REVISED VETERAN
AID PLAN PUSHED
Eeqion Calls Hines Estimate
of $113,000,000 Cost
Trick Statement.
" the Associated Press.

" the Associated fIeSS.
The American Legion today sought
further legislative support for revised
program in aid Of veterans, and at the
ton placed upon 1t by the Veteran
Bureau as a trick statement"
This assertion, in a special Legion
bulletin. followed an estimate by Gen.
Frank T. Hines, Veterans Adminlstra .
tor, that the proposed program would
cost around $113200,000 year. Ed
ward A. Hayes Legion national COM
mander, asserted earlier 'it cannot cost
more than S80,000000 year"
The revised Legion program. calling
for increased payments and hberallzed
disqualification, has been assured the
support of Senate Republicans. 1t was
reintroduced as new measure yester-
day by Senator Reed, Republican, OF
Pennsylvania.
$4,000, O,00O, 900 Error" Recalled.
In a statement against the Veterans
administrator estimates, Hayes said:
Certainly every official of the Legion
is familiar with the $4,000, ,0000 600 error
which Gen. Hines made year ago.
Certainly we must not permit any ad-
ditional inaccurate statements coming
from Gen. Hines or any other source
to cause our Senators and Representa-
tiyes to believe that the Legion's four
point plan should not be supported;
THE measure as redrafted," the state
nent by HAYES explained, cannot cost
more than S8O,0O0,000 a year. and In
our opinion will not cost more tnan
SOS 900, 900 a year. 1t does not repeal
the economy act. nor does IL restore
non n-service- disability pay
ments."
The revision was made necessary,
Hayes added, to make certain the
Interpretation of the provisions OF the
bill covering the four-point program
would neither increase nor decrease
payments for actual vice-connected
disability, as in existence prior to the
economy act"
Certain Sections Redrafted.
.The Legion" he said, desires that
the exact meaning Of all Of the PROV,
sions of our bill be SO clearly dehned
that the possibility of their mlscon-
struction will be eliminated entTeiy-
FOR this reason, certain sections nave
been redrafted in language which we
hope all will understand and agree
upon. The bill would still fulfill the
four points of our moderate and con-
structive program, which are:
Restore service-connected disability
with certain exceptions, as 1t existed
before the economy act.
Restore disqualification for veterans
unable to pay for it.
Restore the same money payments
for service connected disability.
Provide pensions for widows and
orphans in need, under the same con-
ditions and rates provided for the
Spanish War under the
economy act"

TO-DAY,S SPORT PARADE

On that occasion Rosenbloom opened the door of his apartment to find the windows open and cur tains thrown back. thus admitting the two things he considers fatal ito good health-sunshine and fresh air.
 "What are you up to, you dou- ble-crosser Maxie roared at the houseboy, a partly pacifled igarote named Cipriano Balachrista. Try ing to cost me my cham-peenship, eh? Snatch them windows down; shut those curtains! The next thing I know you'll be sweeping and dusting out the joint!"
 Cipriano Balachrista made no hours before Rosenbloom was windows, drew the blinds. He scattered those little night-club hammers and empty beer bottles on the table. And he puffed at cheap cigars and cigarettes until the room could have doubled for one of Tex Guinan's old pre-re- peal places. Then he waited.
 Finally Maxie strode down the hall and opened the door.
 A billowing wave of stale to- bacco smoke engulfed him.
 His face beamed, and for a min ute or two he stood there, inhal- ing deep draughts of the smoke screen.
 Boy. that's grand!," he exulted. HAin't if Qnnd fn ha hnnnofp
 Rosenbloom, after months of hedge-hopping from state to state, is back in New York to prepare for the defense of his 175-pound title against Bob Olin in Madison Square Garden. November 16. Ac- cording to his manager, Frank Bachman, Maxie has laid out a strenuous training program for himself.
 Starting tomorrow he will get in bed each night sharply at day. break.
 Maybe a little before day. break" Bachman said. He don't wanna take no chances on the sun catching him out in the open.
 He will sleep from dawn until mid-afternoon. Awaking, Rosen- bloom will pose in front of a fulI- length mirror and practice dance steps until sundown.
 Six p. to 8 p. m. vii lbe devoted to breakfast.
 From 8 until midnight, he will sharpen his eyesight by watching the dice roll and trying to spot the numbers, at Joe's place. He maye also roll few himself to strengthen his right and put an edge on his timing.
 The hours between midnight and dawn will be devoted to improving his footwork. He will alternate be- tween the Casino Farce and the Tictoc. A brisk trot through Cen tral Park behind milk wagon will end each days work.

Strangely, this pair is playing second fiddle to three star tens arranged by Promoter Jimmy
 Nevertheless, the so-called gal- lery gods are wagering all they can borrow and beg on their idols. At this writing Del Genio rules to 5 choice. It may be even money, take your pick, before ring times or 6 to 5 in Badami's favor it. is re- ported a small fortune of money will back the Bronxite of the boards.
 WeIl-Matched
 Preceding this encounter John- ston will show Harry Dublinsky, of Chicago, with Frankie Klick. of California. The former holds decision over Tony Canzoneri and four years ago fought ten rounds to a draw with Barney Ross. Klick, too, held champion Ross to a ten round draw in Los Angeles last March.
 In the second ten Young Peter Jackson, the most talked of Negro lightweight since the days of Joe Cans, will make his New York debut paired with the rough. tough little Tony Falco. of Phila- adelphia. Jackson must hurdle the Falco assignment to earn some more shots in the Garden. John ston has him signed for three more scraps. Fa1so is unbeaten in three starts in the big arena. Ed- die Cool, another Philadelphian, who recently knocked out Eddie Ran, will swap punches with Al Roth, of the Bronx, who is com siderable of scrapper.
 What a Boy
 Del Genio is one of the best prospects developed in New York in years. He can make 133 pounds. In another year the prediction IS made the young Italian will ascend the dizzy heights. He thrilled 8 large crowd at Dyckman Oval last summer with the workmanlike manner with which he trounced Johnny Bonito. Badami, who Is also of Italian birth, has been go- ing like a house on fire. Johnston has considerable trouble making the match, and he figures his ef- forts will be rewarded with one of the greatest fights between little men seen since the never-to-be-for- gotten Joe Lynch-Jack Sharkey thriller.

COLLEGE WRITERS
 FRIENDLY AGAIN AFTER MANY YEARS
Harvard and Princeton Magazines Pleasant
 Before Big Game

Cambridge, Mass, Nov 1.-(UP) The Harvard Lampoon and the Princeton Tiger, comic magazines of the two universities which re- new football relations Saturday, kissed typographically today to prove that all was forgiven if not forgotten.
 The palsy-walsy spirit has gone so far that they were secretly "married'' to celebrate the gridfron renewal. but they won't show off before the home folks until Satur- day at Harvard Stadium.
 Even the neutral Yale Record enters the picture and the theme song is "The Big Three Pigs happy, harmless pigs.
 All the fuss, of course, is that the editors of the Lampoon and the Tiger have collaborated for the first time in a joint issue of their monthly comics.
 All Together
 After much pickering, editors of the Yale humorous monthly, al- though they haven't forgotten the dognaping of their mascot, Hand some Dan II, by Lampoon editors a yCdI dSo, nave DcSH pIcNdlicu upOLi to contribute to the joint effort.
 Back in 1926, it was the Lam- poon whose barbed literary shafts reflected the feelings of Harvard men that Princeton was playing dirty" football. The day eight years ago that Princeton lashed Harvard, 12 to o. Lampy appeared with a cartoon showing two pigs wallowing around in the mire and one was saying to the other. Come brother, let us root for our Princeton team" Subsequently the two members of the Big Three severed football relations.
 Everything has been patched up and the two teams meet again Sat urday.
 The joint issue of the Lampoon and the Tiger. with helping hand from the Yale Record, is in com- memoration of the renewal. The pig angle is brought to life again. but it's all in fun this time.

L. P. BOWLING BALLYHOO

Entering the seventh week of bowling, we find the L. I. P. league running true to form. Three teams are now tied for first place. and four teams locked in second place. What league! What teams! Such excitement! It's CO., lossal, unbelievable, yet true.
 Captain Jenusaitis shows very unsteady team by losing the first game by a score of 545-627, a diff ference of S2 pins, and then com ing back in the second game with a SAP score. an increase of 97 pins. What kind of pep talk do you give the boys, Sheriff?
 Joey Grables' jump from 82 to 124 was the outstanding bowler for the sheriff's team. The look on Johnny Yanayich's pan was a treat when he bowled an 86 score after such bowling in the first two games 114-129.
 Delinks claims that justice was buried when the committee gave him Rice and Mendle. Tommy was heard to remark that he would rather have that fellow average instead. He is also figuring on changing his anchor man, who fell down in two games by missing a lone pin spare in both. where only four pins meant the difference in the won and lost column.
 It does not seem possible that a man of such brawn and intellect as Dan Stokes should be left wait ing for train at Grand Central. If the train resembled a "BeBer Garden, Dan would never have missed it. How about it, boys?
 Glancing up and down the score board, we find that ever faithful servant, Average, bowled better than those so-called good pin top pers, such as Mazaika S1, Bronsky 76, Palzy Jacobs "A. H. Balanda 82, Bruzas S4, Shukaitis S2, Stan kevich 76, Grables S2, Drevinskas 81, and to make a perfect night of 1t, he beat Al Rice and J.. Stokes three games. What man!
 | J. Danisavage with 143-124-123 for a total of 390 looked good. but his team failed to win game. What jinx follows you, John?

Not that the high school team is n cornmercialized proposition, for no one who follows the team be- lieves that it is. The pint is that the Athletic Association is in for another financial kicking around ii fans continue to contribute nothing but their time an dmoral support to the success of the high school lads, who have a good team tnls season that is anxious to make the best showing possible before the home folks and is doing pretty good job of it.
 Costs Money
 The average football fan, who enjoys watching a high school game would be more than little surprised to know the cost of stag ing the contest for his enjoyment as well as to foster athletic spirit and sportsmanship among the high school boys. There's a guarantee to the visiting team to be paid, three officials, police protection and other little odds and ends that takes good hard cash, to say noth- ing of medical attention and equip ment for the players, the latter of which is, of course, the largest single item of expense.
 Same Problem
 Wilby's team is in much the same situation for there is a foot ball dance" to be run next We'd nesday evening, which means that the Athletic Association up there is trying to raise a few dollars to pay it's bills in any legitimate man. ner that 1t can. The Crosby-W1l- by game Thanksgiving morning should be a hummer, if the teams do not have to pawn their equip ment in the meantime to meet the payments due on it, so that the game can be played as scheduled.
 With a crackerjack game booked for Saturday featuring Hartford high and Crosby, every effort will be made to appeal to the sporting instincts of those who continue to Jingle their money while watching the kids play their hearts out just for the sake of playing. There's young Tony DeSantis, Crosby line man who suffered a dislocated shoulder in the Torrington game, for instance. Medical eXpenseof such a nature is probable every game the team plays, for no one is infallible to injury. In addition to losing $40 in putting on the Torrington game, the treatment for DeSantis will have to be paid for. In the meantime, sporting goods houses have bills against the school two years old.
 The Crosby-Wilby game is the only revenue now apparent from which ALL expenses must be met and that is impossible!
 An average of ten cents per fan would take care of everything. As the situation now stands the strongest financial supporters to the high school games are the students themselves and their par ents themselves and their parents, who the latetr cannot atetnd the contests. Waterbury can't afford to lose high school football, for the sake of the clean and virile youngsters who play the game and are an integral part of the best social status of our community.
 Come on fans! KICK IN! A dime will do it.
