B—8 SPORTS. THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., AUGUST 18, 1935—PART ONE. SPORTS. Smallwood, Overlin After Yarosz Scrap : National Title Tennis Goes Ritzy Base Ball Provides a “Jig-Saw Puzzle” MIDDLES BOAST SMART RECORDS Winner in Clash Tomorrow Night Promised Meeting With Title Holder. BY JOHN B. KELLER. OE SMALLWOOD, fighting prod: igal son of the Capital, is com: ing kack home. There will be no savory veal awaiting Joe tomorrow night, however, when he steps into the rapping ring at Griffith | Stadium. Instead Smellwood will find await- | ing his return none other than Ken Overlin, battling middleweight, who | won the championship of Uncle Sam'’s naval forces not quite a year ago, and bumping into Ken over a sched- uled 10-round route promises to make the evening nothing light for Joe. To urge these bouncing boxers to put all they have into their fight— as if they needed to be urged—Goldie Ahearn, matchmaker of the promot- ing Turner-Ahearn combine, has an- nounced that the winner will get a shot at Teddy Yarosz, holder of the raiddleweight title. That is plenty to bring out the best in Smallwood and Overlin, Washington gets this Smallwood- Overlin match despite eager bidding by Philadelphia interests. Overlin wanted the fight here and, as he beat Smallwood in their only meeting three years ago. Jo= was ready to agree to & return bout anywhere. Overlin Wins Over Good Ones. IN TAKING on Overlin again, Small- wood runs into a boxing bear. Ken was far on the way toward national prominence until he cracked a hand | in a fight with Dan Hassett in Phila- delphia last October. He had licked such as Tony D'Allesandro, Tommy Rios and Paul Pirrone and had been barely beaten by Vince Dundee.

He had Remus all over the ring before knocking out Frankie in the seventh round. was no fluke sbout Overlin's victory. He had the fighting goo(k After getting the Navy title, knocked out Pat Flahl’rly in Six rounds and outpointed Hassett. That brought his record up to 39 victories, five by knockouts, against three losses in 42 contests. Only Dundee, Pirrone | and Jimmy Smith had licked him But he had come back after a lay-off of little more than a month to (ro\mce Pirrone. Since his hand mended Overlin has had two fights. His last was with Henry Firpo in the main event of an Atlantic City show this month. Ken won handily and he never nursed the hand, Local Boy Makes Good. MALLWOOD, who began his fight- ing career under the Mohawk Athletic Club colors here, is a keen ringman and throws a wicked punch. Oddly, he attributes his success to having his nose broken in one of his early engagements. “It was a great break,” says Smallwood, both for the nose and him. ‘It cured me ~* a swollen head and took me out of tie palooka class,” he explained. “I thought I was pretty good looking fellow and I was proud | of my appearance. So proud I didn't want to get my features mussed iip. “Well, I ran into this rough Rios and before I could get set he shot a right that spread my nose all over my face. Did I get mad. me a fighter then and there. Now I'm not worrying how I look any more. It’s how I fight that bothers me.” Joe seems to have been a good fighter since. He has a long winning string including 43 knockouts. In his lighter days he knocked out Bus Ma- lone for the Southern welter title and he dropped Buster Newberry for the Southern middleweight laurels. He has trimmed Dundee, Rios and Smith and given Babe Risko, Yarosz's con. queror in a non-title fight, a great battle. Smallwood appears to have the stufl to make trouble for Overlin. | Lipps, Buffalo in Prelim. ACKING this 10-round feature be- tween Smallwood and Overlin will be preliminaries far better than ordinarily offered so far as the class of the fighters is concerned. Such pleasing scrappers as Joe Lipps of Georgia, Gene Buffalo, the flashy col- | ored welter from Philadelphia, and Frankie Blair, the battling welter- weight of the ring-famous Blair fam- ily of Camden, N. J, are to figure in six-rounders. Lipps, who has made himself popu- lar in two appearances here this Sum- mer, will meet Julius Vight, a heavy from upper New York. Buffalo, who Lwice has scored over the sturdy Meyer Rowan at the ball yard, is down for an argument with Sammy Blackburn of Chester, Pa. Blackburn has to his credit a win over Buffalo. Blair will swap punches with Eddie Faris, a mnewcomer from Lancaster, Pa. The show will get under way at 8:30 o'clock with a four.rounder be- tween Sammy Mara, an importation from Tampa, and Miller Lee of Balti- more. They are feathers.

HEY can't stay away from one another, Joe Savoldi and Jack Donovan. Each is forever try- ing to flatten the other. For the third time here this Summer these | brawlers will grapple at Griffith Sta- dium on Thursday night, with Dono- van still trying to get the better of the former Notre Dame foot ball star. Although Savoldi got the verdicts in the two meetings at the ball yard, mat maddies of the Capital are yet to be convinced he has something on Donovan in a wrestling way. Ques- tionable tactics employed by Joe in the bouts left considerable doubt as to whether he is superior to the Pa- cific Coast redhead. Donovan insists he can take Sa- voldi's measure if given enough time and has asked Promoter Joe Turner not to limit Thursday night's match to the customary two hours. “I'vi learned plenty about Savoldi's style, says Donovan, “and in a finish match I can outlast and outgame him.” Savoldi when last here tackled | Danno O’Mahoney, new king of the wrestling realm, and lost through dis- qualification. Joe tossed Danno but | neglected to confine his wrestling ac- tivities to the ring. He kicked Danno out of action when the latter was out- side the ropes. day. In a semi-final limited to 45 minutes old friends and favorites here will mix. Dick Raines, colorful Texas cowboy, and Hans Kampfer will be back.

LEVELAND, August 17.—Th’ winnah of the first two rounds—Joe Vosmik. Encountering his worst day since the first couple of weeks of the season, Buddy Myer dropped behind Vosmik today in the fight for the American League batting champion- ship. Myer's average dropped from .350 to .345, as he made only one hit in seven times at bat. Vosmik’s four safeties in seven tries boosted his average two points—from .346 to .348. In the first game Myer's batting efforts resulted in the following: A strikeout, grounder to Hale, tap to Lee, pop to Hale and double play, end- ing the game. Vosmik, in the opener, doubled, hit a home run, walked, lined to Schulte and walked. In the nightcap Myer grounded to short, hit into another double play, forced a mate at second and singled on his last trip. Vosmik's second game saw him| 4 ‘Myer, Vosmik Continue Stick Struggle in Twin Bill Today ? ground to short, roll to second, single to right and triple to right. There are four more Vosmik-Myer rounds during this series, though.” To- morrow the Griffs and Indians will meet in another double-header, while single games will follow on Monday and Tuesday. Phil Hensiek, the Albany recruif, and Ed Linke will do the Washington throwing tomorrow. They probably will be opposed by Mel Harder and either Walter Stewart, the ex-Griff, or Oral Hildebrand. When Lloyd Brown shut out the Griffs in yesterday's second geme 1t was the ninth time our side has been whitewashed this season. Every club in the league now, except St. Louis, has done the trick. Myer's failure to hit in the opener marked the twenty-first game in which he has failed to sock safely at least once. Twenty-one out of 107 games indefinitely for | 4 isn't bad. ‘Thus far Buddy has fostered con- secuitve game streaks of 21, 10 (twice), 8 and 7 tilts, F.E. 8. BUDGE CONQUERS SHIELDS IN FINAL Top-Seeded Netman Weak- ens After Coming From Rear at Newport. By the Associated Press. EWPORT, R. I, August 17.— Tireless Don Budge of Oak- land, Calif., who gained what little glory the United States Davis Cup team achieved in the chal- lenge round with England, today out- lasted Frank Shields of New York, for a 6—3, 5—17, 3—6, 8--5, 6—1 victory in the nineteenth Newport Casino in- vitation singles tennis finale. Shields, who interrupted his tennis career to become a film player in Hollywood, more than held his own for almost four sets. Shields then teamed with Frankie Parker of Spring Lake, N. J, and they were out-fumbled by Wilmer Hines of Columbia, 8. C.,, and Henry Culley of Santa Barbara, Calif, for the Casino doubles victory, 3—8, 9—11, 6—2, 6—3, 75, After dropping the first set, Shields, who was top-seeded, got his slashing service and blazing smashers under control and battered down the ac- curate Budge for the next two sets. He was a bit wobbly when they re- turned to the court after the 10- minute rest period, #nd Budge reeled off the first two games. Shields, how- ever, captured the rext two to even the set, and although forced to run a break-neck speed by his sharp- remained in the legs started to tire along about the 10th game.

Weaenking rapidly and realizing that he would not be able to follow the speedy Budge through a fifth set, Shields took a desperate gamble and lost He tried to deuce the game with a service ace and his first ball whizzed into the net, He )ut everything he in the webbing, and the double-fault gave Budge the set and squared the | match. The deciding series of games were | walkaways for Budge, who applied | all possible pressure against his | heavier but weaker rival. | ——— | BOSOX ARE SOCKED | TWICE BY BROWNSV",‘; : Hornsby Clan Scores, 7-0, After | Running Off With Opening Batfest by 11-7.

In a tri-color pamphlet the West | Side Tennis Club springs into the lists as sponsor of a fortnight in | which society may preen and posture | and in general emulate the swank {and circumstance of Wimbledon | where, as all know, the royal fam- ily is in constant attendance or, in the less important stages of tourney play, represented by regal runners-up. Ungquestionably Wimbledon is the social event of the English Summer | season. Forest Hills would be no less so, is determined to be no less so. True, no ordained queen and no duly constituted king will, sit in a royal box at West Side; but if the elect | of Southampton, the Hempsteads, Tuxedo and all the Oranges yield to | the siren voice of social propaganda, | royalty hardly will be missed in the | attractive concrete stadium on the broiling Long Island plain. A Selling Argument. ERE at Forest Hills,” so runs the song. “will be seen tennis devotees, sportsmen, society and well- [ known players of polo and other sport champmns Stars of stage, radio and | screen may be seen intently watching | at close range the strenuous and sometimes historic battles for tennis honors. The 22 turf courts and the lovely green and shrubbery of the club grounds furnish a charming set- ting for such distinguished visitors. “Well-known figures of business and politics may be seen hobnobbing | with their friends and enjoying re- freshments in the bright umbrella tea garden, or at the shaded stadium counters. (Where, it should have been | added, the hot dogs are of a breed | which are as to the Coney Island red hots and roadside frankfurters as Westminster canines to the mongrels of a city gutter.) Bargain for Society. 'HIS new era in tennis"—meaning the combined men’s and wom- en’s and veteran's singles—"will es- tablish the championships as the out- | standing event of the sporting season. Now—there is a tennis week in the social and sporting calendar.” And high time, too. Especially as “there never was so much sport and social activity offered for so little money.” Certainly this must prove a consideration. Will you tell us whenever in history society was of- | fered an opportunity to establish itself |in a new sphere for the cost of $12.50? “Think of it,” cries the pamphlet. | We are thinking and we tell society right now that if it misses this great opportunity, the sport of tennis will have to worry along without it. And what a calamity that would be. 1a double with two down and !hen‘ ot | BRAVES HAVE BIG INNING Score Six Times in Second to Trim | Reds, 8 to 1. | BOSTON, August 17 (#).—Boston, scoring all its runs in the second tn- | ning, took the last game of the series | from Cincinnati, 6-1, today.
