New York. April l5 LPl-Ace Hud- kins' ten round bout with Armand Emanuel at Los Angeles tonight stands out as the high spot in this weeks national boxing program.

The Nebraska wild cat probably will be outweighed by 15 pounds. for Emanuel scales q few pounds over the light heavy weight limit. Hudkins is not even a big mlddleweight.

BASEBALL TEAMS OFF ON
 ANOTHER RACE TOMORROW
Six Weeks of Training Now Behind Major League Cubs-Six Months of Hard Grind Ahead of Them Weather Outlook is Not Altogether Bright President Hoover to Throw Out First Ball at Wash ingtOn-Old Timers to Be Missing From Lineups

New York, April 15 UP)-Like warriors resting upon their arms on the eve of battle, most of the 1j ma jor league clubs are taking things easy today in preparation for the official opening of the 1929 baseball season tomorrow.
 Six weeks of q strenuous training lie behind thenl-six months of pennant pursuit lie just ahcad.
 The ustomary predictions for a season and two close races having been made by the heads of organized baseball, all that remains is to raise the flags and as old Tim Hurst used 10 growl, 'Lrt 'er go.'
 While the season is scheduled 70 open tomorrow. it is quite possible that the inclement weather, espec- tally in the east. may necessitat" of several of the open ing games.
 Here is what the weather man in Washington thinks about the chances:
 National league
 Brooklyn at showers and cold.
 New York at Philadelphia- Probable rain.
 g. Louis at incinnati-Cloudy.
 Pittsburgh at Chicago-probable wet grounds.
 American league
 Boston al New York Showers.
 Detroit at Cleyeland--Cloudy.
 Philadelphia at Washington Showers.
 Chicago at St. Louls-Cloudy
 Altogether. the outlook is not "X- actiy bright. The prospect of ai even start when the barrier is sprung is remote. but one game makes a pennant race. and many an ardent baseball fan will rest un- easy tonight, impatient for the mor- row.
 There will be four new managers, many new faces and few new rules for this seasons fans.
 President Hoover is 10 try out his arm at Griffith stadium. with Wal ter Johnson. the new manager but old favorte Of the Washington Sen ators, on the receiving end Of the executives peg. Bucky Harris. for d number Of seasons pilot of the Senators. will lead his new club. the Tigers. into action at Cleveland.

TPON this bit OF an island about half
mile in length have been enacted some
of the worlds most historic scenes Just
prior to the Christian era subtribe of Gauls,
called PARISH selected the place as one easily
defended, and fortified it, calling it Lutetia.
Today, walking along the Ship" you come to
a short and narrow street, not more than q
hundred feet long by six feet broad, the Rue
de Ia Colombo. Here traced across the pave
ment is narrow line of stones, showing where
once stood part of the rude Notifications of
those ancient Gauls who fought the Romans
1000 years ago. And high above the ancient
site, marking the advance of man, is strung
from the roofs across the street the wires Of
a radio. Upon these ancient Gauls came the
conquering Romans, who built a pagan temple
to Jove on the site where few centuries later
was to rise Notre Dame, which has stood for
$50 years in its completed grandeur. Followed
the Franks from Clovis to Louis TX, who all
dwelt here upon the boat" Louis TX built
Sainte Chapelle Church. Under Charlemagne
in the year 800 the island became the capital
of France. In that same century the North
men beat up the Seine in their long ships time
and time again, laic siege to the city, sacked
it and ruined the suburban abbeys. Then fol-
lowed more peaceful times, till in 1853 the
first stone of Notre Dame was laid, and stu
stands as chief adornment to the stern OF the
"AEte" At one side of Notre Dame Is the

All of Paris in the beginning, and that part
of it today known as 1.-THE cite" (city), was
built upon a little island in the center OF the
River Seine. And that island in shape Is the
exact replica of great ship floating low in the
water, as one deeply laden. From this re-
markable likeness to large vessel the arms OF
Paris came to be drawn, a vessel with all canvas
set the motto of the city below it, 'u Flotte, Ne
Sonbre Pas" ct floats and will not sink)
Even in the days of the ancient Gauls, 2.OOO
wears ago. when the Seine flowed between
natural banks the islands resemblance TO
boat was very noticeable, as may be gathered
from the writings Of early Roman invaders.
TODAY when all around the island rise sheer
stone walls surmounted by parapet the erect
is greatly heightened, the parapet being just
like the bulwark of ship. You lean over 1t and
gaze into the jade-colored waters OF the SEINE
and feel exactly like you would upon an ocean
liner the rushing water giving the impression
of moving The towers OF Notre Dame' the
Conciergerie, and the spire OF Saince Cnapene'
aft and amidships, add to the snip-uke setting.
The end of the island is rounded exactly like
the stern of a vessel. Behind 1t Is the smaller
island St Louis joined to the stern by Q bridge,
looking for all the world like boat m tow,
tbus greatly increasing the resemblance. At
the nose of the ship block of gray stone build
tnes come to a point, outlining the shape with
Greater distinctness for the purpose Of air
photography And the whole effect can be
cantured on a single plate, as illustrated in
9i1e accompanying photograph, which makes
possible presenting in new way some m
teresting things about this part OF Paris.

Indeed, IL one were TO zeal fully with the

relics they house today, they would be writing
much of French history. Here only win be
attempted to touch upon the most striking parts
of the ship"
DASSING along from the Rue de Ia Co
Iombe near the stern, you reach the Rue
de Lutece where stands the statue of Renaudot,
who started the first newspaper in France in
1881 called the Gazette de France, ct No. 8
Ouai du Marche Neuf. This paper Is stin

publication was like In those ancient days, but
certainly Partisan newspapers today are poor
productions They contain almost no world
news There Is not small city In North
America which has not better daily both in
size and contents. To French editors the
world is France mostly Paris Their papers
mirror their ideas
The "ship" Is connected with the left and
right side Of Paris by nine "gangplanks." The
most interesting of these bridges is the Pont
Neuf which, translated means new bridge.
This is rather amusing. as it is the oldest
bridge in Paris, completed In 1910. 1t is near
the bow of the ship" Amidships on the left
side Is the Pont ST. Michel, and on the right
its continuation, the Point au Change. These

two bridges are perhaps Of the greatest m.
terest. Upon the earliest structure of the Point
au Change which was built of wood, were the
houses of the goldsmiths and moneychangerAs
hence the name. Several edificeS have since
replaced the wooden one. The last bridge was
completed in 1858, so IS very, very new, COM
pared to things around it.
The Point ST. Michel leads to the Boulevard
du Palais, which passes the o'clock of Gold" on
the corner of the Palais de Justice. The clock
is upon the wall of the Tour de PHorloge
(Tower of the Clock. Facing upon the Boule-
ward du Palais, this marvellous CLOCK of Gold"
has looked upon the coming and going of men
since 1885. And all those years it has kept
perfect time. It stands as an enduring and
indisputable proof of what great clock makers
there were in those days. Erected in 1885, it
has only been adjusted twice, In 1852 and 1909.
This is now proudly noted In lettering below
the clock. The gold face Is about the size
of the end of a large barrel and the gold is
very little faded The tower was built in 1893.
and there was an earlier clock than the one
which now adorns it. So 1t can be truthfully
said that clock has been ticking steadily
at this spot for 628 years
From this Tour de pHorloge according tO
some authorities Though it is much-disputed
point, it was said that bell was rung whiciR
sounded the signal for the massacre Of st.
Bartholomew.

important and by far the most interesting spot
of ALL. Here loom three towers. part OF the
