Shipments to Exceed

Over 800 Cars
Especial to The Herald.l

SAN BENITo, Tex, Sept. o.
First estimates OF the amount Of
citrus fruit the Lower Rio Grande
Valley will ship during the season
which opens October l indicate that
an increase Of between 500 and 500
cars is being expected by packers.
Davis Wade Of Wade and New
ton, Valley shippers with head
quarters here, stated Thursday tnat
total shipments Of Valley citrus
fruit during 1929 season viii be
between 1000 and 1900 cars as COM
pared to 200 cars Of last season.
Although the acre yield is slightly
less than last year, there is an in
creased acreage in bearing trees, it
was stated.
Although the acre commercial yield
will be slightly smaller due 70 the
fact that only perfect fruit will be
shipped out Of the Valley. there is
an increased acreage in bearing
trees which will increase the total.
individual growers will be shipping
out less fruit in single boxes, due TO
regulations. thus providing for the
moving of the greater part of the
citrus crop through the car lot
route.
All fruit shipped from the Valley
will be required to come up 20
standard size and appearance as
well as sugar content. Wade said,
thus assuring first quality fruit on
the markets.

Local Dopesters
Forecast Outcome

Here's what a few Of those
who know the game thing about
the probable outcome OF the
Dempsey-Tunney battle at Sol
dier Field Stadium Thursday
night.
Sailor Haines, boxer. match
maker, and referee for local
encounters-"Pve got it doped
out that Dempsey will win. He
is going to fight Tunney like
he did Willard, because he Is
fighting to gain something,
and not to hold II. He is in
better condition than when he
fought Tunney before"
Ben Freudenstein, sportsman,
one time manager and promot-
er, for many years a follower
of the game-"I pick Tunney to
win mainly becuse Jim Corbert
picks him to lose. And also be-
cause think Tunney is the
better mamie proved 1t in
their last fight, and ! think
he'll beat Dempsey more thor
oughly this time than he did
before-but / don't think there
will be n knockout"
Frank Rubarth, coach Of the
Brownsville High football team,
and former Centre College
grid starr think Dempsey
will win easily"

CITY LEAGUE GAMES
Most Important Game Of First
Round to be Played Tomorrow
Between Pirates and Burritts.

The most important game of the
first round of the City baseball
league will be played tomorrow
afternoon when the undefeated Pr
rates meet the unbeaten Burritts for
first place. Both teams have bowled
over their early opposition, the Bur-
ritts perhaps little easier than their
rivals, but the Pirates have a slight
advantage over the champions by
reason of their victory last week and
the stopping of the Burritt game by
rain. The contest, which will be
played at 2 o'clock on Diamond No.
2, is expected to draw the largest
crowd of the season
The Rangers, now showing signs
of life after a poor start, will play
the cellar champs, the Tabs, at the
same hour on Diamond No. /. This
game should be easy for the Rang
err s.although the Tabs are beginning
to develop and may give trouble. At
4 o'clock the West Ends and Speed
boys will meet on Diamond No. in
what should be a battle between
veteran hitting power and youthful
speed.
The Golfers and American Legion
will play Junior City league game
at 4 o'clock on Diamond No. 2.

SHARkEY PLANNING
TO fight PAULINE
Boston Fighter Believes Knock
out Blow Was a Foul

New York. July % P>-Undaunt-
ed by his knockout at the smuggling
hands of Jack Dempsey, but fper-
sistent in his belief that the telling
blow was foul, Jack Sharkey will set
out after a few weeks rest to fight
his way back to the fistic heights
from which he has fallen for the
present.
Pauline Uzcudun, the sturdy young
Spanish conaueror of Harry Wills,
will be his next foe in a bout to be
held in New York in about two
his manager, John Buckley, mater
iallze.
Still certain he "can lick Jack
Dempsey" Sharkey today was firm
in the opinion he would have won
but for the manner Of Dempseys at
tack.
Sharkey's face and body bore lit
tie evidence of the pile driving force
Of Dempsey's blows. He suffered no
apparent ill effects from the disput-
ed body punch which helped to send
him down.
Dempsey's attack was conferred
about his hips, Sharkey said, and on
more than the one occasion in the
seventh round, the bombardment
dropped below the waist line.
While believing his fighter was
fouled half dozen times Buckley
said he would not appeal the de-
cision.
The referees word is final" he
said, and turned to plans for the
Pauline fight. which he expects will
be staged in Madison Square Garden
late in September about the time
Tunney and Dempsey are to meet
for the title.
In the meantime, the Boston box
er will seek solace and renewed
nerve force in a fishing trip in the
interior of Nova Scotia.
Leaving New York about noon to-
day. he intends to drive home to
Boston with no one but Mrs. Sharkey
accompanying him.
The fighters first thought upon
leaving the ring a beaten man was
of his wife and family. Two small
children-both girls-await them in
Boston.
While the battle was being waged
last night, Mrs. Sharkey sat alone in
their hotel room in upper Broad
way.
First news Of her husbands down.
fall came to her family in the
shouts of newsboys in the street be-
low:
Dempsey wins by knockout"
A fast automobile carried Sharkey
to her through way cleared by po-
lice outriders There We're tears in
the eyes of both when they met, and
their friends left the two alone.

manager, "a big clean kid"

st .Stanislaus Team in League
Game Sunday.

The Pirates will clash with the
strong st. Stanislaus nine of Meriden

game Sunday afternoon in Meriden.
The Saints are travelling along at a
high pace, and, at the present time

pense of the Saints. The Pirates have
practiced three nights this week in
preparation for the game. "Huggy"

this year with his long string of VIC
tories, will take the mound for the
Corsairs with "Butsy" Hall on the
receiving end. ED" Williams, Nor
wich college star. will be held in re-
serve. Johnny Sheehan will again
appear with the Pirates, probably at
second base. Beagle, Wier and Char
low will also be seen in action Sum-
day with the Pirates.
The Saints will send Buckley to
the mound and the locals will have
to travel fast If they hope to beat
him. He is rated as one of the best
pitchers in the Silver city and holds
victory over the Pirates from the
1925 season which the present team

WRITER'S STATE
FOUL WAS STRUCK
New York Herald. Tribune Says
It Was a Strange Fight

New York, July % P-Although
the referee, Jack O'Sullivan, de-
clared the punch was fair, a ma
jority of sports writer's whose
opinions were reflected in metropoli-
tan newspapers today apparently
considered that Jack Dempsey
landed a low blow just before he
knocked out Jack Sharkey with a
left to the chin.
The New York Times says Demp-
sey's accomplishment was disputed
by many who saw the test" and will
hold the belief that Dempsey should
have been disqualified on foul"
The Herald-Tribune in one ac-
count, refers to two foul punches"
by Dempsey, ito which Jack O'Sul-
livaa, the referee, paid no attention,
although they were delivered a
good eight inches below the belt.
The same paper adds in another
story:
1T was strange fight as strange
as the rumors that were flying
through the stadium when it started,
as strange as the shifting of the odds
that made Dempsey the favorite be-
fore the two men entered the ring.
All the circumstances We're start
ling, not to say peculiar"
The World says the right to Shar-
keys body did seem to be close to
the belt" but points out that the
referee refused to allow claim of
foul and that the official physician
of the boxing commission found no
evidence of injury.
The American suggests that
Dempsey adopted the old frontier
code Ito shoot first and argue after
ward" but its observers passed no
definite opinion on the location of
the disputed blow.
