tell whether Mir. Barbaro Is con- cerned over the boxing situation or whether he merely is trying to grab off @ piece of publicity for e night spot he operates in Detroit
 have my suspicious, and, being 6 generous fellow, will give them to you. They are that MT. Barbara wants some publicity. Why Is 1t necessary to find a white hope2 And if 1t is necessary what's the matter with a gent named Lou Nova? He is white, he is hopeful and he can fight, as you will see when he and Louis get together on the 29th of this month.
 MT. Barbaro's stunt has been tried before, and 1t would be a good idea for him to consult with James J. Johnston before devoting time and money to a tournament, Johnston once inserted an ad in the papers announcing that he would interview young men with strong backs, suffi- cient weight and muscle seasoned with dash of courage who were interested in trying for shot at the heavyweight championship.
 The result left MT. Johnston speeches., which is no small feat if you know Mir. Johnston. They came from everywhere. They were fat, thin, bow-legged, croSs-eyed and some of them were superb physical specimens. The only difiiculty was that none of them could fight a lick. Johnston, weighing about i35 with his pockets stuffed with S gold pieces, could lick any of them and frequently threatened to do so. After a time, MT. Johnston aban- doned his idea and went back to the theory that 1t was better to get one good heavyweight prospect and sink or swim with him.
 Tn Jack Johnson's time there may have been some justification for conducting a search for a white hope. Johnston had infinite talent for getting himself into difficulties and, of course, there will always be that picture taken in Havana. The one in which Johnson is resting comfortably on the canvas with Jess Willard towering over him. Pre- sumably Johnson Is being counted out, but while the process is going on he Is holding one glove aloft to shade his eyes from the fierce glare of the semi-tropical sun.
 What would like to ask and I hereby do ask is what is the matter with the guy who is champion now? There never was a cleaner fighter than Joe Louis and if you don't be- lieve 1t ask any man who ever refereed one of his fights. He minds | his own business, he fights anybody and everybody who has the slightest | pretense of being a heavyweight | challenger. On nights when he looks like the great fighter that he is and scores & quick knockout he | is modest and unassuming. When | somebody makes him look bad, he | admits it. He is generous with | praise for others and stingy with | praise for himself.
 He can be champion, for my dough, as long as he can keep belt | ing out the boys and if Mir. Barbara would like some free advice, here 1t | is: Forget those white hopes and confine the search to chorus girls for the night club. They're much prettier.

TOCzYLOWSKI TURNS DOWN PRO CONTRACT

Saugus, Mass, Sept. 5,-(UP)- Henry Tocylowski, Boston College quarterback who earned all-America rating last fall, had chosen today to i'll his contract as Saugus high school football coach at $2,20o a year rather than play with the Brooklyn Dodgers in the National ProfeS- sional Football league at reported salary of $6.200.
 The blond blocking ace who joined the naval reserve several weeks ago probably will enter school at North western University in May to train for a commission but may be called in January.
 T asked at least 30 people what to do," he said last night. "They told me what they'd do. but in the end 1t didn't do any good. One man had to make the decision. and that one man was me"

 New York, Sept. 5.-tUP)--While the Chicago Cubs have no direct in- tereSt in the flrst-division affairs of the National league, their eagerness to stay out of seventh place helped change the complexion of the leagues fastest-paced pennant race in years today.
 The Cubs, lodged in sixth place, are headed for their most inglorious finish since 1925 when they finished eighth, but they played like cham pions yesterday to defeat the St. Louis Cardinals twice, 80 and 4-3, and knock the Red Birds one full game behind the idle Brooklyn Dodgers.
 The double defeat, which broke c seven-game Cardinal winning streak and coming as 1t did with only 9 more games remaining on the sched- ule, raised Brooklyn's hope that the Cards defense is beginning to crack. ...
 The Cards committed seven errors, two in, the first game and five in the nightcap. The two errors in the opener were not especially danag- Ing but the five in the nishtcap costt he Red Birds the game.
 Moreover, Manager Billy South worth was forced to use seven pitch CTS in the twin bill, including four of his starting aces. If he cannot e-arrange his pitching rotation for the important three-garne series with Brooklyn beginning on Sept. Il, the Cards are in for trouble.
 Lon Warneke, who authored the first no-hit game of the season last Saturday, was knocked out in the fourth inning of the first game, Claude Passeau went the route for the Cubs with five-hitter for his l4th victory, Phil Cavarretta col- lected two singles in four trips and drove in two Chicago runs.
 The Cards frittered the nightcap away. With one out in the 1lth Bill Crouch, their fourth pitcher on the mound, Stan Hack on third and darkness settling fast, Don Padgett dropped Barney Olsen's fly ball and Hack raced home with the run that ended the game. Hack had walked and reached third on Stringer's single.
 Mort Cooper, second ranking Car dinal pitcher, gave up three hits and three runs in the three innings he pitched before Howie Pollet, Lanier and Crouch finished up.
 Pittsburgh climbed to within half a game of third by blanking the Reds, 40, in game cut to 4 Ia innings by rain. Rip Sewell held the Reds to one hit for his 18th tri- umph.
 Alley Donald pitched 6 five-hit- ter to beat the Red SoX, 6-3 and bring the New York Yankees their 18th American league pennant. The idle White Sox took over second place. Phil Rizzuto paced the Yam keeS' 10-hit assault with three hits.
 Bobby Feller won victory No. 9 as Cleveland defeated the Tigers, 7-6 in 10 innings

Dor unions and management intro
duced at the 1910 convention of the
American Federation of Labor was

tive Council at its mid-winter meet

ing, Administrator of the Wage and

ment Of Labor.
The committee recommended that
those workers employed in the "wool
section" Of the industry be paid not
less than 10 cents an hour and the
workers employed in the "othcr than
wool section" be paid not less than
35 cents an hour. A wage order

Senote Unit Considers
Suffrage For D. Ct G.

Washington, d. C.-Senator McCar-
ran, chairman Of a special sub-com-
mittce to handle the resolution intro
duced Jointly by Senator Capper and
Representative Summers for a pro-
posed constitutional amendment cX-
tending suffrage to the District OF
Columbia, promised full and complete
hearings on this long-standing con-
troversial question.
Since 1874 the laws for the govern
ment Of the nations capital have been
passed by Congress sitting as a sort
of municipal council. The laws are
administered by three commissioners
appointed by the President. No one
in the District Of Columbia has a vote
or any effective voice in determining
the laws enacted for the District or
the selection Of the officials to admin
lister them.
The Capper-S Summers resolution
does not in itself extend the vote to
the District Of Columbia, but would
amend the Federal Constitution to
vest in Congress the power to dca!
with the question. Under the amend
ment Congress could give the District
representation in both Houses Of Con-
gress and in the electoral college and
could also delegate to the local mu-
nicipal government such additional
powers as it deemed appropriate.
