SINGER VS. MCLARNIN
Irish Battler May Be Little Better Than An Even Choice Against the Champion Tomorrow.

New York, Sept. 10 R-Their in- tensive preparations completed, Al Singer and Jimmy McLarnin turned their thoughts toward their ten round bout at Yankee stadium to- morrow night.
 A decisive swing in sentiment to- ward Singer caused the betting odds to drop from 2 to 1 to ' to with McLarnin still on the long end. Pros poets were the Irish battler from Vancouver would be only d little bet ter than an even choice against the lightweight champion at ring time.
 Singers 1855 pound crown will not be at stake and perhaps that is the explanation for the failure of the bout to attract the public interest that had been anticipated by Madi- son Square Garden officials.
 Advices from Singers camp indi- cated the lightweight champion would scale about 136 pounds but some experts took leave to doubt it.. The Bronx idol has sealed around 135 and 134 for virtually all of his important fights in recent months and may be no heavier for McLar- min. The Vancouver dynamiter prob ably will scale about Al, a pound under the 142-limit for which the contracts call.

TOMBS DISCOVERED
 IN MADRID SUBURB
Skeletons Apparently Those Of
 Roman Citizens

Madrid, Sept. 10 Pl-An archaeo- logical discovery which has attract cd intense interest throughout Spain was being investigated today in the Madrid suburb of Las Carolinas.
 Six tonbs containing several skel- etons, apparently those of Roman citizens. the remains of Roman villa. with still more ancient re- mains underneath. have been uncov- cred in 8 gravel pit. The more an cient relics still remain unclassified, but some observers believed they represented a prehistoric settlement.
 Coming just after Ambassador Dawes tour of Spanish points Of archaeological interest. the discov- cry has received extraordinary pub licity.
 Since ancient remains. of one kind or another, are being dug up con- stantly, the newspaper Fl Debate has proposed that Madrid declare itself the capital of'the prehistoric world" and organize an exhibition of prehistoric museum exhibits.
 The paper proposed adequate ap- propriations for thorough scientific excavations around Madrid. Many believe that rich archaeological ma terial, both Roman and prehistoric, exists in this vicinity. They think 1t possible that fossils dating back 10 the earliest stone age, can be found.

Philadelphia, Sept. 10 'P,-Frank Yablonski, University of Pennsyl- vania guard, will not be kept from the game this year simply because he is too near-sighted to see the plays.
 A new type of helmet, combining the unusual feature of a protective mask for optical lenses, has been designed for him. The idea was Coach Lud Wrays.
 The special helmet became a ne- cessity, Coach Wray said, when it was discovered that the rugged guard could not play his best game unless he wore thick glasses.
 The new mask is regular head gear in most ways, but unusual in that leather, pressed in the shape of the face, has been stripped across the front to cover the cheek bones and bridge of the nose.
 Room has been left for inset eye outlets. Into these outlets it is pos sible to screw circular optical lenses of the same type used by Yablonski in his regular glasses.
 The leather protrudes further than the glass, SO it is almost impossible for them to break
 In case there should be an acci- dent and one of the glasses break, Yablonski will be able to remove the broken lens and replace it immedi- ately with new one.

 His shortstop play brought the Crax a half a dozen offers. His sale to Chicago netted the biggest check the Atlanta club ever has received for a player.
 It topped the s1s,5oo received for Mule Haas by several thousand dol lars, officially announced.
 Luke will have S5.000 of this price in his bank account when he reports to Donie Bush at the end of the Southern season.
 A fast, rangy youngster, Appling's batting average has hovered around 1925 all season. He's been one of the best fielding shortstops in the Southern and Johnny Dobbs, Allan ta manager who piloted New Orleans when Cleveland took Joe Sewell from the Pelicans, says that Luke's a bet ter prospect than Joey was.
 Playing for Oglethorpe this spring, before turning pro, Appling hit four homers in a game against Mercer.

TORONTO IS GUT
 OF LEAGUE RACE
Three COntendefS Left in Inter-
 national Loop Scramble

By the Associated Press.
 The list of contenders, actual and mathematical, for the International league pennant had dwindled from four to three today with Toronto abandoning the fight to Rochester, Baltimore and Montreal.
 Toronto won from Montreal yes- terday, to l, but lost its last math- ematical chance to win the pennant when Rochester trounced Buffalo, 12 to 6. Toronto now is 131a games behind first place with only 13 games to play and thus cannot gain tie even should the Leafs win all their remaining games while Rochester loses all of it's remaining 12 con- tests. Montreal's Royals also are in precarious condition so far as pen nant hopes go for they now are Il k games behind first place with II games to play. The best the Royals can do now is to tie by winning II straight games while Rochester loses 12. The Baltimore Orioles. holding second place, are not much better off for the Redwings lead them by seven and one half games with 1; games still on Baltimore's card. Ever should the Orioles win all their re. maining games, Rochester still could win the pennant by capturing six o1 their last 12 games.
 Rochester made full use of 10 hits and eight bases on balls to swamp Buffalo yesterday even though the Redwings were outhit, l 5 to 10. The leaders scored six runs in the second inning on five hits and four in the eighth on one safety to pile up a winning advantage. Grant went the route for the Redwings.
 Baltimore suffered an 11-2 beating at the hands of the Newark Bears who appear to have clinched fifth place in the standings. Jim Faulk- ner gave the Orioles only seven hits while the Bears clouted four pitch CTS for 19 safeties.
 Sam Gibson's great pitching was the chief factor in Toronto's close victory over Montreal. Gibson per mitted only five hits, struck ou, seven and would have had a shutout had not Shortstop Cote let loose with wild throw in the eighth in- ming. 300 fans saw the game. In duel of tail-enders, Reading ! frightened it's grip on seventh place by defeating Jersey City, 7-S, in a night game at Reading. Herman kept Jersey Cfty's nine hits we'll scat tered.

CUBS APPEAR 0N
 VERGE 0F SLUMP
Pitching Staff Worn Out From
 National Struggle

New York, Sept. 10 UP)-With the National League pennant hang ing in the balance, the four contend CTS entered the second stage of their crucial series today, the Cubs and Robins playing at Ebbets Field and the Cardinals and Giants battling at the Polo Grounds.
 Victories for the Robins an6 Giants in the opening games yes. terday left the Cubs 21a games ahead of the Cardinals and Robins, virtually tie for second place. and 8 games ahead of the fourth place Giants.
 If the Robins and Giants win again today, the two eastern con- tenders will hold the balance of power in the race. The Cubs col lapse seems to be genuine. as they have dropped seven out of their last ten games and their pitching staff appears worn out from the hard struggle to the top.
 With their ace, Pat Malone, beat en 80 in the opening game yester- day, the Cubs were hard up for a starting pitcher today. Manager Joe Mccarthy had his choice be- tween Charley Root and Bud Teach out. both of whom have faltered badly of late.
 As for Brooklyn, Manager Wilbert Robinson planned to shoot Adolfo I.uque at the Cubs, and the betting was z to 5 that the canny Cuban would win his game. For tomorrow Robbie has Dazzy Vance, who has been treated none to kindly by the Cubs this season but who seems a better bet than any pitcher Chicago can send to the mound.
 Thanks to the wise hurling of Clarence Mitchell, 3s year old south- paw who was cast off by the Cards earlier in the year. the Giants have moved back into dangerous posi- ton. Mitchell, last of the southpaw spit-ball pitchers. held the Cards to I hits and allowed but two men to reach second as he pitched the Giants to o-1 victory, breaking St. Louis 7-game winning streak.
 Although Rurleigh Grimes was beaten yesterday, Manager Gabby Street was better off for pitchers today than Dave Bancroft, acting manager of the Giants. Street had Bill Hallahan and Sylvester Johnson ready for mound duty, while Ban-

 John J. McGraw, Giants leader who signed year contract last week, watched yesterdays game from the clubhouse window in cen ter field. Bancroft, who has been managing the Giants for almost two months, was banished for protesting decisions. and the Giants finished the game under the command of Irish Meusel. former outfiflder.
 Manager Joe Mccarthy of the Cubs refuses to concede that his team has given up the battle.
 T won't say the Cubs will win the pennant." he said, but I'll say that they'll fight to the very last ditch. There is no truth to the rumors that the Cubs are fighting among themselves. My confidence in the Cubs is as strong as ever"

We suppose that the owners Of the Stanley Arena are, as it were, holding to the old adage that "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush" Uncertainty as to the returns on their hall from sports during the next winter and the fact that they have leased their place at satisfactory terms with the money certain reality, have led them to allow the arena to be con- verted into golf course.

mode by many months. Perhaps they
were hoping some contagion of that
priceless TT for which this little Holly
wood "red-hot" has been publiciZed so
widely would attach itself to them.
Proprietress of gulp-and- grab
counter-which is one of Hollywood
ways of designating quick-lunch joint
near the studio bought a black velvet
gown worn by Billie Dove.
A studio electrician who is one of her
steady customers tipped her off to the
big bargain, and she was there to battle
for it with $12 bid. although the
wardrobe girl, sizing her herculean fig
ure, warned her it would be total loss
to her.
you've no idea what I can do with
it, dearies," she protested, stretching the
slim garment across her buxom proper
tons. Il used to be a SeamStreSS. But
it is really the only flrst-clasS evening
gown I've had in years. And what a
figure I'll make in my own social set!"
And she proudly bore it of with a
triumphant smile on her face.
Overstuffed ladies of 40 and up
seemed to be bent on the somewhat
shopworn grandeur of discarded neg
liges. They trailed the passe laces and
limp pastel chiffonS about with little
chirps of satisfaction.
Many a suppressed desire will be
realized there-dreamS of a luxury
never to be attained and not marred
now by the fact that it is a trifie shop

HOLLYWOOD, April IS (N.A.N.A).-
The sudden shift in styles from daring
to dignity brought about one OF the
most amusing sights Hollywood has seen
these many years.
Gowns once worn by movie stars ana
now antiquated because of this complete
conversion of the feminine element to
waist lines and long frocks were auc-
toned off Saturday at one Of the stu
dos at the direction of Hal Wallis, an
executive. Clothes aggregating more
than S25, 100000 in value brought about
81 500 at the sale.
But the most interesting thing about
the proceeding was a study OF the vary
ing types who clamored to own gown
once worn by Billie Dove, Dorothy
Mackail, Alice White, Marilyn Miller,
Lila Lee or Loretta Young.
In the past no star ever wore frock
twice. But the gowns designed at ire
mendous cost were saved by the studios
and made over for minor actresses to
wear in later pictures. Eventually they
reached the stage where they were
handed out to extras.
But some 200 gowns turned onto the
auction block were beyond all this.
They we're knee length and often back
less. They had been designed for the
most 1.-THE beauties the world knows,
and they were bought largely by heavy
hipped ladies with work-roughened
hands or by high-school girls.
The school contingent fought for
Alice Whites dresses and paid $3.50 for
them, although they are behind the
