AUDITORIUM
OPENING
REASON
Garcia and Sanders Put
Up Dukes in Main
Attraction.

Due to the fact that the new city
auditorium will be formally opened
next Tuesday night, Promoter Jack
Shelton has decided to postpone his
cauliflower activities at the National
theater until Friday, April 90. Jack,
he himself declares, has as much pride
in the new municipal structure as the
next one, and so has no desire to de-
tract from the crowd expected for the
opening night.
However, Jack not only is doing
the city fathers n big favor by setting
his fight program up three days, but
also is enhancing the attractiveness of
his own card. George Sanders, scrap
ping little Hot Springs featherweight,
who meets Carlos Garcia in the fea-
ture 12-round bout, is billed to fight
in Mexico City Sunday night, so he
can use that extra three days of rest
right handily.
MUST BE AT BEST.
And Sanders will need to be at his
hest if he is to take Garcia's meas
ure. He had been in strict training
a month when he met Garcia two
weeks back, and the best he could get
that time was draw. So evenly
matched are these two little mixers
that either might turn the slightest
advantage into n victory for himself.
As an eight-round semi-windup to
Friday nights show. Shelton has
matched Al Mayen, classy little local
sharpshooter, against Mickey Genaro
a newcomer to the city. GenarO, who
says he is n cousin of frankie Genaro.
former flywcight champion, looks very
promising.
PALMER VS.. AZTEC KID.
Rabbit Palmer, the old warhorse and
former local favorite, will make his
first appearance in several months
when he tangles with the Aztec Kid
over the six-round route. The Aztec
Kid dropped a close decision to Al
Mayen on the last card.
Another six-rounder brings together
Martin Flaherty, who claims he was
fouled in his fight last Tuesday night
and Bobby Jackson, of FL Paso, the
alleged fouler. This will be one OF
them there grudge fights.
Red Graves, of Kelly Field, and

Rabbi Israel Herbert Levinthal,
of the Jerusalem Synagogue Center
Fund of the United Synagogue Of
America, has received from Messrs.
Gellin g. Ilecker, architects of Jeru-
salem, set of drawings embodying
their ideas of an appropriate group
ing of buildings for religious, civic
and cultural center for the Holy City.
The architects have borne in mind
in the development of their plans, in
order to meet the scruples of some of
the more orthodox elements of Jeru-
salem's Jewish population, that, un-
like the practice in this country of
housing the religious and secular fea-
lures and facilities of community
center under one roof, these features
must be under separate roofs. They
have also had to bear in mind that
with the likelihood of the constant
liberalizing of the Palestine immigra-
tion laws, the annual inflow of Jews
to that country is certain to become
very large. The group must there
fore be sufficiently flexible to meet
future demands, and also to safe
guard the asthetic loveliness of the
original composition, Notwithstanding
future expansions and additions.
Fits Into Palestine Background
Lastly. the terrain OF Jerusalem,
with its sharp ascents and descents,
its graceful, curving landscapes, its
mountainous perspective, bril- | / n
sunshine and sharp shadow, had to
be borne in mind lest the edifice, re-
gardless of its own intrinsic archi-
tectural beauty, would, nevertheless
be incongruous against the Palestine
background. This consideration gains
added Importance from the fact that
the proposed edifice will stand on one
of the highest spots in Jerusalem, and
will therefore be visible from every
part of the city, As the illustration
indicates, this consideration has, to-
gether with the feel of the Orient
controlled the plans prepared by
Messrs. Yellin & Hecker.
Will Have Prominent Site
For the present it is inexpedient TO
indicate the exact site Of the Jerusa-
lem Synagogue Center which is to be
an outright gift by American jews to
the Jews of Jerusalem. However, it
