With both teams striving for their first touchdown in the high school series, Roosevelt and Western were to square off today at 3:15 o'clock at Roosevelt Stadium in a game which was to decide last place in the scho- lastic standings. The Rough Riders looked to the passing of Francis Beamer and the receiving of Spiro Kolius for victory, while the Red Raiders were depending on Morris Snead and Bob Saum, backs, to provide the winning margin.

By the Assoclated Press. T. LOUIS, November 19.— Kingfish Levinsky and Ray Steele, leaders of opposing sehools of ring tactics, will tangle here tonight in a mixed mauling match to determine whether boxer or wrestler is su- preme. Levinsky, the Chicago fish ped- dler who “puts lumps under their lamps,” will expound the thesis that a roundhouse punch, well thrown, is the most potent form of ring conduct. “Why, listen,” the Kingfish de- member of the District’s Boxing Com- mission’s staff of judges. clared. “I've watched these wres- tlers. Whenever they get hit they want to jump out of the ring. When a hard hitter like me con- nects with just one punch they'll go flying out.” Steele, on the contrary, is known to profess the belief that an op- ponent thrown into the audience is more likely to stay there than one knocked over the ropes. His followers predict he will tie the King into a pretzel within five rounds. The bout, to be conducted under & special set of rules drawn up by Dr. O. U.

KAMM ROW COST EVANS J0B, BELIEF Tribe General Manager, Out After Rejecting Pay Cut, Opposed Johnson. By the Associated Press. LEVELAND, November 19.— Alva. Bradley, wealthy real estate operator, prepared to- day to assume more active direction of the Cleveland Indians base ball club, assisted by Cyril C. Slapnicka, chief of the Indians’ scout- ing staff for 14 years, ‘While Billy Evans, general manager, who resigned yesterday after declin- ing to accept a salary cut, said he had no offers from other clubs at present, base ball followers believed he would not be long without a job. Evans planned to go to Dayton to- day for the minor league meeting. Slapnicka, who was given the title of assistant to President Bradley, also will be there, Evans Has No Plans, VANS, who came to the Indians after 22 years as an American League umpire, and who earned a reputation for astute buying and trad- ing of players, said “I have no plans, but lady luck has been good to me for 52 years and I don't think she's going to desert me now.” | B He resigned after rejecting a con- tract for a lower salary than the $12500 he earned last year. For three years before the end of the 1933 season he had been paid $30,000 a year. Some base ball observers traced the resignation to a controversy over the suspension of Third Baseman Willie | Kamm last Summer. Evans tried to| persuade Manager Walter Johnson from taking the step. Club Financial Leoser, Is Claim. BRADLEY told Evans recently the club had suffered heavy losses between gate receipts and disburse- | ments and said the directors felt they no longer could pay Evans a large salary. Evans contended the value of the team through the building up of its; personnel had been greatly increased.

Declaring the straightaway of the Mount Vernon Boulevard more in keeping with the regular Olympic course, Hursey added that the race could then be held, It was rain that canceled scheduled last Sunday's | sweepstakes and forced many contest- ants to return home. Hursey says that a race down to; Mount Vernon and back twice would equal the 62!, miles—the required distance. Most of the other riders likewise prefer a road race, it is said. A meeting was to be called today by Winfree Johnson, recreation di- rector of the National Capital Parks Committee, to determine the feasibility of changing the race’s locale. If the change is made it was suggested that other scheduled evenis could take place while the 62',-mile marathon is in progress. .

C hopes to mar the Marylanders’ unde- feated record tomorrow night when the teams clash on the same field. The only team to score on the Maryland A. C. this year, dropping a | 13-6 decision a few weeks ago, Palace has added a real scoring threat in Snail De Labre, smashing fullback. ‘Willis Benner, Dick Nelson and Nor- | wood Sothoron, all former University of Maryland stars, and Frafk Cum- berland, formerly of Western Mary- land, will start at the backfield posts for the Maryland A. C. FANS SKEPTICAL ABOUT ELEY'S WIN Agree D. C. Boxer Shouldn’t Pursue Buffalo, Loser by Split Decision. HE Billy Eley-Gene Buffaio fistie feud was ended today, to all appearances, but despite the decision awarded Eley last night at the Lincoln Colonnade it ggn- erally was agreed by ringsiders that it might be a good policy for the unde- feated local colored boy to stay away | from Buffalo. As in their first meeting, which was called a draw, supporters of Buffalo were convinced that the Philadelphia welterweight received the worst of it from the judges. The crowd of 600 last night left the arena debating the 2-to-1 decision, which was rendered in Eley's favor by the referee and one of the judges. The fight was a bitter affair, with the boys continuing to punch after the bell on three different occasions. As in the main bout, there was plenty of action in the preliminary card. Tommy Mollis, lightweight from Baltimore, scored something of an up* | set by outpunching Baby Kid Choco= late in the eight-round semi-final. Tom Hutcherson, a featherweight from Philadelphia, debutted in a local ring by scoring a technical knockout |over Al Mathews in the third round of a scheduled six-rounder. In other bouts Sammy Williams outpointed Johnny Freeman and Jack Grant scored a two-round technical kaye | over Al Thompson.

Armstrong has held the title the past four years. Armstrong scored early in the first | quarter when Simms snagged a long | pass from Clarke and romped 25 | yards for a touchdown. Clarke smashed off tackle from the 2-yard line in the third period | for another touchdown, while Hamp- | ton ended scoring for the day when | he received a 25-yard pass from Clarke and raced over the goal line, OPPORTUNITY | —KNOCKS!- We, the Business Firms listed below, are co-operating to have you know the SPECIALIZED SERVICE we are capable of rendering.
