Battalino now goes back to the overthe-weight limit stuff and for another period of time, he will just be collecting the shekels in various parts of the country. There is some talk that he and his entourage will make a tour of the Pacific coast. This will be in the nature of an in troduction of Battalino to the fans in that section of the country.
 The Erskine Award committee which annually picks the team that Is generally recognized as the cham pion of the country, will make it's findings public shortly after the first of the year. A preliminary bal lot has already been taken and the final ballot is being counted at the present time.
 It is almost unnecessary to state that the Notre Dame team was so far ahead of the field in the prelim- mary ballot, that there isn't any question but that the South Bend crew will again receive the years honors. Last season, Notre Dame won the Erskine award.
 The team is awarded a huge silver cup while the coach is pre- sented with an automobile. To show how the wind is blowing, out of total Of 2,052 ballots cast, Notre Dame received a total of 1,077. Nearly 300 sports editors comprise the jury which selects the cham pionship team and, as some of these have seen every team in action, it appears that this method of selec- tion comes near being right.
 We believe that this years selec- ton will come closer to being unani- nous than any other up to the present time. The final announce ment on the subject will be made In a very short time.

CROSS IS SUING
WIFE TWICE.

CHICAGO, July % G.N.So.
Capt. Christian Gross. author
diplomat. today had on file two
suits against his wife. Mrs. Vir-
ginia Harrison Gross, daughter of
the former governor of the Philip
pines.
One suit asks divorce on the
ground Of deSertion and the other
seeks to clear Captain Gross title
to an $3.50, 900 fund in the Farm
ers' Loan and Trust Co., of New
York.
In his second suit Captain
Gross, now secretary of the
American Legation in Switzer-
land, asks that q separation
agreement made with his wife in
Paris two years ago be set aside.
That purportS, he claims, to give
Mrs. Gross $250.000 of his trust
fund established several years
ago. 1t also gives custody of a
son. Peter, z, to Mrs. Gross, and
that of Barbara, 6, to Gross.
When they were in Haiti from
1925 to 1928 his wife came under
the influence of a Spaniard who
promised her a place in grand
opera, Gross alleges. This was
followed by q separation in Paris.
Gross is known for having or

.'Tlae heat wave Is at an end. =

''The heat wave Is at an end.
That is the simple statement
/ made today by the meteorologist
at the Weather Bureau. when
asked what the forecast would be.
After that statement had been
made, he elaborated to the extent
that, while today will be hot,
the mercury, unless the unex-
pected happens, will not reach
the 10O-degree mark. That will
be due, he said, to the clouds
that are yelling the heat rays.
Three Records Go
The present heat wave resulted
In three heat records in the his
tory of the Weather Bureau in
Washington being broken.
Last night was the hottest
night on record.
A second record was sent to
Smithereens when Washington
sweltered for three consecutive
days with heat registration thai
reached the 100-degree mark.
The Weather Man said the rec
ord broken was established back
in August, 1918. when the 100
degree mark was reached on two
consecutive days.
The third record broken was
the altitude mark. That came
on Sunday afternoon at 3:15
o'clock, when the official ther-
mometer in the observatory of
the Weather Bureau hit the 106
degrees mark.
The meteorologist explained
that an airplane sent up for the
Weather Bureau at Anacostia to-
day reported that above the
clouds It is very, very. hot, and
that il the suns rays could pene-
trate the clouds the official
thermometer would probably
reach the 100 mark today.
Humidity High
While the heat is not so in
tensive today, the Weather Man
said conditions are made mo e
unpleasant due to the high hu.
midity that is lowering over the
city.
Reports sent to the local Wea-
tner Bureau showed that the
heat wave that has epveloped the
whole country for the last sew
eral days was broken this morn
ing as far east as Ohio and as
far south as upper New York.
