M|CKEY'S CHANCES
Return Bout With Uzcudun
Likely Before He Gets
Shot at Schaaf.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, May 27.-If Mickey
nj Walker fails to get that match
with Ernie Schaaf as early in
the outdoor season as he ex-
pected. he can blame it all on Pauline
Uzcudun, rock ribbed old warrior from
the Pyrennes
BY the slimmest Of margins and,
partly at least, because of an illegal
punch at the end of the eighth round,
Walker squeezed out . 10-round deci-
sion over Pauline in Madison Square
Garden last night.
RUT the booes Of crowd Of 5000 fol-
~ lowed Walker as he left the ring,
while Pauline drew the ovation
usually reserved for the winner.
The punch that turned the SYM
pathies of the crowd to the veteran
Spaniard and the tide of battle toward
Walker came after the bell had ended
at fault for he landed a left hook to
the body just after the bell. But he
dropped his hands and stepped back,
and as he did Walker swung right
that split the Spaniard's left eyebrow
wide open.
THAT blow beat Pauline, for Walker
i opened the cut with the first punch
in the ninth round, and, blinded
by the flow of blood, Pauline could do
little from then on but step forward
into Walkers lefts to the head.
Walker, II he had won decisively, was
to have been matched Immediately with
Schaaf, but now he probably will have
to give Pauline a return match first.
Pauline. at 1877, outweighed Walker
by 81 pounds.

BROAD JUMP CHAMPIONS.

AS the only athletes credited official
~ with jumping more than rs feet
from flying take-off, they outclass
the field in an event which has been
won rather easily by the United States
in seven Of the past eight Olympiads.
Gator Holds Record.
Gator holds the official world record
of Is feet Is inch, made at the Co.
lombes Stadium, Paris. shortly after he
finished second to Ed Hamm Of the
United States of America in the 1928
Olympic championships in Amsterdam.
Our Haitian correspondent advises that
Gator, in fine condition for the Olym-
pics after six months of consistent
training, is credited with exceeding his
own record in practice.
Nambu last October hoped 26 feet
2ls inches at Toxic in the japanese
national championships. This mark
will be submitted for new world rec
ord when the T. A. A. F. meets in Los
Angeles during the Olympics.
Once U. S. Pushover.
Heretofore the Olympic broad jump
has usually been just one or two big
leaps and a breeze for our boys. The
reason they lost in 1920 at Antwerp,
where Peterson of Sweden topped the
list at only % feet SIG inches. was
because Sol Butler, the great Negro,
pulled tendon on his first trial. But
Ter was doing better than Is feet and
appeared sure of world record until
johnson, the hurdler and "Dink"
Templeton. the high jumper. got sec
ond and fourth places for the United
States
De Hart Hubbard and Ed Hamm,
within the past 10 years, consistently
proved themselves the worlds best
broard jumpers. Hubbard, despite a
bad foot, won the Olympic crown in
1924. Hamm set world record of 25
feet, 11ls inches in the 1928 final
American tryouts, and then, on one
of his last attempts, jumped to new
Olympic record Of Is feet A.. inches, at
Amsterdam. This mark should tumble
next August.
The best broad jump in Olympic
competition was not made In the indi-
vidual championship event The late
Robert IeGendre of GEORGETOWN cleared
Is feet 6 inches at Paris in 1924 while
competing in the pentathlon. 1t was
in the same pit that Gator. four years
later, set new world record.
Barber Americas Best.
The American prospects this year
are good, but not exceptional. There
is no one of the class of Hamm or Hub
bard to carry the battle against Nambu
and Gator Perhaps the best candi-
date is Dick Barber, Southern Cali
fornia star. who won the I. c. A. A. A.
A. title with a record leap of IS feet
81 inches last year, and recently did
25-4 in the Fresno relays His best
is 25-7 and he may find the extra kick
necessary to reach the 26-foot mark
AL Bates, the national champion; Ed
Gordon of Iowa and Lemoine Boyle,
who developed rapidly under Lawson
Robertson at Pennsylvania last year,
all are capable of lettering 25 feet
consistently.

D. A. R. DELEGATES
HEAR BECK'S TALK
Pennsylvania Representative
PAYS Tribute to Mother
of Washington.

Representative James NJ Beck of
PENNSYLVANIA, speaking at the Bicen-
tennial service at Washington Cathe-
dral Yesterday afternoon, made a STIR
ring plea to women to restore the
American home to its former status as a
sacred institution, and paid remark
able tribute also to Mary Ball, the
mother of George Washington.
National officers and State regents
of the D. A. r. were among the hun
dreds who filled two chapels of the
Cathedral for the special service.
In the history of the world there are
three leaders Of men who, above all
Others. have dominated human imagi-
nation and awakened human affection, "
said Mr.. Beck. Each of them, by a
curious 91d beautiful coincidence, had
a mother whose name was Mary"
Names Three Mary
There was the first Mary of Nazareth.
Then there was the English Mary, who,
nearly three centuries ago, bore a son
who was destined to dominate the i'm
agination and emotions of man as no
other, except the son of Mary of Naza-
reth. And then there is the Virginia
Mary who, 200 years ago, gave to the
world a son who, by sheer force Of a
noble character, has won its affection
and admiration as few others in record
ed history.
We know all too little of the mother
Of Washington, but in this Bicenten-
NAL year we should not forget one who
was so highly favored among all the
wnmen of history as to be the mother
of George Washington.
Home Greatest Asset.
This age of "f1eeting. idle, moving
picture BRAIN" Mr. Beck admonished,
could profitably recall the lesson Of
these pioneer women, that "the home
is the greatest asset of civilization"
He added, IF the home remain, We
need never despair Of the future Of the
Republic"
Mr. Beck praised George Washington
in the words of Thomas Jefferson. In
a letter written late in Jefferson's life,
the speaker said, was presented the
'noblest pen portrait of Washington OF
which I have any knowledge"
Another national body, the Huguenot
Society of America, also held Bicenten-
nial services at the Cathedral.
