Chan1p Drops Second Decision
|EX-WILBY STUDENT IN BRISTOL HORSE
 SHOE TOURNAMENT

With the ancient teaser, "The home town boy goes to the city and makes good," working with re- verse English, Lou Montese, former Wi1by high school student, has been chosen by Director of Athletics William A. Garrett of the Perlmore Aquatic club, Bristol, to team with s. R. (Bob) Eversman, former Ohio state luminary, in a contest which will decide the doubles horseshoe pitching championship at Mayfair, behind the Hotel Perl more, Wednesday at 7:15 o'clock in the evening. The Aquatic club outfit will line up against a team from the Maple End Athletic club and both singles and doubles titlehold- CTS will be determined.
 Special Feature
 Bristops popular wartime mayor, Attorney Joseph F. Dutton, dis tinguished orator, will toss the first shoe to start off Bristops first titu- lar pitching tourney.

Hayes, each of whom has handled equine brogans long before any of the championship aspirants. This match will be staged on the clubs hazard course.

TO-day's Sports
 Parade
By HENRY McLEMORP; United Press Staff Correspondent

New York, July 28.-UP)- Time in it's flight does q lot more than just spoil calendars, put wrinkles in your girl friends face and bring on rheumatism and bill collectors; 1t changes the standing of heavyweight fighters with amaz- ing rapidity.
 Less than a month ago Young they'l probably call him that un- til he grows a beard) StribIing and Jack Sharkey were rated the prize flowers in the pugilistic garden and one or the other was expected to eventually win the blue ribbon that is the worlds championship from Max Schmeling.
 To-day these men have proved to be choice bloomers rather than blooms and seem in the process of going to seed in a very great hurry. in their stead we have four fight CTS, two of them veterans, two of them youngsters, none of whom a year ago rated more than scant at tentiOn.
 The veterans are Tommy Lough- ran, a man of many disappoint- ments, to mention many ups and downs, and Mickey Walker, an over-stuffed middleweight who. when he invaded the bigger divi- sion, was thought to be out more for the exercise and money than for the glory. The youngsters are Charley Retzlaff, a Duluth farmer boy, and Steve Hamas, who learned to swing his firsts within the clois- tered halls of old Penn State.
 Thomas Is "Out."
 Loughran may never get a title shot simply because of the ability that brought him from the has been department to the head of the class. It is highly unlikely that Schmellng will elect to defend his title against a man whose left hand, despite its lightning speed, runs q poor second to his hair-trig- gered mind. The German probably will choose to mix it was q fighter of his own type. That is to say, a fighter who depends on strength and hitting power rather than on a skillful defense.
 Of the thrce--Walker, Ratzloff, and Hamas-our choice is Retzlaff, Duluth dynamiter, as we believe he Is called by his intimates. Charley makes his second metropolitan ap- pearance tonight and should do about the same thing to Mateo Osa. his opponent of the night, as he did to Ralph Ficucello, a week or so ago. That is, lay him away after a few rounds of sharp ssh ooting.
 Blood and Thunder.
 This Retzlaff boy looks like an Indian and acts like one on the warpath when in the ring. Stand ing well over six feet and weigh ing nearly 200 pounds he is a sight to behold when he comes out of his corner, both arms flying and his face set in dead-pan scowl. Yep. he's nothing to take home to the kiddies to play with, but gentle men, how he lays that right one in there.
 Despite his fire when once in there between the ropes. Retzlaff is lazy and nerveless when waiting in his room for 8 fight. He wan dered into his quarters five min utes before he was to go out against Ficucello and found his manager Jack Hurley having a tough time awakening him from sound sleep.
 "Get up Charlie" Hurley said, poking his man in the ribs all the while, tits time for you to fight"
 "All right" the farmer boy re- piled, Out what's all the shooting for?"
 He still was rubbing his eyes as he walked down the aisle toward the ring

GAMER DROPS NOD
 TO OLIN IN CLOSE
 HARD GLOVE DUEL
Pair Will Be Re-Matched for White City-Sims Wins, Vignale Loses Granada Goes Great
BY JOHN Az CIUNEY

New Haven, July 27-For the first time in grand and glorious fistic career emblazoned in Con necticut rings, Al Nelson Gainer state heavy and light-heavyweight champion, though he weighs but 165 pounds met his master to- night in Bob Olin, former Colum- bia student from New Yorks east side. In sizzling tenth round fin- ish, Olin belted Gainer around so decisively that he rightfully earned Referee Bill Conway's decision which was made on margin of one single, solitary point.
 Gainer had the decision right In his gloves just before the bell hit for the tenth and final round. At the finish, Olin had smacked him so hard and often that the negro's working like @ bellows, Conway scoring the last round 5 to 1 for Olin which was just enough to give the New York win, which he richly earned.
 Al not a Boxer
 Attempting to box a smart, straight punching experienced ringman of Olin's type cost Gainer much valuable ground in the first four rounds. Finally, the darky broke through and beat his white opponent badly about the body, where he sent solid stomach smashes that must have hurt. But Olin came out for each round ap- parently fresh and seemed to get stronger and Gainer put up tired, fistless fight towards the end. Still the negro had honestly scored de- cisively enough to win a majority of the first nine rounds. That tenth round was the deciding fac tor and Gainer was told as much in no uncertain language before he went out. He just wasn't there" at the finish and Olin whipped left hooks and right uppercuts vicious 1y to AIS head and body. It was great fight, and the pair will prob ably meet again soon.
 Hot and Heavy Finish
 Young Granada of Waterbury punched out g. great win over smart Samuel Gelber of Gotham in an eight round semi-fnal that closed the show in a blaze of glory, despite heavy rain which fell dur ing the main go. Granada clearly outhit Gelber, though both o"opPCu lhc lOHSSIlOIeIlleH, WlLH Granada making Gelber "break water" most Of the time. c.
 Sims Looked Classy
 Jack Red Knight was too ring wiae for Joe Vignali of Waterbury though the loser showed plenty of courage in the glove exchanges with the experienced redhead from the Elm City. Knight won the nod but he was smacked plenty before it was over, though he gave out plenty himself with Vignali catch ing some hard socks on the head, jaw and body. Ernie Sims of Naugatuck won a hard earned de- cisfon over a tough number, Joe Oliver by name, who was as hard to drop as 8 lockwood tree. Sims was clearly the master of the situ- ation, with his cool, clever boxing and hard punching, but Oliver could take it. like Boss Tweed. It was great card all the way through, with the promoter.

How can one play an fntehtiOnHl hook?
 An intentional hooked ball Is the mark of a good player. Such a shot Is often needed to avoid trouble.
 It will benefit an habitual slicer to learn how to hook ball, for it can often be used as a remedy for a bad slice.
 In hooking the right hand should be under the shaft and the left well over. It is necessary to draw the right foot back to enable the golfer to hit out and across the line of flight. If the hook is too sharp advance the right foot a bit,

BANK EMPLOYEES
SENT TO SCHOOL
Modern Scientific Financial and
Management Methods Taught
Throughout Country.

THE American Institute of Banking
- Section Of the American Bankers
Association conducts 228 chapters, or
local banking schools in as many cities
throughout the country. One large city
chapter has almost 5000 students,
who are combining formal theoretical
and practical banking studies with
their daily working experience and
other places have these schools with
a thousand to two thousand students.
In addition there are fifty study groups
in small communities with some 5000
enrollments. All told over $4,000 bank
people are taking these courses-not
only clerks, but junior officers and even
senior officers in some Of the more ad-
vanced work.
The work OF the institute has been
declared to be "a dynamic economic
force, pouring into banking broaden
ing, deepening stream Of better quail
fed bankers than could be developed
merely by the daily workings of bank
ing ITSELF" and 1t has been suggested
that every bank worker should be COM
PEELED to combine institute courses
with his work. A good many banks
now make 1t part of the contract of
employment that an employee shall
undertake to render himself proficient
and trustworthy in banking by taking
institute work and others make sue
cessful progress in this educational
aspect Of banking prerequisite to
promotion. Plans are being developed
to make the benefits Of banking edu-
cation through this organization more
generally available in the rural dis.

BANKERS FAVOR
GRADUAL CHANGE
National Commission Believes
Local Sentiment Should Gov
ern Evolution in Methods
of Conducting Banking.

IF substantial changes are to be
= brought about in branch banking in
the United States they should origi-
nate within the states rather than
from Washington on interstate lines
as proposed in trade area" branch
banking plans, recent report of the
Economic Policy Commission of the
American Bankers Association de-
clares. Such changes, it adds, Should
develop by evolutionary rather than
revolutionary stages"
"The extension of branch banking
through state action would mean that
states not now permitting state banks
to have branches or else closely re-
stricting them, would individually lib
eralize their laws as an expression OF
changing local desires and conditions,
and this doubtless would insure de-
liberate, evolu tionary process" the re-
port says. "The other method, that is,
through FEEDER al action, would mean q
sweeping change for the country as
a whole, for legislation granting
branch banking powers to national
banks in all states, regardless OF local
sentiment, would, Of course, induce
equivalent branch banking enactments
in every state in the Union not ROW
permitting or really wanting state
banks to have branches, In order to
keep them on a competitive equality.
UpholGs State Privileges
1--WE find some bankers who feel
that a proper stimulus to the develop
ment of branch banking would be
given by the Federal Government TAX
ing the initiative through granting
broader privileges within state lines
to national banks than they now en-
Joy. 1t is argued that state govern
ments could then follow suit as to
state banks and that in this way a
more progress 5ive branch banking at
titude might be promoted by the ma
tional banks taking the lead. While
we do not deny that there may be
some merit il this view as to some
specific localities, we stand firm never
theless on the principle that no such
grant Of powers to national banks
should cross state lines, or exceed the
privileges that state legislatures could
and would giant to their state banks.
Moreover we believe that If the
choice between these two possible
courses of extending branch banking
were put up to bankers they would
be generally opposed to any forcible
imposition of branch banking on the
states through the medium of the ma
tional bank system. We believe it
would be preferable for any change
to come about through the more grad
ual and democratic method Of the
states granting their banks branch
banking powers state by state where,
If, and as local conditions and senti-
ment might be ready for a change"
