40 : Number HUDKING EMANUE SCRAP HEADS LIST Will Clash in Los Angeles Tonight—Kelly to Meet Maloney Friday. By the Ascoclated Fross. EW YORK, April 15.—Ace Hud- kins’ 10-round scrap with Ar- mand Emanuel at Los Angeles tonight stands out as the high spoi in this week’s national boxing program. The Hudkins-Emanuel battle doesn't mean a thing so far as championships are concerned, but it's interesting be- cause it gives Hudkins a chance to préve that a good little man can beat a good big man. The Nebraska Wild- cat probably will be outweighed by 15 pounds, for Emanuel scales a few pounds over the light-heavyweignt limit. Hudkins is not even a big mid- dleweight. Con O'Kelly, the Irish heavyweight, is to get his third shot at Jimmy Ma- loney of Boston, in ‘Jess McMahon's new coliseum at New York n Friday night. O’Kelly held Maloney to a draw in their first meeting, but dropped a decision the second time. On the same night Izzy Scligartz, now campaigning on the Pacific Coast, meets Pablo Dano, Manila Filipino, in a 10-round fracas at San Francisco. Schwartz's fiyweight championship, awarded by the New York State Athletic Commission, will not be at stake, Al Singer, rapidly growing into the lightweight division, tackles Patsy Ru falo, Detroit boy, at Detroit on Fridas night, with Tommy Grogan of Omaha and Johnny Mellow of Detroit meet- ing on the same card. Both bouts are for 10 rounds. An_all-featherweight card is sched- uled for the Boston Garden on Friday and at Philadelphia tonight, King Tut, Minneapolis slugger, battles Honeyboy Finnegan, Boston lightweight, in a 10- rounder.

FINANCIAL WORRIES PILE UP ON PYLE 9y the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohlo, April 15—C. C. Pyle's pavement pounders were free to continue their cross-country jaunt as far as Springfleld, Ohio, today, but writs of attachment held in Columbus three automobiles and a van with much of the artistic talent of the side shows, while the promoter strove with finan- cial problems. Sheriff’s deputies kept unwavering eyes on the Pyle impedimenta in the interests of the Chevrolet Motor Car Co. of New York. There was no ex- planation of the difficulty except Pyle’s announcement that the concern had objected to his arrangement with one of its agents to pay for the vehicles in weekly installments. Overtures were opened for a settlement, said Pyle. The runners had & 40-mile gallop to Springfleld, with no attachments about them whatever but their bunions. Pete Gavuzzi of Southampton, England, was at the head of the pack.

Monro Hunter and George Diffenbaugh, the "blfi and little poison” combination of Int Spring, are looking forward to another victory next Sunday, Wwhen they again meet the men they van- quished yesterday in a match at the Washington Golf and Country Club. Maurice J. McCarthy, the intercol- legiate champion, and W. R. McCallum of W: . hofinh turn the tables on the famed Indian Spring duo in a return match next Sunday, although the task will be a more difficult one on the course of the Indian Spring Club, which Hunter and Diffenbaugh know as a cowboy knows his home range. Meanwhile George J. Voigt, North and South amateur champion, and %€d- die Held, former transmississippi and public links title holder, imarting under a crushing defeat administered to them yesterday by John C. Shorey, junior titlist of Washington and Harry G. Pitt, midatlantic amateur title holder, wereg playing at Burning Tree today, hoping to back the touch for grass greens, which was their downfall yes- y. Voigt and Held were downed almost single-handed by the splendid golf of young Shorey, who registered a 74 over the rugged Bannockburn course on a day when the atmosphere was heavy and the turf so slow that the ball stop- ped where it hit. The New York combination had just come to Washington from Pinehurst, where the shots the greens are en- tirely different from those to greens about the Capital, and they lacked the touch of proper play to grass greens, losing to Shorey and Pitt by 5 and 4. Hunter and Diffenbaugh won from McCarthy and McCallum by 2 and 1, although they were dormie 4 up piay- ing the fifteenth hole. With Voigt and Held at Burning Tree today was John Dawson, traveling rep- resentative of a golf manufacturing house, who is one of the Nation's most prominent amateur golfers. Dawson also played the Bannockburn coursc yesterday. The match at Washington with the Indian Spring professionals red against the amateurs of the local club found Diffenbaugh the steadiest of the quartet, scoring a 75 to lead the four players. Hunter had 76, while Mc- Carthy was 77 and McCallum 78. None of the four played good golf, for Dif- fenbaugh won the third end fourth holes par to go into a lead the 20D | professionals never relinquished. They also won the seventh hole with a par 4, but McCarthy won the ninth with a par 3, and the professionals turned up. Hunter ran down a 30-foot putt on the eleventh green for the only birdie of the match to win the hole and he also won the twelfth hole with a par 4. From this point all the holes through the fourteenth were halved. But Mc- Carthy registered a 4 on the fifteenth to win, and McCallum annexed the six- teenth, leaving the Indian Spring duo dormie 2 up. The seventeenth hole was halveq in 5s, and the match was over. The return match next Sunday will start at 2 o'clock. Shorey was the star of the match at Banrockburn, playing the first nine in 35, with he and Pitt turning 3 up on Volgt and Held. The latter pair apparently were unable to negotiate the heavy greens at Bannockburn, and had lost the touch on pitches and putts. Shorey won the second hole with a birdie 4 and the third with a par 4, while Voigt and Held won only the hole on the outward journey when Held sank a 4-foot putt for a birdie 2 at the cighth. Pitt chipped into the cup on the tenth for a birdie 4 to win the hole, and Shorey won the match with a par 4 on the fourteenth. Both matches had fair sized galleries considering the overcast day and heavy turf. ‘Two golf tournaments are scheduled for tomorrow. The first event of the year for the Women's District Golf Association will be played at Bannock- burn, when neary twol-score woman players from clubs about the Capital Wwill gather for a miniature tournament.

St. John’s and Hopkins, All Title Caliber. I of Maryland. In 1928 the Navy, Johns Hopkins, Maryland and Rutgers shared the No. 1 rating. St. John's of Annapolish now threate ens to horn in on the title fuss. St. John's has found the two pleces miss- ing from his puzzle of last year. With ‘Thomson, a transfer from Swarthmore, at attack, and Smith, from the Navy, at defense, the St. John’s combination ap« peared complete. There isn't a notice= ably weak link in it. Maryland is off to a good start. In three games the Terrapins have scored 37 and permitted only 2. New goals pe! York University, Randolph-Macon and Cornell were squashed. Have Clean Slates. However, the Terrapins’ record is hardly more convincing of champlione ship possibilities than the Middies’, who also have won three games, scored 2 points less than Maryland and yiclded the same number, Both St. John's and Johns Hopkins are unbeaten, too. St. John’s 4-to-3 victory over the Army Saturday was significant. The Cadets have a high rating. It was a triumph over West Point that helped a lot to give Rutgers a conspicuous place in the sun last year. Lacrosse fans, rapidly inereasing in number, will focus Saturday on a battle between St. John’s and Rutgers at An- napolis. This will have much to do with the ranking of both. The Maryland championship as well as the national will be involved in a scrap, April 27, between St. John’s and the Terrapins at College Park. Tody Riggs, athletic director at St. John’s, is a former Maryland athlete. Today Maryland is at Geneva, N. Y., playing Hobart. Another victory for the Terrapins has been predicted.

Bucknell's ball team will visit the Hilltop tomorrow, play Navy at Annap- olis Wednesday and battle Catholic University at Brookland Thursday. Gallaudet, which has won its last three games, will tackle Fort Leonard at Kendall Green on Wednesday. Gal- laudet is exceeding expectations on the diamond. Konrad Hokanson has been the pitching star. Thus far the Kendall Greeners have been the only winning team among Washington colleges. Maryland, which is about out of the running for, honors in the Tristate the herys | Gonference, play V. P. 1. Priday at College Park in a championship game.
