Later in the summer, when most | of the tracks are closed, it may be a different story. Club owners hope so. Most of them started the 1934 pennant race burdened with debt and faced with attendance un- certainties. Form sheet dopesters figured the Dallas Steers to cop the bunting.

The same thing goes for Ross, who will have to spot McLarnin at least seven pounds, probably more, and try to cope with a fighter who carries dynamite in either fist.
