FRIDAY, MARCH 31, 1939 HENRY ARMSTRONG IN GARDEN TONIGHT JACK ROPER TO FIGHT JOE LOUIS IN LOS ANGELES ON APRIL 17 (Special to The Citizen) H NEW YORK, March 31.—Davey . Day, Chicago, 147 pounder, is slated to be fed to Henry Arm- strong, light and welterweight champion of the world, in a wel- terweight title bout ai Madison Square Garden tonight. | Many of Davey’s friends be-! lieve he can beat the Human Dynamo, and the bets have dropped to a margin of 2 to 1, in favor of the champion. i Armstrong is also scheduled to fight Ernie Broderick, the king of the 147 poundes' in. England, late in May.*\Bhe double 'title holders infends to hOp,over ‘to France at the tarne time and: show the Frogs what fighter looks like. On his return he faces'.Lou’ Ambers in New York on August 9. The fistic world will be kept quite busy, it seems. And here are more coming bouts of great importance: Jack Roper meets world’s heavyweight champion Joe Louis in Los Angeles on April 17. The San Francisco Exposition crowd will be there. Late in June, Joe will exchange blows with Two- Ton Tony Galento in New York and another world’s fair crowd will be in attendance. ‘YANKEES STILL LEADING TEAM RED SOX AND TIGERS EX- PECTED TO FURNISH SOME OPPOSITION’ . (Special to The Citizen) NEW YORK, March 31.—Cov- ering the American League teams just before the season opens: * New York Yankees are still the leading team of the junior circuit, but this league, as a whole, has increased in superior- ity as the '39 campaign nears. . . Boston Red Sox and Detroit, Tigers have greatly improved, it seems, over last year. These. two teams are expected to give the Yanks the most competition. | Ted Williams will help the Sox,; and Fred Hutchinson, the Pacific Coast ‘sensation, will aid the Ti- Cleveland Indians’ chances will greatly rest on the arm of Johnny} Allen. . . | Washington “Senators fiave three or four new faces on their squad and that may help them break into the first division. . . Hank Greenberg claims He is not going to try to beat Babe Ruth’s homerun record but he is going to attempt to better the runs-batted-in record. Hack Wil- son held the National League rec- ord with 190 and Lou Gehrig the junior circuit’s mark of 184. Hank claims he will bat in 200 this year and better both marks. . . Red Sox purchased Monte Weaver from the Nats. . . Sporting writers all over the country are trying to say that Roberto Ortiz, the Cuban. rookie with the Senators, has never seen a ball game. Such is not the case. Ortiz went to Mexico with an all- Cuban amateur nine and also journeyed to South America with the club. . . Monteagudo, who won 19 and lost 10 games for Trenton last year, may stick with the Sena- tors. Carrasquel, of Venenzuela, has pitched for seven years, ac- cording to Cuban papers, and Robert Stallella, who is but five feet six inches, and one of fhe smallest men in the majors, may stay in the Senators’ outfield. And Closed By A Him (Ha Ha!) When they told Mrs. Mac Jones that she wauld have to undergo an operation for appendicitis, she insisted on the presence of the “meenister” “But why?” they asked; “it’s a, simple operation and there’s no danger”. “Maybe not”, said she, decis-' ively, “but if I'm to be opened | I'll be opened with prayer”. = .
