HOT WELTER SCRAP r ON KFLW TONIGHT Classy, crafty Billy Graham ' tussle tonight with Tippy Larkin (above), the pride of Garfield, N.

Graham, who calls New York his ; home town, is a superlative combina- I tion of boxer and puncher. His record ! is impressive. Only twice in 70 fights has he toine out on the wrong end of the decision. A win over Tippy would lift him high in 147-lb. ranks. Larkin, too, is a masterful boxer and fights like blue blazes. Known as the Garfield Gunner, he possesses a sharp left and a molar-loosening right. When he has his man set up, : he can he a rattlesnake finisher.

Dusette, Gray Mask Fight To Draw In Main Event At Armory Wrestling Matches Wild confusion and fast actum reigned as kings of last' night's split main event at the armory wrestling matches, with every thing from arguments among the grapplers to squabbles between referees, time keepers and the whistling audience. Dusette. Georges that is. and the Grey Mask won the toss for the final go. and put up a scrap that had the fans wild-eyed ana hoarse before it was well start ed. The usual tactics of hair pull ing, slugging and crawling for the ropes to avoid any dangerous hold won for the mask onlv a draw last night against the Canadian powerhouse, a fall go ing to the Mask in the third round with a half crab, and Du sette coming back in the fifth to even it ud with his favorite hold, a full nelson.

Harvester announces '20,000,000 price reductions We believe there is nothing more important to this country than to lower tlie prices of the goods that people buy. The American people have iiwisled thnt the government withdraw from its attempts to control prices in peacetime. Thnt places Ilia responsibility where it belongs in the hands of business and industry. Not all busincm enn reduce prices now. Not all can reduce by the same amount. Our company hns felt a duly to act bs promptly as possible. In our cone, the busi ness outlook now mokes it possible to move toward the goal of lower prices. The only way out of the vicious circle of higher and higher prices is to break through. We have taken this ntcp not bocouxe of present competitive conditions nor because of a drop in demand from customers. We have taken it because of our belief that ANY I'HICE IS TOO HIGH IF IT CAN BE REDUCED. Thcso reductions, which will save tho uxors of our products approximately $20,000,000 n year, will become effective before April 1, and will apply to a selected lint of tractor, farm machine, motor truck, and industrial power products. Since we lose money on a few of our products, and barely break even on some others, these reductions will not apply to our entire line. Reductions will bo made indi vidually on products. Somo will be cut more than others. Exact details will be announced as soon as possible. Our ability to maintain this lower levol of prices will depend in part on what happens to the prices and flow of materials that we buy from others.. Because wo beliove prico reduc tion is vital, wo aro willing to assume the risks that are involved. INTERNATIONAL Call Rental Division, Telephone 6222 IIIHM.II SHIS, KUuulk lli, Ol.
