FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1926, LATZO IS GIVEN DECISION OVER MICKEY WALKER COMES OUT VICTORIOUS x TEN - ROUND EXHIBITION | STAGED LAST EVENING iy SCRANTON, PENNSYLVANIA | (By Ansoviated Prens) | SCRANTON, Pa., May. 21.— Anthracite miners of ‘Wyoming Valley, home of Pete Latzo, went | into the earth today with smiles! and bulging pockets. Pete Latzo, 23, is weltetweight | boxing champion of the world. He got the decision in ten} founds last night over Mickey! Walker, of Elizabtth, N. J., a 2 tol 1 favorite. Walker, who won the crown by | a decision over Jack Britton inj} New York three years ago, in a desperate struggle before | 12,000 fans, most of them friends | of Latzo. Prayers said in region for aesees tn answered. At times blood Seated from the| faces of the combatants, but neith-| er gave an inch. Toe to toe, the! youngsters, one the product of the! city, the other of the country, |” lashed out at each other, first| one and then the other seeming! te have the advantage. Latzo had met Walker before | and suffered. But knowing that many a slen-| der purse had been staked on his/| chances, Pete fought last night as never had he fought before, Latzo soon, learned that he was! fighting the ‘champion’s way and shortly he began to step’ away to Tush in and out with stabbing jolts to the head. In the fifth, Walker's _ short! right opened a cut under the challenger’s left eye, but Latzo! tained blows and drove Walker toa corner. From that ‘time {lie miner ap- peared gaining strength and conr- age. Every chance was met with! a shower of jolts, although he ac- cepted terrific punches to the! head and body. | With the miners standing © on’ their chairs and shouting, the last | two rounds were terrifie, and the} final bell found the boxers slug- ging away at each other with the referee trying to pry. them apart. Two judges for Latzo and ring- side opinion gave him _ five rounds, Walker three, and ‘two even. the’ mining! victory were | { WORLD NEWS IN BRIEF SCCOCeCoESeveececoesence (By Anxocinted Prenny Additional states “agree with France at Geneva that greater security must come before dis- » armament.

The yardmiaster, instead of issuing written ordéfs to be trans- mitted to train crews by rumners, sits at his desk, over which- hangs a “mike,” and gives orders that can be heard thruout the yards. But to get back to the party. At these yards the principle of “humping” is used. By “humping” is meant push- ing a train of cars to the summit of an incline and there releasing the cars one at @ time and guiding therh onto) the desired track by the manipulation of switches from observation towers. On the day of inspection, the patty of railroad executives saw a long train | hump and a sitgle. engine pushing the train to the top of the incline. Then j they saw the yardmaster in his en- closure signal a brakeman to cut loose a car; as it descended they next saw him speak into a microphone, diréct- ing the switchmen in the five towers which one of the 60 tracks the car was intended for. No brakeman to fake a joy ride and a long walk back. And as soon as the cat had passed the seale house, the engincer was signaled to push his train forward, and another car was at fhe top of the hump réady to be shunted “onto its proper track. The voice of thes yardmaster as he issued his orders was amplified. many times. over, and his directions reached! the ears of the meén loud and clear. The system, designed by the West- ern Electric Company, was installed of cars stop at the south/end.of the! ro by the railtoad department of the, Graybar Electric Company.
