F|NNEGAN DUE
TOMORROW

Dick ("Honey Boy") Finnegan,
accompanied by his manager,
Dan Carroll. is expected to arrive
in town tomorrow. Finnegan,
who opposes George Balduc in
the eight-round feature event Of
the Front Line Post, Veterans Of
Foreign Wars show Monday night
et Fort Washington, Md. has been
training in Boston. Balduc will
arrive today and will train at
Ahearn's gym or the Mohawk gym.
Finnegan is well-known to local
boxing fans and the promoters ex-
pect a record turnout Monday.
Balduc, however, Is little known
here but matchmaker Goldie
Ahearn speaks highly of Finne-
gan's opponent. Says Ahearn:
"This Balduc will be no set
up for Finnegan and he'll give
Honey Boy all he wants. He Is
one Of the best in the ring
game and has faced such good
ones as Joe Click, Sid Terris,
Tiny Herman, Jsckie Kid
Berg, Ruby Levine, Johnny
Leonard, SOlly Ritz and
Jackie Snyder"
Eddie Buell. and Earl Lavine
are expected to put on another
battle such as the one that had
the fans wild with excitement
several weeks ago. When the
baby-faced Lavine entered the
ring the fans imagined the young
Ster would be a chopping block
for the craftier and older Buell..
Quite the contrary for Lavine
proved himself well able to han.
die himself.
Whitley Taylor has been
matched with Clarence Stout,
Of Baltimore. for six rounds.
Two four-rounderS are also listed.
Ahearn also announces change
of prices for this show. Ringside

Following are the highlights
Of q radio talk made by the
oversigned through station
WMAL late yesterday after
noon:
81 should like to say just q
little something about the two
distinguished baseball pilots
who are. behind the pennant
winning clubs, because l believe
much Of the credit due any
winning combination of ball
players is attributable also to
their managers and in Connie
Mack and Gabby Street we
have contrasts indeed, in man
agerial types.
"The personality of Connie
Mack Is not like that of any
other man in baseball unless it
be Walter johnson, one Of the
least lOquaciOus individuals in
modern day baseball.
"FOr Connie Mack, q world
series is q semisecretive thing
and he has few cOnfidants and
no condolences. He does his
own thinking, he operates his
team from the quiet reserve Of
the dugOut and he spends much
time alone in his chambers
planning his offensives and
other tactics.
"McGiIlicuddy ever avoids
publicity, not that he's afraid
of it, but it just doesn't fit
into his scheme Of things. He's
harder to interview than q
dress-maker's dummy. Running
his ball club with the gentle
gesture and the SOft-spOken
word Of q school teacher, he
is unOStentati0us to a fault.
"AS a college professor he
should have been a great sue.
cess. for he cajoIeS with a
word Of praise and encourage.
ment and directs with iIlustra-
tive lesson. Too, he is a disci.
plinarian only as a last resort.
But back Of that soft voice and
kindly mien, he has a hand of
iron which he has had to use
but seldom down through the
years OF his administration over
the Athletics.
"He prefers the gentIer
method Of leadership and likes
best those ball players who
can be hardled in that simple,
child-Iike way. But don't mis-.
take the Philadelphia Athletics
for . schOOl-r0Om of pupils, be.
cause back of that dignified
front with which Connie Mack
has imbued them, they are a
rarin' to 80 collection of ath-
Ietes who will fight it out
