SAN FRANCISCO, March q U,P)
Make Baer would like to see Pri-
mo Camera TRY to step on my
toes"
Mr.. Baer was irate at reports that
Carnera, although outweighing
Loughran SO pounds in last nights
Miami title fight, had used rough
tactics against the little fellow.
I've lost all respect for the cham
pion," Make declared. ITS ridicu-
lous that q man of Cameras weight
should let Loughran or Pauline stay
Is rounds with him.
"Loughran should have had about
the same chance against Camera as
Billy Petrolle would have in the
same ring with me. figured Car
nera would stop him early. I'm glad
I didn't see the fight"
What about Baer'S proposed bout
with Carnera? well, Primo ought
to go out and get himself repu-
tation before he fights me. Other
wise he'll have to agree to take the
challenger's share of the gate. I'm
the one who'll pull in the custo-

HUSKIES HOPE
FOR V|CTO DRY
OVER TROJANS

SEATTLE, March 2. U.P)-The
University of Washington Huskies
expect to defeat the tall, tough
University of Southern Califor-
mia Trojans when they meet for
the Pacific coast conference baS-
ketball championship at Olympic
auditorium, Los Angeles, March
9-l0-12.
Although they will be outweighed
and out-Statured by Southern CAL
ifornia, Washington hopes to win
with a ball-hawking, veteran team
that handles the ball expertly and
hits the basket regularly.
Capt. Harold Lee led the Hus-
kies to their sixth northern divi-
sion championship in seven years,
winning IA and losing only two
games. The losses were at Cor
Wallis to Oregon State. The Hus-
kies beat the Beavers twice in Sc
attic later.
Coach Hec EdmundSon has CEN
tered his pre-series drill on stop
ping Southern California's offense,
with special emphasis on checking
Lee Guttero, high scoring Trojan
center. Reserves have regularly
rehearsed the Trojan scoring plays
-Guttero to Kelly to Elliott to
Guttero for a basket, and Hol-
brooks dribble and flip to Gut
tero for shot under the basket.
Washington's team uses fast
breaking offense which feeds Lee
Bob Galen and Jack Hanover after
a series of expert dribbleS and
quick passes. The HuskieS rely
on a man to man defense.

|CARNERA GETS LITTLE GLORY
IN VICTORY OVER LOUGHRAN

Loughran in the 14th. Then a
bombardment of rights and lefts to
head and body kept him bouncing
off the rope. He was SO dazed at
the bell that he lurched over to
Cameras corner. Bill Duffy, Car
nera's chief second, escorted him
to his own.
Several times in the 18th it
seemed that Loughran's wobbly
knees must buckle beneath him.
No Knockdowns
There we're no knockdoWns. The
only sign of blood same in the
sixth round when one Of Carnera S
huge fists gashed Tommy's scalp.
The United Press score sheet
gave Camera II rounds and Lough-
ran four. Tommy won his in a
row. He began to find the altitu-
dinous range in the third frame.
His speed and footwork enabled
him to pile up enough points from
then on to take the third, fourth,
fifth and sixth rounds. He shook
his huge opponent in the sixth
with a sweeping left hook to the
chin, one of his best blows in the
bout.
Camera forged ahead in the sew
enth and started a clubbing, bat
tering attack that kept the chal-
lenger in retreat during the rest
of the brawl. Loughran's foot
work gradually became slower, his
left jab lost its snap, and blows
to his body brought grimaces to
his face.
The champion was warned sew
eral times for rough tactics. He
stepped on Tommys left foot in
the first and 10th rounds, drove
his elbow into the Philadelphian's
body in the 18th, and tried to
wrestle him to the floor several
times.

nera at the final bell.

makes the result something OF a
toss-up. 1t means that both will
be speeding up from the start OF
the first gong, knowing that they
do not lave to go 10 rounds and
therefore take it easy in the first
few rounds.
The advance seat sale indicates
big crowd will turn out to root
for their favorites. Pacho, who
started his ring career in Ell Gen.
tro, has a large following here,
though Jackson also has his sup
porterS.
Three other good bouts will be
put on before the main event, with
Bobby Leyvas and Pete Bautista ap-
pearing in the semi-final. LeyvaS
has put on number of good bouts
here and is a crowd pleaSer Beau
tiSta, who was substituted for
George Arliss, has strengthened the
card The little Filipino has plenty
of stuff and ought to give Leyvas a
busy time of it.
Pelino Garcia and Ray Miller will
be seen in the special event. These
boys are rather shy on experience
but are rugged and willing, offering
the kind of free-slugging fight
that the fans like to see.
Reno Fernandez, the popular
Brawley schoolboy will takeo n Obie
Miller in the opening bout. Fernan-
dez was a top liner last year and
rates higher spot than the open
er. He was not ready when the card
was first arranged, but agreed to
go on in the opener when it was de-
cided that Jack Brown, originally
| booked, would not do as an Open
ent for Miller.
/ The first bout will be called at
! $3.50 and fans who want to watch
the bouts in comfort are urged to
get in there early, for the Pacho-
Jackson bout has drawn the atten-
ton of all followers of boxing in the

NEW YORK, March 2.-Norman
Thomas and Huey Long will meet
tonight in a rostrum of Mecca Tenn
Pile in what appears to be one of
the most unfair matches since
Dempsey and Carpenter.
Mr.. Thomas is the Socialist
heavyweight champion of America
and said to be one of the soundest
thinkers and most persuasive ora
tors in the business. He holds de-
cisions over many top-flighters. Mr.
Long is the Louisiana state light
weight titleholder. He has been
fighting in and out of Washington
for the past several years with vary
ing success.
IN going out of his class, Mr..
Long is taking the same gamble as
Mickey Walker, Kid Chocolate, and
several other of his contemporar-
les. Mickey was a whale of a mid
dleWeight but had his ears pinned
back with moHotonouS regularity
by the heavies. The Chocolate Drop
was the Chocolate dropped when he
deserted the featherweight ranks
for the larger class.
1t seems to me. that to make a
fair match of the bout, Mr.. Long
should beg ranted a handicap.
| T'onight's bout with Thomas
marks Mr.. Longs first appearance
in New York since last summer
when he was outpointed in main
event at the Sands Point bath club.
Details of that bout were rather
meagre, but it is understood that
Mr.. Long violated the cardinal prin-
ciples of the ring by leading with
: his right and blocking with his
chin. The only favorable criticism
he received after that engagement
concerned his footwork. Several OF
those at the ringside said Mr.. Long
moved away from the scene of ac-

MIAMI, Fla, March 2. The
world heavyweight crown still
perches on Primo Cameras lofty
head. Americas first attempt to
dislodge it failed dismally last
night when the giant Italian
pounded out an easy 15-round de-
cision over little Tommy Loughran.
Ponderous Primo added little to
his laurels in beating the 1874
pound, marshmalloW punching
Philadelphia veteran. His failure
to knock Tommy into the palm
ettoes actually enhanced the next
title thrust an American.
Negotiations are under way to
match one of the two outstanding
American contenders-MaXie Baer
| and Steve HamaS-against the
champion. Both are hard-hitting,
rugged youngsters with plenty of
stamina One OF them is almost
| certain to meet the vast Venetian
in September,
Meanwhile Camera plans a trip

up a few pesos while pushing over
, ancient Pauline UZcudun, against
whom he made his first battle de-
fense in Rome last year, or Victorio
Campolo, who is staging a come
| back
Last nights bout in the Madi-
son Square Garden arena here
probably was the worst champion
ship fight since bare-knuckle days,
with the lone exception Of the Car
nera- UZcudun farce in Rome.
Even the weather conspired to
make this miS-match more dreary.
A light shower fell during the pre-
liminaries. Then old Jupiter Plu-
vius cleared the skies and let the
full moon beam down SO that the
main bout could go on. But when
this was underway he unloosed a
couple of doWnpours that drenched
everyone without umbrellas. 1t
was particularly trying for those
occupants of $40 ringSide seats
who wore evening clothes.
Attendance Flops
The meagre attendance of about
II, 900 fans who paid $4,000 set a
new modern low for heavyweight
championship gates and crowds. 1t
also splashed more red ink on
Madison Square Gardens books
Cameras 40 per cent of the net
receipts will be small and Lough-
rams 10 per cent almost nothing.
Weight, age and Loughran'S lack
of punch told the story. Carnera
entered the ring a 3 to l favorite
in scant betting. Packing 270
pounds on his foot 6ia inch
frame, the champion dWarfed
Tommy, who scaled sc pounds less.
The salmon-pink Philadelphian
who is 80 and has been fighting
for Is years, tired in the late
rounds. He could not call upon
the reserves of youth when Car
nera's great weight and wagon
tongue blows sapped his stamina.
The Italian, &c, was fresh at the
end. Loughran was almost out or
his feet. Only his great heart and
mastery ringcraft enabled him to
weather the 14th and 18th rounds.
Had Camera more of the killer
instinct and more authority in his
punches he could not have failed
to win by a knockout. A glancing

KANSAS CITY, March 2. U.P)--
Tony Canzoneri, New Orleans, de-

night in a match which left the fans
wondering how he happened to lose
the lightweight title to Barney Ross.
Canzoneri laced Nebo by a far
greater margin than Ross earned
against Nebo here last month.
Starting with a rush, the Florida

of the IL round bout and in the

Master, Camden Hunt,
Camden, S. C.
Major w. Austin Wadsworth
established the Genessee Valley
Hunt in 1876. He was Master
until his death in 1918. The
GenesSee Valley is the oldest
Hunt in New York State, ante
dating the famous Meadow
Brook pack by one year.
After Major Wadsworth's
death, Major Goss Hughes be-
came Master. After 1920, Major
Winthrop Charles acted as Mas
ter until his death in 1926,
when James S. Wadsworth and
Ernest L. woodward became
Joint Masters. When James
Wadsworth died, Mr.. Woodward
became Master. He relinquished
leadership in 1888 to Mr.. Will
liam P. Wadsworth, son of the
founder of the Hunt.
The GenesSee Valley has privi-
leges over about 100000 acres,
$4,000 of which are owned by
members of the Wadsworth
families.
Our country is well paneled
with chicken-coops and post-and-
rails, and snake fences abound.
Foxes are plentiful. Farmers
are all interested and cooperate
with the Hunt.
Hunting is by invitation and
subscription, and generally be-
gins about September 20 to con-
tinue as long as weather per-
mits. The Hunt has developed
its own hounds, of which there
are IS couples.
Many of the leading sportsmen
and sportswomen of other
countries" have hunted with
the GeneSsee Valley.

Fox hunting is no innovation
here. 1t came with the early
settlers and has remained ever
since. The present Piedmont
organization is antecedently
identified with the ulany
family.
Col. Richard H. Dulany, Of
Wellbourne, maintained a pri-
vate pack which hunted this
neighborhood for some 20 years
before the war between the
States. When age began to
cramp his activities, his son,
Richard Hunter Dulany, OF
Grafton Hall, took over and i'm
proved the hounds, and the
manner of doing things, and
for nearly 40 years prepared
the way for what we now have.
It was not until the first part
of the present century that he
was forced to give up.
Then came Mr.. Joseph B.
Thomas, Master of the first
nonprivate Cor subScription
Piedmont pack. He carried on
in splendid style for several
years. With his resignation,
there were ups and downs as
the seasons came and went, but
always there was hunting. And,
now, at last, thanks largely to
the efforts of DR.. A. c. Ran
dolph, present M. F.. H., and
Son-in-law of Richard Hunter
Dulany, the hunt is established
on a basis which seems to guar
antee it's future prosperity.
Under DR.. Randolph's aegis,
the organization has been in
corporated, with IS responsible
trustees as its board of di-
rectors; and it has also &C
quired the unique position of
owning a 100-acre farm in
the geographical center of it's
territory. Here the hunt staff
lives in an attractive old
colonial house, with the stables,
and kennels adjacent.
Hay and grain for the hunts
horses come off this farm, and
there is ample paSturage.

has been added and paneled.
Our Fields last year were.
strange as it may seem, in spite
of the economic conditions,
larger than they ever had been,
and indications are that these
will increase this year.

These hounds were all i'm

Reports from farmers are
that there is an abundance of
fox this year.
