ings of the crowd, kept tossing inef-
fective lefts. Barney was forced to
shift into gear momentarily in the
fifth canto, however, when Phil landed
his best blow of the night, a hard
right to the head. The Jewish lad
poured hot leather into Furr's red
dened frame, however, and then
rocked Phil with a series Of rights
and lefts to the face.
Ross devoted the final five cantos
to administering Furr an expert box
ing lesion. Weaving, bobbing and
shifting with Phil's every move, Bar
ney danced in repeatedly to score
almost at will. He was the most elu-
sive target Furr probably ever will
be forced to face.
The one-sided aspect of the bout
is reflected in the fact that Ross cap
tured every round. and with the ex-
ception of few brief collisions, never
was pressed enough to display his
punching proves.
Dempsey Smooth Referee.
JACK DEMPSEY, former world
heavyweight boxing champion,
turned in his best performance in
three appearances as a referee here
Not for a second was it evident that
there was a third man in the ring,
so smoothly did the Manassa Mauler
handle the contest.
Three knockouts featured the pre-
liminary fist-slinging, with Jackie
Carter, transplanted Texas light
weight, scoring the most notable Of
these by dropping Billy Temes with
a right to the chin after 2 minutes
of the third round.
Other chilling bouts saw Frankie
Tymosko finish John Fortuna with
a right hook to the solar plexus after
81 seconds of the third round in the
opening heavyweight scrap and Killer
Lamar, local colored heavyweight,
dispose of Vernon Cox in l minute

JAPAN, GERMANY,
FINLAND THREATS
Due to "Gang Up" on Yanks
Who Are Favorites in
Olympic Games.
BY GUENTHER BEUKERT,

~ ERLIN, July 23.-1ts the United
- States against an athletic
triple entente" in the Eleventh
- Olympic Games, August Lie.
At least, much speculation is based
on the question of what the combined
forces of Germany, Japan and Fin
land can do to break down Yankee
supremacy in the worlds quadrennisl
super-sports carnival.
The host nation Is at maximum
strength numerically with a team
numbering 448, but on the whole tha
Germans are hardly of the caliber
to make an appreciable dent in the
dominance the United States has en-
joyed in track and field ever since the
current series Of Olympic games be-
gan.
Curiously, however, Germanys
strength seems to lie in the events in
which Japan's and Finland's marks
fall short.
Gang Up" on U. S.
A ND thus these three nations
"A Japan. Finland and Germany
comprise a sort of triple threat against
the highly favored star spangled
brigade.
Nowhere have the sensational per-
formances of the Finnish middle and
long distancers been more envied than
in the Reich, which time and again
sees its weaknesses demonstrated by a
runner from another direction-Juan
Carlos Zabala of Argentina, the 1882
Olympic marathon champion. who
came to Europe months ago for his
training siege.
While American success seems as
sured in the sprints, hurdles and broad
Jump, manned by such stars as Jesse
Owens, Forrest Towns and Glenn
Hardin, it is highly questionable that
the American pole-vaulting trio from
Southern California can stand off the
challenge of the diminutive, acrobatic
japanese, who also are threatening In
the hop. step and jump.
The Reich carefully cultivated a
team of shot, discus, hammer and
javelin throwers and, be it luck or
native ability, succeeded in bringing
them up to the Olympic level. The
German Hans Woellke is in a position
to challenge Jack Torrance OF the
United States in the Olympic shotput.
Woellke is heaving the iron ball
close to Torrance's best marks-and
the Louisianian is reported to be fat
and far off his best form.

his manner became serious. Did you
