ADMIRAL HUGHES
 QUITS NAVAL JOB
Will Be Succeeded by London
 Naval Treaty Sympathizer

Washington, Sept. IT P>-Admiral Charles F. Hughes hauled down his flag as chief of naval operations to- day to make way for direction of naval policy by the chief supporter of the London treaty, Admiral Will liam V. Pratt.
 | Because preparation for submis- sion to congress of a navy building program to fit the terms of the treaty must be tackled within tho next few weeks, Hughes voluntarily chose to surrender the highest post in the service a month ahead of the date when his age, GA, would have forced him to stand down.
 Sided With Conservatives
 Hughes sided generally with the more conservative element in the navy's high command which did not favor the treaty His successor. chosen for the post. immediately aft CT his return from London as chief naval adviser to the American dele gation has stood four-s square by the pact.
 Give me that navy and I would n't swap it for any" Pratt told a senate committee holding hearings on the treaty.
 Another change also occurred to- day, with Rear Admiral John Hal ligan, Jr., becoming assistant chief of operations. He will relieve Rear Admiral William H. Tandley, who assumes command of the destroyer squadron Of the battle fleet on the Pacific.
 The post of chief of naval opera tions will be taken over October s by Admiral Jehu V. Chase. Until then Admiral Frank H. Schofield, commander of the battle fleet, will have charge of all the forces afloat.
 Praised By Hoover. : Admiral Hughes left the office with high praise by President Hoov- CT and Secretary Adams said Hughes had been "one of the most efficient officers the navy department has had" as chief of operations.
 Both Hughes and Pratt were born in Maine. In many respects their careers parallel one another. Pratt. like his predecessor, climbed up through the many fleet commands to it's top. Besides his service at Lon- don, he was a technical expert at the Washington conference of 1921

M'LARNIN TO SEE
 BOUT WEDNESDAY,
Jimmy Will Watch Kaplan and
 Battalino in Action

Hartford, Sept. 17-Jimmy Me Larnin, who spread sorrow through out the Bronx last week by slam ming Al Singer into sslumberland, will attend the Battalino-Kaplan ten-round battle at the Hurley sta dium next Wednesday night, accord ing to Lou Erik of New York who does Kaplan's business now that Billy Gibson has been sent to the 'sidelines by illness.
 McLarnin has become very popular and prominent figure in the ringrworld since he kayoed the new lightweight champion and is Tn great demand at boxing shows and at dinners and like events in New York where he is making his head quarters for a while.
 For a few days following the Singer bout, Jimmy walked around New York with crowds of fans in his wake and he was a great hero with the New York coppers because Jimmy is like most of them, a son of Erin.
 McLarnin and Kaplan are friends from we'll back-to be explicit, Co., tober 1927, when Jimmy drove Kap- Ian into the dust for the full count. That was a great battle: McLarnin had been down twice and was as- slmilating quite a beating when he unleashed a right that hurt Kapla and paved the way for the knock out It happened in Chicago where almost anything is apt to happen, and it was the second knockout of kaplan's busy career. Billy Wal lace had scored the first but a short time before.
 Jimmy McLarnin receatly paid tribute to Kaplan as the toughest boy he had ever met. He was talk ing to New York newspaperman Of the long line of battlers he had met in the ring and he made it em- phatic that the Hartford lightweight was the one to give him his hard est battle.
 Kaplan's relentless aggressiveness and his mitigating make him one Of the most difficult of boxers to Keep at bay in McLarnin's opinion. Battalino and Kaplan are putting in hard licks every day as the days move forward toward the 24th when they come together in the Hurley stadium for this interesting tussle between a present and form er champion.
 Kaplan works out every afternoon at 2:'30 at Hart's tourist camp on the Berlin turnpike and is gradually moving down the weight scale. Ba.- talino is doing his work at the St. Nicholas gym. Both hit the roaI early each morning.
 Battalino and Kaplan will face the mike" at WTIC Thursday night at 6 o'clock to discuss the forthcoming battle.

COMMUNICATED
Peter Perakos Suggests That Hand-
 ball Differences be Settled on the

Peter PerAkOS suggests That Hanu-
 ball Differences be Settled on the ] Courts.
 The following communication has been received from Peter Perakos, 4evotee of handball, with reference to the arguments that have been go- ing on relative to the ratings of those men who hit the little pill within the four walls at the Y. M. 1 c. A. handball courts. It is self ex- ! blaming and Is as follows:
 With reference to the articles | published about the 10 best hand ball players at the Y. M. c. A. last Saturday and last night, there seems to be a difference of opinion and many do not agree with the findings of the committee.
 /. Tt is not the desire of the writer | to cast aspersions on the so-called self-selected committee but feels that the selections were made by biased players who desire to give themselves unearned ratings and newspaper publicity which they wouldn't get on their merits as players.
 { Tt is quite easy for mediocre | players to set in easy chairs and give their opinions as to the quali- fications of others and themselves as handball sharks, but it is horse of another color to don gym suit and see how much they do rate among small group of 200 l players.
 Not all of the players mention 1 ed in the past three years have met each other in organized competi- ton for the simple reason that only doubles handball tournaments have been promoted. No scientific anal ysis can be made of players in in formal and conversational hand ball competition.
 Tt is only through bona fde authorized singles tournaments which are open to every player in the association who can lift hand or move a foot with each player playing every other player that 1t is possible to obtain a true line on every mans ability in order to give him a true rating.
 Such a tournament with an au- thorized committee In attendance to check up on relative ability, in dividual prowess in competition with opponents, would enable the I fN M q every individual player in the tour nament.
 1 There are two kinds of players in every branch of sport. One is the type that talks good game and the other that says it on the field of battle.
 Personally I think it is up to the authorized. official handball com- mittee to promote a singles handball | tournament this coming season providing those who have given themselves an excellent rating and the remaining 200 or more players desire to enter.
 Anyone is entitled to his opin- ion and one opinion is as good as another but, proving an opinion or a personal rating on a handball court requires stamina, loss of great deal of precipitation and per- haps shattered pride in ones own ability"

: If Battalino can beat Kaplan and If he does beat him next Wednesday night, it will be a big surprise to most of the fight fans.
New Britain herald., 1930-09-17

The announcement today that Louis (Kid) Kaplan, former worlds featherweight champion, had scaled 131 pounds at his training quarters at Hart's camp on the Berlin-Har ford turnpike yesterday, was receiv- ed with a grain of salt in many quarters. Although we were not present at the weighing time yester- day afternoon, we were informed by another this morning that he saw the weight and it was exactly l3l pounds.
 In view of this, Kaplan will cas- lily be in great shape for his go with Bat Battalino next Wednesday night. He should be strong and capable and already he is the favorite to beat Battalino when they clash.
 Just what the bout will decide is a mystery to everyone who is fol- lowing the two fighters. A great number of the fans are satisfied that Battalino is a 'cheese champion" or . a cream puff champ" as they term ; him in New York. Most of his friends have deserted him and the raucous razzberries have supplant- ed the cheers that he once used to hear.
