A—I8 BOXING WILL MISS RUEGEDCANZONER Big Loss to Sport, Dempsey Contends—Thinks Jeffra Has Proper Pepper. BY JACK DEMPSEY. HE old order of things will pass in the lightweight division. A new crop will hold sway within a year. But, for the good of boxing, I hope the new crop contains & Canzoneri—for his heart, his hit- ting, his honest-to-goodness fighting instinct. Tony's type could cure everything that's wrong with boxing— if we had one in every division. After telling me positively he'd quit if he lost to Lou Ambers in their lightweight title fight, what did he do? No sooner had Lou beaten him be- yond a shade of doubt that Tony blazes out with an “I can lick him.” But whether that was just a natural outburst from a real fighting man, of a considered plan, my prediction was, unfortunately, accurate—Tony's years are complaining. 'A LOT of people are saying he got a lot out of boxing—three world titles and a lot of money. But let me tell you, he gave boxing a lot, too. He gave every fan his money's worth. In a way I am glad I didn't see that title bout—due to being at the Kentucky Derby—I want to remem- ber that terrific, tearing Tony. Tony also confided he'd go after Pedro Montanez if he won. That's ‘Tony—he went out looking for fights. The trouble is there aren't enough Tonys to go round. ‘We could use his go-after-'em at- titude among the heavyweights, but, come to think of it, some of the other champions aren’t doing too well, either. Ambers, Sixto Escobar, the bantam champion, and Barney Ross, the wel- ter king, are all having “title trou- ble.” Overweight Bouts Take Toll. RIOR to meeting Tony, Ambers fought one of those over-the- weight bouts, as did Escobar, and both took pretty good shellackings from their outstanding challengers. Montanez looked as if he was Lou's master in the early rounds, but Lou surprised Pedro's supporters with his strong finish. Escobar took on little Harry Jeffra of Baltimore and took a good licking in the bargain. This came in the Garden, repeating a Jeffra victory in Baltimore last October. Both were non-title fights, and now Harry is hollering for a battle with the title up. Just before I left for the Derby I heard Max Waxman offer Lou Brix, Esoober's manager, a guarantee of $5,000 to fight Jeffra in Baltimore for the title. Jeffra Eager Fighter. HARRY is a good fighter, all right, and a likable, eager fellow, who brings enthusiasm into a game that needs it. I met him in North Philadelphia station not long ago and he urged me to show him how I threw a left hook. That kid and I probably looked like & couple of nuts the way we were feinting around. He's always on the alert to learn more. “How long did it take you to be ethampion?” he inquired eagerly. That started me off and I nearly missed my train. I like his pepper. He'll do. I hope e makes it. He'd give Baltimore an- other top-flight fighter. That city seems to turn out great little fighters. (Copyright, 1037.)

The Young Democrats Club of Bouthern Maryland base ball team defeated Snug Harbor yesterday, at Beabrook, Md., 4-2 SPORTS. HERE are very few bloodhounds in this vicinity, and indeed, very few in the country. Most people base their opinions about bloodhounds on Uncle Tom's Cabin and similar horrific tales. How- ever, Officer Stewart of the seventh precinct based his opinion of the breed upon actual experience with it when he was stationed at Lorton during the riots of 1932. He learned then that these dogs were intelligent, obedi- ent and very affectionate. They may be used for hunting wild game as well as wild men. So, when he got ready to buy a dog for his 4-year-old son and baby daughter, he got a bloodhound. He calls her the Merry Duchess of Lorton, and & most inter- esting, if not merry, pup she is. Al- though only 3!, months old she has an ear spread from tip to tip of more than 20 inches. Her framework is about the size of a 4-year-old Ger- man shepherd pup, but she has skin enough to hold a young elephant. When Stewart picks her up by the loose skin of her back she resembles a queer suitcase with a pup rattling around somewhere in the bottom of it. She has big, puppyish feet vaguely reminiscent of Charlie Chaplin's, and that deep, sad look of cosmic weari- ness for which that comedian and bloodhounds are noted. Dog Magazine Worthwhile. HAT sprightly little magazine which was started about two years ago by E. W. Leach as a free circula- tion magazine dedicated to the inter- ®ests of the kennel owner and exhibitor, has had to succumb to the forces of the high cost of living and has gone on the long and shifting list of sub- scription paid magazines. It was a nice theory that such a magazine could pay for itself and a profit to its pub- lisher by advertising, but re- sults didn’t substantiate the theory. However, Kennel Club News is an interesting magazine, one of special interest to the kennel owner and breeder, and even at the cash-in- advance price of $2 per year is well worth getting. Canines Cure Bad Temper. A NEW cure for an old disease is said to be the acquisition of a dog to cure bad temper. Hot headed people often find that owning a dog either shames them into being more considerate or teaches them to be more considerate. A dog will take unmerited punishment from a beloved master with nothing more reproachful than a sad look. The hot headed kennel owner who tries to pose or train or groom his dogs for show finds that he has an almost impossible task on his hands if he does not learn to curb his temper. If a dog is not devoted par- ticularly to a person the impatient man can do nothing with him. Doctors are recommending that dia- betics, especially children, who are inclined to be of explosive, worrisome dispositions, take to dog owning to increase their own life expectancies. Great Dane Show Successful. ‘HE Great Dane Club of America held its first independent show on Wednesday, May 5, at the Madison Square Boys' Club in New York City. It was a futurity match for puppies under a year old, held under the usual rules for such matches which stipulate that bitches must be nominated for such shows after they are bred and before they whelp, and that the pup- pies must be nominated after they reach a certain age, decided upon by the club members. Judging by the enthusiasm with which this first futurity was received, it is thought the Great Dane Sweepstakes will become an annual affair. This show was judged by Alva Ros- enberg who awarded first prize to Braeson of Brae Tarn, owned by R. P. Stevens. Second went to Orel of Warrendane, owned by H. M. Warren; third went to another Brae Tarn en- try, and fousth to another Warren- dane entry. It would seem that the hopes for the Great Dane's future rested pretty largely on these two ken- nels, judging by this decision. Seven- teen puppies were shown altogether, each one the cream of his breeder’s crop for the year. Dog Show Vignette. THE pathos and the humor of the dog show recently were exempli- fled in one incident at a dog show. A woman was seen entering the gates carrying in her arms a small, silky- haired, black and white dog which remotely resembled a Shetland sheep- dog, possibly a Shetland sheepdog crossed with English toy spaniel. As she walked along, she seemed to be looking for the section where her dog was to be benched. And as she walked she talked in soothing tones to the dog as to a delicate or shy child. Thinking to be of some service to her, a man stopped and asked if he could help her find her bench and inquired what breed of dog she had. To his intense surprise he was told that it was a Dandie Dinmont terrier, & very distinctive, rough-haired, Dorothy Kirby Aims at Peak Young Dixie Golf Champ Out to Prove Pro’s Claim That She’s Country’s Best. By the Associated Press. TLANTA, May 24—Dorothy Kirby of Atlanta, Southern golf champion at 17, will have a chance in the na- tionals at Memphis in October to prove the claim of her professional —that she's the best young weman golfer in America. ‘The attractive schoolgirl won the Southern title at East Lake Satur- day by defeating Mrs. Estelle Law- son Page of Greensboro, N. C., medalist in the 1936 national tournament, 2 and 1, in their 36- hole match. ‘When they presented her the big silver cup emblematic of Southern supremacy, she turned and handed it to Howard Beckett, professional at the Capital City Club, who taught her the fine game that car- ried her through the fastest field in the 26 years of the Southern tournament’s history. “She’s the best young woman golfer in America,” Beckett said, “and I believe either she or Mrs. Page, the runner-up, can win from Patty Berg or & number of others who have higher ratings,” he added. “She’s got the game. She's getting the experience.” Beckett, who taught President and Mrs. Woodrow Wilson to play ,the game, took Dorothy in hand at the age of 12, and since then she's won. the Georgia title three times, and now the Southern erown. THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MONDAY, MAY 24, 1937. OGS LI By RRTAYNTON short-legged, pepper and salt or mus- tard colored breed of dog. Rather non-plussed, but still determined to be helpful, he helped her find her number and went on. Then seeing this strange little dog benched among the terriers, and noting an apparent bewilderment on the face of the dog owner, another frequenter of dog shows who knows her breeds, stopped to talk to the ex- hibtor. This questioner, too, was told that the dog was a Bandie Dinmont. When the questioner, who merely was trying to save the new exhibitor the embarrassment of showing her dog in competition with some real Dandies, tried to call her attention to the great difference in type, she promptly was put in her place with the haughtily uttered remark, “This is of the English aristocracy of Dandie Dinmonts, not one of the squatty dogs they have here.” It remains to be seen whether this new exhibitor will retire into a shell from which she will emerge only long enough to tell the world that all dog breeders are crazy and that she has the only Dandie Dinmont in captivity, or whether she will take cognizance of the fact that she still has some- thing to learn about dogs, and will pitch in and learn it. If she takes the latter course, she may develop into as rabid a dog show fan as any now extant. But to hazard a guess based on the kind of dog she was showing and of which she was obviously very fond, she will not be & Dandie Din- mont fancier. England is Doggiest Country. {NGLAND is known as the doggiest country in the world. It has been responsible for the introduction to Europeans and Americans of many breeds of dogs which originated in the far corners of the world. It has launched on great tides of popularity some breeds that before England's sponsorship had attained but mod- erate popularity in their own coun- tries, notably the German shepherd, which is known as the Alsatian in British countries. At present it is actively engaged in sponsoring two American breeds, the Chesapeake retriever, which is very popular with English sportsmen, and the Boston terrier, whose popularity there is being fostered by a group of well-known women breeders. On sev- eral occasions recently scouts have visited this country to purchase breed- ing stock, and twice that stock has been found at well-known District kennels. Just recently Mrs. Richard Birney of the Aspin Hill Ken- nels sold two young dogs, a male and a female, to a British breeder who prefers to be anon- ymous. ‘The prices paid are said to be very high in three figures, but the buyer professed herself pleased, as the com- bination preferred by English breed- ers, of medium size, uncropped, well- carried ears, sure production and easy whelping are hard to find. To replenish her own kennels Mrs. Birney took & trip to Cleveland, where she bought from the Middleton Ken- nels a female bred to Champion Wee Sammy, the sire of seven champions. She also bred one of her own females to the same dog. LEWISTON BRAKES ON.

Meet Test. BY DILLON GRAHAM, Associated Press Bports Writer. ITTSBURGH, May 24.—It has been 15 years since a slender little Itallan youngster named Sarazen scaled golf's heights on & Pittsburgh course, Today that same Gene Sarazen, middle-aged and plump, sought to reclimb the Alle- gheny foothills to another title, Sarazen was one of a fleld of 114 that started this morning in the first 18 holes of the 36-hole qualifying for the Professional Golfers’ Association championship over the hilly Pittsburgh Field Club layout. Back in 1922, the diminutive ex- caddy won the national open. His victory came as a surprise and many expected him to “blow” a few weeks later when he played here for the P. G. A. crown. But the stout-hearted Roman firmly established himself as a front-rank golfer by winning. Since then he's been a threat in every tour- nament and has bagged another na- tional open, a British open and two P. G. A. championships. Sarazen Would Fool Critles. LATDLY Gene hasn't been scoring. The 1934 Augusta masters’ tour- ney, which he won in a play-off after his famous double-eagle brought him & tie with Craig Wood, was his last major triumph. Word has gotten around among the professionals that maybe Gene is fading. 8o the veteran pro, who turned gen= tleman-farmer on his Brookfleld Cen- ter, Conn.,, estate, comes back to the scene of his early glory to re-estab- lish himself. “I'm in good shape and I hope to show the boys a thing or two,” Gene smiled. The 63 low scores over the 6,665-yard par 73 test for the 36 holes will join Champion Danny Shute in the match play rounds Wednesday. Shute is exempt from qualifying, but will play in hopes of winning the Alex 8Smith Memorial Trophy. “I like this course,” the Boston thin man said. “I've played quite a bit lately and believe I'm ready to go.” ‘With one exception, Tom Creavy in 1931, the P. G. A. always has been captured by one of the professional front runners, so the experts looked to the Ryder Cup members and con- tenders and the former champions to produce this year's victory. Fight for Ryder Cup Posts. ALL the former champions since 1920—except Creavy and Hagen, who are touring abroad—are entered. They are Sarazen, Paul Runyan, Olin Dutra, Johnny Revolta, Leo Diegel, Shute and Tommy Armour. The six Ryder Cup members already selected are Sarazen, Revolta, Henry Picard, Open Champion Tony Manero, Shute and Horton Smith. Others named as contenders—to be selected on their play here and in the national open next month—are Byron Nelson, Augusta masters’ winner; Jimmy Hines, winner of the recent Metro- politan open; Craig Wood, Ed Dudley, Vic Ghezzi, Harold McSpaden, Dutra, Ky Laffoon, Ralph Guldahl and Sam Snead. Guldahl, who burned up the Winter courses, and Sam Snead, the long- hitting West Virginia rookie ace, who yesterday won the $350 prize for long- est ball and longest average of three shots in the driving contest, are a pair of relative newcomers who may cut & pretty figure. The big fleld got away at 10 a.m. Most of the favorites started consid- erably later, with Diegel, Picard and Armour, the first of the well-known stars, to go off around 10:30 a.m. HALL BALL FEUD OPENS 20,000 See Jersey Giants Beat Leading Newark Bears. JERSEY CITY, May 24 (#).—What should develop into the most lucrative rivalry in the International League, the ancient feud between the Jersey City Giants (nee Skeeters) and the Newark Bears, has opened in a man- ner befitting the circuit’s most vig- orous feud. The Giants, deep in the league’s second division, thrilled some 20,000 customers yesterday by staging a three-run rally in the ninth to top the proud Bears, undisputed holders of first place, 6 to 5, and send the year's series off with a salvo of base hits and a prolonged cheer from the cus- tomers.

Al has contrived to transfer from Richmond, the spot where nor- mally he would qualify, to Chevy Chase, and will be one of the starters in the field of 50 or more who will try for about six places. If he's on his stick he can grab one of the places. Sprinkled through the good field Wil be a smattering of amateurs, among them Martin F. McCarthy, Luther Steward, George F. Miller and Parker Nolan. All the pros in this sector will be entered, except Wiffy Cox, who is an automatic qualifier by reason of his sixth-place finish at Baltusrol last year. The course will be open for prac- tice Thursday and Friday afternoons and will be available for out-of-town entrants Sunday and Monday after- noons. Most of the Virginia pros will play their qualifying rounds at Rich- mond, but Houghton, one of the bet- ter scoring pros in this sector, was a transfer from his post at Old Point Comfort, Va., to the Washington area. C. H. (Pete) Pardoe, well known Washington golfer, has been burning up his home golf course. Pete scored rounds of 69 and 71 over the Vir- ginia layout over the week end. A small fleld of local pros were playing today in a Middle Atlantic P. G. A. pro-amateur affair at the Mount Pleasant public course. George Diffenbaugh and Al Treder, prominent in all the sectional P. G. A. tourneys, were absent. Both were playing in the national P. G. A. championship at Pittsburgh, whose qualifying rounds started today. ‘WO Washington teams were licked by Baltimore outfits in team con- tests played in Baltimore yesterday. Beaver Dam, winner of the Washing- ton section tourney in the Maryland State Golf Association Spring team matches, was soundly trounced by Rolling Road in the final round at Hillendale, losing by 13!; to 41, even though Martin F. McCarthy, ace of the Washington team, scored a 71. Woodmont Country Club golfers dropped a 2212-to-4!; decision to the Woodholme club-swingers at Wood- holme, enabling the Baltimore players to gain a leg on the trophy offered for competition between the two clubs. Argyle golfers turned back the Quantico divot-flingers by an 185-to- 2!2 count in a match at Argyle. L. W. Laudick and Merrill Lord, well known Columbia golfers, have won the right to challenge Dana Belser and Craig McKee for the Cum- mings trophy, emblematic of the two- man-team championship of the club. Laudick and Lord shot a better ball of 70 yesterday to win the qualifying spot. Miller B. Stevinson and Donald Woodward, who held the cup for five years, missed qualifying by two shots, with a 72.

BXLLY SHEA, the tall, loose-swing- ing champion, won't be around, but every other schoolboy of any golf- ing consequence will be present and accounted for when the metropolitan schoolboy tournament opens Friday afternoon at Manor Club. Billy isn't eligible to defend the crown he won in 1935 and 1936, as he now is winding up his freshman year at Georgetown University and is getting ready to take his place on the Hoya golf team of 1938. But Bobby Brownell, the tow- headed Roosevelt High kid, will be around, and that spells trouble for all the rest of the lads. Bobby stands out among the high school boys like a lighthouse on a dark and stormy sea, and if he doesn't win the 1937 edition of Frank Em- mett’s personally conducted little schoolboy ~tournament, then War Admiral can't win a plater race. Bobby should romp through that tournament like a Bobby Jones. He looks like the class of the high school kids. Entries will close Wednesday with Frank Emmett, at 4921 Thirtieth place, or at Georgetown Prep School. The tournament will be played over three courses. It will start with a medal round Friday afternoon at Manor, where 32 boys will qualify, will move over to Indian Spring on Saturday and Sun- day the semi-final and final rounds will be played at Congressional. It's open only to boys attending senior high schools and prep achools located within 15 miles of the White House. FOR FOURPLAGES Four Rounds in National Open Event Included in Golf Test. ERO hour sounds today over the tricky course of the Pitts- burgh Field Club for 11 men Who hope to board a liner to England as members of the American Ryder Cup team which will meet the British professional golf outfit in England next month, Sam Snead, the 25-year-old Virginia mountain lad, who ranks second in money winnings among the pro golfers over the past five months, is in the group chosen by the Professional Golf~ ers’ Association to scrap it out for four places on the Ryder Cup squad, and nothing in connection with the P. G. A. championship, which started today near smoky Pittsburgh, carries more interest than the efforts of these men in the medal round. Weeks ago the P. G. A. named six men to the Ryder Cup squad and nomi- nated 13 more to fight for the re= maining four places. Those named outright for the team are Horton Smith, Henry Picard, John Revoita, Tony Manero, Denny Shute and Gene Sarazen, with Waiter Hagen as captain, The 13 from whom the other 4 were to be chosen include Dick Metz, Ed Dudley, Byron Nelson, Ralph Guldahl, Sam Snead, Ray Mangrum, Harold McSpaden, Jimmy Hines, Ky Laffoon, Craig Wood, Victor Ghezzi and Olin Dutra. Metz is too ill to play and Man- grum didn't qualify, leaving 11 play- ers who will start the six-round medal trail for the four places. Medal Scores to Decide. HEY will be chosen on their scoring in the 36-hole medal round for the P. G. A. championship, and the four rounds of the national open at Detroit, starting June 10. The list may be further cut by one or two who may fail to qualify for the open title chase in sectional rounds to be played June 1. On the 1937 record Snead faces the barrier a favorite, for the young man from White Sulphur Springs has won more than $4,000 over the past six months and has been an outstanding competitor in every tournament. But 50 has Guldahl, who won at Miami and earlier at Augusta. And so have Dudley, who won at Sacramento, and Nelson, who won the Jones tourney at Augusta. That littie scrap for the four open Spots on the American Ryder Cup team packs more drama than anything the P. G. A. has done in recent years, They all want to go and it may run down to the last putt at Detroit next month. syAuto Trouble?
