That worlds light-heavyweight championship fight New York is going to have the pleasure of sec ing, between Maxie Ro5enbloom and Bob Olin, will be watched with interest from as far away as South ern California, strangely enough, writes Paul Zimmerman.
 You see Olln and Rosenbloom have been campaigning hereabouts.
 "Of course no one here thinks it means a thing, but Branch Bach man, Rosenbloom's manager, locke after the interests of Olin when he first came to California and actually was in his corner when he fought Bob Goodwin the first time in Hollywood.
 Only few days before the Ros- enbloom-O match was closed in New York, the pair of them waltzed together and like a couple of pals sat at ringside while two tantams hit it up.

 Fern Bell, local boy who has been batting 370 for the Tyler Club of the Dixie League, will take Carlyle's place in the outfield. The New York Yankees, who pur- chased Bell for Hollywood, will get a fly-chaser from New York to take the place of Earle Combs, who recently was severely injured.
 Carlyle, a stellar player of past seasons, has been at outs with Bill Lane since the Hollywood club owner fined him for failing to show up for the final double header last year. The player claimed he was sick, but the fine stuck.

VETS AND ELkS PLAY 2ND GAME
 THIS EVENING
Bills Have One Game Lead and Will Seek to Make
 It Two Tonight

With one-game advantage, the Elks today will put forward their star chucker, Claud Erskine in an effort to make it two straight over the American Legion in the Little Worlds Series. The second game is billed for tonight.
 Weather indications this after noon were none too good and the official forecast was cloudy and showers this evening. If postpone ment is necessary, the game will be played Thursday evening if the weather is favorable then.
 Manager Goddard of the Vets is crippled with the absence of Ward McAlister whose injured hand will keep him off the mound, and who is working a shift that keeps him out of the series. Ev' Novel;, leading Vet hitter and star out fielder, is also absent on business in Ketchikan. There's not much hope of him getting back before Sunday.
 Lowe probably will be called on to hurl tonight's game, leaving Junge to step into the breach for the third game.

TALE
 !. IS CONVINCING IN TREAT MENT
By JOHN SELBY

NEW YORK, Aug. i5.-As long as time goes on, writers will try to get the charm of the old south, and its problems, into print.
 It is a difficult assignment, as Stark Young doubtless learned when he wrote 80 Red The Rose (Scribners) The whole atmos- phere of the old south-the julep- lifting Colonel, the delicately grace full southern wife, the faithful serviter, the invading Yank-all has become stereotyped in the pub- lie mind.
 What is more sad than that, it has become stereotyped in writers minds as well. So that when MT. Young started, as he obviously did, to write a truthful tale having to do With the period immediately be- fore the Civil war, the war itself and the carpetbagging era there after, he must have found himself badly handicapped.
 He has partly overcome the ham, dicap by an almost fierce insist ence upon the individuality of his characters. These are, chiefly, the McGehees of ''Montrose," near Natchez, and their relatives, the Bedfcrds of "Portobello" in Louis jana across the Mississippi. The interlacing roots of the two clans touch many strange places; their activities in the story itself bring another large group of characters and places into the book.
 And the story itself is convinc- ing, and thus supports MT. Young's edifice very competently. If he has not written a different book, he has at least made an honest one that often is beautiful.

Stanley, the new head coach at
Delaware got off to a good start
last week when they journeyed to

demonstrated two points, the first
that the Blue and Gold is about
the best coached aggregation that
has represented Delaware for
years and second that Coach Stah-
ley has the squad in much better
physical condition and under bet
ter discipline than any Blue and
Gold team in recent years. Al
though handicapped with an un-
usually small squad, Stanley has
developed a team that Delaware
should feel proud of The first
home game will be played ON Fraz-
er Field, Newark, on Saturday,Oc-
tober 20, with Hampden-Sydney
and this should be a hard test for
the Blue and Gold as the southern
