At the end of the day, the Garden announced the coffers of the | ilk fund, sponsors of the show, had been swelled by $40,000. Recalling that $90,000 had been taken in on Friday and Saturday, the Garden was not slow 1o estimate that the total “gate” would 700,000. make the ‘day one of unal- loyed bliss for the promoters, Sharkey and Schmeling both put on great work- outs at their training quarters, in Orangeburg and Endieott, N. Y. The boys who will do the actual work have one more day of training ahead of them. They will rest Wednesday and come to New York in time for weigh- ing-in ceremonies at the stadium at 2 pm. Thursday. Sharkey will come by motor from Orangeburg, while Schmel- ing makes the trip from Endicott by train. The Teuton slugger had planned to come by air, but definitely aban- doned this plan because of unfavorable weather conditions. Principal interest here turned on the question of a referee. Neither Sharkey nor Schmeling has offered any objec- | tion to the New York State Athletic| Commission’s plan to select the third{ man in the ring just before the 15-) round title affray«begins. A guessing contest among the experts nominated Ed Forbes, Jim Crowley and Kid Mc- Partland as the most likely candidates. There were indications that Lou Mag- nolia, referee of the “foul-no foul” con- test between Sharkey and -Phil Scott at Miami, has been ruled out of con- sideration. e betting odds favored Shar- key at 9 to 5. Odds of 1 to 3 have feen offered against Sharkey scoring a Mmockout and 1 to 7 against Schmeling sccomplishing the feat. Casting around for an explanation of the scarcity of wagering, some experts were of the opinion that supporters of Schmeling are waiting for longer odds before put- ting down their cash. The radio details of the match will be broadcast through a national hook-up by the National Broadcasting Co. with Graham McNamee the probable choice for duty at the microphone. The athletic commission was to de- cide later today the statys of Joe Ja- cobs, Schmeling’s manager of choice. Jacobs has been under suspension here for months, put the generdl.expectation was that he would be grafitéd a tempo- rary license in time to L@ndle Schmel- ing in his corner the night ofethe fight.

Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes, captain of the Washington team and chairman of the inter-city team match committee, said the contest probably will be played over the course of the Congressional Country Club, and that, although her team has not definitely been chosen, most of the members will be those who competed with a Baltimore team on May 27. These golfers were , Mrs. Haynes, Dorothy Hunter, Mrs. Belty P. Meckley, Winifred Faunce, Mrs. E. R. Tilley, Mrs. S. F. Colladay, Mrs. Perry B. Hoover, Miss Susan Hacker, Mrs. Hume Wrong, Mrs. Frank R. Keefer, Mrs. William S. Corby and Mrs. George H. Parker. ‘The Washington women have been uniformly successful in their team con- tests this year and if they win the match with Richmond next week, they can rightfully claim the title of team champions of the neighborhood around Washington. Later in the ‘season a team of women golfers from Norfolk are to come to Washington to play the local team. The handicap of Mrs. Dorothy White Nicolson, women’s District champion, has been reduced from scratch to plus one, making Mrs. Nicolson the only woman golfer around Washington hon- ored with a plus rating, Mrs. J. M. Haynes, former District titleholder, re- mains scratch. Mrs. Betty P. Meckley, one of the formidable contestants for the cham- plonship, is playing in the women's championship at Washington under the handicap of an injured wrist, hurt two days ago when a ball struck by a fel- low member of the Beaver Dam Club hit her on the wrist. She played in the medal round of the women's championship yesterday at Washington with her wrist tightly taped. Mrs. Nicolson, playing over the Wash- ington course, which she knows so well, showed a clean pair of heels to the small field of woman players in the qualifying round of the championship yesterday and scored an 83 to lead her nearest competitors by 5 strokes. Mrs. Alma von Steinner and Mrs. Betty P. Mackley, both of Beaver Dam, tied for second place with cards of 88. Mrs. Nicolson today met Dorothy Hunter, daughter of the long-hitting Indian Spring professional, in the first round of match play. Four players tied at 105 for last place in the champion- ship flight, and because three of them had left drawn, resulting in Mrs. H. B. Shipley of Beaver Dam going into the first flight. The tourney is to conclude on Friday, with the playing of the final | round in all three flights. Next Tuesday a team of Bannock- burn Golf Club players will journey Va., to play the golf team of the Loudoun Golf and BALTIMORE, June 10. — Dooly Mitchell and zob Considine, seeded | third and fourth, respectively, in the annual Maryland State tennis cham-| pionships, after being unable to play | yesterday because of the rain, were to et action today.

Among the visiting golfers is Billy Howell of Richmond, winner last Saturday of the Middle Atlantic Golf Association championship. Howell played the Co- lumbia course yesterday with Roger Peacock and Elliott Spicer and scored a fine 73, blowing a short putt on the eighteenth green, which would have given him a 72. Most of the contest- ants in the event played the course yesterday. Match play rounds will be played Thursday and Friday. James M. Barnes, former Washington Club champion, is the first entrant in the club ringer contest to score an eagle 3 on the lengthy fourth hole since the ringer competition started on Memorial day.

Ave. on 12th AUSTRALIA, JAPAN TENNIS FAVORIES Picked to Defeat Italy and Czechoslovakia in Davis Cup Semi-Finals. By the Associated Press. Davis Cup tennis play in the Euro- pean zone has reached the semi-final round, with Japan, Australia, Italy and Crechoslovakia still in the front. Semi-final round pairings pit Aus- tralia against Italy and Japan against Czechoslovakia. The survivors will meet in the zone final, the winner of which will play the United States,” American zone champions, for the right to chal- lenge France, cup holder for the last three years. On the basis of their play in the third round Australia and Japan will be heavy favorites to reach the final round. Japan, boasting a strong team headed | by Takeichi Harada, should have little trouble with Czechoslovakia. Italy, with Baron H. L. De Morpurgo leading the charge, should give Aus- tralia a bitter fight, but De Morpurgo can't hope to swing the tide of victory toward Italy all by himself. His part- ner, Pietro Gaslini, does not figure to be a match for either of the Australian stars, Harry Hopman and Jack Craw- ford, in singles, and the Hopman-Craw- ford doubles combination _appears stronger than anything the Italians can put on the courts.

EMERSON HAS GOOD YEAR IN ATHLETICS Teams Strongest in History of School, Says Sanborn, Sports Director. &« had a fine year. Our teams were the best in| the history of the school.” That's how Harley Page | Sanborn, Emerson Institute director of | athletics, feels about that school's | athletic year which has just ended. | Emerson athletes will be awarded letters at commencement exercises Sat- urday night. Sanborn said Emerson’s teams were | not only good from a physical stand- point, but what pleased him and the other authorities of the school most was’ their spirit and the high type of sports- manship they exhibited. Foot ball, basket ball and base ball were the sports in which Emerson was represented this school year. The in- stitution® will again have teams in these sports next year and in addition may add track, including cross-country run- ning and boxing. Sanborn will con- tinue as athletic director and may have the assistance of two or three assistant coaches. A fine foot ball schedule has been arranged and an attractive base ball card is nearly complete for the next school year. ; Six stalwarts, who carried Emerson's colors in foot ball,- basket ball and base ball will be among those missing in the Fall. They are Ray Davidson, Joe Trilling, Jack Forney, Dick Kelso, Bottles West and Bucky Buscher. They each will receive three letters Saturday as will Ellet Cabell and Bill Alber, three sports athletes listed to return. Others to be awarded letters and sports_follow: McDonald, Shackleford, Sutton, Kil- Toy, McCarthy, Taylor, foot ball; Long- est, foot ball and base ball; Scanlon, foot ball and basket ball; Fauntleroy, foot ball, and Cornell and King, base ball. Of this group Sutton, Kilroy and Scanlon are to be lost. e MIXED DOUBLES HONORS WILL BE DECIDED TODAY Final play in the mixed doubles of | the city of Washington tennis cham- pionship was scheduled this afternoon at 4 o'clock on the Rock Creek courts, with Josephine Dunham, holder of the woman’s _singles title, and Pat Deck meeting Phoebe Moorhead, co-holder of the women's dpubles title, and Joe Rutley. which has a spiral bevel gear of special Ford truck de- sign; and the 4-speed trans. mission, which provides a wide, flexible range of speed ‘and power.

PEAKE of Bethesde, metropolitan district horse- shoe champion, is the most challenged athlete in this section of the land as an army of pitchers warm up for the second annual tournament sponsored by The Washington Star, en- At least one challenge the tall Bethesdan will accept, perhaps, with alacrity. It comes from Earle A. Crane, the Washingtonian who gave Peake his strongest opposition for the championship of South- ern Maryland. After last year’s tournament, in which he triumphed over a fleld numbering several thousands, Peake declared he would give Crane the satisfaction of another meeting any time he so desired. The Washington man had hoped this would come in this year’s tournament, but under the new tournament rules it will be im- possible unless Peake again takes the Southern Maryland crown and Crane the Washington .title. In this event they would clash in the grand finale, along with the Northern Virginia champion. This year’s entrants will be confined to competition in their own States until the grand finale. Crane filed his challenge today with the Horseshoe Editor and dates for a home-and-home series likely will be ar- ranged in a day or two, with one match at Bethesda and tHe other on the Plaza playground, where Crane does most of his’pitching. The last encounter between these two was a ding-dong battle. Crane won the first 50-point game with compara- tive ease and looked to be an oasy vic- tor in the match. But Peake, with a display of pluck that gained him many supporters in succeeding matches, got his ringers at psychological moments and took the next two games. This was in the Southern Maryland final at Rock~ viile. D PEARCE and Ed Edmonston, Peoples Drug Stores doubles team, are meeting all comers on their court in the rear of 133 Webster street northwest. “Any and all are challenged,” they write and extend a general Invitation to pitchers in the Webster street neigh- borhood to use the court. Pearce and Edmonston are available for combat any evening at 6:30 and on Saturday afternoons and Sunda; ‘The pair desire particularly to take on some of the sectional winners in last year'’s tournament and the Gingell brothers of Cherrydale. Edmonston or Pearce may be phoned at North 0418 during the day. ORE from Pearce and Edmonston: “We earnestly hope that the 50- point single games will be used in the playground preliminaries this year and that the 21-point games will be eliminated altogether. The short games are comparable to the ‘sudden death’ that Bobby Jones calls the 18-hole matches in the English and American amateur golf tournaments.” It has already been settled that only 50-point games will be played. AUREL, Md., will have a tourna- ment this year. Its winner and runner-up will advance into the Prince Georges County play-off. Lieut. Julian B. Anderson of the Maryland National Guard will be the chairman and he requests all interested to attend & meeting next Tuesday night at 8 o'clock at the Laurel Armory. ERE'S a new wrinkle in horseshoe pitching. The Rev. E. V. Stevens of the First Universalist Church, New Bedford, Mass., wants to arrange a contest by mail between ministers of his city and Washington. But how do you pitch horseshoes by It might be done on s medal play system, .., count the number of ringers scored in a specified number of pitches and perhaps a point for each shoe placed witkin 6 inches of the stake and compare scores. There are a number of horseshoe pitching clergymen in the Washington metropolitan district and if any are in- trigued by the Rev. Stevens' proposal they are urged to communicate with him at 512 Union street, New Bedford, Mass., or with the Horseshoe Editor at The Star. GALLANT FOX OUT; OTHERS RUSHING IN By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, June 10.—The definite withdrawal of Gallant Fox from the American Derby field Saturday has caused a rush of entries at Washington Park, not only of Western owners, but by Easterners as well.
