 IN GAM E TONIGHT

The feathers will fly at Wash. ington park tonight when the Re- porters, undefeated softball team, clash with Jack Ryan's Patent Button array beginning at 6 o'- clock. The scribes, contrary to their other engagements, will not ride donkeys but will present their usual coloPful exhibition just the same. There is no question but what H. Persimmon McGrath's newsinen will romp in on the long end of a big score for they acc cepted the contest for practice more than anything else. The po- lice department team, rivals of the scribes next week are using the Green to drill every night this week.
 Manager Ryan of the Buttoners announced this morning that his team will consist of Frank LaRoss. catcher; Marty Egan, pitcher; Vim cent Sullivan, first base; MT. Egan, second base; Maurice Meeney, third base; Richard Capaldo. short stop; Charles Curtis roaming field f; Russo, left field; Tony Capaldo, center field; Charles Maxwell, right field and several of the gentlemen from the various departments in the factory who believe they will be a match for the scribes.
 The newsmen will show their usual lineup with Ambrose scully receiving the offerings of mounds man Radio Ray, or come in Ray Fitzpatrick, Jimmy Calvin, George Dillon, Jimmy Gladney, Eddie Bowling, Chick Errico, Johnny Wrenn, Joey Evans, MT. McGrath. Buster" Coates, John Fitzgerald, Bill Moriarty, William T. Earring. ton. city editor, and John A. Cluney. One of the almost unbe. iievable features of this lineup Is that none of the boys receive re- muneration.

PHANTOM" M. GIBBONS
 SCHOOLS SON FOR A
 BATTLE WITH LOUIS
St. Paul Ring Favorite of Years Ago Expects Jack Gibbons to Be National Rival of Negro
 in Two Years

Pardon the parental enthusi. asm, but Jack has everything in every department, and although he is only 22 and comparatively inexperienced, he Is perfect super-fighting machine, ready for the best men of his weight in the world" beamed Mike.
 Jack Gibbons, an all-round ath- lete at Cretin High of St. Paul and Detroit University, won a middleweight Col en Gloves championship in 1882. Since turn. ing professional on November II, 19S2. this real thoroughbred of pugilism has won 52 consecutive contests, 1e by knockouts.
 Heavyweight Title
 Gibbons Objective
 Young Gibbons most recent vic- tory was scored over Frankie Bat taglia of Winnipeg, one of the hardes hitting and best middle- weights in the world. :
 Battaglia failed to win a round in 10 from Gibbons when they fought before the largest crowd that ever saw a boxing match in Minnesota at Lexington Park, St. Paul, last month. Al Diamond, solly Dukelsky, Kid Leonard, and Jimmy Delmont are among the better boys repelled by Gibbons.
 Jack Gibbons now weighs 165 pounds and stands a half inch above 6 feet. He has the frame to carry much additional weight.
 Jack still can do 160 pounds, and Twin Cities promoters are asking Teddy Yarosz to give him a crack at the middleweight wreath.
 But Jack Gibbons real objec- tive Is the heavyweight titie,, for which his uncle, Tom, boxed Jack Dempsey at Shelby in 1s2s." sad Mike Gibbons. "The next 12 months will be devoted to build- ing Jack up to that point"
 The talk veered to Louis when l asked Mike if 1t ever struck him that Jack might box the Brown Bomber some day.
 T formed my opinion as to Jacks future on the basis of piled Mike. "At Jackshrdlu3JP Toms and my experience" re- piled Mike. "At Jacks age, Tom Gibbons weighed about 1855. When I was Jacks age, I weighed about 13s and at maturity sealed 155.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-08-26
Retains Speed Taking On Weight Gradually

T am positive that Jack will come in at 1855 or 190 pounds in less than two years. I am glad he is not taking on weight too rapidly because he is going to re- tain his speed by taking 1t on gradually"
 Mike Gibbons met Louis in Chicago last winter, but has never seen him in the ring or gym nasium, except in pictures. Jack Gibbons and his older brother. Bob. saw Louis box in Chicago last winter, however, and gave their dad considerable informa- tion about the pulverizing puncher of Detroit.
 T saw the pictures of Louis fight with King Levinsky, and Joe impresses me mostly -as a great hitter" explained Mike. T un. derstand that he boxes well, but down in history as a great boxer He is entirely too flat-footed, and in my opinion, does not compafe with men like Sam Langford and Jack Johnson.
 "I believe taht the reason Louis stands out so prominently at thil time is because of the very de. cided lack of good heavyweights never have actually seen him ir action. however, and am merely passing quick opinion"
 Mike ascertain that Jack Gib' hons will stand up. and it will bs interesting to watch the develop ment of his splendid son.
 ''In all my time as combatant manager, and instructor, have never seen a boxer who could set a punch or movement being exc cuted by an opponent and mako his own move quicker than Jacl Gibbons" concluded the old St Paul Phantom. with pardonabl' pride.

Mining machinery, gas shovel, and possibly four trucks, are destin- ed for, Tin City, and are now aboard the s. S. Northwind of the Arctic Transport Company, which sailed from Seattle the other day.
 They are consigned to the Ameri- can Tin Fields Inc. of Seattle, and will be discharged at Tin City when the vessel arrives.
 Last years surveys of property were made along Cape Creek and approximately a mile and half of tin bearing ground was lined up. For merly it was the property of George D. Schofeld Sr., and the late Tom Petersen of Teller. It is now con: trolled by the American Tin Fields Inc, which will carry on operations there this summer according to the reports received in Nome.
 A separation or conversion mill is to be constructed near Boring Sea and water pumped to the mill. The tin gravel is to be brought to the mill by trucks, with the gas shovel digging it out of the ground.
 This is but one of the new mining ventures coming to Seward Penin- sula mining section this summer. In fact, this procedure of mining ras never before been used in this sec ton, but according to the informa- tion received, there are better than fair chances of making a complete success of it.

TAYLOR IN ROLE RISKS HIS
 LIFE TO EXPOSE PLOT

Kent Taylor, Lona Andre, Irving Pichel, Gail Patrick and Warren Hymer play the leading roles in. Zane Greys The Mysterious Rider, an action-romance of the West which comes to the Dream Theatre Friday night.
 Taylor plays the role of hard-riding straight shooting, lariat rancher, devoted to his land and re- spected by his neighbors, whose leader he is. When Pichel, an un scrupulous lawyer, discovers that the valuable land in the valley has never been legally transferred to its present owners, and buys the original grant, it is Taylor who is entrusted with the money the ran chers raise to legalize their claim.
 But when Pichel learns that a powerful financier will give him more money for the claim, he craft fly accepts Taylors funds and con- trives to make it appear that the latter has absconded with them. Taylor is tossed into jail, but he es- capes to risk his own life in saving his fellow -ranchers.

STEAMFITTERS ARE AFFECTED BY
 ASSEMBLY BILL
If Passed They Have to Get Special License;
 Pass Examination

Steamfitters in Waterbury and in the state as a whole will be re- qujred to obtain a special license and will have to pass an examina- ton at the hands of a commission appointed by Governor Wilbur l.. Cross under the provisions of bill which will be heard next Thurs day before the labor committee of the legislature. It is figured that between fifty and 60 steamfitters in, the city will be affected by passage of such an act. At the present time there is no local ordinance cover ing steamftters. Plumbers and their. helpers. are supervised. or course, by Plumbing Inspector James Walker, who is connected with the, city engineering depart ment. .a.
 Representative Anthony Tclesca of Torrington Is the author of the bill licensing the steamfitters. The bill proposes that the governor ap-. point a licensing commission con- sisting of one master steamntter, consulting engineer.
 This commission would have the power to pass on all city tnspec- tors. license the, steamfitters and lay down rules governing the con duct of the steamfitting business. In view of the fact that the bill. If passed, would affect a very large number of tradesmen in the state. Thursday's hearing Is expected to be largely attended.
 Representative Eugene Lam phier of Watertown Is member of the committee on labor. 1t Is understood that it is the desire of many steamfitters to have a lic-- ensing board set, up so that 1t will aid in carrying out and enforcing a business code. -.
