Gentleman Jack
Signed For Bout
AT Vets Stadium

Matchmaker Mccoy of the Capital
City arena announces that he has
signed Jack Lynch to meet the best
middleweight he can get. Jack is
going good right now and in view of
the fact that he has never lost a
bout, Mccoy is anxious to match him
with the best he can get.
Several boys have asked for the
match, among them being FRANKIE
Murphy, the New Orleans middle
weight, who showed class in Ell Paso
recently by defeating Billy Conley.
Jack Boyd also wants a crack at
Lynch and promises TO stop the
Prescott lad. Russell Chambers of
Douglas, Bert Colima of Los Angeles,
and Tiger Johnny Kline are men,
toned among the possible opponents
for Arizonas middleweight champ.
The Tiger is training as he has not
trained in the last year in order to
condition himself for a chance to
meet Lyhcn again.
Billy Johnson, a crack middle
weight of Fort Smith, Arkansas who
has defeated Art McGirl, Tom Abbott,
Denver Bob York, and number of
other good boys, wired for match
down here.
Mccoy is taking his time about
hold the reputation established by
the Moore Griffin bout. One thing
certain--Gentleman Jack Lynch is
going to get another bout down here.
The fans like him and he always
fights. He has a deceiving style that
puts him over when he is "doped" to
come out on the short end.
Mccoy announces that he is ar
ranging to stage a number of clean
cut matches with plenty of action at
two-week intervals, with several big
cards looming in the future. Plans
are already under way to improve the
Sixteenth Street fight mill. More
gymnasium equipment will be in
stalled and plans have been mapped
out to have the arena covered before
winter.
The Lynch bout will be staged
some day next week, according to an
announcement by Mccoy last night.

TIRED BUSINESS MAN
CAN GET EXPERT RUB
At RIVERSIDE PARK

You have all heard stories with a
"kick" in 'em.--but here's one with a
rub in it, and it's a rub that every
man in town can get in on to his
own well being.
Having read the sport page occa-
sionaIly the majority of sport follow
ers have heard of Phil Moore. For
years Moore has been prominent in
athletic circles, an expert handler Of
leather pushers, and conditioner Of
men knowing no superior in the
country.
Right now Phil is engaged in the
gentle pastime of handling Billy AL
ger and Johnny Kline, both boys well
known to local fans, and thereon
hangs our story.
Richards &, Mace have made ar
rangements with Moore to work at
Riverside park every afternoon from
3 o'clock to o'clock for the ex-
press purpose of conditioning men.
And here's the big idea.
Moore started studying the human
anatomy when he was ID years of
age and as he advanced in his work
he paid especial attention to the eff
feet of local exercising of muscles
through rubbing, in the general
scheme of keeping the body fit.
Years of practical experience gained
through handling and conditioning
fighters. and his association with the
leading athletic stars, made Moore
one of the leading trainers in the
country today. Wherever athletics
are discussed Moore's name is prom
inently mentioned, and it is one of the
most important moves in months that
he has been retained by the Riverside
park management.
Phil says there are many business
men in Phoenix who should be hitting
on all cylinders at all times, but who,
through the confining nature of their
work, have grown sluggish, troubled
with that tired feeling, give way to
inaction and consequent premature
retirement from active service in the
commercial world.
Rickt.rds & Mace are planning the
installation of gymnasium at Riv-
erside park when the interest reaches
the point where a gym will prove of
real benefit.
The business mems athletic asso-
citation at Riverside park is open to
everyone. Phil Moore will be on the
ground for two hours every after
noon and will be open to service for
everyone interested
Moore is highly enthusiastic over
the prospects of the innovation.
When interviewed yesterday he
dwelled at length on the perfect
adaptability of Riverside park for the
work he is undertaking. There is
plenty of room for the workout, the
plunge is handy, the rubbing slab is
there, the shower, in fact every ac-
cessory for athletic training, and now
the services of an expert trainer
should bring out a steady stream of
pilgrims hitting the trail for that
Grand and Glorious Feeling"
Moore is on the ground now and
arrangements can be made at any
time to join the club. as well as as
signments for those who have but
limited time for their exercises. This
service is open to club members and
no initiation charge is made.

SLUCCERS FINDING
IT HARDER To HIT
SAFELY IN MAJORS
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased wlreJ

CHICAGO, June 10.--With warmer
weather and more work the major
league pitchers are hitting their
stride with the result that the slug
gers are finding it harder every day
to get the ball into safety. This 10
shown by the steady shrinkage dur
ing the past week or two in the bat
ting averages of such hitters as
George Sisler. Ty Cobb, iris Speak
er. Roger Hornsby and others.
The youngsters who set the league
afire in the first weeks of the sea-
son with .450 marks now are getting
back to their normal averages cf
.275 while Sisler and others, drop
ping more slowly, are rapidly getting
down to their usual records.
Sisler still tops the American
league batters today despite a drop
to .419 this week, the mark including
games of last Wednesday.
The late start and slow progress
made by Babe Ruth, the king OF swat.
to retain his honors, has encour-
aged other players to enter the COM
petition in the hope of topping the
Babe. Ken Williams of st. Louis
bagged another homer, bringing his
string to fourteen. Ruth has i've.
Ed Miller of Philadelphia is trailing

Walker of Philadelphia has nine.

First in war. first in batting. This
is the honor which has fallen to
Hank Gowdy of the Boston Braves
the first major league player to en-
list in the war. Today he is leading
the batters of the National league
with an average of .384; Gowdy Is
nine points ahead Of Bigbee Of Pitts

who are tied with .375 for the runner
up honors. Hornsby of st. Louis and

A physician was walking up Broad :

looking at some shirts in show
window. Just then a panhandler
stepped up to the dentist and began
to unravel a hard-luck story. To
the physicians astonishment the dem
tist lifted his hand to his ear and
said, raising his voice considerably:
"How's that? You'll have to speak
louder. I'm hard of hearing" The
panhandler hurried away, grumbling
to himself. The physician walked up
and laid his hand on the dentists

PHOENIX GIANTS To
MEET NOCALES TEAM
HERE NEXT SUNDAY

The Western Giants have booked
two games with the 25th Infantry
team for Sunday. June IS, and Mon
day. June 10.
The 25th Infantry team is recog-
nized as one OF the fastest ball clubs
on the border. with three star players
waiting for their discharge to join the
American Giants, the fastest colored
baseball club in America today.
The Phoenix Giants have been try
ing to land this team for the Eman-
cipation day program for some time.
but their efforts were fruitless until
Friday afternoon, when wire was
received accepting the terms offered.
The Giants are under heavy expense
in bringing this team to Phoenix with
16 players and an officer to enter
tain, pay hotel and travelling ex-
penses.
The local club has been reorgan-
lied and greatly strengthened through
the addition Of new third sacker
and the selection of wiz White az
field captain.
Wiz is recognized as the daddy"
OF Arizona moundsmen and when he
is given good support is practically
inyincible. White will take his reg
ular turn on the hill and guide the
destinies of the club from the bench
when not in the regular lineup. Wiz
may work both games against the in
fantry Sunday and Monday.
Third Baseman Rowlett Is the
snappiest infielder in the valley. He
gets away with a play equally as fast
as Butler of Mesa and can throw
harder than the Jewel star. Rowlett
has signed with the Chicago Giants
and will be on the regular big show
lineup next year. It's worth the gate
charge to see him cover the dizzy
corner and get rid Of the ball on .
fast play.
The Giants were going good the
early part of the season and then
blew up. The team was reorganized
and went out to Glendale last Sun
day, where they walked away with a
21 to 2 win over the Greys. The
Glendale club forced the Mesa team
to go IA innings to win and the Mesa
club is the fastest organization In the
valley.
The Giants Nogales game should
prove the class of the home team and
every man on the club is confident
Phoenix will win both games. Conf
dence goes long ways and with the
home boys popped up" to win the
fur will fly at Riverside park next
week.

LADIES WILL. BE
ADMIT TED FREE
TO MIKE DOYLE
SYLVESTER BOUT.

The American Legion Athletic
committee viii stage its first ladies'
night of the season at the Eighth
street arena tomorrow night when
one lady will be admitted free with
each paid admission. Twenty-eight
Erounds of boxing have been sched-
;uled, divided into three four-round
preliminary events, six round semi
final and q 10 round main event.
Young sylvester and Mike Doyle
win headline the Monday night card
Judging from their work at the train
ing camp, they will give fans one OF
the prettiest little fistic engagements
staged by the Legion in weeks.
Sylvester is confident that he can
stop the local boy within four rounds
and he has expressed himself In nc
uncertain terms on that score. What
will happen if he fails to do so. he
did not say, but fans who nave Deen
watching him work have noted that
he has been training as IL preparing
for more than four rounds of milling
Mike is equally confident that he
will emerge victorious over the Los
angeles hoy. Mike was keenly dis
appointed because he failed to stop
battling King in their bout at
Miami last Tuesday night and has
entered into his training for Syl-
Vester with added pep and vim.
Sylves is a good two-fisted light
weight If one is to judge from his
training. He hits from any angle
and his blows seem to carry a tre-
mendous force behind them. He
possesses a pretty left jab or hook, a
good right cross and a pretty upper
cut.
Mike will have two or three
pound weight advantage Monday
night but the Los Angeles boy be-
lieves his gr eater experience and
punching ability will more than Off
set that. Mike also has a little
reach over the coast battler but
otherwise, they stack up In good
shape.
The semi 1i-final event between
Young Arnold of Phoenix and Tiny
Refeld of Prescott IS attracting al
most as much interest as the main
event. Local fans are anxious to
see Arnold in action again. after his
long layoff, and they realize that a
good, tough opponent has been Sc
lected for him in the Prescott boy.
The first two meetings between
this pair developed as much fight
as any boxing bout ever staged in
Phoenix. Arnold and Refeld are
mighty shifty and the way they ex-
change wallops keeps the fans on the
edge of the seats.
& Arnold is hopeful that he Will
signalize his return to the fistic
arena by stopping Refeld within the
prescribed limit. 1t is his sole am
bition at this time and he says he
believes he can turn the trick within
three or four rounds. Those who
know Tiny are not so sure. however.
for they know that the Prescott boy
is as game and as willing as any
ever seen in action here.
Three other good events have been
arranged, the Legion matchmaker
announced last night. All prelim-
mary events will be at four rounds.
All principals will hold their final
workouts at the Eighth Street arena
this afternoon, beginning at 5 o'clock.
Billy Alger, also is working out
daily at the Eighth Street arena, get
ting ready for his proposed July 4
bout with Mike Doyle. Final ar
rangements for this bout already
have been made, according to the
Legion matchmaker.
