MEETS {. j,

A score Of a years standing
may be settled tonight when the
Washington and Lee and Catholic
U. Boxing teams meet in the
Brooklyn gym at $50 c clock.
Last year wnen they let at
Lexington the Generals won d
synthetic ~ victory when they
won the middleWeight bout through
forfeiture because C. u. had only
Franz Fullam. a freshman, to
represent them IN that class. and
he was held ineligible. Other
teams sent foes against Fullam
last year but the Generals re-
frsec and claimed the bout.
Catholic U. is practicallJ' in the
same fix again tonight. having no
lightheavyweight Captain Jack
Nialevich Offered to remedy this
by appearing twice but is pre-
verted from doing so yb inter
collegiate boxing rules. Weighing
only 172 pounds, Malevich vol
unteered to box both in the light,
heavy class and n the unlimited
division.
There will be seven bouts,
however, since the visitors
complied with G. us request
to bring two men to appear
in one of the lighter divisions
and it is likely that there
will be two bouts in the 1SS
pound class.
Two newcomers will be seen
wearing the C. U. colors tonight.
Charlie DiComo, who has shown
rare promise in the last 10 days
since coming out for the team.
will be seen in one Of the light
weight bouts, while Gene Muir
phy, football star, will appear IN
the middleweight bout. Murphy
supplants Tom McCabe, VINO gave
up the game because Of parental
objection. Johnny Oliver very
likely will make his second ap-
pearance in the ring Tor the
Cardinals, although Coach Mltcn-
ell may change his mind at me

Calculations show that a short
ton is combined in the 10-man
card, which brings the average
weight of each fighter right to the
200-mark. If this were not an
exceptionally attractive interna-
tional heavyweight card it would
certainly be an extraordinary live
stock show. Between the five
heavyweight bouts. fight experts
can't calculate how at least three

Washington fight fans feel the

With today the dead-line for

board Air Line Railway ticket
office on the ground floor of the

But to get back to the total

ing-in at Miami come February
q, Of course Vittoria Campolo
will be the largest man in action,
he meeting Johnny RiSko in the
1O-round semi-final to the Shar-
key-Scott go.
In Campolo, members Of The
Washington Times party will see
225 pounds of fighting flesh.
Loughran will be among the
smaller of the heavies, his
fighting weight being so close
to the 180-pound mark there
will be little shimmying of
the scales. Pieere Charles, Tough
rams opponent will be at about
203 when he takes to the ring
and Sharkey will be at about 205.
Phil Scott will weigh about 200
when he enters the arena.
Johnny RiskO custOmariIy
enters the ring in the neigh
bOrhOOd of 100 pounds and it
is plain to be seen he'll be
giving in the vicinity of IS
pounds to his antagonist from
the Argentine, CampOlo.
Jim Maloney fights at 200
while his antagonist, Noise Bou-
quillon, will be about three
pounds lighter. George Cook,
the Australian. who meets Raul
Bianchi, also from the Argentine,
is a big 205 FOUNDER and his op-
ponent from South America 10

So the added weight Of the
card scales 1000 pounds. Their

CLEVELAND, Dec. 29.-Cities
have their characteristic voices
which range from deep bass to
clear tenors, DR.. William Braid
White, of Chicago, director Of
research in acoustics at the
American Steel and Wire Com
pany, revealed at a session of
the American Association for
the Advancement of Science
here.
Portraits of sound taken by
means of the Westinghouse

voice or ground tone is a
baritone. New York strikes a
tenor note and Chicago hits a
deep bass. The distinctive
tone of Washington, D. c., is
not revealed. It was inferred
by many that the characteristic
sounds there might vary in
