SUNDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1925 PAGE THREE Thorpe and Corbett Main Drawing-Cards at Legion Program Veteran's Experience Too Big a handleup for Hutchinson Boxer in Bout Fighting Harvey Thorpe of Kansas City, Mo., had a shaded the better of Pat Corbett of Hutchinson in the main round bout of the American Legion boxing card Friday night in the new Armory building. Thorpe won the fifth and ninth rounds by a fair margin while Corbett had a shade the better in the second round. In the other six rounds there was not enough action shown to award them to either boxer. THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN The years of ring experience of Thorpe proved too big a handcrop to the Hutchinson boy and he was unable to penetrate the Missouri's district. In the semi-windup, Eddie "Kid" Fernks, a local boy got off to a good start by knocking Johnny Strugue of Kansas City, Mo., out after 1 minute 10 seconds of milling in the second round. The lantern jawed Stropou led repeatedly with his chin and as a result took about five rans on the same projection and keeled over for the fatal ten. The fight was scheduled around the hands. The men are bantomweights. A four round curtain raiser with a boy named Endicott and an Indian called Alligator ended in a draw. Both boys seemed willing but appeared lost in the strange surroundings. The second bout of the evening, a six rounder brought together two wettweiten from Topaka, Red Kline and Mickey Evans, who staged a brotherly skirt with Kline having a shade the better at the tapping exchange. The rounds in each fight were limited to two minutes. Tom Martin of Topeka referred all the matches. A fair crowd attended.

Jardine's Report Shows Wool Men Beating Back According to the 1925 report of W. M. Jardine, Secretary of Agriculture, a 5 per cent increase in wool production and a million more sheep on farms in 1928 than in 1924 are proof of returnting confidence in the wool-growing industry of the United States. Phone The postwar depression of 1920 and 1921 seriously affected wool growers, but the relatively good prices during the years 1923, 1924 and 1925 have then to recover or complete the restraints the depression caused. Service Fritz Co. Wool values rose remarkably during the fall and winter of 1924, but wool growers, with the exception of the southern season, were benefited little at the time. The advance created a keen demand for the 1925 city, and contracting for the wool at high temperatures made months before shearing. . Wood values declined rapidly in the early part of 1925 and reached their low point in May. Suiting You—That's My Business SCHULZ THE TAILOR 917 MASS.
