Monroeville had appeared fairly impressive in recent games blit provided little opposition for the Commies, who played the entire, game with two substitutes in the i lineup. Murphy, injured Wednesday night, did not appear at all.

LOUIS SCORES EASY VICTORY l Joe Louis Scores Technical K. O. Over Uzcudun In Fourth I ———— Madison Square Garden. New York, Dec. 14.—(U.PJ—With a bolt of brown lightning, young Joe Louis last night blasted the armour from Paulino Uzcudun's ancient fiame and smashed him to the 1 canvas for the first knockout in the Spanish “iron man's" long ' career. ' It was a technical knockout that cajue at 2:32 of the fourth round. Referee Arthur Donovan stepped ‘ in mercifully to halt the batter- ■ Ing. as the stunned Basque wood- ' chopper staggered helplessly about the ring. ' Donovan stepped in as the lithe ' Brown Bomber was smashing his helpless opponent, who had just risen from the canvas after the ' count of nine. A short straight I right that exploded on Paulino's grs.nite chin like a field shell i crashed Uzcudun to the floor and slid him half under the ring rope.*. Blood trickled from Paulino’s, platinum-tipped teeth as be chewed the air, eyes glazed and arms hanging to the canvas. He tried to rise, fell over on his back, and then struggled to his feet. The 36-year-old Basque staggered toward a corner, after his first trip to the floor in 13 years of fighting, as the 19,000 fans screamed for the kill. Louis shuffled toward him, smashed him with two rights and a left to the jaw that sent Uzcudun back on his heels. He was about to bash him again

More than 100 representatives, delegated by various business associations in each field to be covered, met with census officials and formulated the questions to be asked.” Retail trade will be divided into two size classifications: stores with total sales of $50,000 and over, and those with sales of less I

than $50,000. Commodity data will bo sought from the larger group and from all wholesale establishments Including exporters, importers, and limited function wholesalers. i j Fort the find tine, Mr. Schwartz announced, the census includes banking and finance for the entire range of commercial, agricultural and mortgage und personal credit ‘ finance aa well as security brokers and dealers. Construction, including building, highway and heavy construction by contractors is included again, as 'in 1929. General contractors, j operative builders and sub-contrac-I tors are to be covered. Highway and street transportation. including trucking for hire and bus operations are incltiued ,in the census for the first i“ne. Commercial warehousing is inI eluded in the comprehensive plans ' announced today. A census of the business of op i erating office, commercial and othier non-residential buildings will be niade in the cities of more than 10.000. For the first time the operations of insurance companies, agents and brokers, real estate brokers and dealers, management and rental agents as well as the business aspects of non profit associations and organizations of every type, (exclusive of religious bodies* are included in the census. >he census of service establishments, which in 1933 included only personal, business and mechanical i epair services, is extended in the plans to include certain classes of professionally-trained persons. Mr Schwartz explained these include advertising counsellors, architects, auditors, certified public accountants. engineering services, private detective agencies, market re-; search services, map drawing and cartography services, and sales consultants. Theaters and hotels are to be covered as in 1929 and 1933. he said. , Mr. Schwartz declared the present census is In answer to the request of business for dependable 193.
