SPORTS. NEED 11th-HOUR TURNOUT ~ TO AVERT FINANCIAL FLOP 'Also Anxious for Scott to Tonight—Jack, Though, Is Expected to Stop _ Briton in Short Order. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. IAMI, Fla., February 27.—Today was fight day along the palm- M fringed boulevards, with the crowds and chatter, the balmy breezes and the twitterin, the Midwinter carnivals o Behind all the gayety and the associated with the second annual battle of the cocoanut palms were hoping for the best, but fearing the worst—hoping an eleventh-hour rush for the turnstiles would materialize, but fearing a financial flop; hoping that Phil Scott, the London fire laddie, would make a gallant fight of it all, but fearing that the rough and rugged American, Jack Sharkey, would turn the main event tonight into a one-sided punch- ing bee. . ‘Thirty-six years ago, in Jack- sonville, Gentleman Jim Corbett, American holder of the world heavyweight championship, knocked out the pride of England, flery little Charley Mitchell, in three rounds, in a fugitive prize fight that resulted in the arrest of all concerned as law violators. ‘Tonight in the Miami arena bullt by the Madison Square Garden Corpora- tion of New York Jack Sharkey enters the ring an overwhelming favorite to repeat Anglo-American boxing history by knocking out Phil Scott in the 15- round feature of ag_all-star heavy- weight card of five bouts. Although there is no chance whatever of a sell- out, the show appeared certain to at- tract a notable gathering of wealth and fashion, of talent and celebrities, to the ringside, No title was at stake, but the cham- plonship aspirations of the principals were involved, for the winner, whether Sharkey or Scott, will be within a stride of a decisive match for the world heavy- weight crown put aside by Gene Tunney a year and a half. ago. Only Max Schmeling, the German champion, is| considered to stand at present in the path of the survivor. And Max, Who is | in perfect health in Germany in spite of ‘alarming ballyhoo-inspired nmts circulated yester that he had n injured, is prepared to -meet either Sharkey or Scott in June at New York under the terms of an agreement al- ready reaehed. Rivals Offer Contrast. The contrast in the setting of the | Jrist . 90s and that of today; the contrast, too, between this affair and the fantastic venture of a year ago that followed the death of Tex Rickard, was no less mark- ed than the difference between tonight's principals. = Scott, the pale and apprehensive- looking Briton, holds the championship of his homeland, but has yet to demon- strate either that he has a punch or that he has much ring ability beyond that of a fair boxer. Quiet by nature and at times even morose, Scott has been well conditioned, but failed to thrive mentally on American methods or gain stimulation from the vocal out- pourings and the combative spirit of his New York manager, Jimmy Johnston. Sharkey, thoroughly at home, splen- didly conditioned and equipped, has dis- layed every determination to remove Yhe stigma of a somewhat erratic career, and remove all obstacles in his th to the world championship battle. g:\ speed, punch and resourcefuiness, as well as confidence, the American has marked advantages over his British rival. Sharkey has been at his worst among rushing, ripping types of fight- ers like Dempsey, Risko and Heeney. He has been at his best against less aggressive, less powerful punching foes such as Wills, Maloney and Loughran. The experts regard Scott as “made to order” for Sharkey, and the Boston sailor has acquired supreme confidence of his ability to end the fight quickly. Under such circumstances, it has been small wonder that in spite of a .supggntnf card of high caliber, headed by the Victorio Campolo-Johnny Risko semi-final, the masters of the old-fash- ioned ballyhoo have been at their wits’ ends to stimulate interest in the fight show and gain consequent results at the box office. There little or no debate over the final bout, with Sharkey a 5-to-1 favorite and picked to score a knockout inside four or five rounds. Scott's most enthusiastic supporters, if concede his only hope to be the adop! fensive tactics at the outset, designed to weather an early storm, and with the recovery of some poise. and confidence, to use Lis long reach and boxing ability to advantage. Advance Sale Is Poor. The advance sale for the fight has been far below expectations. Forecasts depended upon factors of stimulation today, but it seemed reasonable to most observers to expect not many more than 25,000 customers, if that many, and “gate” not much beyond $200,000. Gar- den officials stuck to a prediction of $300,000 or more. ‘The Campolo-Risko affair, regarded as more of a fighting magnet than the main event, promised the most exciting action .of the eveaing, with the Argen- tinian slight favorite to whip his p American opponent because of big a vantages in weight and punch.

TROUSERS To Match Your Odd Coats EISEMAN’S, 7th & F KAYO BY SHARKEY S TUNNEY' GUESS Gene Will Enter Business After Convalescence From Operation. BY BRIAN BELL, Associated Press Sports Writer, IAMI, Fla, February 27 (#).— Gene Tunney, retired unde- feated heavyweight boxing champion of the world, plans to “get well,” he sald today, and then go into “some business,” Convalescing from a recent operation in New York, the man who left the ring and the championship behind 18 months ago looked forward with keen anticipation to seeing the heavyweights who seek the honor he has discarded do battle tonight. He has not had on a boxing glove since he climbed between the ropes at the Yankee Stadium in July, 1928, after his farewell bout with the rugged Tom Heeney as his last victim. After a man has been knocked down, said Tunney, the most important thing for him to do is to get up. After a man has an operation his most important consideration should be to get well. He is now making satisfactory progress toward recovery of his strength, and when that is accomplished he will turn his mind to thoughts of business. ‘There was no sign of the invalid about the former champion as he walked into the home of one of his oldest friends at Miami Beach, where he did much Winter conditioning when he was the ruling king of the heavy- weight group. He carried a cane to bolster a side weakened by the surgeon's knife, but the supporting stick seemed to apologize for its presence, There was no sem- blance of excess poundage and in fact Gene_reported his weight 192 pounds, ;‘::l figure at which he boxed at his With the cares and annoyances of the championship behind him, Tunney was the ‘“old Tunney” of Speculator and | Stroudsburg before he won the title from Jack Dempsey. The same bright twinkle was in his eye as he talked of boxers and ‘boxing. Tunney has never seen Phil Scott, the British challenger, and could offer no forecast of tonight's bout. “From the information I have of his style I ‘would say that he will be knocked out,” was his guess. Accompanied by -Mrs. Tunney and several friends Tunney came to Miami from Useppa Isle, a spot off Florida's west coast he has found ideal for his convalescence. — CHURCH BALL LEAGUE HOLDS PARLEY TONIGHT Georgetown Church Base Ball League will meet tonight at 8 o'clock in Peck Memorial chapel.

LONNIE KRAUSS PLUCKS ONE FROM THE ARCHIVES Dave McCarty’s Feat, Buried in Antiquity, Didn’t Get the Tumble Given His History Game of 182—Isemann Defends Title. BY R. D. THOMAS. LONZO HERMAN KRAUSS, Coliseum manager, today called at- tention to an inaccuracy we hasten to correct. Recently a piece appeared in this column about Arlie Webb being the second Washington bowler to shoot a perfect flat game. As a at the old Palace, not long before that stood for many seasons as a Alonzo was privileged to witness both of McCarty's feats. “When the discussion of flat games was on,” said he, “nobody remembered McCarty’s, and yet his was more unusual in a way than the others. Dave kept going after the regular 10 boxes and rolled a perfect 120 flat.” As Krauss remembered it, there was nothing tricky about McCarty's score. Webb deliberately picked two spare breaks, Details of O'Nelll's perform- ance are lacking. McCarty had one spare break, three pins in a row and shot for it. He plucked the key stick. Three times in the 12 frames he made Nos. 5 and 7 or 5 and 10 to clean up. No score before nor since created the sensation that Dave's 182 did. He rolled it with the Mount Vernon team in the National Capital League against the greatest team of the period—the Palace quint, that numbered among its members the incomparable Harry Krauss. high i Scores are many points higher on the | average now than tmy were then.

Silver Spring, who was beaten by the Arcadian flash, Eddie Espey, today ac- cepted the challenge of Al Huntt, Pet- worth’s rising youngster. Huntt is re- quested to get in touch with Frank Proctor, at the Silver Spring establish- ment, who is “handling” Viers. Espey piled up a lead of 85 pins on Viers in the first five games of their series at the Arcadia, but in the return engagement at Silver Spring Noble gave ave him a real battle, Espey winning, 46 to 542. Viers pulled a monkey spare in his final box and, needing seven pins to win the set, cut a deuce from the center. In the final block each made 12 spares and 1 strike, on which Espey counted 79 and Viers 99. Mrs. Gertrude E. Higgins, with a score of 591 for six games, won the . G.
