N J., June 10. -<U.R) I—Max Baer will not put >n the' gloves again until he mee's James: J. Braddock in their heavyweight title bout Thursday night. The champion completed his boxing yesterday when he enge.ged in an eight-round workout, using his right hand frequently during wo rounds against Eddie Haughton. Baer has used his right very little in training because of an injury suffered

in an exhibition bout against Eddie Simms in Cleveland. There is a slight chance that Baer's righ hand may be “doctored" before he goes into the ring! against Braddock. Baer will weigh about 210. Baer will remain here until the day of the bout, engaging in regular exercises. . New York. June 10.-(U.R) —Janies J. Braddock planned to work out today in a downtown gymnasium, j H • left his Loch Sheldrake camp | yesterday at er six weeks of train-! fag. The challenger will weigh about ' 195 and believes he is in the best J condition of his career. Betting odds continue to favor Baer at 5-1. with no Braddack money in sight.

SANE SWIMMING URGED BY BOARD State Medical Association Issues Swimming Precautions Indianapolis, June 10. — "Drownings do not account for all of the deaths that occur each summer from swimming." says the health bulletin Issued today by the bureau of publicity of the Indiana S ate , MedicaJ Association. “Although swimming is one of ' the finest of all recreations, the safe and sensible swimmer is quick to recognize that a number of health hazards are associated with swimming which should be known and avoided. Neglect in guarding | a.gainst these hazards may result | in serious injury to the swimmer s health and may even result in endangering his life. “Few persons attempt to acquaint themselves with 'he sanitary environment or quality of the water in which they swim. There is a blind trust in the supervisory authority of an official supposedly on constant w» ch. Frequently, however, such sanitary supervision is either not exercised or the supervision is so nominal or unskilled as to afford no adequate protection. Do not go into a public pool unless those in charge can show you satisfactory reports from the laboratory’ of the Indiana Staje Division of Public Health or some other accredited laboratory. These reports should be made every week during the summer for each pool. “Swimming places in streams should not. of course, be exposed to the discharge of raw sewage. The presence of garbage, refuse or waste is evidence of con amination sufficiently grave to warrant the exclusion of bathers. In order to be reasonably certain as to the sanitary quality of water in swimming places, cthe advice of the loca.l or Indiana State Division of Public Health should be sought and followed. “Among the many simple rules for a swimmer to follow’ are: (1) Do not go in the water when overheated. Failure to observe this rule may cause cramps. (2) Do not swim immediately after eating. An interval of ax least two hours should elapse. (3) Do not swim until over-tired When this is done the splendid tonic effects of swimming are lost and an undesirable reaction is substituted. (4) Do not 101 l in the water for several hours at a time. To obtain the beneficiaj effects of a swim one should not ‘remain in the water longer than thirty minutes at a time. (5) Do not follow the practice of ‘drying off’ often in a chilly atmosphere. Take a brisk rub after each swim and change into dry clothes instead of ajlowing the clothing to dry on the body. (6) Avoid contaminated streams or pools as sinus disease and ear trouble are some'imes caused or aggravated by unclean water. MAN~ WIFE ADMIT CONTINUED FROM FACE ONE their prisoners to a prison, although the local jail and the Utah penitentiary were offered. The Waleys wfere expected to be taken to Tacoma by airplane today to fax-e the boy victim for identification. Acting Chief of Police O. B. Record said Mrs. Waley had nothing to do with the actual crime, but she was caught passing ransom bills. Mrs. Waley is a small woman, jus’ five feet three inches tall. She is 23 years old, weighs 120 pounds, and has brown hair and blue eyes. Agents described her as "plain." She speaks with a German accent and her face is too broad to be pretty.

Downfall of the kidnapers wa.s brought about by a trail of $5, $lO, and S2O bills. Before Weyerhaeuser paid the ransom the serial number of every one of the federal reserve no'es making up the $200,000 was listed. These numbers were circulated to every bank, federal reserve branch, and clearing house in the country. Mooney spotted Mahan yesterday in a gray-green Ford sedan stolen recently from a Utah farmer. Recognizing a stolen car. he started to make an arrest. Mahan saw him, leaped from the car, and escaped. In the luggage compartment Mooney found $15,000 in ran“Yes, sir, you get just what you pay for in this world. For instance, the service of cleaning clothes. There are more cut raters in that business than any other line I know. But my experience has been that when they cut a rate, they also cut the quality of the work, so I stick to Farr-Way Cleaners. I know I get a square deal there.’’
