 .Rossi, who wound up his train7 ing here Sunday under the direc- ton of Sam Rose, his mafiager. who came on from Newark, pre- diets that he will knock Moore out.

Donald Dinnie McCorkindale, heralded in advance cables as the South African lion. was uncaged for the first time on American shores against Patsy Perroni, Cleveland's machine gun heavy weight, in the main event. Perroni plugged Donald so hard and so oft en that Referee Patsy Haley felt sorry for McCorkindale and hand ed him the 10-round decision.
 Don Got Two
 Haley bestowed this present aft CT the two judges disagreed on, the verdict. Judge Billy Jacobs was so taken aback at seeing British heavyweight in an upright, anti Scott position at the end of q bout that he voted for McCorkindale, and the breach of British heavy weight tradition obtained . draw from Judge Abe Goldberg.
 The modest gathering of 1000 cash customers, who paid about $5,000, roared its digapproval, and most of the boxing writers, who had already started typing bulletins telling of Perroni's victory, were taken aback.
 This questionable victory won for the South African the hollow honor of meeting Jack sharkey at the Garden october 31.
 McCorkindale put up much bet ter fight than expected against Perroni who had entered tho ring Q 2-to-1 favorite. The United Press score sheet gave Perroni i've rounds. McCorkindale four and one even. Tho African was march, Ing to victory until a hard right hook caught him in the temple in the ninth round, staggering him. A few seconds later another right hook to the jaw had the curley- headed, squars-shouldered British Although McCorkindale fought back gamely, t hese two blows slowed him up so that he lost the ninth and 10th rounds.
 Not So Had
 The South African. who knocked out Larry Gains in his last Euro pean fight, was impressive during most of the bout. Fighting from | auarter-crouch he displayed an ale most impregnable defense against Perronls buil-like rushes and wild hammcrings. His darting left jal, had the Cleveland Italians nose bleeding in the second round and his mouth dripping blood during most of the remaining sessions. His short punches beat Perroni at in- fighting and his overland right to the head was damaging.
 McCorkindale proved he could the best of the bout, when Perroni take 1t in the savage third round, rocked him with a barrage of right and left hooks to the head. The gritisher emerged from the weiter of blows and landed a crushing overland right on the Italians jaw that knocked him into the ropes. This round was even.
 McCorkindaie weighed 191 1-2 pounds; Perroni 193.

 The historic Old Glory Sale, scheduled to be held November 27- 30 in New York as in years past, Is now being regarded as the next step in the transformation of what was once thought to be a dying sport into the front rank of horse racing. The remarkable prices which trotters and pacers brought at auction in Lexington, Ky, during the recent Grand Circuit meeting there, insure like success here at the Old Glory, according to harness horse veterans.
 Comeback De Luxe
 "When 1t Is realized that the average price of the 223 horses sold at the Lexington sale totaled $40, or about one-third more than was anticipated, there can be no doubt but what the trotting sport is staging the greatest comeback of modern times" l.. Roland Harri- man, president of the Grand Cir cult and chairman of the Trotting Horse Club, said yesterday.
 The Kentucky sale at Lexington, climaXing eight stirring Grand Cir cult race cards in as many cities, brough new buyers into the auc- ton ring, us well as drawing back to the harness horse fold many enthusiasts who had drifted away in years past. With many new faces among owners, With former owners, trainers and drivers re- turning to the sport and with all of the veterans remaining steadfast, not only were higher prices bid for the horses on sale, but every equine led out was bid on and sold.
 R. J. "Dlck" Reynolds, heir to the tobacco fortune of his family, and one of the youngest and most enthusiastic devotees to harness racing, paid the top price for a yearling at the Kentucky Sale when | he bid $8,000 for Calumet Fitanin. | W. N. Reynolds, the young mans | uncle, and proud owner of Mary | Reynolds and Meda, among other stars in large stable, bid $4,20O for Sumatra, 2:02 Id, and Sl,7OO | for Station Belle, 2:04 3-4, both brood mares, at the Lexington auc- tion.
 Real Money
 "Such prices, together with the $15,000 paid by Hanover Shoe Farms for Peter the Brewer, and $5,G00 for TruaX for shipment abroad, doesn't make 1t look as IT the harness sport had ever heard of the depression" Mir Hartman said yesterday. Incidentally, MT Harri- man bought Charm, 2:04 1-2, for $1,S75 and Catherine, 2:051-4, for $1,300, both brood mares, at the Lexington sale.
 Among the oldsters who have come back to racing a harness horse stable, after q lapse of years. is b. J. Baker, St Charles, Illinois, who won fame by owning Winne- peb, 1857 3-4, champion pacing gelding. He re-entered the fold at Lexington by purchasing Calu- met Frolic. yearling, for $2,100, among other bids.
 The old Glory Sale, which ends its four-day show at the 94th Street Armory again this year on Thanksgiving day, will put on the block all of the Walnut Hall and Hanover Shoe Farms stock of yearlings, among other breeding establishments stock yet to be heard frim. Calumet farm. us- ually well represented at the Old Glory, disposed of all its trotters and pacers at Lexington, the aver age for the 1855 head being $523.
