ATTORNEY GEN.
 BACKS UP COSKEY
Full Support to Athletic Commissioner in Barring
 Team Wrestling

Hartford, Conn, Nov. 3-(UP)- An opinion of Attorney General Francis A. Pallotti today gave full support to Athletic Commissioner Frank s. Coskey's ban on team wrestling.
 The opinion pointed out that "the legislature intended that the phrase wrestling bout to mean a contest of two persons who seek to throw each other" and that 1t was the duty of the commissioner "to de- termine what is a wrestling bout for which you may issue a permit under the powers vested in you"
 PallotN suggested that since there are no written rules defining in detail what is meant by the phrase wrestling bout it will ob- viate further discussion on this sub- ject if you exercise the power vested in you by Section 2202 and make rules and regulations in conform ity with the intent of the legiSla- ture."
 The opinion made 1t possible for Coskey to draw up new rule plac- ing an official and written ban on team wrestling, with the approval of the governor.
 The opinion also was final blow to the New Haven Arena which last month lost its boxing and wrestling permit for staging a team wrestling bout in defiance of the commissioners orders. Since then Arena President Nathan Podoloff appealed to the governor in behalf of team wrestling. but Gov. Hurley backed up the commissioner.

YBARRAADDRESSES.
 BETHEL MEMBERS

Speaking at the first forum Of the current season given by the Beth-El Mems club at the Beth-El synagogue last night, foreign correspondent Thomas R. Ybarra emphasized that this country must take more vigor- ous action to improve relations with Latin America, before the Nazis make too deep inroads.
 Ybarra pointed out that the prin- cipal weakness in American relation ships with the nations to our south, is that, while this country has helped create native industries, 1t has not served as an adequate mar ket for South American products, Nazi propaganda has employed this argument in an effort to gain a more substantial foothold in these nations, the speaker said.
 Chairman, and presiding at the question period following the address was Dr. Sidney w. Jennes.

 Season in All History Is Predicted

Boston, Nov. 2 -- (UP) -- Retail stores face their most prosperous holiday season in history, United Business Service reported today.

 Tn other divisions of business and Industry strong seasonal uptrends ln activity are seen.
 Food and tobacco prices are still rising, and although consumer re- eistance Is increasing, the effect is largely offset by the ability of many to buy because of higher incomes

 H@isehold furnishings, furniture and Hoor coverings are all in strong demand despite high prices.
 Auto production iS still rising, though under last year, while ca- pacity operations are expected in papes, chemicals, ship building, and steel. However, building activity probably will slow down because of priority restrictions, tho Service said.
