The market opened strong and gains were fairly well maintained, although at midday profit-taking cropped out and the leaders receded from their high levels.

 Middle West Utilities was tn spectacular performer. V The com pany, an Insull property, Is mention ed in Wall Street rumors of mid western merger. The Mellon stocks again were strong. Aluminium Con- pany established a new high at 4OS1a. and Gulf Oil shot up to 191 F also a record price. Last night Gulf closed at 1855.
 The oils as a group were irregular on announcement of record pro duction figures. Substantial gains were registered by the three chief producing areas-TeXas, Oklahoma and California. If California's new gas waste law proves effective next month. oil authorities look for 1GO,0OO to 250,o00 barrel daily re- duCtion.
 The airplane stocks turned heavy on a light volume of trading.

Washington. July 10 (Pj - The first woman has yet to earn a living by practical flying, and in exhibition aviation of all kinds no woman holds worlds record.

 No Commercial Pilots
 He said today that although sew on women have obtained transport pilots pared with A. 500 masculine pilots of this class and although a total of 65 women have been licensed 10 fly, not one has ever engaged in commercial lures have been entirely in the field of exhibition flying, he added, 47 being licensed to take up pri- vate aircraft. 10 to carry passen- gers within 10 miles of designated fields, and one to carry baggage or messages, but not passengers.
 The National Aeronautic associa- ton has established a separate file for women's records. Not one of these equals mems achievements in the same phase of aviation.

YOUNG PLANNING
 MORE DECEPTION
Pennsylvania Grid Mentor Pre-
 paTes for Coming Season

Philadelphia, Sept. 4 LP}-Pennsyl- Vania will have something a bit out of the ordinary to offer California when the Golden Bears of the west come east this fall to battle the Quakers in one of the biggest inter- sectional duels of the year on Franklin Field.
 For several years, now, curly headed Lou Young, crafty head coach of Penns uniformly fine clevcns, has gone farther than any other football leader in the East in the development of deception in his running attack. He made a power full weapon of the hidden ball plays that developed considerable contro- Ncrsy two years ago and befuddled the defenses of dozen universities as his backs scurricd about the playing field with the ball lost from sight.
 Now Lou is going in for more strength along with his deception and a wider variety Of plays and offensive weapons. And the strang- est part of it all is that Penn is looking upon one Of California's neishbors on the coast, the powerful Stanford array, for the model of at tack Young believes best suited to dispose of California along with all other rivals in the intercollegiate plSSkin wars of the fall.
 The time has come" Lou says, to couple strength and deception in the foundation Of Penn's attack. Last year my bunting attack was top heavy. This year I'm taking the Stanford of'ense as a model of variety, power. speed and deception.
 We have the men this season. we're going in for wider use of the lateral pass but with more diversity than Harvard uses. We'll have some great backs this fall. with Walter opekm, a short chunky fellow, filling tho place of the great Paul Skull. Opckun has every thing. Another exceptional fellow is Dick Gentle.
 Penn has lost few men. Scull, Johnny Shober and Paul Murphy are gone from the backfcld. The replacom"nts are fine but not quite as large as I'd like them. The absence of John Smith, the big tackle, and Leon Westgate, d fine center, shouldn't cause too much trouble in the line.
 Center is our big worry. An cratic pivot man can demoralize set Of good backs, mess up plays, and throw the entire attack out of gear by shooting the ball into the faces and chests of the runners in stead of their knees. We'll have to develop q center"

 Seeking his seventh title after failing to win since 1925, the inim- itable Tilden, at the top of the up- per half, drew a bye for the first round, and is scheduled to meet Donald Strachan of Philadelphia and Princeton in the second round.

 With Tilden and Austin in the up- per half and Lott and Farquharson in the lower, the early indications point toward international semi finals, but the path toward the pen ultimate matches will not be an easy one for the four favorites.

MAY GO BACK ID
 FORMER SYSTEM
Coach Cassidy May Have Hali-
 back Conduct Team on Field

Unless Coach George NJ. Cassidy
 changes his mind between now and the opening of the football season
 at the New Britain High school, it is
 probable that he will revert back to
 the system of five years ago when
 the halfback conducted the team
 At present he favors Billy Mangan
 for this duty, basing his plan on the
 fact that Mangan has had cXper-
 encc in handling q team while play
 ing with the second eleven during
 the time when he was ineligible to
 play.
 Coach Cassidy will be fortunate in that he will have an abundance
 of both backticld and line material
 Previous to every season the loyal
 fans have in mind q group of play CTS who will make up the personnel Of the team. The advance dope places Billy Ross at quarterback. Mike Grip and Billy Mangan at the haliback positions and Herby Carl son as fullback and punter. Prob ably one or more of these players may he replaced. Buddy" Stcinle, a Wcll-hUilt boy, has shown consider able ability in punting and has had the experience of one season on the squad. Frank Zaloslli and Andy Wcsoiy were also on the squad last year and if their weight is not serious handicap they may do dam age.
 The advance dope favors the SC lection Of Al Middleton, husky. for the tackle position left vacant by the graduation of John Szyman- ski, but Al played in the backfield and he, also, may figure in the upset of the bucket. His success in the line in the Hartford game last year seemed to place him as a good can didate to fill the difficult duties of tackle.
 It is expected that Captain Joe Potts will be handicapped for some time because of q toe injury rcceiv- i ed this summer but the guard posi- | ton will be open to him. Dumin !. who played center frequently last !. year, will be q likely candidate for i tue regular assignment. So far l Witty MiI<al@uskas is favored as the i guard, 'Penoke' LudwnOWicz as right tackle and Joe Bogdanski as right end. The two leading candi- 1 !ates for left end are Mike Bay i, lock who played that position with | he second team and Hormy i Schmarr, who was out for the team l turing the early part of last year. Two lincmen who are expected to | cattle for positions are Jackie White and Stanley NeVerdoski, both extremely heavy men. Farrell who 2as been conditioning himself by working on the roads all year, is another husky who will try for a place on the eleven.

Chicago, Sept. P)-Manager Joe Mccarthy has broken his silence regarding his Cubs chances of win ming the National league pennant. He thinks they are ''in."
 "I don't think there is any doubt about us mixing with those Athletics in the world series now, Mccarthy admitted after studying the past months record and the lu- ture schedule.
 The Labor Day games are over and we are out in front by 12 1-2 games. The boys came back in great style after the Pittsburgh slump and now have won four games in a row. That proves they have championship mettle and I think l can safely say we are in"

Associated Press Feature Servicc)
 Philadelphia, Sept. 4 R-"JOck- eys,' the boys in baseball who ride the opposition, usually are conspic- nous by their absence on Connoe Mack's ball clubs.
 But now there is no restraining such great Athletic stars as Grove, Simmons and Cochrane when, in their hour of victory, they meet and conquer the Yankees before whom they had bowed in bitter campaigns of past seasons.
 It would be inappropriate, per haps unfair to refer to these quiet, mild-mannercd masters of the dia- mond as "jockeys.'
 Yet, nowadays, whenever they tangle with the dejected Hugmcn there is considerable wisecracklng takes but one look to notice that Mcssrs. Grove. Simmons and Coch- rane are the key men in this par donable persecution.
 During 1926, 1927 and 1928 when the Athletics, a truly great team, fought gallantly but futilely against the unbeatable Yankee machine, these three Philadelphia stars rec oEnlZod no superiOrs in their own particular departments.
 Grove was out there throwing that hOrsehide so fast that it whiz- zed up to the plate looking more like pea than a baseball; Coch- rane, besides catching remarkable of games. was hitting like q cleanup hitter should, and Big Al simmons was pounding the ball at l dizzy clip.
 Defeat was bitter then but it made victory that much sweetel now. And you ought to see these ooys beam!
