CURB LIST GOES

NEW YORK, Feb. 16 dN.S).
Stimulated by the full cent ad-
vance in copper prices, curb stocks
firmed in later trading, after
initial easinesS. The market con-
tinued irregular, however, with
most gains of only moderate pro-
portions.
Strength in the metals was not
particularly outstanding despite
the increase in copper prices. Con-
solldated Copper climbed 5s point
to cross the 10 mark again in active
trading but Newmont Mining ad-
vanced less than point. Consoh-
dated Mining and Smelling added
two points while New Jersey Zinc
lost as much. Utah Apex was
strong and active, advancing 5s
point as a conditional dividend
was declared. Hudson Bay Mining
gained more than a point.
Lower priced utility shares came
back considerably but some Of the
preferred stocks were relatively
weak. Electric Bond and Share

simply that the latter are not

Cotton Goods

NEW YORK, Feb. 1s U.N.s.). Al
though volume of sales in the cotton
gray cloths market was not large, the
market tone was firm, and good prices
were paid for whatever lots changed
hands. There was good inquiry for most
constructions at prices well under the
market, and this was interpreted as test
bidding. Seconds were on offer in small
quantity, but merchants generally looked
forward to large covering operations in
the near future, and withheld most of
their stock from the market.
1t was said that the relatively few
print cloth sales cleaned out all offer
ings at the price levels Of last week in
some constructions. Narrow print cloths
sold in only scattered lots. Carded broad
cloths saw some volume. and sheetings
were firm. Few offerings of drills were

Mixed Views
Experts Can't Agree
On Harry Thomas

POMPTON LAKES, N. J., Dec.
10.-Opinion was sharply divided
today on the fistic ability of Harry
Thomas, Chicago heavyweight
training here for his bout with
Max Schmeling in New York next
Monday.
After one Of Harry's crushing
rights forced one sparring partner
to quit, no less an authority than
Jack Dempsey predicted:
IF Thomas keeps rushing
Schmeling and keeps on top of
him all the time, would not be
surprised at all to see him score
an upset victory"
For two other sparring partners,
however, Thomas proved to be an
easy target.

The first phase of Washington's
own boxing war to the hilt begins
tonight, when the Rialto Theater
throws open its doors as q fight

veteran of the Wars of Miami, the
Battle of Chillcothe and other
points around the compass, bids

This main bout between two
boys who are no strangers to each

be supported by preliminaries that
promise action from start to
finish.
Jackie Carter will peep over the
gloves at Irish Eddie Foran, who
is not to be confused with the
overseas bantamweight scrapper
who has fought the best in the
world. Foran is a willing worker,
and something Of a craftsman in
his line. Carter is a real good

Beanstalk, but there are always
the Green Bay Packers and the
Chicago Bears.
Last year it was the Packers.
This year it's the Bears. For
the most part, that's the way
it's been ever since the league
was organized.
The Washington Redskins are
going to hunt the Bears at
Wrigley Field, Chicago, Sunday,
in the game that amounts to the
worlds football championship;
a one-game worlds series.
You'd think it was going to be
played here in New York, the
amount of talk you hear about
1t. A tremendous amount of
betting is being done on it. One
fellow Of our acquaintance won
$35, 1000 on the Redskins against
the Giants last Sunday, and is
reported to be sending 1t back
on the boys from Washington.
SWEET FARLEY
Which will make a sweet par
lay, if it goes over. My guess
is that it won't. I lean to the
canny Mr.. George HaIas and his
bouncing Bruins. The Bears
opened favorites at 2 to on
Monday, were at 6 to 5 last
night, and probably will answer
the whistle at evens. And in
their own back yard!
They won't like that. But my
11u1ch Is that the Redmen fired
every arrow in their culver in
that smashing 49-14 rout of
the Giants.
It's an axiom of the gridiron
game that no team can be
steamed to fever heat for two
games in succession, and if ever
any outfit was hot, the Redskins
were here.
Furthermore, don't let any
body kid you that the Giant
game didn't take physical toll of

Bears. The Redskins didn't
meet the Chicago wrecking crew
this fall. True, the Giants did
and played 'em to a 3-3 tie.
But In that game Halas had Q
crippled and almost useless
Bronco Nagurski in action.
Nor will the cold wave that
grips the Windy City be any
boon to a hot-weather pitcher
such as Sammy Baugh. Even
though the Sweetwater Sweet
heart does hold the league record
of 81 completed passes in I'll
tries.
Thus, with me, the game
comes down to being a tough
assignment in which kicking is
likely to be the deciding
factor. We hear much more
about runners and passers and
rock-ribbed lines, but its re-
markable how many football
games are won by kicking. To
paraphrase Napoleon, GO d
seems to be on the side with
the heaviest boot.
Both Riley Smith and Baugh
are first-rate kickers. But the
edge must go to the Bears and
the gentleman known as Auto
matte" ManderS. Put q tiny
ring around "Automatic's"
name. He'll probably wind up
winning the ball game and
championship for that dear
Chicago.
And nobody can say Chicago
isn't about due for some sort
of title what with the Cubs
getting to be the place horse
of the National League in base
ball, and one thing and
another.
BY the way, If I were you !
wouldn't permit myself to get
too excited over that CORY strug-
gle between the two big leagues
over what sort of ball they'll
play with next year. BY July 4
the fans won't know the differ
ence. The one thing I'm sure Of
about sports is that disputes
over rules and technicalities Of
play run for the man with the
end book so far as the fans are
concerned.
GOOD SET OF RULES
There isn't any doubt that
the football pros have the best
set Of rules ever developed for
the gridiron game. However,
nobody watching Yale and Har-
ward or Pittsburgh and Notre
Dame battle this past fall
seemed inclined to fret over it.
Those were pretty good games,
too.
The National League has been
the So-called pitching league for
several seasons. Indeed, since
along came Ruth. They play
more closely knit ball in my
friend Ford (howdy, folks)
Tricks circuit. Faster games,
with smaller scores, and greater
emphasis on defense.
