HI9 FRIEND - WHAT HAS HAPPENED? This is the first of a series of personality sketches on out- standing men in the major league training camps.

During those years he worked hard, always with the idea of some- time obtaining another major league trial. “I made a study of every batier in the league.

Having an eye peeled for law |breakers, Bill spied a man at the |university gym—a face that some- how was familiar. | Closer scrutiny brought recog- |nition, and Bill called the sheriff of Tuscaloosa county to take the |man into custody while he tele- |phoned his father at Eutaw to come and get his prisoner—wanted in Bill's county since 1930 to answer |to a charge of grand larceny. Within one short week of the balmy month of June, 1932, metro- politan sporting experts were called upon to grapple with the Pough- keepsie Regatta, the Sharkey- Schmeling heavyweight title fight and the National Open Golf cham- pionship, in rapid and somewhat confusing succession. By the end of the week most of tham had difficulty reca whether Gene Sarazen’s of the California stroke oar or just what kind of a niblick shot Schmel- ing was using on that eye of Shar- key's. As a result of a brand new deal this year, the Poughkeepsie Regat- ta is off entirely and the Open Golf championship is shifted to Chicago, leaving New Yorlers free to concentrate on a double feature showing of the manly art. Both Will Draw The two big scraps now billed for June, Schmeling-Baer on June 1 at the Yankee Stadium under Jack Dempsey’s promotion, and the Car- nera-Sharkey championship fight in the Madison Square Garden Bowl, probably two or three weeks later, represented the Big Town's assertion of confidence in fistic fu- tures. Both bouts should make what is' regarded in these times as consid- erdble money. The million-dollar days of boxing are gone indefinite- ly. In fact I doubt if this gener- atlon ever will see anything com- parable to the palmy days of Tex Rickard again. But these two af- falrs are “naturals” from the box- office angle. Each should draw in excess of $300,000 cash. The Sharkey-Carnera match should draw a capacity house, not only because of the peculiar inter- est always attached to a heavy- weight title bout, but because there will, be thousands morbid minded enough to pay money for a look at thé man mountain whose blows sent Sharkey's protege, Ernie Schaff, into oblivion.

DIETZEL-GRAY DUEL LOOMING CAGE CIRCLES DALLAS, Tex., March 30.—News that Adolph Dietzel, Texas Chris- tian scoring ace, will be playing basketball again next winter has cent Southwest conference fans to anticipating a “duel” between him and Jack Gray, University of Tex- as forward.

Enthusiastic golfers who play whatever the weather have oflcn' ‘[elc their enjoyment has been spoil- ed because, while they were ade- quately protected, their caddies suf- fered from the rain and wind. The outfit consists of water- proof cape with hood attached, a commodious affair sufficient to pro- tect the whole of the caddie bag from the rain. As the scheme is to issue the uni- forms only to approved caddies, it will give club officials complete | control of this type of labor. Golf- ers will be warned not to employ | any caddie unless he has an offi- | cial uniform. 88-CENT RESERVED TICKET NEW BAIT FOR GRID CROWDS| ST.
