Mandell May Sign to Meet Boston Boxer Sammy Reported Considering Title Bout With ‘Honey Boy’ Finnegan. BY BERT M. DEMBY, United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Jan. 31.—The National Boxing Association’s ultimatum to Sammy Mandell apparently has had some effect, for Eddie Kane, the lightweight champion’s manager, announced today that Mandell was considering an offer for a title bout. The offer, Kane said, came from Promoter Eddie Mack of Boston, who was willing to give Mandell $50,000 to fight “Honey Boy” Finnegan of Boston for the championship. Mack, according to word here, plans to hold the bout in one of the major league ball parks next summer. Kane said he favored acceptance of the offer, provided Mandell and Finnegan could get together on “certain terms and rules” to govern the fight. Mandell has spent eighteen months barnstorming about the country pushing over home town favorites.

FUTURE AID IS ARRANGED FOR ARNOLDFAMILY Legion Auxiliary Will Take Over Fund, Administer It for Widow. Plans for the permanent relief of the family of Leßoy Arnold, victim of a hit-and-run motorists, were begun today, as contributions to The Times Leßoy Arnold Family Relief Fund continued to pour in. The auxiliary of John H. Holliday Jr. Post, American Legion, through Mrs. Alice Templeton, 6230 Park Ave., president, today agreed to administer the fund which Times readers are creating. Arnold was an ex-service man, having been discharged from the Regular Army at Ft. Benjamin Harrison in 1925. While the Legion auxiliary primarily is concerned with affairs of World War veterans, the Holliday post consented to aid in the Arnold relief movement as part of its program of civic activities. Wide Experience in Relief The auxiliary has had wide experience in relief for families of exservice men. Since organization soon after the end of the World War, the auxiliary quietly has aided many families of veterans. Mrs. Templeton appointed Mrs. Lloyd Claycombe and Mrs. H. Weir Cook as a committee to administer the fund. These women will consult with Mrs. Arnold, who still is In city hospital with her 3-weeks-old baby, and with her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hendrixson, 2944 Schofield Ave., about the best means of utilizing the fund for the permanent welfare of Mrs. Arnold, the baby, and the 17-months-old son. In this they will have the advice of Edward B. Raub, treasurer of the fund. Raub is vice president of the Indianapolis Life Insurance Company. Society Not to Handle Fund None of the money will be permitted to be administered by the Family Welfare Society or any other agency connected with the Community Fund. The Family Welfare Society finally became interested In the case Monday, after The Times repeatedly had called attention to the facts, and left $25 at the Arnold home. Meanwhile, coal and groceries enough to care for the immediate needs at the bereaved home had been provided by agencies which had heard of the case through The Times. The legion auxiliary committee will see to it that none of the relief measures, if any, provided by other agencies are duplicated, to the end that the contributions of Times readers may be used to do the most permanent good. Among those most interested in Mrs. Arnold are employes and offlcails of the Postal Telegraph Company. Mrs. Arnold was a Postal Branch manager before her marriage. Postal employes are raising a fund MOTION PICTURES ~

Fredrick, Kokomo, Indiana State Chamber of Commerce president, today became the fourth entry in the race for the Democratic nomination for Governor.

My friends seem to feel that I have capabalities which fit me for the important job at hand, and although I have never been politically ambitious, my sense of obligation as a citizen compels me to be of whatever public service I may.” Fredrick declared Indiana needs “to re-establish honest and popular government and co-ordinate our economic and moral forces with a definite common objective for the general welfare.” “This can only be accomplished,” he said, “by applying the same sound business principles to the administration of our State affairs that we apply to the successful prosecution of our businesses. To such a course I pledge myself in the event of my nomination and election.” Is Former Physician Fredrick was born in Randolph County sixty two years ago. He was graduated from Heidelburg College, and the Cincinnati Medical School. After practicing medicine at Ridgeville, Ind., four years, he removed to Kokomo in 1896, and was instrumental in organization of the Kokomo Steel and Wire Company. The three candidates for the Democratic gubernatorial r omination whose announcements preceded that of Fredrick are: Frank C. Dailey. Indianapolis; George E. Hershman, Crown Point; and Samuel B. Wells, Scotsburg. Frank P. Baker, Indianapolis, and Olin Holt, Kokomo, have indicated they will seek the nomination.
