PARIS, Oct. 11-Paris is now
borrowing a page from the Ameri.
can fashion book, with the propos-
ed modernization of her ready-to
wear garment industry to provide
French women with smart, mod
erately-priced clothes.
A mission from the French dress
industry, which will visit the Unit
ed States this fall, will study the
American methods of mass produc-
ton and merchandising. Jean Al
hlalre, provisional commissioner
of the General Organizing Commit
tee of Quitting and Cloth Work
ers, will head the group, which
consists of eight experts in men S,
Women's, and children's outfitting
and the corset trades.
The visit will coincide with the
opening here of the recently Gre
ated Superior School of Garment
Industries, which will supply tech
meal as we'll as management ele-
ments to the various branches of
the industry.
NOT FOR EXPORT
There is no indication that
French dress manufacturers will ty
to create an export market. Allil-
aire said the intention of the ex-
banding industry is to improve
the quality Of ready-to-wear clothes
thereby creating a greater demand
in their domestic market.

! ii''Winner Toke All. Fight To
 Hayes By K. o.

Boston, Dec. 4. Outright fans in BoSton'S South End crowded across the Broadway bridge that separates them from South Boston today about the murderous one two punch with which Timothy fBuddy) Hayes knocked out Tommy Moore to settle a spirited intra- city feud.
 Hayes, a spider -lirnbed Irish lad with a mule-kick right hand, won a winner-take-all purse and further recognition as New England's out standing featlierweight last night when he fiattened Moore in the ninth round of their scheduled 10- round rematch bout at Mechanics Building.
 A noisy crowd of 3,704 fans lead Locomotive yells and occasionally EtoTmed the ringside to shout en- couragement to their favorites as South Finder Hayes and South Bos- tons Moore banged away at each other in one of the most action packed fights of the season.
 Right to Chin
 Moore, who lost a close decision to Hayes three weeks ago, appeared to have a slight edge over his op- ponent in the ninth round when lie was thrown slightly off balance by a sharp left hook to the head. AS e attempted to move away, Hayes struck him a pole-axing blow on the chin with his right and Moore toppled face-down on the canvas for the count.
 Except for the sixth round when Hayes had him on the verge of knockout, Moore did remarkably vel. He appeared strong despite the fact that he had to shed pound and a quarter at noon to weigh in at the required 130 34 pounds or lose $500 forfeit. Hayes, who weighed 126 1-2, insisted on that condition as well as the win rer-take-all basis in granting the rematch.
 The bout drew 8 gross gate of $4,8D4 for a net of $3,827.

Brass,
'NATURAL'IR IRA RIVALS SET
 FOR " FEATURE

Some of the best and most thrill ling basketball of last season in Wa terbury was furnished by the Amer ican Brass and U. s. Rubber of Naugatuck, each time they tangled on the YMCA court in the I. R. A. league. Tonight, they meet again, with few new faces, but the same old determination to battle down to the final whistle for the most points and victory.
 Both clubs have made one show ing to date, and each has won its first test of the current season. Brass showed first, against Scovill E. R. A., defending champions, and though pressed for three periods, won 48-39 game at the finish. Henry Koch, last seasons Chase center is the Brass pivot man this year; and his 13 points against Sco- will, plus 10 more by Paddy Damelio, just about gave Brass the ball game, over tough high-scoring Scovill array, minus it's handspring of last season, Joe Joyce, now with the Bristol Tramps of the state league. 1WO COE OHC USRubber smothered fair Wa terbury Tool club, by scoring just twice as many points as Tom Car mody's lads; 56-82. Lefty Farrar, once more was USR high-scorer, with II points; Chet Wojack got g more and Captain Tom Edmonds 8. Bob McDermott and Walt Yackow- ski came through with each.

HEARTS HUMBLE MORRIS HIGH
 BY42-1S SCORE
BY WIN MALONEY
 (Staff Wrter)

Approximately $50 fans roared their approval as Sacred Heart registered a 42 to 19 basketball vice tory over Morris High of Newtown, Conn, at Wilby gym last night. This was the second win in as many starts for the Conlanmen, who defeated the Watertown High Indians last week, 9 to 18, in an opening bid for the championship of the Western Connecticut Basket ball Conference.
 The East End array wrecked havoc on the Morris five early in the first period as Doc" Murphy and Capt Billy Walsh set 8 fast pace which ultimately gave their team Q seven point lead at the end of the first quarter. The score was Sacred Heart 8, Morris l. In the next period the local aggrega- ton concentrated more on their offensive play and ran their score up to 19 while they held the visi- tors to their one and only field goal during the first half of the game. Bob Markovic and Billy Walsh were the high scorers at the half with 10 points between them. The score at the half was 19 to 8. with Rivers and Palmer doing the only scoring for the visitors.
 Got Going
 In the third period the Morris high squad took the floor as though they were about to fool the ex- perts, who by this time had given Sacred Heart the game by land- slide, and scored 12 of their total of 19 points. Big" Ed Anderson and "Stubby" Herman Weik led the attack with 6 and points re- spectively, while Bob Markovic and Billy Walsh forged the. Sacred Heart lead to 34 at the end of the third quarter.
 Tn the final frame, both teams weary, Sacred Heart from pacing a fast game and Morris from trying tc keep up with them, the Conlan- men put the finishing touches on their decisive victory by again out- scoring and outplaying the visitors by a 3 to 1 margin and thus clinched their second win by a final score of A to 19.

 Half of Steve's solid 285 pounds was delighted because his New York Giants had beaten the fav- 6red Philadelphia Eagles, 2s to 21. The other IA Ia pounds were sorry because of the effect his tri- umph had on the fortunes of gray haired Greasy Neal.

Andy or ham and eggs. And if Damon, Andy or the ham ever re- acted to Phythias, Andy or egBs the way Steve did to Greasy on Sum- day they'd probably never have re- mained synonomous.l
 off the football field they are inseparable, at lunoheons, banquets and particularly at the hoss races. Greasy, being Q daily double fiend. will be at the two dollar combina- ton window 8 lot longer, perhaps, but when they leave the gate he1l be right beside Owen in the stands.
 But across the middle of a foot ball field they act like two deter mined danes at a nylon counter. It's dog eat dog and Steve doesn't make very tasty morsel.
 Got Wings Clipped
 Greasy found that out once again last weekend. His Eagles were fly- ing along at the top of the Eastern division of the National league in tie with the Washingto Redskins. Then along came Steve, the man mountain from Oklahoma, whose avoirdupois ruined his hopes of be- coming jockey, and brought those Eagles down.
 It was just one of the many ways in which the progame proves time and again its utter honesty. If any, body ever had a right to lose a game, and no. incentive other than victory to win it, Steve had. So with only one game remaining for both Washington and Philadelphia, Owen took the axe to his longtime buddy.
 That means that if Philadelphia defeated the Boston Tanks in the Quaker City this week, Washington has to win its remaining game. But the odds favor the Redskins to take the clincher and face the Cleve- land Rame of the Western division for the league crown.
 Greasy woefully admits it looks hopeless.
 still In The Running
 'This surely settled it." the old daily double player moaned after Owens lads had roared up from behind to win. "The Giants played game against us and the Redskins will win all the money"
 But, as the eye doctor puts it, we shall see what we shall see.
 The Redskins undeniably are red hot. They have the incomparable Slingin' Sammy Baugil of the buggy whip arm and Sticky Steve" Bagarus of the magnetic fingers.
 They also have one more oppon. ent-stout Steve Owens New York Giants.
 The Giants, of their record, shouldn't be classed as too much trouble. But they have two rousing upSets to their credit this year, one over Detroit at the time the Lions were leading the Western division, and the other over the Eagles. And some people believe mighty strong that old adage about things run nig in threes..
 It would seem & bit fitting, too, if stout Steve, after blasting the Eagles out of the running, would put them right back by scalping the Redskins. His old pal, Greasy, is 8 great hand at daily doubles and Steve sure would. like to. pre- sent him with a weekly double.
 So don't sell the man from Okla. homa short.
