FULL WEEK Of
ACTION DUE IN
BALL LEAGUES

AS the b league enters into the
last week Of the first half of its
schedule. chief interest eenters in
the efforts of three teams to keep
out OF the cellar position as this
honor automatically eliminates
the holder from competition in tie
second round of play.
This situation viii be threShed out
tonight as the three present CO.
holders of last place will swing in
TO action. The 20-30 club takes on
the strong CUHS team which at
present has been undefeated this
season. The club boys have drawn
a tough assignment but from pre-
battle statements they are out to
give their best and if possible hand
the school lads their first setback.
In the second game on tonight's
doubleheader the Christian Church
and Southern SierraS teams, both
of which share the cellar with the
20-30ians will lock horns in a game
that should sizzle from start &c
finish. The power boys threaten
to increase the voltage considerably
tonight and shock the Christians
right out of their shoes. Well know
the whole story before bedtime to-
night.
In the A league the boys get
down to brass tacks again starting
tomorrow night. The Flying AS
will meet the Laundrymen who
upset the Bakers last week. On
Wednesday night the Bakers will
try to make up some lost ground
when they take on the Golden
State outfit but with Homer Cham
bers twirling the way he has been
in the past few games this may be
difficult to achieve.
Thursday night the league-lead-
ing Coca Colas will meet the Fat
Boys and from all present indica-
tions the former should keep their
post at the top Of the heap with
little difficulty. Friday night the
scene shifts back to the "B' league
again with the Elks-Junior Cham
Der of Commerce game.
No announcement has as yet been
made relative to an All-Star game
for Saturday night but it is expect
ed that such a game will be played.
The All Stars lost their return
match against the Kern Roofers in

FAVOR LOUIS
OVER CARNERA
IN BIG FIGHT
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent


NEW YORK. June "a. - The
big test for Joe Louis, Detroit's de-
vastating Negro puncher, comes to-
morrow night in Yankee stadium
when he battles Primo Carnera,
258-pound Italian giant, in a Is
round heavyweight bout.
More than $4,000 spectators are
expected to pay approximately
100000 to see Louis unleash his
lethal fists on the eX-heavyweight
champions giant frame. 1t will be
the largest fight crowd of the year,
paying twice the receipts of the
recent Max Baer-James j. Brad
dock title bout.
Tales of Louis punching PROV
eSS continue to make him 6-5 IA
vorite with the betting gentry, but
after the experience of the Baer-
Bradodck upset it is likely even
money will prevail by tomorrow
Hailed as the Brown Dempsey
and the greatest Negro fighter
since Sam Langford, Louis will en-
ter the ring with one of the most
remarkable records in pugilistic
history. He has scored % triumphs
without a defeat in less than a year
of professional boxing. He has
knocked out Is of his opponents,
and had all of them on the floor at
least once.
Never pulling a punch, Louis has
given his sparring partners an un-
merciful lacing during his month
of training at Pompton Lakes, N.
j. His punches have flored every
one of them and made several quit
camp.
Louis punches with either hand
short, brutal punches. The fro
zen-faced Negro fights from a flat
footed stance, shuffling in to stalk
his foe. The high spots on his rec
ord are two knockouts of Lee Ra-
mage, brilliant San Diego, Calf
boxer, one round k. o. of STAN
ley Poreda, who holds a decision
over Carnera, a three-round k. O
of Charlie Massers; and 10
round decision over Matte Brown.
Cameras size. strength and ex-
perience are the main factors in
favor Of the eX-champion. Louis
never has faced a man as big Oh
rough as the Italian man noun
tain. He scored his knockoutS
against men of his own size. Car
nera is nearly six inches taller thar
Louis.

MUIRFIELD. Scotland, June "a
iU.P)-MacDonald Smith of Glen
dale. Calf. rated the worlds best
golfer who has never won major
title. thrilled A partisan gallery Of
Scotsmen today when he scored a
Sc, six under par, in the first quail
flying round of the British open
championship.
Smiths score established a new
record for the Gullane course. The
best previous score since the course
was revised was II made by Tom
Kay. a Scottish amateur. Course
officials said that Smiths mark
would be listed as the official rec
ord.
Smith. who began play holding
second favoritism with Alfred
Padgham, English ace, played with
half OF the field on the Gullane
course, while the other half played
Muirfield layout.
His brilliant round included five
brides and one eagle. Only at the
4-par seventh hole did he fail to
equal or better par.
Holders of 1O-to-1 bets on Mac
Smith felt they had made an in
vestment rather than a gamble
when they saw the American star
clip strokes from par with robot-like
regularity.
Henry Cotton, the English pro at
tached to a Brussels, Belgium
course, started two hours aftel
Smith and had not reached the
turn when Mac blazed his way
home. Cotton was playing at Muir
field.
Unfortunately for Smith today's
and tomorrow's scoring does not
count towards the championship
except insofar as it determines the
200 players who will compete in the
tourney proper on Wednesday. The
low 100 and ties for the first two
