Thompson Is Local Victor

Elza Thompson today had an-

"other victory to his credit and re-

mained undefeated in local rings. The big Indianapolis boxer won the decision over Pal Silvers last night in the headline bout of the Hercules A. C. card at the Armory. .The New Yorker stayed the full 10 rounds with Thompson, chiefly because of his agility and experience although he was knocked to the floor three times. . Thompson

weighed 216, Silvers, 186.

In the fourth round, after being

floored, Silvers was given a five-

minute rest because of what the commission termed “an apparent low blow.” In the fifth and sixth rounds Silvers was again floored. Thompson's most damaging blows were landed when he backed the New Yorker into the corner. In the most interesting preliminary Pat Durban, 155, Cincinnati, gained the decision in a six-round scrap with Noble Wallace, 158, Indianapolis.. Wallace demonstrated his gameness against the aggressive, stiff punching of Durbin. Johnny McCoy, 162, and Norman Tierre, 160, both of Indianapolis,

substituted for Ross White and

Eddie Van Dever. Tierre won by a knockout in the second round of the

scheduled six.

In the first preliminary Jim Al-

len, 142, Indianapolis, won by a technical knockout from . Spike O’Connell, 140, Jacksonville, . Fla.

Bill Brownlee, 138, Indianapolis, used his jabbing left to stop the aggressive spurts of Billy Sparks, 135, also of Indianapolis. Brownlee won the Seegiion in the four-

rounder.

but because Nova lapsed into frequent periods of physical exhaustion. There were times when it looked as if he might topple over from his own excessive efforts to put over a clinching decision. This situation made the fight closer than it really was. | There was the seventh round, for instance. Nova won this round by a wide margin but at the end he was tired, spent and weary. There was a stretch where he hit Mr. Farr 16 or 17 times to the head without a return. This seemed to be both discouraging and taxing, and he walked to his corner on unsteady legs. At the time he was away out in front. Mr. Farr had won only one round, the third, and yet the uncer-

tainty of Nova’s physical condition, |

due mainly to his own efforts on the offense, introduced a guesswork note. Did Nova have enough stamina to last? Could he stand up for 15 rounds against his opponent's dog-

gedness—that’s about all Mr. Farr

had, or ever had. Welshman Finally

Runs Out of Gas

Nova lost the eighth round; came back to win the next three, was outpunched in the 13th, and looked none too impressive in the early phases of the 14th and then something happened. All of a sudden Mr. Farr came to pieces. It was like pricking a balloon. There was nothing you could put your finger on and say, “that’s what did it.” Between punches Mr. Farr ran out of gas. Nova ‘saw this, just as everybody in the garden saw it. So he started throwing punches with renewed fury. e must have hit Mr. Farr a hundred times to the head. Lefts and rights. Rights and lefts every one hitting its target. And there the Welshman stood, his face bloody, his eyes glazed, his knees shaking, taking every blow with a mocking smirk. The customers started to yell, “stop it.” The arena was in a noisy,

is when a stricken fighter is on the threshold of a knockout. By now it was hard to tell whether the customers wanted to. see the fight stopped or whether they wanted to sit in on another kill.

Stands in There

And Takes It

It was at this point that Mr. Farr converted every customer in the arena to his side. He wouldn't go down. He defied Nova to put him down. He just stood there and looked at his tormentor through blurred eyes and said, in effect, “you can’t make me go down.” And Nova couldn’t. "Once Mr. Farr was so far gone the refree started to count over him as he stood in his own corner, reeiing and rocking. This was when he showed the great pride of a fighting man. He must. have-known he was a beaten man but he-seemed determined to salvage something out of his latest failure—and it was something based on pride. The victory moves Nova up to a point where he becomes an outstanding challenger for Joe Louis’

still a year or two away. Experience Is

{.|Best Way to Learn They pointed out that he didn’t know how to pace himself, which is true enough. This was why he tired so quickly and so often. In these circumstances a good puncher would have knocked him out. It so happens Mr. Farr is not a puncher. If he had been he could have won the fight by a knockout two or three times. Of course Nova is young and not any too experienced. Both Dempsey and Tunney said before the fight he was being rushed too fast. This is open to debate. The only way Nova is going to learn is through competition. We feel he came out of the fight last night a better technician, that|s he learned much more in the ring than he could possibly learn in many afternoons in the gymnasium.

Bruns, 220, young Chicago matman, will engage in a test match against Dorve (Iron Man) Roche, 222, Decatur, Ill, in the semiwindup on the”Armory wrestling card Tuesday night. Roche, an experienced performer, has tossed some of the best in this territory. Bruns is a former Northwestern University athlete and displayed power in beating Jack League last Tuesday. : The return of wrestling’s “cry baby,” George Zaharias, 245, Pueblo, Colo., features the show. Promoter Lloyd Carter is sending John (Wild Bull) Granovich, 240, New York, against the Greek grappler. Granovich, a matman from the “old - school,” relies chiefly on strength to overpower his opponents. He upset the dope several weeks ago by holding Steve (Crusher) Casey to a no-fall, 90minute draw.

Third of a Series

By DON BEATTY World All-Events Champion.

Some bowlers take three steps, some four. I take four steps, not only becduse I am stockily built, but because short steps assure balance and timing. : I wouldn’t advise anybody to take steps that are too long. Better four short ones than taree long, depending on the length of the legs. It is only after considerable practice that a bowler feels whether he is doing the right thing. It is necessary for most bowlers to concentrate on the things that they are doing in order to correct mistakes. The bowler must be perfectly serious when taking his position . ..

In bowling you can be serious and yet be congenial.

Bowling rhythm means smoothness in delivery of the ball and in footwork. Some good bowlers do not. have rhythm, but they are exceptions to the rule. Most bowlers must acquire it before they bowl well consistently. Arm, body and foot movements must coincide. The approach to the foul line must be graceful. There is no strain on the muscles when the delivery is free and easy. The movements of the body and legs should start uniformly with the

Benefits Increased and - Period Lengthened.

The Indiana Unemployment Com-

task of co-ordinating recommendations made by labor and employer groups on possible changes in the Compensation ' Law, following a series of hearings Which ended yesterday. At the closing session, George. Dull, representing the United Autosuggested that benefit payments be raised to a maximum of $18 a week and asked that the compensation period be extended to 18 weeks. - His proposal was similar to those of James Robb, C. I. O. official, and Adolph Fritz, State Federation of Labor secretary, who appeared before the Board earlier. Mr. Robb also suggested that the requirements for eligibility be liberalized and Mr, ‘Fritz asked for

| legislation to make all employers ‘affected by the law instead of those

employing eight or more workers. ‘The Inter-Organization Council,

‘lan employer group, whose repre-

sentatives also testified yesterday, recommended the liberalization of payroll taxes. In an eight-point proposal, the Council also suggested clarification

CITY JAIL KITCHEN T0 HALVE FOOD BILL

Morrissey Expects Large Saving From Addition.

Completion of the new kitchen at the City. Jail is expected to slice the cost of prisoners’ meals 50 per cent, Police Chief Morrissey said today. A $500 appropriation to complete the kitchen was approved by the State Tax Board several days ago. The kitchen will be in use by Jan. 1, Chief Morrissey said An additional $500 was approved to finance the painting and maintenance of safety zones and traffic signals. Work on the zones will begin Monday. Lieut. Lawrence McCarty, Accident Prevention chief, pointed out that zones that were kept in good repair and retouched with paint occasionally, added protection for the pedestrian. “At present meals in the prison cost 20 cents apiece and we estimate that after the kitchen is in use it will cost about 10 cents, Chief Morrissey said. Prison meals to date have been purchased by contract. It has cost the city on an average of $40 a month under this system. An average of 2000 meals per month are served at the jail.

RETIRED POLICEMAN ORDERED REINSTATED

The reinstatement of John Hastings, of 64 E. Raymond St. as a member of the Indianapolis Police Department had been ordered today by Judge Joseph R. Williams of Superior Court Room 2. Mr. Hastings had been retired on pension’ in 1919 because of an illness said to have been contracted while on all night duty at a fire, it was testified. The Police Pension Board, it was said, stopped pension payments last June after Mr. Hastings had been ruled fit to resume duty. - The Safety Board, however, had failed to reinstate him, he said.
