Pounded but not greatly damaged by every clout known to fisticufs, | the title threat of Paolino Uzcudun, | woodchopper of the Pyrenees, faded when Jack Delaney’s right hand was lifted in victory on a foul, after one minute and 57 seconds of fighting in the seventh of a 15-round fight at the Yankee Stadium last night. Thrice warned by the referee for low punching, Paolino was waved to his corner after a fourth left hook landed below the belt. The result stunned the spectators, who had seen nothing untoward in the mill- ing, and left in its wake a contro- versy of “foul or no foul" that ri-| valled the sudden termination of the battle between Dempsey and Shar- {key in the same ring and in the same round only three weeks ago. While the fracas lasted there was | no question of supremacy. Return-| ing to heavywelght ranks six months | after his defeat at the hands of| Jimmy Maloney, Delaney speared the clumsy Paolino at will with either hands; cut his face and bruised his nose until his features were a mask of blood .But hard and | refused to go down or waver. He never once halted a steady al-| straight as the punches fell, Paolino aaaadl ALLOWED ONLY 2.6/ Rt PER GAME LAST SE/IC DELANEY AWARDED | KREMER WAS BEST PITCHER TEAM FOUR BALL ATCH TOMORROW Popular Tournament to Be Staged at Shuttle Meadow A team four-ball match, one of the most popular tournaments of the season, will be played at the Shuttle Meadow Golf club tomorrow as the weekly event. Despite the fact that beaches have claimed a good number of the rabid golfers at the club, the entry list tomorrow is ex- pected to be a big one because of the fact that the team four-ball match is on the cards. Also tomorrow, the sunset tour- nament will be started. This is a best selected 38 holes affair. It will continue until September 3. This tournament works just the same as a ringer tournament as far as score: g0 except that it is not necessary to play 18 holes. Any hole in any num ber of holes played will count. A new wrinkle has appeared since it was declared that Yons Porter won first honors in the twilight tournament which finished a week or so ago. The wrinkle has come in the form of a protest from Ted Hart to the effect that he, instead of fishing for the fiery muskellonge as was reported, actually played dur- ing the final week and handed in a card. Ted claims that his round for the final week gave him an $1 and if this is so, he is tied with Porter for first place in the tournament. The tournament committee can't find any trace of the card and the members of it have hunted high and low. Backers of Porter claim that Hart is mixed up in tourna- ments. They state that he is under CORBINS END SEASON IN FIRST PLACE DEADLOCK Lockmakers Measure Fafnirs 7 to 1 In Final Scheduled Game—Playoff With Stanley Works to Take Place August 23—Double Plays Feature Victory—Preis- ser Stars In the Field — Landers Team Swamps | Russwins In Slugfest At Park members of the Fafnir team to get League Standing s two hits.
