HOLMAN AND Levine
IN SPORTLAND BOUT

Charlie Holman of Richmond will
face a rugged opponent in Billy Levine
of Brooklyn in the twelve-round feature
bout at the Sportland Heights boxing
arena, Berwyn, Md, Thursday night.
The Brooklyn mauler has made an
impression against Carl Tremaine. Mid
get Smith, Pal Moore, Bud Taylor,
Young Montreal and Abe Goldstein- The
Richmond leather pusher, however, also
has an enviable record, having pointed
the way to ex-Champion Kid Williams.
Joe Ryder, Patsy Wallace, joey
Schwartz and Earl Puryear.
Irish Johnny Fagin, flyweight cham
pion of the Army, and Manuel Soriano
of the Reina Mercedes ship will be op-
ponents in the eight-round semi final.
Fagin is remembered for his whirlwind
performance against Young Dencio last
summer at Sportland-
special bout of six rounds and two
four-round openers will be announced
later, according to Matchmaker Les

EGGLESTON AND ROTH
WILL BOX WEDNESDAY

A real slugging match is in pros
pect at Washington barracks, Wed
nesday night between Johnny Jumbo
Eggleston of Mohawk Athletic Club
and Charley Roth. These middle
weights are earnest scrappers who
can give and t@ke Eggleston is
somewhat of s freak type of boxer.
He is only fv: feet two inches tall,
but has a reax Of seventy-five inches
and can step around the ring fast
In Roth, Eggleston will tackle a
tough customer. The former recently
lost a close decision to Bob Merit,
middleweight champion of the Army,
and fought Renzo to a draw.
Rain will not prevent Wednesdays
match, as IL did last week. Should
weather conditions prevent the use
of an outdoor ring the bout will be
staged under cover.

has seen races everywhere else in
the United States, at the New

at Longchamps in France, but never

They couldn't. 1t is estimated by
some observers there were $4,000 per-
sons at the Derby. Not a third of
these could get anywhere near the
betting machines. Yet their enthu-
siasm knew no bounds.
Crowd Cheers Every Move.
They cheered when the bugle blew
for the Derby. They cheered when
the horses first appeared on the
track. They cheered as the nineteen
starters lined up at the barrier. They
cheered when the cry went up.
cheered when Black Gold. the hope of
Kentucky and all the west, went jam

Mrs. Sherley sat in the lounge
room of the clubhouse with little
kerchief of old lace drawn above her
snow white hair and through a black
speaking tube she heard all that was
going on, the Jockeys, the odds and
all the rest. She was keen and
alert Two grandnieces always were
at her side The Derby meant much
to her. 1T was her tradition as well
as that of the Kentucky Jockey Club,
and yet to Mrs. Sherley there were
other things besides the horses.
She was amazed at the fashions
that she saw about her-the fiowered
