GIANTS STAKE ALL
0NHUBBELL TODAY
Plight Desperate as Cubs
Beat Gumbert-Yankees
Batter Browns.
BY SID FEDER.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

7 rs UP to the mealticket again.
Carl Hubbell has to be right for
today's game with the Cubs. II
those Chicago clouters punch Mr..
Mealticket Hubbell full of holes again.
as they did last week, the Giants are
going to have as much chance Of toss
ing elephants around by the tails as
they will of catching the Cubs at
their current pace.
Hubbell, of curse, is used to being
the man on the spot. The fingers been
on him more or less for five years.
Last year he had to produce to win
the pennant. But TO-DAY, facing Tex
Carleton, it's just about case of come
through-Or else.
Cubs Beat OFF Jinx.
WHEN the Cubs clouted their jinx,
Harry Gumbert, for 53 win in
the series opener yesterday, largely
through the help the Giant felders
provided in kicking the ball around,
the Terry Terriers were dropped four
games back in second place. If Hub
bell can't do it today. the Giants are
going to need a ton Of horseshoes TO
overcome the resultant five-game lead
down the stretch.
In fact, If the Cubs clip King Carl,
that supposedly red hot National
League dog-hght will be as free and
easy as the American League business,
where the Yanks are breezing along on
a 612-game edge today.
Given their first effective pitching
in week, and aided by Lou Gehrig S
homer No. 20, murderers' row walloped
the Browns. 80, yesterday behind
Kemp Wicker in their series opener.
Since the second-place White Sox like
the Athletics. were idle, the win boosted
the Yankees edge half a game.

 BUYERS SEEK SITE
Sale of Land at Park Place and West Main Street
 Under Negotiations

Sale of the tract of land at the corner of Park place and West Main street, until recently occupied by a station of the Standard oil conn., pany of New York, is reported to be under negotiation.
 John E. Porzenheirn, president Of the Waterbury Masonic Realty Hold ing Company, stated today that at the present time there are two pros- pective purchasers, with whom the negotiations are being made. He would not advance an estimate of what the tract might be sold for, but as 1t is one of the most central gas- oline station sites in the city, 1t is believed that the tract would be sold for several thousands of dol- lars.
 It is located right opposite the Y. M. 0. A. and at the side of the Masonic building.
 Last night at a meeting of the board of aldermen, 8 letter signed by Attorney William w. Gager was read, offering to sell a strip of land six feet wide on Park place, which is now used as part of the street. The letter said that the strip Is soon to be sold unless the city cared to advance the assessed price so that the strip would not be withdrawn from public use. The matter was referred to the land committee.
 It is possible that the same per- sons interested in the former gas station would purchase the strip in question.

No Local Youths In
 State. Unit For Maine
Waterbury Apparently Forgotten in Make-Up of
 QuOddy Contingent; Excellent Opportunities

Waterbury again becomes the for- gotten city! Twenty youths recruited by the state office of the National Youth administration from Hart ford, New Haven, Bridgeport, Mid- dletown, Willimantic, Stamford and New Britain, were placed aboard a train in New Haven last evening and transported to the Quoddy pro- ject, Maine.
 The details of the selection of the youths, their places of residence and the personnel of the commit tees, which selected them, were out lined today in a special release mo- tice from the IVA headquarters.
 "Not Asked?"
 Inquiry was made at the local of of the local welfare department as to the number and identity of the Waterbury youths, who were expect ed to be selected. The statement was made that none from Waterbury was included in the state delegation and as a matter of fact this city was not requested to send any. Whether or not any formal query will be sent to the state MA office of the ra- tional WPA administrator was not revealed here today. It is evident, however, that Waterbury lost an excellent chance to provide employ ment for a few desiring youths. The Quoddy project is regarded as one of the ''plrlrns" of the year.

i Quoddy incident is just another days event.
 Says MT. Dodd
 Commenting upon the sending of these boys to Quoddy by the IVA, MT. Dodd said that the project is not SO much new thing as the ex- tension, under most favorable cir- cumstances, of the work which the Youth Administration has attempt ed to do all along. MT. Dodd re- marked that the chief value which the boys may expect from this ex- perience will lie in the opportunity of carrying out a variety of types of work under the almost ideal con- ditions afforded by the plant and equipment that were turned over to the IVA byh the army engineers at Quoddy. The boys will live in Quod- dy Village for 8 period of five months. They will have there the advantage of selecting, under ex- pert guidance counselling, those of work for which they are adapted, and will then engage in the actual practice of these ocupations under the competent supervision of train ed foremen. Reports on their pro- gress will be sent back to the mem- bers of the local selecting comrnit- tees at frequent intervals.
 In addition to their work ex- perience, the boys will lead an ex- traordinarily healthful life. During their stay in the Village, they will have good recreational facilities, housing, and medical care. There will also be opportunity to engage in clerical and white collar pursuits for those suited to this type of work.
 The boys, arriving at Quoddy about noon today, will embark at once upon their new life. The local committees are looking forward with interest to observe the changes five months will make in the young men they have chosen.

 Relatives said she has suffered lapses of memory several times but the attacks have been less frequent in recent years.
 Doctors forbade her to ride again but she disregarded their orders in the last year or two.
