n en WILL WORKOUT THi'
lolph Thomas, manager of Willie'
Median's iiffaira, announced last night
that his heavy will train at Lewis'
training quarters: on Washington 8treet
this afternoon. Bob Courts, who meets
Jack Lynch in the New Years' special,
and Rod Gardner will act an sparring
partners for the Oakland lad.
Willie has lost the famous girth he
has outgrown it or rather he has
irrown out around it. He is built for
hard work and from all accounts Wil-,
lum has no fear of labor, physical or
mental. Manager Thomas says Mee
han was never in better condition or fit
for a harder battle than he is today.
The local training work will be more
In the nature of exhibitions for the
fans who are invited to watch the old
boy try out.
Joie Coffee, fetherweight champictf
of the Pacific coast, accompanied
Meehan and Thomas to Phoenix to rest
up for a few weeks after a hard cam
paign on the coast. Joie says he didn't
come down to fight, but Manager Mc
Ahren is trying to persuade the coast
loy to take on r.ome good feather New
Year's afternoon.
After Mrehan completes his labors
this afternoon Wild Bill Reed will give
public workout at Lewia training
fiuarters. Hardlooking Wright and
Mark Spaw will try to find out how
wild Peed really ia. Wright and Spaw
can take a good punch and should give
Heed plenty of exercise in a workout.
Spaw and Red Gardner will shine in
the semi-final six-round event. These
coys have been going good in bouts
throughout the state, Gardner's most
notable performance being his kayo of
Happy Woods. Spaw has never bat
tled Woods, but he contends that he
ran heat Happy if he ever gets him :n
the ring. Gardner has improved 100
rr cent since his fight here with
Rattling Scotty.
Scotty and Alger come together in a
six-round event for their second meet
ing. Either fighter matched in a six
round event assures the crowd of real
fisrht from the gong. Scotty is slow
starting, but once he gets under way
his opponent is forced to,step to keep
ip wun mm. reports1 irom Miami
state that Alger is goinff good at the
present time.
The eight-round special between Bob
Courts and Jack Lynch looks good on
paper. Courts is new to local fans, but
Lynch won his first and only start In
riioenix defeating Happy Woods in ten
rounds.
Nothing definite has been agreed
upon for the curtain raiser, as Match
maker McAhren Is waiting for an an
swer from a pair of local boxers If he
Kigns the bout it will be a million dol
lar box office attraction. Two lady
boxers would bo an Innovation in Ari
zona. The champion lady bag puncher
of America is due to pass through here
farly in January on a vaudeville tour.
If the local boxing club can arrange
with her to cancel a week's booking i
Rait Lako City she will come direct to
Phoenix and appear on the New Year's
cord with a local girl athlete.
Th holiday boxing card will ,be
modeled especially for th fair sex,
with Willie Meehan, the ladies' favor
ite, in tho stellar role. Willie may
even do a sketch before the main event.
There is no denying Willie Is a lion
with tho women folk;.
The management has promised that
everything possiblo will be provided
for the comfort and entertainment of
the women folks. No rowdyism will be
tolerated in th stadium this order
will be enforced by special officers
stationed throughout the enclosure.
With nice weather, which the-weather
man has promised, the arena will he
packed from fence to fence, and the
fair fanettes will be a large percentage
among those present.

ECONOMIC EVILS OF
FREIGHT TflflFFIC
TO BE 'SCRAPPED"
Super-costly freight tenninals, de
layed tonnage and losses which follow
in the wake of freight congestion, are
economic evils which are to be
"scrapped" under plana now being
worked out by the transportation com
mittee of tho Federal Highway council.
At
a meeting of this committee in New york representing the president
York under th chairmanship oL. v-. -vt v,,- tt. u..
New
AT ,i BaI2.', ge"eral trafflc manager
of the Otis Elevator company, traffic
managers from all important centers of
industry were in attendance. It was de
cided to "draft" one or more cities in
the United States and put what Is
known as store-door delivery to a final
test. Such form of delivery, it was
explained, was the use of the motor
truck and highway in conveying freight
direct to the door of the consignee,
instead of allowing tonnage to accu
mulate in warehouses, thus adding to
congestion and financial loss which
ultimately come out of the consumer's
pocket.
nr-.ti t uc fv,n-(r, ,m,.
presented by J. C. Lincoln; manager cf
the traffic bureau of tho merchants'
association of New York:
Whereas, It is the view of the trans
portation committee of the Federal
highway council that relief from con
gestion and delay that normally pre
vails at railroad delivery stations in
the handlling of merchandise freight
requiring station or platform service
Can only be secured by the introduction
of a system for store door delivery;
Be it resolved that. The sub-corn
mittee on store door delivery be in
structed to take the matter up with
the carriers and shipping interests at
one or more points to te selected by
them with the end in view of inaugu
rating a store door delivery plan at
such point or points together with the
rates, rules, and regulations inder
which it should be operated; and
Be it further resolved. That they are
hereby instructed to report to the gen
era! meeting of the transportation
committe a concrete plan for its ap
proval.
Prior to the adoption of the resolu
tion, A. E. Beck, general traffic man
ager of the Merchants and Manufac
turers association at Baltimore, out
lined . the store door delivery system
as tested In that city.
The motor truck in terminal work
was presented by B. F. Fitch, presi
dent of the Motor Terminal company
of Cleveland, Ohio, which has success
fully established at Cincinnati a sys
tem of auxiliary transportation that
promises practical relief to other cities
Other phases of highway transport
were covered by S. M. Williams, chair
man of the Federal Highway council;
David Beecroft of the Class Journal
company of New York; J. H. Collins,
n.anager of the research department.
Chilton company, Priladelphia.
Mr. Beecroft's committee, in addition
to furthering the making of adequate
transportation surveys, and establish
ing proper control of highway traffic,
took up the subject of snow removal as
an essential item in highway mainten
once with the result that a recommen
dation was made to the American As
Eoclation of State Highway officials,
In annual meeting In Washington, :n
which attention was called to the mat
ter as follows:
"The Federal Highway Council com
mitte on study of highway transport,
etc., during its meeting on ttec. 10 at
Hotel Commodore, discussed thorough
ly the matter of snow removal from
highways. It was the expressed belief
of all present that the matter of snow
removal should be considered as prop
erly coming under the head of highway
maintenance.
"It was thought a discussion of this
subject in your meeting would bring
rut the most authoritative opinions in
the country, and possibly lead to the
taking of definite steps to annually
Offered
provide fund3 for this purpose by the
several states."
The committee of which Mr. Collins
i3 chairman, reported to its study of
the rural motor express. Better farm
transportation is the essential aim of
this committee and to attain its pur
pose a study is being made covering
franchises, insurance, uniform receipts
and bill of lading, marketing and re
turn loads. Progress toward a stan
dardization of this form of farm trans
portation was reported.
The transportation committee of the
Federal Highway council, Includes rep
resentatives of the railroads steam
and electric express companies, wa-'tM-ways,
highways, leading traffic men
and highway officials. ,
The American Railway association
was represented by F. E. Williamson
