as they can be released. It Is rea-
sonable TO assume that Of the 80 now

dition. II 80 are returned, together
with the "a now in use in the Ma
tional Guard, we will have 96 air.
planes. Based on the wash-out rate.
20 will be lost or condemned during
the fiscal year 1885, so that without
additional procurement, by July /,
1895, the National Guard will have
but 76 airplanes.
Therefore, in order to bring the
National Guard up to its required
and authorized strength Of 152 air
planes by July /. 1885, 76 airplanes
will be required.
"At present each National Guard
squadron has three radio sets. These
airplane radio and ground sets have
long been obsolete. It Is believed
each observation airplane should be
equipped with the latest two-way
radio set. Our requirements, there
fore, for airplane radio sets will be
l52 airplane sets and l9 ground sets.
"Of the So O-38 airplanes which
will be with the Guard when the air
planes loaned to the Regular Army for
the mail service are returned, Sc have
not been equipped with the latest
type Of navigation instruments; that
is, artificial horizons and gyro-direc-
tional indicators. Our requirements.
therefore, to equip all National Guard
airplanes with these instruments will
be so artificial horizons and so gyro-
directional indicators. This allows for
l6 O-38s not equipped with these in
struments to be washed out during
the fiscal year 1885"

Joe All At Sea About
Whether To Go To See
GermGny's Big Fight

NEW YORK, July 20.-1t Is
. fundamental rule Of the code
for the prize fight managing
industry that they can't hurt
us. But little Joe Jacobs, who
is q prize fight manager.
wishes he could be absolutely
sure.
Little Joe is face to face
with q serious problem, and he
doesn't know exactly what to
do about it. Little Joe is an
American citizen, he is also
Jewish, and he is also the
manager Of Max Schcmeling,
German boxer and former
heavyweight champion of the
world.
Schmeling is scheduled to
fight another German heavy
weight, Walter Neusel, in Ham
burg on August 26. Hamburg
is in Germany, and what little
Joe is pondering is whether
Germany is the healthieSt place
in the world for him Just now.
He thinks he might feel hap
pier and more at home in, let
us say offhand, Atlantic City.
Little Joe has his doubts, in
other words, about Herr Hitler
being at the boat to welcome
him if he goes, as he feels he
should, to Hamburg to manage
and second his "tiger" on Au-
gust 26. And his forebodings
are made even darker by the
fact that one Paul Damski,
manager of Neusel, has been
ordered by the German Reich
to do whatever managing he
plans to do by remote control.
Invited Not to Come
Damski has been officially
invited not to come to the
fight, and while the German
government has been thus far
discreetly silent about Jacobs
presence, he can't help but feel
that he may have been included
in the invitation to grace the
party with his absence.
Damski, you see, also is Jew
iSh. He is a German Jew,
whereas Joe is an American.
That probably makes some diff
ference, but what joey would
like to know is how much.
With Jacobs it is a case Of q
burnt child fearing the fire.

SCHEDULE
PLANNED
BY GARRETT WATERS

BY GAhREIV WAxEnS
Joe Freschi, well known on the
local sandlots for his pitching, out
fielding and batting exploits, be-
came an organizer and manager
today.
It all revolves around the reor'
ganization of the Rinaldi Tailors
nine, several years ago one Of the
powers of the local Sandlot group.
Freschi will be a player-man'
ager with the Rinaldi tossers,
pitching some, holding down an
outfield berth at other times, and
at all moments lending his aid at
bat, which in past instances has
been almost as good as his pitch
ing and outfielding.
Play Out Of Town
The plan of this newly organ
lied team is to play out-of.town
games. OF course, contests with
local aggregations will be sehed-
uled if the opportunity permits.
but the Rinaldis fear local clubs
won't have that chance due to
league affiliations.
Many familiar sandlotters will
cavort with the team besides
F'reschi. Winnie McNally, third
Sacker. is one, while Ed FitZpat-
rick, outfielder, Lefty Mintzell,
first baseman, Harry Clark. out
fielder, Richard Fox, shortstop.
Mike PAMELA, infielder, and Nick
PAMELA, outfielder, are others. Joe
Scagnelli will help Freschl with
the pitching duties.
Sole Bendetto is the business
manager of the team. Right now
he is busy getting a schedule CON-
piled. He can be reached at 500
Third st. N. w., phone Metropol-
tan 68O8.

BOXING THRILLS
IN PROSPECT

Although "Baby Kid Choc colate
has accepted a semi.final bout
with Bobby Brown only in order
to be introduced locally on the
Lincoln Athletic Club boxing
show at Griffith Stadium tomor-

that he would be hard put to
steal top honors from the ten
round main event between Speedy
Dixon and Tommy Clark.
Chocolate, numbered among the
the most picturesque rfngmen,
will be hard put to out-do Brown,
Baltimore sensation. Brown, who
hits hard with either hand, is
expected to show plenty Of punch
against Chocolate.

self threw too much weight on his
