 FOR l933 RACES
Ale Manufacturer May Become
 Challenger Of Yacht Cup

New York, Sept. 29 (UP)-The made it's fortune in ale and stout, may take up the task of attempting to win back the Americas Cup, in which Sir Thomas Lipton failed.
 Preliminary conversations, looking towards a challenge for race to be held possibly no sooner than 1883, are now in progress. No challenge, however, has yet been lodged and none will be until English yachts men and the New York Yacht club agree upon the details.
 Not only is the Guiness family in terested, it was learned Saturday. but one of the leading French Yacht clubs has put out "feelers" to de- termine what might be done in the way of arranging French chal- lenge for the cup. If the French do challenge it will be the first time that any country other than Great Britain has essayed to win the tro- phy emblematic of world yachting supremacy.
 English and American yachtsmen, interested in cup competition, have been meeting at the, New York Yacht club this week, discussing rules for future races. It was learn ed on good authority that they were practically agreed on four major changes in the rules under which the 1880 cup series was run. These changes are.
 Approval of all metal yacht.
 Limitation of the waterline length of yachts to 63 feet. For the 1880 race 76 feet was the length.
 Approval of mechanical devices below decks such as were used on the defender Enterprise.
 Limiting of the crew to 20 insteaI of 33 which latter figure was the limit this year.
 These changes, yachtsmen said, would greatly reduce the cost of building and sailing the yachts. It was estimated that a boat could be built under the proposed new re- quirements for as little as a quarter of a million dollars. This years yachts cost nearly s1,O0O,000.

Madrid, Sept. 29 P}-RepubHcans of Spain were reused today to great CT efforts to end the monarchy, as fiery appeals of their leaders in the old bull ring here, Sunday echoed throughout the land.
 Twenty thousand persons. 10000 of them from outside the city, jam med the arena in a meeting made possible only a few days ago with the lifting of the censorship and the ban on free speech. They heard the chiefs of the movement fay the monarchy and espouse a republic in what was said to be the greatest re- publican demonstration in recent years.
 Delegations from every part Of Spain were present. most of them carrying banners with slogans print ed in large type. The red, yellow and purple. republican colors, were ev- erywhere about the bull ring. Omi- nously yet unused even as a threat, muzzles of machine guns poked from vantage points commanding the crowd.
 Perfect order was maintained, al though some of the speeches were infammatory in the extreme. Civic guards, police, and plain clothes men watched over the assemblage bu. were not called on for more than ordinary police duties. When the meeting was over the crowd dispers- ed without untoward incident.

 UNEAR7HS RUINS
Mosaic Floor Picture Shows
 Hercules Yamped by Sirens

Italica, Spain, Sept. 29 LP) - A mosaic floor picture of Hercules be- ing vamped by the sirens, with every indication that he is going to- be lost unless he runs away from temptation very quickly, has been found in excavations of the luxurious villa of some wealthy Roman who lived here 2,000 years ago.
 The excaYations of what was once a great Roman city here, under way for some years, have revealed one of the largest known ancient amphi- theaters, not excepting the city of Rome itself. The Italica arena seat ed some 10000 persons in the days when Christians and slaves were thrown to fight wild beasts and glad iators battled to death with metal Nnuckles. some of these appurte- nances of Roman prize fighting being found nearby.
 This colosseum and subsequently, Italica were discovered because farmers ploy ran into an immov- able stone as he was opening up hillside farm. He dug to get the stone out, but the more he dug the more stone he found. It was part of one of the huge walls of the am- phitheater, which had been filled in by the natural accumulation of cen- turies, and had become a grassy, wooded hill looking just like any of the other eminences in this re- zion.
 Any of the hills may hide other ruins, it is said. After years of work this hill was cut away and the am- phitheater exposed. Archaeologists still are at work all around, and have many years of work ahead of them. They have dug out the caves where lions were kept for the Chris tians.
 They have found busts of Hadrain and of Scipio Africanus, who found ed the place. They are concentrat- ing now on .unearthing the remains of the villas of ancient Roman lux ury, with beautiful mosaic floors, fountains and baths. Much recon struction work is necessary to re- assemble the floor mosaics, but they are being put together skilfully by experts of the provincial archaeolo- gical society and visitors can see with increasing fidelity something of what the old Roman splendor must have been here.
