The burly Basque, a most difficult

could hit him hard and clcanly
enough to halt him more than mo-
nentarily. Both are in perfect on
dition after a full month OF work IN
open-air training camps. Only IN
height and age will there be any
marked difference in their physical
proportions. Schmellng has trained to
enter the ring at 1877 pounds, and
Pauline at 100. The weighing in was
scheduled at ? p. m. at the Yankee
stadium.
The winner of tonight's fracas, first
of the major outdoor shows. is scned-

l. is reercttable indeed that a
congregation which has been alert
enough to construct a good house of
" orshjp is unable 10 continue the
financial load and is forced TO sell
the building. This has been the cx-
perience of the Emmanuel Gospel
church on Franklin square, erected
after the war at cost Of $4,000,
exclusive Of tie lot. Being a COM
paratiyeIy small congregation. the
burden has been heavy; but it is
noted that despite the financial
handbags the congregation last year
gave $500 TO missions. This. it must
be conceded, is quite a remarkable
achievement under the circum-
stances.
Tile desire 10 interest the city in
purchase of the building is natural.
but it must be conceded after little
study that an auditorium seating
only 800 people would not be large
enough for such purpose. Especial
iy is this possibility dim when it is
consde that the high school
auditorium. which will be able TO
function as civic auditorium when
such one is needed, will scat more
than 1000.
