FLASHY HEAVIES BATILE TONEGHT Bout Is Feature of Card| Including Borre-Temes Feather Clash. L DELANEY, a 20-year-old A heavyweight with a fair-to- middlin’ wallop, has a chance tonight to check the comeback ambitions of Bob Godwin, ex-light heavy ruler and one-time prime fa- vorite of Washington boxing followers. In the feature of Promoter Joe Turner’s weekly ring festival at the new Fourteenth and W streets arena | the rivals will square off in a bout listed for eight rounds. The reason advanced for the limited number of rounds was that Delaney, still a minor, has been used only to fighting in six- rounders as prescribed by New York laws, Godwin, on the strength of his| ™ greater experience, was installed a| favorite today, but disturbing reports concerning Delaney’s punch continued to drift into the Herald Harbor boy's camp. Little is known otherwise of Delaney except that he was kayoed by Joe Louis in four heats and was beaten by Buddy Baer, although he put the biggest -of the Baers on the canvas for a count of nine. Godwin Sometimes Careless. ODWIN, who has rested since the victory he scored over Buck Ever- ett here last Summer, seemed to be in perfect shape for the test against Delaney, who formerly boxed as Otto Borchuk and who was announced as a substitute for Terry Mitchell only last Saturday. Once one of the busiest scrappers in the business, the comparatively young Godwin, paying the penalty of too much work and not | enough rest, now takes his boxing in smaller doses. If Delaney's punch is what it is cracked up to be by press agent notices, Godwin may be in for & jolt. Bob never has been a particularly | rugged: fighter and despite his boxing | ability, which is considerable at times, he has been known to be careless enough to leave open a shot at his chin. He did that against Everett, | with the result that he hit the canvas in the last round and almost lost the | fight. If Godwin should duplicate that stunt, the transplanted Georgian's swan song in this hamlet might well be| sung. Bob has ambitions of re-estab- lishing himself as a drawing card here us he did back in the days of bootleg boxing in Alexandria, but Delaney, young and apparently just hitting the upgrade, easily could supplant Robert by scoring an upset.- Temes Meets Borre. 'A PRELIMINARY card, featuring an eight-rounder between Ray Borre of Florida, and Joe Temes, Greek featherweight, will precede the main event and get under way at 8:30 o'clock. or thereabout. - - Borre is a newcomer to the Capital, but he is highly touted and picked by smany to whip Temes. If so, Promoter Turner may find another potential -drawing card- on his list, inasmuch as Temes ranks fairly high here ever | &inee he-upset Roger Bernard. In a six-rounder, Bob Lowry, local middleweight, will return to the ring | after a year's absence to meet Mike Scipio of Baltimore. Lowry's jaw was broken ‘last Winter and he has not Tought since. A’ pair of four-rounders will com- plete the card. They will bring to- gether -Charley Rondo of Baltimore and Tony Livingstoa of the Quantico Marines, and Stanford Carrier of ‘Washington, and Joe Stbley of Balti- more. Rondo and Livington are mid- dleweights and the others battle in the ‘welter division. I Catholic Ladies I CATHOLIC LADIES, Team Standing. Holy Comforter “C” ) It b bt SRR Dot ancis Xavier. 04-24.

A boom, Goldie slyly observes, that will dwarf in size and enthusiasm that recently enjoyed in Baltimore and other nearby points. “I'm tellin' you,” Goldie chirps, “every manager who claims to be a manager wants to bring his fighters in here. I'm swamped every morning with mail from managers of good fighters who have heard of cur set-up and want to gamble with us. “They know we've a small club but they know the work's steady and the pay gogd. If Joe Turner and myself don’t go to town on this chance it's because we're at fault, and not the Al Roth, Moon Mullins, Harry Se- rody, Eddie Mader, Harry Dublinsky, Lew Feldman, Joe Knight and Bob Godwin are a few of the top-notchers who have contacted Ahearn anent bookings locally. 5 IDINGS are broadcast from the New York booking offices regard- ing the mewly gained popularity of Ray Steele, veteran heavyweight rass ling standout, as & box office attrac- tion. “Ever since Ray chucked Kingfish Levinsky in only 35 seconds of their mixed match,” the authoritative Leon Balkin explains, “he’s re-established himself as & big draw. “Ray always was & great wrestler and grand showman, but it required a match like this to wake lots of us up to the fact. Now everybody wants to book Steele. Which is fair enough with us.” Ray, incidentally, probably will re- turn to Washington shortly, after an ebsence of two years. RANKIE BLAIR, crowd-pleasing Camden, N. J., welterweight who has slugged himself out a brace of decisions over Phil Furr and turned back, among others, such boys as Roy Manley, Cary Wright and all others engaged, here has gone under the man- agement of & Philadelphia skipper, Phil Glassman. Glassman is the man who steered Lew Tendler to lightweight fame and fortune years ago and who now is bringing Harry Serody along in fine fashion. ‘Washingtonians who thrilled to Sid Silas’ game, though losing stand, be- fore Phil Furr recently believe a Blair-Silas shot would go good in a semi-final spot here. And would | qualify the winner for bigger and bet- ter things. NSPIRED by the gates polled by the mountainous and bewhiskered Man Mountain Dean, old Serge Kal- mikoff, bewhiskered Russian recently SIDE from the tremendous vol- ume of work the Bureau of Fisheries is doing to maintain the commercial fisheries of the country, anglers will be interested to know that-in 1936 the propagation of strictly game species of fish by the bureau numbered 114,571,550 - Swep- son Earle, former commissioner of the Conservation. Department of Mary- land and now liaison officer of the Bureau of Fisheries, so informed his radio audience last Friday when guest speaker for Rod and Stream. Earle remarked that his new posi- tion reminded him of Columbus, who, it is said, set sail on the voyage that finally landed hi min America. He did not know where he was going, when he arrived he did not know where he was and when he got back he did not know where he had been. Since last July, as liaison officer of the Bureau of Fisheries, Earle said he bad traveled 12,000 miles in 24 States. “Pollution of the public waters is one of the most serious and difficult problems facing the conservationist today,” Earle broadcast. “Aside from the destruction of fish life, the elimi~ nation of such waters from the recre- ational resources of the community and the unsightliness of polluted streams, make this a matter of con- cern for all our citizens. “Of the thousands of tourists who motored over the country last Sum- mer, the majority of the thoughtful - | have returned to their homes with . |an awakened pride and interest in their country and a better under- " | standing of some of the great prob- lems confronting it. I am sure many of those who witnessed beautiful rivers and streams so badly polluted as to be a menace to fish life, as well as the humans who resort to them for pleasure, will begin to wonder why such conditions come about and how they can be eliminated. Due to the fact, however, that the manufactur- ing plants, which usually cause the pollution, have been established for many years and provide employment | for thousands, the handling of the question is often very difficult.” ANGLER-E seem to be fickle as women are popularly supposed to be, the speaker pointed out, saying a would satisfy them. Today, the fash- jon seems to have changed, he said, and all fishermen suddenly have be- come bass minded. “At least that is the impression I have gained from my travels in 24 States, where the fish and game de- partments have been obliged to give serious throught to the propagation of bass in order to meet the increas- ing demand for this species of game fish,” Earle said. “As a result, hun- dreds of thousands of bass are being liberated in lakes, ponds and other suitable waters annually.” The Ohio § g g g i gagfia Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia and sald existing or- -ganizations -have been most helpful in the past and have stimulated a wider interest in conservation.

The old Serge is quite as freakish as the Man Mountain, boasts a far superior beard and is a better show- man in the . Incidentally, even the rasslers themselves are marveling at the man- ner in which the 318-pound Dean holds up at the box office.

Though making Baltimore his head- quarters this past Summer, the Mexi- can bearcat now has shifted his living quarters to Washington and hopes to do quite a little battling for the Ahearn-Turner partnership this Win- ter. Incidentally, Cowboy Howard Scott, = former knockout conqueror of Rivers and featherweight champion of Texas, bows into Washington under the man- agement of Gabe Menendez shortly. Scott is a genuine Westerner who is said to be capable of throwing either a punch or lariat with either hand and with equal potency. HOSTB of Catholic University en- thusiasts claim that Joe Turner will be overlooking a glit-edged bet if he permits Bill Lajousky, C. U.s great Herculean guard, to escape his atten- tion as & wrestling prospect. A 210-pounder who is hard ard sin- ewy and who possesses the strength of a horse, Lajousky’s feats of strength have amazed his pals time and again.

These reports may be true, but Mr. Hunter wants to locate the game. Where are they? Every one wants to know. . _ Some farmers say the birds are falling victims to the skunks at night when - roosting and others say the birds are finding their way to the pre- serves where shooting is forbidden. Whatever the reason, hunters are not getting their share of game. The| season 50 far has been exceedingly | poor. As for ducks, they are having per- haps their most successful season. Few hunters have molested them. Game Warden William F. Herbert of St. Marys County reports that the cm-} vasback and mallard ducks have ar- | rived in the head waters of the Wi- comico above Rock Point and along the marshes of the Lower Potomac and St. Marys Rivers and that these waters are filled with hundreds of common ducks. However, records at Leonardtown show only 13 duck- blind licenses to have been issued. | The hunter who has good dogs and | knows how to hunt well in the wood- lands and thickets may get plenty | birds and rabbits, Herbert reported. | But he must be willing to hunt them, | for he will not find them in cleared places. ACCOR.DING to George Knight, at Leonardtown, the large rockfish are furnishing excellent sport for the late anglers and some “monsters” are being caught. State’s Attorney John H. T. Briscoe, trolling from Ragged Point to Tall Timbers, landed five of these gamesters, averaging from 5 to for these gamesters, go prepared with Boat captains who have their share of success landing rockfish are Capt. mm Trott and Capt.

If you want to make a try for these gamesters go prepared with plenty of warm clothing. PPOINTMENT of a group of ex- perts to formulate a new public policy relating to game, fish and other wild life of the North American Con- tinent has been announced last week by Walter P. Chrysler, chairman of of trustees of the newly formed American Wild Life Institute. Two committees have been named and “Recognizing guidance,” Mr. Chrysler said, in an- nouncing the appointments, “nten of high standing and long experience in the application of technical knowledge to the solution of game, fish and other wild-life problems, have been selected. Their recommendations will form the basis for the new institute’s program.” Of the men named, five form a Technical Committee and 15 others a Wild-Liwe Restoration Planning Com- mittee.
