ROLL 683 AND 660 CNOPENING NIGHT Each Has Handicap of 53.! Paul Harrison’s 652 Is Best From Scratch. | BY ROD THOMAS. SURPRISE to themselves, two bowlers the average duckpin fan never heatd of today led an imposing list in the roll- off of The Evening Star tournament, which opened last night at the Lucky Strike. They were Melvin B. Rock of Bethesda and N. W. Koontz of the Masonic League, Rock with a score of 689 and Koontz with 660. They had the same handicap of 53 pins, based on a league average of 103. Including the handicap, Rock’s score was the highest ever made in the tournament, the previous record | having been 679, rolled two years ago | by Carroll Daly and equaled last year by Jack Whalen. A stepping stone to cash, the handi- cap is no aid to gl but Rock gath- | ered both last nignt. His 689 is con- | sidered certain to put him in the pay- off and he shot a game of 161 that a Joe Harrison would relish. For second high game honors of the evening he tied with the redoubtable Ed Blakeney, but Blakeney slumped in other strings and got approximately nowhere with a set of including an 8-pin handicap. Ed Espey's 164 was the top single string. I Paul Harrison of the Arcadia, who scattered 652 sticks. His handicap of 5 pins enabled him to pull up third with 657. Paul had all sorts of tough luck. In one game twice he slid pins with apparent per- | fection for monkey spares that didn’t materialize. To achieve his best score, | 153 in the second, he made three bank shots for marks. For the first three | games he totaled 405, then spoiled a | sensational set with a game of 98.| He put on a strong finish with 149. Lee Rothgeb, who won thé Silver Spring preliminary, continued “hot” in the roll-off. Including 25 pins handicap. his score was 653 and placed him fourth.

Hey ! Cornell, How About Louis, Yarosz and the Baer Boys. BY FRANCIS E. STAN, CCORDING to the reams of ballyhooey ~Mr. Big Joe‘ Holman deposits daily in our department, Promoter Fatso Cornell is flitting in birdlike fashion from town to town with a contract in one pudgy paw and a fountain pen in the other, trying to find fighters who can write and who are succeptible to signing for fights. This is gocd news, even if Mr. C. Egbert Cornell hasn't had much luck so far. If what Mr. Holman writes is true, it marks the end of a correspond- ence era on the part of Washington's boxing promoters; an era of prosperity | East. The boys who were lucky to get a four-round fight and two saw-| bucks elsewhere suddenly found the mailmen were handling them offers of 100 smackers and more to scrap in Washington and *“not against no scuthpaws neither.” | Even Mons. Goldie Ahearn. the| successful matchmaker, was guilty of | this crime. Mons. Ahearn blushes | when you mention the time he im-| ported one Harry Alexanian by mail ; turned up, proved a likeable fellow, and a very courageous chap The only trouble was that we have| some likeable and courageous boys al- | ready: what we needed were fighters. Unfortunately, Mr. Alexanian o was not much of a fighter. Harry Serody knocked him over in short order. | s | While Catsup Runs Low. ONS. AHEARN also ballyhooed a | Tiger Phipps. He was colossal. | declared Ahearn, in his modest way. He could box, punch. scowl and sneer with the most talented rassler Mons. Ahearn neglected to say whether | he could “take it.” which was just as | well. It might have destroyed faith | in Goldie's ability to sling adjectives accurately, for the Tiger scowled, | then buried his nose in the canvas when his chin came in contact with a | fist thrown, I think, by young Joe Firrcne. I never kept a count of the correspondence fighters -who were disappointments. but it is almost certain the disappoint- ments outnumbered the sur- prises. Now, all this promises to come to an end. While his hamburgers grow cold. and the catsup bottles run low, Mr. Eg- bert Cornell is taking off his restaurant apron and personally scouting his future fighters, says Mr. Holman. An’ No Charge, Either. RAILROAD ticket is said to be stamp, so in the sincere hope | that Fatso can save a little money, I| think maybe he'd like a few addreses. | Joe Louis, the colored clouter, hails | for honors in the set are entering from Detroit. Even if he did draw | nearly $29,000 for his fight with Lee | Ramage recently, there was Teddy Yarosz, the middleweight king (?), on the card also. Furthermore, it is Teli- ably reported the walloping Joe Louis | is not sliced into littlespieces, nor will | he be, thus adding to his troubles in | getting big shots in big fight spots. | This should make it easier for Mr. Cornell, who could do worse, perhaps, than match Louis with Billy Jones or some other ranking colored scrapper. Teddy Yarosz may not go down in boxing history as one of the greats, but at least he is a champion of the world, and, as such, he possibly is| itching to get another crack at that | upstart, Babe Risko, who knocked him | out the other night.

Yarosz, Fats, lives in Pittsburgh: Risko in Scranton. The information desk, at Union Station can furnish railroad rates. Will Do My Bit. | AXMILLIAN ADELBERT BAER may have seemed a little stiff with his demands for the services of himself and Brother Buddy a few weeks ago, but after what Maxie | did to the poor old Kingfish he may | be worth it now. Baer's hot stuff, and Marty Gallagher's always hot stuff in | | cause they're still talking about his win over poor young Ray Impellitiere. Max and Marty, even if it is only four rounds, may prove an attraction. For Buddy, you might get Bob Tow if the Baer kid is willing to go that steep on opposition. The ramblings of Mr. Cornell over the country in search of fistic talent sound like great stuff. Of course, it | £ will mean the loss of a certain amount of that suspense involved when you wait two or three rounds for an un- known fighter to show the stuff—if he’s got any—that the promoter read With Mr. Cornell perscnally putting his okay on a fight- er because he saw him work, it would reduce the situation to something like reaching down in a cellophane grab- bag; in other words, you would have a pretly good idea of what you are spending your money for. As for you, Mr. Cornell, please accept the above - mentioned suggestions as suggestions alone, not expectations. But if you would make serious efforts to bring Messrs. Louis, Yarosz and Risko, and the Brothers Baer to Washington, I will even volun- teer to put on your apron and peddle your hamburgers while You are absent. X o ‘WANTS D. C. GRID PROS.

THE MAN WHO REALLY UNDERSTANDS T\ “CURVE CONTROL 4 — GrLenn WOLSTENHOLME ' “ANUFF SED “... THE SPORTLIGHT Base Ball Material; - Was Poor Grid Passer Until This Year. | OS ANGELES, January 3.— ! Some big league ball club is going to have a great com- | petitor with a whiplash arm next Summer. The name is Dixie Howell, the Big Surf of the Crimson Tide, who passed, ran and kicked Stanford into a state of dizziness New Year day. I asked Hank Crisp, Alabama’s ath- “letic director and line coach, what position Howell played. “Second, short, third or the outfield,” Crisp said. “He is a fine infielder and a fine outfielder, a corking hitter, and you can figure for yourself how he looks around the bases. “In addition to that. he has a smart head and ice water in his veins. He always is better when the going is tougher. Base ball is his big game.” “On the morning of the game” Frank Thomas said, “Howell was so keyed up that he became slightly ill with nervous indigestion. He was quite sick after that 67-yard run with stomach cramps, and so I gave him a short rest. “It was all a matter of pent-up nervous energy ready to explode at game time, and when the whistle blew, Dixie was the coolest, calmest man on the field. I thought he did fairly well for a sick man,” Thomas added with a grin. He also did fairly well for three or four well men. | Howell’s Passing. & ERE'S another funny angle about Howell,” Thomas said. “For two years he had been a brilliant kicker and ball carrier, one of the best I ever saw. But he couldn’t hit a barn with a pass. So last Spring I told him the difference it would make if he would only add passing to his equipment. That was all I had to say. He went out and learned it. How? 3 | Just by intelligent practice. When the season opened-last Fall he could hit 5| you in the eye with a foot ball at 40 yards. He can do about the same thing with a foot ball a good infieider can do with a base ball.” And that's about the way Howell | and a pair of flying feet on the job | BY GRANTLAND RIC] back who struck with power and dash such as Grayson threw against us. He is one of the best running backs I've ever seen. But Stanford had no pass attack to mix up with her running game. You cant go out and find great passers. With a passing attack to cpen us up. Grayson might have been running vet.” “What do you consider the high spot, the big moment of the game?>” I asked Thomas, one of the ablest coaches in foot ball. “Howell’s 67-yard run for a touchdown,” he said. “At that point we were leading only 9 to 7. “The Stanford defense had dropped back to stop our passing. When How- ell ran that 67 yards the Stanford defense was then in a tough spot. If it stayed up—Howell passed. If it dropped back—Howell ran. “How did he get away?” I asked Hank Crisp, the keen, wiry coach on top of the play. “He feinted both Moscrip and Gray- son out of position,” Crisp said, “with a hip weave and a sudden turn—and then he was away. It was a beautiful piece of speed and deception com- bined, worked against two star foot | ball players. For Moscrip is the best defensive end we've met in a long time.” These were the two Stanford play- ers that drew most of Alabama's praise. “And don't forget.” one of the Alabama coaches said, “that Marr, our guard, was the best man on the field, and Kay Francis was a pretty busy boy all afternoon. Southern Foot Ball. HE South rode two winners New Year day. The double victories of Alabama and Tulane over unbeaten Stanford and unbeaten Temple from the Far West and the East, sent Southern foot ball stock soaring skyward. Both Stanford and Temple had big, fast teams but it was the greater alertness of Alabama and Tulane that carried Tide and Wave, Crimson and Green, over the crest. A peculiar feature of Stan- slipped the leather to Don Hutson and others—on a dead line to the spot. His accuracy was a matter of inches, not of feet, where interception was at least a difficult job. “Howell to Hutson” is a phrase the West Coast will remember for a long, long time. Almost no deception was employed on the first aerial assaults as Howell dropped back, located his target and then started throwing strikes through the middle. It was bing-bing-bing— six times in a row, down the field—to Hutson most-of the time—with Stan- ford's defense completely bewildered, despite the fact that Stanford had four fast backs trying to break up the deadly shower. Stanford should have covered Hut- son to better effect, but in that case Howell had Bryant and others almost as . Hutson, 6 feet 2, weighing 200 pounds, a 9.8 second man for the hundred, with a pair of big, powerful hands, was the ideal target. Twice he ran by Stanford's last line of de- fense to take passes that carried well over 50 yards. That showed Hutson’s speed. Stanford’s Play. “Q TANFORD had one of the fastest, hardest tunning attacks I have seen in s long time” Coach Thomas said. “We have faced no ’ ford’s passing is this—if it had been only a little better, Ala- bama would have had at least four more interceptions. “Most of their passes were so low and short,” one Alabama back re- marked, “that we couldn’t quite get to 'em. I'had my finger tips on a pair of them, but couldn’t quite make it. I sure wish they had gotten those passes up just a little higher.” Alabama has now been to the West Coast five times with a run of four victories and a tie. As Capt. Lee said—"we didn't want to be the team to spoil this record.” The fury of Alabama’s 22-point assault in the second period was a reflection of this inner feeling. This Alabama team wasn’t going to be beaten—no - mater how good Stanford was. The inner flame was entirely too hot. “And don't overlook the fact,” Bob Zuppke said, “that Howell's kicking was about as fine a job as any crowd ever looked at. That'’s what caught my eye.” It will be somey time before foot ball sees a back who can pass, kick, run and defend with the all-around ability of this 161-pound entry from THURSDAY, JANUARY 3, 1935.
