"A. P. Feature Service)

NEW YORK. April 24.-If few good fights is what the boxing game needs, it may be in a healthy con- dition before the summer is over.
 Three major championships prob ably will be decided within the next few months and all of the battles stand out as exceptionally promis- ing.
 Sammy Mandell defends his lightweight crown in May meet ing with Al Singer; Jack Sharkey and Max Schmeling fight in June for first claim on the heavyweight throne, and Jackie Fields either will accept a battle with Jimmy McLarnin with Jackie's welter- weight title at stake or will have to do some tall explaining to the boxing powers.
 At this stage of the program the Mandell- Singer and Fields-McLar- min scraps seem to be creating more interest in New York that the Schmeling -Sharkey thing. Eight months ago this one heavyweight bout stood out as the most attrac- tive project since Jack Dempsey quit. What happened to Sharkey at Miami seems to have removed some of the attractive features of the engagement, so the boxing crit ics say.
 It wouldn't surprise the metro politan experts if the challena CTS, seeking to dethrone Fields and Mandell, went into the ring as the favorites.
 McLarnin, who has few equals as a perfect functioning fighting nla- chine, is backed by convincing string of victories and has proved himself to be 2 knockout puncher. He should have psychological ad- vantage over Fields because Jimmy stopped Jackie in two rounds back in 1925 when they were fighting as featherweights.
 Singer has youth, speed and punching ability to match Man delrs greater ring experience. Sam my is one of the smartest men to top the lightweight division but his recent fights indicate that his legs are slowing up. This would throw a tremendous burden on that noted Mandell left as his main weapon to carry him through the champion ship route of Is rounds.

DANISH AUTHORS MAY
 LOSE PUBLIC BOUNTY

COPENHAGEN, April 24.-An au- ] thor's victory in the Danish su- preme5 court prohibiting libraries from circulating his book has re- suited in a threat by the govern ment to withdraw the annual boun- ty paid to Danish authors.
 Peter Freucnen, Danish ex- plorer, recently published book of his travels with a note on the flyleaf forbidding the lending of the book.
 Some libraries protested, but oth- CTS disregarded the note and put the volume in circulation. Freu- chen brought suit and won
 The Minister of Education then indicated that if many more au- thors took this method of forcing readers to buy their books, all writers would be removed from the bounty list. The list contains the names of practically all important Danish writers. The bounty is an annual payment of from S135 to $135o.

openings, forced considerable re- vision of the pennant prospects. Up until he was hurt, Grimes was the most potent individual factor In the Pirates battle for 1929 leadership and the most effective righthander in either league. By no stretch of the imagination can Percy Lee Jones be considered an adequate replacement for Grimes, granting the latter to be in good health and condition
 Grimes, Pie Traynor and Lloyd Waner were the Big Three so far as the Pirates were concerned last year. With the big right-hander gone and the other two on the cas- ualty list for the time being, Pitts burgh's prospects reflect no rosy hues.
 It will take more than Grimes to make a pennant contender out of the Braves, but at least it indi- cases how seriously the Boston club has gone about the big job of dig ging itself out of the depths. When he is right, Grimes will win a lot of ball games for any club in any league.

If it wasn't for the well known fact that the American professional golfers, no matter how often they may have taken 1t on the chin from him, have never yet ducked a chance to try conclusions with Bobby Jones, suspicion might be aroused by their almost unanimous withdrawal from a journey abroad with the Atlanta amateur this spring for the British Open Cham pionship
 Horton Smith and Leo Diegel will join Jones at Hoylake for the climax of the British campaign, but Walter Hagen, Johnny Farrell and Gene Sarazen, among others, have decided that further sea voy- ages will not agree with them this year. Hagen, it seems, will be quite satisfied with making the trip back from Australia with Joe Kirk wood. Farrell and Sarazen are going into vaudeville for few short turns and eneores
 Hagen, Farrell and Sarazen have dominated the field in the British Open for the 'past two years, with Hagen leading the field each time. Farrell was runner-up last year and Sarazen in 1928. Leo Diegel had great chance to crash through last year, leading at the halfway mark with 14O, but Lar ruping Leo blew up on the third round.
 "Jones is playing greater golf than ever Johnny Farrell told me on his return from winter in the the South, where the great Geor- gian broke even in two tussels with the professional stars. Bobby is hitting his mashie niblick shots surer than I have ever seen him. If there has ever been a weakness in his game, it was with this club, but he seems to have it under con- trol now"
 Farrell regrets his inability to go abroad again as well as that of Hagen, because, he said, "The Haig { always seems to be at his best abroad and would give Jones a great contest"
 "In England now, think Hagen is eve nmore popular than he is at home" added Johnny. He draws the crowds and has always given a good show. And he seems to play better golf over there than at home.''

Just pair of expressive hands can make one famous in pictures. If Zasu Pitts had none of her other droll mannorisms, the world of ex- pression she can put in her hands, would place her among the foremost pantomimists on the screen.
 Although she does not play the usual maid part in This Thing Called Love- a Pathe dialogue po- duction co-featuring Edmund Lowe and Constance Bennett, her express sive hands and droll manner lose nothing Of their values because of the rich evening gowns and lacy ncgligeos she displays.
 In this picture, now playing at the Embassy theatcr, she interprets the role Of the jealous wife who has discovered that her husband has purchased a dress for another woman, of course she makes it in teresting for her offending husband and the woman of the ease

 FROM CHURCHMAN'S CAR
Officer Doty Victim of Accessory Crook While Auto Is Parked
 in His Yard.

Automobile accessory thieves are no respecters of persons, it would seem from one theft reported over the weekend. Officer David Doty parked his automobile in his yard at G3S West Main street Saturday night and when he went to start it yesterday he was unable to do so. He tried to crank it. thinking the battery was low, but that did not work, so he decided to look under the seat for loose connection. only to find yawning space where the battery had been.
 William TleisCher of Osgood ave- nuc complained that while his car was parked on Myrtle street Satur- day night someone stole his spare tire and left a flat one in it's stead.
 Katherine Quinlan of Southington complained to Sergeant King yes terday that a new wheel and tire were stolen off her car while it was parked on Walnut street between 3 and 10 o'clock Saturday night.

CONFERENCE ID BE
 HELD ON TAXATION
French Plan Will Be Discussed
 -BuSiDesS Heads Kick

Paris, March IT P)-France and the United States, it was learned to- day, will engage in a series of con ferences over the whole question of the taxation of foreigners and for eign companies as soon as data have been prepared by the respective treasufy departments.
 The conferences will be carried on in Paris between representatives of the American embassy and the for 2ign office and it is considered like ly that special expert from the American treasury department will come from Washington as observer.
 The conferences will follow a long series of protests by the embassy here against the French system of double taxation on American com- panies operating in France either as agents for firms in the United States as subsidiary corporations or as in dependent companies with capital Tn America.
 This system, while on the statute books for a long time, has only been enforced against American companies during the last two years. American business men say it has created such a situation that humber of corporations have been on the point of liquidating their business here and abandoning the French field.

of a new comedian. For besides the whimsical Haines tracks of laugh making there is a transition and he grows up from the irreprcssible boy to a man, seasoned by responsibility and struggle.
 The picture picks Haincs up as he leaves college with q diploma. and shows how the University of Hard Knocks changes the hero from an inexperienced boy 10 a man facing the world of work. struggle and competition. It is an echo of the experience of every youth in the land crossing the threshold from boyhood to manhood.
 Leila Hyams, who played oppo- site the star in Alias Jimmy Nalen- tine" appears as the heroine of the new picture, and Francis K Bush- man, Jr.. plays the villain as the of ! flee manager. Haines' parents arc played in exec cptionally fine charac- ter work by William V.
