AHEARN MAY BUCK D. C. FISTIC BOARD Can’t See Ruling That Lou Isn’t Capable Foe for Ray in Police Show. BY BURTON HAWKINS. N UNSCHEDULED fight which which threatens to eclipse, or, perhaps. boost the police bene- fit boxing show's main event loomed today as Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn prepared to buck the District Boxing Commission and force a show- down on the muddled Lou Gevinson~ Ray Ingram situation. Gevinson and Ingram, local feather- weights, have been signed to fight one of four 10-round bouts on that card, but the local swat body has refused to sanction the argument—a direct con- tradiction of a statement made by that group less than three months ago. The commission, on February 18, went out of its way to say it would desire a fight between Ingram and Gevinson. This was after Gevinson had lost his only professional start to Johnny Pena. The boxing body at that time issued a written statement to all papers recommending Lou and Ray collide for the District featherweight title. What has happened since that time to disturb the commission's belief that the bout would be desirable is beyond the comprehension of Ahearn and Promoter Joe Turner. Ingram since has gone undefeated against crack opposition, while Gevinson has re- mained idle due to an injured hand and a case of sun poisoning received while vacationing in Florida. Four Fights to Be Featured. 'HE commission bases its ruling on the fact that the scrap is not of enough importance to warrant feature billing, yet the bout, while admittedly more attractive locally than the other three fights planned for the card, still 18 only one of four 10-rounders. What would prove the feature attraction, therefore, would depend totally on the customers. Another puzzling angle is the fact that the commission allowed the same thing to happen in 1935, with the result that the card drew the second largest gate of the year. On that occasion Buck Everett met Bob God- win, Sid Silas fought Phil Purr and Petey Sarron battled Joe Rivers, none of which then could hold the pro- verbial candle to the interest which has been worked up for a Gevinson- Ingram match. That card was promoted by the Metropolitan Police Boys' Club, with Maj. Harvey L. Miller, secretary of the District Boxing Commission, as matchmaker. It drew more than $16,- 000 and was regarded as one of the high lights of the season, being sur- passed from a financial standpoint only by the Tony Canzoneri-Frankie Klick debate. Meeting at ringside last night at ‘Turner’s Arena, Commissioner Ken- neth Parkinson and Maj. Ernest W. Brown, chairman, vetoed the bout. Claude Owen, the third member of the commission, was not present. He Did—He Didn’t. PARKlNSON said he informed Ahearn a month ago that he would refuse to sanction the bout, but the chubby matchmaker denied this, saying he had been allowed to proceed with negotiations without warning of the ultimate outcome. Parkinson, at whose request the recent investigation into alleged un- orthodox proceedings in the boxing game here was conducted, feels Gev- inson does not warrant a crack at Ingram, ranged eighth by the Na- tional Boxing Association, on his | record to date. The boxing fraternity, on the other hand, feels otherwise. Ingram has been defeated by Joey Temes, who, in turn, was trounced by Gevinson. Gev- inson, a southpaw, has a chilling punch in both hands, while Ingram is strictly a boxer and is rated Lou's superior at infighting. From the | standpoint of matchmaking, it rates | highly and is topped off by the fact | Both boys have large local followings. Matchmaker Ahearn, if he wins his point, will gain hundreds of dollars’ worth of publicity. At present, how- ever, his back is to the wall, for Perkinson emphatically stated today the veto would stand, thus leaving the police show, which was to have been PORTS. < Wherei Marty Gets Mussed Up GAU_AGHER’ TOW THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, MAY 11, The right to the head of William Martin Gallagher being administered here by Jorge Brescia, Argentine champ (right), is a fair sample of the bristling punching uncovered before a capacity crowd at Turner’s Arena last night as the latter won a unanimous 10-round decision. —Star Staff Photo.

RIVALRY REVIVED Marty’s Showing in Losing to Brescia Presages 4th Bout in Old Feud. NOTHER Marty Gallagher-Bob ‘Tow fight loomed on the local fistic horizon today, with Jorge Brescia, towering Argentine, providing the medium of matchmaking and arousing interest among cauli- flower customers. Impressive last night at Turner's Arena when he scored a decision vic- tory over Gallagher in a pleasing 10- rounder, Brescia now faces the pros- pect of meeting Tow in a 15-rounder, with the outcome adding verbal fuel to an unceasing argument over whether Marty or Bob is the best local heavyweight. The Gallagher-Tow feud is of ancient vintage, Marty holding the edge at present with two out of three triumphs. Gallagher did fairly well against Brescia and perhaps Tow will do equally as well or better. Anyway, you'll see Bob fighting Marty some- time this Summer. Both Are Punished. E ALTHOUGH he annoyed Jorge with left hooks to the head and a concentrated midsection attack, Marty received more punishment from Brescia's potent right hand. Gal- lagher’s courage proved his downfall, the Foggy Bottom favorite emerging from his shell to box with Brescla, who happened to know more about that phase of ring lore. Marty's right eye was ripped open in the first round with a well-directed butt, but he retaliated in the second session by planting his head on Jorge's left eye to open a gash. While he amazed spectators with a newly discovered viciousness, Marty was out- classed at long range by the swarthy invader. Two officials awarded the bout to Brescia by a margin of five. points, while the third gave Jorge a seven- point advantage. Prelims Are Pleasing. PRELIMINARIES, with the excep- tion of a dull semi-final, which found Murray Kanner, local heavy- weight, outshoving Joe Lipps of Geor- gia, were uniformly good. In scheduled six-rounders, Tiger Red Lewis knocked out Larry Marino, Baltimore, light-heavyweight, after 2 minutes and 30 seconds of the first round, and Mario Caroselli, Italian middleweight, defeated Hunter Crostic of Richmond. Four-rounders saw Mike Groves whip Jimmy Riddle in a strictly local lightweight argument, and George Abrams make his pro debut by chill- ing Johnny Stilso, Baltimore welter- weight, in 1 minute and 47 seconds of the second round. A capacity crowd of 1,820 paid $2,192 to absorb it. W.-L. HIGH NINE SPEEDY | Record Is 12 Won, 8 Lost, After Beating Tech, 13-9.

WANTFASTACTION | FOR THEIR MONEY Failure of U. S. in Olympic Endurance Races Due to No Encouragement. BY LAWSON ROBERTSON. ECAUSE our Olympic success never has reached the distance runs, we assume foreign run- ners, notably the superb Finns, have greater endurance. But lack of enthusiasm, not lack of endurance, hobbles America there. Reflecting business tempo, our crowds have a let's-get-it-over-with attitude. Dis- tance runs take too much time. Runners feel this. Had our crack milers “moved up” to longer races it might have been different. But you couldn’t give them any race above 2 mile—they didn’t want to leave the limelight. I find also an impression we are breeding supermilers, because Glenn Cunningham’s 4:06.7 in 1934 cut four » s seconds off Nur- : “#. mi's supposedly lasting 4:10%4 in ‘1923, But Cunning- ham, on Prince- . ton's magic carpet track. was only six seconds faste er than W. G. George, an Eng- lishman of the eighties! Consider the crisp cinders, rec- ord psychology, better training methods, newer knowledge of how to run the mile and not much is left to list as greater nat- ural speed in modern milers. George's 4:12% stood until Norman Tabor of Brown, later a Rhodes scholar, did 4:1235 in 1915, paced by handicap men. Then came Nurmi’s 4:1035 in 1923, the 4:09'5 by La Doumague, France, in 1929, the 4:07.6 by Love- lock, New Zealand, at Princeton in 1933 and Cunningham's 4:06.7. Kiviat Great Competitor. WAIT. you'll say; I've predicted John Woodruff, Pitt's 800-meter Olympic champion, could do the sup- posedly impossible four-minute mile. True. I figure he could spread his speed over the mile, just as our milers | could have *“moved up.” | But that's theory until John for- mally tries it. Who was the greatst miler? I'll discuss only men I've seen and studied. I coached Abel Kiviat at the Irish- | American A. C. A competitor who | won the national cross-country title, | he never cared about records but would run until his eyes fell out to win. He had only a 4:15 mile, yet he beat Tabor when they met. Joie Ray, who did 4:12 indoors and 4:14 on cinders, illustrates what I mean. Essentially a distance run- ner, he moved down to the popular mile and even 880. John Paul Jones, Cornell, was I C. A. A.

HE District Boxing Commission, composed of three highly in- telligent, honest and sports- manlike gentlemen, has en- tered the rather risky business of matchmaking, which is no fleld for intelligent, honest and sportsmanlike gentlemen. And they appear rather foolish in their new role. First, we have an investigation, which proved nothing and hardly could hope to, ordered by that body. Now after all these months they de- cide a local natural is not a local natural. Despite their honesty, the respective members of the commission are neophytes in the ring game and recent events illustrate that clearly. Nobody asked the commission to express its preference, but it recommended Lou Gevinson and Ray Ingram for a match any- WAY. Now the commission snubs its own suggestion. The only embryonic match this year which caused that body to issue a statement to all local papers requesting such a fight has been black- balled. Its love, it seems, has turned to ashes.

Archie San Romani, sas State Teachers' star, who won the Princeton Fall invitation from Lovelock and Cunningham, is, I re- peat, the world's greatest outdoor miler now.

Ingram-Gevinson Ban StartsWar : Track Fans Hurt Distance Game the recent mental maneuvering of the commission isn’'t exactly prolonging the life of the pudgy, jittery and ring- wise murderer of Webster’s approved pronunciations. Goldie definitely was on the insane side today as he bleated about the veto. “What'’s the next move, you ask, huh? How do I know what to do? Here’s a natural—de public wants to see Ingram and Gevinson—so dey turn it down. I like the commission, I respect 'em, but I've been in dis business 22 years and I know what I'm doing. “Dey okay pushovers for Kid Choc- olate and George Godfrey for other matchmakers, but I've kept my shirt clean and dey give me a deal like this. Dey ask me to make the match and then veto it when I make it. If dey don’t want me in here as match- maker, why don't dey say so? Woe Is Me—Con't. “J’'VE been kicked around plenty in | this game, but I've kept boxing | on the level here. If I didn't beef about this, I wouldn’t be worth a damn. You wanta know the next | move? Well, you tell me. I don't| know what to do. If dey won't okay | that, dey won't okay any of 'em. You | tell me what to do.” All right, Goldie, since you're asking for it, I'll tell you what I believe boxing fans would like to see you do. | T'd appeal to the commission in a | more sane manner than is your cus- tom. They're not too smart in so far as boxing and its angles are con- | cerned, but they're honest and will | listen to reason. Talk to them and | reason with them and you’ll win your point. Yell at them, antagonize them, and youll dig a grave for that Ingram-Gevinson bout. You have public opinion, I believe, on your side. And it's the public which pays the freight. You're giving | & good fight to the police card instead of saving it for Joe Turner and your- | self. Although you think you are, you're not persecuted. They've made an honest mistake and will rectify it if you go about it in the right manner. You're the only matchmaker here, you know, and the commission appar- ently is overzealous in seeing you don’t manage to capitalize on the lack of competition. They make mistakes and so do you, but it was their turn this time.

STEELE DETERMINED TO SILENCE CRITICS Would Make Battaglia, Subbing for Ailing Overlin, Suffer in Seattle Bout Tonight. Ey the Associated Press. EATTLE, May 11.—Freddie Steele, world middleweight boxing cham- pion, vowed today he would silence Eastern critics by trouncing Frankie Battalgia, a tough Minneapolis fighter, in a 15-round title bout here tonight. Steele declared he was aroused by written opinions that “he doesn't look like a champ.” “I'll make them eat those words,” said Steele as he shook the good right fist he had ready to stuff into Bat- taglia’s face. The challenger was sub- stituting for Ken Overlin of Rich- mond, Va., who became ill after ar- riving in Seattle for the bout. Despite the fact that Steele was a 2-to-1 favorite, Battaglia insisted he had a 50-50 chance to win. Tonight they enter the ring around 9:30 o'clock (12:30 Eastern standard time). Promoter Nate Druxman, who guar- anteed Steele $17,500 or 50 per cent of the gate, and Battaglia 15 per cent of the proceeds, said he expected close to & $40,000 sellout of the 9,000 seats.
