Card to Be Headed by | Murphy and Manila W4 | Postponement of the next Amer- (ican Legion smoker one day—from February 10 to the 1lth—was an- nounced by Matchmaker Dolan. | The change was made on account , of a local business custom under f| which stores remain open on the cvening of the 10th of each month. Dolan has completed the card, ¥ lining up four bouts, one for four | and three for six rounds, making a jtotal of 22 rounds. The headliner, (| as previously announced, will bring Miles Murphy and Joe Manila to- 1 gether in a six-round battle. The semi-final will be a six- |round match between Slugger Wea- |ver and Harry Berkeley. They are !matched to fight at 140 pounds. Berkeley is a running mate of Mur- § |phy and Miles expects him to give | Weaver the hardest argument he {has had in a local ring. he special bout is deemed by n to be worthy of a final spot |on any card. In it Caesar DeGracia jand Kid Zamorra, two classy little | Filipinos, are matched for six {rounds. Zamorra undertook to bat- Itle Weaver on the Legion’s Decem- I ber card but the latter was too big {and hcavy for him to have a show. | DeGracia fought a draw with Louis !Nabalis on the same bill, and the | memory of that battle still lingérs to tickle the palates of the fans |who cheered both men through the |entire contest. Both DeGracia and Zamorra are 118-pounders, fast and |clever, and know how to hit with {both hands. The curtain raiser will be a four- {round go between Al Osborne, young |heavy slugger, and Henry Nabalis. ©1530 The A Py All Rights Rasarved | much more lucrative than engineer- 8 ing. 1 His rise to the rank as a champ- {lon has been swift and dramatic ‘When he graduated at Ann Axbm in 1929 he had little or no thought | of turning pro.

A pai of new New Yorkers crashed in with impressive debuts several weeks after the season started, and won themselves regu- in blood was badly lar places with the Americans and | Rangers. Vernon Ayers, a big youngster just up from amateur ranks, start- ed his major league career with | the Americans early in December | by making his way through the | world’s champion Montreal Cana- | diens to score a goal. Ayers played last year with the | “Sea Fleas” of the Toronto Yacht club and spent the early weeks of this season with the New Haven Eagles. A week after Ayers made his ap- pearance, Joe Jerwa, former Van- | couver star who also had been playing in the Canadian-American league, skated out on the Madison Square Garden ice in a Ranger uniform and performed a similar feat against the Detroit Falcons. Although six membe of the Montreal A. A. A. A. team, which won the Allan Cup last spring, are iworking with greater or less regu- larity - for the Montreal Maroons, Johnny Gallagher, another defense player,/ is. the outstanding one of | the group.

Jack “Red” Beattie, co-star wnh Joe Jerwa at Portland, made an impressive major league debut as | a forward when he went up to Bos- ton. Beattie broke into the scoring with a goal and an assist in his first game and scored again in his second. Two more recruits broke into Boston’s great array of for- ‘wards this year, “Smoky” Harris of | ‘Seame and Art Chapman of Prov- | idence. Another Coast league play- er, Ronnie Lyons, came to Boston, but was traded to Philadelphia. | In addition to adding two Amer- lcan Association players, Vic Des 'Jardines and Doc Romnes, to their blg list of forwards at the start of | the season, the Chicago Black-| hawks signed up a third, Eddie Vokes of Oakland, in December.
