pass on his own 80 yard line, rae
ing to the Yuma 10 yard line be-
fore he was dropped by the Yuma
safety. Byrd gained five yards on a
line plunge and Maiden carried the
ball over for the only local score.
This was early in the first quar-
ter.
For the most part it was game
which kept the crowded stands
tense. Before the first half was over
the contest had assumed that quail
ity which caused the spectators,
except students of the two schools,
to cheer impartially the brilliant
plays of both teams. And the game
was full of brilliant plays, as well
as shining errors.
Leroy Jones secured his place in
Ell Centro's hall of football fame
with many long drives and plenty
of yardage. Myrel Gillett and John
O'Guin were not far behind in the
ball carrying department. Leo Mad
lem, although responsible for sew
eral good gains, seemed to be af-
fected by recent illness.
Tackles Good
On the line Kirkpatrick and
Adams formed a deadly tackling
combination, doing service for their
school in the most unspectacular
positions of the team, but doing it
in a spectacular manner. Robert
Elliot, right end, provided the nee
essary kicking strength for Ell
Centric.
Ell Centre opened the game by
kicking off to Yuma. The visiting
fullback made splendid return,
only TO ruin it by fumbling at the
tackle. Ell Centre made desperate
stabs after gaining the ball, but
was forced to kick. Yuma, going
down the field, attempted long
pass. Berry was there, snagged it
cut of the air and raced away,
only to be dropped by the safety.
Drives by Byrd and Maiden scored,
but Ell Centre failed to convert.
For the rest of the half the field
saw a swaying tide of players, see
saving from one end of the field
to the other, threatening time and
again to score but never carrying
through their threats.
The second half saw Yuma tight
en- up SO that Ell Centre found
difficulty in getting through the
line. A punting duel ended with
the third quarter and found the
ball on Ell Centro's Is yard line, as
the result of two startling long
runs by Yuma.
The last quarter opened with a
determined Ell Centre team backed
up against its own goal line. Yu-
ma made downs, and had goal to
go. Ell Centres best was not good
enough, and Yuma pushed through
score, converting on a fake drop
kick which turned into a line drive

M'LARNIN STOPS
BENNY LEONARD
In SIXTH ROUND
By JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-UP)-
Young Jimmy McLarnin's batter
ing fists halted old Benny Leon
ards comeback march with a tech
nical Knockout in the sixth round
of their scheduled 10 round bout
last night.
The 81 900 fans breathed with re-
lief when Referee Arthur Donovan
threw his long arms about the stag
gering, semi-bald man in the black
tights to save him from further
punishment. They had believed for
some time that Benny couldn't
turn back the clock.
In the second round a solid left
Jolt to the jaw sent the former
lightweight champion to the floor
for the count of nine. That blow
blasted Leonards comeback dream.
The end came in the sixth round
when Leonard, once the greatest of
them all, tottered about helpless
ly in the center of the ring, mere
ly a bruised target for Jimmy's
thudding lefts and rights. More
than two minutes of the round
had elapsed when the "a year old
Vancouver battler staggered his 36
year old opponent with an over
hand right to the jaw McLarnin
followed this with barrage to the
head and body that almost doubled
Leonard up.
Unwilling to keep pounding away
at this helpless old fellow, whom
he had regarded as an idol years
ago, Jimmy turned to the referee
and motioned for him to stop the
affair. Donovan stepped between
them shortly afterward.
Despite its pathetic ending, the
bout furnished the capacity crowd
with a brief thrill in the opening
round when roar after roar of
frenzied cheering shook the garden
to its steel rafters. A momentary
flash-back of Leonard "The Cham
pion" threatened the miracle of a
comeback.
AS McLarnin started left hook,
Benney swung inside and caught
him on the jaw with short right
that nearly floored his younger OPP
ponent. Dazed, Jimmy hung on for
a moment. His head cleared. Soon
he was blazing away at Leonard.
He nearly drove the old master
through the ropes with a left hook
to the jaw. Leonard was slightly
groggy at the bell.
After taking the nine count in
She second round, only Benny's
fighting heart and instinct of self
defense kept him on his feet. The
knockdown Slapped the kick from
his punches.
Leonard weighed 1907 pounds,
McLarnin 1471a.
Baby Joe Cans, 145, California,
added another knockdown to his
string by stopping Eddie Moore,
149, of Bridgeport, Conn, in the
second round of a preliminary.
In another round preliminary,
frankie Klick, 1856, also of Cali
fornia, fought draw with Bobby
Pacho, 1875 of Ell Centre. y

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
In T0DAY'S NEWS
BY HENRY McLEMORE
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT


NEW YORK, Oct. 8. = The ro-
dec is booked for Madison Square
Garden in a week or SO, and the
officials have been casting about
for a means of testing the build
ing. Before letting in the wild
west outfit it is customary to test
the floor and ceiling and girders
to see if they are in shape to
withstand the frenzied going onS
of the broncos, steers and other
playful beasts which compose the
cast of a rodeo.
Several tests were suggested.
One was to hold a cross country
between large and representa-
tive field of army tanks with
some spot high in the balcony as
the finish line. Another was to
have all the Tammany politicians,
or as many as was possible, to
double chins and a Falstaff stom-
ach are required courses in the
Wigwam, such parade would
have its points.
But after long elaboration it
was decided to abandon these
plans in favor of what is known
as the acid test. A rasslin show
was arranged for Monday night.
A raSSlin match, with several
tons of beef unbroken to harness,
is recognized as the final test Of
any construction, it was used on
the coliseum in Rome, and you see
what happened. A rasslin' show
tests everything-from the ninth
row mezzanine to the gullibility
of the public.
The main bout of the evening
will bring together Ed Lewis,
known to his intimates by the
chummy nickname of Stranger"
and Jack Sherry of Minnesota.
Long rated as one of the best men
in the business, Sherry has been
slow in reaching the top flight.
Maybe his delay in climbing into
rasslin'S 400" is due to his lack
of colorful sobriquet.
Has No Color
Insofar as we know, Jack is
simply known as Jack Sherry.
ThatS a mistake on Cne parC OF
his management. We dare say
that had he been advertised as
the mad, mad monster from
Minnesota" or the "mule-faced
mammoth or Mimi. he would
have long ago scaled the heights.
The match, by the way, is for
the championship of the world"
Naturally, the town is all agog-
cog. It's been nigh on to week
since New York had its last title
match.
Lewis is the present champion
of the world" That is, in New
York state. In some common
Wealths Henri de Glane is the title
holder. In others it's John Pesek.
In still others Jim Londos, the
Greek built along the classical
lines of Hereford bull, is recog-
nized as the wearer of the royal
purple.
Lewis has been champion" only
a few weeks, He earned his place
in the sun by edict of the New
York state boxing commission.

New York, Nov 26- (UP)- Prices reacted further this week on the New York stock exchange. The industrial average broke through it's october resistance lew el and all groups participated in the decline on a lesser scale.
 Railroad shares were the best performers of the list. They were aided by substantial gains in net operating income for major roads in october. For the week ended November 19, car loadings rose 38,75S cars and made the best comparison of the year against 1881. However. the loadings report came in the short session today when many traders wanted to be out of the market for the weekend and 1t had no effect on the buying side.
 Utilities made a better showing than the industrials, although the communication shares had periods of sharp decline. Gold mining is- sues were strong most of the time, Homestake making record high above 160. Oils were steadier than most groups. Foods were weak notably Coca Cola which made a new low for the year and corn products which had a wide decline.
 Steel common and all industrial leaders moved lower. Farm equip ments followed wheat down as the latter dropped to new record levels in the history of the Chicago board of trade.
 Movements of the week on all markets were largely guided by the war debt situation. Uncertainties on that score brought heavy selt-

 LEVELS ABOVE
 LAST YEARS
Recent Upturn Will Bring Late December An d Early January Up If Trend Continues

Minneapolis, Nov Employ ment in manufacturing industries will pass the levels of the corre- spending month of year ago by late December or early January if present trends are. continued, &C., cording to a study recently com pleted.
 Abrupt declines last year. &C., cording to department of labor figures, brought the level down to an. index figufe of 65 at the year end. The recent upturn, however, is causing line to be established from present low levels through a point just below 60, starting from a figure below 55 in July, which will cause the line to break through and exceed the index of a year ago, sometime in late '32 or early '83.
 This is no mere statistical coin- cidence but has basic reasons be- hind it, according to surveys. It is felt that while the upturn may not continue at quite the same rate at which 1t now proceeds, due to seasonal factors, sufficient economic force has been generated to cause 1891 employment levels to be passed at the time indicated.

 The decision to make the sur vey of the New England cities and towns was made recently by the New England Council and cooper ation was promised at subs0. quent meeting of the New England Daily Newspaper Association m Boston. Mass.
 It Is felt that publication of the information obtained will greatly assist taxpayers associations, where they exist. According to the plan of the council, the problem now E how to secure reductions in local budgets. To this end, 1t is pointed out, the first essential is an in- formed public opinion that Twill support the economy measures that must be adopted if reductions arc to be had. It has, been proven that public expenditures can be reduced when there is the will to reduce, it is claimed by the council.
 In the survey local expenditures from 1912 to 1892 will be taken in- to consideration. The per capita cost of government over the same period will also be studied.
