PACIFIC LEAGUE URGED TO
 TAKE IN NEW CITIES

Portland, Ore. (UP).--A realign- ment of the Pacific Coast League, under which two additional north- crn cities would be taken in, Is suggested by Bill Cissel, manager of the local club.
 Cissell believes the league ur- balanced at present, what with four clubs--the Missions. Seals, Oakland and Sacramento-operat- ing within si0O miles of San Fran cisco.
 "The people down there don't support Q winner" said Cissel. "On the other hand, Portland and Seattle drew exceptionally well. There Is only one afiswer-take the Mission and Sacramento franchises and move them to Vancouver, B. O., and Tacoma, Wash. Both cities are eager to support league ball."
 Portland drew l4s.00O fans in its last three weeks stay at home. Three times during that period they were forced to line the over- floN' crowd on the field, something. Cissell pointed out, none Of the California cities hes had to do for years. Seattle also enjoyed q pros- persu year, yet neither of the northern clubs vas aa actual wins neP.

SCHMIDT PROVES GRID SENSATION.
 AT OHIO STATE.
Football Boss is Ranking Coach of the Country;
 Basketball Aids Him
BY HARRY 0RAYsoN

Columbus, Oct. 3i-The great majority of football men and fol. lowers never had heard of Francis Albert Schmidt until he arrived at Ohio State last year, but it didn't take him long to gain their respect and confidence. ,
 Schmidt, 200 pounds of nervous energy from Texas Christian, caught the popular fancy, not only with winning teams, but with his explosive manner, plain-spoken per. sonAlity, and brilliant wit.
 The Ohio State faculty had 0 lit- tie difficulty getting used to schmitty's virile, he-nan language at first, but quickly accepted him as the campus leading figure. He probably is the most popular coach ever to hit Columbus Players and students consider him the last word in coaches.
 Because his clubs manufacture tremendous scores against com- paratively weak opposition, the Ohio State strategist has been tagged "Merciless." He is very hue man, nevertheless, and his players slave for him.
 Schmidt cusses his boys plenty, but they love 1t. They'd rather be cussed than complimented by him. The athlete who gets bawled out the most has good chance of starting the game.
 Schmidt gets along very well with newspapermen, but they've learned to keep Q tongue in their cheek when listening to him. He's apt to change his mind from one hour to the next. Called by telephone to give, c starting lineup for on official program, Schmidt named 10 men.
 For awhile, Mrs. Schmidt forbade the Ohio State mentor to drive the family car. There was danger of him wrapping himself and the bus around Q telephone pole while jot- ting down Q new play in an ever- present notebook.

Coach Schmidt Devotes
 l6 Hours . Day to Football

Schmidt, @ driver from away back who works l8 hours @ day, con- tinuaily thinks and talks football. He usually works in his office in his shirt sleeves. He welcomes viD- itors, but even though he's met them time and time again, he doesn't remember their. names.
 Schmidt has pet names for most of his boys, such as Bobo, Bozo, Leatherhead, and oil Can. He nev. CT runs out of nicknames or wise- cracks,
 Schmidt refuses to wear Q top- coat while sitting on the bench during Q game. He claims that he never notices the cold during the heat of battle.
 Schmidt whistles shrilly to attract the boys attention on the practice field. Although his style of play Is as wide open as the Texas plains, where his teams formerly roamed, he has mania to keep the ball on the ground, dammit"
 Schmidt usually forgets appoint. ments.
 A born salesman and after-dinner speaker, Schmidt could hire out to speak every night of the week throughout the year.
 His age seems to be Q delicate subject with Schmidt, but he's 70 or SO. He was star halfback at Nebraska in 1904 and '06. He was graduated from the law school there, but does not practice. He wears only bow ties,
 Basketball Knowledge
 Asset to Buckeye Boss
 schmidts first coaching assign ment of any importance was at the University of Tulsa, where he lost one game in the last four seasons of five-year reign before and after the war.
 He left Tulsa for Arkansas. where he had the reputation of getting the most out of his material for seven campaigns.
 With less talent than larger rivals, Schmidt won two Southwest Conference championships, tied for the title once, and finished second and third i've years at Texas Chris tian.
 The headman of the Buckeyes has been even more successful in basketball than he has in football.
 Football going basketball was right down Schmidt's alley. Ills knowledeg of the hoop game no doubt played a big part in his de- veloping. in less than two seasons, the finest set of ball handlers that such veteran and skillful opponents of the razzle dazzle as Bob zuppke and Bo McMillin ever saw.
 The huge stadium at Columbus demanded Q show. Schmidt gave Ohio State one, and mighty foot ball machine as well.

'CARNERA EVEN
 CHOICE TO WIN FROM NEUSEL
Clean Cut Victory May Bring Title Bout With
 BraddOck
By GEORGE KKRRsEY

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, Nov. i.--(Up)-primo Carnera, the Italian circus freak who was maneuvered into tho heavyweight title and then hrutally exposed as giant with . glass chin by Max Baer and Joe Louis, will try another comeback against Wal. ter Neusei of Germany in Q i0- round bout in Madison Square 0ar- den tonight before an expected crowd of iS,000. r
 It was only tour months ago that Carnera, broken -hearted after ab. sorbing on uilmerciful beaten ct Louis hands, sat on 0 stool in his dressing room under the stands ct Yankee Stadium and said he'd never fight again. When no re- turned to his native Italy his pass port was cancelled because fascist leaders considered him Q disgrace to his country.
 Another Chance
 But promises and plans are short- lived along fistic row, and here's Carnera back for more punishment Again he VOWS:
 q ween or Queet this time"
 Lou Soresi, Carnera's manager, insistS that the giant Italian Is sincere in his intention to hang up the gloves forever if he loses to the blond Teuton. But he hastens to add that Carnera believes he'll win and fight his way into match with either Heavyweight Champion James J. Braddock or Q return bat- tie with Joe Louis.
 If Carnera wins he might con. ceivably be built up by the Garden as an opponent for Braddock, pros vided there is hitch in negotia- tons for Q Braddock-Louis bout under the joint promotion of the Garden and the Twentieth Century club.
 Camera Is an even choice in the betting, largely because Neusel does not possess 0 punch. Tho bout is quite likely to 90 the limit. Neusei hos never lost Q fight in this country but neither has he scored any outstanding triumph. He scored i0-Tound decisions over Ray Impellittiere, King Levinsky and Tommy Loughran and fought Q draw with Matte Brown. Like Car- nera, the German has absorbed Q terrific beating in the past year, having been knocked out in eight rounds by Max schmeling ct Hana- burg.
 New Style
 Carnera in training has attempt- ed to change his style from the stand up type to that of Q low, charging, two-fisted puncher. The ambling Alp has never been any- thing but Q manufactured boxer, and 1t is doubtful if he can be changed into e rip-roaring fighter in e few weeks in training camp. His long, left jab, which won most of his on-the-level bouts for him, should still be his most effective weapon. If he hasn't that tonight, Neusel, c busy two-fister along the type of Ace Hudkins, is likely to pile up enough points to get the de. cision.
 The preliminaries, featuring six heayyweight bouts, may overshadow the man go. The Ground semi- final brings together Tony 0alento, the Newark nightstick, and Eddie Nader, promising New Yorker, Galento, with Q treacherous left hook. is hollering for Q shot at Joe Louis and may get his wish If he stops Nader. Max Marek, Chicago, who holds Q decision over LouisU in the amateurs, is matched with Bob Pastor, New York, in another G. rounder.

INCOME TAXES
SHOW GAIN Of
400 MILLION
Increase Over Last Year Laid
to Rise in Purchasing
Power of Masses
International News Service

With early returns showing
nearly a 400 million dollar in.
crease over last year, the Inter
nal Revenue Bureau today was
busily engaged in compiling in
come tax receipts.
Internal Revenue Commissioner
Guy r. Helvering already had
notified President Roosevelt that
returns up to last night showed
a 393 million dollar increase over
last year.
Mr.. Helvering attributed the in
crease to a rise in the purchasing
power of the masses. He said
"The encouraging thing about
it is that miscellaneous taxes,
which represent the buying
power Of the country, and in
come taxes, which represent
the earning power Of the ma
tion, are both up this year
over last"
President Roosevelt was among
the "last minute" ones to file
his return. He did not get around
to making out his income tax
statement until late Thursday
and turned it in yesterday.
The President also filed a pink
slip. Whether these will be made
public depends upon Senate &C.
ton on the House repeal measure.

an alliance either on initiation or
on forcing the Administration to
begin balancing the budget. Sena-
tor Wheeler CD of Montana
sponsored the initiation amend
ment, proposing to finance the
4,880-million-dollar program by is
suing new United States Treasury
notes, to be retired over a 30
year period.
Senator Townsend (R.) of Della
ware offered the budget amend
ment, providing that none of the
four -billion-dollar work appropria-
ton can be spent before the
Administration imposes taxes to
amortize the debt. 1t was difficult
to foresee an alliance between
these two apparently conflicting
camps.
The wage fight, which tied up
the bill for three weeks, passed
into history with scars on every
side. Friends of the McCarran
amendment were not so much cha
grined over defeat as they were
angered by the manner of their
defeat. They charged Senators
Wagner and La Toilette with "be-
traying labor" many asserting this
in the debate.
Pledged Finish Fight
There was resentment over the
fact that Senator Wagner, after
personally pledging his colleagues
and labor leaders to fight to
the finish" abandoned them only
after the Senate had limited de-
bate when an earlier announce
ment undoubtedly would have
provoked an outright filibuSter.
The Russell amendment, which
originated with Senator Wagner,
would force payment of prevail
ing wages on the construction OF
all new Federal buildings but
gives the President discretion to
fix all other work wages, so long
as he did not affect adversely"
prevailing wages. The McCarran
amendment would have forced
payment of prevailing wages on
all relief projects, while giving
the esident power to fix
monthly maximums even as low
as $50 a month.
