Both are signed on a percentage basis, Sammy to get 40 per cent and Tony 20 per cent. The gate is expected to be worth $140,000. By PAUL R. MICKELSON Chicago, Aug. 2.—(®)—Tony Can- zoneri, chesty little bootblack from New Orleans, tonight aims his weapons at Sammy andell, one of the most elusive targets of the ring, in an audacious bid for this world’s lightweight crown. The two will battle i0 rounds to a decision for the tille in Paddy Har- mon’s gigantic punch bowl, the Chi- cago stadium. A record indoor crowd of 25,000 is expected to watch the duel. It is to be a skirmish between a clever boxer and a rugged, two fisted puncher and Mandell, the boxer, is an overwhelming favorite. The cham- pion expects to win handily by a de- cision; the challenger is confident of victory by a knockout. So clearly did the Rockford sheik turn back the title bid of Jimmy Mc- Larnin, a pile-driving hitter of the Canzoneri type. in his last champion- ship battle, that few observers grant Tony much more than a chance. Al- though the champion has spent the past year in comparative idleness be- cause of injuries, he has displayed impressive form during his workouts and his great left is apparently as busy as ever. Weight, too, was a disadvantage Canzoneri had to fight against. He expects to enter the ring from four to six pounds lighter than Sammy and among lightweights such a difference is a considerable handicap. Tony's advantage lie in his punch, his greater ring activity and his age. He is 22 and Mandell is 25. Canzoneri stacked his hopes on his right hand and his ability to sting the champion early and force him to slow up long enough so he can slip over his devastating smashes to the head. Both fighters were confident over the outcome and neither seemed wor- ried. “I do not like to make predictions but I forecast Canzoneri will not bother me any more than McGraw or McLarnin did,” Sammy said. “I will give all I have and I am of winning,” Tony countered. ll be a tough fight, though.” s battle will be the third Mandell has defended the title ‘ky Kansas in 1926. campaigning iterweig! title.

Campbell is a long distance from the American Association record, however, as Hall, a former St. Paul hurler, notched 16 straight in 1915. St. Paul's victory meant nothing else as far as the pennant race was concerned as the leading Kansas City Blues defeated Indianapolis, 4 to 2, and Minneapolis, another pennant hopeful, made it three out of four from Columbus by winning 3 to 2. ‘The Blues won out with a typical eight inning assault. With the score knotted at the juncture, the Blues bunched two singles and a sacrifice for the winning two runs and “Long Tom” Sheehan held the Indians in Home runs decided the other two games yesterday.

BISMARCK GOLFING TRIO TO COMPETE IN STATE TOURNEY Paul Cook, Tom Burke and Jim Slattery Will Represent Capital City Club COOK IS AMONG FAVORITES Several Other Local Golfers May Enter Competition on the Devils Lake Course Three members of the Bismarck Country club today announced def- initely they would compete in the tournament of the North Dakota state golf association at Devils Lake next week. They are Paul Cook, Tom Burke, and Jim Slattery.

With two victories over Jimmy Barrett and one over Bill Nimmo this season, the capital city youth has been picked to win state honors by many experts. Bar- rett and Nimmo will have a con- ceded advantage over Cook, how- ever, because of the fact that both have ‘played on the Devils Lake course for years.

That's what McGraw paid the Tampa club for Brush the other day. Last summer both the Giants and Tampa were dickering with the Pitcher. Brush wanted to sign with the Giants and did. He mailed in his signed contract at midnight one night. But his friends put over a fast one. Three hours before Brush mailed his contract to New York his friends wired the Tampa club over his sig- nature, accepting terms with it. A merry row was in sight. But Tampa threatened to go to Judge Landis, and McGraw withdrew his claim. INDIANA'S AVERAGE Indiana university's major athletic teams have an all-time percentage in games won of .558 since 1896.
