MAC FARLAND DECIDES LINEUP
FOR NEW YORK SIX-DAY RACE

The final lineup of the teams for
the New York six-day race, with one
exception, was definitely decided upon
last night by Manager mcfarland.
Eighteen teams will start, and it
makes the biggest field ever entered
in the annual grind. Victor Linart,
the Belgian motor-paced champion, is
without a teammate so far, but there
are three foreigners who will be on
the ground and ready to mate up with
the Belgian.
Manager MacF arland is sorely per-
picked as to who to choose for Linart,
although 1t will be either Maurice
Coombes, the Englishman, or one of
the riders who will arrive Saturday
on the Touraine. Colombatti, the
Italian Splinter, and Julian Provost,
the French sprinter, who rode here
last year, are on the French liner and,
while they are coming without q con-
tract, Manager MacFarland feels that
ne should take care of both of them
by putting them in the race, but with
such big field already signed, one of
the late arrivals will be on the out
side.
Little Vincenzo Madonna, the Ital-
Ian, has been dropped from the race.
Madonna did not show we'll enough in
the Boston race to satisfy MacFar-
land that he Is capable of going
through the big race. All OF the other
teams. which we're announced IN the
Evening Star some time ago, remain

BROWN TARGET FOR
STURDY GRADWELL
Local Lightweight Administers
Decisive Drubbing to New
York Fighter.

Young Gradwell has improved won-
derfully and Knockout Brown has
gone back somewhat That accounts
for the local youths decisive victory
in ten rounds at the Olympic A. g,
Olympic Park, last night, over the
once sturdy New Yorker. Gradwen
cut Browns face to pieces by his
consistent jabbing. He used both
hands to perfection. while Brown, IN
the other hand, after losing the sight
of his right eye in the third round,
was content to swing wildly, TO con-
meet only on rare occasions. 1t was
the third meeting between Brown
and Gradwell and as Brown had
been the victor in two previous
bouts, Gradwell was out for revenge.
He secured it and in a most artistic
manner.
Gradwell fought so well last night
that few boxers of his weight would
have been able to hold their own
against him. In the fifth round
Gradwell caught Brown mapping and
a right to the Jaw sent the New
Yorker to the mat. He was up in
a jiffy, however, but he welcomed
the bell. Again in the eighth session
Gradwell had Brown in an almost
helpless condition. He was holding
on the ropes, but Gradwell failed to
finish him. 1t was the consensus Of
opinion that had the contest gone
much longer Gradwell would have
probably earned the honors by q
knockout.
Gradwell did the forcing from the
start of the first gong and held the
lead until the final. In every round
he jabbed, blocked and lodged. He
was in better shape than at any time
during his career and he came out
of the contest without a mark, after
the bout. Brown had a bad right
optic, a cash over his right temple
and a badly pulled countenance.
Gradwell used right uppercut to
perfection throughout the bout and IN
addition to his left and right straight
jabbing, had Brown in a bad way In
more than one instance. From the
very start, Danny Morgan, manager
of Brown, made an effort to get
GradwelPs goat. Gradwell was for
merly under the management of
Morgan. Morgan. though. was sorely
fooled for whenever Willie got t.
his man in Browns corner he simply
handed out a series of blows that
made even Battling Levinsky, who
was at the ringside, sit up and take
notice.
The seni-windup between Tommy
Hogan and Sammy Clark had a sud
den ending. Clark had a fair lead IN
| the first round and as the boxers
came out in the second session. they
| fell into elinch. Both accidently
fell from the ring with Clark on tor
Of Hogan. The latter was knocked
out for few moments, but was soor
revived. He was unable to continue
