Hostak Wins Again

Al Hostak had his hand raised

The end of eight hectic rounds of
some kind of fighting. Many of
the fans filing out were heard re-
marking lone Of those things"
Cans did not win the favor of the
fans by his tactics and Hostak re-
ceived very little glory in such
win. In the semi-windup, Jimmy
Best pounded cut g win over Billy
Lancaster. These two colored boys
went at It hammer ana tongs with
Best having a slight edge. Incid-

over Hostalk and 1t seems that
while Nate Druxman is casting a.
round for suitable opponents for

give Best enother shot at Hostak.
At least he would make a better
showing than Cans.
Russ Mcmillan and Cal McGraw

rounds to a draw. Mcmillan had
the best OF it the first two rounds

Ted Showers, Gus Vests color

Dick Gerard, a very likely look

cabTakes SeattIe

The one and only Cab Galloway
and his cohorts Of rhythm COM
pleted a very successful weeks en-
gagement at the Paramount The
atre Thursday night. Cab and his
flock had seattle's music loving
populace "hi-de-ho' conscious and
by force Of his magnetic personal
ity won over even those who do
no. care for typical Galloway num-
bers. The act was very well pre-
sented, very well dressed, and the
way they beat out" that rhythm
made them the outstanding musi-
cal aggregation to appear here re-
Gently.
Showing a departure from the
usual style that made him famous.
Cab led the boys through two very
beautiful numbers, namely, Got
ton" from the Cotton Club Revue,
and pale Noon" but when he OPP
ened mp on Minnie the Moocher"
the gallery gang shouted and
cheered to an echo. Appearing
with the band was Ralph Brown,
who easily rates as the smoothest
dancer to ever show in Seattle,
then there was Leitha Hill, who's
torch numbers and mugging with
Benny Payne, the pianist, evoked
much mirth. The next dancer was
billed as Two Minutes With Dyna-
mite Hooker, and the audience
could have easily enjoyed this boys
steps for an hour. For comic re-
lief, there was "Nicodemus" Stew
art, who sold his droll manner and
funny lines ia such manner as to
make the audience encore him re-
peatedly.
On the whole Cab brought a
nicely balanced show on his first
invasion of the Northwest and
made many thousands Of new ad-
mirers here. He gave US just en-
ough of everything to leave us cla-
moring for more, especially the
singing of Benny Payne, which is
good showmanship after all.

Roller Skate Hockey
Tournament, Jan. ID

Negro youngsters are counting
up their good deeds these days,
hoping that Christmas morning
will find them the proud posses
sors of a new pair of skates or a
hockey stick.
The reason--President Harry M.
Westfall of the Park Board has
set January IS as the opening date
Of the annual roller skate hockey
tournament, and every boy in Sc
attic has a desire to play on a win
ming team. And a good pair of
skates and a hockey stick are just
the things to score goals with.
Four divisions will be open to
the young athletes, the 30, 10, 135
pound end unlimited. Regular roll
Ter sD.te hockey rules, which close
ly follow ice hockey rules, will be
"a force this year, and the league
division will be the same as last
year. The city viii be divided into
a North, South and Central diyi-
sion, and a championship playoff,
with the title holders from each
division competing, will be held at
the end of the regular season.
Entries In the tournament will
be accepted at the Park Depart
ment office, 1884 Fourth Avenue,
any tine after January l. Mana
gers must organize teams ahead
of time and turn in a full playing
list at the time entry blanks are
filed.
The tennis courts at all the city
playfields are now open for boys
and they are urged by Ben Evans,
director of Fairgrounds, to obtain
plenty Of practice before the sea-
son opens. The league promises to
be tougher than ever this year, as
more than 100 teams are expected
to enter.

ENGLAND SPLIT
BY PEACE OFFER

LONDON, Eng. (By Rudolph

ais by Great Britain and France
which would give Italy two thirds
Of Ethiopia and the subsequent
threatened disruption of the league
Of nations have sharply divided
England into two camps, with the
opponents of the peace move in
the majority.
According to stories published
in London dailies and generally be-
lieved throughout England, Musso-
lini's campaign was on the verge
of breaking down, Il Duce was tot
tering on the brink of ruin and in
ternal dissension in Italy was be-
coming daily more audible. With
the continuation Of economic sane
lions and the ever-mounting ma
tional debt of the Fascists, 1t was
held to be only question of time
before Mussolini would be forced
out of Ethiopia.
Reports that Britain has prac-
ticaIly demanded that Emperor
Halle Selassie accept the peace
terms are expected to herald one
of the most bitter fights since the
World War days when Parliament
meets this week, with opposition
to the Hoare-Lavel proposal APP
parently gaining momentum.

Prior to the peace plan, recent
issue of the Sunday Referee, one
of London's biggest papers, under
a headline, zone Push-And Italy

say:
Italy is on the brink of catas-
trophe. A push from the inside,

SOllul IOICCot VI a push AACAA 49,

latest troop movements within It

the national will in the face of
world opposition, and, incidentally,
to deal with the serious threat of
domestic trouble.
"Mussolini, a desperate man, is
prepared to take desperate meas
ures. / learn on good authority
he is in a condition bordering on
breakdown. And no wonder. He
realizes that the Abyssinian war
is already lost in a military sense.

UZCUDUN SAYS
LOUIS TOO GOOD

NEW YORK (ANP) - Louis
hits too hard"
In these four words did Pauline
Uzcudun, the tough old gladiator
from Spain, tell the whole story of
his four-round knockout at the dy-
Mantle fists of Joe Louis, uncrown-
ed heavyweight champion. before
approximately 10000 people at the
Madison Square Garden on Friday
night. It was the first time the
man from the Pyrenees had ever
been knocked down In his thirteen
years nj battle against the hardest
hitters of this fighting age.
Receipts for the bout were $12s,-
s95.75. Joe received $4,000. or
40 per cent, of which $500 was
contributed to the Hearst Christ
mas Fund, under whose auspices
the fight was staged. Uzcudun
| pocketed 20 per cent, or about
$4,000.
Hardly any Of those who attend
ed this indoor fight came expect
ing Pauline, now SO, to win. They
all knew IN advance that Joe would
not be whipped. They cane. did
Park Avenue and Harlem, to see
Brown Panther man stalk his
prey and to sit in on the inevitable
kill Blood they wanted, and blood
they got.
For three rounds this Louis man
toyed like cat with a mouse, bid
ing his time. In the same express
sionless, effortless. deadly shuttle
that has brought him to the top in
only a little more than a year,
Louis watched and waited, his left
arm flicking out occasionally to
score through the queer arm and
elbow defense of Uzcudun. In the
third Joe cut three-inch cash abb
owe his opponents left eye. I'm
mediately at the ringside they be-
gan betting even money on whe-
Their or not the end would come in
the next frame.
In the fourth round 1t came with
dazzling swiftness.
Two minutes had gone by when
Louis sent left jab to Paulino's
mouth. Uzcudun for second was
flustered and he made the tactical
error of lowering his defense. 1t
was all Joe wanted. So swiftly
that few saw aught but his right
shoulder twist. Louis delivered a
load of TINT to Paulino's mouth.
The Basque toppled to the floor,
blood spurted from a cash through
which a tooth had been cleanly
driven.
For six seconds he lay there, the
first time in his life he h I'd ever
been down. Then he struggled
slowly and painfully to his set by
the count Of eight. Came to the
last, Uzcndun raised his hands in
a fighting pose. Joe turned his
expressionless face toward Referee
Donovan to see whether he should
go on, then went back to the at
tack. Louis hit the defenseless
and wobbly old gladiator again, a
right and two lefts. Pauline start
ed down again and Joe had that
vicious right aimed for a last ex-
plosion when the referee stepped
in. Louis had done something no
body in the world before had ever
been able to accomplish-score
knockout over the Man With The
Concrete Chin.
