A—13 Scott and Rivers Promise Torrid Scrap in Ten-Rounder Tonight I G 768\ ‘ STYLES CONTRAST, BOTH ARE WILLING No Odds Offered Despite Two Cowboy Victories Over Mexican. BY BURTON HAWKINS. OWBOY HOWARD SCOTT, District lightweight cham- pion, will mix mittens with Joe Rivers, a sleek Mexican mauler, in a 10-round bout tonight at Turner'’s Arena that will fail to create an eruption in national cauli- flower circles regardless of the out- come, but which nevertheless seems to have aroused local ringworms. ‘With their contrasting styles ideally * suited to a matchmaker's dream, plus their willingness to keep swinging, Rivers and Scott should stage a hectic brawl. Rivers is hard-hitting, fast- moving and extremely anpoying to opposing fighters, while the lithe, trim Scott is a polished counter-puncher who is at his best when the battle is carried to him. Despite two previous trimmings he absorbed from the Cowboy. Senor Rivers probably will crawl through the ropes an even-money selection to dispose of the transplanted Texan. Bcott's recent loss to Chino Alvarez in Florida, and Rivers’ rapid ring rise of late have been instrumental in the refusal of the local gambling gentry to establish a favorite. Rivers Wants Revenge. Rm is seeking a measure of re- venge over Scott, who gained close-decision victories over his olive- skinned foe in Florida and Baltimore, while the local lightweight ruler de- sires to recover some of the prestige he lost in being knocked out in the tenth round of his last fight by Alvarez, Scott has been offered a return scrap with Alvarez at Promoter Mike Jacobs’ swanky Hippodrome on No- vember 5 and the modest puncher hopes to travel into the fistic spot- light through his efforts there. Rated fifth among the world’s lightweights, Scott will invade New York for the first time, hoping to prove popular and pave the way to more moneyed matches. Mexico Joe, however, is intent upon inheriting Scott’s high-rating position and his recent encounters in Balti- more would seem to warrant him a chance of doing s0. In his last seven arguments in the Monumental City, Rivers has won six, defeating such fighters as Danny London, Bucky Taylor, Nick Camaretta and Jimmy Tramberia, while losing to Scott. Card Well Rounded. IVERS is best remembered here for his dubious distinction in dropping two.decisions to Petey Sar- ron, now world featherweight cham- pion, and his knockout conquest of Mike Belloise several seasons ago at the now defunct American Legion Arena. Promising preliminaries will round out-the card, with Buddy Scott striv- ing-for his sixth straight victory when he stacks up against Jake Friedman, Baltimore light-heavyweight, in an outstanding six-round bout. Fried- man is & former South Atlantic 175- pound amateur champion, while Socott, brother of the Cowboy, once controlled the amateur light-heavy- weight situation in Oklahoma, Mis- souri and Kansas. Other six-rounders pit Joe Straiges, Camden, N. J., lightweight, against Ray Ingram, local larruper, and Bobby Dechter against Joey Temes in a bat- tle for the District’s featherweight bartender championship. Both boys mix ‘em for local restaurants. Cyclone Sammy Williams and Prince Albert, colored middleweights, will clash in the opening four-rounder &t 8:30 o'clock. . NEW KENTUCKY FOES oston College, South Carolina on 1937 Grid List. LEXINGTON, Ky., October 26 (#).— Two new teams—Boston College and the University of South Carolina— appear on the 1937 foot ball schedule of the University of Kentucky. ‘The schedule announced by Athletic Director Chet Wynne follows: October 2, open (to be filled); 9, Georgia Tech at Lexington; 16, Wash- ington and Lee at Lexington; 23, Man- hattan College at Lexington; 30, Ala- bama at Birmingham.

A three-year winning streak was -shattered as the Northwest Trojans blanked the Petworth Eagles, Capital City 150-pound champions last year, 8-0. Ostrow scored the touchdown. MANGUM'S SCORE TELLS. With Mangum pushing over & touckdown in the second quarter, the Regal Clothiers gained a 6-0 victory over the Germantown A. C. eleven yesterday. Say! How About This?

THE SPORTLIGHT Notre Dame’s Team One to Reckon With, Despite Loss to Pitt, Layden Contends. BY GRANTLAND RICE. ITTSBURGH has an excep- [:) tionally strong team,” Elmer Layden said after the game, “put Notre Dame is a lot better than she looked today.” Jock Sutherland agreed with Layden about Notre Dame. “We were well keyed up after that Duquesne setback, and the big question now is whether we can keep keyed up for Fordham Saturday. Any team that can beat Southern Methodist and St. Mary's and keep both from scoring a touch- down must have exceptional defensive strength.” No one could expect Layden to lose almost an entire first string from a year ago and stave off the type of attack that Piit’s Panthers sent into action. But it will be a better Notre Dame team from now on, in spife of a killing schedule that still includes Ohio State, Navy, Army, Northwestern and South- ern California. And it isn't likely to run against another such withering attack as the Panthers poured in Saturday. The Amazing Goldberg. 'HE main factor that led to Notre Dame's downfall was & young sophomore by the name of Marshall Goldberg from West Virginia. Gold- berg celebrated his 18th birthday yes- terday. It was not so much that he combined elusive speed with so much leg power, but that he kept on running all afternoon. Goldberg's durability, considering his age, was amazing. There were stretches when he carried the ball on two plays out of three, and on each occasion he put everything he had into every run, usually finishing with a twisting forward leap that added many yards. While so many others were forced to take out time or call for time in a hard, bruising game, Goldberg seemed to get fresher as the game moved along. He had strong help from Bob Larue and others, but it was Goldberg who softened up the Notre Dame defense and kept it groggy. There were many occasions when it took three or four South Bend tacklers to bring him down. “I don’t believe I ever saw any one who loved to play foot ball more than Goldberg does,” Jock Sutherland said after the game. “He is the first man on the field for practice and the last to leave. And he can play 60 minutes at top speed. It isn't often that you see a ball carrier with his speed and elusiveness who still has his drive.” It will be interesting to see how Fordham's iron defense can handle this young man, plus Larue and oth- ers, next Saturday in New York. The New Scene. THI downfall of Duke left L. 8. U, ‘Tulane and Auburn on top in the South. All three have been tied onge, but they remain unbeaten. This trio has packed in the more decisive vic- tories. Minnesota still holds her place at the top. Any team that can beat W ashington Sailboats Score Again Over Old Dominion Hosts ASHINGTON sailers again whipped their Virginia hosts yesterday afternoon when Judge P. E. Edring- ton, former United States jurist in “fhe Virgin Islands, safled the sloop Jady Avon fo victory in a race for $he Old Dominion Boat Club Trophy. ‘The race was the third annual re- gatts of the Old Dominion Boat Club “of Alexandria and it drew sailboat men from the Capital, Corinthian and Columbia Yacht Clubs. By winning yesterday’s race the Lady Avon repeated the victory she won last year when she captured the Old Dominion Trophy under com- mand of Verner Smythe. In yester- day’s race Smythe skippered the sloop Bassy to win the comet class trophy. ‘The Old Dominion Boat Club's re- gatta yesterday was safled in four Classes. The Lady Avon won the 20- foot open class. Other winners be- sides the Flying Lady and the Sassy were: Zephyr, skippered by Jack Marsh in the class A handicap, and by J. W. Maloney class. C. E. Brush, R. E. Winslow, R. P. Du Mont and A. Bird. ~ ‘ The Old Dominion Boat Club's committee included R. A. Lambert, Ralph Youngs and H. C. Bush. Mr. Bush presented the trophies to the winners in each class at the end of the races. Summaries of yesterday’s races: 20-Feot Open Class. P eints ‘oungs J. C #. Busn Comet Class. Boat. g & 5 Falcon Cricket II 27> gom> Lawrence Rdpiper T.De 1 Class Sl Washington, Nebraska and Purdue be- fore October ends must be given the call until defeated. And the last chance for this episode will develop Saturday at Evanston against North- western. Marquette moves up to a high place in the Midwestern scene. While Ford- ham, Army, Yale and Holy Cross re- main uhbeaten in the East, Pitt and Princeton must be rated among the leaders and so must Pennsylvania— from now on. From this group, Army and Holy Cross have the safer outlook through the next five weeks, although neither is out of the woods. The nerve strain that was to affect Minnesota after 20 con- secutive wins failed to show up against Purdue. ‘The power and pressure that Minne- sota put on through the first two periods brought its reward in the last half. Northwestern was picked as the Gophers’ main opponent from the Middle West, and Northwestern on Saturday will be playing at home. Against this, you must figure that Minnesota, for three years, has been the type of team that gets better and better as the season advances, and, with number 22 in sight, there has been no sign of any cracking yet. Purdue will tell you that, if any lingering doubt remains. The Rose Bowl Lists. WASHINGTON still is the stand- out on the Pacific Coast, with Southern California and Washington State her two main bunkers. Louis- iana State must face both Auburn and ‘Tulane, not overlooking Mississippi State and others, and if the Bayou Brigade can cut its way through this opposition, there will be little question about her place in the Southern sun. Fordham, Holy Cross and Pittsburgh are the main Rose Bowl candidates from the East, as neither Yale, nor Army, if unbeaten, is available. Marquette leads the Middle West, as Conference teams are not allowed any Pasadena trips, Nebraska is another entry with one of foot ball's strongest teams, headed by two brilliant backs in Francis and Cardwell. Pittsburgh still has Fordham, Nebraska and Carnegie Tech in her way, and if the Panther can charge through this group he will be one of the strongest en- tries. Single defeats are considered no bar where hard schedules are played. So, outside of the Pacific Coast, we have L. 8. U, Tulane, Auburn, Fordham, Holy Cross, Pittsburgh, Marquette and Nebraska to consider for New Year’s day at Pasadena, New Orleans and Miami.

Special Dispatch to The Star. NNAPOLIS, October 26.—Navy people generally regard a victory over Pennsylvania at Philadelphia next Saturday as essential after de- feats on successive Saturdays by Yale and Princeton and will start tomor- row to prepare definitely for that contest. However, the losses to two of the “Big Four” of Eastern foot ball were not such as to discourage the team in sny way or weaken the confidence of its friends. In both games the Navy team had s big edge on both running and passing yardage and dis- played splendid offensive power and versatility. Penn all along has been regarded 85 one of the Navy's hardest op- ponents this season, a view which was strengthened by its victory over Princeton, so that a victory would be vastly encouraging to the Navy team. The restored physical -condition of Frank Case, Frank Lynch and Irwin Fike has strengthened the manpower of the team. Lynch will take his turn with Ferrars at left tackle and Fike and Heber play st end, while Case ‘generally will be in his old po- - | sition as signal caller. Such reserve backs as Pay Wilsle, Bill Mason, Lem Cooke and Art rnnh..uolvhnflhldmph!- ing against Princeton, are improving greatly and are likely the Penn and following AMERIGAN RIDERS SCORE DECISIVELY Record Crowd Sees Victory Over Chile and Mexico in Jumping Event. BY ROBERT B. PHILLIPS, Jr. EFORE the largest horse show crowd in the history of this extremely horsey sector, the officers of the United States Army established their superiority over the horsemen of two other nations yes- terday afternoon, winning the inter- national team jumping event of the Inter-American exhibition by & clean and broad margin. As the military team event and the highly successful four-day meeting drew simultane- ously to & close the North Americans had 6114 faults charged against them, the invaders from Chile were in sec- ond place with a record of 78 faults and the Mexicans had 99. For the winners the victory was by way of revenge for an overwhelming trouncing the Chileans handed them last year when the first Inter-Ameri- can was contested. Entering the third day with a lead of 8 points the lads who ride for this country in Olympic and other international contests held their good form throughout the toughest test yet put to the three teams here. With the 6,500 specta- tors tense and wildly appreciative in turn, Maj. Tupper Cole and his col- leagues clung grimly to the lead that one bad mistake might have de- stroyed. The Chileans actually were in much worse form than in any pre- vious round, missing the presence of their great jumper, Xysme, elimi- nated by an accident, and facing a course that they simply would not regard with due caution. They came racing down to the big barriers, and three of their four horses conse- quently plowed through all three fences of a 4-foot 6-inch double in- and-out, which was one of the chief hazards of the third-day course. The chances of getting through a huge -and-out at top speed are practi- cally nil, and the Chileans confirmed that fact to their grief. Mexicans Finish Strong. ‘HE Mexicans, on the other hand, were going better than ever be- fore, and they wound up with a Sunday score only one fault weaker than that of the United States. Past records, however, precluded the possibility of their climbing out of the cellar spot. The greatest individual performance of the day was theirs, nevertheless, when Capt. Armando Villareal, the team commander, took Azteca over the 16 big obstacles without a mis- take, the only score against him be- ing a time fault of one-quarter point. That feat, truly magnificent in view of the fact several of the fences were 5 feet and made in no pleasant way, set the crowd in a frenzy, and the slender Mexican officer was made to understand by the international language of the paddy-whack that he Wwas quite a hero. D. C. Wins Interstate Test. IN THE interstate team jumping test, & minor league affair de- signed to keep the local partisans on edge, the District of Columbia turned up & surprise winner over the pas- toral States of Maryland and Vir- ginia, having little difficulty in dis- posing of Maryland by the count of 60%; faults to 86!, while two Virginia horses were eliminated in the third heat of this competition, leaving the Old Dominion squad with a score dis- tinctly resembling a telephone number. Earlier in the day the hunters put on their part of the show, the gray hunt team from Mrs. John Hay Whit- ney’s Llangollen Stables again win- ning that event, while the working hunter blue was captured by Capt. Bernard Luebbermann on Billy. It was then time’to hand out all the grand champion ribbons and tro- phies, which were distributed to the Whitney horses, Gray Knight and Spring Hope, in the hunter division, and to Fenton Fadeley’s Lacquer Lady and the United States horse show team's Podhorski in the open jump- ing. The United States Army's Renzo was also given a trophy and ribbon as the outstanding horse on the international teams, Renzo hav- ing made only 122 faults in three days of active duty.

BY the Assoctated Press. CHICAGO. October 26. — Kingfish Levinsky, the Maxwell street mauler, may never again fight in Ii- linois. It was learned today that the Illi- nois Athletic Commission last week | | turned down an application, submitted | by Nate Lewis, former matchmaker at the Chicago Stadium, to present a 10- round bout between Levinsky and Max | Marek at the International Amphi- theater here. Levinsky and his traia- er, Walter Ekwert, have left Chicago | for a series of matches in California. Although the commission made no official announcement, it was under- stood the board’s refusal to grant the permit was a result of his showing at Comiskey Park August 7, 1935, when he was stopped by Joe Louis after two minutes of the first round. A crowd of 39,775 paid to see the “fight” and “the King"” received $30,000 as his end | of the $214,442 gate. It was estimated Levinsky, once a fish peddler in the Chicago Ghetto, earned more than a quarter of a mil- lion dollars in eight years of cam- paigning. Barker (Continued from Page A-12.)

JANBARK ¢ and BY ROBERT B. PHILLIPS, Jr. for bigger things around gest gate in local history at its close b\ TURE 22 IR ORSE show biz, of which Va- H riety never heard, is headed Washington. The Inter- American Horse Show took the big- ing session yesterday, and when Maj. Frank Whittaker asked the crowd pean riders mix in the fracas next year, he was answered with cheers and whoops such as are usually re- served for somebody who is giving something away, free and for nothing. Which the Inter-American is not, although its tariffs are reasonable as the customary rates run around here, and bargains, considering what the cash customer gets for his money. I have been arguing for years that the chief weakness of Virginia, Maryland and Washington shows as a breed was that the management worried too much about who was going to sell what horse to whom, and not enough about the uninitiated customer who paid his money at the gate and, hav- ing heard the sport called a horse show, actually expected to see a show. More often than not he saw some- thing that strangely resembled a small American, on the other hand, is run with an eye to showmanship that would do credit to Phineas T. Barnum, who knew what the citizens liked. FLAGS, ceremonies, martial music, & general air of pomp and circum- stance, lend a necessary dignity and "ASHINGTON'S bowllug fra- ternity began to draw fine lines today over the relative pin-busting ability of Astor Clarke and Meyer Jacobson as George L. Isemann, N. D, B. C. secretary, busied himself completing final ar- rangements for the’ 20-game inter- | city match between the Clarendon' and Baltimore wizards of the maple- ways. ‘The first 10 games will be rolled at Convention Hall Saturday, Charlie Bell, hall manager, said today, after finding that due to several leagues postponing for Halloween he would be able to accommodate & large crowd. THE final 10-game block will be shot Sunday at the Recreation Center in Baltimore, The series will be split into five-game blocks. The first ill be rolled at 2: p.m. and the second five strings at 8 o'clock. Total pins for the 20 games will decide the winner. No sooner had this match been aired when Tony Santini, another of Washington's redoubtable special match rollers, put in a bid to shoot it out with the winner. It is under- stood that Ollie Pacini, at present the high-average pinman of the Dis- trict League, is anxious for a crack 8t either Clarke or Jacobson. On the surface it appears that the Clarke-Jacobson * clash will be the forerunner of many all-star matches | here this Winter between the Cap- ital's experts and those of the South and North.

The same is true of ten- nis, which was something to watch between sips of tea at a country club, until Big Bill Tilden and some other spectacular figures put the thing over in an exciting way. Maj. Whittaker took up the Inter- American where his predecessor, Col. Charles Scott, left off, and made the second edition a far bigger and far better one. He has still some work to do in developing the hunter angle of the meet as a real sporting com- petition, but the international side and the very smart interstate team rivalry which he invented are obviously des- tined to go places. If for no other reason, because the fascination of the horrible is irresistible, and the big, tough courses produce spills that are nothing short of gruesome, For- tunately no one was badly hurt in them this year, and I trust never will be, but the crowd had something to talk about when it left Meadow- brook. THERE probably is no employment on earth easier than standing on the ground and telling somebody else how a certain horse should have been ridden in a certain class, and because it is so easy the temptation is not to be resisted. Therefore I repeat that the Chilean Army riders were prone to ride too fast at the big jumps in the team class, and there- fore jinxed their own chances. Nat- urally, it was a pleasure to see the United States redeem itself and turn up on top this year, but it is no sure bet that the North American horses were better than those that came with the Chileans. In Toqui, Salitrers, Chilena and Xysme they have some real jumping horses—horses that were perhaps not allowed the best possi- ble chance to show their wares. At least, it will be hard to find any one who will argue that it is possible to get through a huge double in-and-out at the pace asked of Chilena, Tonada and Salitrera yesterday afternoon. ‘Well, on-such differences do horse League after two matches . . .
