IN RELIEF
Upper Body Adopts Increases
in Deficiency Bill, Giving
$4,000, 900 for Relief Work

With the $25,ooo,O0O appropri-
alton for the Red Cross tied up
in the House awaiting results Of
the drive for $1o,0O0,OO0 for vol
untary drought and unemploy.
ment relief, the Senate again
led the way in other relief meas
ures today.
It sent to the House with it's
approval the first deficiency ap-
preparation bill already approved
by that body, containing in
creases totaling approximately
$26, 100000 for relief purposes,
Work Items Inserted
Items for public construction
which Senator Jones (RD, Of
Washington, said would provide
employment for 10000 persons,
were inserted by the Senate, to-
gether with $1,OOO,0OO to carry
out the provisions of the ma
ternity bill, and $4,000 with
which the Labor Department can
make effective the first of the
so-called Wagner unemployment
bills for gathering Of unemploy-
ment statistics. It also voted $3,'
900 900 for medical relief in co.
operation with State health agen.
cies for the drought stricken
areas.
The item for the Wagner bill
had been ignored by both the
House and Senate committees
although the bill directing the
Labor Department to gather the
statistics was adopted more than
a month ago.
Maternity Bill Passed
Senator LaFollette (RO, of Wis
consin, succeeded in getting the
maternity item in the bill, I'M
der which each State willing to
cooperate with the children's
bureau in maternity and child
health hygiene receives $4,000
annually, plus a proportionate
amount of the $1,001000 annual
appropriation authorized remain
ing.
The item of $3,00O,0o0 for
medical relief was added after
a point of order.

BASE BALL SALARY

American Association May
Pave Way for Cut by
Major Leagues.
BY the Associated p

BY the Associated Press.
~HICAGO, November 10. - Inc
4 opening shot of the long
feared campaign to trim base
ball salaries has been f1red on
the American Association front.
Taking the initiative of the move
ment, club owners of the American AS
ISOLATION today considered one OF the
most drastic wage cuts in years. Sew
eral others, including the major
leagues. were expected to follow suit in
greater or lesser degrees.
Under the present American Associa-
ton proposal, the player salary
would be limited to a maximum
of 5000 monthly. For years scores OF
former major leaguers roamed around
the Glass AA League with salaries close
to the ones they received Tor oig-tlme
base ball
Such a drastic wage reduction un-
doubtedly would end the playing days
of Anajor league caSt-offs In short or
der. as most of them refuse to con-
tinue in the game for much less than
they received in the majors.
Thomas jefferson Hickey still held
the presidential seat of the American
Association today, victor OF another
fight to GUST him. When the ballotlng
became a hopeless 4-to-4 deadlock after
two days, the club owners voted unani-
mously to give him a one-year con-
tract as they did year ago.

CANzONER| SEEKS
THIRD RING CROWN
May Hit Junior Lightweight
Limit for Battle With
Chocolate Tomorrow.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, November ia
nj real championship battle was
Y in sight today as Tony Can
Zoneri and Kid Chocolate wait
ed for their 15-round fight in Mad
ison Square Garden tomorrow night
which may see three titles go on the
block.
Tony holds the synthetic Junior
welterweight crown as we'll as the light
weight title, which is the real object of
the battle, and will risk them both. In
return it seems likely that he will get
chance at the junior lightweight
championship which Chocolate won
from Benny Bass short time ago.
Canzoneri tipped the scales at 1919
pounds when he completed his hard
work in preparation for the fight yes
terday. He planned light workouts to-
day and early tomorrow. which, he said,
would bring him below the Junior light
weight limit Of 100 pounds.
The New York Italian has been q
slight favorite, but as the time for the
battle approaches public opinion seems
to be swinging toward the Cuban
"Keed." Among those who put in a
good word for Chocolate yesterday was
AL Singer. who has fought them both
Canzoner must stop his rival inside of
five rounds, he said, or he will lose the
decision to the clever Cuban boxer.

M The Detroit club has
Internationally released
Stanley Harris, its man

This does not mean that he has

lott, who under the name of ]. Lebolt,

The license Of Arthur Kennedy,

saddled a 3-year-old colt when the
horse entered was 2-year- old gelding.
Three horses, Shem, Aknahton and
Ep, which we're shipped from New

The connection the commission

signed to A. Ray at Jersey City, N. j.

Chips From the Mapleways
by FRANCIS E. STAN

"HERE are somewhere in the
neighborhood of 80 or IS rea-
sons why j. william Wood, who
sponsors the girl bowling classic,
the Meyer Davis Sweepstakes, doesn't
tell Lorraine GULL to adjust the 1881
crown on her brow and call OF the
event.
Bill Woods is an event which any
one Of the entrants might well be the
winner, all Of them being stars, and
three Of the biggest reasons why Bill
isn't conceding the title to Lorraine,
heavy favorite, is because in the
classic which opens Saturday at the
Lucky Strike there will be at least
three boWlers who weren't in the big
battle last year but who certainly can't
be overlooked this season.
They are Marie Frere Whalen,
Margaret Leaman and Margaret
Brunette.
BECAUSE she was out Of town last
d year, Mrs. Whalen did not compete
in the stakes, but this season
rolling as a teammate of Miss Gulli's
on the King Pin outfit, she has been
rising to challenge the No. ranking
United States girl bowlerS supremacy
Mrs. Whalen has been spilling pins at
a regular rate Of 104 a game.
Threat No. 2, Miss Leaman, cannot be
overlooked. Unable to compete last
year because of a slight but painful
burn on her bowling hand, Miss Lea
man this season has been the leading
figure in the fine showings of the Rem
devious and Columbian teams in the
Women's District and Washington
Women's Leagues. And to top it OIL
her average Of us in the Columbia
mixed doubles league today Is the high
est for a girl in the city.
Margaret Brunette is a comparative
newcomer, who, after q few slightly
better-than-average seasons, has sud
denly blossomed forth into one OF the
leading girl bowlers in the city. Due
largely to her pinspilltng, the ConVen'
ton Hall quint has been going place:
in the Women's District League.
TT was proven last year that the
i event is anything but a set-up fol
Lorraine GULL and this year espec'
tally with those three formidable en-
tries who did not compete last year, the
same situation Is promised.
Bill Wood last night expressed be-
lief that the score of 1,074, a nationa
nine-game record for women, would
not be duplicated in the coming event

pion, rolled the sensational score VIII
