CHICAGO, Dec. 28.—Earl Mastro,
Chicago’s contender for the feath-
erweight championship of tho world,
today ht\1i a technical knockout
victory over Bud Taylor, Tetre Haute
Terror. Taylor, victim of one of
the most peculiar accidents in ring
history, nursed a sprained back.
The incident, which thew 17,211
spectators into hysterical excite-
ment, terminated the second meet-
ing of the pafr in the ninth round
of their 10-rounder last night.
Outpointed for eight rounds, but
still waiting for a chance to end
the fight with a knockout, Taylor'
almost accomplished his purpose in
the ninth round when he floored'
the Chicago Italian. When Mastro |
regained his feet after a count of
three, Taylor tore in for the finish
and fell through the ropes wrench-
ing bls back.
He carried Mastro with him, and
it looked like a double knockout,
until the Chicago sharpshooter
managed to regain his feet at the
I count of five. Taylor, apparently
j paralyzed, could not rise, and Ref-
, eree Collins awarded the verdict to
1 Mastro------w—- ---------------- one peUcgmfin. slightly wounded.

DALLAS. Dec. 28— Despite a
temporary depression in wholesale
trade, the recent stock market drop
w.ll lead next year to "sound, legi-
timate buisness” for the eleventh
federal reserve district, in the opin-
ion of B. L. Norsworthy, president
of the Wholesale Merchants associa-
tion here.
The eleventh district includes all
ot Texas and portions of New Mex-
ico, Arizona, Oklahoma and Louisi-
ana.
Wholesale business in the Dallas
trpde territory for 1928 was about
$887,00,000 Merchants expect a five
per Cent increase for 1929.
’’Wholesalers, generally, regard
the recent stock market drop as a
wholesome elimination of the spec-
ulative, inflatlve element In trad-
ing,” Norsworthy said. "Temporar-
ily. there has been a hurtful rcact.on
—a psychological depression in the
minds of ultimate consumers. In
luxury lines, particularly, buying has
slowed up, but the rush of holiday
business and the general soundness
of marketing conditions should off-
set that halting factor.
“Clothlnff for men, women and
ch ldren this year saw an augment-
ed demand for popular-priced mer-
chandise, with some wholesalers re-
porting a resultant decrease in calls
for costly garments.
“The eleventh district Is primar-
ily agricultural and this year’s crop
conditions have been spotted—good
Ln seme sections and disappointing-
ly p«x>r In others. This has encour-
aged the merchants's Increasing of
the habit of small-quantity buying.
“Agricultural, business and finan-
cial conditions are sound.”
Coach Dan McAlister’* Bronco
eagers have laid aside holiday pleas-
ures and now are seriously engaged
fn making preparations for one of
the hardest basket ball schedules
ever mapped out for a Denton High
School club.
While the dates for some of tho
games may be changed, McAlister
has matched 15 contest* for his
charges who are favored to go far
in the race for the state title this
season.
Next Thursday evening the Brones

NEW YORK, Dec. 28 —Search for
an ableb'jdied citizen capable of giv-
ing battle to Jack Sharkey at Mi-
ami seems to have ended in Gerald
Ambros Griffiths,
Sioux Ctty. Iowa.
While Joe Humphries waved one
glove aloft in token of decisive vic-
tory over Johnny Rlsko, the first
clear note ol the ballyhoo rang out
last night frdm, the ringside of
Madison Square Garden.
“Ha looks great.’’ beamed the
matchmaker, Tom McArdle, who
has been losing weight searching
for the man to fight Sharkey in the
Battle of the Palms Feb. 27. “I
think Tuffy wJl get that shot,”
The rough youngster belted John
Rlsko for ten rounds to win a rug-
|?ed, but easy decision. Gerald
Ambrose went out to slug with the
rubber man from Cleveland and
stayed there slugging until he had
won nine of the ten rounds beyond
question, while losing one. There
were no knockdowns for the $42.-
466 39 worth of customers, and the
' rubber man was only slightly cut
about the face at the cdose. but was
staggered Ln six of the rounds by
Griffith's short rights to the chin
and heavy body attack. •
The chief xasnaliy of the ^evening
WM> refcre« Jaok Denning, who lost
a lodth in tee sixth r^nd when
Rlsko accidentally butted him.
With Victorio Campolo still in the
Argentine, Phil Scott resting in
London and Max Schmelin; not due
from Germany until Spring, there
seems little hope of furnishing Jack
Sharkey with foreign opposition at
the southern playground In Febru-
ary. The only riyal for Griffiths may
spring from the Garden battle next
month between OJto Von Porait,
Norwegian belter and Paulino Uzcu-
dun.
All signs indicate Griffiths will
draw the assignment.

The Injured policeman was detec-

It was Doherty, concealed in

shoot ini. The extortionist* had en-
tered Powers’ office, Quan in the
lead, stumping along with the aid of
a cane. He had not recovered from
a bullet wound in the leg suffered
several weeks ago. Powers stood be-
hind a grated opening.
’’Well, have you got the
grand?" Quan snarled
IHiwers played for time, but Quan
wanted action.
"If you haven't the money, get
ready for a ride," Quan said
“We’ve taken many another
man ”
Behind Quan stood Wilson and
Ryan, the one carrying a sawed-
off shotgun, the other an automatic
pistol.
At this moment Detective Doher-

wounded Doherty

fire through the grated window
Wilson, wounded, threw down his
weapon, which was empty, and
cried out:
"Give a guy a break."
His companions, however, kept on
firing, sealing the death warrant
of all three.
So well was the police trap set
♦ here was no means of escape. The
racketeers were cornered at cfne

Denton placed two men on the
Record-Chronicle All-State team as
also did Port Arthur. Breckenridge
placed three men. Forest Avenue
High of Dallas. Amarillo. Sherman
and Marshall, one each.
In naming the first team the Rec-
ord-Chronicle placed Knight of Port
Arthur at one end. He was the
outstanding wingman in the State
and richly deserves tbe honor of _________________

running backs in tbe State. Grand- 1
staff was the speedster ot the
Brones all season. In every game
he broke away for long Rins and
on any team he would more than
hold up ^hto part of the burden.
Graham of Breckenridge we plac-
ed at full back He did hto stuff
all season and he was the only
Buckaroo who could gain with any

Cox of Breckenridge and Nicklaus
of Amarillo, the latter shifted from

on tackles. Both were outstanding
men on their teams, according to
press reports, and the writer has
been told by those who have watch-
ed the men play, they would do
credit to any college team.
Pierce of Sherman—a team that
did not get to first base during
the campaign vile placed at one
guard position while Lagow of Forest
was placed at the other guard. Pierce
was one of the best guards the writ-
er saw all season and had his team

did against Denton there is little
doubt but that Denton would have
had much more trouble in beating
the Bearcats.
Moore of Denton is the center on
the team. He played a wonderful
game for the Brones and all season

defense. He to a little small In com-
