STRIBLING HAS
LONG RECORD In
BOXING CIRCLES
BY LEO BARON
United Press Staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND, June 18. UP)-Just
a decade ago, William Lawrence
Stribling, then 16, thrust his spind-
ly legs through the ropes of an At
lanta ring and offered battle to one
Kid Domb, bantamweight of un-
certain prowess, promise and pres
ent whereabouts.
Domb may or may not have been
that way, but leastWise he lost, thus
providing his opponent with victory
in the first professional fight of his
career.
Today Kid Domh's conqueror
imbued with more wisdom, guile
and ruggedness, is strenuously pre-
pairing to battle his 296th profess
sional opponent, who chances to be
Herr Max Schmeling, heavyweight
champion of the world.
The names Of 295 fighters writ
ten through the career of Willie
Stribling exceed numerically the
combined records of John l.. Sulli-
van, James j. Corbett, Bob Fitzsim-
mons, Jim Jeffries, Jess Willard,
Jack Dempsey and Gene Tulnney,
none of whom approached within
200 the number of fights in which
the Georgian has appeared a prin-
cipal. If he wins from Schmeling
it will be the first time in history
of the top division of boxing that a
champion can boast of more than
100 bouts to his credit
Has Been Licked
Ten times he has suffered the ig-
nominy of defeat, four times while
he was still battling around the
Georgian provinces as a school-boy.
His other conquerors were Jimmy
Slattery, Paul Berlenbach, Tommy
Loughran, Jack Sharkey, Babe Hunt
and-for the purpose of the rec
ords-Primo. Carnera, whose victory
was questioned. To Hunt, Stribling
lost on a foul. Berlenbach admin
istered perhaps the most ignomini-
Gus defeat OF his career, lashing
him to ribbons and once flooring
him, but still unable to blot him
into unconsciousness.

As result of vote pass ed by the relief committee, MT Reed was presented with RIGA Victor record of the address of President Herbert Hoover on un- employment delivered by the na- tion's chief executive on october 18th.
 The national unemployment re- lief committee, of which Prest- dent Hoover is the head, had rec ords made of his October 18th ad- dress and sent one record to each of the cities and towns in the country in which unemployment aid has been carried on.
 It was stipulated by the national committee that the record sent to each community should be given to the individual who was consid- cred as having done the most to relieve suffering during 1881.
 The local relief committee was unanimous in awarding the record to MT Reed. The presentation was made by William M. Harris, chair man of the relief committee. MT Reed, in accepting the record, de- clared that in his opinion the rec ord should have gone to Mir Harris but it was explained that one of the rules stipulated by the national committee was to the effect that the award was not to be made to any paid social service worker but q volunteer.

NEW DRAMATIC SMASH 1.-THE GUILTY G GE N E R A 1T II Q N OPENS 3-DAY ENGAGEMENT AT THE STATE

Whatever your own family ties are, you cannot fail to understand and be emotionally torn by 1t, in '..The Guilty Generation" now at Warmers State theater, which sets forth daringly and without com promise the tragic situation of in- nocent members of a family suf- fering through the guilt of others
 Here are two children, @ boy who has legally taken the name oi John Smith and who sturdily re- fuses to let his fathers wealth make his career easier, because he is SO ashamed of his fathers racket, and girl who is SC dominated by her father.
 They meet at a garden party Mike Palmero has given to tn- troduce his daughter to society," and society comes simply because it gets a thrill out of rubbing el- bows with racketeers. Maria and Smith love at sight. but bitterness creeps into their romance when she learns that he is the son of hei fathers enemy = in fact. the Pal. meros and the Riccas are engaged in deadly feud.
 What shall they do? Renounce all hopes VI nupPihSss ucCoueo tneS are their fathers children? Tel the truth and hope for mercy? Or love in secret? The plot is logical. ly worked out with 6 dramatic force that sustains q tense interest to the surprise climax.
 Leo Carrillo gives another of his superb characterizations. but thi' time he is a racketeer without 2 single sympathetic quality. He ii uncompromisingly bad and hi power over his daughter Is so con vincinR that your sympathies ars doubIy aroused for her. Constancs Cummings, who has n rare beaut, and charm, Is exquisite and ap

DRAMATIC THRILLER, 1.-THE GUILTY GENERATION OPENS
 AT THE STATE TOMORROW

How children suffer for the sins of their parents how family ties make young innocents guilty is the theme of "The Guilty Generation" which opens at Warm CT Brothers State tomorrow as the second in the new 1931-1932 Pa rade Of Hits booked for early showing at this popular theater.
 It is a thrilling tale told in a forceful manner and superbly acted by cast headed by Leo Car rillo. Constance Cummings and Robert Young are the two young people who almost come to disas- ter, not because of their own evil doings, but because they are their parents children. Their near tragic love affair will arouse your sympathy to the point that will bring a lump into your throat and tears to your eyes.
 Briefly, it tells a story of two families. The fathers are engaged in a feud over supremacy in the bootlegging racket. Their prac- tices in attempting to secure con- trol are anything but ethical. As result their families live in a constant reign of terror. Their life is unbearable. When the son of one. family falls in love with the daughter of the other, the sit uation becomes crucial and the consequences involve those con- cerned in really vital drama.
 Leo Carrillo is the motivating force behind it lal. He is an actor! He even puts artistry into the fiicking of cigar ashes. You will enjoy every minute he is on the screen--and that is practically the whole picture. Emma Dunn in a character role contributes an out standing screen portrayal. Con- stance Cummings, Robert Young Boris Karloff, Leslie Fenton and Ruth Warren are others who give capable performances

TOUCHDOWN" CLOSING
 TONIGHT AT STATE; JACK
 OAKIE A RIOT IN NEW ROLE.


 Performances this afternoon and evening mark the final showing of touchdown" the new Paramount hit that has been furnishing royal screen entertainment to patrons of Warner Brothers State theater the past three days.
 "Touchdown" is a football pic- ture but one that every moviegoer can enjoy whether or not he knows the first thing about the game itself. It is the human in- terest side of football and Jack Oakie literally "steals" the picture from Richard Arlen, it's star, In one of the finest comic roles this champion wise-cracker has yet been given.
 'Touchdown!" is a football story which Cat last) does NOT attain its effects through a last-minute, heroic dash across the opponents grimly-defended goal-posts. The glory and exaltation rather. is wholly moral; and unattended by the customary winning of the cru- cial game. Tn fact, in "Touch- down!" the home team actually loses the final game.
 By employing the talents of men who know their football and who know their human-nature, Para mount here presents, in effectively touching realism, the inside goings- on, the fears and joys, the pain and glory of an heroic national pas time.
 Besides Arlen and Oakie the cast includes Peggy shannon, Regis Toomey, J. Farrell Macdonald, Coach uoxUard TOuaa of Southern California, Jim Thorpe, Carlisle Indian rated as the greatest ath- lete of modern times, and 30 gridiron stars including Ale Americans. See this picture-it's Q honey-and the first of the States new 1931-1932 Parade Oe Hits" The surrounding program is a dandy headed by Tom How ard, popular screen comic, in a riotous comedy unemployed Ghosts"
