0UARTER-FINALS PROMISE ACTION
 AT FOREST HILLS
Helen Jacobs Meets Eliza beth Ryan TO-day-Di-
 vOrcees Paired
United Press Sports Editor)


 Forest Hills, l.. l., Aug 16-(UP) The national women's tennis cham pionships, slumbering these many days promised to be awakened to-day as play entered the quar- ter-final round.
 So far the competition has run so mechanically true to form that the galleries have scarcely had provocation to break into "oh's" and "ahs". Tennis galleries do not like conditions of this sort since they leave them with noth ing more exciting to talk about than the width of the British players panties as compared with the native variety, or the possi bility of rain before the afternoon is out.
 The heart of the matter is that of the eight survivors, seven are seeded players, chunky Betty Nut hall of England, was one of these so chosen, but she didn't come close. For this reason only three of the four matches to-day are of an international variety. The three:
 Other Matches
 Sarah Palfrey of Brookline, Mass. No 2, in the domestic seed ing and possible champion, vs the pinkish Freda James, small est member of the English troup. Freda was seeded fourth among the foreigners.
 Helen Jacobs of Berkeley, Cal, the defending champion who is seeking her third consecutive title, vs Elizabeth Ryan, the former Californian, who is still technically an American but who has lived in London so long she was seeded No on the visitors select list.
 Carolin Babcock, raven-haired Los Angeles girl, third seeded American and another likely win ner, vs the pleasantly attractive Kay Summers, second seeded Bri- ton.
 Marital Match The fourth singles match is be- tween the divorcees of the field. 1t involves Mrs Dorothy Andrus of Stamford, Conn, who once was listed as Dorothy Andrus, later as Mrs Dorothy Andrus Burke and now as Mrs Dorothy Andrus. Her opponent is the Baroness Maud Levi of New York and Minden, New, who is the formey Baroness Giacomo Levi of Rome, and before that Maud Rosenbaum of Chicago. It was the baroness who upset Miss Nuthall.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-08-16

The findings are:
 First. The fight was substan- tially correct, at least according to the boxing rules of New York state.
 Second. The referee decided to halt the fight in the 11th round. owing to the condition of Cameras injured right foot, as documents, x-rays and other certificates of Dr Vinzenio Fani of Columbus hos pital show, the referee believing Camera was no longer able to de- fend himself, the referees opinion in this specific case being uncon- controllable (Sic).
 Low Blows Out
 "Third. Several irregularities committed by Baer during the fight were not given due consid- eration by the referee and judges in summing up the points, while low blows, it is clearly seen, were not considered since the rules of New York state do not consent to low blows when boxers are wear ing belt protection.
 "Fourth. The film shown in Eng land and Italy was not complete I in every round.
 Fifth. All reports purporting to discribe alleged violence and intimidation contributing to falsi- fy the outcome of the match must be excluded.
 Primo Was Game
 Sixth. Camera fought bravely, especially owing to the pain in his foot; however, he followed unwise tactics, contrary to the advice of those in his corner; the absence of persons in whom Camera had the greatest faith technically speak ing must have contributed to Car nera following the wrong school of boxing. Seventh. The International Boxing Union in the meantime has postponed publishing the results of the fight, as the match did not occur according to the exact rules of international regulation. Tt is hoped that all peace loving citizens throughout Italy. engaging : in publics debates remarking on who was the real winner of the worlds championship fight. will cease once and for all time"

FUN A-FISHlN
BY JIMMY DONAHUE (NEA Service Sports Writer)

Here are a few hints Which may help you in your fishing:
 One way to restore dry flies whose hackles and wings have be- come unsightly due to repeated use. is to steam them, holding them over a tea kettle and forcing the hackles and wings back into place with the hands. The steam brings back most of their original sheen, and sets them in their prop CT place.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-08-16

Weigh your fish when you catch him. If you don't. he's apt to lose considerably by the time you get back to your camp. A 10-pound pike will lose as much as 10 ounces in half day.
 When fishing with spinners in weedy water, it is best to use one with a long thin blade. These spin ners whirl around the shaft only a short distance from 1t. while the round blade spins very wide and is more likely to catch weeds.
 Tn fishing waters known to con tain both northern pike and mus kies, fish right at the edge of lily pads and weed beds for the pike. and go out further where the water drops off to a depth of from 10 to 20 feet for the lunge.
 In still fishing with warns, tic two or three thin pieces of red flannel below the eye, allowing them to dangle around the worm This acts as an attraction to the fish-although this corner hasn't tried the idea as yet.

If you find it difficult to hit a low iron shot. it is only necessary to play the ball back farther to- ward the right foot. The farther back the ball is played. the lower will be the shot and more distance with the iron.
 Note the position of the ball in regard to the right foot in the il- lustration. When the ball is played from this position. it is a simple matter to hit crisp, descending blow. and to take turf immediately after the ball is sent on its way.

ShOeWOrkerSStrike
Against Wage Cut

NEW Notwithstanding to accept
o rs per cent wage cut, 140 workers
Of the Kirchik and Beckerman
stitchdown shop came out on strike
Monday. Encouraged by the Boot
and Shoe Union, the bosses of this
shop broke their agreement with the
Industrial Union and locked out the
workers after announcing the cut.
The Boot g. Shoe Workers Union
was the chief aid to the boss in plan
ming this lockout. For the past two
weeks the Scab agents Of the defunct
Boot & Shoe Union have been recruit
ing scabs in anticipation of the pre-
sent situation.
The strike is one-hundred per cent
backed by the entire crew. Picketing
is going on in spite of terrorism. A
group of professional scabs with
knives attacked picketing demon
stration last night, but were defeated
by the workers.
Police arrested julius Crane, union
organizer on frame-up charges of
third degree assault. He was arrested
several blocks away from the scene
Of the melee. In spite of his denial
that he was present, he was dragged
to the police station and booked. He
is out on 5000 bail awaiting trial.
Two more workers have been ar
rested today on frame-up charges and
are also out on bail awaiting trial.

for Union Conditions

NEW YORK. - After the recent
naneuyerS of the N. r. A. against
the militant shoe strikers, workers
in several shops remained out on

A number Of the Board of Trade
shops settled on the shop committee
basis at the time of the N r. A.
decision. In few shops the work
ers went back expecting the N. R. A,
decision, against discrimination and
for the right to choose their union
to be carried out. The bosses never
lived up to this decision and are
attempting to force the scab Boot

on the workers.
The workers of the Meyer Brothers

Shoe workers are urged to helr
the strikers in their heroic fight.
