We have attended many box fights where the crowd wanted a murder, but never until last night, one where it was SUPPLIED ! Moreover we came very near being an eye witness, due to a certain combination of circumstances. Because of these circumstances we didn't leave the Holly wood Legion stadium with the crowd, and wandering about near the fighters' quarters ran into a couple of policemen, who were hustling a husky middle aged man to the nearest exit, followed by a milling crowd, in which young roughs in various stages of undress predominated. Following along we came out in an alley where an ambulance with its siren blowing was just leaving, escorted by several motor cops. The middle-aged man was and with more sirens blowing, We finally learned the husky middle-aged man was H. C. Hansford, father of the young lightweight we had just seen gain a doubtful decision over weight champion. He had slashed a Jim O'Brien who called the decision "robbery" and when Papa H. objected, O'Brien proceeded to do a little uppercutting on his own account. Ac cording to the latest report O'Brien is dying and the father is held for murder. A fitting end mayhem 1 We had often heard of these Hollywood, and listened at times to the ringsido patter over the radio but lust night was our first appearance, "in person." If last night was typical, a Hollywood Legion membership must be WORTH something. There were no fighters of note on the program, but every event was a slash-bang affair and the place was packed to the cupola. There were no delays, one match over the other immediately started, and the Legion band played with great gusto and disregard of the ear drums, between whiles. As far as we can learn every Friday night is a "sell out". Now they have added a evening's program probably the Legion will have to build an annex or move their shows to the Hollywood Bowl. We think we know the answer. In the first place the Legion puts on a' real show husky willing boys evenly matched, who are in there doing their stuff all the time. In the second place, attending these Friday "cards" has come to be "the thing" in movicland. There were more movie notables at the ringside last night, than were ever seen at the Brown Derby. Mae Wrest occupied her accustomed seat, near her were Nancy Carroll, Mr. and Mrs. Bing Crosby, Robert Young, Jim Jeffries, Jimmy Durante, and mascara daubed, platinum haired "extras until the cows came home. Incidentally Miss Mae West is about half as large in real life as she is on the screen not a midget exactly, but miles from being another Lillian Russell. We wonder how long it will be bofore there will be a film thriller called "Murder at the Ringside" perhaps it will follow Mae West's new uplift drama known as "There Is No Sin." Have just learned from the Mail Tribune this air mail order by P. M. General Farley, puts Medford off the air map entirely! Preposterous, shocking, and also inconceivable. If private com panies sorved Southern Oregon, why can't the army do the same! We have just filed a wire to Senator McNary backing up the Chamber of Commerce protest with all the expletives in our dictionary. If anyone can rectify such a colossal blunder the senior senator from Oregon can. So 400,000 CWA workers are to be dropped from the rolls the coming week. More are to be dropped later. Well it had to come sometime, perhaps it may as well come now. Not since the depression started will Uncle Sam undergo a more severe test, than the elimination of DIRECT federal relief entails. Can private industry take up the slack! That's the tremendous question. If it can't then of course there will be trouble seri ous trouble. President Roosevelt apparently believes it can. We certainly hope, MOST FERVENTLY HOPE that he is right I Too bad Mrs. Davo Wood or Anna 5Iae Kuson couldn't have come down to play in the finals in the women's invitation tournament at the L. A. oountry club Friday, against the new champion, Miss "Buff" Abbott. They would at least have given the former U. of C. coed a belter run for her money than did Miss Margaret Bushard. We have no desire to rub it in, for Miss B. did her beBt and we never felt sorrier for anyone in our life, BUT the fact remains the gallery did want to see a contest, and there WAS none. Miss Abbott was terribly off herself, shooting near the nineties all the time, but her opponent simply had a case of stage fright, complicated by the jitters, which brought tears to one's eyes. Never in tournament golf before, and getting into the finals only after the hardest struggle, tho cumulative strain was too much and neither cigarcts, rabbit's foots or confer ences with her caddy helped. On the gully hole, she topped her drive into the sink, looked up her second, and clubbed complete ly out, while her third hit a tree. Whereupon sho picked up as she did on two or three other holes in that 18. Too bad and something we always had expected but never had seen in an important tournament before. We will say this for Miss Bush ard, however, she never s' pped trying, never lost her dignity, and never broke down, but sho would be less than human, if after she got to the club house after being beaten 9 down, she didn't all by her lonesome, enjoy a good cry!

A correspondent delivers this warn- lng: "About thr months ago I read your article In which you inld then la "no seen anlmlle" aa mucous co lltli. About the aama time I flrat noticed conald erable mucous I took your a d t 1 o a and "Ignored It as much a possible, with the result that a few weeks later I found my self In the hospital with a severe cane of ulcerative colitis. Furthermore the treatment was rest. Irrigations, hypodermic in , Jectlons and "frealc diet" (your own words.) What I should like to know now ts this. Are you still of the opinion that there Is "no seen anlmlle" as mucous colitis? If I were writing an article I should say "At the first sign of (we'll omit symptoms) have a protoscoplc examination." . The correspondent's recommenda tion Is a good one, only so few lay men would act upon It. The procto scope Is an Instrument by means of which the rectum Is examined. Four out of five persons who suffer with trouble In this part of the body pre fer to fool along with nostrums, freak dieting and the like. False modesty, or Just plain Ignorance, keeps most victims of rectal or colonic trouble away from competent physicians- physicians who do not attempt to pre scribe for jot advise or treat such cases until they have made a proper exami nation and determined precisely what Is the matter. I cannot assert too emphatically that there Is no such condition as "mucous colitis." Colitis means in flammation of the colon, and there la certainly no Inflammation present In the characteristic complaint which wiseacres and their quacks call "mu cous colitis." This correspondent fell into the error which many others are likely to fall into, from the misunderstanding caused by applying the term "colitis" to a complaint In which there is no such serious condition. The corres pondent confused real colitis with the Imaginary "mucous colitis." Ulceration In the large bowel Is a serious condition. I cannot discuss it here, for the simple reason that it is Impossible do do so without sug- NEW YORK DAY BY DAY BY O.O.McIntyre NEW YORK, Feb 30 Arthur Sam uels Is the blonde young editor of Harpers Bazaar and one of the few chief tans of the editorial sanctum with real musical ability. I think It was Henry Wat terson who said he had never met an editor who could hum the simplest tune. But Samuels Is a pianist of con cert calibre. His repertory ranges from h 1 s own back - room ar- &stLzJ Frankie and Johnny to the miMt difficult Bach. He Is in his 30 's and one of the few able to winnow a story or poem from the coy and reluctant Dot Parker. Samuels kicked off as a reported on The World and went the usual mi gratory rounds. He was the origina tor of the idea that culminated in tht glossy outburst known as The New Yorker. His afternoon teas offer a celebrity showing rarely eclipsed in a town of celebrity displays. His wife Is the former cinema and a time star Vivian Martin, a Dresden china lady of exquisite beauty. Sam uels was born In Hartford, Ct., a city from which he continues to register In the world capitals In appearance, he suggests a shrunken Isaac Marcos-1 son.

S)t is Helen Hsvca, j verrbodv kuoas. t fa ' Brady, M.D. gestlng to healthy readers morbid symptoms. But 1 agree with the cor respondent that the wise course for any one who develops any symptoms at all Is to go Immediately to a com petent physician and remember, please, that a competent physician never prescribes for or advises or treats one with rectal disorder similar complaint until he has made a proper examination and determined definitely what he Is treating. In denying that such a condition as "mucous colitis" occurs I ara not advancing merely my own notion, am giving you the consensus of medl cal opinion. Try and controvert It if any physician of standing has the courage to dispute this teaching. The correspondent seems deter mined to show me up In the worst light. Among the remedial measures that were used in treatment of the ulcerative colitis was "freak diet. Freak diets, to my mind, are the kind wiseacres monkey with on their own funny notion or on the suges tlon of some mall-order humbug healer. I have never Implied that dietary regulations prescribed by one's own physician are in any way absurd, QUESTION'S AXn ANSWERS. Borax Cleans 'Em Out. I wrote for your Instructions for eradicating roaches, which you sent promptly, but such a horde of them invaded my house that In desperation I sprinkled borax In crevices and the corners of cupboards or wherever I thought the roaches would run. Next morning I was delighted to find many roaches dead. I used the borax for week or two and have not seen a roach since. Mrs. A. 8. K. Answer I hope other readers will report their experience with borax. If it Is efficacious It Is much better than the chemical I recommended for the purpose, which is far less safe than borax to have In the house. Finger Tips Cracked. I am a woman 60 years old and for the past five years have been much troubled by cracking of the finger tips, and the skin of my hands being very dry . . . Mrs. H. A.

Comment on the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS U AUSTRIA In Civil War." "All - France Feels Grip of 8trlkers." "Jap, Soviet War Brewing." So read the foreign news headlines on the front page. They are not pleasant reading. LETS be thankful That these head lines concern the FOREIGN news not our own home news. Here In the United States, If we are wise, we will turn our thoughts away from war and violence and toward peace and work and recovery of our normal standard of living. IF EUROPE insists on war and vio lence, let Europe HAVE war and violence. For our part, let's have peace and happiness and prosperity for our people. We can have these things if we will just be sensible enough to stay out of war. pHE ambition of NRA, so far as Jts M, "cut hours" drive is concerned we read, Is believed to be an ulti mate 36-hour, rather than a 32-hour week.

It Is under - consumption. brought about by Imperfect distribu tion.

FORMATION of an 11 million dollar corporation to deal "with Russia is announced by Jesse H. Jones, chair. man of the reconstruction finance corporation. Is it proposed to LEND Russia the money with which to buy what we have to sell? If It is, we shall be dis appointed In the long run with re sults. We had a lot of experience with that kind of business right after the war, and all of it was unpleasant. When you have to lend the other fellow the money with which to buy what you have to sell, you are doing business on an unsound basis. M WHEN you come right down to it, a lot of our trouble Is due to foreign trade, and the Jams it gets Us into, one way and another. Foreign trade, the statisticians tell us, amounts to only about 10 per cent of our total trade, even in the big years. So, you see. It Isn't really as Im portant as It seems. IF WE could just learn to distribute equally and fairly what we pro duce, so that everybody could trade what he has for what the other fellow has on a fair and even basis, we could consume our own production right here at home and get along WITHOUT foreign trade. It may be that some day we shall learn how to do that When we do. we shall be fortunate. E LONDON (UP) The death rate from suicide in England and" Wales during 1P33 reached a new high rec ord.
