Gus Lesnevich Forgets
Heavyweight Shot; Wants
Back Light-Heavy Crown
Minus the light-heavyweight
crown that he carried across the
Atlantic, Gus Lesnevich sails back
to the U. S. A. Friday from England,
where he lost his title to Freddie!
Mills in a 15-round go Monday
night. |
The largest fight crowd in the
history of English boxing, 46,000,,
filled White City Stadium and j
saw Mills bring blcod in the first
round from. Lesnevich's face with
a wicked right hook. Then they
saw Mills go on to take the fight
on the decis on of Referee Teddy
Waltham^the only official. How
ever, the Associated Press score
sheet gave seven rounds to Gus,
live to Mills and three even.
Lesnevich, who is signed for a
return crack at Mills, had held
the title since 1941.
With the loss of his light-heavy
veight crown, Gus' hopes of fight
ing for the heavyweight .title went
to pieces.
VETS' PROBLEMS
Q ? After I have repaid the a
mcunt I borrowed under the G-I
Hill, is my loan guaranty privilege
restored to its originr.l amount?
A ? No. You may use the full
cmount of your loan rights only
once.
Q ? Do the guaranty or insur
ance provisions of the G-I Bill
;imit the total amount th. t I can
borrow ?
~ A* ? No. The size of the loan
depends on what the _lender is
willing to lend. The limitation is
m the amount of the VA guaranty
and not on the size of the loan.
Q ? I was refused an applica
.ion for a loon by one lender and
now would like to know what I
should do to get a guaranteed loan
on a business venture?
A ? The VA regional office in
ycur ;-.rea might be able to put
you in touch with a lende; who
makes G-I loans.
Q ? May a veteran obtain a
guaranteed loan to buy or estab
lish a business if he is employed?
A ? Yes. If he plans to conduct
the new business himself, either
on a full-time or part-time basis.

We've been talking to Coach
Barnwell dur.iig the last few days
ard well may it be s. id that he is'
making big plans for the coming \
season. He is very much interested j
in his new job and wants to makei
a go of it. All he asks for is some!
oacking and cooperation.
So?all you fellows who want'
to olay football this fail should
be making plans to turn out at1

co eh that you do know the mean- i

And we think the town is interest- i
ed enough to back the football
squad. We hope so, at any rate.
We were very scrry to see Gusj
Lesnev.cn lo.^e his light-heavy
title Monday night to Freddie Mills'
in England. We thought Gus had
a good chance in the race for the'
vacant heavy-weight crown and
we still think he has, though he
may not be included in the run
ning.
Who says umpires can't play

FARM QUESTIONS I
QUESTION?How much labor is
needed to detas>el one acre cf hy
brid se^d corn? ?
ANSWER?About 20 to 30 man
h' u: >.
QUESTION?Can t.ssels be re
removed early?
ANSWER?As long as the whole
tassel can be removed w.thout re-:
mov.n^ more than one leaf, there
is very little danger to the plant.!
Trie tassel should be developed
sufficiently tc permit removal of
the whole tassel r-ther than the
tip of the branches. . |
QUESTION ? Does detasseling
require daily trips through the
field?
ANSWER?It usually does. The
main purpose is to prevent sh^d
d ng. Tassels missed one day will!
likely be shed-ding by the second
day. |
QUESTION?Does seed from im-(
properly detasseled fields look dif- |
ierent from that of prcperly.de
.a.-seled fields.
ANSWER?No. It is the invisible
sion is considering plans to develop
water impoundments in the Butner
tr. ct for public fishing. Special
emphasis will be placzd on rabbits
and quail, with the possibility of
using parts of the area to demon
strate small game management.
Present plans call for using the
Camp Butner area primarily as a
.iemenstration and distribution
area for farm and forest game.
Under the provisions of the
Burke bill, passed by the 80th
Congress, lands declared surplus
by the War Department may be
made cvailable without cost to

ANSWER?By harvesting early,
drying promptly, and treating the
grain, cribs, e:c., with DDT to keep
weevils under contrcl. Old grain
should not be overlooked. Grain
that is now stored on the farm
may be breeding-up a population

to j-our new crop in the field. If
grain cannct be sold or treat

used to cover the grain should
prove hclptul in keeping the in

In just two years we've built and sold
more fine cars than any other new
manufacturer in automobile history.
Why? Because America fell in love with
the KAISER and the FRAZER on sight.
Folks are streaming hi to Kaiser-Frazer
showrooms and learning from present
owners how dependable these two great
cars are. They're learning ?from people
who drive them ? how soundly they are
built... how economical they are ... how
much enjoyment there is in owning one.
THESE ARE THE MOST-COPIED CARS
IN AMERICA, road-proved by 250,OCD
owners in two billion miles of driving.
Because plenty of Americans insist on
comfort, convenience, style and value,
traditional leaders had to "move over" ??
as Kaiser-Frazer became the fourth
largest manufacturer of motor cars in
the world in two short years.
Why wait? Enjoy your new car th's
summer. You'll get fair treatment Oi. J
