We may not be able to cure it but the less secrecy and less bargaining we do under ‘cover, the more likely we are to make the matches that the public wants to see. “My idea would be to say, frankly, that so-and-so makes the most desirable match, then make it clear to everyone exactly what obstacles, if any, arise to prevent making the fight on a reasonable basis. Of course I know there are all sorts of subterfuges, that the managers of fighters find ways and means to get around the rules and regulations. But by more direct dealing, the promoter at least can make his own position clear and let the public’s attitude take ‘care of the fighter.” Boxing At Fault There probably is no doubt that the box-fight business has in many respects greased its own skids. Champions have been moved around like the pieces on a check- erboard until the point has been reached during the past few years when the general public knew few of the professiona) titleholders by name, without first being prompt- ed, and still is not in the least con- 2 cerned about it. In fact titles have been so differences, causing conflicting claims by three or four boxers for the same championship, that they no longer mean much. A title match ig in itself no long- er the gate attraction it once was proof of which was furnished by the fact that the Schmeling-Baer heavy-weight match this summer with nothing but personal rivairy| at stake, outdrew by $40,000 the! rnera-Sharkey championship af-) fair, H In short, Colonel Kilpatrick takes over an industry at a time ‘when a world’s championship match can draw barely one-fif- teenth or less than seven percent ,of the “gate” for the peak pro- motion achievement of Tex Ric- kard’s career—the second Demp- sey-Tunney fight in Chicago. Garden Future Not At Stake | The future of the Garden is not, ef course, based on what happens te bexing or Colonel Kilpatrick's IK But fans will still see their Sun- day doubleheader. A new team, called the Young Stars, have been organized and will play the first game against the Trojans at 1:30 and the Sluggers will take on the Trojans in the second game, The league will continue as usual with the Young Stars taking the place of the Pirates, but a new schedule will have to be drawn up. The Young Stars may secure the services of any of the Pirate play- ers, but said players may not go! with any other team in the league. As a roster, the Young Stars have presented the following play- ers for a starter: L. Martinez, C. Castillo, G. Garcia, C. Garcia, L. Garcia, B. Bazo, B, Garcia, L. Gonzalez, A. Rendueles, A. Her- nandez, M. Acevedo, M. Sanchez and H: Molina. — TURNER JUNIORS AVENGED FORMER DEFEAT IN ‘ CONTEST WITH KEY: »wisT TEAM Winning a: closematch with ithe Key. West City team, the Turner Juniors net ‘team avenged a‘ for- mer defeat by taking the matches by nine points to six. The Miami team won by the margin of a doubles match, after Key West had won three out of five matches in the singles depart- ment, Two doubles and a single match were cancelled because of the heavy rain which inundated the East Coast last weekend. Following are the results: Rog- er Delano took Peter Varela in hand 6-1, 6-1. Seymour Feur broke through the cuts of A. Gomez and took a 6-1, 6-2 win. Jack Sinclair then turned in the first win for the locals by trim- ming Harold Kramer, 6-2, 6-4. Robert Pinder then got the num- ber of Leo Koehler 7-5, 6-3. —_ Ig- nacio Carbonell came through for the third straight Key West win! by downing Jack Roy 6-4, 4-6, 6-2 in the only match to go more! than three sets. It was fought throughout. In the doubles, Albury and De- lano of Miami, defeated Varela and Sinclair to the tune of 8-6, } 6-2,6-3 in another close match. The games were played on the Granada courts, Coral Gables and took place on Monday and Tues- day, BALL MEETING THIS MORNING TREASURER REPORT AND EX- PENSES OF TRIP DIS- CUSSED There was a meeting of the ey West Diamondball League this mornin The Citizen office.

Neither can a golf player drive |from the tee and kill a bird with the ball he drove. But this latter thing, that cannot be done, was done yesterday on the Key West course. Many “believe it or not” items have been written that tax the mind to believe. Some of them ap- pear outside the bounds of possi- bility, and seem hard to believe even when proven. However, be that as it may, Mayor William H. Malone, driving yesterday afternoon at the eighth hole, from which he never before made a successful drive, struck the ball fairly and squarely. It started on its flight, and when about 190 feet from the tee a bird known as a hell diver, crossed the struck in mid-air. The ball stopped. The bird stopped and both fell to the; ground. Mr. Malone picked up the bird and took it to the caddy house, where it is being kept as an evidence of the remarkable inci- dent.
