FARRELL NEA Service Sports Writer One of the two leading big boys of Tex RIckard's herd of heavy weights will be put on the block in the Garden tonight when Jack Sharkey, one of the eliminated of last year's eliminations, and Tom Heeney, a new member of, the challenger pack, meet In the first of a new series to find another op ponent for Gene Tunney. Although there have been whis pers that the elimination tourna ment will be for entertainment and profit anly and that Jack Demp sey will be RIckard's choice for a third bout with the champion, Rlckard insists today that the winner of the contest would be within a few steps of the ring for 182S's big shot Sharkey, because of his experi ence and the record he has made against bigger men, probably will be a favorite in the betting al though Heeney, a big, strong, cour ageous fellow, will have some backing. , Sharkey has a reputation for be ing weak in the stomach, but Hee ney is not a natural body puncher and be is much slower than some of the big men that Sharkey has beaten and he can't hit as hard as Dempsey. . . ,f . , It was said after Sharkey had been dropped, to the floor by . Dempsey last year that he lacked courage, but It is not a fair in dictment. Sharkey had to have courage when he fought Harry Wills when every other heavy weight was dodging the big negro. He also fought and whipped George Godfrey, who is being bally- zatton. The "Dad's Day" is to be come an annual affair, with ono of the days in the fall term set aside for this, hereafter, it Is an nounced. ; - - -- Fathers In Eugene nnd else where who have been Informed of the event have been enthusiastic in their prnlse of the Idea. The visit will not only bo enjoyable, but will give them a chance to see University conditions first hand, they declare.

BILL BURR HIGH POINT PLAYER ON , MID WESTERN TRIP OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, CorvnlliB, Jan. 13. Captain BUI Burr of the Oregon Aggies flashed across the - mid western basketball horizon and scored 97 points while playing in ten games of the 12-game sched ule and was the big offensive threat on the Orange quintet. He was high-point man for the Orangemen in eight of the ten contests and tied for leading hon ors in one of the others. The Orangemen scored a total of 290 points for an average of 24.1 a game. The opponents of the Orange tallied 3f4 counters for a game average of 29.6. Although the Orangemen won hut three of the 12 contests played, this Is no criterion of relative strengths. Two many contests in succession, coupled with long, steady train riding, told on the Orangemen. In practically every contest . the Orange five led at half time. At that three of the losses were by If This Intensive Production of Autos Gets Any Worse j J sr r VEKfc OOINGTO HAVE A STRtNUO05 TIME KEEPING 1 HP . .SUPPLY OP PEDESTRIANS UP TO MEET THE INCREASED DEMANDS 7 !

SOVIET EXHIBIT HEAP OF DEBRIS '' MUSSELS, Jnu.'lS. Whut was once a Soviet exhibition today was a hoap of debris after an orgy of destruction staged by nationalist youths. The eruption of more than CO turbulent youths found the guests gathered for tho opening of the ex hibit organized by the Belglo Ilusslnn league of International re lations. The invaders were armed with cudgels. The leader of tho band blew a whistle. At this slgnnl the party divided, some to prevent the ex hibition staff from interfering or calling aid while tho others sot to work to airman everything. The bust of Lenin was dashed to the floor and splintered and the bustB of othor prominent com munists wero similarly fronted. Contents of tho shelves woroj swept to tho floor.

Ho was able to reach Tunney only once. Sharkoy, however, lias had a long rest and there are reasons . to believe that the injured hand which caused hint to ask for a postponement of the fight last year was inspired by the box office. In considering Sharkey's chances it can be remembered that he, like Dempsey, always has done his moBt effective righting against bigger and heavier men and he Is unusually fast and effective against a fnBt big man, as he showed in his tight against Jim Moloney. ( Heeney has done well In his few appearances in this country. He was made the victim of a raw de cision fighting Paulino, but his form against a clown fighter llko tho Spuniiird cannot be taken as heavy evidence. Heeney is a rugged, ble fellow with plenty of courage aud fight ing equipment above the ordinary run of the challengers. Although tho Dempsey fight may have hurt Sharkey physically, It should have been a moral lesson to him. When he was training for Dempsoy he scorned even the suggestions of William Muldoon, and, in the ring, he rldlculod tho suggestions of his manager nnd seconds. .).; Confidence Is a valuable asset, but tho inordinate vanity of Shar- Roy oerore and in the fight with Dompsey cost him perhaps a halt million dollars nnd a chance at tho tltlo.
