HAVANA. Oct. 31.-Cuba has solved the problem of intemperance by eating ice cream and drinking non-a- coholic beverages.
 Despite the fact that there are bars everywhere in Ha- vana, there is little drunk enness. Cuba is the native land of Daeardi Rum but the sales to Cubans are compara- lively small. Whiskey and other powerful drinks are sold exclusively to visitors in Cuba.

Jimmy McLarnin-the Harp
NJ that tWanged the cords In Sid
/ Y Terris' chin just once TO become
the lightweight sensation of the
day-will have his chance tonight to
strum knockout music on the jaw OF
Sammy Mandell, champion of the divi-
sion.
The boys who wager on fistic combat
laid odds of 2 to !, however, that the
clever titleholder from Rockford, H.,
would evade~ the knockout wallop in
McIarnin's right hand They were less
confident that a new champion would
not be crowned at the end OF the 10
round skirmiSh in the Polo Grounds, the
first major combat of the season. Man
dell was a bare 6-to-5 fayorite II the
fight went the limit.
Mandell, natural lightweight, ex-
oected no difficulty with the scales, While
McLarnin, who started his career as a
tiyweight. was close indeed TO the class
limit of 135 pounds.
The boys who put their cash on Man
dell, despite the allround skill, speed
and rinecraft of the champion, shud-
dered a bit at the thought of what hap
pened when that other ring flash, Sid

door season Although the punch trav-
elled too fast fsT the eyes OF most OF

ring critics now believe that Mandell,

challenger Although McLarnin boasts

Kid Kaplan. in addition to Terris. and
decisive victory over Billy Wallace,
Cleveland contender, critics forecast
that Mandell will outsnart the Califor-
mia Celt and climb up of the floor ii

I1mph for the old Kankakee Iller.
Twenty years ago Johnny Hayes mace
himself a national idol by his mara
thon victory, even though 1t was
gained because of the collapse OF the
italian. Dorando, who had led Johnny
into the stadium by substantial mar
gin and who would have won had MS
Stamina been enough to carry him over
the remaining few hundred yards.
Comedy Touch Added.
The tragedy IN that race over Do
rando's downfall had comic relief
in the protest Of Hefferon, the South
African, who finished second, that
HAYES also was helped across the
finish. Hefferon was not inside the
stadium when Hayes finished and mad
no basis for such protest, unless he
figured 1t was one way OF joining the
general argument that the finisn
aroused.
Hefferon's friends. in extenuation of
his failure to win, explained later that
the distance was too short for him and
that he was not at his best under about
40 miles.
No other Olympic event is so univer-
sal in interest or representation as the
marathon. Twenty nations entered
runners in the 1912 race. Thirty were
represented in 1924. when Finland,
