also be sweepstakes for pros in

Association holds these handicap

The final 18-holeS of the Eve

The Washington Times gives
Schwartz the first five rounds
with the sixth and seventh to
LanderS and the final session 60
ing to Schwartz. The latter, a
veteran of II years made LanderS
look like a school-boy for five
rounds, scoring freely with both
hands to the head and body.
Landers appeared helpless as
Schwartz feinted often.
Landers, whose only qualities
are courage and a deadly right
hand, staggered Schwartz in the
sixth and seventh rounds. In the
seventh he had Schwartz groggy,
but the latter escaped a possible
knockout by holding on to the
Norfolk youngster, who carried an
advantage Of three pounds.
Fans Boo Decision
Neither did the majority of the
fans agree when Short pointed
to Billy Stricken, local middle
weight, as victor over Billy Fiem-
ster, North Carolina middle
weight, after eight rounds. True,
FiemSter made a sorry sight of
Strickler's face in the last two
rounds. but these happen to be
the only rounds which Fiemster
won. The other six belonged to
Strickler, as FiemSter disliked
Strickler's body attack, making
little attempt to fight back.
Fiemster closed fast, blasting
away with both fists and left
Strickler a Frankenstein at the
final bell, his face smeared a
crimson red. Fiemster. however,
failed to knock Strickler off his
feet.
Among Best Scraps
One Of the best scraps ever
presented at Portner's was the
eight-round duel between Ken
Overlin, Norfolk middleweight,
and Joe Smallwood, Washington

boy, making his first appearance
before home fans for many
months. OVerlin was the winner
by a close margin because he
piled up points in the early
rounds. Smallwood is greatly
improved since his last showing
here.
atwood was much the
stronger at the finish and was
dealing out wicked punishment
with his right. Overlin was also
guilty of much holding.
Young Van, who has won all
his pro bouts by knockouts, was
forced to the limit to snatch the
decision from K. 0. Burns, Balti-
more middleweight, after six
rounds. Donald First, Baltimore
lightweight, outpointed Marine

Here's a Sandl0t team Win q
big league pitching staff.
Manager Ronald G. Thring OF
the Franc jewelers., unlimited
baseball team, has four capable
pitchers. This is something un'
usual for a Sandlot team. The
average nine carries two pitchers,
three at the most.
Harry Best, Frank Carter,
Ralph Young and Cranston How
ard comprise the formidable
mound roster. Frank Carter had
a try-out with Baltimore Orioles
and Ralph Young used to throw
'em plateward for Tech High
School.
First Year in Loop
The Francs will compete in the
unlimited section of the Capital
City for the first time this year
So far this season they have de-
feated four aggregations which
will vie for honors in the Capital
City loop. They are Chevy Chase,
Horning jewelers., Naval Com
munications, and C. & P. Tele'
phone Co. The Goldmen have
scored 81 runs to their opponents
IL. Not a bad record for un'
limited beginners.
Here's some interesting data
about the organization Of the
Francs. Five years ago the
Francs were known as the Po
tomac MidgetS. Now they are
unlimiteds, and let me tell you
that's some jump.
Brothers Coach
Three brothers coach the
present team. They are the
Rosenbaum brothers, Bob. Rus
sell, and Babe. Manager Thring's
club has a crack lineup, as vel
as an excellent pitching staff
George Irving, William Albert
Willie Felner, and Bernie Hemelt
are the infielders.
Bob Farrell, Jack Beaner anc
Charles Albert comprise the outer
garden. Tubby Hile and Charles

OFF
BY COPELAND C. BURG

NEW YORK, May 10.-The
mayor of Kingston, N. Y, chased
all the moths out Of his summer
greeting suit today and the King
ston augmented glee club with
considerable gusto slid over a
few bars of "Ach, Du Liber
AuguStin-tum, tum."
For on the morrow Kingston
will do itself proud shining up
the key to the city as it welcomes
Max Schmeling, who likes to see
himself referred to in the public
prints as the German Dempsey"
After the Kingston ceremonies,
which will climax in a dinner
with speeches, Schmeling will de-
part for his training camp at
GreenkiIl Dodge, just outside
Kingston, to prepare for the de-
fense of his worlds heavyweight
title against Jack Sharkey IN New
York on June 81.
Starts Training Soon
Sputtering English like a beer
garden waiter and tanned in a
fashion that would make a South
Sea Islander telegraph for a sun
lamp, the king of all heavy
weights was here today after a
vacation in the Midwest.
He will inspect Madison Square
Gardens new Long Island City
bowl, where the battle will be
staged, this afternoon and leave
tomorrow for Kingston with his
retinue of sparring mates and
trainers. Before the week ends
Kingston's rafters will shake and
CULVER with his training stunts.
Charley Belanger, Jack Shaw
and Joe Lopez are the gentlemen
making up the original supply OF
tom-tomS on which the champion
will tune up.
Mr.. Sharkey On Hand
Mr.. Sharkey annoyed the Gar
den's publicity aces somewhat by
arriving yesterday at his Orange
burgh IN. " training camp
totally unsung and without bene-
fit of a single typewriter.
The Bostonian simply showed
up like a parcels post package
with his wife and couple Of
trainers and announced he was
there to stay.
Both fighters, however, whether
or not in touch with their depart
ment of public relations, man
aged to get out statements praiS-
ing themselves. Both said they
weighed only about 1875 pounds"
and both promised to enter the
ring at "about 100 pounds"
Each said he was worried be-
cause the other was worrying so
much about the forthcoming eve
ming, and the champion went so
far as to predict the challenger
might actually worry himself into
a breadline.
IF Schmeling (Sharkey)," said
the statements, flights the way
he says he will, the public is
bound to see a great scrap"

Kentucky, once noted for its
hospitality, has gone modern at
last, therefore, and has decided
to take it from the customers
for all the traffic will bear on
the one day in the year they
foregather for the country's
most famous scamper.
Another indication of the
greed which has beSet those
otherwise gracious people is the
habit into which the better
hotels have fallen. Now, I take
it those hotels aren't run by
Kentuckyans at all, but more
likely by New Workers, or pos
sibly Chicagoans: but anyway
you can't get a hotel room with
bath for the period Of the
Derby for less than SIS a night,
and you have to take it for a
minimum of four nights.

TEAM CAN WIN
BETTER HERE
THAN ON ROAD.
TOday'S scheduled game be-
tween the Griffs and Cleveland
Indians was called off at noon
because of incIement weather.
By GARRETT WATERS

Always known to be pretty sue
ceSsful at home, the GriffS can
thank their stars this year that
the schedule has been so arranged
that they meet all of the clubs
from the West at Griffith Sta.

steady of later, as was the case
in 1881.
This, because Manager John
sons gang are in first place today
and have a very good chance OF
staying in this position a while.
in view Of their past faculties OF
winning more easily at home than
on the road.
OF course, last years first trip
to the Western sector for Our
Griffmen" was an exception, be.
cause nine out of IL games are

paign. But the true hardships
the team always encounters was
shown later when it was found
particularly difficult to win, much
more return home with a favor
able record for all efforts put ior-
ward.
MaybeS Prevail
This is not to be taken that
the Griffs will run into goshawful
trouble this season when they
first hike out West. Maybe they
will, and, of course, it is hoped
they won't, but no matter what
happens, every victory gained
during this home stay will help
that much more if trouble is run
into in the Western contests
when that sector is invaded.
The Griffs begin their initial
trek to foreign lands Tuesday.
June 7. A long ways off, maybe,
but the above offers something
to think about as the season
slowly but surely unfolds. The
Griffs, by making a good show
ing in these games, will defi-
nitely settle all claims that they
are dangerous pennant contend
ers, if not potential champions.
A bad showing will class them
in the maybe" category. with
strong accent on the maybe be-
cause of the uncertainty inVolv-
ing the teams comeback to good
graces, if such a thing should
become necessary.
Fischer on Mound
But to get to the present. Man"
ager Johnson's men lineup against
the Cleveland Indians in the sec
ond game of the current series to-
morrow. Carl Fischer has been told
by Johnson that he was to get
the pitching assignment for the
Griffs, and Carl, still out to add
to his winning record which he
hopes will reach the 20 mark this
season, will step to the mound
more than anxious to register.
Fischer has won three games and
lost none so far for the year.
Mel Harder, right-hander. is to
be the Cleveland hurler. His work
for the season has been both good
and bad as his record reads two
victories against three losses.
The GriffS have been known to
do pretty well against Harder in
past years. Maybe with the right
breaks they'll continue to be sue
Cessful against this pitcher, and
hang up triumph No. for the
series. Let's hope Harder will not
be so hard, if a pun may be
brought into the discussion.

Two Divisions

In the year 1918, if we re-
call correctly, there were so
many horses entered in the
Pimlico PreakneSS, a renewal
Of which will be run next Sat-
Ilrday, it was necessary to split
'em into two divisions, giving
each of the winners. Jack Hare
and War Cloud, the full award.
This could have been done
quite handily in Kentucky last
Saturday, affording better sport
for the 10000 present and af-
fording every horse of the 20
a better start and a better
chance to show his mettle.
Many a good horse, like Tick
On, had his chances killed in
that IS minutes at the post,
which time would oStensibly
have been reduced in proper
ton to a smaller starting num-
ber.
However, they don't divide
these Derbies in Kentucky, else
IT would have been done IN
1923 when 81 started; 1925, when
20 started; 1928, when %
started, and 1929, when 81
started. Two stall gates were
set side by side last Saturday,
and even at that, four horses
were on the outside when the
tape lifted.
The ordeal at the post, to-
gether with a parade of the
horses past a brightly uni

dock, took plenty out of their
high-strung dispositions and de-
tracted greatly from the 1882
edition of the classic for the
10000 onlookers.
But, at that, it's worth going
to see, and instead of complain

merely suggesting how the af-
fair might be improved.
