France and Spain today signed an agreement to con duct a land blockade of the .Moroc can rebel zone. The agreement. which supplements the sea block ade accord signed recently, was effected by the delegates of the Franco Spanish conference on Morocco at a session today. Louis Malvy, head of the French delegation, announced a third ac cord, providing for French and Spanish political cooperation in Morocco would be signed tomor row. j,. Genera Gomez Jordan of Spain who is president of the conference. declared that "the accord signed today provides for the blockading of the land borders to prevent traf- ic in arms, amunition, foodstuffs and other commodities needed by the rebels, and to suppress suspi cious maneuvers." P.Y XORMAX E. BROWN For many' weeks to come' Gene Tunney will draw the bulk of at tention in the heavyweight circles. He deserves such attention. His victory over the much talked of veteran. Tommy Gibbons, gives him some claim to fame. Bnt let's not form any wrong impressions concerning the young man as much in justice to him self as for any other reason.. Tunney stands out as one of the best young heavyweights in the game. Because of his recent k. o. victory he holds the edge, in draw ing power at least, over Jimmy Slattery, Paul Berlenhach, Young Stribling and Jack Delaney. But be cannot now be called a great heavy. There is no reason for ranking him above Firpo the man who knocked Jack Dempsey out of the ring. He has not met Firpo. He fought a worn out vet when he met Carpentier. He has licked no one of real importance. Giving him the credit due him in his fight with Gibbons the fact that the St. Paul man was but an aged shell cannot be overlooked. Tunney bas already been likenr ed to-Gentleman Jim Corbett in boxing skill; Those who seek, to pay Gene this compliment must have forgotten how good Corbett was. The' main thing in Tunney's favor is his youth and the present situation in the heavyweight dlv ison.' The next logical opponent for the young Tnnhey will be the winner of the Harry Wills-Charlie Weinert battle. Both of these men .are ring grandpas. Uy the time Tunney disposes of one of them and steps into tne I ring with the champion the latter will be an old man in ring par lance and out of the habit of fight ing. In the meantime, however. Tun ney may find trouble for himself 'f he takes on one of the afore mentioned younger men. A draw verdict or a defeat even on points t the hands of Slattery. for in- tanVe. would lower Tunney's tock. The kind thing to do Tunney 's to give him plenty of encourage ment and let him alone. Let's -ot build him into a false idol and then watch him po on-the rocks of to"fhlight parades and ' bally booing. '.' history. Peter Maher, great old time battler, was the greatest of left-handers. i When Babe Ruth socked out his first home run of the season the other day at least four bludgeon wieldera in the big show probably began i wonder how long they would be battling for the four- base honors. These men, while they are slug ging out circuit clouts at. a good pace for"the average slugger, , are not traveling the gait the Babe is accustomed to travel when he is right. Should Babe swing Into his home run stride at this date be could overtake them quite handily at the rate they are going. For when Babe . is right fifteen homers by the second week In June isn't a very high average. The four men who are striving for home run honors while Babe comes back Into his own are Gab by Hartnett of the Cubs and Rogers Hornsby. Cardinal man ager, in the National league, and Ken Williams of the j Browns and Bob Meusel of the Yanks in the American circuit. Hartnett led the park for many weeks, due partly to a hitting rampage that netted him five homers in a few days newcomer In " the Meusel never has been a home rua hitter extraordinary. His work this year with the bat is. pheno menal. Hornsby is not a circuit hitter although one of the greatest base hit collector's the game has ever known; Ken Williams has been battling for home run honors for several, years. He picked up the knack of hitting homers after the germ had lain ' dormant . in his system for years.; , If Ruth fails to get his full strength back in time to swing Into his usual, batting style these four men may battle it out for honors. Babe himself, however, allows a how it will take a better record than they are setting to halt him, despite histardy begin- discipline been maintained In re cent seasons the Cubs, with the material employed, might have won a pennant or two. The other day the question of policy came up again and Lasker finally, stated in a friendly spirit rthat as long as the (wo ideas con flicted it was only fair that one man step out. He thereupon of fered to buy Wrigley's interests at $200 a share or sell his at $150. Wrigley agreed to buy. Lasker. however, still retains enough stock to give him a place in the directorate. He, is the ranks. Bob For those fight , promoters and managers who think and we fear that we automatically limit this Item to the attention of a very few men there should be a warning In the financial outcome of the recent. Tunney-Gibbons battle in New York. The battle, was a gigantic fizzle as far as the. box office was con cerned. The promoters lost be tween $60,000 and $70,000. This despite the fact that- Tunney is reigning favorite in New York and the rest of the east; that Gibbons had the rep of having stayed 15 rounds with Dempsey, and that the show was staged for sweet , charity. Gibbons drew $100,000 for his end and Tunney a total of $.0,- 000 for his end. Three boners were nulled in staging the , fight. The promoters allowed the fail Ing old vejeran Gibbons and his astute manager to hold them up The same promoters figured they could kid the public into pay- ing high prices for seats. They Ignored the fans who like fighting but can't pay a day's sal ary to see a bout. The result- has been chronicled. Those who didn't have the price stayed away. ; Those who had It figured the fight wasn't worth the money ditto. ., ' And. those who went weren't any too well satisfied with what they got for their money. Now the warning Is that these holdups can't be pulled too often. The sooner promoters and man agers get together and decide to play fair with the public the bet ter off the fight game will be. And every holdnp is souring a certain number of ticket buyers on- the game. Sensational don'ts for swim- swimmers are appearing. If you do not remember the others, bear in mind that the Injunction to use common sense win -or itself go far as a safeguard.

The most, in teresting thing about him is that he is a southpaw fighter, the only one in the ring game today tad one of the few in heavyweight According to reports; from Chi cago there is an Interesting side light on the recent deal whereby Albert D. Lasker, former chair man of the United States shipping board, sold all but a few shares of his stock in the Chicago Na tional League club to William Wrigley, Jr. The deal gives young Wrigley control of 75 per cent of the stock. It seems, according to the story, that Wrigley and Lasker held dif ferent views regarding the need for strict discipline in the handl ing of the Cubs or any big league club." Lasker, it is said, believed in the old adage of sparing the rod and spoiling the child. Wrigley believed in the honor system. Lasker felt that, had more rigid ESCAPED BOY DROWNS i -,.
