Mandell Gambles With Lightweight Crown in Bout With Slugging Al Singer MLARNIN'S DEFEAT WARNS YOUNGSTER Critics Think Bronx Boy Is Called on Too Soon to \ Meet Ring Master. | Br the Associat EW YORK, July more Sammj clever champion of the lightweights, is ready to gamble his crown against the spirited bid of a youth with dyna- mite in his right hand. Sammy meets Young Al Singer, pride of the Bronx, in a_15-round titular| battle at the Yankee Stadium Thursday night. Two_years ago a youngster just as promising as Singer, and with an even | deadlier punch, went into the ring with the champion at even money and came out with the worst beating of his career. He was Jimmy McLarnin of Vancouver, now grown into a full-fledged welter- weight. In that fight McLarnin was cut to pieces by Mandell's accurate left hand. and never found any use for the undoubted punch he had in either hand Assured of Title. Expert observers believe that Singer will meet the same fats. Some critics, conceding that Singer is an almost sure- fire bet to win the 135-pound title with- in . year or so, believe he is being d into this battle with a master boxer like Mandell too early in his career. Singer packs a punch in his right hand that spells curtains for a rival when the Bronx youngster conrects gquarely, but it won't do him any good 1t he can't land with it. McLarnin, with a right hand just as formidable and a left hook that was almost as deadly, scarcely landed a solid punch in 15 rounds with the champion. Mandell Unmarked.

They maintain that the average pitcher could do the same if he practiced long and earnestly. With scores of newcomers expected this vear in the second annual tourna- ment for the Metropolitan area of Washington, sponsored by The Washington Star, a few hints on the game at this time may help beginners, How to Hold a Shoe. HILE no two experts will agree on the best way to hold a horseshoe and you doubtlessly will develop your own particular grip, two methods are herewith fllustrated for the benefit of the neophyte. It is important for your success at the game that you adopt one hold and continue to use it. The man, woman or cnild who makes ringers consistently must practice until the pitch is made easily, with the judging the dis- tance and directing the movement of the arm and wrist, Grip the shoe in one of the two ways illustrated and make ready to pitch. How to Pitch a Horseshoe. HE first rule of pitching the horse- shoe is w0 keep the eye on the stake, The three fllustrations will aid you in assuming the proper position and “following through,” as they say in golf. First, you grip the shoe and stand with feet together, close to the stake. Next you bring the shoe at arm'’s leus.” and @ .4 it 85 you would s rifie, 80 that the opposite stake appears in the cent..

Third, you pitch the shoe by bring- ing the rght arm forxard and at the same time stepping forward with the right foot. (Fig- ure 3) The rhythm with which you per- form this ~ motion determines the ac- curacy of your pitch, provided you have properly Your step forward must not carry you beyond the box, or from the stake. The Modern Horse- shoe Game. O other game bination sport, kil healthful exercise at such low cost. ed the C You can out a horseshoe pitching court in your back yard or in a vacant lot and you can invite your friends to play at & moment's notice. Tournaments and clubs can be easily organized and when you become adept at the game you will find opponents al- ways hendy. Horseshoe pitching is a universally played game. Time was when horseshoe tossing was a barnyard sport. Old Dobbin fur- nished the shoes and the stakes were crude affairs improvised perhaps from bits of pipe. Now the game has assumed a national popularity and thousands of people are playing, more in the city, perhaps, than in the country. Shoes of sturdy drop-forged steel and stakes of the same material, made in style and weight to meet the specifications of the American Horseshoe Pitchers’ Association, are necessary to play the modern game properly. Laying Out the Court. HILE you can merely drive stakes in the ground 40 feet apart and start to pitch, a permanent court of exact dimensions can be laid out easily and will add much to the game. of s2 ruey soreer The illustration shows how an official court should be laid out. Place sec- tions of 2 by 4 and nall togetner so as to make two 6-foot squares. The stakes should be driven in the ground in the center of these boxes, inclining slightly toward each other. Fine clay should then be placed around the stakes and tamped down. This clay should be moistened occasionally. The diagram indi- cates the other dimensions of the court. 1f it is not convenient to install the clay-filled boxes the ground should be spaded up so 2s to prevent the shoes from bouncing and sliding. more than 3 feet | offers a com- | and |7 TIGHT PLAY LIKELY FOR PARK NET TITLE Pine competition is expected to mark the annual Washington Public Parks | Tennis Assoctation championships, which will start next Saturday.
