SPORTS. - Louis’ Punches Answer Baer’s Plans STOPS SPARRERS WHO TRY RUSHNG Flowers and Ruggiriello Are Punished Badly—Goes to See Tigers Today. BY EDWARD J. NEIL, Associated Press Spor’s Writer. POMPTON LAKES, N. J., Sep- tember 12.—In training camp at least, Joe Louis has proved that crowding him in a prize ring, which Max Baer plans to do in the Yankee Stadium September 24, gets you just about the same thing that backing away got Primo Car- nera and Kingfish Levinsky. Carnera lasted six rounds, mostly on a dead run; the Kingfish went less than one. A couple of sparring part- mners, Lou (Tiger) Flowers and Salva- tore Ruggiriello, could tell you today | that getting fresh, moving in to take the play away from the brown blast from Detroit, meant cutting their ac- tivities down to about 30 seconds. The experts have been lolling about the Louis camp sepculating on just one thing—what will the 21-year-old gable sphinx, short of only one thing, experience, do when a big, rough, bully fighter of Baer's type roars into him, slugging from both sides? Every- thing else they know of Louis—his terrific belting power with either hand, his cleverness, his eternal ag- gressiveness. Joe Makes 'Em Suffer. FI.DWERS and Ruggiriello are no Baers, but when the Tiger got fresh yesterday, tearing into Louis with both hands, Joe stretched him helpless and bleeding on the ropes with half a dozen surging smashes. Ruggiriello, once a great prospect and still a big, rangy right-hand puncher, nailed Joe with half a dozen solid rights, and took so many left hooks on the chin in the next few furious seconds that he had to quit. “I come back, fight two rounds next time,” He specified today, but perhaps he knew that Joe was going into New York to see his beloved Detroit Tigers open their series with the Yankees in the stadium. Louis, who is getting positively gabby as the shyness of his previous camp here leaves him, discussed charging fighters, particularly Baer, as he took time off from a pool game and gave up the funny papers he was trying to hold out against others Wwho wanted to read them. Warns Fiancee About Coins. 'A FEW minutes earlier, talking by long distance to his fiancee, Mar- va Trotter in Chicago, where the young lady is furnishing the home | they’ll have there after their marriage directly following the Baer fight, he announced like & long-term husband. “Don’t go spending too much money, honey. We ain’t got much yet.” Joe says the one fellow who really tried to rush right over him in a fcur-month professional career that has brought him 20 knockouts in 24 fights was Adolph Wiater, in Chicago, where he will make his home in the future. “He tried to crowd me,” he said. “He hit me one good lick. But paid no attention. I kept slipping punches, moving back in on him. Pretty soon I hit him a couple times. He didn't crowd me after that. guess Baer'll be about the same.” Louis’ managers, John Roxborough and Julian Black, are going down to the Boxing Commission soon to ask that the methods of handling the Judges’ and referee’s slips be changed for this match. They want the vote of the officials delivered to Chairman John J. Phelan after each round, to be totaled by him. Under the present system the offi- cials keep their round count and de- liver the complete verdict to the an- nouncer at the end of the match. —_— HOWARD OPENS GRID LIST WITH TWIN BILL Plays Two Games on October 5.

MAJOR feud of present-day wrestling will flare tonight in| Griffith Stadium when Danno O'Mahony and George Za- harias get together for their grapple- and-grunt act. And the Irish and the Greeks will be there in force to watch their boys settle the argument. With his claim to the heavyweight mat title of the world left untarnished after his victory over Don George at | Boston last night, the reigning mon- arch of the wrestling world is flying down from the Massachusetts capital today that he might get here in time to tackle the man who gave him the roughest experience he ever has had in a mat brawl. O'Mahony, the furloughed Irish soldier, is out to “get” Zaharias, the| tough Greek, and he does not mean | “maybe,” according to Jack McGrath, manager of Danno. It will be a! “grudge” match, says the pilot, with O’Mahony prepared to throw into the | battle as much of the nasty stuff as Zaharias may care to introduce. Zaharias Sees No Irish Here. “JT’S not often that O'Mahony goes to the mat with a personal griev-| ance,” says Manager McGrath, “but! in Washington it will be one of the| exceptions. O'Mahony took a great | physical beating from Zaharias their last time out mainly because he, Danno, was too inexperienced. That won't happen again.” | But Zaharias has heard of this| O’Mahony threat of violence. “Danno’s | okay when he's got 20,000 Irish back | of him in Boston,” mutters George the Greek. “And also an Irish referee. | But he won't be so hot in a neutral | ring.” | O’'Mahony had to go far last night in Boston when for the second time he scored over George. After the first match George complained that a “short” count had deprived him of victory. : Danno “Gets” George Early. ] AS AN alibi for the second defeat Don insisted that he was handi- capped by an arm injury suffered when he dived into a ring post. But | George, according to Associated Press report, had begun wilting long before the match ended after two hours and five seconds of grappling. Supporting numbers tonight will have Irish Jack Donovan tackling Emil Dusek, Dick Raines battling Mike Mazurki, Walter Underhill en- gaging Clff Olsen and Silent Abbott grappling with Barefoot Bill Evans. SCRIBES TO CAVORT ON KENWOOD LINKS Annual Press Club Tournament Is Sla ed September 23—Even | Kibitzers Can Enter.
