighty Cornell eleven. Haughton was a great builder and he was just making headway in getting the results at Harvard that had made him a sensation at Harvard when his Crimson teams were almost invincible. After being a football and base- ball star in his college and prep- school days, Haughton started coaching at Cornell, where he was very successful, and then he went to Harvard where hd was a sensa- tion. He established a system at Harvard that has been carried through since he left, but without the same success, because ft was a Haughton system and {t needed a Haughton to make the changes that were necessary to keep it up with a constantly changing game.
