Match NEW YCRK, Jan. 30. — Max Baer, of California, was given the decision over King Levinsky, Chi- cago heavyweight, at the end of ten rounds of uninteresting milling here last night. There were no knockdowns. ‘The decision was unanimous, the two judges and Referez Gunboat Smith deciding that Baer's rights into King's ribs were sufficient to offset the frequent slams to Baer's face, handed out by Levinsky. Baer won five rounds and Levin- sky two rounds, three being even. The boxers did most of their mixing in the last few seconds of each round. Baer weighed 202 pounds and Le- vincky 193% ponds.

The great Syracuse athlete has hung up his spikes' for good and the only chasing he does now is in pursuit of insurance prospects. Didn’t he agree with us that the U. 8. A. had good prospects of re- gaining some lost prestige by romp- ing off with the Olympic short dis- tance races this year up to and in- cluding the 800 meters? “I'll go so tar as to say I think we should win back the sprint championships, even if Percy Wil- liams is back in shape to run for Canada and defend his titles,” said EBarbuti, “but T doubt very much if we win either the 400 or 800 me- ters. Beyond that it will just be a romp for Nurmi and the rest of the Finns.” The reasons? “Well, it looks like we have lost Vic Williams, the Southern Califor- nian who equalled the world 440 record at Franklin Field, due to ill- ness. “Ben Eastman of Stanford is our best prospect at the middle dis- tances and he may come through, but he has not had much. experi- ence. “You will remember that as good a quarter miler as Bud Spencer, also of Stanford, did not even make the 400-meter team in 1928. The best he could do was get on the relay squad. “My main reason for thinking we won't win these races, however, is that other countries, especially England, have better runners. “I understand Douglas Lowe, win- ner of the 800 in the last two Olympiads, is training for a come- back. You have seen him run—and how! He's the smoothest foot- racer I ever watched and a grand sportsman, to boot. “Another great English runneris G. H. Rampling, the quarter-miler, who has been running close to world’s record time. The Germans have scme Jfine quarter ahd hail- “Ladoumegue, the Frenchman, as broken world'srecords for the uarter-mile and mile and he would be tough to beat at the ha... Sera Martin of France has broken the 800 meter record and will have to be figured on. “As T see it, about the only Olym- pic track and field events we can be fairly hopeful of winning are the 100, 200, high jump, pole vault, relays and high hurdles. Last time we didn't win the sprints or the | hurdles.” British Speed Speaking of Ramphng, the Brit- ish quarter-miler, it may be noted | that this runner was clocked in the | phenomenal time of 46 3-5 seconds | for the last 400-meter leg of a 1600- | ‘water relay race in which the Brit-| ish beat the Germans at Cologne late last year. The world's record is 47 seconds, held by Spencer of Stanford, and so far as I know this is the firsttime any runner, evenin arelay, ‘where start, has ever “broken” that time. Lord Burleigh ran on the same team with Rampling. The British were timed in 3:14.6, within a sec- ond of the official world’s record set by an American all-star Olym- pic combination at London in 1928. Are Returning to Bows; Can’t Afford Shotguns WEST PALM BEACH, Fla,, Jan. 30—After 35 years of using the white man’s rifle and shotgun, Seminole Indian hunters are going back to the bow and arrow.. The reason, said Stanley Hansen, friend and advisor of the red men, is because the Indians in many cases no longer have the money to buy ammunition. Continued inroads of sportsmen on their hunting grounds and fires caused by unusually dry weather, have made the life of the Semin- ole huntsman increasingly difficult ‘he past year.

Hall ‘The Loyal Order of Moose, al- ‘ways planning something unique in the way of features, will give a Country Store dance tonight in the A. B. Hall. The music, furnished by ‘the Arctic Players, Harry Brandt, director, will start at 9:30 o'clock and mno matter how cold the weather is outside, inside the hall a hot time is promised. Practically every business firm in Juneau has contributed prizes to be distributed to the designated dancers and these' are worth the price of admission themselves. Many have asked the committee in charge of the Country Store dance if they should dress as farm- ers or in other costumes and the word has been passed back that this will be perfectly proper and will also afford more fun.
