SPORTS. A1GHT JAB IN 13TH * PUTS SCHARF OUT Blow Ends Tame Contest in Which Big Primo Loses but One Round. BY ALAN GOULD, Assoclated Press Sports Editor. EW YORK, February 11.— To the strange and baf- fling career of Primo Car- nera, the big heave-and- haul man of the heavyweights, today belonged a 13-round knock- out victory over blond Ernie Schaaf of Boston and, as a prob- able consequence, a return match with Jack Sharkey for the heavy- weight championship of the world. If it was all a calculated business, as many suggested in advance and felt that a dull, colorless fight confirmed, the jeering capacity crowd of 20,000 suddenly was furnished an astonishing sight by the apparent utter collapse of Schaal after being tapped lightly in the face by & left jab early in the thirteenth round. Sluggish from the start and_con- spicuously unconscious at the finish, Schaaf toppled back from Primo' blow, sat down a bit bewildered and then’ after a few seconds meditation he crumpled in a heap in the resin. After defying frantic efforts to revive him in his corner, Ernie was lugged out of the ring, ironically enough, by Shar- key and two policemen. A half hour later he was taken for examination to the nearby Polyclinic Hospital, suffer- ing, according to the statement of his own and the Boxing Commisison’s d tor, from a “slight concussiol ‘There, & short lxlme Aruz:drd, he rted to have regal ‘con- clousnss, to be Testing comfortanty and in no danger. F it wasn’t, as many critics insisted, one of the best “acts” the prize ring has known in many a day, it was very dramatic and also disconcerting to those at the ringside who were bored by 12 slow, lumbering rounds and in no way impressed by the poke th.ltJut Ernie on.the floor for the first time and “out,” while Referee Billy (Glover) Cavanaugh, boxing coach- at West Point, counted 10, 51 seconds after the start of their last round. Right up to the finish it looked a “barney” to the experts, many of whom had warned the customers in advance and developed a consequent rush for the turnstiles that packed the arena and forced the mounted police to dis- perse the overflow crowd. Carnera, from the start, outspeeded, outboxed and outpunched his smaller rival, using his extra weight of nearly 60 pounds to big advantage and hand- ling Ernie with ease at close quarters. But Primo couldn't punch effectively and Schaaf apparently wouldn't unless it was a fact that he was weakened and discouraged by the sheer power in Carnera’s bulk. left that put Schaaf on the floor, for the first and only time, ‘was nowhere ne{\r uc mbusth‘l: e of the c! wallops Carnera mhnded ell‘l.l!rmll.;l{ with much earnest- ness. Nevertheless, there was blond Ernie on ethe floor, apparently quite dead to the world; there was the mani- fest.alarm of all his handlers, the po- lice, the.gdoctors, and the trip to the hospital. . Mpon of the crowd remained for fully 15 minutes, arguing and jeering, equally as baffled as the ringsiders as to whether to accept the developments at their face value. Johnny Buckley, Schaaf’s manager, indignantly rejected the suspicions of visitors to the dressing room and loudly recalled that Ernie had passed out in much the same way from a battering at the very close of his fight with Max Baer in Chicago last Fall. ‘A S for the fight itself, aside from the novelty that always is asso- clated with Carncra’s perform- ances, there was little or no excitement. Schaaf, slow and uneble to penetrate Carnera’s awkward defen-e, won only one of the 13 rounds. This was the fourth, in which he brought blood from Primo’s nese with a left jab. There- after Schaaf left this part of Carnera’s | anatomy strictly alone. He did not land | & half dozen effective punches in the entire fight. Carnera, a bit pale at the beginning, gained quickly in confidence and poise. He increased his pace, as the fight went along. He beat a tattoo on Ernie’s ribs ‘with a ponderous right. He pushed and shoved the smaller man around. Along sbout the eighth round, the Italian be- gan to smile at friends around the ringside. He showed amazing agllity, but he landed no severe blows and took none. ROM the eighth round to the finish | the.galleries loosed an outburst of | boos_at every bell that sent the | men to their corners. Sharkey, mean- | while, poured verbal advice into the | ears of his protege, without effect. The odds had switched suddenly to Carnera, an 8-to-5 choice at the Ting- side, and the outcome justified them. Carnera weighed 2641;; Schaaf, 207%%.

By the Associated Press. , Fia., February 11.—Wiffy Cox of Brooklyn showed the way in the second round of the annual Gasparilla Open Golf Tournament today after a sizzling 32— 33—65, which gave him the lead in the first 18-hole round. His leadership was contested vigor- ously, however, by the field of 105 con- testants for the $1,350 guarantee and the gate receipts. Willie MacFarlane of Tuckahoe, N. Y., and Light Horse Harry Cooper of Chicago tied with 66 strokes each, were next to_Cox. MacFerlane made the turn in 31 strokes, but a drizzle of rain during the last nine caused him to take 35 coming in. Cooper had 33—33. Al Espinosa of Akron had 68 and willingly accorded the credit to an eagle 3 on the eighteenth, where he sank an explosion shot from a trap in front of the green, Seven players were tied at 70 strokes, 2qualling the course par of 35—35.

By the Associated Pre EW YORK, February 11.—Lack- ing the skillful services of the two United States champions, the home forces today appeareq to have little hope of standing off the challenges of Canada’s brilliang skaters and winning any of the four titles at stake in the North American figure skating championships. The. opening part of the two-day competition yesterday gave an- indica- tion of what the results probably will be when the last figure is cut on the smooth surface of the ice club rink in the free skating exhibition tonight. The school figures, those exacting tests that are considered the elements of the in- tricate art of figure skating, were skated yesterday in three divisions, and the Canadian stars won most of the pop- ular acclaim. No_standings - were announced after the preliminariés of the women’s sin- gles, the pairs and the fours competi- tions had been run off. But onlookers were unanimous in saying that the women's championship lay between the two Toronto skaters, Mrs. Constance Wilson Samuel and Mrs. Edward F. Gooderham. ~Mrs. Samuel and her brother, Montgomery Wilson, winner of every pairs title since 1929, again were outstanding in that division. 3 In the fours, skated for the first t ime in the United States, the Toronto eam of Mrs. Samuel, Elizabeth Fisher, Montgomery #¥ilson and Hubert g&out and the Ottawa quartet of Mrs. ore Davis, Prudence Holbrook, Melville Rogers and Guy Owen, appeared bet- | ter than the only United States team, | Suzanne Davis, Mrs. T. W. Blanchard, | Fred Parmenter and Richard Hapgood | of Boston, The entire men’s singles competition | was scheduled for today with the school figures in the morning and the free skating along with the other finals at night, and here again Canada was fa- vored. = Wilson, defending champion, was expected to win, although J. Lester Madden of Boston, 13-year-old Robin Lee of Minneapolis gnd William J.

Mr. Dougan could not untrack our Leroy galloped home with a loser’s ticket in his cuffing party with Eddie Burl. Which makes a story. When Roy came to Washington a | short while ago, it was sans his dress suit, his manicure set, his top hat and his pearl-gray derby. In fact, as the story goes, Dougan rattled down into the cinders very glad that he had on his socks and the buttons on his high- top shoes. But he was happy. And he still was whistling merry | tunes when he popped in Alexandria to fight for a beef-stew purse. And in a the envy of any tramp comedian. He won that fight, and with the same shoes he won three more in a row. Now was Mr. Dougan whistling? And he had a job, too. 0 as an offering to the gods of Luck, Chance and Fortune, his manager, Ralph Murdock, bought Roy green bathrobe, esconted with a gold harp on the front and the name “Leroy Dougan” plastered in gold and black | upon the back.

AYTONA BEACH, Fla., Febru- ary 11.—Motor speed contests develop the automobile just as horse racing improves the | breed, in the opinion of Sir Malcolm Campbell, who next week will seek to better his own land speed mark of 253 mileg an hour. “I have often been asked,” the racer said today, “what is the use of at- tempting these high speeds, but the answer is easy.

But this will be nothing new to little dark-haired Mary Browning, sturdy native of this Catskill foothill country, for she began competing with adult dog handlers, including professionals, at the age of 7. “I think it is derful training for all children J:lal in the chil- J Children i’ie as Dog Handlers Westminster Club Will Reward Technique Regard- less of Canines’ Merits. dren’s classes,” she said today. “At this year’s Westminster show open- ing Monday, I am going to show six collies in the regular classes against the grown-up exhibitors and profes- sional handlers. But I have shown so many years that I don't think I will be as nervous as I was when I started at 7 years of age.” Mary is 15 now and she won't compete in the children’s class, con- tenting herself with standing on the sidelines with other veterans of the show ring to call encouragement to the novices. In the children’s class there will be no awards for the dogs shown by the youngsters, but only for the children who show the greatest ability or promise as juvenile han- dlers. Mary is out for feeling that she has mflo’;‘fl v ahility in the taghark ring. Benefit Auto Owners Through Improvements, Says Campbell of time he benefifs by information that | ts Eventually em.

And, naturally, under the most favorable conditions of the course.” The ruffied condition of the beach, | which has been delaying Campbell's trials, continues to show improvement, { but the driver expressed the belief it | still will be two or $hree days before it is suitable for high-speed racing. | He plans to take his car onto the | course today if weather conditions are | | Bood, to enable photographers to take | | pictures of it.

BY GEORGE CHADWICK. HICAGO, February 11.— That the Chicago White Sox will be strong con- tenders for a first division in the 1933 American League race is rather well estab- lished by facts and figures of- fered today by Henry P. Edwards, publicist for the junior major organization, “The addition of Al Simmons, George Haas and Jimmy Dykes furnishes the power on which the White Sox will climb,” declares Edwards and then proves his statements by the following figures. During the 1932 season, in which Simmons, Haas and Dykes collectively missed only 12 games, the trio made 306 runs, 534 hits, for a total of 801 bases for the Philadelphia Athletics. Measured against that performance is the work of the 10 players, who over | the run of 1932 season, filled the posi- tions that Haas, Simmons and Dykes will fill on the Sox team this Summer. 'HE 10, all of whom have been shipped elsewhere by Chicago, couid make only 192 runs and | 463 hits; a difference of 114 runs and 71 hits in favor of the new Hose play- ers. The former Mackmen accounted for 85 doubles, 19 triples and 47 homers as compared with 84 doubles, 19 triples and oniy 14 home runs for the departed | Chicago players. Simmons drove in "151 runs, Dykes, 90, and Haas, who batted in the sacrifice position, §5. Red | Kress was the only member of the | White Sox to excel even Haas in driv- |ing home runs, his record being 66, | while Luke Appling accounted for 63, So if Simmons, Haas and Dykes per- form up to their 1932 level, tne attack of the White Sox will have been greatly | strengthened. Detensively the addition of Sim- mons, Dykes and Haas also will bring | an improvement to Chicago’s play. | Dykes will give Chicago ample defen- | sive power at third base, a position that | was poorly covered last year. { N 1932 Chicago used six third base- | mer?, and that crowd was guilty of 47 errors, accepting 407 out of 454 | chances for an average of .896. On | the other hand, Dykes' fielding aver- | age at Philadelphia was .980—a dif- | ference of .84 points, which is much greater than the numerals would in- aicate. The fielding of Simmons and | Haas was far better than that of the | mob that attempted to play the out- | field for Chicago last season. The team Lew Fonscca hopes to piace on the ficld when the season opens wiil, on 1932 performance, have a batilng average of .285 as compared with the .26/ percentage accummulated by the ciub that finished seventh in the 1932 race. This mark cf .285 would put the Sox right up amang the batting leaders of the American League. There is pos- sibility that this mark may even be improved for Kress batted far under his usual level last year and Fonseca, al- | ways a .300 hitter, was in only & few games, Appling improved in bat- ung sufficiently last season to become a prospective 300 hitter and both Billy | Sullivan and Frank Grube are develop- ing. we b VEN if the Chicago pitching is no better than it was in 1932 the Sox will be a better team, for with their increased batting power and de- fensive strength the club will win more ginthe close gares. The Sox have not Comiskey wrecked his club in 1920, but there is a fine chance they will top the second division or climb into the top four this Summer. “What 1932 first division club do you expect to displace?” Louis Comiskey was asked. “Let_the other fellows worry about that. I don't cere what team we shove down so long as we finish in the first division and that's just what we are | soing to do,” snorted Comiskey, who % one of our best snorters. | MEADE BRADLEY JOCKEY “Long-Shot” Rider Reports to New Stable March 15.
