COLD WATER FOR BOWL For no good reason some of the more skeptical experts have toss- sed cold water on the Garden’s new arena project, now under way ain Long Island City. It may be due to a dislike to | 4cross rivers or leave the metro- + |prefit by taking advantage now | politan mainland, if not to a N | “wrong angle.” | Anyway, the new Bowl is being |dug and the work will be com- | pleted in time for the Schmeling- | Sharkey affair, which probably will |be held late in June to avoid too much conflict with the interests that will be politically-minded at about that time. It would never do to have a heavyweight title fight in New| York while the Democratic chief- tains, among the best ringside cus- tomers, are getting their fill of oratory in Chicago. The Garden Corporation, mmus‘ many of the millionaires who once made up the famous 600, will be no less “in the red” in the long| run and may, indeed, show al of the opportunity to build its out- | door arena on a cut-rate or long- term financial basis. The money saved in ball park rentals over a few years should be enough to absorb most of the cost. — e — MORRISON TO ACCOMPANY TEXAS BOYS TO OLYMPICS DALLAS, Tex., May 4—Ray Morrison Southern Methodist Uni- versity football coach, has agreed to direct athletic activities of 50 Texas boys on a tour to the Olym- pics at Los 'Angeles this summer. Morrison will be in charge of the youngsters, who will travel overland and camp in the Pacific coast on a tour expected t con- sume 40 days. —————— RUBBER-TIPPED HURDLES SAVES KNEES OF JUMPERS EAST LANSING, Mich., May 4. Should Michigan State College’s hurdlers prove extra good this sea- son, Coach Miles W. Casteel will give credit to sponge rubber strips attached to fthe practice hurdles bars. Casteel points out that the best form for the timber toppers re- quires that they clear the hurdle by the oclosest margin possible. He equipped his hurdles with the rubber to avoid knee and leg injuries to his trackmen. Soon he says, a dime could hardly rest on the bars without being brushed BIG FIGHT 1S POSTPONED T0 LATE IN JUNE NEW YORK, N. Y, May 4— | The New York State Boxing Com- mission last night approved the postponement of the Schmeling- Sharkey heavyweight championship battle from June 16 to June 21. The postponement was sought by the Madison Square Garden Cor- poration in order to avoid conflict with the political national conven- tions meetings in Chicago. DIXIE TO WITNESS DAVIS CUP PLAYING NEW ORLEANS, May 4.—For the first time in history tennis matches in the Davis Cup tourna- ment are to be played in the South.
