LEAGUE GAMES
BY United Press

Master-minding by Oscar Witt,
skipper of the Oakland entry in the
Pacific Coast league race, kept the
Oaks on top of the circuit by one
and one-half game margin today.
The Oaks were on the SkidS when
Oscar applied the shot in the arm
that stepped them up. They had
lost one to Portland, two out Of
three to Los Angeles. and two
straight to Seattle entering the
first game of yesterdays double
header.
Witt looked over the bench, picked
out Red Worthington and sent him
into the outfield in place of Stan
Keyes, the Oaks slugger. Red had
two runs and one hit in the opener
and the Oaks won 81. The Oaks
won the nightcap, AS. The double
victory enabled the pacesetters to
split the series with the sixth place
team.
Los Angeles and Hollywood divid-
ed their Sunday double bill. Nelson,
Angel ight-hander, was boss of the
opener, giving only seven hits for
an 81 victory. Lefty Hebert took
the pitching peak for the Stars in
the windup and blanked Los An
Eeles, 30.
The San Francisco Seals won a
doubleheader at the expense OF
Sacramento. Stitzel and Densmore
collaborated to pitch the Seals to a
6-3 win the opener. Mails and
Desnmore worked the windup, win
ming 5-4 on home runs by Manager
Frank ODoul and Joe Marty.
The Mission Reds also scored a
double victory, dropping Portland
twice. by scores of So, 81.
The players enjoyed their usual
Monday holiday today. On Tuesday
when the series resume, the Mis-
sions will be at Seattle, Hollywood
at Portland, Sacramento at Los An
geles, and Oakland at San Fran

GRUDGE BOUT
To BE STAGED
HERE FRIDAY

On Friday night valley wrestling
fans viii attend a class in science
at the FL Centre arena. They will
work out the problem as to what
happens when an irresistible force
Tied Christy1 meets an immovable
body (Vincent Lopez. The answer
to that question may be combus-
ton. which means that both the
irresistible force and the immovable
body go up IN smoke. And, if it
follows that wherever there is
smoke there is fire. this will be the
hottest, most torrid bout ever to be
witnessed by a ''rassling" fan.
Christy, last week, continued his
match on the way to the dressing
room and landed in the Imperial
county hoosegow after staging a
one-man riot. Local and state police
had their hands full quieting the
enraged Christy and if his en-
thusiasm continues, it will probably
take the riot squad to hold him
down Friday night.
Promoter Contos had no trouble
signing these men for the main
event to a finish for this week. Both
were anxious to get back into the
ring. even without an audience, and
insisted that the promoter instruct
the referee to stay clear Of both
contestants and let them work out
their own salvation with no holds
barred.
This promises TO be real grudge
match. without benefit Of publicity,
and they will 20 at each other tooth
and nail, hammer and tong until
one or both are rendered hors de
combat.
Matros Kirilenko, the former I'm
perial Russian cossack who appear
ed here on Promoter Contos' open
ing card, returns to meet Ernie
Dusek, the most famous Of TIE -four
Dusek brothers, in the semi-tina!

event and Kimon Kudo, the LII

BETTING STILL
FAvORS ROSS
Welterweight Title Bout To Be
Staged Tomorrow Expected
To Pull In Heavy Gate
BY STUART CAMERON
'nited Press staff Correspondent


NEW YORK, May 81 UP)-Sum-
mer weather and mounting interest
indicated today a gate of more than
S2e0,000 for tomorrow nights third
title tilt between Jimmy McLarnin,
welteIweight champion, and Barney
Ross at the Polo Grounds.
When the dark-haired Chicago
boy wrested the title from Jimmy
last May %, the gate was Sl96,0
BAD weather and postponements
dropped the second gate to S145,-
600, when the Pacific Coast Irish
man regained the crown last Sept
II.
Tickets sold briskly today when
the two boxers completed prepara-
ti0ns for their 15-rounder with light
limbering exercises at downtown
gymnasiums. They broke training
camps in the CatSkiils over the
weekend ana both we're impressive
yesterday in their final downtown
boxing sessions.
Several large wads of California
money hammered down the price
on Ross from 9-5 to 8-5 last night,
but an influx of Chicago coin is
expected today This with the heavy
backing of New York cloak and
suffers will probably send Barney
into the ring 2-l favorite.
Most of the experts share Barney's
confidence - a confidence which
caused him to toss away his light
weight championship recently SO
that he could get another crack at
McLarnin.
In addition to the challenger's ad-
vantage of youth, 26 years against
,Jimmy's 29, Barney has been more
impressive throughout the training
grind He is heavier and stronger
than before, and he is punching
harder and faster than ever. More
over, he has been active in the ring
fighting 90 rounds in 1884, and
beating Frankie Khck and Henry
Woods this year. Meanwhile Nc
Larnin fought only 80 rounds, all
with Ross, since knocking out
Young Corbett III for the title in
1888.

Snow, which began falling dur ing the early hours of yesterday morning and which followed by rain which subsequently frozo forming as icy covering on side walks and roads, served to cut down traffic considerably and proved q great inconvenience to the transportation companies. This morning the streets were still cov- cred with ice and pedestrians and motor vehicles, alike, found 1t hard going.
 Several minor accidents were re- ported as q result of the storm. The Southern New Englind Tele- phone company escaped with little or no damage to it's lines although early this morning the high wind served to injure one of the Con- necticut Light & Power Company's lines in the northern section of the city with the result that service above Hillside avenue and over through the north end was tem- perarily suspended.
 Streets were flooded yesterday morning as the rain fell heavily on the snow that had piled up sev- eral inches during the night. The
