The shift in the tide toward
Singer appears unjustified by the
past records OF the ~gladiators. al
though it is generally admitted that
Mandell, after eleven years OF war
fare, has begun to show signs Of
wear. He reached his peak in whip
ping husky jimmy McLarnin IN
the Polo Grounds two years ago
but since then the clouting Celt
twice has belabored the champion
in overweight matches. Sammy had
a desperate time edging out the
decision over Tony Canzoneri n
his last tile defense in Chicago
almost a year ago.
The increasing years have added
70 the difficulty Mandell always
experienced in making the class
limit Of l35 pounds. Singer. a gen.
uine lightweight, has had no trou-
bic holding his fall strength at
l34 pounds.

NEW YORK, July l7-R]- The
purses Of the fight faithful i led
today and Piled up q pot Of gold
for Sammy Mandell and Young Al
Singer to fight for tonight In the
ring at the Yankee stadium.
Last minute predictions we're for
a 100000 gate. This will be Man
dells second defense Of his light
weight title here in two years.
Some money appeared IN the
martS Of chance at odds OF 2 TO ]
on the sleek challenger. II the
same odds prevail at ring time.
Singer will be the shortest priced
challenger since Pancho villa
knocked out the aged Jimmy Wilde
for the flyweight crown back In the
days when fouls were something to
be frowned upon.
BY special ruling OF the New
York State boxing solons, there
can be no foul tonight. Both the
champion and the challenger have
agreed to equip themselves with
such protective devices as they con-
slider will render them immune TO
low blows. If either winds up On
the floor he will have to look for
sympathy in the voice of the referee,
tOlling off the count Of ten.

Americas Problem
II should never BE- forgotten that
our problem In America l. still very
largely one OF temperance and o.
voluntary action. The fact : that
voluntary abstinence at the pres
ent time has an enhanced value
because II Is q phase or good citi-
zenship and obedience to the law

There are. or course. certain cir
cumstances under which disobedi-
ence TO law may become a valu-
able or even q dutitul course. But
il would seem that no conscientious
duty could attach TO the drinking
Of Intoxicating liquor.
The mar who disobeys the pro-
hibitory law is very much in the
same category as the mar who dis
obeys the tariff law or some other
law OF the land concerning which
he might say that what 1t forbids
is not something inherently wrong.
There are many who feel that our
prohibitorv laws will never be en-
tirely effective until q more Tgor-
GUS campaign BY precept and ex-
ample Is carried on in behalf OF
voluntary abstinence and obedience
TO the law.
The principles which apply 70
