English Viscount Beats London Cop in 4-round Fight Gilford, England, April 3.-(?—| In a rousing four-round fight, Vis- count Knebworth, 25-year-old son night defeated Policeman Bone, a young London “Bobby.” ‘ Viscount Knebworth, a welter- weight, has achieved:a reputation as an amateur boxer. He was too; fast for Bone, who although a! novice. was not inexpert when it| came to exchanging blows with the representative of the nobility. Viscount Knebworth is a direct descendant of Edward Bulwer Lyt- ton, poet, novelist, orator and states- man. He gained prominence as a boxer while at Oxford. Hans Lobert, veteran third base- man of other years, has signed as coach with the New York Giants for this season. AS ANY IMPORTED Will Scrap on Fort Lincoln Card| QUAKER CITY TEAMS HOME Athletics Beat Phils 8-5—| Giants Take Senators 10-1 —Yanks Beaten BY BRIAN BELL Associated Press Sports Writer New York, April 3.—(@)—As 14 major league teams are drawing nearer home day by day, they may view with some alarm the bad ex- ample set by the two Philadelphia clubs already at home-working over- time before the starting bell rings. The family argument of the Ath- letics and Phillies became so heated yesterday that it was necessary to play 11 innings before the Ath- letics won, 8 to 5. The Phillies came from behind to tie the score in the eighth but in the 11th inning they committed numerous baseball sins, including a balk. Larry Benton met the challenge to pitch nine innings for the New York Giants by turning Washing- ton back with one run, while the National leaguers were counting 10. Benton got a home run. The world champion New York Yankees saw the Atlanta Crackers smash out 19 hits to score 10 runs, just enough. Lou Gehrig got three triples. Cubs Beat Pirates The bubbling spirits of the Chi- cago Cubs were near the boiling over point as they shelled the Pittsburgh Pirates into submission for the fifth time. The score was 6 to 4. Art Nehf pitched seven Hoylees of good lefthanded base- all. Brooklyn continued to go along under the momentum of hard hit- ting behind good pitching and won from Jacksonville, 12 to 4. The veteran Bill Doak shut them out while he was pitching. The St. Louis Cardinals stopped Knoxville of the “Sally” League, 9 to 8, two former cripples, Ray Blades and Chick Hafey, leading the winning attack. Blades got four hits. Slightly stunned at Tulsa by a first inning home ran with the bases full, the St. Louis Browns nye pecking away until they won, Runs Are What Count Chicago’s White Sox won from Memphis, 5 to 3, because they were paying off on runs and not hits, the big leaguers falling behind in safe- les, Jake May and Ray Kolp pitched so well for Cincinnati that the Reds were able to blank the Louisville Colonels, 7 to 0. Vie Sorrell and George Smith shut out Del Pratt’s Waco club as the Detroit Tigers scored seven runs, aided by five hits from Harry Rice’s bat.

PHEASANT IS NOT ~, | PUGNACIOUS BIRD, Pheasant Interferes With Domestic or Other Birds i | Bisbee, N. D., April 3—)—Ds- | nial that the Chinese ringneck pheas- it interferes with other game birds or domestic fowls is contained in a letter from Harry T. Rogers, who has charge of the New York state Cr farm at Sherburne, N. Y., to . P. Peterson, North Dakota game and fish commissioner. Discussing the possibility of the chinese pheasant interfering with other birds as discussed in a report once issued by the North Dakota game and fish commission, Rogers said: “The Chinese ringneck pheas- ants are the least pugnacious of any of the game bird family. As I have _ previously stated, I have raised thousands of them and I am always in touch with other game farms conducted outside of New York, and «!so private game farms, and I have yet to hear of a com- plaint of these birds making an at- tack on a rooster, (commen barn- toe or any other kind of This, ladies and fight fans, is a touching scene from the Leo Lomaki-Joe Lined Bose peed bee igen Sekyra light heavyweight elimination fracas at Madison Square el Piha Sigtaae aie Wen ace 'New York.

BYRNES Local Scrapper Fights Minot Iron Man in Beach— Byrnes in Pierre Lee Cav knuckle-thrower, is to fight Herman Ratzlaff, Minot’s conqueror of Earl Orton, in a 10-round main event at Beach this coming Saturday night. At the same time that Mike Brady, Cavanagh’s manager, made this announcement, he also stated that negotiations had been practical- ly completed for a Cavanagh-Felix yrnes scrap in Pierre, S. D., on April 10, This is a oa calendar for the right-crossing Billings By Ratz- laff made his debut before Bis- marck fans against Bat Krause here on February 28, and the Capital City fans needed no binoculars to see that Ratzie carries plenty of guns. This fact has been proven on three different occasions since that night. To his scalping list, the Minot Iron Man holds a decisive victory against Earl Orton, the mauling Fargo youngsters, who slapped Jimmy Du- gan into unconsciousness on Febru- ary 28 here. Odds Against Him Lee will enter the Beach ring with the odds against him. After nurs- ing an infected anatomy for the past month, Lee has just returned to shape. Ratzlaff has been working steadily during all that time and should be sharpshooting with the best of them. From Beach, Cavanagh will jump to South Dakota’s Capital City. In the encounter with Byrnes, Lee will clash with the welterweight champ of the Coyote state and it will be a clawing, slamming affair, for both boys like to mix. If Lee can_earn the duke over Ratzlaff and Byrnes, he is made. But a long 1 does no fighter good and the fans are pulling for Lee to get a standoff and then a rematch when he is in tip-top shape. ...
