I bandaged my hands while
the stout and genial John Buck
ley, manager of Sharkey, watched.
Finally the gloves arrived and
We all "kidded". American-Style
until word came that the main
bout was soon to go on. Many
thought that the champion would
wage defensive battle, keeping
away from me but Mr.. Duffy
had a hunch that Sharkey would
attack, instead. And that is what
Jack done almost from the open
ing bell.
In the first round, we felt
each other out with Sharkey TAX
ing the offensive in speedy fash
ion. I blocked at least four left
hooks to the head Che dropped
me with one Of those in 193D
and two to the body. But he did
reach me at least twice with hard
right-handers to the head and q
few to the body that were not so
hard. In the meantime, I Jared
him with a couple of lefts to the
body and at least two stiff lefts
high on the head.
I also let go one right uppercut
to the chin, but Jack was out of
position and did not put every
thing into that shot. In close,
Jack was strong, but was no
match for me in mauling. I spun
The Washington times., 1933-07-21

phim almost off his feet on two
occasions. Though reporters gen.
orally gave that round to Shar-
key, honestly believe I won it
handily.
Forces Primo to Miss
The second, third and fourth
rounds were much alike with
Sharkey finding I blocked most
of his lefts-opening up with some
bold and brilliant right-hand as
saults. He reached me hard sew
eral times and the fury Of his at
tack forced me to miss, but not
so much, I think. Meanwhile, I
was reserving my right for de-
fense, but using it, as well as
the left, with hard digging effect
when in close. Sharkey did seem
to outspear me in the second,
and possibly the third rounds, but
I was not worried. His best
punches did not daZe me, and I
had a heavy edge in body punch
ing, mauling and stiff jabbing. I
think I dropped him once with
a smash to the head, but there
was no count and that went as
a slip.
The fifth was a most critical
round and-while official and ex-
pert report awarded that session
to Sharkey-it was really my best
round, except the first and sixth,

STAR NA7ATORS
COMPETE TO-DAY.

JONES BEACH, N. Y, July 81
With three national crowns al
ready in their possession, Lenore
Kight and little Katherine Rawls
seemed destined today to carry
off the lions share of the honors
in the National A. A. U. senior
women's swimming and diving
championship. They are favored
to win five of the seven remain
ing titles up for competition in
the four-day aquatic show.
The two stars meet today in
the 400-meter free style, with
Miss Kight the favorite.
In the only other title event Of
the day Eleanor Holm, Hollywood
beauty, returns to competition
after a years absence to defend
her crown in the 200-meter back
stroke. Her rivals include Edith
Mortige, of Los Angeles.
Off to poor start in the 100
meter race, Miss Kight, calling
upon all her reserve strength,
thrilled 10000 spectators by COM
ing from behind to finish two
yards in front of Mrs Olive Hatch
Voight. of Los Angeles. After an
hours rest, she romped away
with the mile race, leading all the
way and finishing 20 yards in
front Of Susan Robertson Of New
York.

Considerable interest has beer
manifested over the approaching
Miller-Stanton baseball game
Sunday for the first half of the

Ironmen Tie Pigs for Lead
BY virtue of their smashing H.
to-S victory over the Dixie Pigs
yesterday, the Gichner's Iron
Works are now tied for first place
in the Industrial League with
their yesterdays victims. Each
team has won three and lost two.
The game was nip and tuck
affair. First one nine would forge
ahead, then the other. The Iron
men added three markers in the
initial inning when "Otts" zahn,
towering second sacker, poled a
ponderous homer with two mates
aboard.
The game was deadlocked in
the third when "Huck" Stahl,
flashy shortstop of the Pigs, hit
d long home run with two men
on the bases.
After completing the circuit,
Huck collapsed at the plate, ap-
parently from over-exertion. It
Look fully two minutes to revive
the hefty ball player, but he re-
$umed play after first aid and
managed to obtain another hit, a
;lean single.

CHAPTER ELEVEN
By PRIMO CARNERA

Heavyweight Boxing ChampiOn)
For about six weeks, I went
through the hardest sort Of train
ing for my supreme objective
the worlds fight championship.
My trainer, Billy Defoe, and
American manager, Bill Duffy
both of great fistic experience
will testify that never to their
knowledge has a heavyweight
gone through more hard condi-
tioning than I did at Pompton
Lakes, N. j.
It was reported that, while
showed some improvement in
training workouts, I was still too
clumsy and slow -witted for the
champion who was known to be
in perfect shape. Some declared
my right was better than it had
been, but most agreed that my
main defense arm was "aS use
less as ever for hitting" and
much fun was made Of my ef-
forts to hit with the right.
Duffy's Hunch Right
When ambled towards my
dressing room about an hour be-
fore entering the ring on June
%, I knew that everything was at
stake but that I was ready for
the outcome. Some say-Benny
Leonard, former worlds light
weight champion-for example
that I have not yet reached the
peak of form. That, l hope, is
so, but-surely I felt perfect on
June 20 especially after I got
going in the fight itself.

DC, JR. NETMAN
IN QUANDARY

Gilbert Hunt, District premier
junior netman, is in a quandary.
He is anxious to play in the
local Public Park tennis tourna-
ment which opens at Rock Creek
courts Saturday, but he is al
ready scheduled to take part in
the Western Junior champion
ships, at Culver, Ind, next week.
In both events Gil figures to
pick up considerable prestige,
possibly a championship.
So what? If he should start
play in the Muny test, he is al
most certain to be semi-finalist,
and the semifinals will not be
played until about next Saturday.
the day after the Culver event
opens, and the youngster wouldn't
want to default at such a critical
stage.
Still he is the sixth ranking
U. S. Junior player. and with
National Junior tourn a m n
listed to start at Culver immedi-
ately after the Western, he can't
afford to pass up the chance of
getting a line on his strongest
rivals for the coveted U. s.
crown, for he rates an excellent
chance to cop it this year. His
admirers. and they are numerous,
are puzzled just how to advise
him. What can he do?
Entries for the Public Parks
men and women singles close
at noon tomorrow. The commit
tee plans to make the draw at
6 o'clock. Doubles entries will
be accepted up to 6 o'clock Sat-
urday. Bill Shreve is taking
care of entrants at his tennis
shop.

HERMAN STAGES
HITTING SPREE

Babe Herman came to life and
belted three home runs against
the Phils yesterday just when
Manager Charley Grimm had
given up on him. The Babe had
been benched Saturday for weak
stickwork and got back into the
lineup only because "Hoss" Ste
phenson had a cold.
Herman's wallops tied the Ma
tional League record. He also
hit single and drove in eight
runs, the Cubs winning 10 to /
and advancing to within 21a
games of the pace-setting Giants,
who were nosed out by Pitts
burgh, 6 to 5. Boston's Braves
reached the 500 mark by nosing
out the Cardinals, 3 to 2. Larry
Benton. of Cincinnati, outpointed
Owen Carroll, of Brooklyn, l to 0.
Mel Harder, of Cleveland, held
the Yanks to three hits and
scored 3 to / decision over
Lefty Gomez. Averill's triple in
the sixth did the business.
Robert Moses Grove, peerless
southpaw of the AS needed 10
innings to subdue the Browns,
6 to S, for his fifteenth victory
of the year. Pinky Higgins
single with the bases jammed
broke up the party.
George Pipgras, who wasn't
good enough for the Yankees,
hurled the Red Sox to a 5 to 0
shutout over the White Sox, no
Chicago player reaching third
base. The Boston boys punched
hits effectively off their former
playmate, "BuIl' Durham.

l further appropriations. Five long years ago, Oliver Wendell Holmes expressed the opinion of the nation regarding the invasion of privacy by the government when he read h dissenting opinion from tho bench of the supreme court, saying: 'I think it a less evil that some crin- inals should escape than that the
 government should play an ignoble part =. in such dirty business" '"
 The sentiment of the public was Lexpressed no less strongly by Jus tice Brandeis. who declared "It
 is inmaterial that the intrusion was
 in aid of law enforcement .. If the government becomes Q law
 breaker, 1t breeds contempt for
 law; 1t invites every man to be- come 0 law unto himself; 1t invites
 anarchy" The House now has come to see the wisdom and the pro priety of these statements, and it's vote to discontinue the "dirty busi-
 ness" Is evidence of its welcome freedom of the dictation of the
 Anti-Saloon league since the elec-
 ton last year.
 It's attitude toward appropria- tions for enforcement carries the
 warning that repeal ought to be ! speeded. lest nullification have full lsway. Since in withholding apppo. priations the House is mani4estly expressing the will of the public, the situation ought to be reguiariseA
 as soon as possible by repeal of the
 amendment. Prolonged delay in
 repeal is an invitation to chaos.

Smashing the Atom

'Ecctrostatic engineering is going to be the big thing this year, says Dr. Karl I. Compton, president of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology He expects pro- gross in atomic disintegration. The atom is to be smashed by enormous voltages of static electricity Already equipment is available which will deliver l0,000,0OO volts. capable of jumping a gap of about 20 feet, bringing lightning into the laboratory.
 l. is all very interesting, but not so en- crossing as it might be under different eco homie conditions There has been much talk during the last couple of decades about tapping the atom" for mechanical power There is vast power locked up in the atoms and it may possibly be used some day fo: productive work. But there is not much demand for it now. It has dawned upon us during the last three years that we already have more power than we know how to use profitably. If there is controlling Wis: dom in charge of this universe, we shall probably learn how to harness atoms when we know how to drive them - not before Man needs to become not only very much wiser but very much better before he IS en- trusted with limitless power.

Country Against City

The American farmer must be helped back on his feet if it is humanly possible to help him, It is fair question whether it is humanly possible for the city population at this time to lift the rural population. This is not an unfair way of putting the matter. Prospective farm subsidies, no matter in what form. would be paid mostly by city people. Sales taxes on farm products would fall upon all of them. Heavier income taxes would fall most heavily on the small busi- ness and professional people. A couple of billions of such taxes would be tremend- ous burden on an urban population already harder hit by this deperssion than the rural districts.
 This last statement may be challenged The farmers are burdened by debt They are without money. But, generally speak ing. the farmers have the basic means of living food and shelter. City people when moneyless lack these and have to de- pend on charity. From present indications. there will be few more foreclosures in the country the farmers will keep their homes City people have more to fear on that score. Country and city must both be treated fairly. Neither of them can or should be saved at the expense of the other. The important thing is to find some CO., operative method of restoring both.

Five Flying Years

Commercial air passenger transportation in the United States really began in 1927. At that time such service in this country was so far behind that of Europe that it>was the ambition of airmcn merely to ashieve some thing comparable, Today they would laugh at such goal. Americans do huge amount of night flying; European Ar lines have almost none. They do not need it as we do, for no single country there has any thing like the distances to cover that we have. Five years ago airports were excited by the arrival and departure of two planes. Ten passengers in the course of day were phenomenal, Such an airport now is calm about 22 regular planes, two hundred or more passengers day, and arrivals and de- partureS on schedule on many different routes.
 Speeds have developed from 90 miles an hour to l20 and more. Safety has increased tremendously. Most passenger planes are equipped with two-way radio sets, enabling pilots to know conditions all along their routes. Effort is now concentrated on making quieter cabins, reclining seats, serv- ing hot meals in the air, and. so on. With all these improvements, the cost has been brought down close to railroad fares. It IS a fine record for five years of activity It rouscs wonder and speculation as to what progress the next five years will achieve

Crazy Economy

The householder who throws precious breakables out the window and carefully carries out the pillows during fire IS no more foolish than the public officials who would meet the emergency need for economy by cutting out essential services while re- taining expensive on-essential serviees' Thus while war costs mount, we find such drastic cuts in certain appropriations that there is danger of rreparable loss to the na- tion's forests through fire, insect pests and plant diseases. What happens to land whose forests are destroyed is demonstrated by China's floods and drouths and painful ly difficult agriculture.
 In many states education appropriations are being pared down to a point where schools must be closed and the work of others curtailed, while many items less vita! to the public good go untouched. The sad thing about such misguided economics IS that they do positive harm in the long run. If the school children of today do not re- ceive adequate training the nation will pay for their ignorance later on.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-02-02

The U. S. Senate must have it's whims and faneies One of them last year was 500 aspirin tablets. Another was three, pounds of biearbonate soda. That isn't 90 bad when you stop to consider that there are o6 senator's and they are in Washington the best part of the year. Still another passing fancy of the Senate was something like S6,000 or more for mineral waters. The average cost of bottle is 25 eents so your figures as well as mine show that our sen- ators consumed something like 25,000 bot ties of mineral water in year of oceupa- ton of the nations Capitol. There's room for congressional investigation. We think that the Capitol of the United States should be supplied with flow of drinking water that will satisfy the thirsts of 96 legislators without forcing them to fall back on spe. ea mineral waters But perhaps one is sup posed to cultivate mineral water thirst when one goes to the Senate.

A Book a Day
by BRUCE CATION
Successful
 But Lonely

"Ann vickers" is Sinclair Lewis appraisal of the modern woman; Q novel studying the forces that shape her life and weighing the gains and loses which the widely discussed "new freedom" has brought her.
 + It Springs us, also, tho most at tractive and human of all MT Lewis heroines. The book itself may rank 0 notch or two below such a book as "Arrowsmith," perhaps; but Ann Vickers herself seems to me to be the best fem .
 mine character Mir Lewis has
 given us.
 growing up through a somewhat lonely pre-war girlhood, going off to Q woman's college, fumbling
 with the dawning idea of Q day in which women are to be frecr
 than their mothers were. She ,s 0 suffrage worker, then a settle
 ment house director, then an ofb- cial in a women's prison; she be-
 comes an expert penoiogist, and | finally reaches fame as head of a
 model reformatory for women In
 New York.
 But although her life Is snc-
 cessfui, 1t is lonely one. She has Q love affair and her work
 gets in the way; sho marries, and | finds that her husband can't look
 on her as the capable and honored
 Dr Vickers, but only as the wife
 who really ought to be alarming his socks and cooking his break fast. In the end she devises a
 makeshift, out-of-wedlock affair
 with the one man who seems will
 ing to accept her as she wants to
 be accepted-and this man Is a | discredited Tammany judge. And 1t seems to be Mir Lewis conclusion that the cards arc
 stacked against the "career wom-
 an." She has to butt up again-t
 q subtly hostile, uncomprehendins
 world, and against her own i'm | pulses as well. She has to be lonely. But she may, after all, find | that 1t Is worth 1t.
