—12 * STARBONERS FIL | BENEFIT PROGRAM Sparkling Bouts Arranged; for September 30 Card to Aid Boys’ Clubs. BY JOHN B. KELLER. ON'T be alarmed if halted on the street by one of Wash- | ington's finest these days. | But be prepared to shell out | a piece of change. For John Law | will be there to sell you a ticket to| the Capital's greatest boxing show of the year—the show for the bene- fit of the Metropolitan Police Boys Clubs to be held at Griffith Stadium the last day of this month. There will be eight bouts, with \ heavies, welters, lightweights and junior lightweights from pro ranks end a pair of midget amateurs provid- ing the entertainment. Three of the pro battles will be cofeatures over 10-round routes. The card will include Petey Sarron, Buck Everett and Bob Godwin, boxerx of national ranking. Phil Furr, Sid Silas and Joe Rivers, fighters highly rated throughout the South, will fling fists. Supplementing this impressive lot will be a band of first-grade sec~ tional talent. It is easily the brightest, most prom- ising pugilistic program put together | this year for Washington's fight fol- lowers. Sarron, Rivers Clash Again. NE of the trio of cofeatures will bring into action Sarron and Rivers, two of the fightin'est pieces of ring machinery ever to show here. It will be the third meeting for these | boys. Sarron has twice nosed out | Rivers, although many still are con- | vinced that the latter deserved the | decisions. Their third bout originally was | slated for 15 rounds for the District | featherweight title. Petey, however, | shied at the distance, and as Joe could not make the feather limit the route was reduced to 10. This time the boys will fight as junior lightweights, to scale at 129 pounds at 2 p.m. the day of their battle, with forfeits up for weight | Another of the cofeatures will be a heavyweight affair with Buck Everett SOCIETY. and Bob Godwin swapping punches. | Joe Knight first was matched with | Everett, but decided to step out of the | picture after a tough scrap with Buck | at Miami Beach recently. | Godwin asked for the crack at| Everett and was snapped up. These two will go into battle weighing 180 pounds. Bout to Settle Grudge. URR and Silas will be out to settle a grudge in still another co- feature.

Silas, entirely recovered from muscle ailments caused by dis- eased teeth, which since have been extracted, wants revenge for the beat- ing he took from Furr some time ago | and believes he will get it. Sid bases his contention on the fact | that he defeated Tony Rock, the Scranton slugger, who won from Phil | with plenty to spare at the ball yard this Summer. Two six-rounders are on the pro-\ gram. In one, Joe Green will return ! to the ring against Leroy Dougan. The last bout between these two resulted | in a decision for Green when Dugan was penalized for fouling. The bout brought about Leroy's suspension, but the ban was lifted when the fighter sought a spot on the police show card and promised to behave himself. Ray Ingram and Billy Bullock, lead- ing District lightweights. will clash in the other six-heat affair. They have been after one another nearly 8 year. Service Men to Battle. 'OUR-ROUNDERS will have Jimmy Fitzsimmons facing Joe Dobson and Wild Bill Howell tackling Baby Face Untz. The Fitzsimmons-Dobson scrap will be a rematch. Both are | members of the Fleet Marine Corps Reserve and Dobson bested Fitz- | F simmons in a bout at Quantico re- cently. Untz, stationed at Quantico, will encounter a fighter of his own | slugging type in Howell. Untz now is at Camp Perry, Ohio, | ‘with the Marine Corps rifle team. | By special sanction of the A. A. U., amateurs will meet in a three-round bout planned as a demonstration of part of the athletic training given by the various boys' clubs. Eddie Arnold of the Fifth Precinct Police Boys’ Club will box Terrell Roberts of the Merrick Boys' Club. In the recent Silver Gloves tourney these 70-pound- ers gave a splendid exhibition, with | Arnold getting a split decision. Tickets for the show will range in price from $1 for general admission | to $3.50 top. Your neighborhood po- liceman will tell you how to procure the pasteboards. — — | DODGERS RECALL THREE.

August 31.—Tom Baker, Brooklyn's 20 - year-old right-| | hander from Grand Prairie, Tex., won his first major league game today as the Dodgers beat the Braves, 5 to 2. Baker neither started nor finished the contest, but shut out the tail- enders through most of it. George Earnshaw, who opened for the Dodgers, suffered a broken little finger on his right hand when he knocked down Les Mallon’s liner in the second inning. Baker relicved him and hurled until the ninth, when he loaded the bases with none out and Emil Leonard was called in to snuff out the rally. Earnshaw may not be able to pitch again this season.

It will be the final appearance of the season for. Boston. For all of his hard luck, Newsom goes'into the game heartened by the | knowledge that Manager Bucky Har- ris, at least, thinks he's worth the 40,000 smackers which the Washing- ton Club passed over to the Browns last May. ‘Though successfully hiding the natural iimp and stiffness from the fans, Newsom still is painfully bothered by his left knee-cap, which was frac- tured earlier in the season by & line drive. His inability to follow through on his delivery with the full force of his 195 pounds has handicapped the big fellow considerably. The Boston pitching is due to be | provided by Lefty Grove, but Manager | Joe Cronin may save the great south- paw for the Labor day double-header with the Nationals in Boston tomor- Tow. Shortly after today's game, the Griffs and Red Sox will board a train for Boston for tomorrow’s holiday doubleheader. The Nationals then will idle until Wednesday, when the St. Louis Browns invade Washington for a four-game series. Following the Browns will come the Tigers, 1ndians, White Sox, Athletics and Yankees for series which will wind up the American League cam- ' paign at home. Sox Southpaw Rivals Newsom. N FRITZ OSTERMUELLER, south- paw pitcher of the Red Sox, New- som has a real 1ival for the 1935‘ hard-luck championship. Early in the season Oslermueller was struck in the face by a liner off | Hank Greenberg's bat. The blow broke his cheek bone and put him on the | sidelines for several weeks. Then he | came back and, while pitching in| | batting practice, Fritz was struck on | | the leg by a ball driven back at him | by Dib Williams and again he was laid up. During the recenj Western swing by the Red Sox a lner by Julius Solters of St. Louis broke the fibula bone in Ostermueller’s leg, although he didn’t know it at the time. The accident happened in the first inning, | but Ostermueller pitched the route, won by a 5-to-2 score, and allowed only five hits. Since the injury Fritz pitched nnd» | lost a 4-to-1 game against the Tigers | and then beat the Indians, 5 to 4, giv- ing up seven hits. The other day he warmed up for a game against the Athletics and his leg began to pain him so much that X-rays were taken and the extent of the injury became known. Now he's out for the season.

The top spot of the program will be given over to Kirk Burk (once known to the boxing gentry as Kirkwood Burke) and Joe Lipps and these heav- ies promise to give Capital ringworms | something of a treat.
