In the main go, that sleep Chicago jol\ Barney Ross, will defend his junior welterweight title against Franklie Klick, an ornery, busy j cuss from Frisctfs virile, if not fashionable, sloth of the slot neigh- borhood. ' Just before Ross goes on, Max Baer, the heavyweight champion | of the world and the man who could have convinced even William : J. Bryan that Darrow and Scopes had the right idea, .will go four ; rounds with Jimmy Maloney of Boston. Perhaps "will try to go four rounds" would Jv better, for Baer, poor as is his aim, is liable to hit James before the four rounds end. In that case, it won't go four rounds. James won't like this if he ; chances to read it, for, when he was asked to meet Baer, he immed- i iately requested a 1() days leave of absence from the Miami Beach | police force (he is a traffic cop at a busy street corner) and went into strict training. "% Friends, 1 am told, did tlTeir best to dissuade James, but he in- j sisted-on taking the bout. Some say his work as a traffic officer has ; gone to his head; tb.at, having stopped automobiles, he believes he can stop Baer. Others insist that James is working under a mis- J .apprehension—that he fully believes he will be allowed to carry his j heavy iron "stop-go"' sign into the ring, as well as his night-stick, handcuffs, badge and" whistle. Of course, he won't be allowed suth equipment. He will have to go in there clad only in a pair of ill-fitting purple drawers, and as plain James Maloney of Boston, ex-fish peddler, ex-fair-to-middling heavyweight. This is meager equipment, indeed, against a right- hand that lands with the. delicacy of a paving stone, and a jaw of a material that is the envy and despair of road-builders. Baer, however, has promised to treat Maloney with the respect due age. Interviewed at his training quarters on the dance floor of Earl Carroll's Palm Island club, where he was surrounded by half a dozen blande, eager young sparring partners, the champion said he he would do his best to make it go four rounds. "I will use my own unique system;'' he said. "I will crack him and catch him. . Of course, sometimes 1 fail to make the catch. But my information on Maloney says Jimmy is a forward-faller, and they are awful hard to miss." Ross and Klick made surprisingly modest forecasts. Outside of admitting he could out-hit and out-box Klick, was faster, stronger and smarter and would probably knock his man out, Ross had noth- ing to say. . „ ' Klick, too, was reticent, confining himself io a brief statement in which he said he would not be at all surprised to win by a knock- U. t" ' -•" — I < Summary Of Evidence In Hauptmann Case FROST BITTEN BUNCH OF HOCKEY PLAYERS FROM HERE BEATEN BY GLENS FALLS 3 TO 0 Bruno Richard Hauptmann it* given ccairhhig in a ropltca of the wit- ness chair by Hovd Fisher, native Flemington member of the de- fense, to enable him to make the beat possible impression on the jur composed of Fisher's fellow Hunterdon countlans.

(Central Press) STATE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE WILL BE SOUGHT BY STRONG ALBANY, Jan. 25—Creation of a department of justice in New York state, to tie all police agencies to- gether in the war on crime, will be proposed to the legislature within the new few days. Assemblyman Pritchard H. Strong FLEMINGTON, N. J., Jan. 25 0!> -The prosecution rested its case against Bruno Richard Hauptmann yesterday after piling up three weeks 1 of testimony designed to Show that '• he kidnaped and killed the Lindbergh baby. This is what the witnesses said: 1. Col. Charles A.' Lindbergh said the voice he heart! in St. Raymond's Cemetery Was the voice of Haupt- mann. 1 Dr. John F- Condon identified Hauptmann as the man with whom he conducted preliminary ransom negotiations and as the man tp whom he paid $50,0<i0. 3. Eight handwriting experts swore that Hauptmann wrote all the ran- dom notes, including the one that was left on the window sill of the Lind- bergh nursery. 4. Betty Gow, nursemaid for the Lindberghs, who crossed the Atlan- tic to testify, identified the- sleeping ! . ' suit that was returned t,o Dr. Condon I as the one the baby wore on the , / \right of the kidnaping. * 5- Joseph Perrone, New York! j taxicab driver, testified that Haupt- j I mann was the man who gavejjim $1' \ to deliver a note to Dr. Coljilon dur- ' ing the time of the ransonrnegotia-1 tions. . _#• 6. Amandus H.ochmuth identified ; Hauptmann as the man |e saw on j the road to the Lindbergh estate, in i a green sedan with a ladder in the I back seat, at noon on the day of the kidnaping. %. Charles Rossiter identified Hauptmann as a man he saw on the rOad, near the Princeton Airport the Saturday before the kidnaping. 8. Millard Whited, a resident of j the Sourland mountains, identified More Links the lightweight, instead of the junior welterweight title back to own, California. Unfortunately, 1 missed Buddy Baer, who will fight six rounds with one Frank Davenport of Chicago. It was around lunch time when 1 called and Buddy, Max said, "was out feeding the chickens." 1 imagine, though, I'll see enough of Buddy to last me a long time Monday night.

He was taken before Justice of the [ Peace Robert Scott and fined $15. . Neither machine, according to Judge ; Scott, was jn use, but had been stor- ed in a back room at the inn.
