hook to the body with telling effect
The first round had barely got under
way when Petrolle unanswered Suarez
into his own corner and dropped the
South American for a count of one with
9 left hook to the midsection. Suarez
bobbed up only to run into another left
hook to the same spot that sent him to
the canvas for a count of two. Appar-
emily unhurt, Justo came up, blocked a
nalL dozen wild blows, and traded
punches on even terms with the Mid
westerner Tor the rest of the round.
Suarex Has 8 Moment.
Suarez came out fresh for the second
round and easily had the edge of some
wildly exciting fighting, bringing Pc
trolle up sharp with some stiff rights
and lefts to the head. After that it was
all Petrolle. The Fargo slugger waited
patiently for openings, and then slipped
over heavy left hooks to the body that
doubled up the South American time
and again. 1t was his inability to fur
nish defense for these left hooks that
cost Justo the fight. He took terrific
punishment through the third, fourth,
NTH, sixth, seventh and eighth rounds
and was tired and discouraged battler
as he came out for the ninth round
A right to the Jaw sent him spinning
to the ropes and, helpless. he stood there
while Petrolle belted him with both
hands. Finally, the Argentine dropped
to the floor. fiat on his back. At four he
rolled over. and at eight he was on one
knee, but he still was in that position
when Referee Patsy Haley reached the

{ SPEED, ACCURACY

BY EDWARD J. NEIL,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

- EAUGA LAKE, Ohio, June
26. Fighters must be
~ something like base ball
pitchers. One day they
feel great and all their stuff is
working. Another day they also
feel great, but they can't get a
man out.
For instance, Frank Cawley, a clever
young heavyweight sparring partner of
Tommy Loughran, wandered into Bill
Stribling's training camp for the first
time Tuesday night to work with the
Southern challenger for Max Schmel
ing,s heavyweight title. Bill looked
great physically, but he could do little
with CaWley. Frank was fat and out
But last night, with a couple of days
training to work on, Cawley tackled the
Husky Georgian again. He got him
self thoroughly pasted with left hooks
to the head and body, and a few times
winging right hands thudded of his
head guard. He scarcely laid a glove
on Stribling. 1t was by far the most
impressive workout the Southerner has
turned in in II sparring sessions since
SIdIIhlB u Adlh4ils ASRc 4Oi IAl6 July y
battle.
Goes Ten Rounds.
In all, Stribling went 10 rounds, six
Of them boxing with Cawley, Tan Sam
Ward Frank Kit and welterweight
named Mickey Dugan, who was in there
for a one-round speed drill. -Stribling
hit each man every time he wanted to
with any punch he cared to use. He
was so fast Dugan could not touch him
with q left jab. He cut loose rarely,
but It was apparent that he could have
swept all four of his mates out of
there in short order If he had to double
up on his heavy punches. His left
hook to the body was in particularly
good working order.
Sometimes I don't do we'll when I
think I'm going to-" sStribling said aft
er the workout, but usually can tell
myself what was wrong. Mostly it's
something liked especially well at sup
per and 1 ate too much. Sometimes I
look all right, but I'm just not feeling
keen
Stribling will box Saturday and Sun
day nights at pm. (E. S. IT,, and If
his condition continues as fine as it Is
now, he probably will lay the 16-ounce
training gloves aside then and devote
himself to nothing but light exercise
up to the fight Friday night. He weigh
ed 1876 pounds after last nights work
out, the notch he wants to hold for
the title test.

|SHIPYARDS BUSY DESPITE IDLE
 BOATS IN PORT
French Maritime Interests Worried Over Shipping
 Crisis

Paris.---Although the maritime nations of the world have more ships idle than at any other time in the pas. nearly 2,000,000 tons of additional vessels are now being built, it has been announced here.
 French shipyards alone are con- structing BILBAO tons, and most ship owners here envisage with ap- prehension the completion of this tonnage, which is expected to ac- centuate u.e shipping crisis because of keener competition.
 In the view of competent au- thorities he present difficulties are due to ovcr-optimism at the end of the war, when countries believed the reorganization of conditions would cause boom in Information al trade, with consequent need of large mercantile fleets. The United States. Britain and France began friendly shipping race, building both passenger and commercial vessels. The tonnage lost during the war WIS soon replaced, but the building of other vessels contin- ued.

BY THE REV J. J. CALLAHAN (President Dequesne University
 (Writfen for United Pressl


 Chippewa Falls, Wis, Aug 12-- (UP)-Trisection of the angle has no special practical applications. It is matter of pure science or rather of pure mathematics.
 It long has been possible to tri- sect the angle mechanically and by the curves of higher mathematics such as the Limacon of Pascal, but heretofore it has not been found possible to trisect 1t by any method of Euclidean plane geometry.
 Modern mathematicians, partic- ularly since the time of the French mathematician, Vieta. because it's analytic solution depended on a cubic equation, have considered the problem impossible by the methods of Euclidean geometry. Yet the problem can easily be solved by plane geometry.
 The solution depends, however, on the geometry of a plane figure that is not treated in the geometry or Euclid or in those more modern works that are based on Euclid. When certain theorems concerning this figure are demonstrated, the problem of the trisection of the angle Is quite simple.
 The trisection of the angle is more of academic than of practical interest. It's main utility will lie in the addition of the geometry of the figure on which it depends to the theorems of plane geometry where they normally belong.
 My own interest in the question was of quite recent date. In fact it was owing to query put to me by a gentleman interested in the
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-08-12

question after the first public an- nouncement of my demonstration of the parallel theory.
 l put him off at the time with a reference to mechanical meth cd of trisecting the angle by Sal man. Later, last June it was, while absent from home, the question occurred to me rather as a pas- time for an idle moment. While I revolved it in my mind a possible method occurred to me.
 I soon had the necessary condi- tions in my mind and with the so- lution of certain theorems relat- ing to the figure mentioned above, the construction and proof of the trisection became quite simple.

ping conference. which at present deals main.y with passenger traffic. Each country would be given a quota of traffic to and from certain other countries, this remaining in force until the crisis passes. No plan is ind. cated for the regulation of shippif construction.
 The plight of French shipping Is indicated Dy the appeal for gov ernment financial aid made by the Compagnio Generale Transatlan- tique. Other companies indicate that unless conditions improve they also will require to turn to the gov ernment If they are to keep the French fap flying or the seas.
