SPORTS. A—10 Thomas Grey, collie. Both are owne Church, Va. HE Shetland sheep dog is a pocket edition of the collie and combines much of his beauty I and grace with the virtue of small size. In disposition, too, the Shetland sheep dog resembles the collie. He has the herding and pro- tective instincts of the true sheep dog, is quiet and affectionate, and particu- larly fond of children. Like the collie, the Shetland sheep dog comes in sable and white, tri- color and blue merle. White is not recognized as a Shetland sheep dog color. The coat of the Sheltie should be thick and harsh with a furry under- coat. Its ears are semi-prick, its eyes | dark and not too large. This breed has not been bred for show conformation long enough to have its type as firmly set as is the collie’s, therefore even some of the best speciments lack the smoothness of outline of head found in show collies. Body properties, however, have reached a high state of perfection and should not be sacrificed to head.

OXING buzz-saws specializing | in acticn, Petey Sarron and Joe Temes, will take the ring | at Griffith Stadium tonight for what should prove the prime battle | of Washington's outdoor fight season. | These feathers are schedlled for a 10- | round route that promises to be jammed with danger for each of the eager and earnest scrappers. ‘The tussle will mark Sarron’s return to the ring after an absence of more than four months ard culminates a | quest begun by Temes four years ago. As far back as 1931 the Tampa lad | sought a meeting with Sarron and several times a match was made, but always something happened to prevent them getting in the ring together. Highly ranked nationally, Sarron will enter tonight's engagement only slightly favored over Temes. The lat- ter will have a substantial following because of his sensational record of 10 wins and a draw here since he came up from the South in April. Fighters' Styles Similar. EMES’ greatest and most surprising victory since he began campaign- ing in the Capital was that over Roger Bernard, Flint, Mich, luminary Temes got his shot at Bernard when Sarron, who had been matched with the flailing Flint flash, had to forego the contest because of an attack of boils. It was this win that qualified Temes for the meeting with the Bir- mingham boy tonight. Temes is a powerful body puncher and throws his fists from all angles In his fights here he always has car ried the battle to his opponent. In Sarron the Tampan will encounter a fighter who proceeds along similar lines. Petey has a forceful wallop for one of his weight and is a willing mixer. Sarron is a much more experienced fighter than Temes. He is rated among the world's first 10 feather- weights and has scored over nine ma- jor opponents in succession. However, Temes has triumphed over several boys who have defeated Sarron or held the Birmingham buster to a draw. Four Supporting Bouts. 'OUR bouts will support the Sarron- ‘Temes feature tonight. In a six- round semi-final Meyer Rowan and Gene Buffalo, colored welters, who staged a furious fight here recently, will mix again. Other six-rounders will send Bill Temes.
