By the Associated Press. EW YORK, August 19.—At the Municipal Stadium at Phila- delphia tonight Mickey Walker, king of world middleweights, tangles in a 410-round bout with Leo Lomski, the deadly body- puncher from Aberdeen, Wash. Mickey's crown will not be involved, but the bout may go far toward determining the next light-heavyweight champion, Tommy Loughran, matched with Jack Sharkey in the big heavyweight battle of the Fall, soon is to relinquish his 175-pound championship and Walk- er already has let it be known he in- tends to claim the crown. Lomski long has been considered a leading chal- lenger for that title.

STANFORD 'S RD. OUTLO0KISBRIGHT California Also Has Good Prospects—Bagshaw Fac- ing Task at Washington. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. ITHOUT any such nonsensi- cal formality as reading the stars, the writer is ready to affirm that both Stanford and California will be stronger and generally more proficient teams this yea: than last. Warner worked a lot last year with a young secondary backfield, training them in the new formations he will spring this year. They are all big and willing and the country will be hearing a lot about the four rough riders be- fore November is well established. Hoffman will be gone, but his departure will be accounted for by a better and 'bn%x;;r backfield bunch than played n 5 California is going to have one back who certainly will command attention— Moose Garrity, a transfer, who has everything back there at fuilback. Only three regulars have been lost by graduation, Phillips, Bancroft and Frizt. And what with some exceptional men coming up from last year’s fresh- man outfit and line regulars remaining, such as Reigels, Schwartz, Gill and Avery, the Bears should be able to pre- sent as stalwart a defense as anywhere in the country, while building up a year. In the backfield there will be Lom, Eisan, Schlicting, Barr and several other ball carriers around whom an of- fense of merit should be built, while the hard hitting Charley Schmidt also may come out. ‘Washington, with Ernie Bagshaw at- tempting to show those who said he was a poor coach that they were all wrong, does not, as a matter of fact, look too good. The Huskies’ cycle of supremacy experienced a_ reverse twist when that great Everett High School crowd which came down to Seattle six years ago went out into the wide, wide world. With such men as George and Pat Wilson, the Tesreaus, Brix, George Carroll and other Everett stars hang- ing around, Bagshaw had a lot of spark on the backfield and success perched upon the Huskie banner. But they have gone and their places seem to be illy filled. ‘But as generally happens when an important university has foot ball stars who have clinched all positions other good men go elsewhere, and so in the case under consideration men who might be valuable at Washington now are at California and Washington State. ‘Washi n’s chances depend upon Bagshaw’s ability as a developer rather than a coach who can take a good play- er and find the position in which he best functions. Idaho will not have much. It will be Leo Calland’s first year and he will be building for 1930. Washington State lost a lot of good men, but has ‘some promising material from the fresh- man team. Montana is nil as to pros- pects. Oregon looks very promising in the way of material—much better than here great rival Oregan State, where the losses have been many. University of California, at Los Angeles, is not too promising. IT'S JUST A HABIT NOW. SUGAR ISLAND, Thousand Islands, Canada, August 19 (#)—Ernie Reidel of the Pendleton Canoe Club, New York, won the international canoe pad- dling trophy for the seventh conseeu- tive year at the fiftieth annual regatta of the American Canoe Association.

Celtics Defeat Cherrydale; To Play Naval Hospital Nine LEXANDRIA, Va.,, August 19.— With Ralph Hamiiton’s shoots puzzling the opposition and the remainder of the team playing “heads-up” base ball, the St. Mary's Celtics defeated the Cherrydale A. C. of Cherrydale, Va., 6 to 2, yester- day afternoon in Baggett's Park to eliminate another contender for their Northern Virginia semi-pro crown. Hamilton held the Cherrydale batters to two hits and without & run until the ninth inning, when the invaders worked him for a couple of passes and then poled two more singles to cash in their only runs of the day. “Doc” Dreifus and Leon Riley led the Celts at bat, the former getting a triple, double and single, while Riley socked ‘Wesley McDonald’s slants for two doubles. The Cherrydale, nine's four hits, all singles, were evenly divided between Baker, Tililman, Atwell and McDonald. Manager Charles Corbett has booked the Celtics for a game with the Naval Hospital nine of Washington here next Sunday at 3 o'clock in Baggett's Park. Naval Hospital is one of the two ama- teur teams that has scored over the locals this season. J. F.

BY JOHN J. ROMANO. EW YORK, August 19.—The summary ousting of the Illinois Boxing Commission headed by Paul Prehn, smacks of politics and it may, not be the tonic Gov. Emmerson thinks the boxing game needs to retsore it to the healthy condi- tion the game deserves. ‘The replacements, Messrs. J. V. Clin- nin, George Getz and Fred Gardiner, business men of the highest standing, may not find the time to devote to the many and ’x%erplexlnl questions bound to arise. e sport is on trial and it is hoped that things quiet down so | hor that Gov. Emmerson will not have cause to go before the Legislature and ask for the repeal of the law. That Ticket Situation. Mr. Prehn, Mr. Mann and Mr. Luzzo were asked to resign soon after a pub- lished report that a large quantity of tickets for the Sammy Mandell-Tony Canzoneri contest were demanded by them. The report would have one be- lieve that the ruling trio used their of- fices to corner the choicest seats. Mr. Prehn vehemently denies this and sub- mits figures to prove his statement. Out of 959 tickets secured only 42 were in the first 10 rows, 138 in the first 20 rows adjacent to the ring and the re- mainder were scattered throughout the house and could not be classed as bet- ter than ordinary locations. Furthermore, these tickets were all paid for. Not a penny was made from the sale of these tickets, which were for the many friends and politicians one usually expects to demand choice seats dt all big gatherings. Mr. Prehn leaves with a bad taste in his mouth. He cannot very well be blamed for that. Had he been asked to resign without a false report circulated throughout the country, he would have willingly done so. Prehn had the best interests of the game at heart and has worked unceasingly to ferret out the bad element in the game and place the sport on the -high plane that it de- serves. Accomplished Much Good. Working without remuneration anc taking the bad with the good, Prehn has accomplished more good for the game than any other one person the writer knows of throughout the coun- ry. As president of the National Boxing Association, another payless job, Mr. Prehn made that body a forceful factor in the sports world. Twenty-six States and practically every foreign country in which boxing is permitted are mem- bers of the N. B. A. Prehn has not iven up his office and will continue to unction as the N. B. A, head until the next convention, which will be held at the Hotel Morrison, at Chicago, Sep- tember 15, 16 and 17. Many weighty problems will be discussed and new rules promulgated. New officers will be elected and the chances are that Mr. Prehn will be elected for another term. MICHIGAN éETS STAR.

BY SPARROW McGANN. EW YORK, August 19.—Vittorio Campolo, the roaming gaucho of the pampas whose exploils had been sounded throughout the length and breadth of the Americas, proves to be nothing more than a fence rider whose sole_ claim to a place on the pay roll'is height, weight and reach. It Wwas a case of another exploded phenom this week when the shori- limbed and barreled-chested Tom Heeney fought Campolo, a potentiel contender for the heavyweight title. If Campolo is a fighter of the first water one might as well recall Monte Munn from the legislative halls of the State of Nebraska and petition him to re- deem the prestige of North Americans. As bad as Munn was as a fighter, Cam- polo is far worse. Remember, Monte has a knockout over Campolo to his credit and that just about sums up Campolo’s worth. Puts Up Sorry Exhibition. Campolo knocked out Heeney, but he put up a sorry exhibition in doing it. Campolo h:e; plenty of heart in his big frame, »ut he does not seem to know what it is all about. It is quite ob- vious from the manner in which he conducts himself when hurt that he likes the fighting game but he does not know what to do with himself. His sense of ring generalship is hazy. His knees buckle when he is hit solidly on the chin and the way he turns around to spit out blood makes him a mark for smart boxers. As Campolo backed away to regain his equilibrium after one of Heeney's hooks had caught him on the jaw, more than one fight fan around the ring side last Thursday night wished that K. O. Christner or Otto Von Porat was in the ring with the pugilist froin the Argentine. It was freely commented that either the rubber puddler from Akron or the soulfui-looking Norseman from the Windy City could name the round and walk out of the ring with a clean knockout over the latest importation from the land which gave us Luis" | Angel Pirpo. Campolo is far from being a Firpo. A glance at the list of recent ar- | rivals from overseas, such as Ted Sand- wina, Charley Smith and Vittorio Cam- polo, will show that American has noth- ing to fear from the invaders with the exception of Max Schmeling. Sandwina Lost in Close. Sandwina has learned the English type of milling. He will stand off and snap in as pretty a jab as one would want to see. He can drop in a short right hander to the jaw when he elects to do so. At close quarters Ted is lost. He takes too many punches around the body before the referee A clip on the chin sets him to mixing it and unless one of his blows is a straight one, the trans- planted American is just a wee bit be- hind in his timing. Charley is being groomed by the veteran Tom O'Rourke and should bring him in some money, but that is about all. Smith will not cut many didoes when faced with top-notch opposition. Na- tive heavyweights have nothing to worry about unless Max Schmeling patches up his differences with the New York Boxing Com g.ission and is permitted to compete in local rings, or unless Phil Scott, the elongated Eng- weighing 165 pounds, he plays foot ball, | Routis’ manager, has promised Promoter | lish champion, turns a complete somer- | great skill. meet, the winner in a title engagement. — Py ball, basket ball and track with | Paddy Harmon that the Frenchman will | sault and shows more than he did on his last trip to this country. » m a cigarette its AST E / FAIR WORDS butter no parsnips . . . what smokers want in a cigarette is TASTE.
