school or educational course for box- fight judges and referees so that there could be a little more close harmony in their decisions when in an important tangle like the farrlouis affair you find the referee scoring only two rounds for the welshman while other alleged experts gave him as many as six or seven it would certainly seem as if they hadnt all learned out of the same book we dont think that farr won the fight his own managers ad mission that louis had been the better being pretty conclusive but if clem mccarthys vision doesnt need plenty of sharpening it certainly was a whole lot closer than any thirteen to two however mr farr did real well for himself much better than was expected by anybody excepting possibly himself he is in a similar position to the lucky gent who fell down the scver and came up with a gold watch and chain and if he only watches his step does not need to worry about ever having to go back to the mines or the tent shows cither if tommy only packed a wallop in keeping with his moxie and fighting spirit he would be champion of the world right now and they would probably- be trying to prove that he was really an irisher as seems to be the custom when a new champion is crowned although as far as we know nobody has yet tried to claim that joe louis has any harp blood for some reason or other but farr seems to lack that old lethal larrup wth either fist which seems a pity although it is perhaps too much to expect real perfection from any mortal like the ancient one about the two street sweepers who were standing talking about one of their former confreres who had re cently passed on to his reward poor mike sghed one tis certainly a pity he sure used to swing a mean broom he did that replied the other and yet do you know i sometimes thought that mikes technique was just a bit faulty around he lampposts as far as the great election brawl is concerned well the general feeling seems to be to echo the one president roosevelt borrowed from the immortal william a plague on both your houses its too hot and there are too many other things to worry about for most people to bother their heads over an election which nobody can see any real reason for holding and the electors appear to be taking the atttude of strict impartiality shown by the dame who was watching her husband fighting a bead go it husband go it bar but from the
