CHICAGO. Dec. 29. (AP)--Knock-ing
out King Levlnsky knocked Max
Baer, world's heavyweight champion,
out of ftt least $50,000.
This was estimated tonight when
it was learned that Baer had agreed
to a ten round battle with the free
swinging young-man -about-town in
Chicago next summer, provided they
had emerged from a scheduled four
round exhibition with honors fairly
even. Dramatically flattening the
klngfish In two thrilling rounds.
The champion was risking his title
he could have lost It If he had
been knocked out and Levinsky was
determined to do that very thing
when he leveled terrific right hand
blows on Baer's chin during the first
round.
"Leaping Lena" Levy, sister man
ager of the reformed Maxwell street
fish pedtv'cr. declared today that the
klngfish lost because he became too
careless, but Baer said it was because
be got too fresh.
"I didn't want to knock the guy
out," Baer said, 'I had hoped that
we could go through with a nice
fight. But the sucker tried to knock
my ears off in the first round and
then ti. l to make me look foolish
at the st-.it of the second by stand
ing in the middle of the ring waving
his arms at me yelling, 'come out
and fight, you so and so'."
"I said to myself, "who does this
mug think hs is. he's talking to the
world's champion.' So I let him have
It."
"Remember what I said about
fighting Lasky or Hamas, or Levlnsky
and Lasky in one night? well. It still
goes."
Baer, after remaining In Chicago
to do a little New Year's celebrating,
will resume his exhibition tour In
Detroit January 4, meeting Babe
Hunt, an clonftatod heavyweight from
Ponca City, Okla.
Gloom as thick as pea soup set
tled over the Levlnsky clan tonight.
WITH BONNEVILLE

Opposition to organization of a Col

Senator Stelwer (R., ore ) saia ne
would oppose any link between the
Grand Coulee and Bonneville power
projects.
Stelwer. Informed of plana of rep
resentatives Knute Hill (D.. Wash.)
and Pierce (D., Ore.l to Introduce
a bill providing for such an author
ity, aald he was "unalterably op
posed" to any plan which would
mean that power from the Grand
Coulee and from the Bonneville
would be thrown Into the same lines
at the same price.
"Bonneville will develop the
cheapest now ln tn world," the
senator said, "and if the two pro
jects were thrown together at an
average price. It would mean that
the power from the Grand Coulee
would be sold for lew than cost
plus a legitimate profit, while the
power from Bonneville "would be ao!d
for considerable more than It other
wise would bring If eold alone,"
The senator said he would not
oppose any plan which would create
an authority to administer the
Orand Coulee development or one
to administer the Bonneville, but
believed each section should be per
mitted to profit by it own natural
advantage.

ment yesterday concerning the pro

tribution of the new camps would

Recommendations submitted vo
the regional forest office pertain to

allotted to each forest end district

work, Janouch announced that the

Senator Stelwer (R.. Ore.) said to
day he had been assured the rural
rehabilitation corporation would re
move 160 families from 37.000 acres of
submarKln&l land in Tillamook coun
ty. Oregon.
The cost will be tB5.000.
Under plans described to the sena
tor, 60 of the families who will be
financed In the movement by the
government will be placed In a re
settlement area In the same county
In Township 2 South, Range 9 West,

South. Range 10 West,
Etvch family will be settled on a
new farm of about 1ft acres at aa
approximate cost for land, equipment
and other expense! of 2M0 each
Twenty-two of the fa ml I lea, the sen.
ator said, were described as having
sufficient capital to undertake their
own relocation on more productive
lands.
In view of the fact there 1 little
opportunity for employment, other
than agricultural, In the area, the
senator said the rehabilitation cor

PASADENA, Cal., Dec. 29. (AP)
Alabama and Stanford burned their
football bridges behind them today
with their grid conflict, the twentieth
annual Rose Tournament game, three
days away.
Potentially the most closely match
ed elevens in recent years of the
flower fiesta, the representatives of
the West and South put the final
touches on of.'cne and defense this
afternoon.
Stanford will work twice more and
the Crimson Tide once, but the fact
remained that anything done on the
practice field from now on can hardly
turn the tide of victory one way or
the other.
It la a Job for psychologists now
and the weather man has promised
to maintain a hands-off policy. He
promised clear, cool wather for the
struggle. That will suit both teams.
In spite of early talk setting Coach
Prank Thomas' unbeaten and untied
team up as the favorite. It was con
sidered likely that the standard bear
ers of the West, without defeat but
tied once, would go into the struggle
at even money.
Coach Claude (Tinv Thornhlll put
his team through a snappy signal
drill today, continuing to put more
stress on passes than on running
plays. The southerners, apparently
already at that fine edge, worked less.
but stressed the same point aerial
football.
While the Indians were throwing
the ball around Brook side park pro
miscuously, the fact failed to cloud
the issue. It continued to be a well
determined fact that the game would
resolve Itself into a struggle between
air and land forces.

The New Ford V-8 lor 1935 is a motor
car designed ior comfort as well as
efficiency.
Three years ago, the Ford Motor
Company brought a new standard
of motor performance within reach oi
the average purchaser by introduc
ing the Ford V-8. The outstanding
reliability and economy of its V-8
engine have been proved in the ser
vice of more than a million motorists.
For 1935, the Ford Motor Company
takes another pioneering step and
gives you ease of riding to match that
modem engine performance.
This achievement is Center-Poise
Hiding accomplished by a funda
mental change in car design with
new, correct weight distribution, new
seat position and new springing. The
improvement is especially noticeable
in the back seat. You ride forward,
toward the center ol the car away
from the rear axle and away from
the bumps. Rear-seat passengers
now have the comfort of a "front
seat ride."
CORRECT WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
-SPRINGBASE OF 123 INCHES
Scientific distribution of weight has
been effected by completely rede
signing the chassis. Engine, frame
DISTINCTIVE NEW LINES
AND A NEW KIND OF
RIDING COMFORT
i anu body are all so balanced that
their w tight is about equally dis
tributed on all four wheels. This per
mits the use of longer, more flexible
springs, both front and rear.
The springbase of the New Ford
V-8 is 123 inches, eleven inches
longer than the wheelbase. The front
spring is mounted forward oi the
front axle, instead of over it. The
rear spring is mounted eight inches
behind the rear axle. This long
springbase gives increased comfort
without sacrificing ease of handling.
Spring leaves are tapered to in
sure quiet operation as well as
greater flexibility.
The Ford policy of constant im
provement is reflected also in the
beautiful body lines of the New Ford
V-8 for 1935. They are distinctively,
modem, yet not extreme. The whole
appearance of the car is one of grace
and substantial strength.
NEW BODY ROOM-NEW BRAKES
-NEW CLUTCH EASIER STEERING
The Dew Ford V-8 is longer and
widor, with more leg room, more seat
room and more luggage room. The
front seats are 4 to 5't inches wider
and seat three comfortably. The car
is lower easier to step in and out.
Rear doors in sedans are wider. The
new pillowed seats are unusually
comfortable, with softer back springs
and seat springs. The new interior
finish, upholstery and appointments
are richer and more luxurious than
anything you have ever seen in a
low-price car.
Other important 1935 features are
the newly designed brakes and
clutch, with softer action, requiring
less foot pressure ou the pedals,
easier steering and new lower X-typa
frame. The front doors now open for
ward. There are two new body types
Touring Sedans, with built-in trunk.
All 1935 Ford cars are equipped with
Safety Glass throughout, at no addi
