BY JACK DEMPSEY. OS ANGELES, July 27.—Not so | long ago I suggested there should be & national organiza- tion to provide for down-and- out boxers after they are no longer able to fight. I point out again the fact that fight fans are sickened by the pathetic cases of such men as the Jamaica Kid, Sam Langford and others. There are many half blind— and in some cases totally blind—for- mer fighters so handicapped because they had to go on fighting when they should have quit Many are too proud to beg; beg and get little or nothing Since I made the suggestion I have received many letters from real sport- tng fans asking how they may help In the meantime I want to praise the Veteran Boxers' Association of Philadelphia, popularly known as the V. B. A, which is doing a swell job and just bought a home. Chicago also has such an organization. some Pass Fees Suggested. BUT until all cities have V. B. As| funds must be raised by some set method T suggest a nominal fee on all com- plimentary fight tickets at the bigger clubs, the money to be handled by the State commissions. ‘This plan worked beautifully for #ome years in Baltimore, Commission Becretary Joe Kelly tells me.

A suggestion that all clubs be re- quired to run one show a vear and give receipts to the National Sports Alliance was cried down by the Gar- den’s Jimmy Johnston and an alli- ance official. 5 Jimmy feels smaller clubs shouldn't be burdened. but bigger ones should be required to run such a show. I agree. I can't credit it. even though Kelly and Johnston both insist that news- paper men are the only objectors to the levies on free tickets Working press tickets carry no tax Boxing writers I talked to said they're not against levies, but do object to extreme ‘‘service charges.” Too High in Chicago. “TAKE Chicago,” one writer said, “at least 1500 ringside comps earried a $2.60 ‘service charge,’ mean- ing $3.900. You can get plenty of clerical help with that kind of money."” He's right Two men could handle the clerical work; the charge should be only nominal. There are about 3,000 “comps” for 8 big title fight, and 300 for every fairly good fight in big cities. Even a nickel per comp per year would help hundreds of needy boxers.

Bottomley added, “I'm not going to be a sit-down man- ager.” “I want to make good in a big way, he said, turning serious once more. “I didn’t seek the position, but when T accepted it, I really took it over.” Smiling pleasantly, Jim waved off interviewers by adding: “Just say, if you want to, that old Jim, as a manager, will continue to give the best he's got, as he always did as a player—and maybe I'll know more of the correct answers for you next time.

OL. H. P. SHELDON, Gov- ernment gunning expert, who has ranged the hunt- ing flelds for 40 years, ranks the wild goose, black duck, ruffed grouse and wild turkey as the smartest of game birds. “Hunters must use all the cun- ning they possess if they hope to take any of those birds,” explained 8heldon, Biological Survey veteran. “All game birds, because they are eontinually sought after by man and predators, acquire cunning,” Bheldon said, “but, those four, I would say, are the wisest.” Col. Sheldon said none of the quartet could be called cannier than the others. “Fewer turkeys are killed, byt Gunning Expert. that's largely because turkeys are not as abundant as the other species. “Turkeys have keen eyesight and FAMILY can hear a twig break a hundred yards off. It's a real job to bag & wild turkey.” These birds, he said, seem to un- derstand man’s weapons and the range of his guns better than other game birds. Pheasants are clever, particularly in their hide-and-seek games with field dogs. The quail is adept at hiding and protecting itself, but it is a covey bird and follows the flock. ‘The owl, known as a wise old chap, really is stupid by compari- son with these others. He's a wise hunter, but poor at self-preservae tion. Minor Leagues INTERNATIONAL, fontreal. ¥: Jersey City, 3.

DEMPSEY, MONTANEZ ENJOY RING CONTEST Ex-Champ Gets $3.000 to Referee as Pedro Kayoes Ramey in 2 Minutes, 40 Seconds. By the Associated Press ] .08 ANGELES, July 2 Dempsey was paid a reported $3,000 for less than three minutes’ work last night—and didn't have to swing a punch. Dempsey refereed the bout in which Pedro Montanez of Puerto Rico stopped Wesley Ramey of Grand Rapids, Mich,, in 2 minutes and 40 seconds. It was a left hook that traveled hardly a foot that blasted Ramey out of the front ranks of the Nation's lightweights in Jess than a round. A crowd of less than 15.000—a dis- appointment to the promoters—had 5 3. rai 4. n. 4 seen Alberto Lovell, 192!,, the scar- | faced assassin from Argentina, batter Clarence (Red) Burman, 181, of Balti- | more, throughout their 10-rounder. Montanez, 136';, and Ramey, 135, moved out quickly and began tossing gloves. Pedro dug a couple hard punches to the body. caught him in the center of the ring and let the knockout punch loose. The fight was over. The third main event proved an upset as Ritchie Pontatne, 129, of Missoula, Mont., dealt out terrific body punishment to young Jackie Wilson, 1263, promising young Pittsburgh Negro, to carry eight of the 10 rounds. Wilson had been a heavy favorite. BALL CLUB CONSISTENT VICTOR Utah Team Composed Mostly of Rushtons Wins 12 Out of First 13 Games. UNTER, Utah (#).—When the Hunter base ball team takes the fleld, it’s “Rushton Rushton to Rushton”—no matter where the ball is hit. Because the team includes the Rushton brothers, Sam, pitcher; Chris, pitcher or catcher; Syl, first baseman, and Ed, outflelder, and their cousins— all Rushtons—Owen, second base; Clyde, shortstop; Lawrence, third bese; Warren, outeld, and Parley, out- field. A complete family nine. The roster also includes Randy Moesser, Levi Evans, Claude Coon and George Feulner. The Rushton team—at least seven of 'em play in every game—won 12 of its first 13 games in the Victory Independence League and captured three of its first four contests in the Farm Bureau circuit.

ENVER July 27 —Rogers Hornsby, ousted pilot of the St Louis Browns, indicated today he soon will be looking for a new managing job in the major leagues, The Rajah came here to play for the Denver Bay Refiners in the Denver Post’s annual semi-pro base ball tour- nament Thursday. “I am going back to Chicago to work ion a radio program after this tourna- ment.” Hornsby said “After that I will be receptive to any and all offers to manage a major league team.” | Tn Cheerful Mood. HORNSBY talked cheerfully of his discharge from his $20.000-a-year | job with the Browns by Donald L. | Barnes, the club president. | “I put over a pretty good bet on a limit horse (which pavs over $32 on | a $2 ticket), and the bookies adver- tised it to lure in the suckers or some- | thing.” the Rajah grinned. | Barnes heard about it ‘ “He probably assumed this Hornsby v was respongible for a poor ball club because he happened to bet on the nags. But I'll tell you right now my betting never lost a game for the Browns.” | Sells Good Players. I. IE SAID the Brown bosses gave him little co-operation. “Thay never bought me a player dur- | ng the time I was manager,” he said. | | “I made them some money last year by selling $110.000 worth of players, but they didn't buy me any with the profit. “So it's not sour grapes when I say Jim Bottomley isn't going to do any better than I did. if the club keeps the | same policy,” Hornsby declared. INDOORS SLOWS MILERS| Conditions Against Four-Minute Race, Says Olds, Track Coach. L. W. Olds, track coach at Michigan Normal College, says that whatever may happen outdoors the 4-minute mile never will be realized indoors be- cause of the presence of tobacco smoke and the high temperature and hu- midity. And indoors, under ideal conditions, is the one place, he thinks, where the 4-minute mile should be most possible. This because of lack of wind re- sistance.

NEW SLANT ON GRID Foot Ball Is Seen as “Sculpture” by Artist-Athlete. MADISON, Wis. (®)—Rudolf Jeg- art, the towering sculptor, who sold shares of stock in himself to finance a tour of Europe's art centers, is a candidate for an end position on the 1937 University of Wisconsin foot ball team. Jegart, & Milwaukee lad, who| measures 6 feet 4 inches, reported to Coach Harry Stuhldreher for Spring | practice, and announced he was pre- pared to prove there is some relation | between foot ball and sculpture. “Foot ball,” he said, “is & true ex- ample of kinetic sculpture because it attempts to portray movement and volume.” MILWAUKEE, Wis, July 27 (#).— The Milwaukee American Associa- tion Club was sued today for $50,000 by Miss Katherine Plantz, 21, who charged Her sight was impaired per- manently by a batted ball that struck ‘weighs about 127 pounds. her between the eyes. aged 70 per cent ringers to humble | 50—30, 50—44, 50—18, 50—17 and | L3 ITH rockfish beginning to strike almost everywhere in our section of Chesa- peake Bay the different methods used to snare them often are interesting for comparison’s sake. Until recently it almost was standard | practice to use the Junebug spinner and bloodworm, and, in fact, this still is one of the favorite methods, but other baits have been tried with much success, and are going a long way toward adding variety to the sport. Recently replacing the Junebug at Solomons is the small Japanese feather, best results being had with those with a red head rather than the standard yellow. Some anglers are using an artificial eel, which is sure death to the big rock when they are around. Last year this department had exceptional luck over in the Choptank River chumming with fresh shrimp. Several gallons of shrimp were | taken along. A handful was crushed | and tossed over, then another handful | of unharmed shrimp put over. The | shrimp worked its way along the cur- rent, attracting both rock and trout, and the sport did not stop until all the shrimp were gone. Wiggler Used for Rock. ANOTHER method of snaring rock has been advanced by John H. Gwathmey, a local angler who for many years has done his fishing near | Richmond. A bass casting rod, an Al Foss Oriental wiggler—a red and | white bait with a single hook—and a | piece of pork rind will furnish as | pretty sport as can be imagined in | certain waters, he says. Fishing through shoals. such as in Burwell's Bay in the Lower James River, the angling is best when the tide—either outgoing or incoming—is riffling over the shoals. ‘The boatman either anchors or con- tinues rowing so that casts may be | made into the riffles. For many years | they have specialized in rock fishing by this method at Burwell's Bay, and | the Oriental wiggler is the only bait used. It is a particularly interesiing | sport, Gwathmey says, because the fish do not run uniform in size, and if 2 big one happens to hit it will put up | % quite a fight on that tackle.

The 126-pound limit was set by Al Weill, Archibald’s manager, who will eollect $200 should Lou fail to shed his excess poundage. il SOUTH ATLANTIO, Macon at Columbia, rain. Why Pros’ Wives Also Tour Trust Their Husbands, Says Spouse of HE secret's out, as to why the wives of professional golfers travel around to the tournaments with their husbands. Mrs. La Verme Guldahl, wife of the American open champ, says that golf champions, and particu- larly handsome gents like Ralph Guldahl, attract woman golf fans in swarms and she isn’t taking any chance on losing her hubby. “Any woman married to a golf champion,” says the outspoken Mrs. Guldahl,” would be a fool to let him out of her sight for long. I don’t mean that you can’t trust the men—it's the girl golf fans you can’t trust. There’s something about a golf champion that seems to fascinate the average woman. ‘That type of athletic man just can- not move without girl fans swarm- ing around him—and my Ralph is particularly handsome, so I just don't take any chances.” Everywhere the pros go, to the big open tournaments and the little ones, 100, their wives go along.
