CHICAGO, Jan. 2.—i UP —Gilbert Biettcher, 27, Milwaukee, renounced truth in his resolutions for the New Year today and said he would maintain his position as the world’s champion liar with as much dignity as

possible.

The Burlington Liars' Club, which has members in 32 countries, awarded him the title and a diamond-stud-ded medal lost night for submitting the best lie of 6 500 entries in its annual liars contest.

Last night the club moved its show to Chicago and Boettcher broadcast Ills whopper over a national radio hookup. He said he thought'of his prize-winner while working in his filling station. ‘T was on a fishing boat out of New Orleans,” he said. ”We came in early one day, and found we had had Mich luck we decided to go out again.

We got our second load of fish and ,

as we started back, we ran out of coal. Thinking quickly, as usual, I told thr> crew to get some dog-fish

in a spare tank.

“When we had a tankful, I had one man tickle the dog-fish until they barked. Then 1 ha 1 a couple of men throw the bark into the holier. So we all got back to shore safe and

round.”
