GALLAGHER
GE is BIC
CHANCE

Marty Gallagher, Washington
heavyweight, is going in for big
league boxing. And he has made
the connections which assure
him of his shot.
One Of the most influential
ring authorities in the country
has taken shine to the Foggy
Bottom lad and has lined him
up for big things.
The notable in question is
fully aware that Marty has
sustained several losses in recent
starts. But, he maintains, Gal.
lagher will come into his own
under the proper handling anc
in an environment other than
Washington.
Brother Jimmy Gallagher,
who has handled Marty hereto
fore. has, announced that he will
go before the New York com
mission and surrender his con.
tract II it will help the boy along
and is prepared to do so on
short notice.
While not at liberty to
divulge the identity of his
future manager, FOggy Bot.
toms idol admits that he ex-
poets his friends to be agree
ably surprised when the In
formation is given out.
1t has also been learned that
he will probably box an unnamed
opponent in Boston around
November %. and that he may
also be placed on several Chicago
cards under Jack Dempsey's pro
motion.
Marty's bulldog courage and
general makeup has attracted
the higher-ups for several years
and Dempsey himself is great
admirer of WaShington's own.
Gallagher was a sparring part

Of the Tunney fights and inn

hts ability to take it and keep
coming Dack.
It has also been this quality
which has impressed despite his
setbacks in recent conflicts. Al
though apparently out of con-
dition for Walter Cobb in Balti-
more several months ago, the big
Trishman waded in and took
everything coming his way with
out flinching.
Marty himself admits that
he was out OF condition for
that fight and believes that
this falling, more than any
other, accounted for his sad
showing that night. +

Those who know claim that
Marty packs a terrific Wallop in
his right hand and is greatly
underestlmated. When in shape,
they claim, he is tough for any
body
1t has been no easy matter for
the young giant to keep in fettle
in Washington, a non-boxing
town, and it is thought that

pugilism will bring him around
and into the big money.

MANDELL BOWS

CHICAGO. Nov. 5.-Jimmy Nc
Larnin's rushing, smashing, ag.
greSSive attack is considered re-
sponsible today for his victory over
Sammy Mandell. master boxer and
lightweight champion of the
world.
The Six-pound advantage of Wei
terweight McLarnin was another
big factor in last nights battle
here. for McLarnin, fighting in q
catchweight bout, entered the ring
at l43A pounds, while Mandell
weighed a Scant 1874 pounds.
Although McLarnin may never
be welterweight champion, his de-
cisive victory over Mandell is
something that Jackie Fields, pres.
ent title holder, has failed to ac-
complish.

Eastern and Central games has
so impressed series observers that
they are willing to string along
with Hardell on practically any
proposition.
The Washington times., 1929-11-05

Today the Manual Trainers
are to take issue with an I'M
proved Western eleven in a game
which may definitely decide the
outcome Of the race.
II Western can pull the un-
expected and jolt Elmer Hardell'S
woodworking aggregation the
series will end in tie. Otherwise
the Techites will have only Busi-
ness to contend with in order to
remain unbeaten.
In other words when these red
hot rivals get together at the
Central Stadium. $3.50 o'clock. 1t
will be up to the Red and White
to either put over win or lose
out altogether.
A draw would still leave Nc
Kinley in an advantageous posi-
ton whereas q loss would place
Tech, Western, Central and East
ern on even terms and renew
interest in q series that has
seemed all Tech thus far.
Western is in splendid posi-
ton to deliver an upset. Not
only does Dan Ahern have all of
his old players in great shape
but new eligibles have strength
ened his machine by at least so
per cent.
In previous starts the West
Enders have been hard put
for backfield material but
today they will have starting
and reserve ball runners Of
the highest caliber.
Jim Draper and Ray Millard,
who have carried the brUnt OF
the backfield work to date, will
be ably supported by Bird, a
halfback, and Boyer, a fllllback
Both have shown to advantage in
recent Scrimmages and are ex-
pected to have an important
hand in their teams fate.
In reserve will be BroWnfield
and Payne, two first string
leathermen who will probably
be sent into the battle when the
going gets hot. Brownfield is
favoring bruised shoulder while
Payne is being saved for pinch
The line will introduce four

Were any other than a HardeIl

much speculation. AS it is the

TIL WITH
CENTRAL

A queer twist of fate will prob
ably rob Eastern High School Of
one of its most valuable football
players for the remainder Of the
season. Quarterback Charley Mil
lar, one of the best all around men
in the series, is the performer in
question.
Millar was inactive for the
greater part of the season in 1928
kbecause of a twisted left leg. From
an authoritative source it has been
learned that the cost Of approx
mately $1,000 was required to
straighten out this difficulty.
But the dead game athlete re-
fused to give up. He liked foot
ball and when Coach Mike Kelley
called out his candidates early
this fall there was Charley-ready

has obtained the use of American
League Park for this struggle
The respective records of the
Colonial Cubs and EmerSonlans
are expected to attract a large at.
tendance for this battle.
Nine newly eligible men were
uncovered by the StenographerS
Yesterday while two were dropped

LOTUS, Koontz,, Mills, Donnan,

Both will be given regular jobs.
Central will add several players
and stands to lose from one to
three. Western has already
gathered itself a new layout OF
talent while Tech remains at a
standstill.
The Washington times., 1929-11-05

Another player who may
be out for the season is
Eddie Cook, Western end,
who Is inactive with a bad
leg. He has been advised to
take no unnecessary risks
and will be on the sidelineS
when his team plays today.
The Washington times., 1929-11-05

Against Tech the young
ster's left leg failed to buckle
under him and he played one
Of the greatest games of his
career. This was particularly
true as the game moved on,
when, fighting mad, he
charged into Mckinley with
everything he had.
The Washington times., 1929-11-05

"a great ballplayer and no
doubt about it," Coach Elmer Har-
dell remarked after the game. LAS
anxious as was to have Tech win
A1 couldn't help but admire the
great game Millar put up!"
Then against Western he was
also going great guns when the
crash came. In general
scramble his right leg was twist
ed and he was carried from the
field. The left leg, which ne
had nursed so carefully, with
stood all of the punishment COM
ing it's way, but this unexpected
blow finished him for the day.
After the game Charley remarked
that he was going to get into
faction against Central at all
costs. And that still goes.
Much pesSimiSm surrounds the
comeback of the great Eastern
ball runner, however. Torn liga-
ments are calculated to handicap
him severely and it is generally
thought that he will have to
forego action altogether. This
will not necessarily end the foot
ball days of the fine backfielder,
J however. Although light in build
he would probably go great in
college and another year may
find him shining on the college
= gridiron as he has in his past
scholastic showings.

for backfield material but
today they will have starting

RECORDS FOR
OUTPUT BROKEN
Majestic Factory Turns Out
$500 Sets Daily.

Majestic shattered every known
record in radio in 1928.
The Grigsby- GrunoW Company
has performed miracle in produc-
ton by turning out $500 full console
sets a day. Had it not been for the
fact that they could not secure suffi-
Gent wire and raw materials, fac
tory officials state that they would
have been able to reach a produc-
ton of $500 a day.
Even this production Of $500 sets
day is probably twice as many
as any other producer ever has pro-
duced.
In spite of the fact that the Ma
iestic just appeared on the market
last June, an ever-increaSing de-
mand for Majestic sets has sW1mped
distributors and dealers ir every
part of the country. This override
mand began around the middle Of
August and has been increasing
every day since that date, until it
almost demoralized both dealers and
and distributors.
Looking ahead to 1929 there is
no question that Majestic starts the
new year firmly entrenched. We
venture to predict that next year
will completely eclipse this years
record on MajestiC-and that's 60
ing some.
The Grigsby- Grunow Company
are laying plans for a production
that will run between 100000 and
100000.

G. c. Mathews, general manager

announces that the Kirk Furniture
Company has been appointed an
authorized dealer of Majestic radio.
The Kirk company will carry COM
plete line of all models at both
stores, % East Washington and 81

George Frank Of the Kirk COM
pany says, After several months of
careful consideration, we have de
cided on Majestic radio as one of
the featured lines in our new and
enlarged radio department. Ma
iestic is offering many improve
mentS and beautiful cabinet that
will fit the furnishings of practically
any home. One Of the chief reasons
for the success of Majestic is the
model up-to-date cabinet plant"
THE two styles of cabinets we're
designed and fully decided upon be-
fore the equipment for making them
was installed. This was done in
stead of setting up woodworking
machinery and then casting about
for a suitable cabinet design. The
result Of such plan is that where the
average furniture factory has 25 to
so per cent of its machinery idle
because it is used only on certain
jobs, every machine in the Grigsby-
GrunoW plant is busy all the time.
All rough operations are eliminated,
a great advantage in cutting out
waste, thus passing the saving to
the purchaser.

trail Theme.
NOTED STARS WILL AID
Story viii Be Told in De-
IightfuI Manner by
'Redhead Master

The Majestic hour, TO be heard
over the Columbia Droadcastilg
system Sunday night at O'Clock,
will present a feature not new N
theme, but entirely ntw in reat-
ment. Wendell Hall, Majestic's new
program director, has taken into
consideration the love ii young and
old for dancing and has worked
out feature he calls The Dance.
The dance, as an expression OF
human happiness, Of good times in
the home, of entertaining moments
with loved ones and friends, as a
popular diversion and as a social in
Stitution. will be Halls theme for a
delightful hour OF variety, color and
harmony in action. The continuity
Will be a story told in that unique
and intimate manner which has
made the Red Headed Music
Maker famous as one of the best in
the realm of radio entertainers.
Famous Singers Assist
Assisted unsteady by famous
singers and Arold Johnson's Ma
jeStic orchestra, the tale will include
illustrations of the happiest forms
of the dance, variations from the
stately minuet TO the hilarious dou-
bic shuttle.
Feet are certain to start tapping
when a genuine piccaninny from the
old south steps it off on a miniature
stage placed before the c. B. S.
microphone.
Above all, it is promised that this
presentation of The Dance" will
not be a dry and academic descrip-
ton of humanity's most expressive
pastime, but a joyous sixty minutes
that has sprung from Wendell
Halls spontaneous sense of the pic
tureSque.
The Majestic Theater of the Air
will that night sparkle with an orig
lnal idea colored by the chuckling
loviality of one of the country's best
known radio entertainers.
Soprano on Program
Miss Hazel Huntington, coloratura
soprano, with her songs, will be an
other added feature of this tour
that promises so much.
Other artists who have appeared
o nthe Majestic Theater of the Air
programs at different times in the
past are Moran and Mack, Belle
Baker and Walter Kelly, the "Vir-
ginia Judge"
