HEAVYWEIGH7S 10
 BATTLE TONIGHT
LouShran and Sharkey to Meet
 in Yankee Stadium Bout

New York. Sept. 26, U'P) There will be a fight at Yankee Stadium tonight to decide who is the best American heavyweight.
 Jack Sharllcy of Boston has been recognized as such since Gene Tun- ncy forfeited the title, but now there has come q young man from phila- delphia, a graduate of the 175- pound division. who wishes to try accounts with the loquacious Lith- uanian.
 Tommy Ioughran. long the cham pion Of the light hcavywcights, moves up tonight into the unlimited division with q challenge to Sharkcy which will be answered in 15 rounds at the big ball park up in the Bronx with some 10000 cash customers in attendance.
 So much has been made of the fact thath since Tmncy'G retirement foreign hcavywoights have virtually controlled the sccne-and the market that tonight's fray is of special in tcrest to American fight fans.
 The worlds heavyweight cham pionship is not involved, but the American championship certainly is.
 Popular sentiment has made Tom my LouEhran q slight favoritc in the betting over Sharkey, but the proper odds should be even money. The BoStonian never has proved himself -n Ia Of cba n, roi op cbj,, calibnt. bi,t certainly his record against the most effective fighters of the age has been better than that of his slightcr Op- poncnt.
 Madison Square Garden, which is promoting tOnight's bout, stood 10 loose money when il was first an nounCcd The affair is substitute for one arranged between Sharkey and Max SChmoiing of Germany. The latter ran out" on Sharkey, and Loughran stepped in. confident of his ability 10 hold his own against the Bostonian.
 For the Schmcling fight, the Car den had guaranteed Jack Sharkoy Slo0,000. It is paying him that sum tonight 10 meet Loughran. Fortu- natcly for everyone concerned, the gate receipts promise to justify the Gardens investment.
 It now appears that some S275,- GOO will be taken in before the last turnstilc has clicked.
 Both mon are in the city, nt and ready, with Sharkcy enjoying q 10 pound weight advantage. loughran claims he is enjoying his full strength for the first time in many years, and certainly the weight ham diCap will be no excuse.
 In the sCmi-fnal, Jimmy Maloncy of Boston will meet Harold Mays, New Jersey heavyweight, who was substituted for ArmOnd Emmanuel of the Pacific coast when the latter dcfaultcd, alleging sore fragments.

For several days before and after the Houtls-Battalino fight in Hart ford, New York sport writers have been declaring that Pete Reilley, former manager of Jack Delaney when he was light heavyweight champion of the world. had secured a part of the managerial contract of the new worlds new fcathorweight champion.
 These rumors were denied to the writer on the night of the fight by fly Malley. manager of Battalino, and he reiterated hin denial over the telephone last night. Mallcy stated that he was the sole manager of Bat talino and he intended to remain in that capacity.
 T have received plenty of offers since the scrap the other night in which Bat lifted the feather title" sail Mallcy. Put I haven't accepted any of them and I don't intend to right away. I want to do the best thing by Bat and it will take a great deal Of thought before l make any move. I feel right now that I will turn down any and all offers"
 This should dispct all rumors 10 the effect that Pete Rcilley or any other man has purchased a part of Battalino's contract.
 Bat will pay a visit 10 Dr. Fralick, who is considered the outstanding surgeon in the country when it comes to mending the broken bones in d fighters hands. He will under go an operation if necessary so that his mitts will be put in proper shape for a defense of his title It will be more than eight weeks before he will resume training or fight again. Mallcy says.
 The Tommy .oughran-Jack Shar- key fight at the Yankee Stadium to- night will be announced, round by round. from the windows of the Herald. The battle is scheduled 10 take place at tO o'clock The AssoCi- ht'u I'SH NII'S VIII IdllS tIIf StolS y of the bout. There will be no radio broadcast of it.
 There is plenty of interest in the proposed meeting of the New Brit ain Blues and the High school team next Saturday afternoon at Willow Brook park The two teams have held scrimmage sessions in past years but this is the first time that they have met in actual battle.
 According Manager Bernard Conley of the Nutmegs, the price of admission to the game at Willow Brook park Sunday afternoon has been set at . cents. This is the low est admission price in recent years and should tend to bring out q great number of the fans High-priccd football in this section of the state never will pay and the wise man. agcrs are those who are making things easy for their patrons.
