BLAKE SHINES
AS CUBS COP

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-Some $1,000
fans braved a gloomy afternoon
to see Fred Blake and Chicago's
Cubs overthrow the White Sox
and even the current city series
here yesterday. The. score was
4 to 2.
Blake confined the enemy to
three hits and one run for eight
periods. Then, with the game
well under control, he Slackened
a bit and Donnie Bush's men
gathered two safe socks and an.
other tally.
Pat Caraway was puzzle until
the eighth when two singles and
a home run by Hazen Cuyler
coined three runs and definitely
settled the outcome.

.BARTUSH WINS
OVER WILSON

They're rugged and fast and
clever, also exceedingly good, are
both DR.. Ralph Wilson and Billy
Bartush, so it was little wonder
that their finish wrestling bout
provided one Of the best matches
seen in the Washington Audi
torium this year. In the end Bar
tush's 10-pound weight advantage
and greater strength told and the
former masked marvel pinned his
cat-like foe in Al minutes with a
series Of body slams.
The match was a repetition Of
their draw Of a week ago until
just before the end. Practically
every hold known to the grap-
pling art was employed with first
one and then the other holding
the advantage. Toe hold, ham
merlocks, wrist locks. flying mares,
crotch splits, in fact, the whole
repertoire was used.
The preliminaries were only
$3.50, If that. Mike Roano, al
though appearing to be hopelessly
outclassed by Bamka Zalesiak,
won the decision over the latter
by a body slam. Zalesiak had it
all over Mike in all departments,
and seemed to be carrying" the
italian. Jack Taylor slammed
Billy Mideekoff to the mat in jig
time; Tiny Roebuck flattened the
actually tiny Oscar Nugern in IL
minutes, and Tom Clayton and
Pete Gravis went is minutes to
q draw.

ADAMS STAYS
WITH GRAW
LEADERS

A few weeks ago Apprentice
Z Jockey Albert Adams startled the
turf world when, at Marlboro, he
= rode nine winners in a row, set
ting q new world record.
The kids feat became all the
more notable, as he had ridden
his first mount in competition
only this past summer. He began
his racing career at Dufferin
Park, in Canada.
Fans at Marlboro and horse
men were split into two
camps rs q result Of the
youths performances.
One faction contended he was
only an ordinary rider and that
he was plotting 'hand-picked"
mounts. The other clan insisted
that he had an uncanny ability
to help q horse.
~ And, so, the argument went on.
The detractors usually ended their
observations with:
Z ''Wait until he gets on the
- mile tracks and clashes with
real, high.class Jockeys"
For Albert, although not setting
the whirlwind pace at Havre de
!. Grace that he cut out on the half
mile tracks, is more than holding
his own with the big gathering OF
.fiderS, who are ever so much
more experienced.
Only Eddie Waters, r. Leisch-
: man, Sonny Workman, and
frankie Coltiletti are ahead Of
him. Waters is leading with nine
winners. LeiSchman has brought
eight under the wire, while Col
.tiletti and Workman have each
ridden six. Adams has driven
ahom, five winners.

Which is why Broadway and the premiere

Harriet was sent to New York in charge of

the stage and went out with a vaudeville act.
1t so happened that on the same bill were the
Duncan Sisters. Miss Hector gives them credit
for paving the way to her big New York

The tides of life recede, but they roll
in again. While an industry was muted
as one of its great men was laid to
rest, the small daughter of the John
Barrymores was being given the name
she will carry through life.
Dolores Ethel Mae Barrymore was
christened by Mgr. Mccarthy at PaSa-
dena. Lionel Barrymore was her god
father. But her godmother, Ethel
Colt. daughter of Ethel Barrymore, was
on the East Coast and could not be
present.
Dolores Costello Barrymore, very
dimpling and plump and proud, frankly
declares that her interest in the screen
is over. She would rather play the role
of mother to baby Barrymore than have
the most priceless parts the cinema pro-
fession could create.
Neither pleadings nor imprecations on

Rogers claimed that he took inven-
tory of the hours he spent, an unwill-
ing victim, at the telephone, and often
they outnumbered the hours he spent
in bed.
So it is that the most pretentious
estate in these parts is not wired for
communication with the outside world.
The cowboy comedian leaves the hum
of the studios and the bedlam of Holly

crickets and song of hooking birds.

tested, Rogers looked cannily at them

WORLD TIN OUTPUT
CUT II PER CENT
Producers Curtailing Program De-
clared Effective in Recent
Quarter.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 1s.-The ef-
fectiveness Of the drastic curtailment
program Of the Tin Producers Associa-
ton in cutting down the visible world
supply Of tin has been amply demon
Strated during the last quarter by q
production Of less than 80 per cent OF
normal output and q reduction in
world supply from over $4,000 metallic
tons to less than $1,000 tons. The
basis Of the movement has been volun-
tary cooperation among the produchAb
companies of the world in an effort TO
stabilize the price of the metal and at
the same time to effect conservation
Of supplies and eliminate ineh1cient
operative practices.
The scheduled program for restric-
ton has been subscribed to by 1A1
companies throughout the producing
areas Of the world. The Tin Produc-
ers' Association had designed the
schedule to reduce production approx
mately 20 per cent. The fact that at
the end of the third quarter the reduc-
ton In output amounted to more than
II per cent reflects the industry's sup
port of the plan.
over 81 dredges have suspended
operations since the plan became ac-
lively operative at the end Of the Sec
ond quarter Of the present year. These
suspensions range from two to four
month periods to indefinite resump-
ton of operations Other dredges and
lode mines have cut down on the num-
Der of working hours per week, in many
cases emitting the customary Sunday
operations.
Producers are firm in their belief
that the effectiveness of the plan has
been the means of preventing q fur
ther slump in the price of tin in spite
of the fact that the world supply has
been considerably reduced.
It has been estimated that If the
present rate Of curtailment continues
until the first Of next year, the visible
supply of tin should be reduced to be-
tween $4,000 and 10000 tons.

evidences have appeared of seasonal
increases during the first two weeks of
october outstripping last years. Using
the amount of checks cashed as an in

tute, In its current weekly bulletin,
finds q seasonal increase Of 1877 per
cent for the first two weeks of October
over the August-Septembe average as
compared with 125 per cent in 1929.
The volume Of freight moved, though
well below last years, will also show q
greater per cent of seasonal increase

NEW YORK, october 16.--The re-
cent severe decline in the market Is
viewed by q. M. P. Murphy q Co.
as one Of the conditions which, his
torically, has marked the end of major
bear markets. The current Fortnighrly
Review, entitled Investment Yields
Returning" points out that the average
yield on 10 investment stocks on Oc-
tober was lot per cent more than
the yield on high-grade bonds. At the
low point of the bear market of 1921
the differential was only liza per cent.
Investors are apt to expect the emo
Of a major decline to be clearly defined
and generally recognized" the Review
continues. THE history of past de-
presSionS, however, does not bear out
this contention. In 1921, although
Junes saw heavy iquidating move
ment, the extreme lows for the year
came in the last week of August. It
was not recognized generally, however,
until about two months later that the
lows of stock prices had been seen.
when actual earnings for 1921 were
considered it was found that 20 leading
stocks sold at an average of las times
earnings; using the best estimates of
1880 earnings avilable, these stocks are
selling for approxim ately 14.3 times
earnings. While some revision of the
earnings estimates is probable" the
Review concludes, "the best known in
veStment stocks are not likely to de-
cline to ten times earnings ratio"
