S Jack Dempsey’s Fistic Show at Reno July 4 Is Reminiscent of Rickard’s Days o o] EE) MERGHANS| BALLYHOOED LIKE OLD-TIME BATILES Jack Expects 15,000 to See Uzcudun and Baer Go to It Juiy 4. ~ By the Associated Press. ENO, Nev.,, June 19.—Jack Dempsey’s personally pro- moted heavyweight fight here July 4 may not affect the champlonship situation, but it has been ballyhooed to the pro- portions of the old-time battles which marked the days of Tex Rickard hereabouts. The genial ex-champion will present Paulino Uzcudun and Max Baer—a pair of stalwarts who balance a lack of knowledge of the finer points of the sport with a willingness to walk in and throw punches. It is scheduled as a 20-round bout. Dempsey expects some 15,000 or more fans to flock to the Nevada metropolis, termed by its citizens “the biggest little city in the world.” Not since Jack Johnson crushed the “comeback” aspi- rations of Jim JefIries here in 1910 has ?.eno held a spot in the pugilistic pic- ure. Uzeudun Drawing Card. Uzeudun, a grinning, gold-toothed Basque, is the central figure in Demp- sey’s plans, and hopes to bring the fight crowd to Reno. Many thousands of Spaniards live in California, while Utah and Nevada have their share of the countrymen of Paulino. When Uzcudun fought George Godfrey in Los Angeles two years ago fully a third of the at- tendance was made up of persons of Spanish descent, all there to cheer for their countryman. Baer, Livermore, Calif., youngster, who attained fleeting ring prominence within the last year, has a strong following in the San Francisco Bay section, despite three defeats in Eastern fights. Win or lose, he gives the customers a thrill. To Be Added Attractions. Varled added attractions offered by Reno are expected to weigh heavily in making the city a meeting ground for a huge crowd over the Fourth. Games of chance operate under the law, while the visitors also will find a horse race meet under way. ‘The fight arena, seating around 20,- 000, is constructed in the middle of the race track at the Silver State Jockey Club, and one admission price will cover both events. . Scenes familiar to Dempsey and the fightgoing public will be re-enacted at Reno. Because of a housing shortage, the railroad companies will have every available sleeping car “spotted” on side tracks there. The same condition pre- vailed in Shelby, Mont., eight years ago ‘when Dempsey fought Tom Gibbons. Listening Post By Walter Trumbull. COUPLE of Californians told me the other day that Charlie Borah had lost interest in run- ning. I wrote that I was sorry. By that I meant nothing against Borah. As time passes, our tastes change and there is no reason that Borah should continue his interest in running, if he has found other, and perhaps more im- rtant, things which interest him. But Ralph Huston says that it is not because Borah no longer cares to run that he has hung up his spiked shoes. He says that the reason why Borah doesn’t sprint any more is that it is not physically possible. Borah, now studying medicine at Southern Califorina, running as a ju- nior, pulled a muscle, and it seems that his leg still troubles him. He told Ralph Huston, recently, that even when he walked up a hill in playing golf, the leg pained him severely. ‘This is much more regrettable than if Borah were merely tired of the track game, or too busy to follow it further. You don’t like to see one of the great- est sprinters the world ever saw carry il effects from his undergraduate ef- forts on the cinder path into later life. It is to be hoped, in his medical course, | he learns the cure for taat leg. RTY nations will be represented | in the Olympics at Los Angeles and | there will be 3,500 entries. Many of us would like to make that 3,501, with Rabbit Maranville the extra entry. It wouldn't be well to enter the Rab- bit in the weight events, because some of those big fellows might take him for a shot, hammer or discus and throw him somewhere. But in the sprints, jumps and endurance runs, Rabbit Maranville should be a star. Every day, for many years, the Rab- bit has been growing sieadily younger. By the time of the games he should be about 19 or 20. When he was old, he never was much of a hitter. The truta is, he hit more or less like a pitcher. That is all changed. Since hz has re- newed his youth, he has been socking the ball with ever-increasing vigor. I su) e you noticed that th2 other day he got a triple and three sirgles off the best pitching the St. Louis ‘Cards could offer and scored five rws. In the course of time he should be s.ble to beat Wykoff in the 100 and trba England's best in the half mile. As for jumping, he can leap over the wor.d's record for | States to use the Potomac in common, PORTS.

C., FRIDAY, JUNE 19, 1931. PADDOCK HIS PATTERN The A P. AU Rights HE Virginia season for black bass opened last Monday, but anglers have had little opportunity to cast for them owing to the mud- dy condition of the Potomac and the Shenandoah. Fish commissioners of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia will meet here July 9 to try to reach an agree- ment to permit anglers of the three providing they have ,their own State's license. It is now necessary for a resident of Virginia and West Virginia to secure a Maryland license to fish in the Potomac. A tel from Ocean City, Md., from the Chamber of Commerce says: “Channel bass biting good at Ocean City. Parties of 15 catching at rate of 30 a day. Blue fish biting good. ‘There will be & run of channel bass for next three or four weeks.” A. H G. Mears at Wachapreague, Va., reports: “Channel bass striking fairly good, largest catch to boat seven, largest to individual four. Largest catches of trout 50 to 110. Large blues and croakers also biting. Sea striking good.” ‘Willlam Hard, mumnm::;:_lg‘ known newspaper and magazine T, his secretary, Miss Edith Needham, | daughter of Dr. Charles Willis Need- ham, solicitor of the Valuation Bureau of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, landed 43 hardhead at Solomons Island, but the thrill of the expedition | was Miss Needham's catch of a drum weighing 49'; pounds. The big fish didn't put up much of a fight until he was close to the boat, and then he made a dart and away he went. Miss | Needham handled him like a veteran | fisherman, and he was finally gaffed | by Capt. Eddy Bowen. We congratu- late Miss Needham on her catch. It was the largest fish caught with rod and reel reported to us so far this season. APT. GEORGE BOWEN telephoned this morning that a boat had just returned with a catch of 14 trout and 13 hardhead. The party was from Sunberry, Pa., and had as guide Capt. Clyde Dove. He sald the wind last week end put a crimp in fishing, but that conditions were just right tcday and prospects good for the week end. ‘The fish, he said, were in the Patuxent and out in the bay near the channel. Judge Willam S. Snow of Alex- andria, L. W. Tyus and Harry Johnson | fished over on the Eastern Shore off Chrisfield recently and Judge Snow said he had never seen trout strike so fast. They fished on slack water for 3!)0\".l an hour and landed 30 trout and 40 hardhead, baiting with peeler. Anglers et Crisfield will find good accom- modations at the Hotel Sterling.

Jones of Leonardtown | trolling off Piney Point landed 10 rock- | fish weighing from 5 to 8 pounds, and three trout weighing around 5 pounds each. Still fishing, they landed 50 hard- heads, using soft crab for bait. Capt. Gourley Elliott at Brooms Is- land reports that Willlam R. Hollis, James Malone, J. W. Beasley and George Kerasiates, all of Washington, landed 36 hardhead, and that another boat re- turned with 25 hardhead and two trout, and still another boat landed 15 fish. Hardheads came into their own off Kopels Point several days ago, accord- ing to a report from Marshall Morgan. In his party were Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Jones, Joseph Kerr, Judge and Mrs. W. N. McGehee and their son Billy, and Mrs. Marshall Morgan. They fished off Blackstone Island and in d | Was one 4-pounder, two 3-pounders and & number ranging from 1 to 2 pounds, all hardhead. The catch also included some black perch and a liberal assort- ment of eels and toad fish. Nearly all the hardhead were caught on blood- worms. Capt. Norman Gass was the guide. Another party consisting of Mr. and Mrs. R. Earle Lambert, Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Norrls, Mr. and Mrs. M. Nelson, Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Eichner and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig and their two sons and Mrs. C. E. Tolson fishing off Cedar Point Light landed 48 hardhead. The fish ranged from 2 to 3 pounds and frequently were caught two at a time. HOLE-IN-ONE ON FLY Ball Hit by Collegian in Tourney Lands in Cup. Hole-in-one shots are numerous now- adays, but seldom does a player get as neat a one as that of O'Hara Watts of Southern Methodist University, made recently in the annual Southwest Con- ference golf tournament at Dallas, Tex. On the sixth, a par 3, 120-yard hole, Watts’ tee shot arched over a lake and landed directly in the cup without once touching the green.

SPORTS. THE SPORTLIGHT BY GRANTLAND RICE Schmeling and Stribling. HE German champlon and the Georgian challenger now have about 10 days of training left, but they both happen to be types who always keep in good condi- tior. These next 10 days will be largely & matter of sharpening up and pointing What Stribling must work for is greater aggressiveness, for he will need that to win. And what Schmeling needs is one or two rough and tumble scraps against the best sparring partners he can find to offset the fact that he has had only four rounds of real fighting in almost two years. If Stribling can carry an aggressive attack into the ring, he should be one of the best heavyweights in years. But that is a mental attitude that he must force. It hasn’t been natural in his most important fights. He has more speed than Schmeling, he is faster, fs more experienced, just as strong an as crafty and just as hard a puncher when he lets pne fly. But Schmeling has been the more aggressive ring man in most of his contests, and this matter of aggressive- ness is more often than not the win- ning factor. The German is game enough and he can hit. He can also take it, 8s far as one can find out up to date. But he isn't a great boxer and he isn't exceg'..lonllly fast. He had nothing like Sharkey's ring speed, and Stribling can match Sharkey. The German is the first foreigner to take the title from America since Sul- livan reigned. At this point the division of opinion is about equally split as to whether he will keep it or whether Georgla will take it over to help re- plenish the gaps brought on by Bobby Jones' abdication. Harvard’s Chance. ARVARD has the chance to finish with the only unbeaten crew in the country around twilight today. But it is difficult to compare 2-mile and 4-mile contests. The Navy lost most of its 2-mile race but the Navy was great stuff over the 4-mile route. Vic Williams and Benny Eastman could not keep up with Wykoff or Tolan at the 100 or 220, but it would be an- | other matter at the 440. Boat racing is different in a number of ways, but the vital idea can be the same. Anyway, Harvard has a ready, and if Yale is to win Ed Leader will need a crew up to one of the best he has yet turned out. Tennis Barriers. | 'RANK SHIELDS and Sydney Wood, | two of America's younger tennis | stars, have their chance to show the stuff they have at, Wimbledon next week in which both Cochet and Borotra | are entered in an attempt to bring about another French final. Wimble- don will give a first-class line on Davis Cup odds. But in the meanwhile both Czecho- | slovakia and Great Britain have strong | teams and the United States side must | tackle the winner before getting an- | other shot at the French. And there is no certainty of any United States victory against the better of these two European teams. Wimbledon will tell an interesting | story. It will show how far our younger stars have moved forward, and there will be action from the first match on. The Western Open. T has nearly always taken some dizzy scoring to win the Western open, now under way at Dayton. It lacks | the heavy strain of the United States | open, and this means a chance for the leaders to shoot the works without being tied into too many surplus knots.

OBBY JONES, on his way to Colum- bus and Toledo to observe the Ryder Cup and the open cham- am.lnnlhlp, confessed to conflicting emo- in regard to his capacity as spec- tator for the firsi time in his life—at least s0 far as the oven is concerned. Bobby admitted that he would miss the big thrill of this 72-hole test, but he also admitted he would take great pleas- ure in missing the heavy suffering that accompanied the three-day battle. “In one way it is a lot of fun,” he said, “but in another, I'm not sure that the nerve strain and the mental suf- fering don’t overbalance the thrills you get. may sound ridiculous to a lot of folks, but it happens to be true. I guess I'll have more fun looking on. For this next one will be a heart- bre-nker from the first shot to the last putt.” (Copyright, 1931, by North American News- paper Alliance, Ine.)

CHICAGO, June 19 (#).—There will be no soccer foot ball on the 1932 Olympic program unless the Olympic Committee in charge of the sport re- vises its amateur rules. The United States Foot Ball Associa- tion, governing body of soccer, permits players to accept pay for time lost from work, while the Olympic rule bars ac- ceptance of more than expense money. Officials of the U. 8. F.
