In New York
Ny GEORGE ROSS

New York, Aug. 2o-That Bea. sonal lament--that Hollywood h taking all the talent away from New York--was never in such disrepute as 1t has fallen into thb year.
 Those of us who keep track of the transeontinentai trains and planes are mostly impressed by the large exodus from the capital of the cinema. For it seems that every eelluloid star this year would like to come to Broadway and ap. pear here in the fiesh-properly clothed, of course.
 That urge to emote without benefit of camera came to the sure face this summer when, within three weeks of the arrival. of each other, Jean MetF, Frances Farmer, Henry Fonda and Dorothy MeiSaili turned up to woo the dramatic muse ct the summer WoFkshops. And now it looks As though all four ins tend to stay here. not permanently, but ct least until they perform one play this winter.
 Mss Muir acquitted herself well enough in c couple Of personal aps pearAnees for several Riaito pros dueeFs to have become interested; Henry Fonda already is committed to . play on Times Square; 90 are the Misses Maeseaill and Farmer; one in . show about the American Revolution, the other in c shew about Q pFlsesfighteF.

CHAM PIONS IN TRAINING GRIND FOR TITLE TESTS
Ambers, Ross, Esobar, and Thrill to Defend Crowns
 on Same Gard Sept. g

New York, Sept. S-The four world champions and their four challengers, who will meet in the Carnival of Champions of 1897 ct the Polo Grounds on Thursday, Sept. 23, are ready tor the hard hard grind of training, each having gone through preliminary work pre- parpaatory to the. arduous tasks ahead of them.
 Lightweight champion Lou Am bers and BantamVeight king, Sixto Escobar served in tune-up bouts last night, the former in Washing ton and the other inTIartford, while the others went through some light jogs at local gymnasiums and all are now set to move into their re- spective quarters on Saturday.
 Getting Ready
 Ambers, Escobar and Fred Apos- toll will pitch their tents at Mime. Bey's place at Summit, N. J. and Dr. Bier's camp at Pompton Lakes, N. J. will house three others, aame- ly Marcel Thil, the middleweight champion from France, who meets Apostoli; Ceferino Garcia, the Phil- lipines product, who tackles welter- weight champion Barney Ross and Pedro Montanez, the popular fight Ing youngster from Porto Rico, who hopes to shear Ambers of his lau- relS.
 Barney Ross has been in town for a few days and is all set. to go in training stunts at his old quarters at GrosSinger's, near Ferndale, N. Y. And, Harry Jeffra, fresh from c Monday night victory in Phila- delphia returns to New York and will make Stillman's his quarters until the fight.
 Fans Pleased
 And, as active as are the fighters just as active are the fight fans, who when the ticket sale started in the New York Hippodrome, Madi- son Square Garden, the Polo Grounds and the three Spalding stores, yesterday began sending in for tickets and calling for them. The early demand has been very big, so big, in fact, that sell-out is predicted not by the Twentieth Century club under but by every one who displays an interest in the sport.
 The prices of tickets have had their appeal to the crowd too and for the popular prices. Promoter Mike Jacobs has received hundreds of letters commenting him for his action and some of them wonder ing how. he could do it with such abundance of talent as he has brought together. The prices are $16.50 for ringsides and the reserved seat scale is $l1.50, $5.75, $3.50 with admissions at $2.50, to be placed on sale the day of the fight.
