 PctroIIc Washed Up. Matchmaker Tom McArdle of Madison Square Garden hopes to match Canzoneri with Petrolle on May. l, but with Petrolle in the bad graces of the New York athletic commission this match may fall through.
 McArdle asked approval of the bout last week but was told by the commission that either Berg, the ranking contender, or Fuller, who defeated Canzoneri in non-title bout at Boston q few weeks ago, would be more satisfactory oppo- nents for the champion. He was requested to report back to the com- mission to-morrow, at which time the board will make definite de- cision.
 Fuller Is i'll and unavailable but Berg has announced his readiness to accept the chance. However, Me- Ardle prefers to save the Berg-Can- Eoneri match for an outdoor show and will renew his request to have the Petrolle- e-Canzoner bout ap- proved.
 Done With the Ring?
 Meanwhile, 21-year-old Al Singer of New York, who enjoyed brief moment of glory as champion. is completely out of the picture. Singer has not fought since his one-round knockout by Canzoneri four months after he had won the title by knock ing out Sammy Mandell in the ooen- ing round.
 It is doubtful If he ever will re- turn to the ring and if he does he must fight his way up from the bot tom as he now Is ranked eighth Tn lightweight rankings

CURRENT BROADWAY SCREEN HIT TO OPEN AT
 STATE TOMORROW

"Illicit," a Warner Bros and Vita phone comedy-drama of modern love and marriage, comes to the Warner Bros State theater to-mor- row for run of three days.
 The cast that presents this dar- ing picture Is headed by Barbara Stanwyck, as a modern young wo- man, the daughter of divorced par ents, who honestly believes that marriage is inimical to happiness. and for that reason refuses to marry her common law husband whom she deeply loves.
 The tongue of Mrs Grundy, tho kindly urging of her lover's mill lionaire father, and that of the lover himself finally make her con sent to the marriage. What hap. pens to prove or disprove her the- ture. Those who appear with Miss Stanwyck are James Rennie. Nata- lie Moorehead, Joan Blondell, Chas. Butterworth, Ricardo Cortez and Claude Gillingwater. Harvey Thew did the adaptation from the play of Edith Fitzgerald and Robert Ris- kin. Archie Mayo directed.
 "Illicit" deals with delicate subject in such a way as to create Ia really moving bit of life, in- tensely human, amusing on occa- sion, and always understandable.
 The performance of Barbara stanwyck Is one of the most bril- liant since the coming of the talk ing picture. She Is 50 wholesomeiy feminine, so frankly bewildered by her theories and so appealing in appearance and manner that she dominates every scene whether present or absent.

The 1880 season saw the light weight title change hands twice by one-round knockouts with Tony Canzoneri, colorful New Orleans Italian and former world feather weight champion, as the ultimate survivor.
 Canzoneri Is far from secure on his throne and if matches now under consideration can be made there is strong probability that new high record will be established for title exchanges.
 Hot on the Trail.
 Four championship aspirants. Jack (Kid) Berg of England, Justo Suarez of Argentina, Billy Petrolle of Fargo, N. D., and sammy Fuller of Boston, would be odds-on favorites to beat the reigning champion. Three others, Ray Miller of Detroit, Tommy Gro- gan of Omaha and Goldie Hess of California, are conceded an even chance to win the title if they can secure the first crack at Canzoneri.

Fam ily affection seals her lips, but she piunges at once into mad career of gaiety, wild parties and excite- mont in an effort to kill the pain m her heart. Just as her husband uses his apparent virtues as cloak for unfaithfulness, so she uses her wild esca pades as cloak for her broken heart. Ruth Chatterton as the disappointed wife, who seeks to hide her sorrow in mad amuse- mcnts. is superb. And her lead in, man. Paul Ltikas, who plays the German artist with whom she falls in love and who eventually saves her from berself, is more attractive ana interesting than ever. This pair make great team. Just as tney scored so heavily in Anypooy Woman, and "The Right to Love, so In "Unfaithfup have Miss Chat. terton and MT Lukas turned out a really great picture.

Introducing Mir Sullivan
 Fort Meyers. Fla.--There is a youthful 44-year-old in this town where Connie Mack brings his world champion Athletics to do their spring baseball calisthenics and if you could see him step through the paces you'd swear he was an eager
 kid trying to impress Q veteran
 manager of his ability in his first southern Jaunt. Records disclose
 however. that this Is his 26th con secutive year in the American League player ranks.
 Edward Trowbridge Collins is the youthful 44-year-olds name. Ever
 hear of him? Among other things ] learned from him was that 1t was iil 1905 that he walked into Connie Mack's office in Philadelphia and introduced himself as MT Sullivan J T was in school at Columbia uni versity then and I gave the name Sullivan because I was still eligible for football and baseball and couldn't have retained that status If had given him my real name," ex- plained Eddie.

Then Eddie Showed Elm

The records show that Sullivan"
 now Eddie Collins, was helding
 down the regular second base job
 for the Athletics three year later.
 He stayed there until the season of 1914 to become one of the brightest stars in that famous old $100,000 infield of McInnis, Collins, Barry and Baker. And after starring for 12 more years at second base for the White Sox he returned to the employ of his first major league boss.
 Collins may not appear in single game for the world champions this season, but he is down in the Amer ican League as an eligible player land will be available for service any time Mack sees fit to use him. At lthat, Connie could make worse deci- sions than sending Eddie in to pinch-hit for one of his pitchers.

showed that up to May great numbers
of eggs and larvae were to be found
near the edge of the continental shelf,
and that a small fraction was dis

THE Dorothy was accordingly in

were found well on shore, but the great
