Only Myer Is Successful.

II 'RED SCHULIE had crack at 1t,
too, and the veteran outfielder
also was a failure. While batting
.255 for the campaign, Fred hit only
.059 in his four games as cleanup
hitter. He made one hit in II at
tempts and batted in no runs.
The only successful gent of the II
ehat Harris has tried was Buddy Myer.
In seven games Buddy batted .346
and drove in half dozen runs, but
Harris could not keep Myer there be-
cause the third batter in the lineup
also is pretty important and Buddy
was ideal in this spot. So Powell was
elected.
Jake has the happy faculty of being
able to produce hits when runners are
on base, so regardless of his 1856 aver
age since being promoted" to the
cleanup job two weeks ago, Powell's
runs-batted-in total has not suffered.
While the Griffs were winning the
first game of the Athletic series yes
terday, jake drove in three of the
runs that helped to 1O-to-7 victory.
This brought Powell's sum of runs
batted in to II for his IA games in
fourth position.
But he drove in yesterdays runs, for
instance, with single hit and long
fly and for the day he showed only
o 200 batting average. This is way
under par for the feet centerfielder.
It furnishes plenty of food for thought

PICKING K|NGF|SH
Called Greatly Improved,
Point to His Ability to
Give and Take 1t.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

- hhANSAo Il O"bNCs
)HICAGO, August 6-For some
reason, several well-known
experts in the fight business
prefer Kingflsh Levinsky over
Joe Louis when the two heavyweights
meet in a l0-round go at Comiskey
Park here tomorrow night. Among
them are Barney Ross, welterweight
Ekwert, who has trained such fighters
as Pancho Villa, Tuffy Grifhths, Tod
Morgan and many others.
Ekwert was found near the ring
side, watching Joe Louis in his final
day of training. What do you think?"
Ekwert was asked.
Il like Levinsky," replied Whitley"
II think Levinsky is too tough for
Louis to knock out. know, you'll tell
me Baer knocked him out. But how
many times did Baer hit him before
the Kingfish went down? He hit him
no less than a dozen clean punches.
LeVinsky was not in the shape for
his last engagement with Baer that
he is today. I was with Levinsky on
his Southern and Southwestern tour
last Winter and I'll tell you he is a
greatly improved fighter. He has
shortened his punches and he is using
better judgment in the ring.
Likes Louis Style.
IT OUIS never has been really hit
since he turned professional and
Levinsky has hit some of the best
heavyweights of the time. He usually
is able to get in at least one good
punch and I want to see how Louis
will react if the King does tag him.
Louis is great boxer, but it is
boxers that Levinsky likes TO fight, and
it's boxers he usually hits. Levinsky
is sure TO carry the fight to Louis.
He'll be throwing punches all the
time and will be the toughest man
Louis has fought so far.
The Kings best punch is an over
hand right. and it packs plenty of
power. I don't know how he throws
the punch, for it seems to come from
all directions. Both Sharkey and
Loughran told me it was impossible
for them to guess from what angle
the King was throwing blows.
The King also can weather a lot
of punching. and his ability to take it
makes me like his chances against
Louis. I am not undertaking Louis
skill as boxer or hitter, although I
am not certain he can punch any
harder than the King. But I believe
that if Levinsky can hit Joe as he
did Sharkey, Walker and Loughran,
he will have a swell chance. And all
