CHICAGO, June 2.-Racehorses
are tickle, but the winner of tomor-
rows American derby should be one
of four colts - Head Play, Mr.
Khayyam, Charley O., or Gold Ba-
sis.
Head Play is all horse. He prov
ed that in the Kentucky Derby and
the PreakneSs. His bad race in the
Wood Memorial I throw out entire
ly because racehorses are tickle.
Mr.. Khayyam is the colt I would
like to ride tomorrow. rode in a
race against him when he was a 3
year-old at Belmont park. He was
beaten by nose but he looked like
the makings of a great horse.
Charley o., the Chicago colt, will
be in the money but I don't think
he's quite good enough to win. Gold
Basis. Make Hirsch's entry, is the
dark horse of the race. You remem-
Der how Make brought Gusto out
west last year and won both the
American derby and Arlington clas-
sic. When Make gets horse ready
for big stake, he's sure to be in
the contention.
On form I pick the race as fol-
lows:
l. Head Play; 2. Mr. Khayyam;
3. Charley o.
The Importance Of jockeys in a
big race is more than the public
sometimes realizes. Head Play was
beaten in the Kentucky derby be-
cause of the over anxiety Of his
rider. Lee Humphreys, the western
jockey who rides him tomorrow, will
have to ride a perfect race to win.
don't know who's going to ride
Mr.. Khayyam, but I know that Cor
bett who rides Charley o will get
the very best his mount has in him.
If the race gets down to duel OF
Jockeys, Corbett will win on Char
ley o, even though he may not
have the best horse in the race.
Of the other entries the only
one I give an outside chance is
Trace Call. The rest are just lit
tie out of their class; but, of course,
it's still a horse race and sometimes
a Percheron can win running
race in the fastest company.

was a master at this blow. He has
yet, he will tell you, to encounter a
chin tougher than his head, or a
stomach that could stand up be-
fore his left knee.
Why. then, if Johnston's head is
so powerful, did ne fear Carnera?
Primo is too big" he explained.
TOO powerful. I would have TO
climb an oak tree to reach his chin.
I would be helpless as a one-leg-
ged man at 4 kicking match"
If Carnera was such a terror
what chance did Sharkey have?
"a great chance. Jack is a great
fighter. The fight between those
two will be the most magnificent
of all time. It will make Dempsey's
tea party on June 8 seem as gen.

NEW YORK, June 2.-KnoWing
that James Joy Johnston IS highly
Jealous of his position as a boxing
promoter and would get up as early
as y noon TO prevent rival out
whiting him, we fell TO wondering
today whether he would spar sew
erai rounds with Sharkey and Car
nera, as Dempsey did with Baer
and Schmeling.
Personally, we cou-dn't figure out
how he could side-step the obliga-
ton, even though he would have to
concede around 200 pounds to both
men. 1t would be too sweet a piece
of ballyhoo TO miss. So We called
Mr.. Johnston. and asked him how
about il.
''Lissen, Sweetheart" Mr. Johns
ton said, do you think I'm crazy?
No, I'm not going to box Sharkey
or Carnera. Not even one round"
We asked him how he'd explain TO
his friends the fact that Dempsey
was one up on him.
They'll understand. Dempsey was
in there with a coupla mugs; he
couldn't get hurt. Why, I'd fight
either of those Makes in a tele-
phone booth. But Carnera or Shar-
keyi I wouldn't last minute.
Neither would Dempsey. Either one
of 'em could take Dempsey on and
run him out of the state
Johnston's refusal TO meet Car
nera and Sharkey marked a turn
ing point in the cocky little cock
ney's career, for it was the first
time since he quit molding tea bis
cults in a bakery years ago to take
up fighting that he had ever ad-
mitted he was afraid of anything.
They still talk about the manner
in which Mr.. Johnston, who never
weighed in at more than 135, used
to handle Lefty the Rat, Kid Drop
per. Louie the Blood, and other
choice hoodlums, when he was pro-
noting the old garden. His favorite
punch in those days was what was
technically known as the grab-him-
by the lapels and butt-him-

PACIFIC COAST
LEAGUE GAMES
By United Press

The steady, robust arm Of young
Johnny Babich promises to pull
him into higher company before
very long.
1t was working with even, rhyth-
mic precision yesterday when three
major league scouts watched the
young hurler hang up his eighth
win of the season and give the
Mission Reds an even break in the
series with Sacramento. The score
was to 2.
Babich cut the Senators down
with six hits. He controlled his
smoke ball with ease. Not Sac
ramento batter reached first base
on a walk. Bordagary, whose hit
ting has been sensational in the
current series, was the only batter
who could solve his delivery, his
two hits bringing to IL the number
he has annexed in 16 times at bat
Babich IS performance was observed
by Cincinnati, st. Louis Browns
and Brooklyn Scouts.
Koupal, star Portland hurler, al
so was in fine form. He allowed
only six hits in leading the Beav-
ers to a z to 2 triumph over Los
Angeles, and preserving their firm
grip on the league leadership. The
Beavers piled on Fay Thomas fol
five runs in the third frame, driv.
ing him to cover and clinching the
decision. Lillard, Los Angeles thirc
baseman, hit for the circuit.

land by nosing out the Oakland

three runs without a single hit il

that break, Salinsen probably woult
have emerged a victor over Camp
bell, Hollywood pitcher.
Sewell and Caster interrupted
San Francisco's IS batting orgy which
had extended through three game
by holding the Seals to eight hits
Nevertheless, the Seals finished
victor over Seattle. 8 to 7, by push
ing the winning run across in tn
ninth. San Francisco had to over

Maggio-Laundry
Game Postponed

Another postponement was an
nounced this morning for the game
between Maggio's Fat Boys and
the Valley Steam Laundry which
was to have been played tonight.
Inability of several of the Laun-
dry players to be on hand tonight
caused this postponement. The
game was to have been played last
night but owing TO graduation ex-
ercises at the Wilson school.

OLEA-AUSTIN
BOUT TONIGHT

An argument of long standing
will be settled tonight at the local
arena when Blackie Olea and Al
fred Austin tangle in the main
event on the fight program Pete
Buzukus is serving to the brethren.
From all pre-fight dope this
ought to be real scrap as both
boys know what it is all about and
on the side have little grudge
which has to be settled. Picking
winner is a tough assignment but
the fans will know they have seen
a real set-to before the last round
is over Each boy will be trying to
slip over a haymaker. so that means
they will be on their toes all the
time.
The other eight round bouts on
the program ought to provide plen-
ty of excitement with such scrap
pers as Art Weston and Guy Nc
Kinney appearing in the semi
windup; frankie Brown and Memo
Perez in the special event with
Manuel Ruiz and Lius Silva meet
ing in the opener.
Pete thinks he has a real bunch
of scrappers lined up for tonight'S
show and the fans ought to see
enough real fighting to last them
for some time.
The first fight will be called at
$50 O'Clock sharp, so get there early
before all the good seats are taken.
1t was expected today that
Charlie Ike will make his debut as
boxing referee at tonight IS bouts,
having been licensed recently by
the state athletic commission.
Charlie has had considerable ex-
perience as third man in the ring,
dating back to his army days, dur
ing which he was also a good light
weight boxer. He asserts that he
was among the top-notchers at the
camp where his outfit trained in
Arizona.
The classification is correct. Al
though Charlie has a bay window
now he maintains he was a light
weight when Uncle Sam was his
boss.
