GREAT SPEED, GRIT
SUbDUE M'LARN|N
Puts WeIter Crown Beside
Lightweight Title in 15-
Round Thriller.
BY ALAN GOULD,
Associated Press Sports Editor.

n IEW YORK, May 29.-
nj Black-haired, flashing
v eyed Barney Ross, sensa-
a tional Jewish fighter,
born on New York'S teeming
East Side, but reared to ring
greatness as a product of Chi
cago's West Side ghetto, stood
out today as a double champion
on a pinnacle never before
scaled in boxing history.
The 25-year-old Chicago youth,
with speed that was as dazzling as
the courage with which he slugged
toe to toe with his hard-hitting rival,
thrilled a vast crowd in Madison
Square Garden Bowl, Long Island,
last night by battering Jimmy McLar-
min to defeat i'll Is stirring rounds,
and thereby added the world welter-
weight championship to the light
weight title he has held for a year.
Sixty-ive thousand fans, nearly
filling the arena, roared their acclaim
to the gallant youngster who ended
the domination of McLarnin over a
long line of Jewish boxers with a
rousing finish and shattered fistic
precedent that has been long stand
ing. Twice before lightweight title
holders stepped out of their class in
quest of the welterweight crown, the
last unsuccessful attempt being made
by Benny Leonard against Jack Brit
ton in 1922. Leonard was among
the first who leaped up to congratu-
late Ross last night.

maker Swan is seeking to match Ken
Overlin, middleWeight champion of
the Atlantic Fleet, with Frank Remus,
champion of the Pacific Fleet, for
June 20 in bout for the all-Navy
title. Overlin, according to Swan, is
ready to go, but whether Remus will
fight will not be known until the end
of the week when the U. S. S.
Tennessee, on which Remus ships,
docks at New York.
A return battle between Lew Field
man, victor over Ernie Rather last
night at the Riding and Hunt Club,

Popular prices will be charged, it
was announced, and no part of the
proceeds will be paid to any indivi-
dual except the fighters. The money
will go for organization activities of
the American Legion, which spent
between $4,000 and $4,000 last year
for material relief. Proceeds from
the boxing shows will be used for
this charity work.
Col. Rice w. Means, department
commander of the. American Legion,
has appointed, in addition to Swan

nishing balm for the slightly disap-
pointed feelings of the Hunt Clubs
master minds today for the young
welterweight, only District scrapper
on the initial pro card bounced right
back into the ring picture last night
Stopped in his last start at Port
ner's Arena. Bowen proved a glass
chin can't whip determination when
he stole the show from beneath the
esthetic schnoZZles OF Lew Feldman
and Joey Costa by scoring a we'll
earned eight-round decision over
hard-hitting Tony Gulotta of New
York.
As much as anything else. absence
of local scrapper in the main event
kept the inaugural from going over
with bang but Bowen's performance
has done much to guarantee at least
one near-future headliner with a
hometown kid angle. Glass jaw an
all, Bowen proved he is ready for big
game.
