LIGHTWEIGHTS SCRAP TONIGHT New York, Aug. 7.— (U.R) — A slender little Cuban negro, who has never been licked in 168 professional flights, and a sturdy am hitious young Hebrew from the rough and tumble Whitechap* 1 section of London will battle through 1U rounds, or less, at the Polo g rounds tonight. The remarkable thing about this bout between Kid Chocolate and Jack (Kid) B-rg is that even the most cynical boxing fan, disillusioned by repeated disappointments in fistic affairs, b lleves this meeting between the two aspirants for the lightweight championship is going to be a real scrap. Alter what transpired when Al Singer took the title away from what remained of Sammy Mandell last month, such confidence certainly ties rves to be more than its own reward, and there is every reason to believe that Chocolate and Berg will, for once, giving box lag fans their money's worth. As for the outcome of the bout, that is pleasingly uncertain. Berg will have nearly a 10-pound pull in the weights. The Londoner is a tireless, mauling type of tighter, with no science and possesses no re-.l punch. Chocolate, on the other hand, is the cleverest man, pound for pound, in the ring today, and a sharp hitter as well. Whether he can give away ten pounds and stand off a fighter of the rushing, two-fisted type he must meet tonight lemains to be seen. The men are battling ostensibly for a chance at the lightweight title so recently and so easily acquired by Singer. The odds are that It Chocolate wins, as he should, Singer will find some excuse to dodge the Cuban until next summer at the earliest. If Berg wins on points and doesn’t appear too dangerous, Singer may consent to defend his title against the Londoner. The Cuban trimmed Singer handsomely last September. The bout will not be broadcast. Madison Square Garden looks forward optimistically, to a gate of >150,000. o PRIMO OFFERS TO FIGHT BEST Chicago, Aug. 7 — (U.R>~ Although Primo Camera declares he is through fighting "set ups" and willing to meet any heavyweight in the world, it is doubtful that he will be given an opportunity to go through with his proposed fight at White Sox Park. Aug. 14. Primo and his manager. Leon See, arrived in Chicago yesterday but found that promoter Mike Malloy had not secured a satisfactory victim for the proposed bout. If an opponent is found, Camera’s appearance will depend on the Illinois state athletic commission which has baried See. "I will not allow Primo to fight unless I can manage and second I him," said See. "We don’t care I who the opponent is, but unless • o Illionls commission reverses its action and grants me a license there will he no fight. ■ Primo is ready to fight any fighter in the world.

The veteran pitcher had recovered from his “serious illness" and appeared in the hotel lobby, apparently in good physical condition. Neither Alexander nor his nurse would discuss the illness which prevented Alex from reporting to Toledo last Sunday and resulted in his release by the Mudhens. Except for the nurse’s statement that the illness “isn’t what you probably think it is" the nature of Alexander's sickness remained a mystery. Alexander refused to discuss his future plans but it was believed that he would join the House of David team which offered him a contract before he accepted Toledo's offer.

FINLAND GETS U.S.MINISTER'S HIGHEST PRAISE American Envoy Urges World Tourists to Visit Little Known Country By Frederick Landon, UP. Correspondent Helsingfors, Aug. 7 (U.R) "Finand in a country that I should wisli to be better known in my horn- - la ml." Edward E. Brodie, minister of the United States in this country declared in giving his impressions s nee arrival at Helsingfors In May. "When coming to this country with such Ideas about its climate and conditions of- life as are quite current abroad, the visitor cannot fail to be deeply impressed by actual conditions here," Brodie continued. “I personally have enjoyled much sunshine and experienced no arctic weath-r during my stay in this city. The summer climate here sometimes reminds me, in fact, of our splendid weather conditions in the western states, and I have bained th" impression that Finland lias a great deal to offer tourists. "it is true that every year there is a flow of s c veral thousand visitors from tlie United States to Finland. mostly people of Finnish descent who wisli to pay a visit to their old home-country. But it seems th a t increased Finnish propanganda could attract many more, visitors during the summer months, and I do not think that those who follow the call, could be disappointed. As regards international relations between the United States and Finland I am glad to be able to state that they are, and always have been, of a cordial character. Finland’s contribution to the . American “melting pot" is a comIparatively large one. These are

It de- | serves special att-ntloh that the new American tariffs do not affect Finnish' goods to any appreciable extent, and there is every prospect of fore'gn trade betwe-n the two countries developing along the I same favorable lines as hitherto. “The growing interst in FinI land of American capital has quite • recently be n documented by a $6. 000,000 investment in a Finnish . wall board enterprise. Also as regards loans Finland has in the last months been more than once the ’ object of the attention of American I I financiers.
