WRITER'S PICK
ROSS To WIN
BY STUART CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Sept. 5. - Bookings
burning question of the hour: Has
Jimmy McLarnin improved enough
TO regain his welter title from Bar
ney RossP
The answer. from the experts, is
a ringing and emphatic moi"
Barney was good enough to out
point Jimmy when they met last
May, and he hasn't gone back. Most
OF the writers who have watched
Barney in training during the past
fortnight see an Improvement.
No improvement is claimed for
Jimmy. He's a young man, but he's
been to the wars some IA years. So
it's all but inconceivable that he
could have learned any new tricks,
or NdevelQped anew his speed or
power during the arduous training
campaign which ends at Orange
burg today
McLarnin may fight a different
fight tomorrow from the one he did
on May %, but it will be the same
McLarnin. Jimmy intimateS that ne
will rely on the crashing right with
hopes of a knockout. It was differ
ent when they first met. Jimmy
tried to outspeed Barney; tried to
beat him to the punch.
Ross, incidentally, has made it
known that he, too, intends to win
by knockout, If he can. He thinks
he's laddsd considerable strength
around the shoulders during the
summer.
Both Ross and McLarnin planned
light drills today. They will meet at
the boxing commission office at
noon tomorrow for their final eX-
animation and weigh in.
Given a good break in the wea-
ther the attendance may Surpass
that at the May meeting which
drew nearly 10000.

G|ANTS' LEAD
GETS LARGER
BY THEON WRIGHT

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Sept. 5.-Charlie
Grimm and his Chicago Cubs, who
roll into the Polo Grounds today.
are finding the task of chopping
down the Giants rather disheart-
ening Every time they chop them
down, the Giants spring up some
where else.
This was to have been the series
that settled the pennant. A week
ago when the Giants pulled out Of
Chicago after having been defeat
ed three times out of four, the Cubs
threatened out loud that they
would wind up the pennant business
on their next visit to New York
Since that time certain mathema-
teal obstacles have cropped up, one
being that the Giants are now sew
en- games ahead instead of four.
The Giants have won five out of
the last nine games. Since return
ing from Chicago they took four out
of five against the Dodgers and
Phillies, trouncing the latter twice
yesterday while Chicago and St.
Louis rested.
The Giants were outhit by the
Phillies in the first game but won
in the ninth inning, 30, when Ira
Wis Jackson and Hank Lieber hit
doubles. The Phillies were ahead in
the second game until the ninth,
when Joe Moore hit home run,
winning the game, 6-5.
Boston knocked off Brooklyn for
the third straight, 81. No other Ma
tional league games were played.
In the only American league tus-
sic Cleveland took its third straight
from st. Louis. Clint Brown pitched
the victory.

GUANTANAMO, Cuba, May II.
U.P)-The most impressive and
most important maneuvers ever
conducted by the United States
battle fleet, which ended today.
have demonstrated ID that the
Panama canal can be captured or
destroyed by an enemy fleet; CD
that la Japanese american naval
war under present conditions is
virtually impossible.
For more than month since
April when ia ships comprising
the steel outer wall of American
defenses left California waters, the
fleet has been engaged in grim
If theoretical war.
It's operations have been an ar
gument for peace. In demonStrat-
ing that the canal could be taken,
it was demonstrated also that the
cost would be so terrible as to
make it actually impracticable. In
demonstrating that hostile force
could be landed on an island-or
on the mainland-by a heavy fleet
fighting a light one, the maneuv-
ers showed that such an operation
would be almost suicidal.
1t was demonstrated again, also,
that the battleship remains the
Gibraltar of naval warfare, indom-
table, impregnable. Its decks can
be shattered by aerial bombs. Its
