This was the rather melan-
choly verdict the local weather
bureau rendered today for the
thousands of fans who waited
for the bell, that will send Paul
Berlenbach and Jack Delaney
on their 15-round journey to-
night to the worlds light heavy
weight title.
al postscript to the official
forecast, however, was slightly
more reassuring. It spoke of
cloudy and unsettled conditions
tonight" and the weather man
said it was quite possible that
the rain might hold off long
enough for the fight to take
place. A stiff northeast wind
also was predicted.

He has the skill, he has the
speed, the punch and general smart
ness. He will go shooting for the
second greatest honor within the
gift of the great sport of boxing
and, for once, he appears to be
set. Six months ago, he attempted
to take the title away from Ber-
lenhach suffering from a hangover
nf appendicitis and septic poisoning.
He naturally didn't click.
Tonight, he is supposed to have
everything. In fact, the only fear
n the Delaney camp is that he
NAV have overdone the thing. Ten
DAYS ago, he was absolutely right
and. unfortunately, man doesn't
stay that way for more than a
passing hour or so. Anyhow, De-
laney was trained within an inch
of his life today as he waited for
the weighing in ceremony at 2
o'clock this afternoon.
Both will be required to make

the light heavyweight limit. Neither

figured to lose 1t with plenty to

Delaney WON'T weigh more than

That Drake is indeed q very

CONFERENCE IDEA
 IS NOT FAVORED
Breakup Of Harvard and Prince
 ton Won't Hurry New Move

New York, Nov. 23 R-The pop ular idea that an eastern football conference might grow out of the breakup Of the time -honored Har- vard Yale Princeton, triumvirate has no prospect of being realized, at least for next year, in the belief of college authorities, who have can vassed the situation. Groundwork is being laid however, for it by the new grouping among major teams.
 Most authorities admit that the path for a conference has been made easier by the end of the Big Three" but other difficulties remain. Many barriers of tradition still exist. It is pointed out also that various sec tional interests and the wide range of playing standards handicap any scheme to bring together an appre- ciable number of colleges in one common fold Still another obiec- tion comes from those college off cials who feel that any attempt to organize d conference would put too much emphasis on championships.
 Even though these factors com hine to "bury' the conference pro- posal for another season, the revival of some old rivalries and the crea- ton of new ones will sharpen the competitive interest in the 1927 gridiron slate, adding fresh tests for appraisal. Chief among these will be the games bringing Harvard and Pennsylvania together for the first time since 1905, and Princeton into conflict with Cornell for the first time since 1907. Both games are under two-year contracts and may become fixtures again. Both also will contribute much to giving

ZONE LAW UPHELD
 BY SUPREME COURT
Cities Have Right to Restrict
 Property Its View

Washington, No. 23 - The right of municipalities 10 enforce the zon, ing of business and residence prop erty is sustained by the United States Supreme Court.
 The court pointed out that some provisions of zoning regulations may be found clearly arbitrary or unrea- sonable when applied in certain cir cumstances. But, it was maintained relief might be sought in such eases without attacking the regulations in their entirety or the constltntionality or the laws upon which they were based. Three members of the court Associate Justices Van Devanter, Nc Reynolds and Butler-dissented, but lid not file their views in written form.
 The case came to the court on ap- peal by the cillage of Euclid, a sub urh of Cleveland, Ohio. The Federal court for the Northern District of Ohio, on petition of the Ambler Realty company. and held that the zoning ordinance passed by the NlI- lage Council was void and enjoined it's enforcement.
 The village had classified the real ty company's holdings as residential lots. whereas the company wanted them zoned as business lots. The company asserted that it's property was worth St0,0OO an acre if used as business sites, but not more than s2,5O0 an acre for residential pur- poses. It contended that the ground was more suitable for business uses
 The realty company assailed the orinance on the ground that 1t was in derogation of Article 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Con- stitution, in that it deprived the con- cern of liberty and property without due process Of law and, further. that it denied the equal protection of the law.
 The supreme court suggested in its opinion that segregation of resi- dence, business and industrial build ings increases the security of home
 
 dents. especially to children; de- creases noise and other conditions which produce or intensity nervous disorders and preserves more favor able environment in which to rear the young It suggested menace in in, advance of the apartment house into districts that might be reserved for individual dwellings. It suggested that in some circumstances apart ment houses "come very near to be- ing nuisances." It justified the zoning system as analogous to regulations governing traffic on city highways
 While no direct reference was made to New York, the court point ed out that there was no difference of opinion as to the validity of laws fixing the height of buildings.
 The Euclid Village ordinance de- fined the residence zone as one re- stricted to single-family dwellings, public parks. water towers, electric railway passenger stations and rights of way, and farming and non-com- mercial greenhouses. nurseries and truck gardens. The court pointed out that this does not specifically au- thorize schools, churches or apart ment houses.
 Building laws are of modern origin" the court said. Negotiations, the wisdom, necessity and validity of which. as applied to existing condi- lions, are so apparent that they are uniformly sustained, a century ago. or even half century ago, probably would have been rejected as ar

bitrary and oppressive. Such regu- lations are sustained, under the com plex conditions of our day. for req sons analogous to those which justi- fy traffic regulations, which before the advent of automobiles and rapid 1 transit street railways, would have been condemned as fatally arbitrary and unreasonable.
 Tn this there is no inconsistency. ! for. while the meaning of constitu- tional guarantees never varies, the scope of their application must ex- pand or contract to meet the new and different conditions which are constantly coming within the field of their operation. In changing world, it Is impossible that it should be otherwise.
 'The ordinance now under review and all similar laws and regulations must find their justification in some aspect of the police power, asserted for the public welfare. The line which in this field separates the legitimate from the illegitimate as sumption of power is not capable of precise delimitation. A regulatory zoning ordinance which would be clearly valid as applied to the great cities might be clearly invalid as applied to rural communities A nuisance may be merely right thing in the wrong place-like pig in the parlor. instead of In the barn. yard"
 The court said the serious ques- ton in the present case arose over the provisions of the ordinance ex- cluding from residence districts apartment houses, business houses, retail stores and shops and other like establishments. The question, it said. involves the validity of what is really the crux of the more recent zoning legislation, namely, the creation and maintenance of residence districts from which business and trade of every sort, including hotels and apartment houses, are excluded.
 The decisions of the courts on this question, the supreme court ob- served, are numerous and conflict ing, but those which broadly sustain the power greatly outnumber those which deny it altogether or mar rowly limit it.
 With particular reference to apartment houses, it was stated that the development of detached house sections was greatly retarded by the coming of apartment houses, which had sometimes resulted in destroy ing the entire section for private house purposes: that in such sec lions very often the apartment house was a mere parasite. con- structed in order to take advantage of open spaces and attractive sur roundings created by the residential character of the district. After cit ing the annoyances in the - of apartment house congestion, the court said that Apartment houses which, in different environment would be not only not objectionable but highly desirable. come very near to being nuisances.'
 The court concluded with the as- sertion that the ordinance challeng- ed lis valid exercise of authority"
