COLLEGE
T|LTS On TAP

Maryland, American University
and Gallaudet occupy the collie
giate spotlight tonight in basket
ball games that will bring tie
collegiate sports program to a
close for the week.
The Old Liners, coming right
back after their spirited game
with University of Richmond last
night, entertain Western Mary
land in a game at Ritchie Coli
scum, College Park, Md; Amer
ican University plays hosts to the
Bridgewater College five in the
American University gymnasium
while Gallaudet finishes it's east
ern trip which started on Thurs
day, by meeting the Union League
five in a contest at New York city.
All three Of the local teams ex-
pect real opposition. The Old Lin.
ers should defeat Western Mary
land, but it is another story
whether American University and
Gallaudet triumph in their tests.
The Eagles have won one game
so far this season, Gallaudet, four.
Both teams are not as strong as
in past seasons and because Of
this fact are not doped to score
upsets against opponents so great
in strength as Bridgewater and
Union League, respectively.

Sunrise Bakery numbers on its
lineup not only three of Washing
tons finest performers-Ollie Pa
cini, No. U. S. bowler, Sam
Simon, Howard Campbell Sweep
stakes winner, and Eddie Espey,
former U. S. junior champion
but also two crack Baltimoreans-
Ray Barnes and Ray Won Dreele,
and Bill Arnold, Annapolis flaShy
money maple-spiller.
Two FavOrites
While Nick Tronsky and Jack
White, both of Connecticut, rule
as favorites in today's classis, due
to their splendid work this season,
all six Sunrise shooters figure to
lead the field home if they should
hit the stride they are capable Of.
Team, doubles and singles will
be on the program tomorrow.
Espey, Arnold, Won Dreele, Barnes
and Pacini will start for Sunrise
in the team match against Tron-
sky. Joe Gaeek, Mike Bogino, Bill
Tate and White.
Doubles Choice
Arnold and Barnes seem the
probable doubles choice for the
invaders with Tato and White op-
posing them.
Pacini is sure to shoulder the
single assignment for Washington
while Barber is expected to send
TronSky against him.
The two teams will end the
match during the National tour
nament in March.

About HGn'Gs, Who
Fights Max ScItnreLing
By BILL CoRUM

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-As
Shakespeare used to say in
the days when he was copy boy on
the Old World, the fights the
thing and the fight between Max
Schmeling and Steve Hamas
Tuesday night in Philadelphia may
be q jawbone rattler. Both boys
can punch hard.
Tommy Loughran knows all
about Hamas. Tom remembers
the night Steve caught up with
him in the Garden. That was, I
believe, one of the four times that
the two Pennsylvania heavy
weights have hooked up, with
HamaS winning another bout on
points and losing two the same
way.
Whatever he has done to square
accounts, Loughran hasn't wiped
out the memory Of that kayo,
and II Tom should beat Camera
on February % to become heavy
weight champion of the world, I
don't know what it will make
HamaS, but 1t shouldn't make him
mad.
Chance For Both
With that roaming Romeo, Max
Baer, slowly but surely girling
himself out Of the heavyweight
picture, this scrap between
Schmeling and Hamas could easily
become important. If they should
turn in q roaring fight with a
knockout hooked on the end of it.
and the following week Carnera
and Loughran should offer one Of
those slow schottischcS to a luke
warm decision that seems to be
the common fate of fights held in
F1orida-well, that would put the
winner Of the Philly brawl right
up in the lights, wouldn't it?
The logical assumption is that
the .Winner will be Schmeling.
Max q Aanager, Joe Jacobs, made
ono bad matchmaking mistake
last summer, when he followed
his personal animosity toward
Madison Square Garden to keep
his fighter from getting another
shot at Sharkey, with the proba-
bility that it would have meant
regaining the title.
Having committed that faux
pas, it is unlikely that Joey would
be guilty of another the next
time out: not if he is half as
smart a manager as we sports
writer's have painted him. But
he may not be (sports writer's
have been known to be wrong
in these matters), or he may be
running in an evil streak of luck.
That is to say, that while you
would normally expect this to be
little more than warm-up come

CONZAGA JOLTS
TECH QU|NT

Gonzaga basketers are smiling
today as the result of their 36-to-33
victory over Tech High, runner
up in the interhigh series, last
night in the Gonzaga gymnasium.
However, it took two extra periods
for the Purple to turn the trick.
Tech was on the long end of
the string at half time, 16 to 10.
At the conclusion of the first ex-
ira quarter the score was knotted
29-all.
With less than 10 seconds re-
naming, Johnny Boyle, the I
Streeters' guard, dropped a field
goal from midcourt and Center
Munhall made good on a charity
toss to cinch the game for Coach
Orrel Mitchell's clan. Munhall

Tuesday In PhiLIy
Harvey in Boxing
Nearly Fifty Years

Hback bout for the German, It
may prove quite otherwise. Any
fighter that HamaS can nail he
can hurt and Schmeling plainly
was a long way from being the
hardest fighter in the world to
nail when he fought Baer. So
Steve might just possibly upset
Max and wreck his comeback
before it is started.
Fifty Years q Manager
The only reason such an
eventuality would not wholly dis
please-since I know and like
Schmeling and have never met
HamaS-would be because Of Uncle
Charley Harvey. Uncle Charley,
who is guiding the former Penn
State football star through the
devious channels Of the muddy
waters Of pugilism, has been
limping around the fight game
for close ON to so years now, and
If ever a fellow was entitled to
a break, he is.
Since I have known him Uncle
Charlie has had a lot Of breaks
but most Of them have been
broken bones. There was . time
back there in the lively 1920's
when no year seemed complete
without Uncle Charley being in
an automobile accident.
When this series Of SmaSh-ups
first started some Of us who
liked him used to worry no end.
But he always seemed to come
out looking about the same, so
finally we came to take 'em as q
matter of course. Not pleasant,
but inevitable-like the. arrival
of income tax time.
Close to Big Dough
And every so often he sneaks in
there pretty close to the major
money. just about close enough
to get his fingers burned when he
reaches for it. He had Tom
Heeney, the Australian black
smith, much nearer the top than
Tom ever rated on his own ability.
And his most recent import from
the other side, where he appears
to have an "in" Of some sort
Seaman Watson mixed briefly
with the top clinkers Of his divi-
sion.
But there never has been any
lasting nourishment in these guys
for Uncle Charley. So I say II
Hamas can chop Herr Max down
it will be all right with me. Only
my guess is that he won't. This
Schmeling might fool everybody
and be the first gent ever to win
what the boys call "the Golden
Diadem" for the second time.
That is, if he can stay away from
that Baer.

after the most thrilling of battles.
Gallaudet faced a strong Long

Maryland beat Richmond Uni
versity by 10 points, the final fig
ures telling the story that the Old
Liners were ahead, A to 33, at
the sound of the final gun.
George Washington had little
trouble in putting Elon safely
away" in a one-sided game which
ended 81 to IS in the Colonials'
favor.
Maryland also had a boxing
match on schedule in addition to
the basketball game. The Terp
mittmen met st. Johns, Of An

UNBEATEN
IN RING

UNIVERSITY, Va, Feb. 10.
Navy's veteran boxers come to
meet Virginia tonight at 1880
o'clock in the Memorial Gymnar
SUM, determined to cut short the
Cavaliers long string Of victories
that goes back through 16 dual
meets, and three Southern Con-
ference championship tournar
mentS.
The Midshipmen are more
than anxious to get back at the
Cavaliers for one link in the vic-
tory chain. Coach Spike" Webb
has been prining his charges to
make amends for the 5-to-3 de-
feat the Navy sustained last
winter at Virginia's hands.
Need Extra Seats
Navy's boxers have not 9p'
peared in the ring here since
1929, when they won by . S-to-2
count, before one Of the largest
crowds that ever saw . match
here. An even larger throng Of
close to 5000 spectators will prob
ably be on hand tomorrow night.
Extra seats have been secured
in the hope Of accommodating
all who come.
Neither Virginia nor Navy have
been defeated this season. The
Cavaliers opened by downing
Harvard 6 to 2, and continued by
winning from v. M. l., 5 to 8;
North Carolina, 6 to 2, and Vir.
ginia Tech, 5 to 3. After meeting
Navy they end their regular ring
card next weekend against Yale
in Richmond, then defend their
Conference title on February 2S
and "a.
Maryland, 5 to 3. and North Caro-
lima by the same margin Virginia
scored. Later the Middies box
Penn state, West Virginia, Wash
ington and Lee and Syracuse.
Tomorrow nights engagement
is the only one scheduled by Navy
away from Annapolis. Many Of
ficers of the Naval Academy staff
will accompany the team, ana
special entertainment has been
arranged in their honor when the
bouts have been ended.
Light Workout
Johnny LaRowe, Virginia's ring
coach, gave his charges only .
light workout this afternoon. They
had their last rough work yester'
day, and today Capt. Harold Stu
art and his mates had only .
little work on the bags, and some
shadow-boxing.
There has been much Specula-
tion as to whether the captain
Of Navy's ringsters, John Nc
Naughton, would be in action.
From Coach Webb comes word
that McNaughton will arrive with
the squad tomorrow morning, but
will probably not compete either
as a junior -lniddleweight or as O
middleweight.
The last Of the university'S mid
winter dances will follow the Navy
bouts as soon as the floor can bs
cleared.

STATE

A comedy that travels far from the beaten path in its riotous fun making is I Sell Anything" which heads the new show opening at Warmers State on Wednesday.
 While the story is largely com edy, there is an underlying TO- nance in which Pat O'Brien, Ann Dvorak and Claire Dodd, as the principals of the all star cast, form the three sides of the love triangle. .
 Pat, portraying a magnetic chap with glib tongue whose compel ling manner and rapid fire talk net him comfortable income as an auctioneer, has a small shop on Second avenue, New York. Miss Dvoraw in the role of waif of the streets who faints in his arms from hunger and. when he buys her steak and gives her job, proceeds to worship him.
 Claire Dodd. as a beautiful and ,gorgeously gowned adventures, chances into the auctioneering shop and completely ensnares Pat after purchasing, for a mere pittance, a fabulously costly and genuine an-
  entirely ignorant.
 The auctioneer then aspired to bigger sphere of love and busi- ness and his adventures in "high" romance, as we'll as high finance in the auctioneering of manufactured antiques, lead to many rollicking situations.
 There is strong supporting sA xx,skI Do e, general assistant and ''some on" general assistant and "come on" man and Russell Hopton as the crafty but interruptions brains be- hind the business. Hobart Cav anaugh, Harry Tyler and Gus Shy form a comedy trio as the three "shills" who bid up prices to make the suckers pay more for worth less junk.
 The companion feature will be Paramount's mystery thriller Menace" with Gertrude Michael. Paul Cavanaugh, Henrietta Cross- man. Montague Love, Halliwell Hobbes and others.
 The theme of the film revolves about a maniac who Is intent on taking the lives of three people wrongly accused of his brothers death. After lodging this terrible vengeance for years, the three meet in a mountain hom in Hollywood, by arrangement, to trap the fiend.
 But before he strikes unex- pected guests arrive and in the midst of all the gayety the first victim of all the gayety the first victim is struck down. Everybody is suspected of the crime. Then the murderer moves to strike again and with rapidity the climax of Menace" exposes him.
 The current show, which in cludes "The Captain Hates the Sea" and W. c. Fields in Its a Gift, concludes tomorrow night. The States greatest-of-all-Ch Christmas is coming December 18th. Rather inc Hepburn in 'The Little Min- ister".

POLI'S

All that was promised in the entertainment line and more is what is offered at Pouli's today and tomorrow in "The White Parade" :" which features Loretta Young and John Boles.
 Here is a story that has all emo- tions bottle up in it, a novel that has been made into an outstand- ing film and one that compares favorably with the best you have seen. Loretta Young as the nurse who has to make an all important decision and John Boles as the im- petuous lover are a team that a lot more will be heard from.
 On the same program and in keeping with the feature is another of the hilarious Dumb Bell letters. actual correspondence that has more laughs to the page than the funniest joke book you have ever read. Then there is an "Our Gang" comedy with "Spanky" MacFar- Farland as the head-man of the football team and what laughs are in this featurette.
 Wednesday ushedrs in another double feature program of the sort that hsa made Polls the mecca" of amusement seekers from all sec- tions of the Naugatuck Valley, there Is no where in this entire territy as magnificent theater, none half as beautiful and only one other, not in Waterbury, that has the equipment either for the showing or sound of pictures That is why the shows are always better at Polls.
 This Wednesday, Thursday and Friday a twin feature bill will be presented that has two of the out standing films made so far this season as co-features, the first is Gloria Swanson, John Boles and other high grade stars in Music in the Air" taken from the sen- sational stage success of the same name. Music, girls and Miss Swan- son with the most gorgeous clothes ever shown on the screen are promised in this picture and John Boles singing as he never sung be- fore.
 The second feature is ''The Gay Bride' with Carole Lombard, Ches- ter Morris, Nat Pendleton and Ted Tealy and other stars.
 Altogether here are two superb pictures that will make a grea en- tertainment.
 Polls will have a gala infinite show New Years eve, bigger and better than last year and crammed with surprises.
