 IN ELKS' HALL
Eight Twist Until -It-Hurts Rasslers in Four.
 Big Bouts

Tonight is pretzel night at Elks' Hall, beginning at 730 o'clock, when four wrestling bouts get un- der way.
 Heading the bill will be Bill Walthers, that local muscle bender who throws a mean set of head and body scissors, tangling with Walter Gaston, the Old Mexico champion who did such a cute little act on the ropes last December-and who is a master at the Bos- ton Crab hold Walthers weighs in at 168 and Gaston at TIP.
 Semi finders, Doc Webb (a dirty rassler from the word boo at 187 pounds, and Bill Donovan, at 195 pounds, will tangle in what promises to be a number one bout with plen- ty of dirty work to keep Referee Bill Donovan busy.
 Gene Eustace, ITO pounds, will sub stitute for Cowboy Davis tonight, as Davis suffered a dislocated knee last night in wrestling a workout partner. Eustace, from Salt Lake City, was being groomed for a future bout. He has the weight and experience edge on Gordon Muma, who will enter the ring at 165 pounds. Muma will have his work cut out for him.
 The two High School lads who last month pleased the crowd with a 10 minute playing for keeps" grap- bling contest, will be matched again Mike Daniloff, chunky and well built, and Gil DeVault, strong limb ed and rangy.

BRADDOCK TO BATTLE FARR
 THIS EVENING
Former Heavyweight t Champion and Terrible
 Welshman to Meet

NEW YORK, Jan. 221.-The sec ond big heavyweight brawl of the indoor season takes place in Madi- son Square Garden tonight between Jim Braddock, former champion, and Tommy F'arr, terrible Welsh man
 The bout promises to be a hot and heavy one and the Garden is virtu- ally a sell-out, over a $90,000 gate predicted by Promoter Mike Jacobs.
 Farr, largely on the strength of the fact that he has gone Is rounds with Champion Joe Louis without becoming a total loss, remains a fla vorite in heavy betting odds of to 5 and to 5.
 Farr is the local choice over the 32- year-old opponent Braddock does not lack supporters as he still pack a punch even if his legs are not what they used to be.

CALLING THE CAGERS-NO. A:
 Irish Are StiU Tough

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Jan. 21.- Just as was the case a year ago, Notre Danes basketball quintet has run slap-dab into early disaster, but the Fighting Irish may snap back into trim for another long victory string.
 Coach George Keogan's profess sional eye detected a lack of tension in his cagers early this campaign. They weren't keyed up to their task.
 Keogan's diagnosis was correct and the Irish didn't get away with just a scare. Illinois popped them and halted their consecutive-gam streak at l9.
 So, now that that's over, Keogan hopes they'll get set for another winning streak. On paper, at least, the Irish should turn in better record than in 1917 The squad lis in better physical shape than it was early in the previous campaign, is stronger and more experienced and the schedule is no more diff cult

SteeIe's Knockout by Fred ApostoEi Is
 First Major Upset in Sports This Yeor
By DILLON GRAHAM AP Feature Service Writer

NEW YORK, Jan. 21. - After watching Fred Apostoli pummel Freddie Steele into utter helpless ness it is difficult to imagine Steele successfully defending his middle weight title when he risks it against the belting bellhop from Frisco.
 The word along Rue Cauliflower is that they'll meet in an outdoor championship battle this summer. Although Steele has made no an- nouncement it is likely he will retire if he loses his crown. Meanwhile, Apostoli will box Glen Lee of Oma- ha, Neb., in New York February 4
 A few months ago Steele said he planned to quit the ring in year or so and enjoy the sizeable for tune his fists have brought him.
 He is too intelligent youngster to imperil his health by taking many more bad beatings for the sake of money. He's only 25 and un- doubtedly had several more years of good fighting in his system, but he's been tossing and taking leath- CT for decade He is as ciean-cut a boxer as the ring knows, with none of the marks of his profession and our guess is that hell retire.
 Surprised Everybody
 No matter what else happens in the ring this year, Apostoli's decisive triumph in their er-the-weight bout in Madison Square Garden a few nights ago, will stand as one of l938's major surprises.
 Apostoh, beaten by Freddie sev eral years ago, was on the short end of 3-to-1 odds. Many expected a good fight for Apostoli had come along strong and unquestionably was the outstanding contender, but few looked for an Apostoli triumph and perhaps none fancied his winning by a technical knockout.
 Tn previous tits with challengers Steele had shown himself a master boxer and a hard puncher with either hand. But Apostoli fought so aggressively at close quarters that Steele had little chance to box or to rely on his customary long dis tance artillery.
 After taking a good early licking, Steele found himself and was the champion of old in the fourth and fifth rounds but from the sixth Apostoli tock complete charge.
 Steele's Excuses
 Apostolis low blow at the start of the seventh round undoubtedly hurt Steele, but apparently it served only to shorten the encounter. Steele showed himself a courageous cham pion by the manner in which he took Apostoli's assault without going down. By actual count Steele ab- sorbed 51 punches in the eighth round.
 Steele said he was accustomed toI more tape and bandages than the New York commission allowed and was so aggravated by it's ruling that

 It may keep him from basketball for an indefinite length of time, but it will not hurt his pitching, for Claude is fortunately right hand ed man.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Oct. 8.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt spent q quiet Saturday
at his home today in the company of
his old friends, Prof and Mrs. Felix
Frankfurter.
The Harvard law professor has been
mentioned often as possible ap-
pointee for the existing Supreme Court
vacancy. In announcing Mr.. Frank

for Washington. He will remain there
about a week, returning then to Hyde
Park for another weeks visit.
BY the time he comes back here, the
President was expected to have decided
whether to speak in New oYrk for the
Democratic ticket Thus far, he has
said he has no plans for a speech in
New York. He has announced, how
ever. he expects to talk with Gov.
Herbert H. Lehman, now running for
fourth term, before the election.
Gov. Lehman originally wanted to
run for the Senate seat made vacant
by the death OF Senator Copeland.
Democrat, of New York, but was per-
suaded to seek fourth term by Post
master General Farley and other
Democratic leaders.
School Sites Discussed.
The President said he had no part
in bringing about Lehman's decision
to run again. but added he heartily
approved OF it.
Besides Prof. and Mrs. Frankfurter,
the President talked today with the
Rev. Frank r. Wilson, rector of the
nearby ST. James Episcopal Church,
and with local school officisls.
Mr.. Roosevelt discussed with the
school authorities possible sites for
school buildings proposed under an
already-approved consolidation pro-
