s g Carne ITALIANTS $10000 PURSE S HELD UP Charges of Fake Follow Go With Chevalier, Negro, in Oakland Ring. OAKLAND, Calif., April 15 (#)—In- vestigation of reports that the Primo Carnera-Leon Chevalier fight was “faked” was begun today by the Cali- fornia State Boxing Commission, which withheld the giant Italian’s $10,000 purse. A near riot broke out in the sixth round of tne ten-round fight last night when one of the Negro's seconds tossed a towel into the ring awarding the contest to Carnera on a technical knockout. ‘The second, Bob Perry, of Hollywood, immediately became the center of a milling mob, which handled him rough- ly and inflicted a gash over one eye. Hundreds of Carnera’s countrymen shouted their anger at the sudden end- ing of the fight, crying “Fake, bring Carnera back and make him fight over again.” Ringsiders protested vigorously that Chevalier, who weighed 216 pounds, was not in distress, and some fight critics said they believed he was in better condition than Carnera. Act Is Called legal. Tossing of the towel by Perry was said to be illegal, as California box- | O arries Mimes, A8 | v N ing laws permit only the chief second to halt a fight in that manner. | newspaper circles. Tim McGrath, manager and chief | second of the Negro, said he was so surprised at Perry’s action that he failed to protest to the referee. Carnera, weighing 276 pounds, was after his fifteenth consecutive American knockout when he entered the ring. He loomed above his opponent and imme- diatelv began swinging punches. The ring was slippery from rain, and Carrera fell to his knees in the first round, but jumped up immediately. Chevalier reached the giant fighter with several lusty wallops. Chevalier, with one exception the only fighter to stay more than two rounds with Carnera, put up a good fight. He stood up to his huge oppo- nent, and ringsiders believed he made an impressive showing, despite a nine- count xnockdown in the sixth round. When Chevalier arose, the towel flut- tered into the ring, and the referee im- mediately awarded the bout to Carnera on a technical knockout. Critics had expected Carnera to knock out the Ne- gro within one or two rounds. Members of the boxing commission said they would investigale to determine whether bettors had wagered heavily on the contest. Before two boxing inspectors and six newspaper men, Mrs. Chevalier, wife of the Negro boxer; persuaded her husband to make a statement that he had been approached, before signing articles, with Six Regal Reproductions o | | | | | | | SANDE, IN COMEBACK, | SPORTS: a proposition that he must agree to a “fake fight.” By agreeing to this, the Negro said he was told, his end of the purse “would be more than $900.” Chev- alier replied that all his business was handled by his manager. Tim McGrath, manager and chief sec- ond for Chevalier, said he had no knowl- edge that Perry was going to throw in the towel. McGrath told boxing inspec- tors that the towel should not have been tossed into the ring. James Woods of San Francisco and Los Angeles, elected chairman of tae boxing commission yesterday, was quoted as saying the fight was “very unsatis- factory.” The fighters were ordered to appear 3etore the commission for a hearing to- ay.

Sande, who retired as a jockey to be- come an owner-trainer at the end of the 1928 season, was astride Frank Hayes' Rockslide yesterday, but finished out of the money. The public, rallying to the support of the 32-year-old rider, hastened to plunge on Rockslide, and the Hayes' | entry went to the post a well-bflcked‘ favorite. sande has hopes of realizing his greatest ambition—the riding of 1,000 winners.

Chips From the Mapleways BY R. D. THOMAS. NCE again the deadly calm Howard Campbell survives a pinch, this time to outdo a friend. When Howard and Clem Weidman, members of the King Pin team, faced the maples on the last night of the District and National League seasons cach had in mind the, No 1 spot in the rankings of the Wash- ington City Duckpin Association. Weidman had an opportunity to establish an all-time record for average in the District and Campbell was shoot- ing for a new high average in the National Capital. If both had made the grade the com- mittee that does the selecting for the city association now would be hard put to make a cheice between the two, But Campbell came through and Weidman didn’t. The District League champion as a rule has a strong claim on top place in the “Big Ten.” The winner of the Campbell Sweepstakes also comes in for consideration. Last year Brad Mandley settled all arguments by finishing first in the District and winning the stakes, too. This season Max Rosenberg won the stakes and Weidman took the Dis- trict League title, yet neither of these triumphs now seems important com- pared with Campbell’s feat of averaging 121 in the National Capital. Weidman's assignment on the_final night was much tougher than Camp- bell's. Clem needed 385 sticks to top the record of 119-44 established the previous season in the District League by Mandley, but fell 65 pins short. Campbell was able to keep slightly sbove 121 in the National Capital by However,_before District and this brought his average | above 117, only a point or so pehind Weidman. The last month of the campaign was | a struggle for Clem. He went stale and was forced to fight for every pin. On that last night he managed to get in one good game where it was most needed. His 127, in the opener against | Northeast Temple, helped decide the | pennant in favor of his team. Weidman delivered a mighty punch in the tenth frame with a triple-header strike and | this bit of brilliancy went a long way toward ameliorating his disappointment over missing a record. ‘That Campbell will be selected is almost certain, though some may point | No out that an average of 118 on a circuit is worth 121 in a one-alley league. However, Campbell was about 7 points better than Weidman in the Na- tional Capital and Clem had Howard topped by only one point in the Dis- trict. Even Weidman 1s at a loss to explain the wide ?iflcn’nce in his averages, with the high one in the league where maples are the more difficult to collect. Each of the two King Pin aces shot four “400” sets this season. ‘Weidman hardly can be denied the No. 2 place, but from there down the committee may do some close doping. Speaking . of punchy finishes, George Bradt of the Georgetown Recreation team made five strikes in his final set to win the strike championship of the Georgetown Recreation League. With a total of 43 he nosed out Harold Hodges of the Liberty team. And H. Young of Georgetown Recrea- tion got over a snappy set to beat out his captain, Sam Benson, by eight sticks for the high average. Each had 113 and a fraction. The city association missed its goal of 400 teams for the annual tourna- ment, but not by enough to feel dis- appointed. Most goals of that sort never are reached, anyway. It would appear that lots of time and effort might be saved if the tournament entries were collected in the early Fall when the leagues are forming. At that time the leagues could make ar- rangements for entry en masse. Some already follow this plan. ON THE DRIVES TONIGHT Capitol Hill League—Navy Yard Mother's Lunch. at Capitol Hill.
