to John 8. Blick. Although
Bobby's put four Of EN- in the
bag this year, the open golf-bowling
free-for-an between Jones and Blick
stfil must be settled.
Last year Blick went to Atlanta for
the opening Of his new bowling en-
porium there and met Jones. They
played golf and Bobby licked the maple
magnate and at the same time invited
him to come back and take another
licking. Blick accepted the invitation,
but went away with an agreement that
they'll shoot o round Of golf with Bobby
Spotting him Is shots. Then they'll
bowl, with Blick spotting Bobby IL pins.
Blick leaves for Atlanta on q BUSH
ness trip Sunday and while there plans
70 call on Jones and go through with
their agreement If everything's con-
venient.
This match Is likely to turn out to
be red hot affair, hotter than many
folks might think. Blick is nobody's
set-up at golf and figures to at least
give Jones as much of battle as he
got at Philadelphia recently. And
Bobby, on the other hand, sports an
average Of over 100 in duckpins.
Both should have a Job TO triumph
In their respective specialties. An lS-
stroke adverse handicap is plenty even
for the champs of the world, while Blick

Incidentally, Jones is coming along in

pionship bout in July. There were
many stories current at the time. Man.
dell charged afterward that he had
been doped; whatever the truth of
that, 1t was obvious when he came into
the ring that the champion was in no
condition to fight. The commission
physician who examined him before
the match should, in justice to the
public, have called on the bout and de-
clared Mandell's title open. He could
not make the weight and keep his speed
and strength.
The Singer-Mand Fight.
Mandell came into the ring listlessly
and Singer was at him at once. Man
dell seemed to be lifting his arms
tiredly and having difficulty defending
himself. Singer hit him with q short
left hook to the chin and Mandell drop
ped. After that first knockdown he
seemed dazed. Arms ut his side, he
was sent down twice more, and on the
third fall took the count. It was q
been known as one Of the finest de-
fensive boxers in the business.
Some Of Singers fights on the way TO
the title were severely commented on by
newspaper writer's, and some Of his op-
ponents were theoretically charged with
not doing their best to win. One of the
bouts criticized was that Of Pete Nebo.
Referee Danny Ridge stopped the fight
with Nebo still on his feet and pleading
to go on.
In March, when Singer met Eddie
Kid Wagner, articles had already been
announced for his championship scrap
with Mandell.
A boxing writer said Of the Wagner
Singer affair that mo one took the
thing seriously, not even Singers most
ardent admirers. No one was fooled.
It was all Wagner's fault. Or Singers"
Wagner was dropped in the second
round with q blow that he stopped with
his own flst and was dropped again with

the third. Regarding the finish, the
same reporter wrote:
"A punch was driven but IL did not
land and this reproter will wager any
ringside critic that he win pass any
known eyesight test. Wagner furnished
the third guffaw In the round by re-
naming in floating position until the
referee sang out nine. II the blow that
induced Wagner to listen to the 10
count reached his chin, ! win take q
second examination BY an expert
oculist."
Then there was the second match,
held In May, with Ignacio Fernandez,
who had knocked out Singer In 1929.
The Filipino was warned by Referee
Patsy Haley and Commissioner Farley
that IL there were any evidences Of o
fake fight or phoney knockout he
would lose his purse. Fernandez, o
featherweight, remained on his feet for
the 10 rounds against the Singer Of
well publicized punching power.
Two months later the same Singer
knocked out great lightweight cham
pion in the first round.

Record Holding Winner Of Five World Series
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, October
10.-In looking back at one
i Of the most gripping world
series ever played, the
things that most impressed me
was the mighty carnival of air
tight pitching that extended
through the six games as well as
the heavy scoring the Athletics
squeezed out Of a limited number
Of hits.
The winning pitcher of every game
without exception turned In rare per-
Torrance.

delphia and st. Louis and Hallahan and

have been battling In world series
as far back as 1905, but can't recall
q year when one Of the contestants
hit as timely as the Athletics this Fail
and made small crop Of hits go so
far.
Just think. On the FIRST two days we
made only IL hits, but scored IL runs
to win two straight victories.
On the first day we made only hits
OF Burleigh Grimes, but each one was
for distance and consisted Of 2 homers,
triples and O double for q total of 16
bases. Five hits are not many, but
they beat Grimes handily.
Then in winning the sixth game at
Shibe Park and ending the series we
made seven runs out of seven hits.
Once again every hit that rang out was
for extra bases.
Home runs by Dykes and Simmons
and doubles yielded total OF 10 bases,
this game was In doubt, although we
unarshaled no more than hits.
There In q Pinch.
don't think this record has ever
been matched IN world series compe-
tttion.
The points am raising are these:
We had the pitching In pinch.
We had the hitting In pinch.
While we were OF our batting stride
IN the games, yet In q pinch there was
always stout-hearted Athletic bat
bearer to step up and bat In a run.
That combination was too much for
st. Louis. Pinch hitting and pinch
pitching win win for any team in o
world series.
Credit must 60 to Earnshaw and
Grove for working out Of turn and al
ways being unsuitable. They could
have gone further had It been necessary.
have no doubt In my mind that II
o seventh game had been necessary that
We would have won It.
Timely and spectacular extra base
blows were made by Foxx, Simmons
and Cochrane, while Dykes figures big
with his bat In the first two victories
and In the final one. After doing
little hitting In the first five games,
Bing Miller came back with two boom
ing doubles to help win the sixth game.
want to say that not one Of my men
failed me In the series. They played
and acted like world champions.
II there was any doubt In anybody's
mind they proved that last years VIC
tory over the Cubs was no fiuke and
not the result Of breaks.
We surely had no breaks IN our
favor In this years series. We won every
one Of our four victories through sheer
superiority.
The Athletics viii carry memories Of
their great double success throughout
the Winter. The year 1880 win bulk big
IN their minds for the rest Of their
lives.

Routis was not impressive as q cham

crown would take It over.
Oddly, the opportunity came to Bat

Relief Expedition Arrives in
 City On Christmas

Salta, Argentina. Dec. 26 LE - Thirty-three dead and more than 70 persons injured were counted today as the toll of earthquakes over the holidays which destroyed La Poma, small Andean village.
 A relief expedition arrived in the little mountain town Christmas Day after a A hour march and found the survivors of Wednesdays quakes terror stricken by six new tremors, camped among the debris of their homes.
 Survivors said the earthquake which Saturday knocked down the village houses and caused most of the damage was accompanied by a sound that commenced like distant thunder from beneath the earth s surface. It's Crescendo increased until at one time it sounded like the greatly amplified galloping of many horses.
 As the masonry fell and plaster was thrown from ceilings the inhab- itants of the little village fled to the open fields where they wandered about until dawn when they return cd 10 their fallen homes, which were cnshrouded in clouds of dust
 Two huge cracks in the earth's surface, from which oozed hot Wa ter, were left by the quake. A num- Der Of persons were said to have fallen into the cracks and disappear ed. Neighboring mountains emitted smoke during the tremors.
