Russia demanded punishment Of the

the Staying, guarantees against a re-
currence of such incidents and return
of the slain Sentry's body, arms,

Togo insisted the affair be settled
in accordance with Japan's previous

The fallen Russian was buried on
Manchukuan soil, Togo reported, and
his equipment and horses conhscated
by the Japanese patrol.
The boundary between Siberia and
Eastern Manchukdo has been the
scene Of several disputes In the last
year.
The Japanese Army twice accused
the Red Army Of crossing the frontier
near Tungning late last month to cut
timber III Manehukuan territory.
The TaSs official Russian news
agency, which published news of She

Russian note called attention TO an

frontiers" 1t said the protest de-
manded the return of the Russian
restoration OF his body If he were
slain.
Meanwhile, diplomatic and other
non-Japanese quarters here pictured
the japanese Army as having COM
pleted another enormous stride-the
adding of Hopei Province, China, to
the vast realm it dominates.
They see in North China q sub

in 1881 Topped Manchuria from China
and in 1888 added Jehol to Nippon's
sphere of influence.
These sources view it as the action
Of the army, with lukewarm backing
from the Toxic government.
"Purge" Credited to Army.
The official Japanese version cred
its the army merely with the ''purg-

North China.
Tokio'S oficial Spokesmen insist the
military authorities have carried out
only local measures necessary to COM
pei China to fulfill her obligations

Manchukuo in accordance with jap

HOpei's precise destiny remains a
matter of widespread speculation. The
Toxic foreign office, while attempting
to present as reassuring a picture as
possible for world inspection, comedies
that China's submission to the Japa-
nese military demands has created an
administrative and military vacuum
In the province.
The situation results from the re-

Chinese Nationalist government and
elimination of other vestiges of the

FOUR STAR AUTO RACERS OUT FOR
 MIDGET GROWN

Bridgeport, Sept 23-There will be four drivers monopolizing the crowds Support when the deciding race of the New England midget auto championship series Is con- ducted Wednesday night at New field Park. They are, in the order named, Ernie Gesell, Bill Holmes. Bill Schindler and Johnny Duncan.
 Popularity is these boys reward for having consistently satisfied the customers at the risk of their necks. Particularly is this 50 in the case of Gesell. The last four midget shows have been the best of a lengthy season on the New field Park speedway-and that string of thrillers started with the local debut of Ernie Gesell, who introduced himself to local fans with a feature-event victory and some of the risky riding which he has consistently displayed here since then.
 Entering this weeks race, Holmes and Schindler are tied for the leadership in the point standing. Schindler won the opening race, in which Holmes was unplaced, but Holmes spun around the track in record time to take last weeks fea- ture after Schindler became in- volved in a spectacular four-car crash and was too badly wrapped up to continue.

eyes, and scattered about this country and Europe millions more will listen to the radio and read newspapers for the details.
 Many of the spectators gathered at the ringside tonight will be clutching ticket stubs which cost them better than $200, the price asked by scalpers as the demand surged past the supply. In the space of an hour yesterday heard an offer of $1,500-$750 a pair for four fourth row tickets, and one of $150 for mezzanino seat, far from the battle pit. The second offer was refused; promise--four on the 17th row for $1,O00.
 Not since Dempsey and Tunney squared off in Soldiers Field. Chi cago, nearly a decade ago, has there been such wholesale betting on a fight. Reliable commissions CTS say that millions of dollars will be riding on the two men, with Louis being the more heavily backed.
 Open Fight
 Your guess as to the winner is as good as anybody's. Not even Dempsey and Tunney created such q wide divergence of opinion among the experts as have the clowning Californian and the stolid negro. Just what is it that makes prize fighting such a com plex art? On the surface, Ia boxe seems such simple business. with a fighter having but two arms and two legs with which to apply his trade. Tennis, golf, or jolo say, are much more involved busl- nesses, but whereas experts can watch a tennis player or a golfer or poloist for five minutes and tell whether he's good or not, they seem to find it impossible to call the turn on fighter.
 Toss.Up
 Tn the bedlam that was Promo ter Mike Jacobs office yesterday, heard fifty different opinions or Baer and Louis by as many diff fereht experts. Men who have lived and breathed boxing fol years simply couldn't agree on tho merits of the two men. Jack Dempsey, who knows boxing thinks Baer will annihilate tho negro. Joe Jacobs, who has man. aged champions and near cham pions since the turn of the cen. tury, is betting his shirt that Louil will butcher Baer. On one side of the room keen critic of box ing would tell you that Louis has { punk right hand punch; cross th' room and Barney Ross, weltel champion, would tell you that thu negro's right hand punch is thu festest, sweetest thing he ever, sav on a heavyweight.
 We'll know the answer around 10:30 p. m. (EDT) tonight. Tn guessing that Baer will write tn answer with his cobplestone righ hand, but the man who's looking over my shoulder as I type this and who knows more boxing in fiv minutes than I'll know in 10 years says he has 10 dollars to my fiv that says I'm wrong.

punching power in his two fists than any other living fighter, but he must concede that one of Baer's right hand smashes is more devas- tating than any single blow in the boxing fraternity.
 Problem.
 What will happen if Louis hits Baer with his Sunday punch and he doesn't go down is one of the most rife questions of the day. It's going to cost ca cool million to find out the answer.
 The Baer followers feel that Baer purposely will try to snare Louis into fighting hard in the first few rounds and then cut loose himself between the fourth and eighth. Some persons think Baer will have to do his damage before the bout posses the ninth round, or he'll be done for. They figure that he won't be able to last 15 rounds, regardless of how Louis fights him. They believe Baer has burned too many candles at both extremities the past two years. Baer's love of night life put a big crimp in his training during the past year. Not until he lost his title did he really settle down and show any sign of building himself up again.
