Sonny Jones Scores

Win

NEW YORK.—WMike (Kid) Frattini of Italy, ranked second after Ceferino Garcia in NBA ratings of challenges for Henry Armstrong’s welterweight’ title, went down to defeat before Sonny Jones, nesro fighter from Vancouver, at Rockland Palace.

The Vancouver boy scored a six-round technical knockout

victory over the Italian.

Scheduled to go ten rounds as the main event on a Rockland Palace card, the fight was stopped by the referee after 1 minute and 47 seconds of the sixth. Fraittini’s eye was bleedins badly where Jones’ left had got in its deadly work.

Y OUNGER members of the Wancouver Sports Club are

throwing a lot of well-aimed leather these days, with more

than one eye fixed on the amateur championships.

Efficient

training methods are bringing fighting trim to rough and ready

material and it wouldn't Surprise us in the least if at least one of these lads—no names—found a spot for himself in the local fistic limelight this winter.

Half a dozen of these youngsters displayed their wares at the elub’s regular Saturday night show, stag- ing some pretty fair exhibition bouts.

PEHEABING of the Vancouver Sports Club reminds us that the club is swinging in behind the Provincial Recreation Centres movement, which now counts its deyotees in thousands. The WSC boys and Tan Wisenhardt’s squad of instructors have always got along pretty well and now, it Seems, we'll be writing about the

VSC girls.

Three weeks ago the club start- ed a gym class for women and girls and even in this short time a good membership has been built up.

This week we dropped in at the

Orange Hall to find the instruc- tor, Mrs. G. Henderson, putting the Sirls through their paces.

“This should be a good centre,” She told us. “The classes are held in the morning and this gives many of the girls a chance to ex ereise before going to work. The classes, which include paltet and tap dancing, are open to both Single and married women and provide an inexpensive way of keepine fit.

“We don’t exercise severely, of course,” Mrs. Henderson said, “but it's one way, and a very good way, of keeping weight down.’’

Mrs. Henderson told us some- thing of the tremendous popular- ity of the Pro-Ree centres and, having seen some of their crack troupes perform, we were only too inclined to agree with her that they are a force in maintaining health for thousands whose exercise might otherwise be confined to the morning dash for the streetcar.

Czechs

A suggestion advanced by one member that if the investigation were not commenced at once resig— nation of the BC Fruit Board should be demanded was not voted upon, although it met with unani- mous support.

Another resolution adopted by the meeting called for an immedi- ate 20 cent increase in the price of Macs.

PORT LANGLEY, BC, Sept. 29. —Langley Farmers Institute at its last meeting unanimously endorsed @ resolution demanding an investi- gation under the Combines Inves- tigation Act of charges made by Godfrey Isaacs and other prowers.

Announcing a meeting of pri- mary producers to be held under auspices of the institute next Wea- nesday, October 5, at Athletic Hall, Langley Prairie, W. LL. WDence, president of the BC Hothouse To- matoe Growers’ Association, said he had in his possession certain documents to support the startling disclosures he intended to make at the meeting.

The documents, it was stated, re- ferred to illegal methods used in the marketing of farm products.

Dence charged that indifference on the part of provincial and Do-

minion governments to alleged malpractices of produce broker eombines which, he said, were

strangling the primary producer. He declared that the Nash inter- ests of the United States, driven out of Canada a decade ago fol- lowing the government inquiry and Duncan report of that time, were back in Canada under another name and perpetrating worse in- jury on the producer than before.

‘France Will Pay Dearly’

MOSCOW, Sept. 20.—In a des- patch from Geneva, Izvestia, organ of the Soviet government, declared that “British concessions to Hitler have been torm from the living fiesh of Czechoslovakia. At this conference of four, France will in- evitably pay for her friendship with England.”

Condemning the addition of an- other aggressor, Mussolini, in the circle of negotiators, the despatch Stated it was “easy to imagine the role of France in this partnership of four in which two aggressors wall dictate their will, while a thira participant (Chamberlain) will seek in every way to satisfy the first tyro.’

Welcoming the suggestion from President Roosevelt for an interna- tional confernce to settle the Czech crisis, the newspaper denounced the present conference as ‘“‘mon- strour.”

Conferences should be for the purpose of uniting peaceful nations against aggressors, not an attempt on the part of ‘bourgeois imperial- ist statesmen” to strike a bargain with aggressors at the expense of Smaller countries, Izvestia com- mented.

The despatch emphatically con- demned Chamberiain’s third visit to Hitler as “strengthening the Fuehrer’s position by adding an- other aggressor.’””

CALCUTTA, India, Sept. 29-— indian newspapers described the British-Prench proposals to Czechoslovakia as a ‘‘shameful be— trayal” by Britain this week.
