O'Brien will weigh four or fve pounds less than Ebbets for tonight's battle, but is not at all concerned about that and is predicting . win by a kayo. Both boys wound up their training at Hartford gymnasiums yesterday. O'Erien has locked fne in training: he seemed fast and strong ard has been punching hard.

KEEPS HIS TITLE
 DESPITE INJURY
Tod Morgan Has Too Much
 EIperienCe for Sal Sorio

Los Angeles. May 21 R>-Titular supremacy over the junior welter- weights remained today with Tod Morgan after he had staved off the savage attack of Baby Sal Sorio, Mexican challenger of San Bernar- dino, Cal.
 The challenger's flying fists, which have hammered 55 of his 75 op- ponents to the canvas for knockout victories, whanged away indstrious- ly at Morgan here last night but Sorio was unable to bore through the champions defense appreciably. Morgan took eight of the ten rounds for a decision.
 Baby Sal's challenge was ripped to shreds by the jabbing. slashing left hand of the champion. Morgan's long left found it's way to Sorio's head and body repeatedly, keeping the MeXican's head tilted back and his weight balancing on his heels ! Sorio was unable to unleash his short, jolting rights as often as he | desired.
 In two rounds, however, Baby sars hope was almost realized. He took the third and eighth sessions and had the champion in distress in both. In the third he nailed Morgan with several lefts and iarring right, and Tod went down. The champion l claimed foul but was orde, d tc

Revenge ia sweet and no one

Revenge Is sweet and no one knows this better than Louis "kid' kaplan, the Meriden buzz-saw, who by whipping Billy Wallace recently esta ablished himself as a serious con- tender for the lightweight cham pionship.
 It was an unexpected knockout over the Kid that catapulted Billy to national prominence and put kaplan back so far it has taken him all this while to climb back.
 When kaplan grew too big for the featherweishts more than two years ago. he gave up the crown in that division 10 try for the lightweight title.
 For his first fight as a lightie, the Kid journeyed to Cleveland to meet a hitherto unknown, Billy Wallace.
 Billy Gibson, the Kids manager. figured it just workout and . chance to get Louie used to the boys of the slightly heavier poundage. After four rounds of pummeling Wallace all over the ring, the Kid ran into Billy's dynamite right hand and down he went for the count. Kaplan cried like . baby after the fight and vowed Wallace couldn't do it again in . thousand years.
 But the K. o. made Billy a big shot attraction and Kaplan just an- other ligtweight. Wallace scared on and punched his way 10 right near the top of the heap. The Kid, meanwhile. fought often. winning most of his lights. but another knockout by Jimmy McLarnin kept him out Of the serious reckoning. Finally. Billy was induced to fight him again and came Louie"s biz chance.
 The fight was close but Kaplan punched out a clear win and put himself up with the contenders. He even had the pleasure of putting Willie on his back for a nine count in the first round.
 Kaplan may never win the title, but his victory over Wallace proves he'll show any lightweight in tho world. including Champion Sammy Mandell. enough gloves to make it very lively for him.

ROBINS AND GIANTS IN
 BATTLE FOR LAST PLACE
Braves and Phillies Furnishing Surprises in National :. League-Cubs Retain Lead by Defeating Pirates-
 Cardinals Trounce Cincinnati Reds - Brooklyn Measures New York Clan - Athletics Strengthen
 Hold on First Place at Expense of Boston Red Sox.
By the Associated Press.

It has been a long time since Ma tional league fans have had an op- portunity of watching the New York Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers battle it out for last place at this more or less late date in the season while the Boston Braves and Philadelphia take of a showing against the undeniably stronger western clubs. But that is just what they are watching now unless they decline to let themselves believe what they eyes tell them.
 In recent years when the center of National league strength has rested west of the Alleghenies. the Giants and to a lesser degree. the Robins, have been able to muster the strongest defenses for repelling western thrusts. This year these two clubs have made a sorry showing while the surpr.slng Phillies and the still more surprising Braves have at least put up some sort of battle to remain withing striking distance of the three leading western clubs Sn This condition. may, and probably will change but it has been an in- teresting phenomenon in a season full of strange occurrences.
 There may be some hope for the cast in the present cut throat com petition in the west where Cubs. Pi- rates, Cardinals and Reds are indulg- ing in a dog fight that is getting none of them anywhere.
 The Cubs maintained their hold on the lead by downing the Pirates. 6 to 1. behind Guy Bush's five hit pitching yesterday. The Cubs made their eight hits of Steve Swetonic count.
 At Cincinnati. Jess Haines record ed his 14th straight league victory in two seasons when he pitched the Cardinals to an easy to l triumph over the Reds. Haines finished the 1928 season with nine consecutive triumphs and has added five straight this year.
 At Brooklyn. the Robins trounced the Giants, 6 to 1. William Watson Clark. young left handler, giving the men of McGraw only two hits. Only in the fifth did Clark falter. In that frame two singles and a sacrifice gave the Giants their only run. The Dodgers pounded Karl Hubbell out of the box in the third but were stopped by Ralph Judd. a rookie.
 Cold weather forced pos, pone- ment of the Braves-Phils battle at Boston.
 OiH two American league games were scheduled. the Athletics strengthening their hold on first place by downing the Boston Red Sox, to l. while. the St. Louis Browns were beating Chicago, 6 to ].
 Eddie Rommel held the Red Sox to six hits in giving the As their fifth consecsticve victory and a lead of two full games over tho Yankees. Charlie Ruffing went the route for the Sox, allowing only eight hits but passing ten men.
 The Browns got to Thomas and Walsh for II hits while Sam Gray was limiting Chicago to 10. well scattered. It was Gray's first victory in his last four starts.
 The Yankees engaged in an exhi- hition game at New Haven, losing } to 2. to the Eastern league club of that city.

 However. it was plainly . case of too much experience, ring general. ship, and boxing skill for the youth. full challenger. With an advantage in reach, Morgan kept his tantalizing yet sharp left in Sorio's face and body constantly. In the fifth round. he scored with 25 lefts to the head and body without a return from the Mexican.

BE Science SerCtce
WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-"Gooss-
bone" weather prophets differ In
their forecasts of whether the forth.
coming winter viii be warm or cold,
but no matter which 1t Is, it will
start on scheduled time on Sunday,
Dec. %, at 1:53 a. M, central time.
That Is the moment Of the winter
solstice--the time at which the sun
reaches its farthest south position,
and is directly overhead at noon on
points along the Tropic of Capri
corn. Also, the nottern hemisphere,
the winter solstice marks the years
shortest day and longest night.
After the solstice the sun will rise
earlier gradually and set later, at
the same time climbing higher in the
sky each day. But though each
square foot of ground daily will re-
ceive a greater amount Of heat from
the sun, as it shines more and more
directly down upon 1t, the weather
will not get warmer for many weeks.
1t takes a long time for the earth
to absorb fully the heat that II re-
ceives, and for it TO take in more
than it gives on. Then warmer
weather begins to come.

Editor Of The ConKreRstienAiist
THE lesson theme as stated is
l. the topic for young people and
adults. The general lesson title,
The Child in a Christian World. !"
Is a little broader and simpler. and
it suggests the consideration of the
whole theme from the child's
standpoint as we'll as from the
standpoint of older folks.
The text Of the lesson In the
beautiful story of Mary, the child
Jesus, and the shepherds, is sug-
gestive rather than specific in its
application. II suggests first OF all
the supreme importance of the
child. not from any theoretical at
titude toward childhood, but simply
frdm the practical standpoint Of
the life forces inherent in babe.
1t might well induce in any thought
full person q reverent attitude to-
ward a newborn babe when he con-
siders all the possibilities of future
development, and power for good
or for evil, that are found in that
little life.
The artist has portrayed the In
FAINT Jesus In the manger with a
halo Of glory around His head, but
it is doubtful whether the shep-
herds saw any such manifestation.
Tie awe and wonder that they
brought to the infant Christ were
born of mystery. Had they not been
devout men, mindful of all the
marvellous things in Gods economy,
they would not have been so ready
to bring their tribute to a new
born babe. They showed in the
