INTO immediate action his newest
plan to lead the country to social
betterment-a S50O0O,00O program

tween 16 and '25 and a chance to
learn a trade and work in private
industry to aid them in gaining
high school. college and post
graduate educations, and to formu-
late their own wOrk-relief projects.

Mr.. Roosevelts determination that
we shall do something for the ma
tion's unemployed youth because we
can i'll afford to lose the skill and
emergency Of these young men and
women"
Charles Edison, industrial member
of the NRA advisory council and
son of the late inventor, endorsed
the program, saying:
CAS- youth of today is the hope OF

TENNIS STAR
PREPARES To
FIGHT DUEL

LONDON. June 81. UP) - Jean
Borotra, Basque tennis star, is rea-
dy to bounce bullets off Didier
Poulain, Paris sports writer, just
as he bounces tennis balls off his
racquet, he Indicated today.
An acceptance of Poulain's chal-
lenge to a duel was on its way to
Paris by registered mail. The next
step is for the seconds to meet and
decide first, whether there are real
grounds for a duel and then, If
one is justified, to name the place,
the time and the weapons.
Borotra received Poulain's chal-
lenge yesterday from the writer's
seconds, Jean Joseph Renaud, we'll
known fencer, and jacques Goddet,
co-director of the Paris sports
newspaper L'Auto, of which Poul-
ain is tennis expert.
The challenge came by registered
mail TO Borotra, who has been
playing in the all English tennis
tournament at Wimbledon, and he
replied at once, naming as his Sec
onds Rene Lacoste, the great tennis
ace, and General Alvin of the
French army, former commandant
Of the army's polytechnique school,
Borotra said he had fenced only
a few times but that, as he pro-
badly would have the choice of
weapons as the challenged party,
ne might choose pistols.
The duel had its inception in ar
ticles by Poulain criticizing Boro-
ira for playing in the singles tour
nament here but not playing in the
singles on the French Davis cup
team. Borotra retorted in a letter
published in L'Auto in which he
accused Poulain of bad faith and
personal hostility.

them had not been given an exam
ination because a civil service list
already existed for their line of

NEW YORK, June 27.-The ST.

be highly interesting to know just
what it was) will arrive back in
our midst the night they hoist Joe
Louis and Max Baer into the same
ring, and turn EN- loose.
The night isn't likely TO be long
in arriving, either, for Mike ia
cobs of the Twentieth Century
Sporting club has opened negotia-
tions for such a business, and when
Mike steps out of his office (con-
sisting chiefly of any bustling
street corner in the roaring for
ties) and starts negotiating. ne
really negotiates.
The only hitch in the plans to pit
the butterfly butcher boy against
the brown bomber in September, as
1 understand it, is the condition of
Baer's hands. There is a great deal
of mystery, it seems, about MaX's
fists. He says they are broken to
bits, and so tender he scarcely
dares to wave toodle-oo to a blonde
coll across the eance floor. Op-
posed to him are q coVey of COM
petent surgeons ard a roomful of
X-ray machines. The doctors say
(and the impartial machines bear
them OUT that the bones Of his
fists are as solid as those in his
head. Which, if true, means they're
100 per cent solid.
If Baer can be convinced his
weapons are okay he'll sign for
Louis What a sweetheart that
would be! I'm figuring, of course,
on the real Baer, and not the love-
lorn, clowning oaf who stood idly
by and allowed Jimmy Braddoek
to lift his heavyweight champion
ship. The Baer I'm thinking about
is the vicious, untamed animal who
hammered frankie Campbell into
insensibility as he swung helpless
in the ropes; who went 20 slaugh-

the furnace heat of Reno, and who
could have gone 20 more; who
came wadjng from his corner
against Schmeling, took the Teu-
tons Sunday punch in the middle
of the face and, with tears running
from his eyes, proceeded to club
him down; and who had Carnera
up and down like an elevator
1t would be another Pickett's
charge while it lasted. And it
wouldn't last long. It would be
short, hot and sweet. Baer, even
though he starts getting tough
where. the other boys leave off,
wouldn't take more than one or
two of Louis depth bomb rights
and lefts without sitting down.
That Louis, gentlemen, throws a
punch-a wicked punch. He'll take
the top off your head with either
hand.
Baer, while he punches entirely
differently from Louis, can still lay
one on you. That round-house
curve right of his, thrown from
point somewhere back of first base,
isn't a graceful thing but it's cob
blestone when it lights.
Would it ever light on Louis?
And how would Joe act if it did?
Nobody knows the answer, and
you'll never convince me that there
aren't 10000 curious customers
ready to pay q million dollars to

CUT IN HOURS

Suggestion of officials of the
Bartenders Union, "Old Local

to the late Restaurant Code of

regular hours for employees of

met with sympathy from mem
bers of the District Alcoholic
Beverage Control Board today.
However, members of the board
pointed out that the authority
to make such rules and regula-
tions was vested IN the District
Commissioners. Board members
suggested that a more expedient
method of regulating hours would
be to have the problem solved
by the industry itself.
Charles E.. Sands, executive
secretary of the union, informed
the board that complaints had
been received liquor store EN-.
ployes had been forced to work
long hours and seven days a

Earlier today Albania, Italy's

to cut off Italy's supply of naval
fuel oil, most of which now comes
from the Soviet Union.

This leaves so nations on that
