M'MILLAN DISCOVERS
ROEBUCK TOUGH FOE
Wins, but Severely Punished, and
Regrets Task Just Prior to
Meeting Londos.

LTHIS Roebuck is almost as
tough as Jim Londos. I'm
sorry ever agreed to vrestle
him, when I meet Londos
Monday" declared Jim Mcmillan, weary
and bleeding. following his 53-minute
victory over Roebuck last night at the
Washington Auditorium.
Mcmillan. though victorious. took a
sustained beating as the 243-pound
Indian used his weight advantage to
punish Londos' chief contender.
Before some $500 fans, Mcmillan and
Roebuck capped an extensive mat card
with a thrilling finish 1t was one of
McN1illan's specials, a flying tackle,
buck, tossed out of the ring, barely
clamored inside the ropes when the
former Illinois star hurtled his body
from the opposite side of the ring
crashed into Roebucks nidsection and
sent the giant Indian flying back
through the ropes again. The fall broke
the three-foot wooden platform outside
the barrier.
Though Roebuck painfully climbed
back into the ring with his right arm
hanging limp. he was unable to defend
himself and was pinned with body
slam.
The feature bout, with two serious
contenders for the title battling, was
devoid of any showmanship but four
preliminaries were packed with antics.
Wanka zeleSniak never aggressive in
side the arena against Wladek Zbyszko,
took occasion to make faces at his foe
and dare him outside the ropes. Wanka
bowed after 1917 minutes.
Dick Shikat, barefoot, found he had
a tartar on his hands in Matros Kire-
lenko, Russian strong man. They bat
tied to a Commute draw.
The BOBBY prize went to the Joe
GAM Milo Steinborn match. Milo
merely stared at CAM for five minutes
and then tossed him for a loss.
Doc Wilson, wrestling'S Beau Brum-
mel, toppled the villain Nick hester in
29l2 minutes Dutch Green and Jack
Olsen went is minutes to a draw in
the opener.

n 7 EW YORK, February 2o.-The

heck in Madison Square Gar
den this Winter. It has been
impossible 10 beat one of 'em. In the
last three months and half they have
appeared in eight main events, without
a single setback.
just why this has been so is a neat
little problem for the master minds.
Maybe it is due to sun spots. Maybe
it is an after-effect of the drought.
Perhaps it will be discovered ultimately
that the Hoover administration Is re-
sponSible. Who can tell?
Ever since November the Italian
representatives have escaped defeat. On
that date Fidel Labarba put the skids
under Kid Chocolate. Tony CanZonert
Jared Al Singer loose from the light
weight title in the first round on No
vember IA. A week later Petrolle came
back and hammered Jimmy McLarnin
all over the place.
Dundee Wins Twice.
Labarba, on November %, blasted
his way to victory over Bud Taylor.
Bat Battalino turned back Kid Choco-
late for the featherweight title on De-
cember IL. Two Italians, Midget VOL
CAST and frankie Genaro on Decem-
Der 26, fought to draw for the feath-
erwetght title.
Since the turn of the year Vince
Dundee, Baltimore Italian, has kept
up the good work by scoring brace
of victories over Len Harvey.
All of which brings us down to the
affair tomorrow night, in which Eddie
Shea of Chicago, is to meet Kid Fran
els of Italy. Don't be confused by the
name Shea. There is no Irish blood
In Eddies veins. He was born in Chi
cago. of italian parents. His real name
Is Edward Donofrio. Francis rightful
monicker is Francis Bonagurio. and he
first saw the light in sunny Italy.
With two sons Of italy facing each
other the winning streak Is bound to
be preserved. The Francis-Shea bout
should be one Of the best punching
bees put on by boys of their weight.
Shea scored knockouts In considerably
more than half his starts last year.
Francis knockout record Is not so i'm
pressive, but he can sock with that
right to the body.

Dissatisfied with the terms of the
contract offered him by the Portland
Club of the Pacific Coast Base Ball
League, Larry Woodall of Mount Rain
Ter, former Detroit catcher, has sent the
contract back unsigned He expects,
however, that something satisfactory
will be worked out shortly.
Woodall managed Portland last sea-
son, but new pilot has been picked for
the coming campaign. Portland got off
to bad start in 1929 and never showed
much, finishing seventh. Woodall, de-
spite his managerial duties, caught we'll
over 100 games and socked the ball for
around $50. He did most Of his catch
ing the early part of the season, letting
Joe Palmisano, youngster, who has been
sold to the Philadelphia Athletics, do
most Of the receiving toward the end Of
the campaign.
Woodall has been keeping In shape at

SHEA, FRANCIS CLASH
IN FEATHER FEATURE
Pair Among Leading Contenders
for Boxing Crown Will Meet
in New York Tonight.

by Lne ASoOCldteu RTeSS.
NEW YORK, February 20.-Two
leading contenders for the feather
weight championship. Eddie Shea of
Chicago and Kid Francis of Italy, clash
in a 10-round bout in Madison Square
Garden tonight.
Shea, rugged warrior with power
full punch, is an 8-to-5 favorite. He
has not fought here since he was
knocked out by Charlie QPhiD Rosen-
berg, then bantamweight champion.
Francis, who has abandoned his
chase for the bantamweight title in
favor of mingling with the bigger fell
lows, has won five straight bouts since
he returned from abroad to open his
third American campaign. He is ag-
gressive and experienced, but boasts
little power in his punches.
Shea was called in as substitute for
Fidel La Barba when the former fly
weight champion was taken Ill. La
Barba has agreed to meet the winner
as soon as he is fully recovered.
Tommy Grogan, Omaha lightweight
tackles Herman Perlick of Kalamazoo
Mich, in q 10-round semi-flnal. Harry
Carleton and Ralph Lenny, New Jersey
lightweights, are paired in the first 10.

what the right arm swing does. The
right in control coming down from
the top forces the clubhead out be-
yond the direction line the ball
should follow. To make contact
with the ball the clubhead is pulled
in and across this line at contact.
Result-a slice. Every one knows
that.
This test will establish a funda-

arm must do the swinging.

DAMAGES FOR GRID FAN
Yanked From Evanston Stand,
Gets 81, 900 From Northwestern.

CHICAGO, February 20 lR).-A foot
ball fan got $1,000 for not attending a
foot ball game.
The Notre Dame Northwestern game
at Evanston last Fall was the contest.
Tickets for it were SO scarce, so great
was the interest, that they were at a
premium. Frank G. Leviton got one,
but a policeman took him out Of his
seat just about kickoff time.
Leviton got his ticket from a friend
who had bought it from another friend
who had purchased it from somebody
else. 1t seems that 1t had been stolen,
but Leviton didn't know anything about
that, so he sued Northwestern Uni
versity for 100000. The case was set
tied out of court for $1,000.
He charged false arrest and interior
ence with his seeing the game.

Pointers on Golf
BY SOL METZGER.

Probably one factor in our failure
to profit more from golf instruction
Is our failure to think things out
for ourselves, or to do a little ex-
perimenting. For example, if we
took the trouble to swing golf club
first with the left arm only and then
with the right we would find great
differences in the arcs the clubhead
would take in each case. It would
drive home the necessity of using
the straight left arm to swing the
club.
The reason is clear when we see
