The best features Of Mr.. Fugazyt
are few and inclined to be little
funny, but one of them is duly
recognized contract on Max
Schmeling and another four
way option on Victorio Campolo,
and, with the aid of these, Mr..
ItFugazy has been able to PROSTATE
the heavyweight situation while
doing himself no personal good all
day long.
If ne sells out to the Garden
and some say the deal already has
been closed for $75,000-the
former will take monopolistic
charge Of New York boxing for
the first time since Richards
death. And from the Gardens
standpoint the gesture can't come
too soon. What with the way Chi
cago and other points have been
cutting into the local play on fea-
ture matches.
The Garden has been licked
plenty In its attempts to play
the game the way Rickard did
IL. IL figured to stay licked
unless Il could find q way to
separate Schmeling from all
the weinerschnitzeI In Berlin.
The reported sale by Fugazy
is it.
, According OF It's reputed terms.
the Scot t-Schmeling contract,
which ran the latter out Of
America, is to go with the deal
so, they say, do four contracts
on Campolo'S services and the
managerial contract Of Gustavo
Leneve, which ran Campolo so
far south that Commander Byrd
won't be able to find him before
the spring freshets. These fight
ers, you know, can't forgive a
manager for all they do to him.
Anyhow, If the transaction
really turns out to be a transac-
tiofla the Garden win control four
of the ranking five heavyweightss
with a fair chance Of lining up
the fifth, Otto Won Porat.
They have Sharkey, of course. 4
Recently, they took title to Phil
Scott. Now, unless the boxing
commission can figure some way
OF putting the bowSer on the
thing, they are said to be about
to take over Schmeling and Cam
polo. OF course, Schmeling may
decline to be taken over. He is
very unreasonable about being
taken, even by experts, and SO
may decide to string with the
reported offer of $250,0O0 from
Atlantic City. That is a lot of
money even if you never count
it,; and, besides, he won't have
to fight Phil Scott to get it.
Whereas, the Scott t-Schmeling con-
tract no doubt still. goes In this
State, regardless of who holds 1t.
The commission has declared
for Scott rs Schmeling's next
opponent and he probably
win be Schmeling'S next Op-
ponent II they have to trun.
die him in there on an Op.
Grating table.
This contingency never would
have occurred to me If Mr.. Scott
himself hadn't made it possible.
He has agreed to meet Mr.. Won
Pofat here on December 8.
The Garden, in any event,
would find itself with quite a
leverage on Schmeling If it
closes a deal with Fhgazy. II
would mean thst it held all the
strings in this State and this
young man perforce must come
here sooner or later In an effoit
TO do himself all the good ne can.

SURVEY BRINGS HALT
TO WASTE OF G0PHERS
100. 900 Tails Testify to Success of
Drive Against En- emies of
Arizona Farms.

PHOENIX, Ariz PA queer little
ratlike animal cost the farmers of
Arizona thousands of dollars annually
until the United States Biological Sur
vey stepped in.
Now the survey workers, of which
there are a dozen or more with head
quarters at Phoenix, have built up a
trophy pile of nearly 100000 enemies
tails, evidence of animals trapped in
the campaign. Perhaps twice that
number have been poisoned.
The animal is commonly known as a
pocket gopher because of his jaw pock-
cts. In these he places the dirt he digs
and carries 1t TO the surface to get it
and comes to the surface only to throw
up mounds of dirt removed from his
Subterranesn runways.
Although harmless TO humans, the
pocket gopher is highly destructive of
growing things. His great concave
front teeth cut through the largest Of
roots or trees. If the wood pulp suits his
taste. He is fond OF cutting off the
roots of rosebuSheS, ornamental shrubs.
palm trees and damaging fruit bearing
crops.
Frequently he builds his subterranean
streets and highways under mans auto
mobile roads and inevitably a cave-in
occurs, leaving dangerous chuck"
hole in which to break car wheels and
springs.
Kidding the farms Of these pests has
proved a problem not alone in Arizona
but in other Western States as well.
The Biological Survey, however. has had
marked success. both with poison and
with spring traps, and 1t gradually is
getting the upper hand.

Each Buyer; Athletes Map Plans.

baseball fans in the middle west,
who desire to see the Athletics and
the Cubs square off for the first
battle in the world series at
Wrigley Field, Oct. 8.
Veeck and his associates have
ic-ued stringent regulations cal
culated to head off scalpers and
they have closed their office to the
public until after the first two
games are played here.
Issued by Drawing
Tickets will be issued, not in the
order in which applications are
received, but by drawing, and
each purchaser must sign an agree
ment binding himself not to resell
the ducats. Notwithstanding these
precautions, predictions are made
freely that those possessing paste
boards may exchange them for $50
per copy, even before anyone re-
ceives his numbered card.
Although the advance notice,
published in all the Chicago papers,
stipulates that no more than two
tickets will be issued to one party,
thousands probably will fall into
the hands Of spectators.
Although not admitting it openly,
the Cubs fear Lefty Grove and the
prospect of facing him twice in the
series does not tend to increase their
confidence.
Grove VS.. Malone
The Cubs are almost certain Of
facing Grove in the opening game
here. His opponent probably will
be Pat Malone, a hurley hurler serv-
ing his second year in the majors.
Bush seemed to have drawn the
opening assignment, but his work
in his last two starts has been I'M
impressive. in view of his lofty p0-
sition as Cub ace and leading hurler
Of his circuit.
The betting men will give even
money and you take your choice on
the first game, even though Grove
will be in the box. This probably is
due to the psychological advantage
the home team will enjoy in the
first game.

Stars Perform.
BY WILLIAM J. DUNN,
United Press STAFF Correspondent

FOREST HILLS, N. Y, Sept. IL.
-Four fine tennis players were
doomed to defeat today as the mems
national singles championship
reached the quarter-fnal round.
Seven Americans and one Briton
remained of the ninety representa-
tives of six nations who started play
last Saturday, and every one of the
eight was entitled to consideration
as a championship possibility.
Bill Remains Favorite
First there was Bill Tilden, color
full champion from 1920 through
1925, who faced John Van Ryn, able
player from East Orange, N. j. Til
den is aging, but he still controls
enough shots to make himself the
most feared man in the tournament
and the favorite for the title.
Van Ryn has proven his ability,
principally as member of the Amer
lean Davis cup doubles team. I'm
less Tilden shows more class than
in his victory over Frank Shields
Tuesday, Van Ryn held a fair
chance of winnir 9.
Faces Britisher
John Doeg of Santa Monica faced
his hardest assignment of the tour
nament in Bunny Austin, BritainS
leading player.
Doeg can serve as fine a service
as any man in the game, together
with the ability to place controlled
power behind his strokes. Should he
stop Austin, his chances of g. place
in the finals would be excellent.
In the lower bracket Wilmer ALI
son has succeeded George Lott as q
logical favorite through a merited
victory over Lott in the third round.
He was to play Fritz Mercur today.
Mercur was doped to lose, but can
rise to great heights at times.
Hunter VS.. Williams
Frank Hunter, newspaper publish
er, and r. Norris Williams, the only
other champion in competition, are
the seventh and eighth. Hunter last
year forced Cochet to five sets in
the finals of this tournament and
confidently expects to meet his friend
Tilden for the title Saturday.
Williams has slipped a long way
since he held his titles in 1914 and
1916.
