 The reason for that grin you've noticed on Joe calipeau's features these days is due to the fact that our Joe is now grandpap. How time fliesl Seems only a short time ago when one entered the better rhythm rooms of the day you would be sure to find our Joseph swing ing the baton. COngrats-Joel

SHARKEY PLANS. TO 60 THROUGH. WITH COMEBACK.
European Tour May Be Part of New Year Ring
 Campaign for Cob
BY FLANK MURPHY

Limited Press Stan C0rEe6p0n0emG)
 Boston, Dec. 24-(UP)-Reports that an elbow injury has halted Jack Sharkey's comeback campaign and forced the former heavyweight champion into permanent retire ment are greatly exaggerated, 1t ap- peared to-day.
 Standing behind the bar of the long, picture hung tavern which he and Sharkey operate, rotund John ny Buckley, veteran manager of fighters, announced that Sharkey would get into action again next month, after which he may go transforming in Europe.
 How did it get around then 2 Buckley was asked, "that Sharkey suffered 8 clipped elbow bone in his bout with Eddie (Unknown Wins ton, and that an operation failed to clear up the trouble?"
 He's All Right
 'There's nothing the matter with Jacks elbows" Buckley replied. The fact is that Jack had a minor operation to relieve a condition made. it uncomfortable for him to sit down at times. The operation was a routine one and was success full. The whole report was SO ridic- ulous I didn't even bother to deny it at the time."
 Buckley said Sharkey has been working out regularly until the past few days, when his father and mo- ther, Binghamton, N. F., residents have been guests of Jack, his wife and the three Sharkey children at their Chestnut Hill home.
 "After the holidays" Buckley continued, "Jack will start active training for 8 bout at the Garden in mid-January. We aren't sure yet who Jack will meet, but if things go along all right it may be Natey Brown of Washington, who went 10 rounds with Joe Louis. If it isn't Brown, Sharkey may fight Shucco for Shucco's New England heavy weight championship. Then we may leave for England where Jack has a chance to meet the winner of the Len Harvey-Jack Peterson bout for the British heavyweight champion ship"
 Thil Got Gift
 Prospects of European invasion reminded Buckley of his other right arm," former middleweight and welterweight champion Lou Brouillard, so Johnny produced a photograph just received from his brother Jerry in Paris to demon strate how i've wr1z robbed" in the Brouillard-Marcel Thil bout in Paris last November 25.
 The picture, which Buckley said was snapped during the 18th and final round, depicted Thil on one knee on the canvas, mouth agape, as the referee counted with one arm and held the crowding Brouillard back with the other. '@Thil wasn't quite knocked out" Buckley ex- plained "so the Frenchman got the decision"
 Buckley's brother wrote him that he had hopes of Brouillard- -Thil re-match in February, "and if they fight again we'll be home with the world middleweight championship. !" Johnny, however, had his doubts that the chunky Brouillard would even so much as get into a ring with the French champion again.

The Standing

Being rather closely affiliated with the league leading Better B team makes it extremely ernbarrass- ing to sing the praises of the Jay- wees. However, facts that must be made known force us to place our nnodesty on the shelf. Going into battle last week the Els were lead- ing the pack by the narrow margin of two points. Their opponents, the Operators, explained by Ray Beardslee, counselled by Ed By and aided and abetted by Stewie Heit- man, F. Pat Dwyer and Walter "Ozzie" Nelson, were not the least bit bashful in their pre-game de- scriptive broadcast of how easy it was going to be to knock the in- experienced JaJyvees from their lofty perch. On paper 1t looked a cinch for the Meter B to come out on the short end, sothey were sort of reconciled at the start of the games against their chop lick ing and cocksure opponents, who were eager for the kill. When the B's upset the dope and won the first game, to say the Operators were surprised, is putting it mildly. It did not help the blood pressure of the men of Beardslee when the Jayvees breezed in an easy winner in the second game. But when the Operators were conceding a four point victory for the Jayvees before the thir dstring was half finished, we knew that rank confusion had entered their ranks and it was case of rush for the life boats" Yes, being a member of Meter B makes it a tough assignment to write about their 4 point upset win, especially after listening to the Operators pre-game blasts.
 Landlord" Ole Martel spent most of theh evening at alleys 5 and 6, a silent rooter for the Meter B in their match against Operators. Being connected with Welfare Dept. the organizing domain of the league forces Ole to suppress his feelings toward any particular team and adopt neutral stand in all mat ters pertaining to the race.
 That two point tie between Ray Mills Accountants and Emperor" Bill Jones worrying Welfarers can be classified as another upset. Hav- ing advantage of Frank Byrnes' last years average and with Tom Flanagan's pinch hitter having his best year 1t looked like g. walk away for the Welfarers. The Book keepers upset the dope by massing enough pins to bring in two points. Ray Mills and Danny Bergin were the big cannons for the Account ing.

C0MEDY-FARCE AT THE CAPITOL
 IS HILARIOUS
Glacie Allen and George Burns Head Excel
 lent Cast

The first motion picture to fea- ture Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians, Many Happy Returns, , opened last night at the Capitol Theatre, and proved to be an ex- citingly entertaining comedy-farce, made hysterically funny by the antics of George Burns and Oracle Allen.
 A Paramount production, the pie ture presents a pot-pourri of mani- acal comedy centering about the crazy Burns and Allen, delightful music by Lombardo's premiere radio orchestra, and a satisfying romance enacted by Joan Marsh and Ray Midland.
 Directed by Norman Mcleod, this film achieves great moments as a mad, glad comedy, with most of the funny business centering about the dizzy personality of Miss AL len. Presented as love-sick girl Ol 1efft VI V George Burns, she wrecks her fa- ther's department store business through insane mismanagement and | is accepted by her radio idol only when he is offered thirty dollars a mile for every mile he takes her away from home.
 
 The comedy speeds to Hollywood revealing an intimate picture of film operations with the entire en- i semble embroiled in hectic pur- i suit of fame and love.
 Lombardo, in his initial screen work, shows himself an expert snowman as well as orchestra lead CT. He introduces several striking new song numbers and orchestra tions.
 Veloz and Yolanda, the celebrated | dance team, have featured spot in the film and carry away their portion of the entertainment with flying colors.

 Kruger at Coliseum

Reproducing famous tourist haunts in Paris proved quite task tor research experts at the Metro Goldwyn- Mayer studios during the filming of Paris Interlude," cur rent screen attraction at the Coli scum Theatre The new picture, laid in Paris at the time of Lindbergh's first flight, had to reproduce tour ists haunts of 1927, many of them radically changed since that time. Paris Interlude" deals with the gcings-on of newspaper writers, fashion writers, illustrators and artists in the American colony of Paris. The picture starts with re- production Of the landing of Lind bergh, performed in an exact dup licate Of The Spirit Of St. Louis" and exactly as Lindbergh himself landed at Le Bourget Field.
 Based on Stage Hit
 Otto Kruger and Madge Evans head a notable cast in the new production, which was adapted from the stage play. All Good Ameri- cans" and was directed by Edwin L. Marin.
 In the cast are Una Merkel, Ed ward Brophy, Louise Henry, Bert Roach, Ted Healy, Richard Tucker, George Meeker and others. Hun dreds of gaily dressed players ap- pear in the spectacular masquer- ade in the aviation field sequences and others.
 The romantic story is enlivened by hilarious comedy episodes in various pleasure spots haunted by American tourists in the gay French capital.
