CARNERA LOSES
DEMPSEY BOUT

SAN FRANCISCO, April Is.
The State athletic commission
was to hold another meeting to-
day, when it will attempt to
probe deeper into the peculiar
ending of the fight at Oakland
Monday night between Primo
Carnera, the giant Italian, and
Leon "Bombo" Chevalier, negro
heavyweight.
Today Camera, his two man-
ayers, Leon See and Bill Duffy,
and his Western representative,
Frank Churchill. are expected to
be present at the investigation.
The fight was awarded to Car
nera in the sixth round on a
technical knockout when Boo
Perry, one of Chevalier's seconds,
threw in a towel. Yesterday the
negro fighter said he was not
in distress when the towel was
hurled in the ring, and it is
charged that Perry tossed in the
token of defeat to save Camera
from possible defeat.
:, Chevalier also charged that
Perry threatened him with
death II he didn't quit to
Carnera. He also charged
Perry with rubbing him with
q sponge which caused his
eyes and nose to burn. Perry
denied the charges.
It was also charged that
Churchill and Perry conversed
while the fight was under way
and that Perry had associated
with the Camera contingent be-
fore the fight.
The negro fighter also said
that Bob Laga, another second,
told him to "lay down" in the
first round, just as he was enter
ing the ring. This accusation
was also denied by Laga.
The boxing commission was
apparently satisfied that both
fighters were doing their best.
They said they would be willing
to fight again for the purse,
which was held up by the COM
mission.
AS the result Of the fiaSco at
Oakland, Bill Kyne, San Fran
cisco sportsman, has withdrawn
his offer of $150,000 to Camera
for a fight with Jack Dempsey.

HIS BATTING
P]ROWESS
BY BOB THAYER

BOSTON, Mass, April 16.-Out-
fielder Earl Webb, three times a
big league cast-off has finally
found himself a home. Further
more his slam bang clouting may
soon gain him a regular job with
the Washington Griffmen.
During the past two years the
Washington club has experimental
with Sam West, a great out
fielder short of batting con-
Sistency. No results have been
forthcoming. When Walter john
son learned that Webb could be
had on waivers recently he got
busy, and, with Clark Griffith'S
cooperation, Walter succeeded in
putting over deal which brought
Webb to the Griffmen-supposediy
on waivers.
The Cincinnati Redlegs
who let Webb 60, were over

wise the big fellow would
never have been shifted to

Prior to being brought up by
Cincinnati in the draft last win

He batted .357 with Los Angeles,
of the Pacific Coast League, in
1929.

boy. put in a big boost for Webb
which was largely Instrumental
In his purchase.

marked 20 Walter johnson.

Yesterday the 3o-year-old out
fielder reported here and i'm
mediately set his mates buz3ling
by his rugged ,socking in batting
practice.
"He laces out that ball as
hard as Goose GOSlin," one
conservative old timer re-
marked. "HOw in the world
the majors ever passed him
up during these days of hard
hitting is beyond me-"
Webb takes q left hand stance
at the plate. He puts an abund-
ance Of power behind his swing
and hits all pitching equally well.
At the time Of his purchase it
was thought that the former Los
Angeles ace would be held in re-
serve as a utility outfielder and
pinch hitter. Now he Is conceded
o good chance of either edging
out Sam West as centerfield,

pitching or else taking over the

By BABE RUTH

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 10.
It's always good to get that first
game Of the season over with.
Somehow when that first one is
out of the way a fellow sort Of
feels as though he can settle
down to the grind of playing base
ball.
The first game is always more
Of a show than it is ball game.
The first games run just about
true to form. Washington fig
ured to win from Boston; Detroit,
on sheer hitting power alone,
seemed to have something on
st. Louis. .-.
As for the Philadelphia Yankee
game. well first blood goes to
them. They played nice heads
up baseball back of some great
pitching by Lefty Grove and
they deserved to win.
But don't forget there are
stilI 153 games to be played
before the pennant Is
awarded and the opener is
just one of a long series.
The Athletics looked great
yesterday, I'll hand them that.
They played with assurance and
pepper-iust as they did in the
world series against the Cubs.
But they showed the very thing
I've talked about all spring, and
that is a weakness on the infield,
particularly around short and
second.
What put them over yesterday
was the pitching and if they win
the pennant again this year it
will be pitching that wins for
them.
A fellow like Lefty Grove is the
most valuable asset any bali
club can have and as long as
Lefty and his fellow pitchers work
as Lefty did yesterday the Ath-
letics will be a tough team to
handle.

had chances to drive In runs
and fell down. So did Tony. So
did Lou. And there were lapses
afield. too, that hurt, the sort
of lapses that you won't see often
during the season.
Our pitching was good enough
to win most ball games. A lot
of critics claim that weak pitch
ing will cost us the pennant this
season but it wasn't pitching
that hurt us yesterday. PipgraS
and johnson both did well, and
rye got a sneaking hunch that

to pitch as he did yesterday, VIII

It was Henry you may re-

over Lefty Grove.
One thing that impressed me
yesterday was the interest there
seems to be in baseball. 1t was
a raw, cold day in Philadelphia
the sort of day that fellow
likes to stick by the home fire
side, yet there were $4,000 fans
out to watch the game.
And from what I read In
the papers 1t must be the
same way all around the cir
cult. It Just goes to show
that baseball interest isn't as
dead as some Of the critics
would have you believe.
