CHALLENGERS
SEEK BATTLE
WITH CHAMP

NEW YORK, Jan. 16. W.P)-The
next worlds lightweight champion
ship bout probably will be fought
tween Barney Ross and Lew AM
bers or Sammy Fuller.
Meantime Ross stands suspended
in New York and 20-odd allied
states for not defending his 1885,
pound title within a reasonable
time" The ban was slapped on by
the state athletic commission, which
demands that he box the commits
sion's No. l challenger, Ambers, of
Herkimer, N. Y.
Ambers, however, most industrious
and least timid of challengers, has
filed notice that he wants to box
Fuller, the corking left-hooker from
Boston, who is rated at the top of
the contender list by the Illinois
commission, or the champion. He
has no preference.
An Fuller bout will take
place next month If terms can be
arranged with Fuller, and the win
her will be outstanding in the two
major centers of pugilism, New York
and Chicago.
Ross last defended his lightweight
title in the fall of 1888. Since then
he won and lost the welter cham
pionship in two bouts with Jimmy
McLarnin.

'OUerconfidence
Is Problem For
Central Coach

An athlete suffering from
swelled head induced by too much
confidence in his ability is rarely,
if ever, an asset This malady of
overconfidence has worked its way
into the ranks of the Central I'm
ion high school basketball players
again. according to Coach w. S.
Taylor, who is worried over the
outcome of the game Friday with
Brawley in the northend city.
Central, by virtue of two victor
les over Calipatria and CaleXico, is
riding high these days, but they
are scheduled to meet a Brawley
team much improved over the out
fit which played in the tournament.
More practice and recent addi-
tion to the squad, Burger, an ac-
curate gent who ran up 20 points
for Brawley in their first league
game, scoring higher than one of
their best men, constitute heavy
menaces for Central to overcome.
Taylor has scheduled lot of
work on passing and individual
defense this week. There are too
many bad and intercepted passes,
the coach said, and the work on
defense will stress the covering
Brawley's two crack forwards, Lew
is and Burger.

'FREEzEOUT
CHARGED BY
TRACK CHIEF

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 16. U.P) -
A war" between Aqua Caliente
and Northern California race tracks
is being fomented by the California
racing board, Lou Anger, general
manager of the border track, assert
ed today.
Unwilling to hold March meetings
at Tanforan or Bay Meadows, pro-
moters nevertheless are being per
suaded" to accept an early spring
date by Chairman Carleton Burke,
according to Anger who described
the procedure as a "freezeout" on
Aqua Caliente.
Anger denied that the forthcom-
ing meeting at Aqua Caliente was
planned as competition to California
tracks.
Before we announce our dates"
he said, II talked with Bill Kyne of
Bay Meadows and John Marchbank
of Tanforan and they both assured
me they didn't want any March rae
ing in San Francisco because of the
usual inclement weather. I've talked
TO them since and neither has
changed his mind.
when I explained this to Chair
man Burke, he told me he wasn't
interested in our affairs below the
border, and that he was trying to
guarantee $50 days of continuous
racing in California. This means a
freezeout for us and naturally we
are going to fight that. We have a
100000 plant at the border and
racing was pioneered there"
The meeting at the border oval
will run between February "a and

NEW YORK, Jan. 16. - Parad-
ing through the sports world today:
Polo
America and the world now has
no 10-goal player. Two of Americas
big three, Tommy Hitchcock and
Cecil Smith were dropped from 10
to nine, and the third, Elmer j.
Boeseke, reduced from 10 to eight.
First time since 1922 that the world
has been without 10-goal player.
Seems as though the polo handicap
committee which completed its de-
liberations yesterday might have
made a deft gesture by having
failed to rank Tommy Hitchcock.
The big fellow, dangerously hurt in
one skirmish, saw almost no acti-
vity last year and we'll might have
been unranked because of insuffi-
cient competition"
