ST EVE HAMAS
NOT BOTHERED.
ABOUT CARNERA
BY JACK CUDDY

/ lntleu ITtSS SldAI IICspOAiuCIt
i NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-The box
ing world gasped today at a man
who has been connected with fight
ing for so years swapping his fin
gers at the world heavyweight
championship.
Venerable Charley Harvey, dean
Of American fight managers. an
nounced flatly that he would rath-
err have young Steve HamaS tan
gle with Make Baer than take a
crack at the title.
Mr.. Harvey impressed this fact
upon President John Reed Kilpat-
rick of Madison Square Garden last
night when Colonel Fitzpatrick in
dicated that the garden would like
/ to groom HamaS, recent conqueror
/ of Max Schmeling, to meet the
winner of the Carnera-Loughran
title bout, slated for February %
at Miami.
"It's all quite simple he eX-
planned. Naturally, I'd like to
see Steve win the title. But right
now we are more interested in
making money than in titles. Baer
/ will draw more money as an op-
ponent for HamaS than any other
man in the ring. So why should
We be interested in a match with
! Camera or Loughran, neither Of
whom would draw half as much?'
! Colonel Fitzpatrick suggested that
HamaS start moving toward the
championship in a build-up scrap
With the winner of the King Lev
insky-Walter Neusel bout, Sched-
uled for the garden on March 9.
The soft-spoken Mr. Harvey told
Fitzpatrick that he never heard Of
either LevinSky or Neusel. and that
he was not interested in the title.
He adjusted his Spectacles, tugged
at his dropping mustache, picked up
his cane, and the conference was
over.
For the garden, Hamas appeared
to be the logical contender to build
up. Baer will not do business with
the garden, and King Levinsky fad
ed from the tintype in his recent
Door showing with Charley Massera
NeuSel has yet to acquire a repu-
tation.
Meanwhile promoters outside the
garden are busy negotiating for a
Hamas-Baer bout. Tim Mara, who
staged the Hamas-Loughran and
Baer-S -Schmeling bouts last summer
in New York, offered to match
Steve and Baer at the polo grounds
or Yankee stadium in June.
Promoters in Philadelphia. Chi
cago, San Francisco, Los Angeles
and Mexico City also are angling
for the match.

Three other bouts are carded 70

ought to be q hummer.
Bobby LeyyaS. clever Yuma scrap

Friday night was a hummer from

copped the decision Tony was right
there with a challenge for return.
Murder Wilson, Yuma Negro
flash. will take on Roy johnson of
Wilmington in the six round spe-
cial. Wilson has made great hit
with fans here by his aggressive
ness and willingness to trade
punches with anybody Last week
he nearly took kayoe in the first
round but rallied to win out in the
end.
For the opener Pelino Garcia,
local scrapper will meet up with
Obie Miller. Garcia fought last

him much opportunity. 1t is eX-

 OF NEW LONDON
 MEET NAUCATUCK
High School Game at B0r- Ough " Tonight
 Reserve in Prelim

Naugatuck, Jan 27.--Tnspired by its recent victory over the Warren Harding team the Naugatuck high school basketball five will meet the Bulkeley high school five of New London tonight. The game will be played at the local ''Y". Coach Pete Foley will start his regular lineup, it is expected. Coach Foley said recently that Dick Tuckey was one member of his team who was willing to go where the going is tough and where a player must take some hard knocks. He was referring to the point near the baskets where the Snelees are usually the fiercest.
 At the time there had been no reports about Tuckey but they in- dicate what stand Foley Is taking now that reports as to the desir- ability of the big football leader on the basketball team are heard. Tuckey has been far from perfect as a player but he has been SCOT ing plenty of points and that Is more than others on the team can boast.
 It is expected the crowd at the game tonight will be large be- cause there is considerable interest in seeing whether the locals can keep up their comeback. New Lon- don high Is not expected to be es- pecially tough and the new morale may help the team win tonight.
 There will be a preliminary game at 7:30.

Although he has been known to have been i'll for many months, his death was not thought of as an im- mediate possibility. One of the finest types of Watcr- bury sportsmen, and an ear- nest worker for the promul- gation of athletic activities in the northern section of the city, the influence and good work that "Leity' exerted will be sadly missed. His connection with and promo tion of north end sports, particularly of the North End Thomas club, which was organized to the memory of his brother, Tommy Corideo, who died several years ago, is we'll known. His passing is . distinct loss to Water bury athletics, which he rep- resented so well.
