The wonder Boys club quintet of this city completelys routed the Pi- rates of tho Downtown Boys club, Newark, N. J., in that city last night. the final score being 56-24. The Jersey city crew, which had not met its match all season and had added victim after victim to it's list, found its peer at last In Captain Mike Luke's whirlwind speedsters and went down before heavy bombard. ment, in which Luke himself was the chief gunner. The club warriors, on the longest trip made by any local team this year, covered themselves with glory by completely outplayine their opponents in every department and rolling up it's second largest score of the season.
 Captain Luke played his usual stellar game, locating the hoop Ii times. from the floor and four from the free-throw strip. Pete Kerelejza showed great return to form and piled up 16 points, while Ray Ander. son Tipped in quartet of field goals Arburr despite his injured leg, play. ed remarkable guarding game, while Nyborg, Aronson, and Fresen also had their part in keeping the home teams score down.

 The boys celebrated the victory to- day by seeing the sights of New York city, where 1t is reported that Luke will drop few in from the Wool worth tower, Tonight they will put up at the Newark club, where they spent last night, and tomorrow will ind them doing the big city oncs more.

New York, March 7.-Though Sammy MandeIl, 21 year old light weight pugilist, Is not taking part in the elimination tournament to de- eide a successor to Benny Leonard he must nevertheless be reckoned with in the 133-pound division.
 Fast is. Mandell today stacks up as one of the best men in the sec ton. His rather surprising defeat of Sid Ferris recently stamped him as a ringster of promise.
 Ferris had been picked by most of the experts to hand Mandell a beating. But the latter left no ques- ton as to the relative merits of the two boys by decisively trimming Ferris. It was in the nature of q real upset
 When Mandell returned to Rock ford, III, his home short time ago, the entire community turned out to pay him homage. From the mayor down they came and Mandel was paraded through the streets and feted by various civic organza- tions hefitting a real hero.
 Mandell has been in the ring paStime since 1920. He boasts a good record, having beaten some of of the best boys in the lightweight class. Moreover, he seems to be i'm proving all the time.
 Mandel shapes lip as one of the best prospects at 135 pounds the game has produced in some years. And since his triumph over Ferris experts are touting him strongly and predicting that he stands an excel lent chance to wear Leonard's old crown as lightweight king.
 A match between Mandell and the winner Of the elimination tourney for the. championship now looms across the boxing horizon. And it wouldn't be at all surprising if such a bout were staged in the not too distant future.

DEMPSEY STARS
 WITH N. '. BOARD Argument Over Suitable Oppo.
 nent for Jack

New York, March 7.--Jack Demp- sey and the New York state athletic commission are sparring for an opening in an, unheralded match, with the august solons Of the Elm pire state broadcasting their punches across the continent in a brave but careful manner, and the boxing pub lie is refereeing the match.
 From out of the Atlantic sea- board yesterday came left jab at Dempsey's crown. It was just a tan talizing jab which carried message to the heavyweight king from the New York commission that he would stand right up and say, within g4 hours, wether he would like to ac- cept challenge thrown at him by Harry Wills giant negro heavy weight.
 At the same time right hook followed the jab which explained that after he has carefully consid- cred the Wills matter he might take cognizance of the fact that Tommy Gibbons has also mailed a fist at him which he would like the titleholder to look over with q view of making a bargain later on after he has disposed of the Wills chal- lenge.
 Jack Kearns, who guides the busi- | ness destinies of his celebrated champion, parried the two blows with an uppercut which f1atly told the New York commission that il should play in its own yard and not trespass as Dempsey would moi be dominated by any body of men unless they wanted to promote Q fight for him.
 The dictum to Dempsey was the first official act taken by the com. mission after it's reorganization meeting today in which James A Farley of Stony Point, N. Y, was elected chairman of the commission to succeed George F. Brewer, whc has held the office since last Janu. ary. Commissioner Brewer did moi attend the meeting and in a state ment made later claimed the cleo ton was illegal as Tuesday was the regular meeting day and that Fri day was not day for rcorganiza l tiOn
