TODAY'S
SPORTS PARADE
BY HENRY McLEMORE

NEW YORK, Aug. %. CUP)-My
original plans called for me to do
an analytical essay on the Japan
ese-Chinese situation today, with
especial emphasis on the Whangpoo
river and its tributaries. But, while
l was polishing off a dish of chop
suey to get in the right frame of
mind, in came a letter from Rufus
Stanley Woodward of the New York
Hearld Tribune, the country's best
football writer.
AT the risk of incurring Mr.. Wood
wards ire (for 1 am sure he meant
me to keep the letter secreD I am
going to print it, Here, in the same
flowing Spencerian hand in which
it was written, is the letter:
Dear Henry:
Perhaps you would be kind
enough to tell your clientele i'm the
temperate and intemperate zones
about the noble expei .ment which
we are about to conduct in the
own of New York. For some years
il has been generally concluded,
some think proved, that eastern
football was definitely gentler
than that which was played i'm
the more naive sub divisions of
the country.
Last fall, however, the eastern
teams leyeled their outland opp
onents in two-thirds of the inter-
sectional games. The last touch
was applied when Pittsburgh muir
dered great and good Washington
in the Rose Bowl You will remem-
Der that Dr. Jock Sutherland had to
apply heavy reverse English TO keep
the Panthers from adding to an
already lopsided score. After his
boys had made 20 points, he weak
ened the team by substituting third
stringers In strategic positions.
THE general superiority OF the
east last fall bred the idea that a
selected group of eastern players
might be able 20 take down the hair
of the professionals, something
which nons of Mr.. Arch Wards
Chicago encourages has yet been
able TO DO.

CHICAGO. Aug. %. (UP)-Wheat
futures stubbornly resisted the pres

new lows for the season on the

Australia. weakness in Liverpool

pressing factors.

Liverpool was strong at the open
ing but reports Of rain in the south

prices closed as much as cents

slow. Buenos Aires and Rotterdam

Fight fans Of Imperial Valley are
still talking about what they termed
"a lousy decision" at the Ell Centro
arena last Thursday night when
Herman Graves was awarded a de-
cision over Ramon clown" Burns
in the main event.
The outburst of jeering greeted
the verdict of the two judges is
still ringing in the ears of the
Bench Warmer.
L. E. Perry, one of the judges
whose verdict was SO Wholehearted-
II booed, gives his reaction to the
attitude of Thursday nights deci-
sion, and after reading Perry's re-
action the Bench Warmer is in
clined to agree with the arbiter.
I'm my mind there is nothing
that is less in keeping with nat
ural and universal laws of correct
prOpriety than "boOing" the other
fellows decisions. A judge of
any given pro;5lem must necessar-
rily be familiar with its most in
innate design and functions. A
judge must have background upon
which to base his decision. Ut
most attention and unprejudiced
opinion formulate the cOterie of
the judge. Mass demonstration
may after all be follow the lead
er" tactics, b0lstered by few.
Boxing is one of the more
difficult to decision, particular
ly if the match is close. To the
novice a bout may appear a GER
tain way, while the trained eye
may see quite differently. This
is usually the gap between COM
plete familiarity with the sub
ject and unacquaintance with all
the rules.
"Cl0wning pleases the crowd
but does not mean points except
for the opponent. Most clowners
violate some of the finer teehni-
calities of boxing, such as: back
handing, riding, wrestling, hold
ing and hitting, retreating and
not breaking clean. Very few IL
any of the above are known to
the "booer" as rule violations of
boxing. We conclude then that
the chance of two judges and a
referee misconstruing the facts,
are indeed very slim"

when, standing with Christ, she maintains than man and woman shall become husband and wife un- til death and not until the judge parts them.
 MT. Goldstein proceeded to ex- plain the difference between @ di- vorce and an annulment," dis tinction that the state as well as the church makes, though the church is more strict in making the distinction. A divorce is based upon the recognition that the par ties obtaining it have been legitim- ately married and lived together as man and wife.
 Remarriages
 It permits their separation and remarriage while both parties to the first union live. An annulment is based upon the recognition that they never were man and wife from Christian standpoint. Divorces are not granted by the Catholic church whereas annulments are granted when sufficient reasons warrant them. "The cases of the Duke of Marlborough and Henry VIII were cited to show that money or political power play no part in granting annulments" While presenting a severe indict- ment against laxity in marriage life and condenning the Christian attitude of American courts to- wards marriage and divorce, the speaker presented figures to show that in our country more divorces are granted per hundred thousand of population than in any country in the world save the U. S. s. R." Also that "64 per cent of persons given divorces had no children, the other 36 per cent left 2,1o0,00O di- vorce orphans during the first twenty eight years of this century; that 77 per cent of persons obtain ing divorces remarry once, twice and as often as ten times.

The fifth of the series of open air meetings last night on the west end of the Green was attended by a large and enthusiastic audience. The topic, the Catholic Church and the Family" was dealt with by David Goldstein, the convert from Marx to Christ" who was intro- duced by his assistant, Marius Ris- ley. The subject announced for next Wednesday night was "the Catholic Church and Birth Con- trol".
 After Chairman Risley told the story of the outdoor campaign be- ing sponsored by His Excellency Bishop Maurice F. McAuliffe, he gave what he called "an instruc- ton" regarding the use of sacra- mentals by the Catholic church. He then introduced MT. GoldStein, who said:-
 Stability
 ''The attitude of the Catholic church towards marriage and di- vorce is based primarily upon the procurement of Christ. that what God hath joined together, let no man put asunder'. Happiness. said he, lis dependent upon stabil- ity and purity in family life. Such happiness Is not possible under a divorce system, such as we have in our country today, or under the free union system, such as is seen in the Land of Socialism-Applied.
