SPORTS. The SPORTLIGHT How Joe Fights Godoy Depends on Mood By GRANTLAND RICE, Special Correspondent of The Star. NEW YORK, May 27 (NAN.A).— Joe Louis is a great fighter, unques- tionably. But also he is a fighter of moods. Nobody éver questioned his gameness. He took a fearful battering from Max Schmeling in their first fight and kept going past many openings in which he could have gone down and stayed there. He got off the floor to knock out Jim Braddock and Tony Galento. But twice, at least, he has lost the hot urge to fight although he was winning—once in his first fight with Bob Pastor, before he won the title, and in his engagement with Arturo Godoy last winter. In each case Joe lost interest as the rounds were reeled off because his opponent didn’t fight the way he: expected him to fight, but whirled and darted about the ring, doing no damage to Joe.but keeping out of range of his punches or moving in quickly to smother them. He held both Pastor and Godoy lightly, no matter what he may have said before he entered the ring against them. He expected to flatten them quickly. Champ Irked and Bewildered When Foes Changed Styles. ‘When suddenly they switched styles on him, he didn’t like it and he didn’t know what to do. And from there he passed quickly into a state where the only thing that interested him was the final bell, for he had become even more bored than the spectators at what was going on in the ring. Now he has started training for his return bout with Godoy, which will be held in New York next month. ‘This time his training camp prom- ises to be a more interesting place than it usually is, for Jack Black- burn and his managers, John Rox- borough and Julian Black, have a | Job to do on him. They have to bring him back from that night in Madison Square Gar- den, when, for the first time since he came out of Detroit to hammer Primo Carnera to a pulp in six rounds, he heard a crowd hoot him. The crowd didn't like him in the Godoy fight—didn’t like his fumbling, his indecision, his reluctance to charge the bobbing, mauling Chilean be- cause, as he explained afterward, he was afraid he might hurt his hands on Arturo’s head. That wasn't the Louis the crowd knew—the Louis that all but took the huge Carnera apart, gave Max Baer a frightful hammering, beat down a game and stubborn Brad- dock, slaughtered Schmeling in their second fight, knocked out Pastor when he got a second crack at him, mercilessly ruined his friend, John Henry Lewis, and savagely battered Galento. Now, with another shot at Godoy looming, Louis has a chance to hear again the roar of a frenzied crowd. Two factors, aside from his sheer skill and punching power, will be in his favor. One is that Godoy, hav- ing managed to stay 15 rounds with him once, must go on from there— must try to win this time and not merely to survive the span of 15 rounds. The other is that Black- burn and Roxborough and Black will work hard to see that Joe is in & fighting mood. By this time Blackburn must know how Louis should fight Godoy and what maneuvers to follow if Godoy once more tries the tactics that served him so well in the Gar- den. Jack apparently was as be- wildered as Louis by the strange posturing - and gyrating of the South American. His bewilderment indicated that he isn’t much faster —if any—on the uptake than Louis. But it has not yet been demon- strated that, once having seen a fighter in action for 15 rounds, he will not know what to do with him | g the next time he sees him. Godoy Transformed by His Showing Against Champ. Meanwhile, there is evidence that Godoy gained greatly in confidence as a result of his surprising show- ing against Louis. No matter how he managed it, he did last 15 rounds. More than that, the fight was pretty close as the men passed the tenth round, and at the finish one judge | s¢ actually gave the decision to Godoy. Ever since Arturo has been ac- claimed widely, mainly by those who didn't see the fight but saw the mo- tion pictures, which made him look | zo: better than he really was. Once uncommunicative, he has been moved to tell so often about how he outwitted the champion that he probably has bolstered his ego con- siderably. He even may have talked himself into a spot where he ac- tually believes he beat Louis and was short-changed by the other Judge and the referee. If this is so, it could make him more dangerous than he should be on form ‘alone. He is rough and game and takes a punch well. If he is convinced that he beat Louis and can do it again, he might make a lot of trouble for the champion. The outcome of -the fight, how- ever—as I see it—depends less on Godoy than it does on Louis. Louis in an angry mood, trained to com- bat whatever style Godoy employs, throwing everything he has into every punch and thinking of noth- ing but the annihilation of his foe— the Louis that has given fight crowds more thrills than any heavy- weight that ever lived, including Jack Dempsey—should bomb .all the fight out of Godoy in six or eight rounds. But before I make a final ap- Young Horse Though To Need Only Gain In Heft fo Star D. C. Enh;ies Score One Of Their Rare Wins In Hunter Division By ROBERT HENRY. Usually when Washington horses invade Maryland or Virginia show rings they are odds-on favorites to return with open jumper laurels, but little to show for their efforts in hunter classes. This was re- versed yesterday when the fourth annual Marlborough Hunt Horse Show came to & close at the Marl- boro (Md.) Fair Grounds. Hunter champion was Mrs. N. H. McDowell’s inexperienced thorough- bred, Dunstar, and reserve was Ed- die Talbert’s yourig He'll Try, both of Washington. The jumper title and reserve went to High Boy, owned by Hammond Welsh and W. O. Welsh's Elizora, respectively, both Southern Maryland entries. Few of Washington’s open horses were entered, mainly because the recent show at Meadowbrook left them unfit for competition. Such winners as Black Cady Hi Ho and Lady Jack were absent and this left the division wide open. A disap- pointing entry from around Marl- boro also paved the way for Dis- trict competitors to shine in the hunter division. Dunstar Surprises Owner. No one was more surprised than Mrs. McDowell, who claims to be one of the few grandmothers show- ing, that Dunstar took the hunter title. Dunstar, a Virginia-bred son of Dunlin-Star Emerald, which Mrs. McDowell traded a few months ago for Modern Melody, saw action on the race track when a youngster, and like most former runners is greatly in need of weight. The fact that two such expert judges as Otto Furr and Courtland Smith of Mid- dleburg fancied Dunstar has given Mrs. McDowell confidence that when the horse gains 75 pounds or so0 he'll be a winner anywhere. Mild exercise, mostly walking, is expected to take care of the weight problem. Winner of three blues in Satur- day’s opening classes when ridden by Mrs. McDowell’s daughter Elaine, Danstar managed to take only one second ribbon yesterday in the open hunters, which Lt. Comdr. W. J. Lee’s Bolter won. Elaine was cram- ming for exams yesterday and could not ride, so Mrs. McDowell handled the champion in his only two hunter classes. Bolter, with Lt. Comdr. Lee riding, retired the Marlborough Hunt Trophy with his third straight victory in the class restricted to members of the hunt. Competition in this class reached a new low, for only one or two of those entered have shown anything noteworthy. Bolter came back later to win the gpfcxlx hunters over a slightly better e Another Washington horse took two firsts when Mrs. Richard Haw- kins, jr’s Isolde won the green h\murs with his owner up and the seurry class with Talbert up. High Boy could earn only third in the latter class after winning the open Jumpers’ sweepstakes and the touch and out when ridden by Mickey . The two points picked up in the scurry broke a deadlock be- tween High Boy and Ellzora for the jumper title, the final score being 14 points to 12. The best jumping of the day was in the triple bar, which went to Paul Weimert's Donomar after two extra rounds. . Ellzora was second here and also second in the sweépstakes. The Summaries.

J., with an amazing 72-hole total of 264, believed a record for such tournament play. The dog’s name is Hexe, a toy pinscher. —A. P. Wirephoto. Wood, Champion Near-Champ, Feared in U. S. Open After Remarkable Metro Win By the Associated Press. BLOOMFIELD, N. J, May 27— The other 169 guys who will shoot for the National Open golf title at Cleveland: June 6-8 might as well take - warning now—Craig Wood, the champion “almost” man of the golfing business, finally has reached the stage of winning an important tournament. ‘Wood, 38 years old and a veteran of a good many years of pro cam- | paigning, has missed more titles in playoffs or by narrow margins than most golfers hope to win in a life- time. But there wasn’t any “almost” about the way he took the Metro- politan Open crown at the Forest Hill Field Club. Starting with a 6-under-par for a course and tournament record Friday, the blond bomber followed up with rounds of 66, 68 and 66 for & 72-hole total 6f 264. This was not the lowest four-round total ever re- carded, but it was believed to be a record for important competition on a full-length course. The only better score for a major event shown in the record books was 262, made over the short San Remo course in Italy by Percy Alliss when he won the 1935 Italian Open title. ‘Wood won by an 11-stroke margin \Hramika of Aviators Swats .625 fo Lead 2 | Milifia League Bolling Field Maintains Custom of Producing 't Least One Bam Producing at least one heavy hit- ter for the Militia League is getting to be an old Bolling Field custom, statistics for the first six games re- veal. Topping the service sluggers is Joe Hramika, first baseman, who spanked out 20 hits in his first 32 times at, the tee for a .625 mark. Not only is Hramika a good hitter but a fine fielder as well and his play thus far has won him the title of the league's best infielder. He looks good enough for a pro berth, although it may be the competition that adds to his stature. Boyce of St. Elizabeth’s, hitting .458; Privara of Bolling, .429; Wan- ley, St. Elizabeth’s, .385, and McFad- den, St. Elizabeth’s, .375, round out the five leading hitters.

He slashed 16 strokes off a par that was reduced to 70 for the tournament and bettered by 14 strokes the Metropolitan champion- ship record that was set by Mac Smith in 1914 and equaled by Tommy Armour in 1928. The former Bloomfield pro, who now serves at the Winged Foot Club at Mamaroneck, N. Y., might well regard that performance as a turn- ing point in his career. Only last week he trailed the entire field in the Goodall round robin tourney at Fresh Meadow. He first broke into the headlines as a big-time golfer in 1931, when he tied for the North and South Open title and lost in a playoff. Two years later he finished third in the United States Open, then tied Denny Shute for the British Open crown only to lose the playoff again. In 1934 Wood carried Paul Runyan to the 38th hole before losing in the final of the National P. G. A. cham- pionship and last summer he took another playoff beating after finish- ing in a 3-way tie with Byron Nelson and Shute for the National Open title. ‘The Canterbury course probably will be a somewhat stiffer test for the Open than Forest Hill was this week end, but Wood apparently can cool off a lot and still be good enough to win. The Open record score is 281, and 284 has been good enough to win the last two years. Forest Hill wasn't exactly a push- over for most of the field, either. There were a lot of sub-par rounds, but only Wood and Hogan could beat regulation figures for four rounds. Hogan shot 68—69—71—69. Vic Ghezzi of Deal, N. J., was third with 4n even par 280. -Major Leaders By the Associated Press. AMERICAN LEAGUE. Batting—Radcliff.
