SCOTT BEATS
ARCENTINAN
Englishman Withers Storm
In First Rcundy Comes
Back To Win

NEW YORK. Sept. "A. R1-The
shutting shifty figure Of Phil
Scott. British champion. today &C.
cupied the heavyweight c~ontender's
position that most OF the experts
had reserved for the galloping Gau-
cho from the Argentine, Victoria
Mario aCmpolc.
Scott won the 10-round decision
from Campolo last night at Ebbetts
field, and, as a result, must be
reckoned with in the heavyweight
derby, regardless Of the outcome Of
the 15-round elimination match
Thursday night between Jack Shar-
key and Tommy Loughran at the
Yankee stadium.
1t was a great comeback for
Scott. who was knocked out in one
round at Madison Square Garden
In 1927 by Knute Hansen, flo0red
for the count by Pauline in Europe
and close to being knocked out
again In the first round by Cam
polo last evening.
The Blond British giant had
hardly had time to. make a few
preliminary gestures last night when
he was in full retreat, doubled up
and badly punished by a succession
OF rights to the body. It took AL
Of SCOTS defensive instinct to sur
vive that round. but from then on
he gave an exhibition Of boxing
skill and fine display OF ring
age to outgeneral and outpoint his
bigger. harder Knitting opponent.
SCOTS margin was so close IL
took a 2 10 ] decision 10 give him
the victory. He received the vote Of
the two judges but referee Arthur
Dovonan cast his ballot for Cam
polo.

DALLAS. Sept. 24.-tP-The Dali
Las Steers, champions OF the Texas
league. we're speeding toward Bir-
mingham today to battle that city's
arons for southern baseball supre-
macy. Milt Stock and his men viii
reach the scene OF the first two bat
ties at IL o'clock tonight.
Despite the fact that only q hand
iul OF fans accompanied the team
from here ard that no attempt had
been made to raise a championship
iund for them, the Steers radiated
confidence when the squad OF Is
left last night. While Manager
Stock refused to the last to make
any predictions. his men were as
surfing each other and any bystand-
ers they would close out the South
ern Association kings In 4 games
live at the outside.
Two Of the Steers biggest guns
Jim Moore and Victor Frasier. were
ON the ailing list. and il is doubtful
either will see service until the
clubs return herr Saturday for the
second phase Of the series.
F~razier's two victories over the
Spudders I'm the play-off left his
youthful right arm in a state Of dis
repair. The club physician advised
him not to throw a baL for at least
three days. The more skeptical
were predicting the brilliant young
ster would not get into the Dixie
series. Such an e~ventuality. while
not probable. might prove fatal to
Dallas hopes.

SATISFACTION AT WESLEYAN

AS almost everyone interested in college athletics knows. the sports season at Wesleyan this year was more or less disastrous. At baseball particularly the college team made a sorry mesa of it. But there are other things than sports. and in these Wesleyan takes 2 just pride.
 The university. for instance. gain ed widespread recognition through the possession of glee club far above the average: it's oratorical representatives can talk and argue with the best of them. having won a pronounced victory in the annual New England intercollegiate oratori- cal contest.
 The slee club and oratorical vic- tories were secured against opposi- ton throughout the entire country. The winning of few piffling games of baseball or other sport events, none of which have anything in common with intellectually, would compare ill with this record.
 Wesleyan is to be congratulated on losing in sports and winning in the higher and harder elements of collegiate activities.

PROSPERITY

This is a prosperous nation. We buy more goods on the installment plan than the rest of the world com bined. The man who isn't buying som ething or other ''out of income" is . rara avis among the seething population. He doesn't know what it means to worry about where the money for the next payment is com- ing from.
 But that doesn't mean there is universal 100 per cent prosperity. Everybody isn't prosperous, if one would ask those who would like to buy more goods on the deferred payment plan but lack the courage to take the chance on not making all the payments.
 The meanest blow in the prosper ity situation is the admitted depres- sion in the real estate market. This hits the property holders, or some of them; and it has not taken long to hear all about their difficulties.
 The kind of prosperity we are having is becoming dieicult to un- derstand Some call it "spotty." Others frankly, and in that ex- pressive language one hears in the smoke shops, say it lis the bunk" What it really is We have no means of knowing. Maybe it is more or less of a political mirage. And maybe, if the poor Democrats happened to be in power. this prosperity would be called by another name.
