Ex-(hamp Finds Boxing Experience Is Big Aid ~mln Ajmy Bayonet Work Sarron, left, shows similarity of boxing pose to bayonet stance. By WAYNE OLIVER AP Feature Service CAMP BLANDING, Fla, March 12—Get a man who knows how to handle himself in a boxing ring and you have a man with a pretty good foundation for bayonet work, says Petey Sarron, former world’s featherweight boxing champion. Petey speaks from first-hand experience. Army here, enlisted with the 167th tional Guard was mobilized. He's been pressed into service as a bayonet instructor. Standing in front of his class in characteristic ring pose, left foot and left fist forward—but with a at the other routine :workaday| steel-bayoneted rifle in his hands tasks and after hours serves nf —Petey lectured: “You take the same stance and come to guard with the bayonet BRINGIN CAN'T MAKE b ME MIND ws-ncuz 15 WORSE-THE Foav&%_!-en He's a private in the| %about the same as when you face | your opponent in the ring. | Like Throwing a Right “Then you take a long thrust with the bayonet, something like | throwing a hard right—forward | on your right foot—and bank!" | Petey rammed the bayonet into { a dummy, a tightly wrapped bundle of straight, inch-thick tree branch- es, then went on to explain the details of “infighting” after the first thrust.

Petey won his featherweight § | good fighters, with the 31st Divi- title in May of 1936 from Freddie!} Miller and defended it four times, losing the crown to Henry Arm-/ strong in 1837. He quit boxing entirely a year ago and turned to| ru{lmng his health club at Birm- ingham, Ala. Now only 33 years old, Sarron said he had put away enough to assure him a substantial income, “and I wanted to get out while I was still in full possession of my 1aculties—I didn't intend becom-~ ing a punch drunk trial horse.” i Fought 17 Years = | At that, he fought for 17 years |and in some 200 bouts, “and I! was lucky in getting good purses! { —I made $60,000 on my Australia| and New Zealand tour alone.” | Petey expects the Army's train- ing program to do great things for | boxing by uncovering new pros-! pects, | “Some of these boys are natural fighters, although they've never !been in the ring before,” he de- clared. { He pointed out that there was! | plenty of opportunity to discover| sion alone conducting eight bouts weekly in each of 10 rings—a to- tal of 80 per week. They fight for company championships, regiment championships, brigade champion- | ships, and the division title, After that, they’ll siart fighting it out | with other divisions and other | branches of the service. | FUNERAL MAY BE | HELD SUNDAY FOR CONRAD GOLDFIELD Tentative funeral arrangements |for Conrad Goldfield have been | announced for Sunday afternoon at| 12 o'clock.

QUALITY SINCE 1887 Porfage Bay Terminus Is llp,flearing Delegate Dimond Is First Witness fo Appear- Two Proposals By MARY LEE COUNCIL Secretary to Delegate Dimond WASHINGTON, March 8—(Spec- timate for $5,300,000 with which to change the seaboard terminus of the Alaska Railroad from Seward to the head of Passage Canal, Al- railroad approximately 1 miles long from Mile 64 of the railroad to Passage Canal for the purpose of national defense, having been sent to the House Committee on Appro- priations, Delegate Dimond ap- peared before a subcommittee of that committee as the first wit- ness on the subject so that the subcommittee would know about his views before Government offi- cials testified. He told the subcom- mittee that the same objective of safety of the line against possible sabotage or accident could be at- tained by making an earth and rock fill where the big trestle now is, and by substituting adequate | steel bridges for the present wood- | en bridges on the, present line of the railroad between Seward and Mile 64, and that this rehabilita- tion of the line could be made for' probably not more than one-third of the cost of building a new line from Mile 64 to the head of Pas- sage Canal The Delegate further ,urged upon the subcommittee that if it were deemed necessary to follow the ad- vice of the high command of the Army and build the line into Port-! age Bay as a part of the national defense program, then by all means \ard to Turnagain Arm should be [bum across Turnagain Arm from Sunrise to Bird Point and thence! | by way of Indian Creek into An»: | chorage; that the length of the| new road would be built for only; 36 miles and that it could be built | 1ial Correspondence)—A budget es- for approximately and probably not; s more than $1,500,000, calculating| that it would cost $750,000 to build | two miles across the head of Turn-| 4 again Arm from Sunrise to Bird| ing the arrival of a brother, Peteriaska, and to construct a line of Point. It is expected that this con-| struction could be made by a fill, with bridges near the center to; take care of river and tidal flow. It is reported that the floor of | Turnagain Arm at this point is| approximately 15 feet above the| average low tide marking but 1t/ is covered by water at high tide. 1‘ e Principal points of resemblance | between man and the anthropoid apes are the habit of walking erect,! the lack of 2 tail, similarity in teeth, short thumbs and a brain more highly developed than other animals, Try a casstied ad i The Empire YEA- IN THE By GEORGE McMANUS A SWELL 'II'EINXVEM mem' i NOW | AM A DECORATED SEWER- KIN_YOU HEAR SINGIN/ 2 ROOM CURTAINS Reg. 1.50—1.00 pair BLOUSES SPORT OR DRESSY STYLES Reg. 1.95—1.00 ! the present highway north of Sew-| - | Reg. 1.50—1.00 Set RUBBERS MEN'S——WOMEN'S——CHILDREN'S Broken Sizes Reg. 1.00—3 for 1.00 VS.eek to Make U.
