‘N 84 SPORTS. - THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1929. SPORT VON PORAT FOULS HINA 1N'2D ROUND Victor and Dempsey, Referee, Booed as Heavyweight Go Ends in Fiasco. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, December 10.—Phil Scott, the gangling British heavyweight. champion, today was the possessor of a ring decision that proved nothing much of anything. Shufflin’ Phil, with an agonized Junge that seemed prompted somewhat by second thought, fell to the canvas in the second round of his bout with the black-thatched Norwegian, Otto von Porat, last night, after being hit low by 8 left hook. - Af(er considerable hesita- tion and a good deal of reluctance upon the part of the referee, none other than Jack Dempsey, Scott was awarded the Verdict on a foul to the accompaniment of a tremendous roar of disapproval frem the crowd of some 15,000 fans. Thus, what was to have been the star 12-round attraction of the much ball hooed Christmas fund show, the heav weight battle to help determine a logical opponent, for Jack Sharkey in a final championship test. came to a sudden, inconclusive and thoroughly unsatisfac- tory finish.

EW YORK, December 10.—The National League met today N without an issue except an in- grown intent to win the next world serles and equally as much ambition on the part of seven clubs other than Chicago to defeat the Cubs for the pennant in 1930. ‘The league has taken its third thrash- ing in succession in the world series very much to heart. The defeat was somewhat aggravated by the chuckling of the American League owners and the seeming tendency on their part to record it as a league victory, rather than the victory in a short series by one_championship club over another. The world series was not intended to be a league test of a premeditated base ball test. The National League always affirmed that. On_ the other hand, the American League has seemed to accept the outcome of the series as one of supremacy in a broader way than mere team victory. When the world series became a fix- ture in base ball John T. Brush warned National League men that one day the American League, having a different intent in mind at that time than the National League, would declare it an annual battle for the supremacy of the leagues. “Then,” he said, “you may be sorry that you got into it because the league championships will merely be prelim- inary details to the world series. Per- sonally I prefer one National League championship to victary in six world series.” ‘The suggestion has been made to pro- long the world series or to amplify it in some way tending to make it a tedious bore. When the series was ex- tended to nine games, the major owners quickly found they had made a mistake National League Seeks to’Enti— Odium of World Series Defeats and went back to the original plan of seven games, which still is in effect. In the nine-game series there were more opportunities to make blunders than in the seven-game series—and there are enough in that. All recent world series have been great successes except for the National League club contending. The Nationals have been defeated by New York twice and by Philadelphia, and it has not been good medicine. They could have swallowed 1t with more grace had it not been for the comment placed upon the outcome by President Barnard of the American League. This present meeting is not a sched- ule meeting of the National League. The schedule is not announced until Febru- ary. Long ago the league members | consulted with one another and decided | that the schedule of 1930 could be con- densed to advantage. In 1928 there ‘was more complaining over the schedule than had arisen in major league base ball in years. Double-headers and bad jumps were frequent. The thing culmi- nated in the four double-headers played in succession in Boston in September, which might have changed the outcome of the race. One of the contending teams was engaged in these eight games, and even with a clean sweep was unable to win the pennant, which perhaps was not a bad outcome for the league in general, The schedule in 1930 will begin about April 15 and end Scptember 28. The National League decided upon that some e ago and notified the American ague of the decision, so the latter organization cculd arrai accordingly. There will not be any more open dates than are neccssary. It is possible ther will be some prearranged double-heade: <0 bring the date program exactly wit in limits. “Bring on Tunney,” Says Shires After Scoring 21-Second Win| LITTLE BUSINESS LISTED AT CONFAB Earlier Closing of Season!t and Broadcasting of Games Up for Debate. BY WILLIAM J. CHIPMAN Assoclated Press Sports Writer. EW YORK, December 10.—This is a busy day magnates, with meetings of the advisory council and the National League. Any holdover conversation in the older major circuit will be disposzd of tomorrow as Ameri- can League magnates tune in for their own confab.

First and foremo:. on the program of each circuit will be the disposal of the two 1929 pennants in an official way, The opinion seems to have become gen~ cral that the Cubs will get the call from John Heydler's boys and that the claims of Connie Mack will receive serious consideration from American Leaguers before any champion is named. It is further reported thet Mr. Mack will lay claim to the championship of the worid Two Pieces of Business.g With trade talk in the air, as usual, | the two major leagues have two pleces of real business to transact—one of them of great moment to such fans as shivered in bleak stands in late Sep- tember and early October this year. Both circuits are reported to be willi to curtail the season to about 169 play ing dates, bringing the championship races to a close on Scptember 28. The cning date, under this arrangement, would be Tuesday, April 15. The other problem before the mag- nates is the decision of whether games shall or shall not be broadcast by radio.

Thistlethwaite was here to add-ess the annual banquet given Wait High School gridders by the East Toledo ‘lub. Thistlewaite takes the stand that | Towa is an unfortunate victim of an in- vestigation which will do much to better conditions in the Western Conference. | “It is just one angle of a big question | which, T think, will result in much good | for the conference,” he said. | “Personally,” he ‘continued, “I hate | to see Towa out of the competition. I| always have enjoyed our contacts with | that school and I think Burt Ingwer- | son, coach at Iowa, is one of the finest men I know. “You must remember,” the Badger coach went on, “that we coaches know very little of the ‘Inside’ of such Western Conference business such as the Towa case. Of course, w2 hear things from time to time, but the faculty committee investigating the case keeps thing$ pretty well to itself.” VIRGINIA POLY TOSSERS WILL PLAY 19 CONTESTS BLACKSBURG, Va, December 10.— Nineteen games, including 13 with| Southern Conference opponents, are | listed on the basket ball schedule an- | nounced by C.

With the role reversed and the deci- sion forced upon himself, Dempsey dis- played an uncertainty that he never would have exhibited with the gloves on. After a hasty but ineffectual effort to convince Scott it would be worth while to continue fighting, Dempsey rendered the verdict that gave victory to the Britisher. Thereupon he stepped from the ring to be greeted by the booes of a crowd that only a few minutes previ- ously had given him a sensational ova- tion. Scott, after being administered to'in | his corner, also was booed lustily as he climbed from the ring. Crowd Is Dissatisfied. ‘The crowd seemed to feel that it had been cheated of the evening’s enter- tainment, regardless of the merit of the decision. The outcome of the latest heavy- weight fiasco leaves Scott in possession of the victory, yet with no more sub- stantial claim to recognition than Von Porat. For the 3 minutes and 25 sec- onds of actual fisticuffing it was demon- strated merely that Von Porat was the more dangerous puncher, Scott the bet- ter bo but this was well known re The logical result may be to force a return match. - In fact, if last night's proceedings had been ar- ranged with that in view, they could ve been better staged.

Get_Tunney out of retirement for me.” The great one was only mildly stirfed by his quick victory and the circum- stances surrounding the show. It drew a capacity crowd of around 5,000, with gate receipts of approximately $13,000. “Big crowd?” Shires asked. “What's 5,000 people when 55,000 used to turn out to see me play the Yankees.” Shires had plenty of competition from Daly until the finish occurred. They answered the bell by charging into each other throwing punches from everywhere. Shires connected with a right to Daly's chin, and the Cleveland youth, a protege. of Eddie Meade, man- ager of Joe Lynch when the latter was bantamweight champion, dived face- first to the canvas. He tried to get up, but could not make it. Even the cocky Shires was bewildered at the quick finish.
