Local Battler
Wins 7 Bouts
in Windy City
benson Takes First Fight,
Then Loses: Others in
Action Tonight.
RY VFRN ROXFH
BY VERN BOXELL
Times STAFF Writer

CHICAGO, Feb. 26.-When Ray
Waggoner got sick it was a break
for Billy Sparks, and Billy cashed
in on it.
OF the five Indianapolis Golden
Glovers who battled in first and
second round bouts at the Stadium
here last night substitute Billy was
the only boy to come through and
win brackets in the semi-fnal tus-
sizes Wednesday night.
Little Billy, fighting like cham
pion, outrushed two tough foes In
the opening bout, one of the first of
the 1873 run off last night, he wall
loped Dallas Olson, Sioux City
slugger. In the second. he beat Eu-
gene Statler, Dayton (O) speedSter,
in one of the best bouts of the
evening.
The four Indianapolis district bat-
tiers who fell by the wayside were
Bud Cottey, who dropped close
decision to Wilmer Van Of Green
Bay, Wis; Wilmer Hardesty, feather
weight, beaten by Benny Floyd,
Iowa City; Johnny benson, welter-
weight, and Siegfried Bruggeman,
lightweight, knockout victim of Mike
Gamiere, Cleveland. The Buckeye
slugger cracked Bruggeman on the
chin with a vicious left hook in the
first five seconds and the HooSier
was out or commission like that.
10000 at First Session
benson, 16-year-old battler who
transferred from the novice class
during the elimination tournament
at indianapolis, stepped out in the
first round and knocked off Dale
Huber of Bloomington, Ill Huber,
a clever puncher, couldn't match
Denson'S speedy boxing and the In
dianapolis boy walked off by wide
margin. In a second round battle,
however, Johnny took a point
tumble to Julius Lau of Wisconsin
Rapids, Wis 1t was close deci-
sion, and part of the 10000 people
who witnessed the first night of the
worlds greatest amateur boxing
show rose up in a chorus of diSSen-
sion.
The carnival of clouts staged by
the Chicago Tribune last night was
a spectacle glorious to behold For
the first time in fiStic history, three
rings were going full blast ST.
simultaneously. Side by side with COM
plete lists of OfficialS-timers, ref
erees, judges and seconds-function-
ing, the trio of battle fronts kept
the customers in lather through
out the six hours Of punch and
counter-punch. Buck fever claimed
its share of victims. Several of the
youngsters crawled through the Sta
dunn ropes looking like the man
who didn't know the gun was loaded.
Hutton Favored to Advance
Tonight, one ring will be torn
down, and the middleweightS, light
heavieS and heavyweightS from the
40 sectionalS in eleven states rep
resented will battle. The Indian
apoliS district eRtries in these divi-
sions are Delbert Hutton, Ander-
son, middleWeight; Larry Kirk,
light heavy, and Jack Cofelt, Ft.
Harrison, heavyweight Going will
be tough. The chief Indianapolis
hope rests in Hutton.
It's tough going in this amateur
beak-busting business, and any Of
the boys who get past the opening
night are in line for some class A
back slapping.
Don't be surprised II Billy Sparks,
F. & K. Health Club speedster, steps
out and brings back the bacon.

fast moving basketball squad APP
peared headed for a Western Con-
ference championship today as the
result of cooperation by Indiana,
which defeated Purdue last night,

Purdue, leading the league only a

Hoosier victory. Wisconsin, idle, was
given a full game margin over its
nearest competitors.

to defeat lowly Chicago, Saturday,
leaving the task of unseating them
to the Boilermakers.

TWO PROTESTING
NAl MUSIC HELD
Girl, 20, and Boy, IS, Are
Seized After Disturbance
at Concert.

Their action of protesting against
playing of Nazi music, even though
announcement had Just been made
that the disputed selection would not
be played, landed 2O-year-old girl
and a boy of IS in police headquarters
yesterday.
The two, giving the names of Eva
Pappaport of 431 Kenyon street, and
Leon Siedman of 513 F street, were
booked on charges of disorderly con-
duct. The boy was turned over to
his parents, while the girl was re-
leased after she deposited S25 collat-
eral. They will be arraigned in Police
Court tomorrow.
The episode occurred yesterday
morning near the close of students
concert of alderman music by the
National Symphony Orchestra at Gen.
tral High School and was the climax
of several days of controversy over
what selection should be given recog-
milton as the German national
anthem. A tentative decision to play
the Horst Vessel song, Nazi anthem,
had resulted in protest from several
members of the orchestra, who are OF
Jewish blood and had forced DR.. Hans
Kinder, conductor, to make other
plans.
League Sends Four.
Under the impression that the
Horst Vessel was still on the pro-
gram, the Young Communist League
sent four members to the school yes
terday to distribute pamphlets de-
nouncing Fascism. Hitler and the
Horst Vessel. Police checked the dis
tribution, however, and confscated
the pamphlets.
When the concert started, Miss
Rappaport was seated in the Or
chestra section near the front, while
Siedman was in the balcony, both
remaining quiet until DR.. Kinder had
finished the first six numbers on the
program and had just announced a
final one to include Deutschland
Uber Allies" and Der Tannenbaum. 4"
Although neither of these are Nazi
songs, both Miss Rappaport and young
Siedman jumped to their feet to shout
protests. Down with FasciSm, do
not play the German anthem. 1t
means terror and starvation" the girl
screamed, repeating part of it several
times before an usher and police Of
ficials could quiet her and lead her
from the hall.
So lame that she is forced to use a
cane to walk, the girl was led to the
lobby where other officers were bring
ing the Siedman boy from the gallery.
Both we're then taken to police head
quarters.
German Embassy Silent.
The arrests were made by John
Apostolides, member of the Crime
Prevention Squad, while a detail of
four uniformed officers at the school
was in charge of Capt. James E. Bobo
and Sergt. B. F. McAllister of No. 2
precinct.
No comment on the incident was
forthcoming from the German En-
baSsy. 1t was said there that a
representative of the orchestra had re-
quested help in finding the music for
the Horst Vessel song and that the
embassy had aided in supplying the
score. They denied, however, that
they had asked that it be played
rather than Deutschland Uber Allies. u
They offered no comment on the fact
that the flag of the German Re-
public, a red, white and black tri-
color, was hung over the stage rather
than the NaZi emblem.
A group of children of embassy Of
ficials attended the concert.

length of its promenade deck, but will
