Jim Jeffries Is 71 Today
BURBANK, Cal, April 18 (U. P). —Hulking Jim Jeffries is celebrating his 71st birthday today because he battled for life as determinedly as he did in 1899 to win the world's heavyweight boxing championship from Bob Fitzsimmons. ‘Big Jim suffered a stroke Feb. 31 that paralyzed his left side. Despite his age, he gamely fought back, soon regained his voice and slowly he is making use again of his left leg and left arm. But most of today he sat in his wheel chair, meeting a few friends, and reading the thousands of birthday greetings that poured in ud mail and telegraph.

weren't worth a buffalo nickel a week ago, were American Hockey league playoff champions today because they refused to give up. The Bisons gained the cup for the third time in four years last night with a 5-to-2 victory over the Cleveland Barons before 9448 fans at Memorial auditorium. That triumph climaxed an uphill drive started after the fourth

capture the cup. The Bisons took|
an early 3-to-1 lead in the first period and the Barons never caught up. Key man in the victory was for. ward Vie Lynn, who scored two goals, one in the first and one in the final period. Although the game was closely contested and because of the high stakes, bitterly fought, it was significant that not a penalty was called.
