FIGHTERS RESTING
E,cn Money Will Probably Rule At Gong Time On Outcome of Batta- limo Chocolate Bout.

New York. Dec. II tP - The con- viction seems 10 be growing on New York's fight faithful that Bat Batta- lino is a real featherWeight cham pion. or near enough to it to fight an even battle with Kid Chocolate in their 15-round title bout at Nadi- son Square Garden tomorrow night
 The New Workers who first in stalled the Cuban as an overwhelm. ing favorite. now have changed their minds so that Chocolate is favored only at a rate of ' to ,, and the prospects are that even money will rule at gong time. Still local bettors are a long way from agreeing with the fans from Bats home town, Hartford Conn, who are preparing to come down 1000 strong to help Bat show the world that he is by far the best in his class.
 Both boxers completed the hard work of training Tuesday, q day earlier than is customary, and had only light work yesterday. Chocolate was afraid of dropping too far be low the 126 pound weight mark while Battalino wanted to give a slight cut on his nose a chance to heal completely.

TRY ID SELL OUT
 ARMY.NAVY GAME
Parade Of Military Units to Stage
 Ballyhoo Parade

New York, Dec. Il tP, - The Army-Navy football game Saturday is going to be a sellout if there is any means within the powers of the various people who are handling ticket sales in New York to make it one.
 With a few thousand good seats still to be sold, one of the biggest selling stunts ever to be tried is scheduled to take place today with a grand windup when the Navy team. arriving here tonight, joins the ballyhoo parade.
 A parade up BroadWay tonight, in which a 9o-piece Navy band. and attachments from various Army and Navy units around New York will take part, is scheduled to start the program. The parade will end at 46th street and Broadway where q concert by the band is scheduled 10 stimulate sales to be made from the A army trucks which will be in the line. The Navy team is due to ar rive in the midst of the demonstra- ton and to take a brief part in it..
 Whether or not tho game is q complete sellout. the prospects are that it will be highly successful as q means of raising money for The benefit Of the unemployed. and as 2 great football spectacle the out look is even better Reports from the two practice fields indicate that an offensive battle is 10 be expected rather than a waiting game and that it may result in a duel Tn which each team tries 10 outscora its rival.
 Navy's brilliant offense. which ap- pearcd in it's vict ory over Pennsyl- vania last Saturday. has continued to click both at home and at West Point. The Middv regulars have pro- gressed regularly through their "B' team in scrimmage while Army's regulars have not had much success in stopping the Plebes, who are equipped with Navy plays. The Army scoring machine. which func- toned so efficiently in winning the Cadets a high place among eastern teams. also had worked wherever it has been tried. both by Army regu- lars and Navy reserves.

WANT SHARKEY ID
 MEET CONTENDERS
Strib!ins and Grifths Count
 Themselves in Title Race

Chicago, Dec. Il tUP)-Reports that Jack Sharkey has agreed to terms for championship fight with Max Schmeling at New York next summer aroused interest today at the training camps of Young Strlb- ling and Tufy Grifiths, ranking heavyweight contenders, who meet Friday night at Chicago stadium.
 They're counting me out Of the picture, but they'll have to change their plans after tomorrow" said iiriffiths. I'm out to beat Strib!ing and take the top ranking. The re- ports say Sharkey is willing to meet the survivor of a Carnera-Stribhns bout and then take on Max, but l notice he hasn't said he was willing to fight me. He tucked me last winter because he knew he couldn't whip me and he'll try 10 do 1t again. However if l beat Stribling-ald I'm confident 1 Will-he won't Ue able to dodge the issue because q Sharkey- -Schmelius return bout wouldn't draw expenses unless Shar- key first eliminated all worthy con- tenders
 Stribling disagreed with Tuffy re- garding the outcome of tomorrow's fight, but joined in the opinion that the survivor would have consider able 10 say about the next heavy weight championship fight,
 50 Sharkey has agreed to fight Schmeltny" said Stribling, 'WeI h. won't have 10 bother if they carry out Madison Square Gardens an- nouncod program Of having JacN qualify for the chance by first mee'- ing the winner Of i5-round bout between Primo Camera and me.
 "Of course it makes it nice for Sharkey 10 avoid meeting Griffiths and Carnera-two contenders he has lodged previously. I'll take care of Tuffy tomorrow and I've proved my ability to beat Camera. If they want to put Sharkey in the scmi- finals without fighting l suppose they'll do it. but I'll guarantee hell get no further
 "Sharkey has been given lot ot championship chances on a silver platter and fouled his way out. Th2 boxing public will not support him again unless he proves his right o the chance. He can't duck the oth- CT contenders this time and I think that will put him out of the run ming"
 Stribling and Griffiths were rest ing today for t. oir fight tomorro" and both appeared in top condition Griffiths weighed 1SS pounds when he completed his workouts Wednes- day with Stribling three pounj' heavier.
 Stribling remained a 10 1 fay- orite in the bettin but there was plenty of Griffiths money in evidence and a reduction in odds appeare l probable.

COMMUNICATED
My Dear Sports Editor:

The interesting article on Gay Bromberg was indeed timely. and a general agreement with you that his phenomenal success in athletics is in order, must be admitted.
 Your article brings 10 mind that the local high school has d way Of rcWarding outstanding athletes in the awarding of the Burns menor- Ial. the requirements of the award being athletic proWess. scholastic at tainment and character. Investiga- ton shows that Rromberg. although considered for the Burns award, did not receive it. Marion Zaleski was a candidate and was finally beaten out for the award,
 Bromberg was an honor tudent q football star. q basketball player of no mean ability. crack first sack CT. and by-the-way, he led the base ball team in hitting, and was q de- pcndable performer for the track team. Were all these things carefully Vt ighcd when he was considered surely this array of circumstances should cntitle an athlete 10 more than passing mention. Marion Za- leski was also three letter man in sports, and stood high in his studies.
 4 statement accredited to the To- cal high school mentor appeared in your columns last year, saying that he had predicted that Bromberg would make the All-America even while member of the high school team. Has any further notice been made of the man who received the award that particular year or did his athletic proWess stop when he left the local school?
 With the honors that have been shoWered OH Gay at Dartmouth and the success that Zaleski has attain ed at Fordham, having won letters in three major sports, it would seem that the awarding of the Burns me- morial has become just a gesture, nothing more, and if it is just ges- ture, let's cut it out or let's have 1t awarded on it's merits.
 Yours very truly,
 A FAN.

HAS LIGHT BACKFIELD
Nays Best Ball Carriers Will ANer- age About 163 Pounds When
 They Face Army Saturday

Annapolis, Md, Dec. II tP-The light weight of Navy's best backfield players has brought several clouds to the brows of their coaches, but so far it has not hampered them in tearing through the players who represent the Army team in their preparations for Saturdays game.
 Coach Bill Ingram plans to start backfeld which averages only about 1G3 pounds, Dale Bauer, Johnny Cannon, Lou kirn and Os- car Hagberg, and his second string backs are not much heavier. These light weights had no trouble, how ever, in making big gains yesterday through a B" squad which used Army defense formations. The situ- ation was reversed, however, when the regulars went on the defensive.
