tain Of the local Gyros will be none
other than John Mcguire, state am
ateur champion, captain of the
Speedway club team and several
times a member Of Indianapolis ma
tional public links teams. Other
members Of the quintet are Jack C.
Carr, DR.. c. 3. Blakeslee, Paul Gro
zier and himself, Joe Waite. Last
Sunday We encountered Joe and
Johnny in a foursome at the Speed
way. and while signals are worth
naught in golf, it is strongly sus-
pected that the pair Of EN- were
planning a jovial convention, hos
pitality galore, but a real golf argu-
ment for any of the visiting GyroS
who try to take that cup.
ME large silver cup that is I'D
Il this year for the first time is
a beautiful trophy that will go per-
manently to the first club that wins
1t three times. 1t was a gift of the
local Gyro Club. In addition there
will be large silver trophy to go
to the tournament medalist, and if
1t is any news to the invading Gyros.
Joe and Johnny are hopeful as well
as determined that one of them win
that, too. OF course, Joe wants
Johnny TO get it. and vice versa. but
anyway they agree they want it to
stay in Indianapolis.

Ross RegainS
Title Despite
Broken Hand
0ethr0ned MCLarnin May
QUIT Prize Ring and
Settle Down.
BY STUART CAMERON
Iwff~H prrsr G-orfa Fdffnr


NEW YORK. MAY 29.-BarEev
Ross is a better man than jimmy
McLarnin. Barney knows e. SO
DO the 40 600 fans who saw these
t'co great Velterweights slug 10 out
for - rounds al the POlS Grounds
last night.
Today Ross once again Is welter-
weight champion Of the world. and
McLarnin probably has fought his
last fight
Entering the ring an odds-on
favorite. Ross more than lived up 10
predictions made BY almost all the
experts. He carried the fight 10 Nc
Larnin IN the early rounds.
veathered A storm which began
when he broke his hand in the sixth.
and forged on TO an unquestioned
decision in the closing sessions.
Foster Berates Dempsey
There was just one discordant
note today. u was the bleat Of the
aging Pop Foster. McLarnins man.
ager. over the choice Of Jack Demp-
sey as referee.
The minute We saw Dempsey in
there as referee We knew We were
sunk" Pop began Hes been hang
ing around the Ross camp and IS
very friendly toward that crowd.
And anyway hes not a capable,
competent or reliable referee.
Jimmy didn't agree with his boss.
Best referee I ever had IN the ring
with me. was the way he put it.
incidentally. the matter OF Demp-
sey being referee was Of no great
importance. Both judges voted for
Ross, so Dempsey's vote was need
less. Besides. Aunt Minnie could
have handled that fight. for the
referee had almost nothing 10 do
except keep up with mis- score card.
On the few occasions that the boys
clnched they separated as soon as
Dempsey walked toward them.
Never once did he actually pull
them apart.
DiscOunting Pops feelings and
remarks entirely. it's more than
likely that McLarnin will fight no
more. He said az his training camp
that ne was getting ready TO quit.
He has plenty Of money and wants
TO marry and settle down.
Precedent Holds True
Ross future is highly unsettled
He may decide to campaign to re-
gain the lightweight title, or he
may devote his energies to the
wclters. He won't fight for a couple
Of months. anyway. The bone broken
was the second metacarpal, which
is the large bone just back Of the
index finger.
The SiX-year-old ring precedent
thai no welter champion makes an
initial successful defense of his
crown held true once again in the
third meeting of Ross and Nc
Larnin. Jimmy was champ when ne
met Barney one year ago. and the
Chicago boy lifted the crown. Jimmy
won 10 back last September.

CITY TREES PERILED
BY BAG WORM PEST
Warning Sounded by State
EntomoIogiSt.

Frank Wallace, state entomologlst,
today said that Indianapolis trees
are heavily infested with bag worm,
known formally as thyridopleryx
ephemeraeforpns, and that they
constitute threat to nearly all
foliage.
The worms are not as dangerous
as they might be, however, because
the female does not fly and, there
fore, their distribution is limited.
Nevertheless, they can and do
strip trees and are practically i'm
pervious to all encouragement ex-
cept heavy doses Of lead arsenate
poisoning in the spring, hand-pick-
ing and burning in the winter, or a
certain kind of insect.

Indiana Backs Stand

Persons on relief rolls in Indiana
have been urged to take work on
farms since nearly year ago,
Wayne Coy, Governors Unemploy-
ment Relief Commission director,
said today.
1t was felt that in this way many
of them could obtain work which
would not oblige them to depend on
relief jobs. Mr.. Coy pointed out,
however, that the fact that men
doing temporary farm labor would
not be excluded from relief rolls
later on, unless by doing so they had
managed to save enough money to
suffice for their needs.
