BARREL Of TOYS
SENT To TIMES
CHEER CLUB

A full barrel of toys for The
Washington Times Christmas
Cheer Club was delivered yester-
day by Goldenberg's, one Of the
stores maintaining receiving sta
tions for the club in their toy
departments.
Charles Finney, advertising
manager of the store, reported:
"The Christmas Cheer FRO
gram appeals to our customers.
We expect to have another bar
rel before the end Of the week."
The first big party Of the cam.
paign, all proceeds of which will
go to purchase food, clothing and
toys for the little wards Of the
club, will be given Saturday night
at the Willard Hotel.
Party at LOeW'S
Arthur Godfrey, WJSV radio
announcer, and Lou Brown, of
Loew's Theaters in Washington,
Joint sponsors with The Wash
ington Times Of the cheer pro-
gram, compose the committee in
charge.
Mr.. Godfrey and Mr.. Brown also
are staging the Santa Claus
party Saturday morning, Decen1-
ber %, at Loew'S Fox Theater.
Every penny collected will go to
the cheer fund.
GoodfellowS of other years are
beginning to drop into The Wash
ington Times office asking Tor
families to whom they can play
Santa Claus this holiday.
The Goodfellow Editors desk is
piled high with letters from such
families, all begging for a bit OF
the Christmas cheer.
Brave in Adversely
They have borne their burdens
bravely, these fathers and mothers
of families. Meager wages from
relief work or other projects have
been stretched cheerfully to make
ends meet for their little ones.
But there have been no extra
pennies to put aside for Christ
mas. And the children are ask
ing:
"Is Santa Claus going to re-
member us this year?"
Maybe the old saint forgot
them last year. Or maybe their
fathers and mothers have warned
them that they mustn't expect
his visit.
The older children know, of
course, that the family is having
a bitter struggle. But to the
little ones it is unthinkable that
good little boys and girls should
be entirely overlooked"
They ask so little, these visit
ful little ones. Just a toy or
two to break the dreadful
monotony of poverty. Perhaps
pair of shoes so they can go
to school; a coat cast off by
some more fortunate boy or girl.
Pocket Their Pride
Some are ''repeaters." They
asked last year and beg not to
be forgotten this Christmas.
Others are pocketing their pride
and making their appeal for the
first time. 1t is difficult to de-
eide which are the more heart
rending-thoSe who have learned
that asking is their only hope of
receiving, or those who are
realizing that painful fact for
the first time. All tell a story
of meager wages Cor none at
alD, of heart-hungry children,
of their need for clothing, food
and bit of Christmas joy
To these unfortunateS Christ
mas is not a time of rejoicing.
It is a bitter season that only
stresses poverty and want. When
other children are happy it is
hard to see your own in tears.
Hard to have to repeat:
"Santa Claus will not come.
We Lave no money to pay
him."

BONES, PIEDMONTEI
 BATTLE FOR HIGH AVERAGE TONIGHT
One Pin Separates Rivals Brooklyn Teams in
 Holy Name Feature

A number of interesting angles will be bisected this evening when the Holy Name League bowlers gather for their weekly assault on the woodwork of St. Joseph's alleys. For one thing, the result of indiv- iduaI scores rolled by Martin Fair weather Bowes and Louis Pied monte of the St. Peter and Paul and St. Lucy's teams, will decide the high average holder to date, Bowes leading right now by the smallest possible margin-one pin,
 SECRET STYLE
 Since the second round of rolling started, MT Bowes has made his "bahookala" ball do uncanny gyra- tions which dropped the ducks for the very average of 120.05 while Piedmonte has & mark of 1904 for the same period of time. Tonight, Bowes and his Sts. Peter and Paul. CTS take on some tough opposition in the Lourdes lads, each team standing even to date.
 STRIKE LEADERS TIE
 Other interesting teams of league competition thus far in the second round included, Pete Stokes stand ing of third high average with a 11S mark to date; the tie of Rev. Williams Wirkus of St. Pats and Tommy smegelski of St. Hedwigs who have eleven strikes each, Joe Devine's high single of 151 for St. Pats and Louis Piedmonte's high three of 395 in behalf of the St. Lucy troupe.
 Tonight an "all- Brooklyn" match brings together St. Patricks and St. Joseph, first round winners; St. Ann's and St. Francis Xavier. The records to date, as complied by sec retary Henry Pakulski McGrath, follows.

For the first time in twelve years. New Britain high basketball players, will make an appearance at Wilby high school, the teams meeting in reserve and varsity games tonight at the Grove street surface, and to be followed by
 This year, Coach "Chcik" Shea of New Britain guides one of the states standout high school cpn- binations winners of ten of their last twelve stars and the novelty of seeing a team like that in action is expected to draw a very large crowd to the local court to see the game. Wilby's chances of winning are not too good in the face of such formidable opposition. though even the best teams have "off" nights when team considered not in their class come through when least expected.
 Good News
 The arrangement of the. game will probably mean the resumption of regular athletic reIatoins be- tween the two schools, and though the school authorities and rival coaches have been on the best or terms, they have not met one ari- other in sports, due to the fact that Wilby and New Britain are il diff ferent high school districts.

EAGLE TO TURN PRO ON GAMER
 SHUCCO PROGRAM

New Haven, Feb 5-Co-match- makers Al Caroly and Lew Brown have lined up two of the supporting bouts for the 12-round battle in which Al Gainer, of New Haven, will clash with Tony Shucco, of Boston, for the light-heavyweight championship of New England at the Arena here on Thursday night February 8.
 These undercard bouts will be of four rounds, with Johnny De Ste fano. East Hampton heavyweight, facing Jerry Wright, of New Ha- ven, in one, and Charlie Eagle, Of Watertown, meeting Jack Renault, New Haven middleweight, in tho other.
 Attractive
 The Gainer-Shucco champion ship bout, which has the approval of the leading boxing authorities in New England, has aroused a storm of interest and bids fair to attract a record crowd to the New Haven sports palace. In common with many Connecticut cities, groups of sportsmen from Boston, Springfield and Providence, have arranged for special busses to transport them to New Haven on Thursday.
 Gainer and Shucco have met here twice before. In the first fight, last March, Gainer was disqual- filed early in the fourth round for an alleged foul, and in a seven round fray, a resumption of their feud. shucco barely managed to elSe out a total point victory over inc New Haven Negro after Gain CT had knocked him down twice during the bout.
 shucco will pit his boxing mas tery against Gainer's deadly punch ing and the result should pc worth Italian has out-smarted many good fighters, Including Champion Max ie Roserbloom and Lou Brouiliard. while Gainer has dealt out sleep Ing potions to numerous boxers, including Charlie Trader" Horn and a host of others. Al has de- feated George Nichols twice.

 Larrivee Loses
BY STUART CAMERON Limited Press Sports EditOr)

Miami, Fla, Feb 6-(UP)- Maxie Rosenbloom still wears a somewhat battered world light heivyweight crown today, and he is S15,O0O richer after last nights close 15-round draw with Young Joe Knight of Georgia.
 Rosenbloom was forced to ex- tend himself to the limit to retain his title against the 24-year-old pride of the southland, who won a non-title decision over him al Daytona Beach IS months ago.
 More than 22,000 fans, including many celebrities of the social, bus- mess and sports world, witnessed the bout.
 Outpointed
 Young Knight landed the more effective blows, but the cufhng, skipping Maxie painted" his op- ponent with lightning-like gloves that tore a tape patch off one of Knights eyebrows and kept his nose dribbling blood during most of the bout. The champion scored more often throughout. The two judges balloted for a draw, and Referee Harry Graham voted for Knight. The United Press credited Rosenbloom with eight rounds, Knight five, and listed two even.
 It was Rosenbloom's seventh de- fense of the title which he won from Jimmy Slattery in 1880, and it was the first time he failed to win the decision when the crown was at stake.
 Rosenbloom weighed 174 pounds Knight I'll.
