AGE EIGHT-THE MORNING AVALANCHE LUBBOCK, TEXAS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1935 Legion Chief Is A Battler Bat J. Ray Murphy Does Not Like To Fight Because He Knows The Injury His Big Fists Can Inflict Fish Production To Be Stepped Up In AUSTIN, Nov. state game, fish and oyster commission today launched a program for stepping up of fish at its nine state latcheries. DES MOINES, Nov. 7.

J. Ray Murphy, commander of the American Legion, is afraid to light with his not because he fears a punch on the nose, but because he knows the injury his hammer-like hands can inflict. a i well over six feet, Murpjiy has a broad frame which carriee 225 pounds of muscle little soften- Murphy ed by 48 years of life. He has fought with his fists, and he has fought with war's weapons. He was a national guardsman on the Mexican border in 1917, and later a machine gun company captain in Prance.

And he hopes above all that his and other men's sons never wil. have to fight with machine gun slugs, bayonets, rifles, hand grenades and bombs. Defense of the nation is war's only justification, he believes. Sons On Football Team Murphy's two sons both play on the high school football team at Ida Grove, where their fathe played. Ida Grove still is Murphy' "home town," although Des Moinos is his headquarters.

Iowa legion men began talking Ray Murphy for national commander six or seven years ago. He served as post, district and state commander, as well as in national offices. "Here's the kind of a man he is," explains an Iowa legion official who has "talked Murphy" until dawn at several national conventions. "He's a Catholic, but his wife is a protestant. In Ida Grove, he often attends mass in his own church, then goes on to sing in his wife's church." Squelches Husky Private Once Murphy, while a militiaman on the border, saw a husky private hurl a soldier much smaller than himself Into a corner for no good reason.

"Try that on me," Murphy told the burly private, "or apologize to him." The husky one squared away, thought better of It and muttered, "I'm sorry." During the years Murphy has served the legion, he also has made a career in law and politics. This year, while he serves as national commander, he is taking a leave of absence from his post as Iowa's in surance commissioner. Wm. J. Tucker, executive secretary of the commission, formally placed the nine hatchery superintendents under direction of Dr.

A. H. Wiebe, who outlined the new arograin. To Abandon Policy Dr. Wiebe said that in line with a policy adopted by the commissioi the practice of stocking and restocking private bodies of water woulc be abandoned.

Fish, once supplied by hatcheries are intended, he said "as brood stock and not to meet all the demands of fishermen." He explained that a lake once stocked, with occasional exceptions should be self-sustaining if tn fishery was properly managed. Tightening distribution methods he said, was to enable the commis sion to supply more public water with fish "so that a greater numbe of people may enjoy fishing." Warns Against Overstocking Likewise he warned the superin tendents against overstocking lakes "an evil to be avoided because over crowding means an exhaustion the food supply in the lake wit the result either of starvation or little growth of the fish." He recommended certain remedies for the problem of controlling excess vegetation in the hatchery ponds. An evil of superflous vegetation, he said, was excessive decomposition in late summer, causing dioxide anil depletion of dissolved oxygen in the water. Dr. Wiebe instructed superintendents on measures to control fish parasites, especially tapeworms and a protozoan found in stagnant waters.

Man Is Said To Have Taken Mail Sack To Gain Treatment OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 7. United States Commissioner George J. Eacock heard the guilty plea of a Shreveport, man today, said lie thought the man turned to crime to obtain hospitalizatlon in a jail, and refused to incarcerate him. J.

C. Carter, 30, the defendant, admitted taking a mail pouch from a railway station at Clinton last week. "Two hours after the theft," Eacock said, 'Carter walked up to the Clinton chief of plice, handed him the pouch and package, and announced his crime." The commissioner accepted Carter's plea of guilt at arraignment released him on his own recognizance to be sentenced later, and rejected the man's request to be sen to jail because of illness.
