JADICK 1S SETUP: | TILT ONLY WALTZ Match Proves Irksome to D. C. Fans—Lone Good Go by Ingram, Bullock. BY BURTON HAWKINS. OHNNY JADICK was catalogued among the relics of the ring today by an irritated Washing- ton caulifiower colony that saw the two-time conqueror of Tony Can- woneri fade as rapidly as mah jong and monopoly in dropping & dull 10- round waltz contest to Jimmy Leto last night at Turner's Arena. One of the most-feared fighters in his division at one time and a former world junior welterweight champion, Jadick now definitely is through. The Jabs that once ripped and cut fighters into ribbons have lost their sting and his sharp weapons of several seasons back are but memories to those ring- worms who knew him when. Jadick now is attempting to fight a World War with bows and arrows. A mere shadow of his former self, the Ukranian lad is gaining matches on past performances and failing dis- mally in his effort to recover some measure of his buried effectiveness. Leto and Jadick merely climaxed & succession of sad spectacles, however, for the preliminaries, with the possible exception of the Ray Ingram-Billy Bullock argument, were equally as disappointing. Ahearn Relieves New York. F NEW YORK fans were clamoring for the Jadick-Leto bout, they owe ® vote of thanks to Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn for relieving them of a boring evening. Jadick had as much chance of trimming Leto as an outboard would have towing the Queen Mary across the Atlantic. The so-called fight did serve to {llustrate that any previous compli- mentary remarks concerning Leto's punching prowess must be altered. ‘That, he failed to knock out & washed- up Jadick, who offered little resistance, is a tip-off on his noggin-knocking ability. That Leto annexed every round is insignificant in view of the fact that the human punching bag he pum- meled at no time threatened to launch any part of a counter-attack. Jadick's reputation was his only tool and that failed to carve an impression on the 1,016 spectators who were stripped of $1,218. The inevitable result was forecast in the first round when the gangling Jadick walked into a left hook that sent him stumbling awkwardly into the ropes. Leto repeatedly annoyed Johnny with lefts to the face and finally half pushed and half jabbed Jadick to the floor for no count in the third round. Leto’s Job Easy. JT WAS s pitiful sight as Leto con- tinued to pour leather into a model T frame that still is trying to keep pace with modern mauling ma- chinery. It was the same story throughout, with Jadick & wide-open target for Jimmy's thrusts. Leto finally got around to putting Jadick on the floor in the eighth round when he connected with a left hook to Johnny’s jaw, but the Phila- delphia antique arose without taking a count. Jimmy peppered Jadick’s red- dened face with jabs in the ninth round and staggered him with a right to the head in the tenth before the bell mercifully interrupted the mild encounter. Ingram and Bullock were responsi- ble for the only scrap worth watching, with Ingram shading his vastly im- proved foe to win a six-round decision. Both fast, elusive targets, the light- weights maintained a rapid tempo, but failed to offset the lack’of competition in other bouts. Judge Charley Dunn | voted & draw, while Dr. O. U. Singer and Referee Eddie Lafond declared Ingram the winner, Mike Marshall, imported from Balti- more for the evening, was deported forever, we hope, although he con- trived to stick six rounds in losing to Hobo Williams, Alexandria middle- weight. Chester Ruby, Baltimore feather- weight, beat & tattoe on Al Dintamin’s right eye for three rounds and Dinta- min refused to answer the bell for the fourth, while Doug Swetnam, local lightweight, captured a four-round decision from Bob Anderson, amateur- ish Baltimore battler, in the opener. e C.

YRACUSE.—There are a lot of S things besides jarring tackles that can put foot ball players on the hospital list, and Fred Frey, Syracuse sophomore tackle, can add a new one to the list. Fred went pheasant hunting yester- day, stumbled while crossing a railroad embankment and accidentally fired his shotgun. Some of the shot ricocheted from a rail and struck his hand. He may not play against Maryland Saturday. COLLEGE PARK, Md.—The Mary- land roster can show one good reason why Syracuse is expecting a tough battle with the Terrapins Saturday. ‘Ten members of the squad of 21 that held Syracuse to a scoreless tie last November are slated to be in the start- ing line-up and two more will be on the bench.

His ex- planation was that the boys needed an extra day “to dry out.” DALLAS, Tex.—Southwest Confer- ence teams are noted for their pass- ing, but O’'Brien, Texas Christian quarter, sprang a new aerial wrinkle in the Tulsa game. He passed to himself for a 5-yard loss. The pass was blocked by a Tulsa player. The ball went high in the air and O'Brien caught it and ran several yards. before being downed. Clemson in Hard Luck.

To make it worse, the Tigers are scheduled to play South Carolina Thursdsy.

Richmond is leading Washington by but half a game, but that margin is due only to the fact that the Arrows have played one more game than the local aggregation. Both have lost & game, with Richmond having won three and Washington two.

North Carolina Avenue No. 2 leads the Methodist Protestant League by one game over the Cherrydale quint, having won 10 out of 12 starts. Team and individual records, however, are divided among four teams—Rupenthal of Mount Tabor's first team leading in averages with 115-2, besides having the most strikes and spares; Ross of Calvary having high game and set, 146 and 387; Rhode Island Avenue having high team game, 588, and Cherrydale high team set, 1,574, WALLY BURTON today held the Federal League all.time record for three games with a score of 460, and in the wake of this terrific pin- busting there trailed & flock of league high marks that made his big set even a more notable feat. He made it easy for the Government Printing Office team to chalk up an all-time lesgue mark for team set with 1892 and the season’s high team league game of 640. His per- formance against the champion Na- tional Capital Parks bowlers, who were fairly swept away by this avalanche of maples, was the best shot on District drives this season. Moreover, Burton's 460 is an all-time record set for the Arcadia alleys. It was just one spare after another as Burton riped off 'his consistenly big strings of 153, 157 and 150. In-all, he made 22 marks—20 spares and a double-header strike coming at the end of his second game. Joe McCarty, with 379, and Lee Brown, with 361, were also prominent in the record-smashing count of the G. P. O.s. Bureau of Investigation by being franked three games by Civil Service gained a firm grip on first place, while a second forfeit put Veterans’ Administration one game back of the front runners. Charlie Beall’s 377 was tops for Investigation. The Navy rollers tripped War De- partment twice with a 1,709 team count as Carroll Daly and Frank Ontrich tied for set honors with 352.

EW YORK, October 20.—The acquisition of Lonnie Warneke has helped but not solved the 8t. Louis Cardinals' pitching problem, Frankie Frisch, manager of the Cards, said today. “Getting Warneke doesn't tell me how Paul Dean will go next year,” Frisch said. “I don’t know what’s wrong with Paul now, but I think his trouble is in his mind. Maybe he's got too much money.” Ready to pack South on a fishing trip, Frankie was jovially pessimistic. “Sure I think Warneke will help us or I wouldn't have been in favor of the deal, but we still need more pitching.” Frisch referred to the trade that sent Pirst Baseman Jim (Ripper) Col- lins and Pitcher Leroy Parmelee to the Chicago Cubs for Warneke. He pointed out that both Warneke and Parmelee have been troubled by in- juries in the last year and are, theree fore, unknown quantities. Hurts Handicap Both. Am coming to the Cards from the Giants with Allyn Stout and Al Cuccinello, Parmelee started well last season, but injured a finger on his throwing hand and finished with 11 games won and 11 lost. ‘Warneke injured his arm in the 1935 world series, started slowly last season, but finished well, and had a record of 16 won and 13 lost for the season. Frisch said he also had some doubts about the ability of Johnny Mize, his young first baseman, who played in 126 games and batted .329 last season. “That boy's got plenty to learn,” he declared. “He has to find out what to do with his feet, he's too slow.” The injury which bothered Mize during the 1935 season has now dis- appeared, Frisch said. “I'm not satisfied with my second baseman either,” Frisch laughed. “He’s getting pretty old. But Il play a few games just the same.” Follows Colgate Eleven. FRXSCH has taken & sudden interest in the Colgate foot ball team, be- cause his nephew, Johnny Lucy of Rutherford, N.

Foot ball now is Just like base ball. Every one talks in terms of a few unbeaten teams, and when a foot ball team loses you'd think the season was a total loss. The Yankees had a pretty fair base ball team last season, didn’t they? They mopped up the American League and then whipped the Giants. But, for all that, they lost a batch of games to every team in the league. ‘They were not invincible from start to finish. “Well, as T said before, foot ball is getting that way. There are too many strong, evenly matched teams all over the map at this time. “Here and there you may get & Minnesota, but not often. This is only middle October—but just look at the list of the tied or beaten teams to- day—such as Pittsburgh, Princeton, Southern California, Washington, L. 8. U, T. C. U, Auburn, Tulane, Nebraska, Texas, Columbia, Georgia Tech, Navy, California, Ohio State, Indiana—on and on. Look at Notre Dame’s job from now on—Pittsburgh, Ohio State, Navy, Army, Northwest- ern and Southern California—who could be expected to clean up this parade? Schedules can make a big difference.” October Rases for the Bowl. IN SPITE of this the untied and un- beaten still get their share of at- tention until the ax finally falls. The wonder is that so many are left— Army, Yale, Holy Cross, Fordham and Duquesne in the East; Minnesota, Notre Dame, Purdue, Northwestern, Marquette and others in the Middle West; St. Mary's on the Coast; Texas A. & M. in the Southwest; Duke and North Carolina in the South. Just at this point Wallace Wade's young men from Duke have a good chance to inhale Pasadena's roses on New Year day. Duke’s program from now on includes Tennessee, W. & L., Wake Forest, North Carolina and North Carolina State. Her hardest test might easily be Bob Neyland’s Tennessee delegation, playing at home.

EW YORK, October 20.—Big Hank Greenberg, Detroit Ti- gers’ first baseman, sat in the office of a physician today, baking the arm he broke last April and reading about how another pretty good first baseman named Gehrig took his place as the most valuable player in the American League. “Last year I was on the top of the heap and now I have to worry about making the ball team,” Greenberg said. Put out of the game last April, when he broke the arm in a collision with Jake Powell at Washington, Greenberg claims the arm now is healed completely. “I could have played the last three weeks of the season, but we were out of the race then and the club officials thought I would be foolish to take any chances,” he said. Careless After Accident. examined twice a week. careless with it this Spring after the accident. We didn’t discover for 10 days that it was actually broken. We thought it was sprained. If it had been treated for a break from the first I would have been back in the game some time in August.” The big first baseman- said he an- ticipated no recurrence of the salary troubles he had with Detroit officials last Winter. “I think I had s real argument then. Detroit had two marvelous years in 1934 and 1935. We won the pennant both times, and I thought I was partly responsible for our suc- in 1935). The club made a lot of money and I figured I was entitled to a raise. “I was criticized for that, but I don't think the public realizes exactly what a ball player’s problem is. No Contract Worry. 'A MAN who makes $50 & week comes out to the ball park and he usually resents the fact that some of the players out there are making around $10,000 & season. He judges ball player’s job by his own.and you can’t do that. “For example, this broken arm might never have healed and I'd have been out of a job altogether. You can't tell what's going to happen, so you have to get the money while you can.” Greenberg said he would be willing to go to training next Spring on a conditional contract, if necessary. “I think I'm just as valuable now as I ever was, but the club officials don’t know whether my arm is com- pletely healed until they see me in Spring training. We can discuss sal- ary terms after that.” Greenberg will stay here until the end of the month and then go to Detroit. He may stay there all Winter and enter the sales promotion depart- ment of & large automobile manufac- turer, he said. “™ STILL baking it and having it | I was| cess (he batted .339 in 1934 and .328 | Alabama. A Neyland team always can supply trouble. Holy Cross has the best chance in the East, as Duquesne’s rise to power may be too sudden for Rose Bowl of- ficlals, Two of the main Holy Cross hurdles will be Carnegie Tech and Temple. Tough Row for Fordham. ‘O ONE can expect Fordham to duck by St. Mary's and Purdue. ‘We'll get part of the answer after Fordham and Marquette, where Slip's entry list will have to stop Ray Buviod, a passing terror. What about the Midwest? They'd rather have Notre Dame, but a killing schedule is against her, and she also meets Southern California at Los Angeles in December. One of the main Rose Bow! tangles will be naming the West Coast team from the Pacific Conference—which eliminaes St. Mary’s and Santa Clara. Most of them already have been beaten or tied. But Washington now has the call. A first-game defeat by Minnesota, decided largely on a re- covered fumble, is no sable blotch on any foot ball escutcheon—whatever an escutcheon might happen to be. Stan- ford and California already are out. ‘Washington beat U. C.L. A. The cor- rect answer might come when Wash- ington meets Southern California on November 14. This might be the deciding battle. Grand Tangle on Coast. ASHINGTON still faces Califor- nia, Oregon, Stanford, Southern California and Washington State, strong enough to stop the Howard Jones stampede at 0 to 0. Howard Jones might point to a rainy day and an early injury to Davis, his star back, but Washington State probably also can do some pointing. The best Rose Bowl guess, Just at this October tarn, with the bulk of the schedule still beyond, favors Duke and Wash- ington. By a strange coincidence, Wallace Wade's first invasion of the coast with | Alabama happened to be against Washington. That was the game Ala- bama won, 21 to 20, approximately, by a long pass to Johnny Mack Brown, now an actor in Hollywood. But just figure what can happen—suppose | Southern California stops Washington and U. C. L. A. beats Southern Cali- fornia? The West Coast round-up | can finish in more snarls and tangles than Geneva ever could untie. The West Coast was looking to Pittsburgh. Pitt still can return to the debate by trimming Notre Dame and Nebraska. But that Duquesne affair was quite a jolt. The West Coast yet might turn to Auburn, Tu- lane or L. 8. U. over Duke. Our ‘Western scout reports certain mur- murings against Duke's November schedule. And there still is Texas A. snd M. to be considered—with s whale of a schedule on ahead. The nominations are not closed yet by several jumps. There also will be a hot scrambie for the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans, where elaborate plans soon will be under way for a big New Year party. Not to forget the Orange Bowl at Misml. The bowl rush will pick up new speed from now on—but it will be dif- ficult for any of the bowls to bring together unbeaten and untied teams. That's one of the best gambles of the season. (Ccpyright. 1936, by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc.) GOLDEN GLO.VERS EAGER Point for Boxing Bouts to Start at C. U. November 10.

LEVELAND, October 20.—Carl Owen Hubbell, the lanky left- hander, who hails from Meeker, Okla., but does his pitching for the New York Giants, today brought New York s monopoly on base ball's “most valuable player” awards for 1936 to follow up the “subway” world series. Hubbell was unanimously chosen as the most valuable player in the Na- tional League. Lou Gehrig, iron man first baseman of the Yankees, was named the American League's most valuable performer last week. At the same time the southpaw “screw ball” ace, hailed during the season as the Giants’ “one man pitch- ing staff,” became the second player in National League history to win the award twice. In 1933, when the Giants also won the pennant largely because of Hubbell's flinging, “King Carl” was named as the most valu able player. Rogers Hornsby, now manager of the St. Louis Brewns, received the award, when it was made by the league, on two occasions. He was named in 1925 as a member of the St. Louis Cardinals and in 1929 with the Chicago Cubs. Has One Real Rival. ‘The 33-year-old Hubbell had only one serious rival in the voting by a committee representing the Base Ball ‘Writers' Association of America. That was Jerome Herman “Dizzy” Dean of the Cardinals, the only other pitcher ever to take the award. Hubbell was the unanimous first choice of the six writers who cast their votes, while Dean was named second five times and third once. Two members of the committee of eight made no selections. Counting on the basis of 10 points for a first-place vote, 9 for second, etc., Hubbell received 60 points and Dean 53. Third place in the voting went to Billy Herman of the Cubs with 37, fourth to Joe Medwick of the Cards with 30, fifth to Paul Waner of Pittsburgh with 29 and sixth to Mel Ott of the Giants with 28, Hartnett Gets 6 Votes.
