Too Old for
Combat Service
By JOE WILLIAMS
Ti Staff Writ NEW YORK, Oct. 20—It wasn't
Just the kind of action Arthur Donovan wanted in this war but it was all they’d give -him—athletic director in the U. S. maritime service. He wanted combat but they told him he was too old. This war has given us a new respect for professional ring men. It has revealed their fighting instincts are authentic enough. Two conspicuous examples, with which we are intimately familiar, come to mind. Barney Ross and Midget Smith, both champions in their days. Three nights after Pearl Harbor: we sat around with Ross in his plush Chicago : bistro, a big monRET ey-maker in the “I'm getting out of this kind of thing and trying for the marines in the morning,” he told us. Some days later we got a card from him postmarked San Diego. o « « “I feel likp a champion again.” .« «» « He had made the marines-and was awaiting orders. It was at about this time Smith called on us in the office. We didn’t recognize the little fellow at first. He had taken off thirty pounds, a lot of weight for .a former bantamweight. . . .. “Just wanted to say goodby. I'm shoving off with the army this afternoon.” Donovan, son -of the, fabulous Mike (who boxed with Teddy Roosevelt and once gave him a shiner), was a corking middleweight before he became a referee, the country’s best referee in our ‘book. Handled Louis Bouts Off hand, we'd say he handled more important fights than any of the moderns, handled most of the

+ fights in which Louis participated,
as challenger or champion. If his ljob wasn’t always perfect it was satisfactory enough. | There wasn’t anything about the racket Donovan didn’t know and unlike so many ex-battlers he had a bean on his shoulders; besides which he was quick, dominant and emphatic in emergencies. dom saw him flustered, though there were times we didn’t see eye to eye with him in his scoring. The. Louis-Farr fight, for 'one. Donovan gave prgctically every round to Louis. Most of us a& the
ringside saw it as a reasonably|ss,
close fight. Donovan’s - explanation: “I don't score points for fighters who stab and clutch. That’s|™ all Farr did.” Though we didn’t realize it at the moment, the most brilliant piece of refereeing Donovan ever did was in the second Louis-Schmel- | ing¥Aght. Since this one was over |in less than three minutes what, you may ask, was there for a referee to do except count up to 10? Schmeling Wilted Let’s reset the stage.

DELAWARE
HE WARNED U. S. Kept Nation Advised on All
Jap Moves, Ex-Envoy
Tells Bankers.
NEW YORK, Oct. 20 (U. P.)— Joseph C. Grew, former United States ambassador to Japan, told the ‘Investment Bankers association last night that he had warned the government of Japanese intentions long before Pearl Harbor. “TI had known of Japan’s preparations for war, and I kept our government currently advised of the information which came to the knowledge of my embassy on that subject,” he said. He said that the Japanese military clique, which seized control of |1284 the naiion’s finances and made of them a “robber economy,” was responsible for the war.
U. S. Made Little Demand
“We were prepared to: offer the Japanese everything for which her leaders professed to be fighting,” he said. “All that we asked was that Japan abandon her militarist aggressions, . cease being a bad neighbor in East Asia, and enjoy with us the prosperity that we and they could have found in common. “We did not, do not and never shall assent to Japan’s assuming the hegomony of the Far East as a robber and aggressor.”
Predicts Forced Savings Undersecretary of the Treasury Daniel W. Bell, speaking at the
revenue bill was “plainly inadequate” to meet the government's anticipated expenditure of $84,000,000,000 during the fiscal year. He said some form of compulsory savings may soon have to be instituted, that rationing of consumer goods and services will have to be extended and that the nation’s commercial banks will have to finance an “unprecedented” share of the federal deficit.
FBI SPOILS YOUTH'S EXTORTION SCHEME
CHICAGO, Oct. 20 (U. P.).—Victor Mule’s carefully planned extor-
”| tion scheme has yielded him noth-
ing except respect for the FBI. Victor is a 16-year-old high school junior. He worked last summer at the Wyler company plant, which makes soup for the army, and conceived a plan to cripple the bouillon wrapping department. He borrowed a key from a fellow employee, had a copy made and returned it. He quit his job when school reopened and returned to the plant Oct. 9 to remove a vital part of the wrapping machine. Company officials said the part was made in Switzerland and was “virtually irreplaceable.” Victor wrote two letters to §. S. Wyler, company president, demanding $1000 for its return. He went himself to collect the money, said he had been sent by a “stranger” and accepted a dummy package of money. FBI men followed him and
meet the stranger.
