Jimmy DeForest
 Dies Alone

(Contfnued from Page 1)
 was a member of one of the first circus trapese acts. He was the youngest of the DeForest troupe of aerial artists. His parents allowed his hair to grow in long yellow curls.
 Trapese performers used no nets in those days, and when Jimmy reached London with the circus at the age of 12 he ran away. His first stop was Southampton where his hair was cut for the first time. He worked his way to the United States and took another circus job.
 T was g sort of a chambermaid to elephants and leopards," he said years later. T could have done trapese work but I didn't really like it and didn't want to stay
 DeForcst was only lad when he turned to boxing. He was fairly successful with his fists. His fights were with bare-knuckies or light gloves and took place in ob- scure dives in New York's Bow cry. Boxers won no fancy purses in those days. Their pay consist cd of the money thrown into the ring. Y
 Jimmy went to Bridgeport, Conn. one day, to fight Pete Mccoy, a promising heavyweight. Before the fight, however, he decided there was more money in acting as fighters man." which consist ed mainly in sponging the fighter. Thus he became Q second to Pete, and 1t was while they were in Bridgeport that they first saw tho great John L. Sullivan.
 DeForest trained many a boxer. including Joe Cans, George Dixon, Joe Walcott, Kid Mccoy, Tommy Ryan. Pal Moore and Luis Angel Firpo.
 He split with Firpo because the latter would not pay him the money Jimmy demanded, and Firpo won no light after that.
 DeForest promoted the Tom Gibbons-Gene Tunney fight, the bout in which the latter won his first real recognition.
 Jimmy's Long Branch home was |'something of . shoy place, and was well cared for until the death Q few years ago, of his wife. The funeral services will be held at the home on Thursday evening.

EX-HOYA GR|DMAN
TACKLER ON MAT.
Cordovano to Meet Snappy
Youngster, Winters, in
First BoWser Show.

N UGH of the cleverness and
I'M power that formerly added
V punch to Georgetown Uni
versity's foot ball teams will
be exhibited at Boiling Field Armory
week from tonight, when the Boiling
Field Athletic Association sponsors its
inaugural all-star wrestling parade.
Sam Cordovano, smashing guard who
was prominently mentioned in ALL
American selections during the regime
of Lou Little at the Hilltop, today had
been added to the list of principals who
top-line the card. Furthermore, he lines
up against an exceptionally live young
ster in Danny Winters, Beloit Wis,
product.
Serving as line coach at Columbia
University during the foot ball season,
Cordovano has made considerable head
way since signing up with the Paul
Bowser interests. So much, in fact,
that he now is considering abandoning
foot ball in favor of his newer and more
lucrative profession.
On the mat, it is claimed, Condovana
makes full use of his gridiron expert
ence, specializing in his own version Of
the flying tackle"
Another supporting feature to the
twin attraction featuring Karl Pojello
and Billy Bartush against Rudy LaditZi
and Tommy Texts, respectively, finds
Charley Strack, former Olympic cham
pion, engaging George Harden Of At

CLOSELY MATCHED
WRESTLERS BILLED.
Odds Nil When Kotsonaras
Meets Steele Thursday
Night at Auditorium.

= MACK on the heels of last weeks
Szabo-Roebuck tussle comes an
other match that will bring to-
gether a pair of wrestlers obvi-
ously so evenly matched that neither
will be a favorite Thursday night at
the Washington Auditorium.
It will be almost a toss-up when
George KotsonaraS and Ray Steele op-
pose in one Of the two feature matches
if the records of the last year may be
taken as any criterion OF their respec-
tive abilities. Both lose consistently
only to Champion Jimmy Londos,
though Steele has been beaten twice
by Jim Mcmillan.
Kotsonaras is comparatively new to
local mat fans, though a veteran OF
the mat game. For a while he had
hung up his tights and performed as
tough gent in the movies. Then
when the talkies cut short his hlm
career he once more joined the ear
scramblers, and since has dropped YER
diets only to Londos.
The second finish match Of the card
will find Frank Spears, reported to be
a greatly improved mailman, and Tiny
Roebuck opposing. Spears is a former
Georgia Tech foot ball star, while Roe
buck won all-American grid honors at
Haskell Institute.
The trio of 3o-minute preliminaries
will contain two new faces in George
Mcleod and Paul Harper. DR.. Ralph
Wilson will oppose Harper, while NC
Leod will meet Benny GinSberg.
In the other prelim, which possibly
will be the best of the lot, Fred Grob-
meier will tackle Cy Williams.
Women with escorts will be admitted
free. Tickets are available at the An
napolis Hotel.

fandom will be uncovered
at the Ritchie Coliseum tonight
at $50 o'clock, when a scheduled
36-round card of all-star bouts is
unfolded, including four eight
round attractions and a sizzling
four-rounder.
Probably the most distinguished
gathering ever to witness a box
ing show in this section will at
tend. Attracted partly by the
elegant background offered by the
pretentious Ritchie plant, nation
ally prominent figures have made
reservations for choice seats.
From start to finish tonight's should
rank with the finest bouts ever staged
in the South Atlantic area.
Even the opening four-rounder, which
sends Baltimore joey Schwartz into
action against Pete Powell, Newport
News featherweight, smacks Of class.
Schwartz is a human buzz-saw and
can be counted upon to make fight Of
1t every minute.
DROBABLY the nights high light will
+ result when Bobby Burns, Balti-
more's pleasing lightweight, re-
Sumes his feud with Louie Jallos,
Cleveland's up-and- coming youngster.
Burns was the recipient of a dis
puted decision over Jallos at Portner's
Arena recently. So pronounced was
the dissensior1 caused by that verdict,
in fact, that the return go was arranged
through popular demand.
Jallos apparently failed to extend

however, he Will be pegging both hands

Despite the side-tracking of Antol
Kocsis, due to injury, Dick Welsh should
furnish rare entertainment in his clash
with Mkt Gelb, a leading contender for
the worlds featherweight title.
THOUGH outweighed by several

of defeating Jimmy Bronson's
protege. Gelb, however, Is in great
trim and ready for some hot mixing.

20-year-old Eric Lawson meets a wise
veteran in Vincent Forgione, AL Iippe's

Willing Billy Strickler may be
counted upon to make fight of it in
the curtain raiser, but will be fortu-
nate to outscore Al Trainor, another
Lippe-managed light-heavyweight.
TRAINoR, a 22-year-old with a
J. knockout wallop, may find it
equally difficult to stow away the
