i i ONE WHISPER HAS BOMBER FIXED 10 TOSS TITLE BOUT Darky Retinue Hears Govern- ment Has Understanding Challenger Will Lose FACTS DISCOUNT MUTTERING Principals Mark Time Friday, Make Ready for Stiff Workouts Saturday Kenosha, Wis. June 18 —(?)— A ear record crop of rumors have be- sieged Joe Louis and his all-darky retinue since they pitched camp on Lake Michigan for the Brown Bomber's title shot against James J. Braddock but they all seem as flat as a can of stale beer. ‘The rumors and apparent facts are these: Rumor — The federal government, determined that a Negro never again shall win the heavyweight title, okayed the fight with the understand- ing that Louis would lose. Fact—This seems to be the biggest pumpkin of the entire crop. Twice a federal court returned verdicts in favor of Braddock so as to open the road for the fight Tuesday night. Rumor—Trainer Jack Blackburn is cutting Louis’ pugilistic throat, con- fusing his fighter and standing him up to settle an old score.

C.’s Win Will's Seedstore and Klein’s Clean- ers kept their records in second round of play in the City softball league unblotched Thursday night with victories over Shark's and Roo- sevelt Bar-as the Knights of Colum- bus broke into the win column with a 13 to 2 triumph over the Nash- Finch entry. The Will's aggregation, undefeated this spring in league competition, backed up Joe Zahn’s two-hit pitch- ing with an errorless defense and capitalized on five hits and five mis- plays to beat Roosevelt Bar 8 to 1. Home runs by Yeasley and Mein- hover pointed the way for Klein’s 7 to 4 victory over Shark’s and four two- baggers and a home run helped the Knights of Columbus outfit upset Nash-Finch 13 to 2. After Thursday night's games, Will’s and Klein's éach had two vic- tories against no defeats in City league second round play while Shark’s and the Knights of Colum- bus each had one win and one de- feat.

PRINCIPALS REST FRIDAY, PLAN HARD WORK SATURDAY Chicago, June 18.—()—Principals and promoters alike marked time Friday in their preparations for the world’s heavyweight title battle Tues- ay night between Champion James J. Braddock and Challenger Joe Louis. : Both fighters rested at their re- spective camps. Braddock, who scaled 198 after a workout Thursdey in which he belted his sparmates merci- Tessly, indicated he would spend the day quietly. Louis was expected to tare in a motion picture at Kenosi4, wi Braddock will box six rounds Satur- , day and four or five Sunday in his training windup. Louis also will go through drills on both those days be- fore packing to await his shot at the championship. Mike Jacobs, associated with Joe Foley in promoting the contest, said |’ Ell about $700,000 was “in the bank” in ‘advance ticket sales and that he still ‘was confident the fight will sell out all 80,000 seats.

Monteith, Hazelton physician, while he was refereeing a ball game in Bis- marck and one of these days he in- tends to return it to its original owner. Dr. Monteith found the lemon, dried up and shriveled to a third of its for- mer size, while rummaging through ® conglomeration of keepsakes re- cently. Carved in its skin were a date, the word Bismarck, and the names of Jchn Peterson and Johnny Homan. The doctor paused to think. “It all happened back in July, 1911,” Dr. Monteith said, “when the Hazel- ton baseball team went to Bismarck to ‘clean up’ that nest of sluggers. I went along as umpire to see that the Hazelton boys got a fair break, and doing a like service for the Capital City aggregation was Dr. C. E.

IN 7 INNING GAME Haley, Meyers Get Circuit Blows as Locals Stage 15-Hit Slugfest Bob Inman, stalwart Bismarck mghthander, pitched seven innings of No-hit ball Thursday night t o give the Bismarck Independents an easy 12 to 0 victory over Valley City. Inman retired 10 Valley City bat- ters via the strikeout route while his mates were hammering the offerings of two Hi-Liner chuckers for 15 well- hit bingles, two of them home runs and five doubles. In addition he led the Bismarck nine at the plate with three hits out of four chances. The first Bismarck tally came in the second frame when Inman took first on Bradner’s wild throw and scored on Meyer's long double to left field.” Doubles by Merrill and Leary in succession at the start'of the third inning and a pair of singles by Goets ard Inman accounted for four more runs and in the fifth circuit clouts by Haley and Meyers combined with Inman's two-base blow for a trio of runs, Merrill walked at the start of the seventh, advanced to second on Leary’s sharp single to center field and came home ahead of Leary when Haley doubled for runs 9 and 10. Haley counted ‘when Inman got his third safety and Inman brought home the last tally when Becker slammed @ long fly to right field, Only three Valley City men reached first, on an error, a walk and a field- er’s choice, and none got to second as Inman kept them swinging or forced them up ineffectively. Two misplays were chalked up against each team. Bismarck AB Ru Elofson, 2b 4'o ‘Merrill, . 3 COOKOKOCON Cc.
