Few bali players are of any great

Most boxers have passed the peak
of their career at 35. Perhaps 80

Jack Britton at 81 seems to be go

reason Britton is regarded as the

MIL LWAUKEE BOWLER SETS
NEW WORLD RECORD

A new worlds record has been es-
tabMshed in bowling
On February at Madison. Wis
consin, in the singles event of the
Wisconsin state tournament, Herbert
Ewald of Milwaukee rolled total
of 7SS
Previous to Ewald's performance,
the best score in state or national
events was 7S7. This record was held
by another Milwaukee bowler, Wally
swift, who established his mark in
1919.
Ewald gave a consistent per-
Torrance. getting 247 in his first
game, 244 in the second and coming
right back with 247 in the final
game.
Ewald had only one break IN the
series. 1t came in the second frame
of the second game. when he picked
the number pin off the number 3.
In the tenth frame of the fina
game a perfect hit left the 10 pir
standing. That was the crucial mo-
ment of the entire series.
Ewald needed that ten pin spare e
set a new record. He made 1t witt
ease. He proved that he had the
nerve of a champion.

George Adams Is

ans is accompanied by his manager,
Max Present, also of Chicago.
George weighs 116 pounds, is %

ties to his credit For size he ranks

shows bouts with Young Joe Brown,
AL Grunan, Ralph Lincoln, Joe Cof-

REGAN Rooney;
JIMMY KRAMER
AND CAMP BELL:
MONDAY NIGHT
MONDAYS BOXING CARD
Jack Resan VS.. Jack Rooney
10 Rounds
Jimmy Kramer VS.. Dick Campbell
Rounds
Dudley Dill vs.. Cactus Brown
4 Rounds
Rufus II VS.. Wildcat Johns
4 Rounds

The Legion boxing card for next
Monday night is complete with a
double main event to entertain the
cash customers and the boys who
crash the gate.
The double bill brings together a
pair of Jacks in ten frames and Kra-
mer and Campbell in six more. The
Legion matchmaker predicts he will
draw a fun house with this card.
Local boxers aspire to main events
and the best way to satisfy them is
to give them a match. Mike wanted
a main eYent--he got it--and he made
good. Campbell now wants to break
into fast company and his hackers
predict he win beat Jimmy Kramer.
Jimmy has been loafing for two
weeks and he is willing to help get
rid OF the home town champs II they
crave action.
Dudley Dill is a new addition to
the local game Dill is a home prod
uct, having received his fistic edu-
cation in the Alger- -Carnes camp.
Carnes says Dudley will make good
in his first showing and he has
picked a tough egg to try him out.
In the final event One-round Re-
gan clashes with Jack Rooney of
Winslow, husky assortment OF bone
and sinew. Regan stopped Sailor
Pierce in 10 seconds, so the fans had
little chance to see what he can do.
He looks good hits hard and Is con-
fident. With his size and weight ne
needs little more and the fans VIII
see a fight.
Rooney halls from the northern
part Of the state where he has been
knocking off the heayies one, Two,
three. For size he matches well with
Regan and his training routine looks
well for big fellow.
He is quick with his hands ana nlts
hard. Jack Foster, who will be re-
membered for his quick kayo OF Blg
O'Brien, lost to Rooney In TOUR
rounds. Jack White Of Flagstaff leli
in four. Jack Rooney stopped Joe
Bartle in two minutes, not quite as
fast as Regan, but he trounced his
man in the two minutes they were IN
the ring. He beat Eddie Lewis OF
New York in ten fast rounds at
Winslow, just before coming 70
Phoenix.
Rooney. Dick Cody and Cactus
Brown are working at the sixteenth
street arena daily, while Regan, DICK
