THOMPSON DEFENDS
 TITLE TONIGHT

Boston, Oct 23.-(UP)-Despi:e a decision he gained over Welter- weight Champion Jackie Thompson of Chicago in a non-title bout here recently, youthful Lou Brouillard of Worcester was on the short end of the betting on their 15-round championship fight at Boston Gar den here tonight.
 It wil be the first championship bout held in this city in eleven years and the first held under the new law permitting 15-round bouts in contests where championship is involved.
 Brouillard, only 20-years-o old, easily outpointed the champion in an overweight contest last summer and his importers are taking ad- vantage of the odds offered against him. He Is given chance to re- peat, by many, because of a terrific punch he packs in each hand.

 The old herr professor. the worlds reddest-hot football prog nosticator, is gack on the job and ready to take a shot at to-mor- rows schedule.
 Professor HI
 The old herr professor, you will remember, was suffering from the miseries last week and turned his work over to his assistant, Gott- lieb vanderwhich, Gottlieb. who established an international repu- tation by his uncannily accurate predictions on croquet and volley ball, was a total loss at football. He missed five games, reducing the herr professors average for the season to a mere 800.
 The first thing the old herr pro- lessor did when he came in to- day was to fire Gottlieb.
 "Gottlieb, my boy" the profes- sor said. q have obtained a po- sition as fourth assistant shepherd on a Llama ranch high in the Andes for you. You will please start for there at once."
 With the no-good Gottlieb out of the way, the old herr professor went to work. Less than ten min- utes later he handed me his finish ed work, joined his keepers who were waiting for him in an outer room, and was off.
 Here's his selections:
 Army vs. Yale-Yale will be a sucker for the old Army game.

 Wisconsin vs. Pennsylvania Wisconsin takes a Penn in hand.

SECOND OUTBREAK
 AT NEW BRITAIN
 HIGH TAKES PLACE

New Britain, Oct 23.-"The New Britain high school football team was never in better spirit nor it's morale higher" was the staetment issued by Coach George Cassidy, when interviewed this morning relative to the second outbreak within a week on his gridiron sq uad.
 Yesterday, Sam Miriliani, alter nate halfback, who starred against Hartford high last fall when he snatched a pass from Flood in the closing minutes of the game for a touchdown, resigned from the squad. Dissatisfaction with aCs- sidy's methods of running the team was given as the reason for Miriliani's resignation. Only a week ago White, a regular guard. ten dered his resignation for the same reason. White, however, has since rejoined the squad.
 Although it could not be cor roborated this morning, a persistent rumor has 1t that one or two others wil ljoin Miriliani and turn in their suits.
 Miriliani is not considered a regular member of the backfield by Cassidy. nor is he considered a star player.

WEATHER IS ONLY WORRY OF TEXANS
 BEFORE GRID GO
BY TOM MAHONEY

(Unlte0 freSS Stau COffespOHuentD
 Albany. N. Y. Oct 2s-The Texas longhorn football squad. on the last lap of its long journey to play Harvard Saturday, was cheered to- day by a forecast of warm weather.
 Warm weather will favor the Texans, since they are used to it..
 "All we ask is break in the weather" said Coach Clyde Little field, and we'll show the east some football. It doesn't have to be hot weather, just so it isn't very cold"
 The fact that Littlefield is antic- ipating a close, hard game was exhibited yesterday when the squad stopped at Indianapolis and worked out of the Butler university grid iron for two hours.
 Boys With the Boot
 Littlefield devoted much time to the field and place kickers. "Ox" Blanton, who defeated Oklahoma 3 to o with his toe, Craig and Burr spent almost an hour kicking the ball between the cross-bars.
 A final drill before the game was to be held this afternoon at Cam bridge, with the team returning to Boston for the night. The Texans will be banquest guests of the Har- yard team at the Belmont Country club.
 Every precaution has been taken by the Texans six coaches and trainers to put the team on the Harvard field in the best of condi- tion. Drinking water from the Uni versity of Texas campus-1S0 gall lons-was carried in six containers. Equipment for each man included shoes for rainy and shoes for dry weather.
 On the Books
 The Longhorns spent part of to- day studying. Wilson Elkins. star quarterback who is a Phi Kappa and a candidate for Rhodes scholarship. filled a whole Pullman seat with his outlay of text books, Harrison Stafford. back. used his portable typewriter to pound out law class notes.
 After the game. the team will leave Boston at II D. m. Saturday and spend Sunday morning sight seeing f1h New York.

COMBINATIONS ARE VERIFIED.

The Legislature acted with wisdom in confirm ing the nominations of Dr. H. c. DeVghne for Territorial Commissioner of Health and Mrs. Luther c. Hess and John H. Kelly for trustees of the Alaska Agricultural College. and School of Mines All of them had served in their respective offices for several years, rendering service of real value to the public and their records clearly en- titled to re-appontment and confirmation
 Dr. DeVighne has sacrificed great amount of time devoted unstintedly of his professional skill and energy to the public health work of Alaska since he appointed to office in 1921 by then Gov. Scott O. Bone. His compensation is negligible cerainly not sufficient to reimburse him for what he has put into the office He has promoted the public welfare immeasuraby by his arrangements with cannery companies for physical and medical examination of employees brought north each sea- son. and by other activities designed to curb disease and foster health.
 Mrs Hess and MT Kelly, longtime residents Of Alaska, prominent citizens of Fairbanks, have taken a very practical interest in Aaskas institution of higher learning. Their counsel has been of high value to Dr. Charles E. Bunnell in the formative years of the college and is not the least among the factors that have contributed to it's successful establishment a permanent and sound foundation.

CHICAGOS NEW MAYOR IS WET.

Anton CTony) J. Cermak President of the Cook County Commission, who sgnay defeated Will fam Hale (Big Bib Thompson, is multimillonaire business man and Democrat. He has made q splen- did record on the County Commission and was sup ported by leading Chicago newspapers and civic organizations for the mayoralty. He pledged himself to make war relentlessly against gangsters until Chicago shall be rid of that element which is blot on it's fair name, and to work increasingly for re- peal of the Prohibition Amendment which he holds is at the root of most of Chicago's troubles from the hoodlum element.
 MT Cermak is out and out ant-Prohbi- tionist During the recent session of the Illinois Legislature he spent considerable time in the State capital openly working for the enactment of law to repeal the State enforcement act and the passage of the repealer due at least in part, to his active support. Even at that time the Chicago mayoralty campaign was raging On his return to the city he announced publicly if he should be elected as Mayor he would Head a Chicago dele eaton to Washington and ask for the repeal of the Volstead Act and action tending to bring about the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution"
 This attitude undoubtedly contributed to his sweeping victory which was a reversal of the last municipal election returns in the Windy City. It was not the sole factor in Cermak's victory With out doubt the city was wearied to the point Of exhaustion of Thompsons consummate outfoonery, as typfed by his attacks on King George it was disgusted with the failure of municipal authorities to deal with racketeering and the major crimes growing out of that source; it fearful for the good name Of the city, well its success in the coming Worlds Fair there in 1883. It tired of Thompson who was compalisant in face of the serious evils growing out of lack of local law enforcement, if he not closely connected with some of the inner rings. It turned to Cermak for relief
 MT Cermaks sweeping success will encourage the Democratic Party to press it's cause before the nation next year. Following J. Hamilton Lewis's victory last November in the Illinois Senatorial cleo tion that party has to hope it will carry the State in the next Presidential election. Thus from a national standpoint, the Chicago election has a significance far beyond the immediate local success attained.

DEBUNKING THE VITAMIN.

Old Man Vitamin is the last stuffed shirt to be knocked off his pedestal by the debunkers.
 If you, patient reader, have suffered from ra- ton of bran for breakfast every morning, spinach for lunch and dinner, whole wheat bread and other roughage all the doeful time, you can give three cheers for Dr. Walter C. Alvarez of the Mayo Clinic
 physicians and dieticians over the country. After compiling reports from 47o of them he refers to the current prevailing theory as "the vitamn mania of the twentieth century and declares that the rough age swallowed generally is permissible only for those who have the digestion of ostrich.
 Far from encouraging academic diet, Dr. ! Alvarez remarks that most of us who have fair
