Jan. fl (U.R) We were standing In the back-court at Stlllman's gymnasium, talking to Lieut. Benny Leonard of the U. S. maritime service, when we noticed big guy in a gray suit drift In through the entrance. Ha carried large, flat pasteboard box under his arm. We knew we had seen the big fellow someplace before. Then recognition dawned. We asked Benny: "Isn't that the King?" "Yes. that's the King, all right: that's the old Kingfish himself," Benny replied. Kingfish Levinsky came over to us, with a strange, shuffling walk, and shook hands. He was so fat he seemed bloated. He looked as If he were packing about 240 pounds. We asked, How's things?" 'Things Is al right," he mumbled, with a rath er vacant smile. He talked like a man with wooden lips and as though his tongue were too large for his mouth. What was the Kingfish doing these days? the chap who fought for 11 years In the ring. "Sellln' . neckties see ." Proudly he opened the bo and displayed his wares. "King Le vinsky specials," he said, point ing at the little tag on one of the cravats. As the big, battle-scarred fel low wandered away through the tnrong with his box, Lieut. Leon ard said: "That's a helluva note. Isn't It? There's a man who made a fortune with his fists probably more than $400,000. And now he's selling neckties. Why Is It that fighters can't keep money?" "You should know, Benny," we told the former lightweight champion In the blue greatcoat with the gold on the shoulders. "You blew plenty." "I didn't blow my money," Benny denied. "I lost it In Invest ments. But It adds up to the same. It's lucky for me I did pretty well on my comeback."

MEDFORD. II HENRY HARD TIME Los Angeles, Jan. 6 U.R Hustlin little Henry Armstrong is going to lost his next deci sion to the doctors when they remove his' tonsils some time this week, but the fight won't be any tougher than the one he had last night with gaunt Jimmy McDaniels. Henry won a 10-round deci sion over his taller and heavier foe, but his best punches on Mc Daniels' lean chin couldn't put his former protege on the canvas. The decision was Hen's 14th victory out of 13 contests in his current comeback toward the big time In which he once held three world championships. Meanwhile, Manager George Moore said the tonsllectomy comes first, probably late this week, and then Henry will see about fulfilling his two dates in the east one with Al Tribu ani in Philadelphia on Feb. 1, and a New York bout on Feb. 19 with Beau Jack. 'Those new dates were an nounced without my consent," Moore said. "We'll wait and see how Henry bounces out from under the doc tor's knife. We may fight those two eastern fights on the sched ule dates and we may not."

The county will make appli cation for road oil, but the chance of getting it it (light, It was further stated. "Most of the road work this year will be patching, and fixing bridges, the county judge said. "We have no planned program The rains have caused some dam age, but it is not aa bad aa re ported.

The campaign will be beaded by Mrs. 'Kinney Holmes with officials of the Chamber of Commerce, the Out post and a large committee of women working with her. Mrs. Holmes explained today that tha VRV was organized after reports from Camp White recreation and other officials showed that there is real need for women of this vicinity to at tend parties and programs at the camp service clubs. So far only about 500 women have re sponded to the calls by the va rious recreation groups and It is estimated that an additional thousand women could be used in the work. All Agee Warded "One of the first things which we have to do Is to enlighten the public mind about the nature of the program desired," Mrs. Holmes stated. "Women of all ages, not Just young girls, are needed. They are needed to at tend tha service club gatherings, which are all planned by the personnel at the camp, to play cards, games, talk with the boys and generally provide the civil ian companionship which the servicemen need and enjoy." Frank Hull, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, also stressed the fact that "grand mothers are needed Jut; as much as young women." He pointed out that It was a mistake for anyone to associate romantic Ideas with the program and urged the husbands and fathers of Medford to realize that It was truly a patriotic duty for Med ford women to attend the camp parties and assured them not on objectionable feature could be pointed out. To Attend In Group Mrs. Holmes Is organizing a group of approximately 80 women who will sign up women through business contacts, clubs.
