BOMBER TO
 SKIP MATCH
 WITH MAxIE
German May Not Get Fight with Champion for
 Over Year

NEW YORK, July 21.-Tt appears certain that Max Schmeling will not get title shot at Joe Louis this year. The best he can hope for is a date with Louis next year. The cauliflower gentry unani- mously agreed that when Max tried i to outsmart Promoter Mike Jacobs by dickering for fight with Tom my Farr in London, he succeeded only in outsmarting himself out of a return bout with the Brown Bomber
 Mike abruptly stepped in and signed Farr to meet Louis here on August 26 and left Max holding an empty bag Wait a Long Time
 Mike said Schmeling must wait until he gets ready to do business with him and intimated that would not be for some time.
 1 Meantime, Mike is rushing plans for the Louis-Far bout. He said the fight surely would draw $400 900 and might even pass $500,000. He decided to charge S27.50 top for ring sides.
 i He said he has $60 1000 in the till from radio rights at $35.000 and the picture rights at $25,000.
 Mike believes the English. who /. haven't had heavyweight of their own to root for since the laughable days of Phainting Phil Scott, will i turn out in droves to see Farr. Farr is on his way here and will start training at Asbury Park, N. J. Louis will open his camp at Pomp- ton Lakes, N. J, July 26.
 Watches Calendar
 Mike also is studying what he calls the three bibles of a fight pfomoter-the Farmers Almanac, Jewish calendar and Catholic cal- endar. The almanac gives him a slant on the probable weather and the calendars advise him what holy days to avoid.
 He had intended staging his four worlds title fights-bantam, welter, flight and middle weights, on Sep tember 13, but study of the cal- endars showed that date was only two days before Tom Kippur, one of the most sacred Jewish holidays. so he decided to postpone that card until September l6.
 ! Mike has that card about set. The only hitch is among the light weights. Lou Ambers wants Pedro Montanez to sign up for return bout in case Pedro wins the title and wants Pedro to post a $10,000 forfeit to bind such an agreement. Mike said he would straighen out this little matter in a day or two.

rankings for 1867 have the Wash
1ngton bowler at the top spot for the
second consecutive year.
Only recently Clarke was voted
the Capitals No. l roller for the
third straight season.
To retain his laurels as the king
OF the country's little-pin bowlers,
the man who lives across the Poto-
mac in Arlington shot an average
OF 12504 for 599 games, experiencin,
his greatest season here on the maple
ways since he crashed the big-time
some six years ago.
Clarke's chief rival for the highest
duckpin title the past season was
Nick Tronsky, New England's star,
who laced the naples for an average
OF 1912 for 216 games. This appar-
emily, gave Tronsky fair crack at re-
gaining the title he last won in l934-5
He also was ranked No. l in 1901,
Total Game Rule Decides.
RUT in determining the final stand
lngs, the Ranking Committee,
headed by George L. Isemann, sec
retary Of the N. D. B. c., adhered
to the rule Of awarding three pins a
game to the bowler rolling the greater
number of games. Rolling in 2s3
more games, Clarke got an advantage
OF 1,149 pins, to maintain his grip on
the crown.
Figured to the finest point. Clarke
gets an average of 126.75 to 1861
for Tronsky.
Bill krauss, who gave Clarke a
run for. the District honors, gained
fourth place. Hokie Smith got tenth,
to give Washington three positions in
the first ranking 10.
Johnny Miller, Baltimore's lead
ing roller the last two seasons, moved
from fourth place to third, while
Jack White Of New Haven qualified
for his first ranking and won fifth
place, just ahead of Wally Pipp, his
blue ribbon mate, who was ranked
second to Clarke last season.

In accordance with plans first an- nounced two weeks ago a course in salesmanship and retailing will be- gin next week at Crosby high school under the auspices of the local branch of the WPA educational pro- gram, supervised by Dr. Thomas J. Condon and directed by Miss Edna Harmon, local director.
 This course, offered under new program of vocational guidance, was inaugurated following an inves- tigation carried on by members of the staff in regard to local em- ployment possibilities. The investi- gation showed that there are more opportunities in these particular fields in Waterbury at the present time than in any other occupations which the local WPA staff could prepare young men and women for and work was immediately started in connection with formally organ izing classes.
 Waterbury business men and re- tail house owners have offered their cooperation in the form of lec- turers, demonstrators and materials. They have also stated that they will help as far as possible in regard to employing those who have success fully passed the courses.
 So far the local WPA has for warded letters to some 250 persons over sixteen years of age who are interested in this. type of work or who have qualifications for retail and salesmenship jobs. They have been invited to report at Crosby high school for personal interviews tomorrow afternoon from two until five o'clock. Interviews will also be held tomorrow evening from seven until nine and again on Friday afternoon from two until five o'clock.

 now used by the trolleys, to the junction of Calumet street and Farnington avenue where it would terminate. Attorney Thomas F. McGrath and J. Francis Smith, who represented the districts in pro- test to previous petitions, have stated that the new route would be satisfactory.
 Section Two Proviso But service to Waterville by way of Thomaston avenue is the object of section two of the petition. The line would include service to the following streets: Thomaston ave- nue, Homer street, Dwight street Faber avenue, Edgehill avenue Cooke street. Homer street, Dwight street, Hanover street, Boyden street through the park and back to Thomaston avenue.
 Every Ten Minutes
 Manager Charles H. Chapman has stated that service on this line would be every 10 minutes until the use of the line is established. No ob- jections from the residents of North Waterville, who were to have pro- tested 8 previously suggested route. will be made to this petition, ac- cording to Martin J. Dunn, spokes- man for the residents of North Waterville.
 Section three of the petition seeks the right to establish bus route on Chase avenue from Hill street to Homer street in Waterville. This line is purely for the convenience of factory workers and the service would probably be exclusively during the hours of to 2 a. m., and 2:30 to 5:30 p. m.
 Turn About Service Several streets at the termina- tion of the Highland avenue bus line would be serviced if the com- pany,s petition for a ttirn-around district for the bus is sanctioned. At the present the bus is simply backing around to retrace its route. Under the new petition, the bus would loop around Bennett avenue to Ruth street, to Wilkenda avenue and back to Highland avenue. A loop would also be established for the termination of the North Main Town Plot line, which will be serviced by bus after Sunday, April 4. The loop would include Avon street from Highland avenue to Ross street. on Ross street, then back to Congress avenue. There is not expected to be any opposition to any of the sections of the petition.
