NEEDS TITLE CLASS T0 SCORE TUESDAY Pete Facing Test Fans Have Awaited in Battle With Ex-Feather Champ. ELLING newspapers to work * his way through high school, playing base ball, foot ball, basket ball, golf, studying en- gineering, globe trotting, boxing and finally becoming a stockholder in several corporations are only a few of the achievements little Pete Sar- ron, who battles Tommy Paul Tues- day at Portner’s Arena, has crammed mt?hhts 25 years of activity on this earth. The raven-haired Alabaman with the powerful Southern accent, whose big ambition (which doubtless you never guessed) is to win the world featherweight championship, is a great deal more than just a fighter. i\hn‘c: some shucks of a scrapper, at Boxing was the last of Sarron's sports accomplishments. While work- ing himself through Birmingham High School, Pete also found time to win positions as shortstop on the base ball team, quarterback on the foot ball eleven, forward cn the bas- ket ball five and Jearn to swing & wicked mashie on the golf course. The ring came next. As an ama- teur he won the Southeastern and BY FRANCIS E.

IMMY ERWIN, the tall Texan who recently took Sarron under his wing, is downright optimistic. In his Texas drawl, Erwin predicts: “Tommy Paul will get the surprise of his young life when he tackles Sarron. Pete is ready and his windmill style that | fooled his opponents thus far, but caused some critics to say hell turn ‘clown’ against a top-notcher, i5 going to fool Paul plenty. “Paul is a great fighter, sure. Any- body who wins a National Boxing Asso- ciation championship tournament like he did—over fighters like La Barba, Sar- ron. Datto and Pena—has to be good But Tommy's never seen a fighter like Barron.” ARRON'S bid for national recogni- tion will be watched with keen in- terest by local fandom. Not since Al Foreman's heyday has a non-native fighter created such a furore in Wash- Ington as has the swarthy Syrien battler. . His rise to popularity has been little short of amazing here. Two months ago, unheralded and unsung, Pete ar- rived in the Capital and Was greeted with a monumental amount of indif- ference. In three fights he won 20 of 22 rounds and threw more gloves per round than most fighters to show here throw in 10 heats. Although Sarron competed in_the | same N. B. A. tournament with Paul, the pair never met. Sarron, after a tour of New Zealand and Australia, where he won the featherweight titles of those countries, headed for Detroit and the tourney. Fidel La Barba out- pointed Pete on a hair-line decision. | Paul went on to win the tourney. | Shoggly after, Sarron was stricken | with a severe attack of neuritis in his right arm. For months he was unable to enter the ring. Then several molars were yanked and his neuritis disap- peared. The ring game beckoned again and Sarron, forgotten, bobbed up in the Capital. NLIKE most top-notchers to appear | here, Paul is far from “washed up.” | On the contrary the conqueror of Freddie Miller, Baby Arizmendi, Fidel La Barba, Mose Butch, Frankie Genaro, Emil Paluso, to mention a few, is at the peak of his career. He is hot after & championship crack at Miller, whom he recently defeated in a non-title bout. Impressive as he has been, Sarron will enter the ring the underdog. But unless some grand wool-pulling has been done around these parts the last 60 days, Paul will have a tartar on his hands. VENZKE FAILS IN TRY FOR 3-4-MILE RECORD| Nosed Out in Spring Handicap at Penn, but Sets Franklin Field Mark of 3:04. By the Associated Press. HILADELPHIA, April 22.—In an at- tempt on the world outdoor three- | quarter mile mark, Gene Venzke, | record holder for the indoor mile, today | set a new Franklin Field time for the distance but fell more than a second short of his desire. The flashy University of Pennsylvania | freshman, running scratch in the three- quarter mile event of the annual Penn Spring Handicap Meet, covered the dis- tance in 3 minutes, 4 seconds, eclipsing the field mark of 3:0435 set by Danny Dean, former intercollegiate cross- country titlist. Venzke's attempt was at the 38-year- | it old 3:02 4/5 world record held by Tom- my Conefl. Jack Perry, who started with 100 yards handicap, nosed out Venzke in to- | day's race.

The Old Line lacrosse ten beat the Navy, 7 to 3, in a stirring finith, and the Terp tracksters were given a 94-t0-32 beating by the Middies. Navy was assured the track victory befcre the meet began, and was given 50-50 chance to score at lacrosse, a vic- tory it much coveted. It was the fourth straight year that the Old Liners have a:lmbled the Middies in the stick pas- e.

Joe Turner is boss, we have a sneaking suspicion that something akin to a straight trade be- tween the two rival rassling factions is responsible for Herr Dick Shikat's pres- encek at the Washington Auditorium this ‘week. 7sh1k'nt for Savoldi, From the local headquarters comes word Shikat became pceved at Mr. Tootsle Mondt, his manager, and de- parted from the Jack Curley clique in a huff. It may be perfectly true, but it's quite coincidental it happened at the same time Joe Savoldi was signed by Curley for three matches—with Mc- Cready, Lewis and Browning. NYWAY, Herr Richard should be quite welcome in the Londos-White Co. If Londos ever decides to rassle a real opponent, Shikat is the gent who wculd get the match, and tans probably will go for it in a 1 ge Lol y. If, by any chance, Londos entertains the idea of rassling Shikat, the German prebably will have to campaign a bit at first to steam up the match. And it s possible he will be doing just that when he meets Fred Grobmier Thurs- day at the Auditorium in a finish ex- ‘hibition.

He quickly recovered his composure. To what does he attribute the startling attendance mark? “Well,” Prof. Turner declared, “radio, my ‘knothole geng’ and getting women interested in the game, I would say. “Jim McGrath, who broadcasts the matches, deserves a lot of credit. The kids, who are allowed to see the shows for two bits, bring their dads and often their mothers with them.

N potent mixture for the Madison Square Garden Corporation. If the charm works, it will mean that a new order of things will shape heavyweight matches in the future. Jack is now working out the details of the Max Schmeling-Max Baer fight scheduled for June 8, but he is not overlooking any chances of corraling the winner of the Jack Sharkey-Primo Carnera fracas. Joe Jacobs, manager of Schmeling. is working hand in glove with Dempsey. ‘The shrewd manipulator of the Ger- man thumper really induced Dempsey to'invade this city by lining up with him, and it" was then an easy matter to get Baer. The latter's manager, Ancil Hoffman, is a friend of long standing and next to Tommy Simpson, the Oakland promoter, has more in- fluence with the former title holder than any promoter in the business. Sharkey has been known to crack wide open at the mention of Dempsey’s name. The Bostonian still believes that Dempsey beited him out of a champion- ship match with Gene Tumney by il- degal blows. While it is true that Sharkey would much prefer fighting Dempsey than fighting for him, he is too much of a business man to over- look a big match with the magic name of Jack Dempsey to' attract the pay- ing fans. DEMPSEY can show him where he can’make more money than he would by fighting for Madison Square Gar- den he will sign on the dotted line. His contract with the Garden only holds for the Carnera match and then he is free to_negotiate elsewhere. Dempsey is not overlooking Carnera. In the event that the giant Italian is returned the winner over Sharkey, it goes without saying that Bill Duffy, Jack’s close pal, will gladly work with . The tie-up all around is a close one and about the best that could be gotten together to give the Garden a fight and break the monopoly it has exerted over heavyweight titular matches since the advent of Tex Rickard 10 years ago. ‘While all this is going on, the Gar- den crowd is not idle. It is true that the profits of the big outdoor shows have made it possible for the Garden to write off losses incidental to poor matches made indoors. The huge bowl | in Long Island City is a direct result of profitable matches and to quit now | would result in a staggering loss. For this reason the Garden people will not step aside without a bitter fight. Schmeling made his first start In the Garden against Joe Monte. Each and every fight since then has been under the same auspices. No little effort was exerted in his behalf to restore him to good standing after he had welshed on several contracts to enabie him to gain m‘l;.l“e he now holds in the fistic worl BY SPARROW McGANN. EW YORK, April 22.—Jack Dempsey is brewing a ARNERA got away to a good start in this country when he was served a set-up in Big Boy Peterson. He strayed out of bounds for a tour that | took him all over the country, but the | only real money he was ever paid came- | from the coffers of. the Garden. Baer was brought to this city twice, and while he made a good showing he did not set the fans to raving over his prowess. The fault was his own. He was capable of better form, but went in for clowning. Soon after Sharkey broke into the limelight he became a Garden product exclusively. This is not meant as a pun. It is true that Sharkey made some fights of the hot-house variety, but he also turned in some it performances. And so it looks like a big line-up against the interests that made boxing. on a big scale possible in the big city. | If the quartet of big-timers stick long enough under Dempsey's leadership they will cause no end of trouble. But once they fall out, the Garden people will move in and take over the reins and | those who jumped the traces will have to look to other fields.
