Ever since the night of March 5, Paul Harper, the popular young Texas mat ace. has wanted to return to Indianapolis for a wrestling . it the Armory. He has in* ststrd, however, that his opponent lie Billy Edwards, the exponent of the "chiropractic” hold. Harper has a sound reason for wanting to meet Edwards. It was the Dallas Tex.) grappler who used his pet hold to defeat Paul here on March 5. Harper grabbed the first tumble in that bout and •hen fell a victim to the “chiropractic” and was unable to return to the ring to finish the tussle. When the two clash in one of the feature attractions on the Hercules A. C. wrestling bill at the Armory tomorrow night Paul figures his account with Edwards will be squared. Paul scales 220 and Edwards. 215. Matchmaker Lloyd Carter has a “bargain bill" program to offer. In the other feature. Jim McMillen, 225.

1936 A. B. C. Here Looms as Greatest in History Local Officials Set Goal at 3000 Teams; City Quota Is 1500; Organization Work to Begin.

BV BERNARD HARMON Local bowiing officials, who were instrumental in obtaining the 1936 A. B. C. tournament for this city met yesterday in an informal session and * laid plans for the activities necessary to put over one of the greatest tourneys of all time. Walker W. Winslow, president of the Indianapolis Bowling Association: Lester P. Koelling, first vice president; Norman Hamilton, secretary: Robert H. Bryson, past presij dent and lifetime member of the American Bowling Congress: Henry j Davis of the Indianapolis Conven- '< tion Bureau, and Herman Deupree, publicity manager of the local A. i B C. committee, were present at the I confab in the Hotel Severin. With their goal set at more than 3000 entries, Mr. Winslow, in addressing the group, stressed the importance of co-operation of every bowling-minded citizen of Indianapolis. He stated that, if Syracuse t with a population of 214.000. can put ! 1200 booster teams into the event, Indianapolis should be able to put at least 1500 teams on the floor in the 1936 gathering.

Stock to Be Sold With several large eastern cities fighting for the 1937 event, it is expected that the entries of those centers will be the greatest in the history of the A. B. C.. With such prospects in sight, Indianapolis, with the support of its citizenry, should stage the greatest show in the history of the annual congress. An A B. C. tournament company soon will be formed, with officers elected and stock offered for sale. Tire sale of this stock is to cover the preliminary expenses in staging the event. Thirty-two alleys will he constructed in the Fairgrounds Coliseum by the Brunswick-Balke Collender Cos. at the cost of S3OOO per alley. 30.000 to Visit City The event in previous years has been completed within a period of six weeks, but. with the recordsmashing entry in sight, it is expected that two months will be required to complete the schedule. During these two months of action, | 30.000 persons will visit the city and more than one million dollars will be left with the local hotels, restaurants and otfyer business places. Another meeting will be called within a short time, at which a program will be drawn up that will keep every local ten-pin follower busy until the first squad faces 'he maples next March in the 1936 re- j newal of the great classic.

The next Indianapolis troops to descend upon a national tournament will be the local party of Knights of • Columbus teams, who, next Saturday morning leave for Peoria. 111., w here the annual meet of that lodge is in session. Twelve teams, embodying 70 bowlers. along with a score of followers, w ill make the journey aboard a Big Four special tram arriving at the tournament site late in the afternoon. The teams will go into action at 10 p. m. on the Auto Pans Recreation Alleys, where the tourney is being conducted. Some of the city's leading keglers are represented in the K. of C. con- j tingent. and. if they reach the scores I of which they are capable. Indianapolis should be well represented when the huge prize melon is sliced at the conclusion of the event. Jerry O'Grady, Leo Foley, Freddie Schleimcr. Louie Dugan, Karl Kernel, Homer Vogelsang. Chris Orphey and Tony McCann are among the individual stars invading the tournament city. The special train will be in change of Joe KirkhofT of the local council of the K. of C- and Dooley Cooper, city passenger agent of the Big Four Railroad.

Wood Tunes Miss America for Speed Run Veteran Boat Racer Hopes to Break Own Record of 124.86 M. P. M. BY JAMES S. BEALLE United Press Staff Correspondent MIAMI BEACH, Fla., March 25. —The world's fastest speed boat and the man who drove her 124.86 miles an hour in 1932 will ride again tomorrow at dawn. Final motor adjustments were made today on Miss America X and her white-haired owner, Gar Wood, ordered her in the water for a test run tomorrow morning. The “test run" might be an assault upon the record Wood and Miss America X established at Detroit. But if the -craft does not behave smoothly, Wood will not open the throttle. Speed runs in narrow Indian River will be few, the veteran p.lot indicated. Salt water damages the mahogany speed boat. And a speed run in Indian River means a deafening roar in Miami Beach, where millionaires sleep late. Mechanics have installed new superchargers, stepping Miss America’s already tremendous horsepower from 6400 to 7400. Wood believes his world's record will be increased before he returns to his Detroit home. The present record was established in fresh water. Salt water is more buoyant, the resistence will be decreased, and with the added horsepower, Wood hopes to skim along the river at a speed well above 125 miles an hour. He will not predict how much higher. Vvnen Miss America established the present record, Wood had waited 10 days for a calm waterway, and, not finding it, ran anyway,- across a wind-ruffled stream. He believes the speedboat could beat the record in the same river if it were calm, and he is confident of anew mark here under more favorable conditions.

Braddock Without Opponent in Title Bout Eliminations Irish Heavy May Not Get Chance at Schmeling. Bj United Press NEW YORK. March 25.—James J. Braddock, veteran Jersey Irishman who fought his way back from pugilistic oblivion to a place among the leading heavyweight contenders, today found himself without an opponent in the eliminations to produce a challenger for champion Max Baer. Primo Camera has bolted the Madison Square Garden ranks to fight Joe Louis next June for the Twentieth Century Sporting Club, and Max Schmeling will demand a title fight on the strength of his knockout over Steve Hamas. When Braddock eliminated Art Lasky Friday night by winning a 15-round decision, he eliminated himself as well, unless the New York State Athletic Commission demands a Schmeling-Braddock bout. The commission meets tomorrow. However, Joe Jacobs, manager of the German, reiterated that Schmeling will not fight unless it is against Baer. As he has the one fighter likely to draw a worthwhile gate, the match generally if regarded as forthcoming.

The Theatrical World “Mary of Scotland’ to Open Engagement Here BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

MANY headliners on the stage and screen today received their early training in stock companies. Pauline Frederick, who plays the role of Queen Elizabeth in "Mary of Scotland." which opens its engagement at English's tonight, is no exception to the rule. Miss Frederick was born in Boston and after attending a boarding school there she became acquainted with the theater through a ~tock company. It was the custom of her teacher to take the girls of her class to matinees on Saturday. At 16, Miss Frederick obtained an interview with the manager of this company and begged him to allow her to join the organization. The next season, over the objections of her family, she joined this company, but success was far around the corner for her. One day, a New York manager was looking for new talent and he saw her in a small role. She was offered a musical comedy role and accepted. The next season, Miss Frederick became the dramatic discovery of the year with her work in the leading role of “Joseph and His Brethren.” Stardom followed rapidly and for years she has been a star in her own right both on the stage and screen. ana IN “Mary of Scotland” she is sharing stardom with Helen Hayes and Philip Merivale. The latter will be seen as the Earl of Bothwell. the role which he created in New York. Mr. Merivale won honors on the stage with Mrs. Patrick Campbell in “Pygmalion” and followed that success in the Belasco revival of “The Merchant of Venice” as Bessanio to David Warwick’s Shylock. He appeared in “The Swan,” “Grounds for Divorce,” with Jane Cowl in “The Road to Rome” and “Jealous Moon.” He is best known here for his performance in “Cynara.” “Mary of Scotland” tonight and tomorrow afternoon and night will observe a very strict curtain. The night curtain is at 8:15 and
