Thousands of anglers visit the mar

Chain Bridge each Spring to snag
herring and shad. many coming from
distant points in all kinds of convey

lined with fishermen during the run

the bass are snagged above Chain
Bridge where the river is narrow.

field last year, is on the toboggan. As
for the infield, Charlie Colbert is the
most important new candidate. Char
lie tries hard to resemble the hero of

made him stiff, and he probably won't
threaten Durocher's grip on the short

He may help to relieve F'risch, who

club with as good chance as any

stirred up and divided in opinion.
Despite Sarron's victory in the
closely fought previous skirmish, fol-
lowers of the Solid-socking Rivers

triumph for the Swarthy Mexican
featherweight, who emerged from
the initial tuSsle with cuts over both
eyes, a cash in his cheek and the
opinion that Sarron fought not ac-
cording to the higher ring etiquette.
The camp of the little Syrian was
in something of an uproar following
Donovan's plea to the District Box
ing Commission asking for "a referee
Zig enough and strong enough to
keep Petey FROM clinching, butting,

Erwin, were chewing tenpenny nails

Petey Improving With Age.


TT IS difficult to conceive feather

to be what Petey is doing. If he con-
quers Rivers it will be his eleventh
consecutive victory Sarron has not
been beaten for more than a year. He
started his streak by whipping Bucky
Burton twice in row, and then car
ried on to victories over Al Foreman,
Benny Bass (tWice), frankie Wallace,
Rivers, Patsy Severe, Baby Manuel
and frankie kid Covelli. Burton
and Covelli were former conquerors of
the Syrian, but he whipped both
handily.
Rivers has been on the shelf since
the first Sarron scrap, nursing his
eye cuts. but he has not been exactly
idle. When Sarron invaded Miami,
Fla, to dispose of Severe, Manuel and
Covelli, he was secuted" by Rivers,
who now thinks he has solved the
Syrian's puzzling style and will punch
out decisive victory.
