The Boston Red Sox unleashed all of their batting power yester- day and 12n up the season’s larg- est score with the Washington Sen- ators as the victims. The Red Sox| made 22 hits in the game and 10| runs in the fourth inning alone. Luke Appling’s tenth-inning sin-| gle scored Joe Kuhel and won| the game for Chicago over St.| Louis.

The line, average about 195 pounds, will be heayier and the backfield will be about 175 again. Line ~ stars returning Capt.

Timmons Back In the backfield, Charlie (Tuffy) Timmons line-smashing fullback, is ready ‘to step back into his old job. Others lar duty include Chippy Maness and Aubrey Rion, scat-backs who starred”in the Navy victory last fall; George Floyd, another speed merchant; Dan Coleman, capable 1938 reserve fullback out with in- juries last season; Roy Pearce and Norwood McElveen, fine blockers. Maness probably will take over the punting and passing but he’s no McFadden. Help is looked for from Sid Tinsley and Booty Payne, freshman sensations last :year. The Tigers will be one of the favored teams in the Southern Conference on their past record. The “Big Four” in .the order of present prospects, is Duke, North Carolina, Wake Forest and Clem- son with South Carolina. a pos- sible dark horse, Of these, the Tigers will meet only Wake Forest and South Caro- Lna. here ‘will be two other conference foes, N.

Brown showed spurts of his good form but failed to keep the steady pace of punching that his nagging, hard-' hitting adversary displayed. | In the opening round, both men started out a little cautiously and fought about an even fight, But in the second stretch, Brown re-| ceived a bloody nose which he kept| nursing throughout the battle, and, from then on he fought in and out, and was forced to hold on | many tim | Brown's Right Hand Punch | Brown effective with his | right hand in the second and third -‘ruunds and soundly jarred Tram- bitas with it. He outfoxed Tram- | bitas in close quarters and opened |up with rights and lefts in the middle of the ring which Tram- bitas returned in good fashion. both men did considerable body | punching, but Trambitas took his measure with several solid blows | via the left hook route. | The fifth round Brown showed 1his last real spark at throwing solid punches, but from then on he hung on considerable, while way to victory. Brown failed to keep a steady pace the latter five rounds. He { was continually backing up, and | fighting by spurts. He even spurted | in the final round, while Trambitas kept boring in and punching. | Trambitas weighed 145 pounds to | Brown’s 149. | The remainder oi the fight card |was just average, with the Pete | Villa-Gene Lee fight probably the most interesting. Both men fought ,a wide-open, haymaker scrap. The i fight ended in a popular draw, | with both men so tired at the final | gong they could hardly stand. Villa started the fight like he was on his way to an easy victory, as ne hit Lee with everything but the water bucket, but Lee came back the last three rounds and evened things up enough to gain his draw, Weights: Villa 108%, Lee 108. Paleza-Brcwn Go The second fight of the evening turned out to be one of those affairs where one man dances ®nd the other dances also. Steve Paleza and Roy Brown faked and danced the entire fight, landing few solid blows, It was a draw, but Paleza, after getting angry in the second round, drew the championship for making faces, He snarled and growled all over the ring the rest of the scrap, but that was all. ! Paleza claimed a foul blow in the third round, and was given a short { rest, then finished the fight. Pal- jeza weighed 132 while Brown | tipped the scales at 136%.
