LEADERS BOTH LOSE MONDAY Giants And Senators Pass Up Chance To Clinch League Titles New York, Sept, lit (UP) With the Major League Pennants coneed d to the New Tors Giants and Washington Senators, the question intrigued the baseball world today was: Which team will clinch their flag first? And after yesterday's comp- tition that saw both nin s defeated, the question might just as easily be: Which team will lost themselves into the world series? Th ■ giants now need only one victory to clinch the National League pennant; The senators need two to give them the American L ague banner. Y sterday each needed one more victory but their gracious second place rivals handed th in a game apiece. The Giants pir'ked up their contest when the Pittsburgh Pirates lost the second game of a double header to ti e Philadelphia Phillies; The Senators when the Yanits dropped a similar contest to the Chicago White Sox. One more victory or another Pittsburgh defeat will give the Giants the pennant; two more vicBIG CARNIVAL on the streets of GENEVA Sponsored by VIVIAN'S LIMBERLOST ORCHESTRA and GENEVA MERCHANTS Sept. 20-23 inc.

KING LEVINSKY WHIPS SHARKEY Chicago Fighter Scores Impressive Victory Monday Night Chicago. Sept. 19— (U.R) —King ! Levinsky, a 23-year old scrapper 1 | from Chicago's west side, threw i off his role as a wild-swinging. 1 i hack alley fighter today and he- ' came a serious contender for the ■ heavyweigh: title lis result of his Impressive victory last night over Jack Sharkey. Levinsky's terrific two-fisted . attack wasn't the awkward, smash ■ nnd take-i: sort of fighting he ; displayed in previous bouts. His . heretofore wild punches landed , with surprising accuracy, rocking - Sharkey to his shoes. la>vinsky whipped the Boston I 1 sailor at his best. Not once did Sharkey lose his head and try to 1 out-slug the husky young product - i of the roaring westside ghetto. He boxed with most of the old-time 1 cleverness that carried him to boxing's peak, hut even his best j defense crumpled against Levin-1 I sky's crushing attack. For Levinsky, the fight meant a big step toward a chance at the title. He went into the ring not - knowing whether he would get a cent for his efforts. For Sharkey, i who was guaranteed $25,000, it ' was a rude jolt in his first attempt | up the comeback trail. But the' ■ former champion went down courageously. He was game to the last bell in face of the Hebrew hoy's savage Mows to the face and ' body. In the first 30 seconds of fight- ; ing Levinsky picked up the margin that resulted in victory. A I terrific right caught Sharkey I squarely on the jaw. The former . champion crumpled to the mat ; for a conn: of seven. Levinsky . charged vicinosly when Sharkey ■ regained his feet but the sailor i ' boxed his way out of the crisis. Sharkey didn't fully recover until the third round. After Levinsky' had pummeled him hard in, I the second as he strove for a knockout. Sharkey came out fast to meet Levinsky's rush. Levin-' sky waved for Sharkey to come 1 on and he did. driving both fists. I Sharkey broke even on that round i and won he next one as he spun , I Levinsky around with a left hook, i From there on the former champ put up a game but losing battle. The blow in the first : round had left is mark and the' ■ kingfish piled up enough points j to win. In the last two rounds Levinsky, who had tired consider- ! ably, tried hard for a knockout but Sharkey's clever defense , warded off most of the blows. Levinsky received a unanimous 1 decision from the two judges and

TAX ADJUSTERS FIX RATES FOR COUNTY UNITS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) some of the increase in taxe rates. Valuation is less Two years ago the assessed valuation in Adame County was $32,693.00T.00. A year ago it wgs $24,229.876.00. This year it is only $21,973,133.00, a reduction of 11 million dollars compared with two years ago. The same ratio of loss applies to Decatur’s assessed valuation. Two years ago it was $6.200,000.00. Last year it was $4,849,071. This year it dropped to $4,295,443. The $3.15 rate next year will collect from Decatur taxpayers approximately $135,307.00. Th- $1.95 rate this year will yield about $94.556.7)0 figured on the higher valuation figure. Used Tax Figures The figures and information (which County Auditor Glen Cowan compiled, relating to revenue to I be received by the townships, school boards and corporations during 1933 and 1934 were of great assistance to members of board in determining their action on appropriations and levies. Mr. Cowan prepared a table showing the amount of revenue each taxing unit would receive from the intangible, excise and gross income taxes up to January 1, 1935. These credits were deducted from the amounts which the township or school hoard required in funds raised by taxation. In every case the amounts prepared by Mr. Cowan were higher than the estimates listed in the budgets and consequently reductions were permitted through this system of accurate figures and totals. In several cases the only teduc-

tion in levies resulted in the additional state income figured by Auditor Cowan. The board did not make any arbitrary cuts in any of the proposed rates, proceding on the assumption that the estimates prepared by the trustees and other tax making officials were near the amounts required by the unit in conduct of business. This year many of the townships, school boards and corporations and even the county, will greatly reduce the cash surplusses or working balances carried heretofore and more drastic cuts again this year would mean bankruptcy for several of them, members of the board stated. The board gave each tax making ' official and opportunity to present ! his case and on special blanks prei ;>ared by Auditor Cowan the esti- ; mates were listed. Later the board ' went over the figures and where reductions' were possible they were 1 made. Board Adjourns The Tax Adjustment Board adjourned this afternoon after reviewing all the budgets submitted. I The estimates prepared by the tax making officials were either approved or changed as the board saw fit. Levies for the tuition or special school funds In every one of the 12 townships were reduced , below the estimates submitted to •the board. Reductions ranged from lone cent to 40 cents on the SIOO. The board convened Monday morning and such rapid progress was made that scheduled hearings I were advanced yesterday. All of the township trustees, except Kirk--1 land, Preble and St. Marys town- ; ships were heard yesterday. To--1 day the board had to give attention oly to th-se three townships and to the county budget. • o RESIGNATION OF PRESIDENT MARTIN ASKED ■ CONTINUED KROM PAGE ONE) his official hostess.
