If Walker proves skittish then the
chances are Fugazy will lose his most
attractive bout, the one qualified to
count most in drawing the crowd.
Why won't Mickey Walker sign to
meet Shade? Surlev if he is the fight
er every one says he is he ought not
to fear the Californian. In the past
Mickey has suffered from inartistic
managing, but when he got Jack
kearns 1t looked as though his fences
would be mended and he would make
heavy capital out of his undoubted
popularity.
But promises have not been full
filled. Walker has developed a sore
toe, and while neither Kearns nor
Walker was to blame for this, it came
at a mighty bad time. especially when
1T was known that Mickey was due to
receive only $40, 900 for this battle
and Greb 40 grand
As for the Greb- Shade fight, there
is no rush Of big promoters for this
speckled plum. Tom McArdle of the
Queensboro Stadium has bid for it
and thinks at maximum price of
Sl1 seat he could fill his arena But
he is the only optimistic promoter that
has appeared so far, and his S11 top

we'll remember a special best ball
match which Barnes and ! played

from start to finish. When the 36
holes were completed we were all
even. The big gallery. in state
of great excitement, followed us to
the tee OF the first extra hole ex-
pecting a real thrill.
Well, those who hoped that Jim
and I would win were soon in deep

The first hole at Hollywood meas

fortunately, put his tee shot into a
deep bunker we'll down the fairway
and had to pick up. I got a good
drive, but my second was too strong
and I went over the green and into

Meanwhile both Sarazen and
Hutchinson were on the green in
two, with one Of them bound to
make a par 4. With Jim out of 1t.
