Chalk up another victory for the
city manager plan. Trenton, N. j.,
voted on Tuesday TO do away with
the commission form of government.
to which it bad chung for nearly q
quarter of a century, and adopt .he
device which has been sc successfuf
in Cincinnati. The five commission
ers will be succeeded by Muniei-
pal Council of seven, to be elected
at large. The Council in turn will
select the manager. The vote in fa-
vor of the change was more than
three to two. Scandals in the Police
Department, which cams To a head

lice, on charges of malfcasance, ten
minutes before the polls closed,
famed the popular discomfort with
the old regime. PrOperty-owners
complained of high taxes. The cam
paign for the new dispensation was
organized by the Good Government
League and supported by the lead
ing local newspapers.
Trenton was one of the first of
the large Eastern cities to adopt the
commission form of government,
born in Galveston out OF the emer-
gency created by the 1900 food. I'm

rate, appoint officials and settle all
questions Of municipal policy; as In
dividuals they share administrative
responsibilities. For a while this
form Of government had q wide vog-
ue, founded on the hope that under
it municipal affairs would be hand
led in business like fashion. But this
hope was never wholly realized As
Professor Munro has observed, "a
iiye-headed executive does not usu-
ally function well, even when it has
plenty Of power"
The city manager plan is not open
to that objection, although there Is
always the danger that the members
Of the Council, or the politicians
behind them, will interfere with the
managers handling Of administra-
tive routine. Almost as much de-
pends nthe character Of the Coun-
Gil as on the character Of the man
ager. Cincinnati has been fortunate
in both respects, as we'll as in the
effective support given the expert
ment by influential groups in the
community. Staunton, Va, in 1908,
was the first city to adopt the Coun-
Gil manager form of government, At
the last reckoning 432 American cit
les had city managers, not to mem
tion Mount Royal, Quebec; Limerick,
ireland, and several other foreign
cities.

day favored to sweep into a 2-1
lead with a victory in the doubles
match series in tomorrow's con-
Guiding contests.
With the count knotted at one
singles victory each, Wilmer ALI
son and Johnny Van Ryn, veteran
cup doubles team, are expected to
halt Baron Gottfried Won Cramm
and Kay Lund to put America
ahead in the rance to provide Eng
land with a challenger for the cur
this weekend.
The series concludes tomorrow
with carrot-topped Donald Bulge
of California playing Won Cramm
and Allison meeting Heinrich Hen
KEEL, slender German law student
The winning team will meet Bri-
tain beginning Saturday - after
only two days rest.
Experts figure that today's dou-
bles should last four sets. Won
Cramm is not at his best playing
with a partner because he likes
plenty of court room. Lund, COM
parative novice in cup play, Is
hardly in the same class as his OPP
ponents. Thus Won Cramm alone
might carry the Americans to four
sets.
The German stylist as opposed
Van Ryn and Allison twice before
in interzone finals and both times
was on the losing side. In 1929 the
Americans defeated Won Cramm
and D. Prem and they duplicated
in 1882.
The only setback the Americans
have received since they began
campaigning in 1929 was loss to
Henry Cochet and Jacques Brug-
non of France in the 1880 chal-
lenge round.
If Allison plays like he did yes
terday in losing to Won Cramm
8-6, 60, GA, he should beat Hen
KEEL. The Americans speed during
the first set would have beaten
almost any player except Won
Cramm or Fred Perry of England
and Henkel is far from being
another Perry or Won Cramm.
The only factor favoring Henkel
Is the fact that Allison will be
playing his third match in as many
days, whereas the young German
has been idle since he lost to
Bulge in Saturdays opener.

BOXING RANKS
SECOND AMONG
ITALY'S SPORTS
Only Football, National
Pastime, Draws Bigger
Attendance
BY VIRGIL PINKLEY
lited Press STAFF Correspondent.


Rome July 20 (U.P.)-Popular-
ity of prize fighting has grown so
rapidly in Italy during the past
E! FIVE years that the sport now ranks
second in public esteem.
Only association football, which
is the national pastime, draws
more attention and gate money.
Horse racing and cycling events
also are heavily backed sporting
events.
There are in Italy to-day more
than 1000 amateur boxers, most
of whom are members of the Fas-
cist Party Athletic Federation.
Professional prize fights number
approximately 200 annually.
Fasc'b.s Support Boxing
The excellent showing made by
the Italian boxing team at the Los
Angeles Olympic Games, Primo
Cameras rise in the heavyweight
class and interchange of boxing
teams between Italy and the
United States, Argentine, England
and France all have increased in
terest in the bout, which is en-
Enthusiastically supported by the
Fascist party.
The average purse paid fighters
appearing in Rome, Milan, Turin
or other large cities Is about 1000
lire ($S0) for bout. Matches in
volving European or national
championships may pay partici-
pants 5000 to 5000 lire (4S0 to
$64O).
Championship contests cost 35
tc SO lire ($2.90 to $4) for a ring
side seat, while standing room may
be had for approximately 10 lire
Gao cents).
Fighters Evenly Matched
The Italian fight crowd is little
different from an American one,
except that Italians follow the
participants more closely, especial
~ during tense moments of a con-
test. The Italian fight, on the
whole, presents greater action and
the combatants usually are more
evenly matched in natural ability
and ring experience.
Italian fighters mix freely. They
move at swift pace since speed
Is one of their most natural assets.
Body attacks and defense against
the same are inferior to those
usually seen in the United States
or Great Britain.
Crowds Drink Beer
The Italian fight crowd drinks
beer, orange juice or mineral wa
ter, smokes countless cigarettes
and eats large sandwiches which
consists of small loaf of bread
into which is slippe da liberal por-
ton of meat or cheese. Peanut
brittle is one of the most favored
sweets, although "dolci americani"
| (American sweets) also are pop
ular.
Italy's best fighters are to be
found in the fiyweight, bantam
weight and lightweight classes.
Urbinati, national fiyweight
champion. is a promising boy who
fights with great courage and i'm
pressive skill. He recently deci-
sively defeated clyde, France, Eu-
ropean champion. Urbinati is to
meet the Frenchman shortly in

eager to beat Benny Bass when
they meet at South park Monday
evening, July 20, is hard at work
at his camp which has been set
down at Monson, Mass, in the
foothills of the Berkshires.
Bass is the only boxer ever to
score a knockout over Leto and
It has long ranked in his breast.
It was only a technical knock
ont but It was enough to put a
wide smirch on Leto's record.
In the bout, which was staged
In Bass home town, Philadelphia,
Leto outpointed Benny in the first
round but in the next frame Benny
caught him with a terrific punch
to the jaw from which the Har-
tford battler never recovered.
For many months Hartford pro-
moters have been trying to secure
this match and just succeeded last
