LIT TIE LIKES
LATERAL PASS

NEW YORK. Oct. 21.-There
may be nothing new under the
sun, but Lou Little, Columbia's
football coach, is inclined to
quarrel with that ancient axiom.
Little thinks that one play which
| he has introduced in the ColuIn-
bia attack this fall is a brand
new wrinkle in football strategy.
The play in question is lateral
pass made after the ball-carrier
has passed beyond the line Of
scrimmage. This play has been
seen before on the gridiron, but
not as a deliberately planned
weapon Of attack. When such a
play has been used before, IL was
an impromptu affair, invented on
the spur of the moment by a
Quick-witted pair Of halfbackS. In
fact, this trick was worked on
the Columbia team itself during
the Pennsylvania game at Baker
Field last November, when a
Quaker hafback, about to be
tackled down the field, flipped
the ball backward to a team
mate, who ran for a touchdown.
In the case Of Columbia
this year, however, this type
of lateral pass is an integral
part Of the OffenSe. Despite
Harvard'S success with the
lateral pass behind the line
Of Scrimmage, Little believes
that by far the most effective
way to use this weapon is
after the runner has ad-
vanced beyond the line Of
Scrimmage.
In this play two halfbacks are
sent down the field, one carrying
the ball and the other following
him, behind and on the outside.
II the ball carrier gets free and
sees an open road to the goal
line he is under no compulSion
to chuck the ball to his mate.
However, if his way is blocked he
is supposed to get rid of the So
called pigskin, timing the play
SO as to make the pass while he
is being tackled. If his forward
progress has not been stopped, it
is a legal play.
Little favorS this sort Of lateral
pass over that behind the line
Of Scrimmage for several reasons.
For one thing, If the pass is
intercepted there is less danger
OF a disastrous rally by the enemy
In the Harvard lateral pass,
the entire team which makes
the pass Is behind the man
who intercepted, whereas In
Titles variation the intercep-
tiOn would take place down
the field with many tackIers
between the intercepter and
the goal line.
Little predicts that his new
form Of lateral pass will be
widely used in football before the
season is over. He has had great
success with it in early games
and believes it will give trouble
to Williams, Cornell, Colgate,
Brown and Syracuse, Columbia's
future opponents.

DISPUTE Of
HEAV|ES

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-Jack
Sharkey, the Boston pugilist, is
eager to fight Max Schmeling,
w. L. ("Young") Stribling, or any
body else, to definitely settle the
question of who is the worlds
greatest boxer.
Sharkey wants to cooperate
with the New York State athletic
commission, the press, and the
public Gin restoring the heavy
weight boxing division to the
standing it formerly held"
Such was the gist Of q tele-
gram received by the New
York athletic commission to-
day from Sharkey's manager,
John F. Buckley, dated ia
maica Plain, Mass.
Buckley took a shot or two at
Schmeling in his telegram to the
commission. He wired:
"Sharkey, acting on the
suggestion of your commits
sion, agreed to meet SchmeI-
ing, German heavyweight, in
a return contest. Schmeling's
refusal to sign to box Sharkey
again proves he knows his
master. He realizes Sharkey
can knock him out. Sharkey
is willing to post any forfeit
you name to meet Schmeling
in New York State.
"Sharkey is also willing to
defend his title as American
heavyweight champion in New
York against young Stribling.
He will follow any program Of
bouts your commission may
decide on to determine who
has the right to the heavy.
weight throne.
1.-THE press and the public today
does not look to Schmeling as a
champion, as Schmeling, as your
commission agreed, was badly
beaten by Sharkey when the un-
fortunate ending of the bout oc.
CURED. Sharkey is prepared to 60

doom called an unfinished con-
test,' but Schmeling merely sulks

The unfortunate ending" Buck.
ley referred to was a low left hook
which fouled Schmeling and gave
him the championship.

 After Father Pashkiewych had performed the last mass yesterday. shortly before noon members Of the congregation filled the basement of the church and q few minutes later the meeting was started by Nikifor Nostin, chairman of the board Of trustees
 Members of the board are said to have told the congregation that the officers of the board were called before the grand jury and there for the first time they learned that some 2,700 gallons of sacranental wine were withdrawn for their church, they said.
 The officers denied that such an amount was consumed during the year and produced proof that only s25 from the church funds vas paid for the wine, they said. Members of the congregation voiced their opin- ions on the action that should be taken. stating that the pastors work had met with satisfaction by the whole congregation and he in every way had proved suitable for the pas torate. but the perjury charge and his connections with the wine with drawals were unbecoming to a pas tor and his resignation must be de- manded, it as said.
 Applications for new pastor will be received from now until August 1 and in order to secure the m ost capable pastor an advertisement will be placed in a Ukrainian news paper. The pastorate includes a sal ary of more than s100 a month and practically all other expenses are paid by the parish. Efforts will be made to secure pastor who will remain here for at least several years. The first pastor. whom Father Pashkiewych succeeded, re- mained in this city only for few months.

 The finding by Judge Foster con tains many quotations from author ities on the subject of zonlng and mandamus. In part. if declares'
 The relator in its statement Of facts in brief bases its argument up- on statement clearly fallacious. It says. The property which the pe- titioner purchased was zoned as ln- dustrial. the lowest on scale of seven zones, requiring the least num- ber of restrictions Why the low est? Each zone or district is diff ferent from the others, but in what way Is one lower than another? Is 1t not obvious that a district occupied by factories built close together and containing infammable materil would be more susceptible 10 con- fagration than a district occupied by residences far apart and might require more strict provisions. Yet the relator argues that the indus trial zone is lower than the resi- dence zone. It is neither lower nor higher. It is different But 1t might be argued that there is no more req son for having a filling station far ther from q church, etc, in an in dustrial zone than in business B zone.
 There might be very good req sons. Such institutions in New Brit ain might be more thickly populated or attended by more people in in dustrial zones than in business B zones.

Mlynarski, 4s, Dies of Hemorrhage' at Mitchell Street Home - Temperature of no Re- corded Saturday - Boy Taken III in Park.

Although there was some question as to how the weekend compared with similar periods in the city's history, there remains no doubt but that New Britain people. those few who did not take to the woods or the shore, sweltered and perspired in a summer heat that went we'll over 100 degrees.
 While thermometers disagree on a few points and there was varia- tion in temperature in different DOT tions of the city, there has been lit- tie change since Saturday, when the mercury scared almost as high as it is wont to go. On Shuttle Meadow avenue Saturday afternoon the tetn- perature went as high as no. Yes terday at fire headquarters it was at 104. On the roof of the Herald building today an accurate ther- mometer registered 1o1 early in the afternoon. These temperatures were taken in the sun.
 Most New Britainites who had cars or friends who had cars or who had the prie>, of trolley or bus fare spent as much as possible of their spare time in the parks or at the shore.
 Traffic on the highways during the hottest part of the day yesterday was rot as heavy as it has been on other Sundays but parking space at shore resorts was at a premium. At Ocean Beach near New London it was impossible early yesterday aft ernoon to find a parking place on any street within a mile of the beach.
 Ponds and Pools Crowded
 Other shore resorts were crowd ed. Ice cream and soft drink stands did heavy business. At Bat terson park in Pennington, where many New Britain people go for bathing, there were literally thou stands during the day.
 Stay at homes, without the means or inclination to travel any great distance, tiocked to the parks and shady spots were at premium.

Readsboro. Vt, July 21 P>-Hub- bard D. Oakes is dead at his home here, and many who never heard of him in life will find in his pass ing something for contemplation. For Oakes saw more than a century Of springtmes paint the countryside with lush greenery and a like span of winters frost the Vermont hills with snow.
 He was born in Stamford, 1o5 years ago. and the simple, rural life he led never caused him to re- side more than IS miles from his birthplace. Throughout the past 75 years the same roof sheltered him.
 Oakes was born in a log cabin. Ir his youth he helped his father burn charcoal for use in smelting iron at
