 NIGHT CONTEST

Philadelphia, Oct 29-(UP)-A heroic stand at its own goal line preserved Temple university's foot ball record of no defeats last night when the Owls battled a 7-7 dead lock with Carnegie Tech, before 10000 spectators at Temple field.
 After both elevens had scored in the second quarter, the Carne- in the third period and battered the Owls back almost to the lime splashes from their goal line. The Temple line held like a stone wall, and Carnegie lost the ball within six inches of touchdown. It was quickly punted out of danger.
 Carnegie was the first to score. Tech marched the Owls back to their goal from mid-field as Navel and Spizak tore huge holes in the line. A short pass to Temples 10- yard line was followed by three thrusts to the one-yard stripe. Af- ter 8 Tech penalty of five yards for off-side, Bill Spizak, fiashy halfbnck, scampered around right end for Techs touchdown. Stew art place-kicked the extra point.
 After several penalties, Temple started a drive from it's own 38- yard line, and swept up-field with alternating forward passes and line plunges to the Tartan's 10-yard mark. On the fourth line thrust Johnson cracked left taskle for three yards and touchdown. He also place-kicked the goal that tied the count.

Salt Lake City. Utah. oct. 29- Don't ever approach Glen Wade. who is quite a wrestler around these parts, and offer to shake hands with him. You're apt to pick yourself up out of the gutter.
 The reason is this:
 Wade and Ira Dern were engag- cd in a wrestling match here re- gently. Each had annexed one fall. Came a moment when Dern tossed Wade out of the ring. Groggily, the com blatant started to climb in again. He started for the ring with fists doubled and fire in his eyes.

NICHOLS HANDED
 BAD BEATING BY
 GERMAN SLUCCER

Boston, October 29 = (UP) - Adolph Heuser, German light heavyweight, won himself a title fight when he decisively defeated George Nichols of Buffalo, N. r., National Boxing Association's light heavyweight champion in a non- title 10-round bout at Boston Arena last night.
 After the bout both boxers agreed to meet in title bout here November IT. over the 15-roupd. route.
 Up and Down
 Heuser won by a comfortable margin in a fierce-punching bout replete with knockdowns, Heuser scoring six, and Nichols three.
 The winner tried hard for a knockout victory in the first round and though he floored Nichols three times in this round, he could not keep him down. Nichols ral- lied in the second and matched the German blow for blow until the sixth round when the pace, and effects of blistering body blows slowed Nichols down. Heussr romped away with the last four rounds.
 Heuser weighed 176 1-2. and Nichols ITO.
 In the semi-final, Steve Halaiko, also of Buffalo, outpointed George Salvatore of Oak Bluffs in q closely lightweight bout

Last year, the schools turned 1, bver $700 to the municipal milk
 fund, of which Dr F.. J. Godfrey,
 city health officer is chairman. This eeason, any contribution such as i that will just about ruin any chance of basketball, baseball and other I sport teams being put on the field during the coming seasons. The 3cng and short of the story is tha: the high school athletic associations
 need every penny they can get to- ! gether to pay bills already con- tracted and those which must be met in the future If the regular sports are to be presented on the /. same scale as has been in force for
 several years.
 Not a Chance
 | With a quarter and Is cent ad- I missions in vogue at the Hamilton park field, the money taken in by both school athletic associations
 this season, wouldn't buy a good football helmet for player. It seems, the majority of so-called I .fans" prefer to cone over the Hence at the park or elsa watch the games from the hillside, even with l15 cent admissions, with the result Ithat the schools are being hit very hard financially.
 { In order to placate the situation hs far as possible, the Wilby and { Crosby Alumni assiciations have agreed to play a game for the Milk tFund the Sunday after Thanksgiv- ling, SO that the athletic associations tmay be excused from making any Econtributions such as they made Hast season, a forced gesture which threw them into a financial tail spin.
 Boys Need Break" Many school men connected with
 both schools hope that the Board of Education, will see the situation [ an the right light, and help the high school boys by allowing them to keep all of the Wilby-Crosby game receipts which, after all, is the only real source of revenue that the schools have had for the past few years, during the football season.
 If the schools are forced to make another $700 contribution to the Milk Fund, it means drastic cutting Eof sport programs during the next lNear, which many feel is unfair to the boys themselves.

JAPANESE WRESTLERS
 BRED, NOT BORN
By NEA Service

Tolxio, Oct 20-Instead of the highly ''Organized' wrestling business that flOurishes in the United States, Japan still keeps its native sport simon pure. The mat men who achieve fame in Japanese rings have no football or coal-stOking experi- ence. The wrestlers in this cOun- try are bred from birth into the trade.
 They are raised from babies on a special food kIfown as "sake'', and are generally de- scendents of long lines of wrest- ling ancestors. The boys are carefully tutored in the business until they are old enough to marry. When that event hap pens, they are generally paired with the daughter of wrestler. In this way wrestling is confined to class and instilled in the blood of every child.

 Browning is the originator and master of several spectacular wrestling holds, namely the turn over scissors and airplane spin. It is claimed that Jim is the only man in the game who can use these holds effectively and it is his great leg strength that makes this pos sible.

There are three of the Bow ser boys on Tuesday nights card.
 The semi-final finish frag will put on display Johnny Supsie. local fa- vorite, and George Mcleod, Boston bad man. These two terrors bat- tied to a draw on the last card ana want to fight it out and now it's up to them.
 Popular Earl McCready. Okla homa star, will clash with Mike Mazurki, pleasing Pole from New York. in the special 30-minute al. traction and there are thre other good time limit matches. In one O: them the mystery of Milstead will be answered when Century faces Milo Darnaldi. rough. tough.

RISE Of POUND
HITS TARIFF

LONDON, March 20 Q.N.S0. .
Financial circles, anticipating fur
ther rise in the pound sterling,
predicted today that the govern
ment would not intervene until it
reaches a level where it no longer
is attractive to spectators.
The city felt that if official in
tervention is withheld for a long
period, there would be nothing
to prevent the pound from rising
above $4.00. Some believing that
it would even go up to par
($4.8665).
British importers are beginning
to feel the effect of the rise,
which has been steady during the
past few weeks. The upward
swing of sterling has tended to
destroy the effect of the new
tariffs, and some government Of
ficials appeared worried over this.
