GRID GAME TO BE
 PLAYED INDOORS
Women to Wear Evening Clothes to Atlantic City
 Novelty Saturday

Atlantic City, Oct. 28.-Hallowe'e 'en will be marked by number of par ties both private and public, throughout the resort and hundreds of visitors from all the nearby met ropolitan sections are here to do their celebrating.
 All of the larger hotels are plan ming special aairs for the entertain ment of their guests during this weekend. The exceptionally fine weather, of which Atlantic City boasts at this time of the year, makes 8 vacation here in the fall particularly inviting.
 Mother Nature has taken up her brush and painted the woodlands, that surround the highways leading to the resort, in myriad of colors presenting pretty pictures for the visiting motorist. She is also kind to the golf courses in this vicinity and the sport can be enjoyed at all i've throughout the year.
 The annual football game between the University of Delaware and Pennsylvania Military College is the high spot on the entertainment cal- endar Saturday evening. This con- test, held each year in the conven- tion hall, is the only college grid game staged indoors. It presents a rather unusual spectacle in that the spectator, seated in an upholstered seat, can watch the game without thought of, or annoyance from, the weather. Many attend in evening clothes.
 The game is sponsored by the Morris Guards, resort city troop, and the uniformed company of the Guards along with the cadets from the military college perform a num- tAr of intricate drills between the
 haleas.

recently the SEC has charged that for three months, insiders, instead of supporting the market for their shares, were selling at an alarm ing rate and thus actually setting in motion declines in their own shares.
 As to margins, there is not the slightest doubt that the s per cent margin rule, along with the anti manipulative precautions, reduced the volume of business on the ex- change. That may be bad for busi- ness-the stock exchanges business, the brokers business-but 1t 1 not g bad thing for everybody ele's business. It is an excellent thing.
 If manipulation were permitted now, if insiders were permitted to trade without disclosure, if margins were down to 20 per cent as of yore, there is no doubt the market would have been wider, deeper, more ac- tive. For more people would have been in and on larger scale. And, as a result, prices would have gone much higher. And the break would have come sooner and far more violently.
 Will the market go up again? Of course that is difficult to say.
 There is good deal of anxiety about taxes. The outlook for havier taxes is certainly not an ercourag- ing one for business-and this has nothing to do with the soundness of the taxes.
 The notion that the governments persisting deficit caused the crash is 50 far wrong that the opposite is true. It was the governments ds- ficit which chiefly caused the rise. That is why the rise was so un- wholesome--it was built on @ series of government deficits, on a credit imitation generated by government borrowing.
 If the government balanced its budget tomorrow and some other credit force were not set in mo- ton the whole thing would col- lapse more than ever. In fact, think 1t Is a fair assumption that 1t was the widely advertised belief that MT. Roosevelt was really getting around to trying seriously to bal- ance the budget which convinced a lot of people that the inflationary movement was going to be checked and which encouraged them tO get out of the market.
 It looks as if the governments credit is going to be greatly cur- tailed. I do not see any sign of private credit making up the diff. ference. These facts lead me to be- lieve that there is going to be no boom; that instead an adjustment of some sort is inevitable. .i
 But I do not think the country as Q whole is very prepared to believe that. Therefore 1t Is entirely pos- sible that the new recovery in the market may develop some further strength. But 1t cannot last.

BOAT TO RACE
FOR LAST Time
IN CUP REGATTA
Farewell on Slate
Also for Apache
By CHICK KENNY

When the Presidents Cup Re
gatta gets under way tomorrow
for a three-day spell of aquatic
thrills, two outstanding partici-
pants in the affair will be making
their farewell appearances.
First Of all, the Apache, the
patrol boat, which has acted in
official capacity since the first
Regatta, will perform its final
chore, as, has been announced.
The boat will either be sold at
auction or scrapped, and in it's
place a new craft will arrive next
month from San Diego.
The second adieu will be that
of that great racing piece, the
Emancipator II, owned by S. Morti-
mer Auerbach, and undefeated in
competition. This particular mas
terpiece is a 1876 cubic inch hydro
plane, and when we say hydro
plane, that is exactly what me
mean.
LAST RACE
Word from Atlantic City, home
port of the Emancipation II, states
that the boat will race for the
last time, flying the Auerbach
colors in the Presidents Cup Re-
gatta. The hydroplane holds the
worlds one-mile and five-mile
competitive records as we'll as win

The following is the order OF
fights in this unique mardi gras
of maui:
Fred Apostoli, San Francisco,
versus Marcel Thil. France, for
whatever claim both may have
upon the world middleweight
championship.
Barney Ross, world weller
weight champion, defending the
title against Ceferino Garcia, Los
Angeles.
FIRST RING SERIES
Lou Ambers, world lightweight
champion, versus Pedro Montanez,
Puerto Rico, for the title.
Sixto EScobar, world bantam

weight champion, versus Harry
Jeffra, Baltimore, for the title.
Thus, we have the first boxing
series in history in which at least
three world championships are to
be decided on the same evening
and in one and the same ring
To find anything that even briefly
touches it, we have to go all the
way back to New Orleans as Of
1892 when we had three champion
ships in three days. climaxed by
Sullivan's withdrawal before Cor
bett.
Tonight's affairs, however, must
do at least 10000 at the gate and
not worse than 100000 at the
turnstiles, the attraction being
not only 60 rounds of champion
ship boxing, but the fact that the
boys must bet these matches as
though they were a race-track
card. If, TO- instance, you lose on
Apostoli against Thil-and nobody
now knows why you should-you
will and must get the dough back
on a bet on the Ross Garcia fight.
HEAVIEST BETTING
Probably the biggest betting
fight will be Ambers and Montanez.
Both are 4 to S and pick your man
today, but most of the money is
going in on Ambers, although
Montanez previously took him In
a 10-round non-title fight. In the
same way, Garcia twice had Ross
on the rug in an over-the-weight
match and Jeffra took two non
title decisions from Escobar. The
idea is that Ross and Escobar are
supposed to be tough guys when
the title is UP there for decision.
Personally, I like Ross and Jeffra'
