pecial Dtspatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, october 3.-Light-
ing up Of boilers in manufac-
turing plants consequent to in
creased industrial production Is
making it necessary for the men
who sit on the safety valves"
again to get together. Boiler in
spectors today started prepare
tions for their national meeting
here October II, 18 and 10.
Since the last meeting Of the
National Board of Boiler and
Pressure Vessel Inspectors about
three years ago, the various en-
gineering laboratories have en-
phasized safety rather than speed
in boilers, as efficiency and pres
sures had been stepped up
greatly Just previous to the de-
preston.
Now that boiler fires are being
relit, inspection work has in
creased and it Is necessary for
the experts to meet and exchange
information.

His former wife, Betty Maloney

Sloan was a native of Kokomo,

a prominent figure Of the gay

Status As

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-After
racing as a professional for some

Okla, has applied to the National
Outboard Racing Commission for
reinstatement as an amateur.
Coleman is the holder Of the
world record for outboards of 61.75
miles an hour.
His case is an odd one. He is
wealthy and became a profess
sional in order to get more COM
petition when the pros dominated
both in speed and numbers. The
cash prizes meant nothing to him.
Last year things changed. The
amateurs came to the fore. Cole
man now feels that he would
have real racing with them. The
matter is expected to be taken up
when the National Outboard Rae
ing Commission meets here next

The greatest teams were the
Orioles of the COS, the Cubs

Here are his reasons: :
"Ty Cobb stood out above
all. He excelIed in every de-
partment of the game.
"Matty was the ideal pitcher.
He had everything and did
everything right. Where most
pitchers lack one or two quail

Fried Meats Taboo
It would interest other young

dry toast, ice cream, milk. That's
all. No coffee or tea. No fried
meats. No rich desserts. No after
dinner cigars. No smoking at any
time, in fact.
Possibly one of these active
young men could go right through
this menu again. But whether he
gets a second helping depends on
his waist line and general condi-
ton. If he is thin, hard and lean,
probably "yes." If he is inclined
to take on fat while lounging in

that ninety three writer's can't

But there is one achievement
