Gould, in turn surprised the
champion with a signed radio

calling for three appearances a
week for a year and $63 900.
In Perfect Condition
The champion said he is in per

a training camp and get going

"And before you ask" he said,

about three pounds more than
/ carried into the ring against
Baer and all / really need for a
tough fight with anybody is a
haircut and a couple Of hand
springs"
Nothing Official
Gould revealed that, while 1t
generally is believed Louis could
win the championship by knock,
ing Braddock out, the negro would
not get official recognition as he
interpreted the rules.
"This bout is just another ex.
hibitiOn," he said, "and we can't
lose q thing-althOugh we ex-
pect to win.
"The New York Commission
stipulateS that all title fights
must be Is rounds" Gould said,
"And on that biSis we can't lose
it. In other words, that $780,
900 represents the highest guar
antee ever given for an exhibit
ton. and topped only by Demp-
Sey and Tunney for even a cham

The New York Commission has
not taken an official stand on

If he scores knockout.

BY SID KATZNELL

Joe Perron, fiery athletic direc-
tor: Of the Veterans Of Foreign
Wars, is today being congratulated
by his fellow members on his sue
cessful effort Of getting two Of the
bitterest rivals on the local gridiron
to clash in the annual Veterans
Of Foreign Wars charity football
game Saturday night at Griffith
Stadium. The teams are the War
wickS and Anacostia Eagles, enc
mics on the sports field since the
days Of silent motion pictures.
So deadly is their animoSity to-
ward each other that they would
rather emerge victorious in Satur.
day nights game than have a
block Of box seats at the Army
and Navy game.
The Eagles have only one scratch
on their record, q IT tie with the
HeSsick Coalmen. Although the
WarwickS have suffered two de-
feats, q 6-to-O setback at the hands
Of the powerful Fredericksburg
Pros and q 6-to-0 loss to the scrappy
Virginia A. c., they point to for
midable record. The boys from
Northeast have stopped the Palace
A. c., Northwestern A. c. and the
Silver Spring Merchants. "Chibby"
Rice, former Apache ace, coaches
the Eagles, while Carlton Petit
handles the Warwicks.
Washington Pros in Tie
Displaying a potent attack, the
Washington Pros electrified Bal
tinore fans by holding the high
scoring Baltimore Orioles to q
TT tie at the Oriole Park, Balti-
more, yesterday in the Dixie
League.
The Baltimoreans were particu-
larly stunned by the brilliant
broken field running Of Willis
Benner, the former Maryland Uni
versity flash. It was Benner who
scored the seven points for the
WashingtoniarS. After a 68-yard
drive put the bail on the Orioles
17-yard stripe, Benner found an
opening in the center of the line
and galloped unmolested for a
touchdown. He promptly kicked
the extra point from placement.
The Orioles scored their seven
markers late in the second quar-
ter. A pass, Masters to Bull
Draper, placed the ball on Wash
ington'S five-yard but it required
three downs before the Orioles
were able to register the touch
down. Wright went over for the
score from the one-yard mark.
Munder added the extra point.
The Alexandria Celtics showed
exceptional power in holding the
leading Portsmouth Pros to a
6-6 tie at Portsmouth, Va, yester-
day in the Dixie League.
Celtics Surprise
It looked very much like the
CelticS would upset the dope and
trim the leaders when they scored
q touchdown in the second period
on a pass to Earl Dunlap to Alb
Wright. However, a 12-yard pass
in the final quarter from Billy
Morgan to Jack Grimes knotted
the count for Portsmouth.
Regal Clothiers won their sixth
straight game in the National City
League by defeating Arlington A.
c., 13 to 0, on the BallSton Field.
"A free-for-all interrupted the
football game between the Silver
Spring Merchants and the Ecking-
ton A. c., yesterday, on the Silver
Spring gridiron. The game ended
in a scoreless tie. Two and one-half
minutes were left to play when
flying fists halted the hostilities.
Not only players, but fans, partici-
pated in the melee before level
headed spectators and officials
cleared the field.
