Third Sharkcy-Schmeling

Third arkcy-Schmeling
 Contest Due Next June
 The resounding victory scored by Max Schmeling over chubby Mickey Walker virtually assured a third meeting of Schmeling and the present champion, Jack Shar- key.
 o course it's possible that Shar- key and his chief handler. Johnny Buckley will find q way to give Schmeling the good. old runaround but 1t will be to their everlasting fistlc disgrace If they do.
 After all, there have been two unsatisfactory Sharkey Schmeline fights. The first ended in n foul victory for schmeling after having been punched all over the ring until the low blow came.
 Then. last June, almost exactly two years after the first light they met again. schmeling, ae. cording to this writeN and most all others. was badly jobbed when the decision was given to sharkey. The writer knows that Mag wants another opportunity and It's probable that the champion will agree,
 sharkey, incidentally, believes that sebmeilng has improved since they met in June,
 "sebmslinK is faster and he uses his Jeff more effectively" Jack told the enhsd Press during the Rehmsllns- Walker bout, "Besldes, he has nice right cross now"

Rome and Tokio both are press ing their claims upon the Olympic committee as the site of future games and in the event of the German committee failing to give it's guaranty that no color line will be drawn, the 1896 games may be moved to either Rome or Tokio.
 One of those two cities will be the scene Of the 1940 games but that decision will not be taken until the Olympic committee meets in Vienna next June and in April, 1894, at Athens.
 The great question of what is an Olympic amateur also will come up at those two Olympic meetings for there has been much mumb blings since the European teams returned from Los Angeles of charges of smothered profcs- sionalism.
 What, No Soccer?
 The Los Angeles games already are far in the past and the Olym- pic committee Is taking up the first problem of its 1936 games will soccer football be reinstated as a competitive Olympic sport? At Los Angeles. soccer W s scratched from the program, but Germany wants IL relnslateu ne- fore the Berlin games, because football is a popular sport and can be depended upon filling the stadiums and help the Olympic box office.
 Certain French sporting writers are clamoring for the opening of Olympic football to mixed teams. professionals as well as amateurs. The French Olympic delegates may be instructed to ask for a vote, but the Olympic committee in general appears to be pledged to the Olympic oath of amateur ism and may be expected to refuge the admission of known profess sionals.
 In Favor
 Argentine and Uruguay, f1nal- ists of the 1928 Olympic football tourney, are understood to favor the reinstatement of the sport at Berlin, but they are not openly favorable to the inclusion of pro- fessionals. Italy. Rumania and Switzerland have indicated their desire to include football in the Berlin program but may support the French plan of "open foot ball."

League Batting HOnOrs of 1882 Are His According to Unofficial Figures

New York, Oct 1-(UP)-Dale Alexander of the Boston Red Sox won the mythical batting cham pionship of the major leagues for the 1892 season with an average of .367.
 Final unofficial figures, released today show that Boston's sturdy first baseman nosed out Jimmy Foxx of the Philadelphia Athletics by three points for the American league honors, and finished one point ahead of Frank Lefty" O'Doul of Brooklyn, who topped the National batters with .366.
 However, Foxx had a walk-away for major. league home run hon. ors, finishing a sensational slug ging campaign with a total of 58 four-baggers. Just twosless than Babe Ruth's all-time record of 60. established in 1927.
 Chuck Klein of the Phillies and Mel Ott of the New York Giants were deadlocked for home run honors in the national league, each closing the season with 38.

HARVARD LOOKS TO
 WELLS AS BARRY WOODS SUCCESSOR

Cambridge. Mass, Oct liar yard, according to all early indi- cations, has, in Harry K "Danhy" Wells, a quarterback who will make the fans forget all about Barry Wood, last years signal caller.
 Loud were the groans when Barry left after last years season. But the groans have turned into cheers for the boy of 21 who IS expected to lead Harvard on to a. successful season.
 Wells is a versatile athlete. He is from Hubbard Woods, III. While at a mid-western prep school he played football for four years, explaining an undefeated team in his final season. He also. played basketball and is a member of the track team.
 Last year Wells hid under a basket while Wood basked in the spotlight. But this year all his speed and football knowledge will be needed. He can punt. pass and run with more than fair ability. This speed, however, is his strong point. As @ schoolboy he ran the 100 in 10 seconds, and he hasn't slowed up any.
 Wells weighs 190 and is six feet tall.

ROSS sOMERvILLE SOMERVILLE WIN GOOD FOR. GOLF IN UNITED STATES
BY STUART CAMERON United Press Sports Editor)

Victory by Ross (Sandy) Son. erville, dour Canadian in the United States amateur golf cham pionship generally has been hailed as a good thing for golf in Amer ica.
 Even before the final match had been started many golf writ CTS expressed the opinion that in- terest in the game generally would be enhanced by break in the monopoly held by U. s. players on their own national championship.
 And this was not because any of them liked Johnny Goodman less but the game more.
 Actually Somerville's ultimate victory was that of dark horse. Before the tournament started Gas is the case of course, before all tournaments) the writers made their own lists of possible winners. A chosen few wore named first. Then, as a means of protection against a possible oversight. a list of "others who might come through" was made. Somerville's name was generally found fairly we'll near the bottom of such lists.
 Bob Said It
 Bobby Jones was one of those who early predicted that Somer- vile would reach the finals, and named Sandy as likely winner.
 Now that the long line of U. s. triumphs in the American anna teur has been broken, it will be reasonable to expect heavier en- try lists of Dominion players.
 Somerville. who may not have spoken more than 200 words dur ing his stay at Baltimore while the amateur was being played, re- marked to this writer as to the gra ciousness of the gallery which watched his final match with Goodman.
 Ut was the most sportsmanlike crowd I ever played before," he said.
 This was easy to believe for the crowd applauded his good shots as enthusiastically as it did those of the U. S. contestants. And the crowd contained plenty of specta- tors who were all for Johnny to come through. ...
 It seemed almost pity that is such a solemn gen. tleman. The writer saw him hun- dreds of times during amateur week at Baltimore and Sandy smiled just once out of all those occasions. His friends however, say he is affable enough away from the milling crowds.
 Although Goodman didn't quite make the pionship he more than vindicated the regard his friends hold for him as well as Johnny's own belief in himself.

BENNY LEONARD PRACTICINC WITH
 IRISH FIGHTERS

Pompton Lakes. x. J.. Octo- Der 1. Benny Leonard, the former worlds lightweight cham pion, who after a seven years ab-
 sence from the ring, has come back to endeavor to win the worlds welterweight title, is here, getting ready for the most import ant bout of his comeback career against Jimmy McLarnin. the Irish thumper.
 Benny has been here for close to two weeks now and every day has gone through training drills that would be too much for boys many years his junior. He's the most sincere worker seen around the camp since Jack Sharkey trained here.
 Boxing is Benny's chief forte in training at present. It was his magnificent boxing which brought him the worlds title. It's that on which he will rely to carry him to the heights now occupied by Jackie Fields. Even now. ten days before the ten round fight with McLarnin in Madison Square Garden, he is engaging in daily boxing and sharpening his skill against boys whose records have been built up on their boxing. They are good ringmen in the handling of the gloves, clever and fast ant that's just what Benny says he needs to fit him right for the hard counters that only Jimmy McLar- min can deliver.
 There's Eddie Riley, as clever a lad as we have seen, who is ono who is pitching to Benny. Just DOW Eddie finds some spots in the Leonard defense and so does Jimmy Dougherty, another lad well versed in the science of hox- ing. They are making Benny's speed more keen by their fast fists and sharpening his eye.
 It's just a coincidence that both are Irish kids against whom Benny is spending his training days, but they are Irish and Benny will have no qualms in facing off with the great McLarnin in the matter of race in the Garden week from Friday night.
 McLarnin has been training down at Sayville, L. l.. for the last Weeh UT SO, Dut ycoleIuay uc eoo.es a day off, because his ring tell down and he had to depend on other physical exercises in prepar- ation for the Leonard fight. He will have Phil Rafferty and Johnny Peters with him when he resumes boxing on Thursday.
 In the meantime. Matchmaker Sam McQuade is rounding up his supporting cards and expects 10 have it intact by tomorrow, put ting in some of the best local talent there is to be had.
 The tickets for the show will be ready for distribution on Fri day and judging by the demands for the tickets at this time. the resumption of the indoor season in the Garden on October ' should be marked big success.

U of Quarterback
 Speaks 5 Tongues

Los Angeles (UP) - Mitchell (Mike) Francovich should be quar- terback of some such international football team as Notre Dame. At present he barks signals for the University of California, at Los Angeles.
 Mike, 21, a native of Arizona, and half Serbian, speaks German. Italian. Serbian, Spanish, and Eng fish. The only handicap to Mikes powerful speech Is that his team mates speak only English.
 The quarterback also is a fine slight of hand artist, and his huge hands can palm a football almost as we'll as deck of cards. Still a sophomore. Mike was such an excellent student he was of- fered scholarships at both Harvard and Cornell. He plans to attend the School of Diplomacy, at Wash ington, D. C., upon his graduation.

TRAP NOTES

Many persons not conversant with the trapshooting sport are of the opinion that the Grand Amer ican Handicap tournament is the only shoot of the year. The Grand American is the same to the trap shooting sport as the world series is to baseball. Shooting takes parts at all times of the year in the various states of the union, Canada and the Panama Canal Zone. Many registered shoots, sponsored and officially recognized by the Amateur Trapshooting Association will be held before the first of the year.
 J. M, McCOmb, Lieutenant (S. O. U. $. N., Lakehurst, N. J. organ izcd a gun club at the Naval Air station at Lakehurst a year ago. The club now has 25 members and their improvement has been grad- ual Lieutenant McCOmb has made the suggestion for a championship shoot or race at the Grand Amer ican for Army, Navy and Marine Corps members, as there arc lot of trapshOOters in these branches of the service. The suggestion will be ;,iyen due consideration at the annual meeting of the board of di- rcctors of the A. T. A. next Dcccm- ber.
 Steve Brothers of Philadelphia, Pa, who won the champion of champions title for the second time at the recent Grand Amer ican Handicap, keeps up the good work. Steve made a clean sweep of events at the Quaker City Gun Club a few days ago by breaking 100 straight to tie with Frank Webb of Trenton, N. J., and he broke 99 straight to win the shoot off. Steve is one of the best shots in the United States and one of the most consistent makers of perfect scores.

New Haven, Oct Frankie Me- Gowan, Branford's Betting Beauty who enjoyed one of his best sea- sons with Baltimore this year and who may find himself in a major league training camp again next spring, will probably appear in the lineup of the New Haven Cops against the New York police de- partment nine at Donovan field Sunday afternoon. The only hitch thus far to prevent McGowan's ap- pearance with the Cops is that he is scheduled to officiate in foot ball both Saturday and Sunday and he must make arrangements for someone else to handle the whistle footing.
