July 23. — KU.Rf Tony Galento, the National Boxing association’s No.. 1 heavyweight challenger, was brought to the Orange Memorial hospital last night suffering from pneumonia. His illness caused cancellation of his bout with light-heavyweight champion John Henry Lewis at Philadelphia next Tuesday night. Galento was placed in an oxygen tent. His temperature was 104.4 and his pulse 120. Before going to the hospital. Galento was examined by Dr. Jos-1 eph Higi of Orange, and Dr. L. M. i Jacobs of the Pennsylvania athletic commission. Immediately after the examination, promoter Herman Taylor of Philadelphia announced that the Galento-Lewis 15-round bout had been called off. Dr. Higi described Galento's illness as an "influenza-pneumonia, which may keep him in the hospital from five days to three weeks if he responds properly to treatment. He is a very sick man and probably will not be able to return to the ring for two or three months, at least." Dr. Higi said Tony's training exertions may have lowered his resistence, although he did not believe that his paring down from 240 pounds to 226 liad anything to do with it. The Galento-Lewis bout originally was scheduled for Philadelphia’s municipal stadium on July 13, but it was postponed until Tuesday to allow Galento more time to train for the Arizona negro, who wears the light-heavyweight crown. It was expected to draw a gate of more than $150,000 because both the Orange saloon keeper and Lewis are popular scrappers in Philadelphia. 0 Casting Defeats Fort Wayne G. E. The Decatur Casting company softball team defeated the Fort Wayne G. E. club at Fort Wayne Friday night in an exhibition : game, 4-1. Earlier in the week, the Casting team was defeated in an exhibition game at Lima, Ohio, 12-8. o Trade In A Good Town — necufnr

Earl Peters, state director of the federal housing administration. The conference in Fort Wayne Is one of a series being conducted throughout zone No. 3, in which Indiana is situated, by H. Evert Kincaid, of the FHA land planning division, nationally known expert on subdivision development, and a member of the American city planning institute. Mr. Kincaid will work in co-operation with Mr. Peter’s state office and together they will give advice and counsel with reference to subdivision standards, plot layouts, and other technical matters. Mr. Kincaid will remain in Fort Wayne for a week in order to assist developers in their proposed and existing projects. At the conference Tuesday, the views of the federal housing administration with reference to subdivision development will be explained anti discussed and the FHA subdivision standards outlined. 1. Appropriateness of the site and its accessibility to employment, schools, and to commercial centers. 2. Adequacy of utilities and street improvements. 3. Protection provided by zoning and suitable deed restrictions. ■ 4. Conformity to sound planning practice. 5. Evidence of demand for the type of home contemplated. "The evidence of a demand can be determined by careful study of i the market,” according to Mr. Kinsaid. "Results of such study should indicate the type and price range ' of houses which will have the readiest sale within the proposed subdivision and consequently some- j thing of the manner in which it should be planned and developed. Other important considerations are' the trends of residential growth within the city and of business and industrial conditions, particularly as they may effect the income groups under consideration."
