GRAHAM MEETS
SCHWARTZ FOR

Bushy Favored to Defeat Fly.

Field Tonight

New York, May 23.-lP)-With
recognition as bantamweight cham
pion awaiting the winner, Bushy
Graham, spidery-legged Utica, N.
Y, battler end Icy Schwartz, state
flyweight title-holder, clash over the
15-round route at Ebbets Field,
Brooklyn tonight.
Holding a decisive edge physical
~, Graham was an odds-on fayorite
to batter his tiny rival into defeat
and win recognition as king of the
118 Founders from the national
boxing association and the New
York state athletic commission.
Much smaller in every way,
Schwartz is further handicapped in
his quest for a double.title by the
fact that under the commission rules
be must make his f,yweight class
limit Of 112 pounds. Graham prob
ably will scale close to the Bantam
limit.
The bantamweight throne has
been more or less vacant since Char
ley (Phil) Rosenberg, of New York,
forfeited his kingship by coming in
overweight for a title match with
Graham more than a year ago. The
national boxing association did rec
ognize Bud Taylor, the Terre Haute
terror, as the legitimate successor
until q few days ago when it de-
cided to drop Taylor and recognize
the winner Of the Schwartz Graham
battle as worthy Of the diadem.
Taylor, the N. B. A. felt, had for
feited the crown by his failure to
defend it.

MECHANICAL ISSUE
TO TEST SKILL OF
AUTO SPEED KINGS.
Front and Rear Wheel Cars to
Match Values at Indian.
apolis Race

New York, Nay 23.-(AP)-It
may not be Of startling concern to
the average motorist whether or
not he has front or rear wheel
drive but this mechanical issue hap
pens to be vital just now to dozen
or two speed kings who will match
their dare-deviltry and speed l.. the
50O-mile international sweepstakes
at Indianapolis on Memorial day
The argument between the rival
camps is so hot that it likely will
result in a record breaking race for
the premier long distance honors of
American tracks.
Steve flanagan, who does light
and heavy exporting in motor boats
and heavyweight champions as we'll
as automobiles, admits it, Steve was
there when they built the Indian
apolis speedway and, as Carl Fish
er's energetic agent, he has heard
the motors roar ever since He con-
centretes on the speed demons only
as relaxation between responsible
ties as director Of public relations
for Gene Tunney
1.-THE Indianapolis race this year
will be a great battle between the
front and rear wheel drive boys"
says Steve 1.-The betting il more on
a basis Of which shows up the best
than on which will win. The 'front.'
wheel drive pilots are betting they
will tear off the fastest trials and
thus get the front positions in the
starting lineup but the rear-wheel
boys are wagering they will be out
in front before the first five-mile
lap is completed.
II would not be surprised to see
the 50O-mile record knocked off. It
was set at 101.13 miles per hour in
1925 by Peter De Paolo, a nephew
Of Ralph De Palma, in a machine
that had q rear wheel drive. Frank
Lockhart holds the record for the
fastest lap, 1901 miles per hour,
and that, too, may be busted next
week."

Tex Richard Realizes
$4,000 on Title Go

New York, May 23.-(AP)-In-
stead of deficit, Tex Richard has
been agreeably surprised to find out
that ne realized a profit of about
$4,000 on the much-postponed bout
that saw Sammy Mandell ward off
Jimmy McLarnin's bid for the
Rockford Sheik's" lightweight title.
Revised figures, said Richard,
show that 20,410 fans paid to see
the bout, for gross receipts Of $780,
564 far short Of the $25O,OOO the
promoter expected to pour into the
treasury. After deducting federal
and state taxes the receipts
amounted to $130,964. Mandell re-
ceived $49,111 or STA per cent, and
McLarnin $16,370, or 1917 per cent.
Other expenses left $4,000 as clear
profit, the promoter said.

OLYMPIC FIGHTS and FIGHTERS
BY "Spike" Webb
Omitted States Olympic Boxing Coach)

Annapolis, Nd, May 23.-(P)-
With the numbering boxing talent in
the American Olympic heavyweight
class selected Tor the international
tournament at Amsterdam in
August, it is difficult to imagine
who the foreign nations can place
forward as an outstanding contender
who might beat out the United
States for the heavyweight crown.
This country has pair Of slash
ing heavyweights who will journey
to Europe in the next few weeks,
and if they can't lift the crown from
Norway, which won the class honor
in 1924, then chances look glommy
Of it ever being moved from Scan
dinavia.
Otto Won Porat, the rugged Nor
wegian, who has graduated into pro-
fessional ranks and has put up some
stellar fighting in America during
the past few months, won the Olym-
pic title four years ago, and In
formation from northern Europe in
dicates that Norway has groomed q
fine array Of heavyweights to take
his place this year in their effort
to hold the crown.
But with George Hoffman Of New
York primed to hold up this coun-
try's end Of the heavyweight Olym-
pic fight, ] am not disturbed ct
what the outcome may be, for the
metropolitan boxer can hand out
terrific larruping Is we'll a. take
what some extraordinarily smart
foreigner may suddenly hand out.
Hoffman, m 18-year-old young
ster weighing close to 200 pounds,

and take all the way-but it was
Hoffman's experience and general
ship that brought him the honor
to represent America in the heavy
weight class at the Olympics, with
the California educator" going
along as an alternate on the team
to fill any emergency that might
arise.
Stepping down one weight, the
United States assuredly has the
original TX. o. baby" in Leon Lu-
cas-, light heavyweight Of Philadel-
phia, who crashed to q victory in
the national championship by win
ming five consecutive bouts at Bos-
ton over the Knockout route.
And when Lucas let the boys
taste the resin there wasn't any
doubt about the count-and there
was no mistake about the Quaker
City boys intention when he let
that outside right hand hook fly.
When the vicious drop-hammer
came crashing through, careful de-
fensive fighting didn't mean any
thing because there was nothing to
stop that blow.
Lucas ID much the Tommy Lough-
ran style Of fighter, only from my
observation Of the Philadelphia
youngster I'd say that he has more
punching power than the world,a
light heavyweight champion. Com
.bined with this punching ability,
Lucas is shifty fighter, md : fast
