CERRIAN, acclaimed one of the
y leading welterweights in this sec
ton of the country, proved a will
ing, two-fiSted battler who'd beat q
rat-a-tat-tat on foeman's midsection
If allowed to do so. He did last night
for four rounds against Hughes, but
Frankie wised up in the nick of time
to spring a mild upset.
Employing q straight left jab in the
latter stages and occasionally sneak
ing over a long range right to the
face, Hughes finished calamity after
an early beating to win going away
against one Of the toughest custo-
mers yet imported here.
It was a rip-snorting battle Hughes
won, but the scrap was forced to share
chief attention with an equally dra-
matte skirmish between Phil Zwick
Of Cleveland and Benny Victor of
Philadelphia.
For two heats Zwick, the hardest
punching featherweight introduced in
the Capital since Benny Bass, gave
Victor what the ringworms call q
thorough going over" Twice in the
first round Victor shifted the resin,
once for a count of nine and again
for a five-count. In the second Benny
managed to stay of the floor, but at
the outset Of the third round he went
down for q nine-count and then
bobbed up NIain to catch q low blow
which felled him for keeps, but also
won for him the verdict on foul.
Referee Denny Hughes counted 10
over the PROSTATE, squirming Phila-
delphian when he last went down and
then turned Victor over to DR.. John L.
De Mayo, q boxing commission physi-
clan, who bore out the statements Of
Judges c. Carroll Dunn and Frank
Schuyler that Victor had been fouled.
After the examination it was an
nounced that Victor was the winner
by foul. He was taken to Emergency
Hospital for further examination.
Foulproof Cups Are Not.
TT WAS bitter blow to Zwick, who
was In the process of proving he
packs one Of the most wicked wal
lops seen here in q scrapper his
weight, but it also proved something
else, lie, that foulproof cups, which
were not worn by Washington's two
other foul victims-Petey Sarron and
Cary Wright-are not foolproof. Vic
tor, an examination disclosed, was
wearing the newest style foulproof
cup, but DR.. De Mayo's examination
disclosed that Benny, nevertheless,
was too badly hurt to lift another glove
last night.
In an eight-round home town tus-
sic which failed to live up to expecta-
tions. Cary Wright outpunched Roy
Manley in every round except two to
earn an unanimous verdict, and in. a
six-round bout which proved disap-
pointing from spectators stand

fumbled Sammy Britt. This decision
also was unanimous.

 SURE OF NFIELD
 POST WITH TANKS
Lazzeri, CrOsetti to Have Opposition Two Out
 For SeWell'S Job

New York, Jan 25--(UP)--When the New York Yankees hit tho comeback trail this season, the cus- toners probably will see brand new infield combination.
 Indications of infield organiza- ton feature the Yanks' 1884 roster issued to-day. It lists 3l players. of whom the pitchers and cntchers will report at St Petersburg for training on March 4, and the rest on March II.
 How It Stands
 Lou Gchrig will be back nt first base, but the other infield positions will be fought for. Don Hcffner from Baltimore, ono of the few ewcomers, will battle for second base with veteran Tony LhZzeri. and Jack Salzgavcr, recalled from Newark, will compete for the third base post vacated by ancient Joey SewclI. The latter Is now a Yan. kee coach.
 | Bob Rolfe Is back from Newark for another try for the shortstoI Job, and he is expected to give Frank Crosetti quite n tussle. | Four pitchers have been recalled for another tryout: Hormidas Aubt of Atlanta: Jimmy Deshons oi Nowar; Marvin Duke of Newark and Johnny Murphy of Newrak In addition there newcomers will try for pitchcing berths: Floyd Ncwkirk Of St Paul; Harry Smythe of Baltimore and Vito Tamulis of Binghamton.

ROSS PROVESHIS RIGHT TO CHANCE | AT WELTER CROWN
Champ Takes Eight of Ten Rounds From PetrOlle-
 McLarnin Wanted
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Stan Correspondcnt)


 New York. Jan 25-(PU)-That "dream fighter'' of a lightweight champion, Barney Ross. to-day stood out as undisputed challenger for the welterweight crown. He swashed into the welter throne room last night when he battered game old Billy Petrolle into retire. fnent.
 If ever a man knew he was licked, 1t was the ancient Fargo Express" at tho end of those 10 rounds in the Coliseum. More than 12,00O saw the curtain descend on a glorious fighting career. It was significant battle. It boosted Ross to q new pinnacle. It marked flnis for Petrolle. It proved that the apparently dead fight game in New York was indeed q lively corpse as 5000 potential cus- toners were turned away. Good Loser
 sitting on rubbing table fin his dressing room---both eyes swollen purple, lips puffed and bleeding PetrolIe announced that he was hanging up his gloves for good. His bruised face achieved rueful smile in replying to question about Rogs' ability.
 Did you ever see dream fight ing?" he asked. "Well I dld-that ls when Barney didn't nave that left glove in front of my face. That boy is a marvel. He's got everyA thing. He'll be Hghtwelght cham pion until he's as old as I am, if he doesn't grow out of the divi- sion."
 Could Petrolle have beaten him a couple of years ago? Hc didn't know. But he did know he was too old to fight top-notcherS any more. He didn't want to take the customers money under false pre-. lenses. He couldn't give them q run for their money. So he was going homo to Duluth and be a business man. Ills manager, Jack Hurley, snid Billy is worth moro than $200. 900, invested in bonds. real estate and business enter prises.
 Ross and his managers, Sam Plan and Art Winch, were Jubilant. Plan said he would start gunning in earnest for a crack at Jimmy McLarnin's 147-pound title. He said he would guarantee McLar- min $3b,000.
 Convincing
 Ross was virtually unmarked. He won eight of the 10 rounds. The sixth was even, and Petrolles des- Lerate rally won tho ninth.
 Ross won close decision over Billy at Chicago last March. Pet rolle claimed then that scaling down to 138 pounds had weakened him. Last night the Exprsss scaled Al 1-2; Ross 136 3-4. Barney's 135-pound title was not at stake. Tho champion not only outboxed PetrOlIc, but he Out-fought him. He had the better of almost every exchange, driving the veteran across the ring tiIne and again petrolle's legs were gone. He lacked tho fo0twOrk and spring with which he used to move in Conc was tllc deadly double-sIliSi from which he could uncoil and land left hooks to the body. His heart was there, and his punch was there, but his feet couldn't bring him into hitting rnDgc.

Brooklyn "Y'
 Results

As a result of their 34-16 win over the speedboys last night the Reymond Hillies went into tic for first place with the Shadows in the Brooklyn Y Interclub league. The first round ended last night and as a result of last nights game the Shadows and Hillies will meet next week to decide the winner of the first round.
 After taking a bad beating the night before from the Boys club Cadets, tho Hiliies came back strong last night and with Bannon and Sullivan having a little moro luck with their shots last night than they did against the Cadets the doughboys piled up an early lead and tho spcedboys never threatened after the first two min utcs of play. Berardi was the only player on the losing team to solve the defense of the Hillies and he was high scorer for tho losers. Last nights win was the first the Hillles hayes cored over the Speed boys in threo years. The box score was as follows:
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-01-25
though Roy Fox was tho winner of tho weekly high single with c score of 130.

-:-
 A very close match was witnesS- cd between tho stanton and Reilly teams, with tho East Finders get ting all tho breaks, winning three games by 2, 6, and 8 pins respect lveIy. Kind of tough on Jack Reilly, who Ina dtwo men absent and yet manage to hit team over- age in every game. Jack Pracny and Leaman Harvey, were the big pointgetters for tho winners.
 Joe Jarlett ia beginning to show his old time form again, demon strating last week against tho Hnr- pin team. All games were very dos sicive being won by over fifty pins, with the "Townies" taking final game and pinfall after q split In first two.
 Good steady bowling by all the members of the Cahill team noted Verriker's Paintmeh, who were c little off form.
 Jim McMohan and Fred Miller paved tho way for G three point wi nfor the Chase team after they had lost the first game to Jim Flanagan. McMahan'B average has been climbing steadily and has been big factor in the tehm's climb to prize division.
 Roy Fox wus the hero of the Cooke team last week to start them back in tho win column. After hln team had lost first game, Roy knocked off his f30 and then Q 1i6 to settle these other two games and also take pinfall.
 The Beor Barons suffered m nd. dltionl handicap In absntees. but were abie to take two games and pinfali from the Plumbers and would have captured fourth point except for marks made by Jim Walker, Pclletier. and Beiville In the 10th box.

The Cambridge university will not sweep It's gridiron house clean at the Green has done and the Blue Is about to do--although its rec ord in recent years has been equ- ally poor.
 Head Coach Eddie Casey, an all-American halfback in his day, has been told to keep his hand on the wheel of the Harvard football ship for at least another seasons schedule. With one good year and two dismal ones behind him, he has been given another vote Of confidence and told to go out and get himself a new batch of assist ants.
 One Worthy
 Only Wesley Fesier, Onetirne Ohio State star, who was kicking and passing coach last fall, has been retained on tho Casey corps. Backheld Coach Nils Nelson, End Coach Eddie Bradford, and Line Coach Charley Bradford and John (Pooch) Donovan will not return. Because of a scarcity of Harv' ard graduates of tested coaching ability 1t was thought Casey would scan the ranks of Outsiders" even as Dartmouth and Yale, in his quest for mates for himself and Feslcr, first non-graduate on the Harvard staff.
 Hard Work
 One difficulty in the task con- fronting Casey is that he can offer his new assistants only onc-year contracts. Tho importance Of sc- curing staunch aides for the 1934 campaign may be seen from the Harvard schedule, which lists games with Bates. Brown, Holy Cross, Dartmouth, Princeton, West Point, New Hampshire and Yale. The Ave games from Brown through West Point come on suc- | cessive Saturdays, tho thoughest assignment any Harvard team hns had to face in many years. Casey expects to be able to reveal his complete coaching lineup, within few weeks. It was believed how ever, that 1t would not be announ- ccd offlcialiy until the March meet ing of the Harvard athletic council.

distilled from the crystal-clear waters
of Michigan spring will ride q ton
Of instruments. The gondola WIN be, in
effect, a floating laboratory. in which
will be assembled the most unusual
assortment of scientific instruments ever
raised on the earth. Many of the de-
vices viii be provided with electric
brains" and Photographic eyes" In
these instruments lies the reason for
the coming night.
Many Of the instruments were built
at the Air Corps Materiel Division,
Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio, under the
personal supervision Of Capt Stevens,
who designed some Of them himself.
Since Capt. Stevens Is one Of the fore
most aerial photographers in the
world, photography naturally Is being
cast for important roles ~ detective,
recorder and labor saver in the strat0-
sphere work. ag@
An important piece Of the apparatus
Is . large aerial camera that viii rest
in the bottom of the gondola with its
lens-ring mounted directly into an air
tight opening In the metal shell. A
motor-driven chain of gears auto
matically will make Photographic ex-
posures, straight down, Every minute
and a half. Never before has such q
large camera been operated automat-
ically. The photographs will be 7xs
inches in size and, at the top of the
flight, each exposure will show an area
of $50 square miles of the earth's sur
face. Sufficient film will be carried for
$50 exposures and this great roll will be
turned into place automatically for sue
cessive exposures.
From these photographs later mathe-
NAUTICAL calculations will show just how
high the balloon was at time Of ex-
posture. These results will be checked
against barometer readings and will be
used to construct the most accurate alti-
tude tables ever made available for avi-
ators. The present tables are based
wholly on observations at lower levels.
At the same time the master mech
anism makes exposures by the great
vertical camera it will set of three
other small cameras inside the gondola
by means OF electric solenoids to record
instrument readings. These small
cameras, each 80 seconds, will read
IL instruments, among them two
barometers, compass and interior
thermometer, two outside thermometers
and a group of spirit levels and dials
showing brightness of sunlight and sky
light, with watch face to record time
in each group Of instruments.
Two cleverly constructed units will be
mounted on long arms outside the gon-
dola to indicate the temperature of the
outside air. Copper wires almost as fine
as human hair are wound on a skeleton
cone to form q resistance coil, the So
ciety explained. This coil Is inclosed
in tube within q tube to shield It from
sunlight The two units viii be held
