Richards, Comeback Box
er, in Semi Wind-up.

Next Thursday night at the ARM
DRY, Blocky Richards, Dayton, Ohio,
will meet Joe Paglina of Louisville
in the ten-round semi-windup, and
the Dayton boy writes Captain
Clark, Legion match maker, that he
believes he is in the best shape Of
his life.
. Paglina will be fighting to erase
from the memory OF fans a former
defeat here, so there should be
plenty of flashing fistss
Two years ago the boxing world
was showing keen interest in the
flstic feats of Richards, a fiashy
youngster who was taking on all
corners with a lot of success. Fifty
two fights in one year. with an ag-
gregate earning of $4,000 in that
time, was - record set by Richards.
And then the bright lights beckoned.
Three months ago. at Dayton,
Richar Is. right back where lie start
ed financially, started in hard train
ing for a Comeback. EscheWing
all his "good-time" friends, Blocky
went at his conditioning work as
hard as he ever did in those other
days Of success. Since starting all
over again Richards has engaged n
five scraps and won them all.

VANCE's POOR DEBUT

ga ORKJNG in the first series Oh
W the year against the Boston
W. Braves, Vance was touched
for seven runs and nine hits in six
innings. He retired in the seventh
for pinch hitter.
During his stay on the rubber
Vance struck out only two men, an
indication he didn't have the usual
stuff on his fast ball.
Can it be the great "Dazzy" has
passed the peak of his game? The
experts in National League circles
seemed to be of that opinion last
wear when Vance failed to strike his
real stride at any time during the
season.
True, Vance is "a years of age,
and a majority of pitchers are
through at that stage Of life. How
ever, Walter Johnson and Grover
Cleveland Alexander are still pretty
fair twirlers and they have hit the
40 mark.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1927-04-25

Remembering RObinsOn's conf
ment in the South, it struck me
that Vance's first start must have
been mighty disappointing.
