In the very heart of the heavy- weight picture is the grinning face of the chunky fellow from Rumson, N. J., welterweight and, middleweight titleholder in his time, now at least as good as Sharkey because two learned judges and a referee com- promised on a draw after 15 rounds of hurly-burly battle in Ebbets field Wednesday night. Mickey turned in the most surpris- ing upset of many seasons as he ha- rassed the sailor through the battle that revealed Sharkey in another of his disappointing struggles and gave @ crowd of 32,000 a chance to boo and exult in his discomfiture. There was no questioning who the crowd that almost filled the National Jeague ball yard thought had won, but the arbiters arrived at the compro- mise decision by every possible route left open to them. Referee Arthur Donovan, for in- stance, thought the aggressiveness of the little fellow who gave Sharkey an advantage of 29 pounds, inches in height and reach, entitled Mickey to the decision. Judge George Kelly voted Sharkey the award apparently on the basis of his right hand punch- ing that gashed ‘Walker’s left eyelid in the fifth round and opened it wide in the closing session. Judge Charles F. Mathison chose the middle course and called it a draw, while the Asso- ciated Press score sheet counted up the same way, with seven rounds for ‘Walker, seven for Sharkey and one even. cuenta en Sa tatty of the ut dless 0! tu action, ‘as futile as the battling it- self, honors for he evening swept into the lap of Walker, the 169%-pounder who dared tackle a Sharkey weighing 198%, out-bulled and out-punched him for 10 rounds, and slipped k only when the embattled sailor ral- lied fiercely to try and save the day in the last four rounds. arkey found the range then with the long right hand punches he had been tossing in desultory fashion all evening, the short clubbing smashes in close that Lear ia wide the gash ickey’s left eyelid. a eakey fought one of his unin- spired battles. fe rales Bie art| ches throut ga omrpeet missing oftener early rounds, Sea ne. iandeds content to adhe fe ex- man force the fight. plained afterward he hurt the knuckles of his left hand in the first round and could not hook with that nd thereafter. neyalker amazed the critics with his dogged, firing tactics, -Hils ability to ’ take the big sailor's best punches hen they did land, and the deter- jnined left hand socking to the body that at times had a lot to do with Sharkey’s holding. tough little New Jersey man rs rom. might have stowed away @ less brave warrior.

France, Germany, England and the! Philippines were represented along with the United States and Canada. Harry Cooper, Chicago professional, who won the championship here last year, carded a 79 in a practice session, | and termed the Keller course a “bit more tricky” than in 1930. ‘Tony Mancro, last year’s runner-up, shot a 76 as gid Morton Smith, un- attached, who finished third in 1930.

Schmeling Expected to Be Through in Three Years New York, July 21—(?)—In the brawn, speed, and socking power of three young heavyweights, the cream of the rising crop, rest the fight pro- moters’ dreams of the million dollar Bates of the future. From widely separated parts of the) nation, from entirely dissimilar walks | of life, the three youngsters have; risen along separate paths, at difl- ferent rates of speed, until they stand lout today as the three heavyweight thopes for the’ future. They are Charley Retzlaff, from Leonard, N. D., Stanley Poreda, Union| City, N. J., and Steve Hamas, late of} the Pacific coast and Pennsylvania) State university.

Kremer Is Hard Luck Pitcher Of Year " paseo tee Pirates Do Not Back Him Up; Cubs Replace Qiants in Third Place Position By HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR. (Associated Press Sports Writer) When the nominations open for the champion hard luck player of the 1931 baseball season, Remy Kremer of the Pirates is in line for a good many votes. He has been pitching a fairly good brand of ball, but the Pirates seldom have backed him up and as a result he is far down the National League list with only six victories against 13 defeats. Wednesday he suffered an- other setback to make it four defeats in his last five starts, three of them by one-run margins. He lost to Brooklyn Wednesday 3 to 2. Pittsburgh won the first game 10-6. The Cubs furnished the real fea- ture for the National League as they edeged out Boston 5 to 4 in 11 innings and climbed back into third place. John McGraw came back to the Giants’ bench and promptly saw his team drop to fourth through a 4-3 de- feat at the hands of the Reds. With the American League race | looking more and more like a cut and dried affair, the Yankees stepped out to grab a share of the limelight. The Yanks got ‘only an even break with Detroit, losing the first game 3-2 as George Uhle held them to six hits, jand winning the second 9-5. But |Babe Ruth clouted two homers and Lou Gehrig one and Ben Chapman istole his 37th base, all in the second \game.

Seaver went to the semi-finals last year. Little disposed of the veteran Dr. Willing and lost to Gene Thomas, finalist against: Among the east's younger set, Maurice McCarthy, Jr., a bulldog of @ scrapper, has the game as well as the spirit to carry him quite a dis-| tance. McCarthy scored a hole-in- one and went 10 extra holes to beat George Von Elm in the second round of the 1930 tournament. IT MAY BE JOHNSTON Harrison R. (“Jimmy”) Johnston, who won the amateur title at Pebble Beach in 1929, has stayed away, from the competitive trails most of the summer in order to be in shape for @ comeback at Beverly. Nothing would strike a more pop- ular chord than a triumph for the Minnesotan, whose gallant finish at Merion last year just failed to put him in the qualifying fold. Coming a year after his victory on the west coast, this was a heart- breaking setback for Jimmy. He of- fered no alibis and took his place in the gallery to watch the big parade go on.
