CRUISER PROBLEM
 DELAYS NAVAL CUT
U. s. and Britain in Accord on
 Other Points

Washington, Aug. 30 P-Ob- stacles to an accord between the United States and Great Britain on complete naval equality apparently have been reduced to certain aspects of the complex cruiser problem which caused the failure of the tri- rartite conference of 1927.
 Each government has placed It's viewpoint on this question before the other in detail, however, and, while further discussion will be ne cessary, Washington officials are hopeful that the remaining differ mated and an agreement announced in a few days.
 The preparation and presentation of the American viewpoint for Prime Minister MacDonald's consid- eration is the task which has kept President Hoover and Secretaries Stimson and Adams and Undersec- retary Cotton working overtime re- gently and filing many pages of cable correspondence to Ambassador Dawes.
 DestrOycrs No Puzzle
 Insofar as destroyer and sub marine strength IS concerned, little difficulty is seen n the way of an agreement between the two govern- ments to bring their navies to the basis of parity agreed upon at the outset of the negotiations, when the British prime minister accepted the principle that they should be equal in strength in all categories Of ves- SelS.
 Indications now are that 1886 will be selected as the year for at taining of that equality. and that any agreements which may be reached at the contemplated five power naval conference would be timed to expire in that year so that another accord could be negotiated taking into consid Arltion changed conditions and experience. The 5-53 treaty negotiated at Washing ton in 1922, which established Brit ish-American parity in battleship and airplane carrier tonnage, also will expire in 1886, thus laying the whole problem open +o reconsldera- ton at that time in the event of a general agreement on criuser, sub marine and destroyer strength in the near future.

CHOCOLATE KEEPS
 RECORD UNSULLIED
Cuban Wins Final Decision in
 Slashing Go With Singer

New York, Aug. 30 (UP)-The amazing ring record of Cuba's Kid Chocolate, still was unmarred by de- feat today but the smiling Cuban negro has found at least one foe who can give him a run for his money.
 Through 12 rounds of bristling action, dazzling exhibition of box ing skill punctuated by sporadic C.. ocolate and Young Al Singer, Hebrew idol of the Bronx, battled at the Polo Grounds last night with the final decision going to the Cuban.
 So close was the struggle that some portion of the crowd of 45,000 who damned their way into the home of the New York baseball Giants, booed Justify when the de- cision was announced. Even the judges and the referee failed to agree, two voting for Chocolate and one for Singer. The Associated Press score sheet gave Chocolate six rounds, Singer four, with two even.
 There were no knockdowns but there was plenty of action. Against Singers superior aggressiveness and harder hitting power, Chocolate fought a heady battle. He was content to lay back, keep Singer off with a snaky left until the going o 1o t., ously and had the Bronx idol hold ing on at several stages of the battle. Singer found little use for his famous right hand with which he knocked out Andre Routis, of France, the featherweight cham pion. Chocolate outgeneralled him the whole way, tied him up effec- lively in the clinches and had Singer swinging wildly at times. Despite a weight deficit of nearly four pounds, the dusky Cuban was the stronger at the close.
 Although neither seemed at any time to be in any particular danger of Knockout there were not a few moments when it appeared that few more blows to the right spot might cut the fight short and send one or the other home victor by other than the decision route.
 In the fifth, the Cuban caught Singer with one right 10 the chin that nearly fioored the Bronx lad and in the eighth, a right uppercut forced Al to hold on while his head cleared. On the other side of the picture Singer unleashed two brilliant at tacks-in the second and eleventh l rounds-that had Chocolate back pedalling and bit shaky and un- certain.
 In the twelfth and final round Chocolate staged furious rally that had Singer on the ropes.
 Chocolate weighed 125 pounds; Singer 12S 3-4.
 The gate was in excess of s2On.- 900. the biggest purse any division lighter than the lightweights ever has drawn.

OUTLAW IS KILLED
 AFTER GUN BATTLE
Two Oklahoma Officers Die But
 End Bandits Career

Tulsa, Okla, Aug. 30 tP)-Search was started today for a companion of Dick Gregg, who fled from the scene of a pistol fight yesterday in which the notorious Oklahoma out law and two Tulsa county officers were killed.
 The fight occurred on the Sands Springs highway west Of her5 when the two officers, Ross Darrow end A. l.. Bowling, stopped Gregg, who vas wanted in connection witt three Oklahoma bank robberies. Gregg shot Bowling as he jumped cn the running board of the bandits car and then turned his gun on Oar row, who fired at the same time. Gregg slumped into the seat of the car and Darrow fell to the pave ment.
 Witnesses said that two men ciambered from the outlaws ar and ran when the shooting began, Bob Dyer, 20, an Indian cowboy from Tawhuska, who was arrested a few minutes later said he had been with Gregg. He was intoxicated, officers said, and was unable to give a description of the third man in the car. Officers were inclined to be- lieVe he was one of Gregga part ners in the bank robberies for which he was wanted.
 Search for Third Man
 The search had spread to three counties near Tulsa, and officers said it would become state wide if no trace of the man could be found in this section.
 In addition to the three Oklahoma robberies, Gregg also was wanted in connection with the holdup of the Peoples State Bank of Wichita, kas., July 2G.
 Gregg, who was said to have been friendly with Al Spencer, and was believed by many Oklahoma officers to have been a member of Spencer's gang of outlaws who for many years had rendezvous in the Osage Hills from which they swooped down on small towns in southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma. escaped from the Osage coutny jail at Pawhuska

ACKNOWLEDGE DEFEAT
New York Giants Issue Challenge to Yankees For a City Series at End of Season.

New York, Aug. 30 UP)-Tht New York Giants have acknowleds- ed defeat in the 1929 race for the National league pennant.
 The signal of accepted failure came yesterday in the form of a challenge to the Yankees for a city series at the end of the regular season. The challenge was handed to Coach Bob Shawkey of the Bronx team by Secretary James J. Tierney and First Baseman Bill Terry of the Harlem nine, to be re- layed to Colonel Jake Ruppert.
 Brooklyn fans are likely to oues- ton the right of such a series to be ballyhooed as deciding the su- premacy of Greater New York for the Flatbush team needs only one more victory over the Giants to assure it of at least an even break for the season. Two victories in the five remaining games would give Brooklyn the edge.
 There seemed little chance of such a series, however, as Col, Ruppert is understood to be against the plan. The last time the two teams met, with only the city title at stake, was in 1914 when the Giants rapped the Tanks with ease.
