- HOVED back in seventh place

jinx-pursued Nationals today found
ray of hope in their darkest hour.
Said ray is furnished by hitherto
unkind schedule, which calls for the
American Leagues doormats, the
Browns, to open five-game invasion
tomorrow at Griffith Stadium. The
series, incidentally, will be inaugurated
by a double-header.
The Browns visit is regarded JOY
ously by the Griffmen, who today
were to bid farewell to Mickey Coch-
rane's rising Bengals. The Browns
have been instrumental, to a great
extent, in keeping the Nationals in
the league this season.

sacrificed. Newsom, faster with each
appearance since he has been back in
the game, then got rid of Owen, but
Elon Hogsett, who relieved Rowe in
the Washington eighth, dumped a

Joe BIG NUMBER"
| AFTER UPSET WIN
Stops New York Ring Star
in Seven Rounds-Legion
Loses on Good Show.
BY JOHN b. KELLER.


ROSPERITY may linger around
- the corner for the American
Legion of the District in the
= boxing business, but California
Joe Rivers overhauled it last night.
The West Coast whirlwind put him
self in line for a lucrative ring an
gagement hereabout when he scored
a stunning upset with a technical
knockout over Mike Belloise, high
ranking New York feather, in the fea-
ture bout of the veteran organizations
initial fight venture of the season.
With rival promoters overlooking
no likely drawing card as they strug-
gle to keep out of the red with their
two-shows-a-week program, Rivers,
again high in the esteem Of the local
cash customers after his startling
success, looks good number to both
parties and he is in a position to make
them pay plenty for his services.
Rivers, never a boxer but ever a
puncher, was so free with his blows
last night that BelloiSe went away
after seven rounds of gruelling pun
ishment in the bout that had been
scheduled to go 10. Almost Continu-
ally on top Of the New Yorker and
pounding him soundly about the body
at close quarters, Rivers had his op-
ponent staggering after the fifth.
Belloise "Out" Seven Minutes.
AN UNDERDOG before the fight, the
= West Coast lad, with his weight of
1902 giving him an advantage of AZ
pounds over the highly-touted New
York boxer, put the finishing touch to
heart just before the seventh round
closing bell. Belloise wabbled as he
walked to his corner, and when the
bell for the eighth sounded he was
unable to get to his feet.
The feather, who not long ago had
given Baby Arizmendi a great fight
and has to his credit wins over a
number of highly-rated battlers, sat
dazed for a minute. Then with his
seconds working over him frantically
Belloise tainted. He had been bleed
ing from a cash over his left eye, a
wound inflicted by Rivers in the first
round. After he tainted blood frothed
from his mouth.
Beloise was lifted from his seat and
placed prone on the canvas. There
he lay for seven minutes before he
revived sufficiently to leave the ring.
And than he hod m he oSSiSfad hv
both his handlers. The big number
from New York was a badly beaten
boxer.

Leg Muscles Knot After Blow.

X UHEL'S injury was regarded as less
~ serious, though none the less
painful The first sacker was hit on
his right leg, above the knee, and he
continued to play without any ap-
parent harmful effects until a couple
of innings later, when he doubled to
open the ninth.
Then the leg muscles knotted and
Kuhel barely was able to run to second
base. Red Kress replaced him on the
sacks and on first base, and If Kuhel
is unable to play today, the red-headed
handy man was to fill his post. Kress,
now listed as a pitcher, handled four
chances in fine fashion yesterday.
It was tough ball game to lose
yesterday. In one big inning, the
sixth, the Griffs socked Rowe for half
a dozen runs and held a 6-to-4 lead
going into the eighth. But Hadley.
who had been pitching brilliantly
after the second inning, wilted from

first base, and three balls on Goose

terday in Cecil Travis and Joe Kuhel.
Travis, seemingly out for the major
league record for getting hit by
pitched balls, stopped one of Rowe's
swiftest with the socket of his right
elbow and was forced to retire from
the game.
At first it appeared more serious
than the usual run of bruised elbows,
and it was feared the socket bone had
been Clipped. The youngSter was
taken to hospital after the game for
x-ray pictures, but these showed the
hurt to be only bad bruise. There
was hope that Travis would be able

Rivers Win Decisive,

THERE was nothing huky about
Rivers victory. He took six Of
the seven rounds the bout lasted &C
cording to the scorecards of Referee
Denny Hughes, one of the two judges
and The Star. The fourth round was
recorded as even on these tallies, but
one judge gave this round to Benoise
by a shade.
Belloise showed little of the boxing
ability that had won fame for him in
New York's Golden Gloves ranks and
in his professional career. Occasion
ally he managed to outmaneuver Riv-
ers, but most of the time the New
York boy was trying desperately to
cover himself. When Belloise pro-
tected his head, however, Rivers bore
in with battering body punches and
when the New Yorker dropped his
guard his head was rocked.
The New Workers. manager at
tempted to alibi his charges defeat
with the explanation that Belloise had
been made Ill by the heat earlier in
the day, but the District Boxing Com
missions physician gave Belloise a
clean bill of health an hour before the
fight began.

was not long in learning what a mis-
take he had made.
There was nothing f1ashy in support
OF the main go, although a straight
knockout ended one of the prelimi-
naries and a technical knockout closed
another. In a scheduled six-rounder
between two colored fighters, Meyer
Rowan, New York near-welter with
a solar plexus punch, knocked out
frankie Dillon of Baltimore after IS

second round of the semi-final Andy

Legion viii Try Again.
A S AN initial venture this season for
\ an organization that failed to
promote fights successfully last year,
it was a good show the American
Legion put on. Although the prelim-
inaries were perhaps below the stand
ard here, those engaged in them pro-
vided the fans with action and all at
hand seemed satisfied with what had
been offered.
Artistically, the American Legion's
first effort at a comeback In the box
ing business might well be termed q
success. Financially, however, 1t was
anything but that. The show attracted
839 to the arena at Sixth street and
Florida avenue northeast, but only 664
paid in s603.80 to look on.
As the principals of the main go
received $500 each, it is easily seen
that the Legion was left holding the
well-known bag. But Howard Living
ston, former District licensed referee,
who Is managing for the veterans
organization, believes the deficit will
be more than made up in the next
show.
The American Legion, according to
Livingston, will try again next week.

For a while they got along won
derfully. Donald actually worshiped
the ground she trod upon with her
tiny, high-heeled shoes. And for the
first time in her life, Janice could
buy what she wanted and merely
write a check for it. But the pull Of
the old life was bit too strong for
her in the end.
MIGUEL was an INDECENT dancer
A'A she met one afternoon at one
of her old friends homes. At first
sight there was marked attraction.
Miguel, though broke, made up for
mere indulgence with plenty of charm.
And Janice proved to be a perfect
foil. with her blonde loveliness, for
his magnetic Latin swarthiness They
began being seen places together, and
naturally, Janice paid the bill.
It was all worth it, though, espe-
cially as Janice didn't have to work
for the money. And Donald never
asked her what she did with her time.
But one day he came to her with
bundle of Cancelled checks, all made
out to Miguel, and asked what they
were for.
Janice thought fast. "I've been
taking dancing lessons" she informed
him. II think a woman should have
some sort of a career" To her re-
lief, he dropped the subject after
agreeing with her. She made q
mental note to be more careful in the
future in her affair with Miguel.
Donald was quiet, but she knew his
thoughts ran deeply. It would be no
less than calamity If Donald found
out and got himself divorce! Shed
had enough dancing to last her for
several lifetimes The mere thought
caused her beautiful form to shudder.
THE payoft came one afternoon
when Janice, as she knew 1t
pleased Donald, was waiting for him
to return from the Office. Through
the glass front door she saw him COM
ing in with Miguel! Her heart
jumped couple of beats while she
waited for the door to open.
Donald introduced them after he
had kissed Janice. His eyes held an
inscrutable look. 81 looked your in
structor up, Janice" he told her, "and
offered him a position here so that
you won't be put to the bother Of
going out every day. When you think
you're ready. I'll arrange for your
professional debut"
Janice felt murder in her heart for
the suave mercenary who had sold
himself to the enemy. But all she
could say was Thanks" as she
pictured her future. in which she
would have to make good as q dancer,

When she finished her second year
In high school, Janice decided that
she had had enough. One day she

from their hiding place in the room
she shared with one of her sisters,
and boldly announced that she was

IF SHE counted on defiance from
the family. she was to be disap-
pointed. Her going was almost well
come to the overworked parents. 1t
would mean one less mouth to feed.
So when Janice walked out of the
door she slipped out of their lives as
casually as she would remove her
well-worn coat. She was on her

She rented a room on Seventy
second street and sat down on the
hard bed to figure her next move.
Her assets consisted chiefly Of her
good looks, of which there we're un-
deniably plenty, a fair education, and
an ingrained ambition to get to the
top Of the heap.
It wasn't long before she made
some friends in the rooming house
where she was staying. She learned
from two of her new girl friends, who
worked in the chorus Of one of the
shows downtown, something about the
ins and outs of the business.
They took her along with them
when they went to work one day and
introduced her to the dance director,
who, probably more influenced by her
fresh beauty and the electric jolt Of
her big violet eyes than by her ability,
put her name on the pay roll as a
pony. From then on her rise was
more spectacular and rational

INSIDE of two years Janice was

tainly wasn't hard.
