ENRY ARMSTRONG, who has buried more fistic ambitions than an undertaker, will un- ravel the scythelike punches have carved an amasing record featherweight and lightweight ranks tomorrow night at Griffith Btadium, employing Johnny Cabello the punching bag.

Cabello i3 a better-than- verage fighter, but many ringwise veterans have stamped Armstrong as eat and therein lies the difference.

J,, August 14 (A —Tommy Farr, British challenger for Joe Louis’ heavy- weight boxing crown, turned in the most impressive workout since he started training three weeks ago, when he showed to an advantage against four sparring partners today. The British Empire champion, who will meet Louis at the Yan- kee Stadium August 26, boxed five rounds, one each with Basher Dean, Larry Johnson and Joe ‘Wagner and two with Abe Feld- man. His speed, skill and ac- curate punching surprised the ringside experts. | popular of modern sports still employ | trials, tracking trials, fox hunting and | with locality, flat racing, hurdle racing, | REGISTRATION figures for the first i beagles, Pekingese, English springer QUEER quirk appears in a news | item from Independence, Mo.

This “page” was pub- lished at the Tomb of Amten in the Nile Valley between 4000 and 3500 B. C. The most ancient of sports all employed dogs and many of the most dogs. One of the earliest treatises on | the use of dogs in sport was written by Xenophon in 400 B.C. It concerned hare hunting and insisted that followers of this sport should be sportsmanlike in their attitude toward the hare as well as toward each other and the dogs. Among the modern sports which fea- ture the dog are obedience trials and bench shows, gun dog trials, retrieving hunting for other game which varies coursing and the outlawed, although not extinct, bull baiting and pit fight- ing. first half of 1937 put the cocker spaniel far in advance, with the Bos- ton terrier second. Scottish terriers, fox terriers (both coats), greyhounds, spaniel, chow chows and dachshunds follow in that order. TH‘E value of dogs in child training often has been asserted. It is rot 50 well known that dogs play a large part in curing the neuroses of adults. One of our local breeders claims that dogs have played a large part in teaching him to ourb his violent temper, which was an outward manifestation of a neurosis that made him a hard person to live with er deal with. 3 He found he could not handle or train dogs for exhibition until he learned to control himself.

BY BURTON HAWKINS. HERE will be three direct vio- lations of the District boxing code on tomorrow night's card at Griffith Stadium. One of these was unavoidable and was waived by the District Boxing Commission, but the others apparently were de- liberate and are contrary to the best interests of the game. Nestled in the rules and regula- tions laid down by the District swat body is & clause which forbids fighters to appear here if they have fought elsewhere within the six previous days. Frank Donofrio and Johnny Johnson both battled 10 rounds against nationally recognized fighters only Friday night. Fans Being Cheated. SPECTATORS aren't getting what they pay for in those cases. They have a right to expect a well-condi- tioned fighter to step into that ring, but with repetition of these instances they may receive a weary punch pusher or assubsitute. It 50 happened that Donofrio broke Tom Henry's nose in that argument, but it might have been reversed. He lost the decision, so it's logical to assume he shed a few punches over those 10 rounds, Johnson trimmed Tony Falco, & rugged welterweight, and also was forced to travel 10 rounds. If either had been injured, the local card would have had to be repaired with substitutes, and these last minute subs seldom are any boon to boxing. As it is, Donofrio and Johnson are facing their second tough tiffs in three days, which hardly Is calculated to improve their prowess. Armstrong in Same Boat. ENRY ARMSTRONG, in the fea- ture fuss with Johnny Cabello, also will be pushing paws for the second time in three days, having kayoed Eddie Brink in New York Friday night. The local commission waived the infraction of the rule in this instance because the Brink ’ - battle was postponed from earlier in the week due to rain. Donofrio, according to Earl McDon- ald, co-promoter of the show with Joe Turner, was signed two weeks ago. The contract states specifically that contracting parties should fa- miliarize themselves with the rules of the commission. Apparently Donofrio Johnson didn’t bother. Pete Moran, the Philly match- maker, who hooked the fighters here, claimed he didn't realize the rule ap- plied to preliminary boys, but the clause definitely includes all contest- ants. Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn and McDonald, both of whom apparently were ignorant' that Donofrio and Johnson were slated for action in Wildwood, N. J, and Atlantic City, respectively, only 72 hours before their appearance here, claimed neither fighter was injured, and since the commission had okayed Armstrong, why not pass the others? ! and Sets Poor Precedent. UNOPFXCIALLY, the commission felt it was too late to do any- thing about it, so Donofrio faces Buddy Scott in an eight-round semi- final and Johnson mixes with George Henry, New York welterweight, in & six-rounder. All of which, perhaps, is & sporting gesture by the com- mission, but a mighty poor prec- edent. The commission has done some fancy waiving in recent weeks, and by so doing may be splitting its col- lective throat. It allowed Buck Ever- ett to fight Eddie Hogan, who out- weighed him by more than 50 pounds, although Buck weighed in under the light-heavyweight limit. This called for only a 12-pound pull in weights, but the commission waived a rule and Buck was kayoed in the first round. Buck was a pitiful figure in the dressing room after that battering. The commission should have seen him. They should enforce those rules before it's t00 late. | Lounge | practice sharpens the eye, whets the | Dusek, featured | BY PAUL J.
