Plans Definitely Completed
For Ross to Fight Fur Here

Ross has held the welter title for
little more than q year, having de-
feated Jimmy McLarnin in May, 1885.
For q while he held both the welter-
weight and lightweight champion
ships, winning the latter from Tony
Canzoneri in 1888. He then proceeded
to lift the welterweight crown from
McIarnin in 1894, but lost 1t back to
Jimmy later in the same year. Fol-
lowing that contest he abdicated the
lightweight throne to center his at
tentions on the heavier title.
Ross managers, Sam Plan and Art
Winch, we're won over to the Capital
as O site for q bout this month by the
report Of Jack Dempsey and Max
Waxman, followers of the Champion s
camp. The former heavyweight cham
pion and Waxman were favorably i'm
pressed with the local set-up and gave
their official OK. to the proposed
bout.

Planned Defensive Game.
MIR. GRIMM made these remark


~ couple of weeks ago. Now on
the day of battle, he and the presi-
dent and mouthpiece of the league,
Mr.. Ford Frick, were plotting a more
or less defensive campaign. There is
no defense against a home run in the
stands, but the apiary of Boston's
Bees Is roomy joint wherein the de-
fensive club has space to swing its
dogs and elbows Mr.. Grimm and Mr..
Frick figured that the thing that
would win for them was a judicious
application of three smart pitchers,
the fleetest outfielders on the roster,
and an infield unit strong and cool
enough to handle the wickedest
smasheS that come its way.
At least, that's what they said they
figured. Between us, I think they
were hoping that Berger or Medwick
or lombard or some other exponent
OF the powerful tee shot would knock
one out of the park and give their
pitchers a lead to work with.
Squire Joe Mccarthy, the proxy
manager of the American League
squad, was most coy about naming
a starting lineup. However he
limited that Bob Grove would start
in the box, with Rick Ferrell catch
ing him, in which case Bill Dickey
would come in later to handle the
delivery of Harder, Gomez and Rowe,
ut least two Of whom seemed sure to
work along with Grove.
There really wasn't much guess
work about the Squire's lineup. The
choice between Gehrig and Foxx at
first base depended on the National
Leagues choice of starting pitcher.
Both sluggers were to see service.
The other starting infielders were
Gehringer, Crosetti and Higgins, with
Appling filling in later. The squire
was expected to go to the post with
Di Maggie. Averin and Goslin in his
outfield and give subsequent employ
ment to Radcliff and Chapman.
It was powerful list, and figured
to win on paper, but I had hunch
that Mr.. Grimm could upset the
form by tossing caution to the south
west wind and giving plenty of work
TO Hubbell and Dizzy Dean. Other
wise, the National Leaguers might
have to swap "all-stars" for q new
alias. The G-men were hot on their
trail.

In a Tough Spot.

Mr.. GRIMM was in there to take
@'A it on the chin. If, in snatching
victory after three long years, he ex-
posed one of his athletes to heartburn
or a bean ball or a strained arm, he
would be threatened with lynching
by Frank Frisch, Bill Terry, Chuck
Dresser, or whoever happened to be
the full-time proprietor of the chattel
In question. IF the victim happened to
be one Of his own boys, like Curt
Davis. he would have to answer to the
Cub front Office. and when you answer
30 the front Office, you don't do any
answering. You just listen.
On the other hand, If Mr.. Grimm
lost the all-star game, his position
would be too mournful even to con-
template. He was expected to win it,
and he was expected to win it against
q squad of ball players which really
was considerably stronger than his
own.
Mr.. Grimm was cheerful in the face
OF this impasse.
II thinA we can win the game" he
said, when last halted by your sentinel,
~and with average luck the pitchers
will all be fresh and ready to work
when their next turn comes around
on the regular schedule. Look back
at the other three all-star games.
There wasn't any case where a pitcher
was hurt by his all-star workout"
Well, this was not exactly a correct
statement of the facts. What about
the case of Carl Hubbell in 1884?
by his work in the first three innings
OF the all-star game, Hub indicated
that he might have gone on to shut
out the American Leaguers. Yet
Terry yanked him. And later Terry
said that even those scant three
innings, under strain, had wrought a
harmful effect on his ace southpaw.
Mr.. Grimm considered this.
WELL" he said, "I don't think
there1l be anything like that this
time. I'm not figgering on murder
ing anybody's pitchers, but I'm gonna
play to win. Don't forget, I've got
some hitters, too. Maybe there's no
Gehrig on my club, but what about
Medwick and OFT and Suhr and Jim
Collins and lombard and Hartnett
and Herman? They can hit"

Jack Laken speaking. Deans
shrewd manager telephoned to this

it that the tremendous build-up which
his fighter has received for tonight's
10-round battle with Petey Sarron has
not been the customary self-advertis-
ing always displayed by challengers
to a title.
That last item, incidentally, is
Deans only annoyance with tonight's

Sarron cannot lose the championship
he won here in May, even though he
may be knocked fatter than the

their fourth straight all-star contest to
the American League on the fl 1t
lawn Of this gay old trading post by

system, as such, would begin to look
pretty silly.
In fact, it might occur to some alert
G-man to suspect that the agents Of

you and me and One-Eyed Connolly,
In which case it would be but the

gerprint the whole mob for fraud,
chicanery, misuse of the mails and
hunting goats out of season.
One thing can lead to another. If
they're not all-stars, they may not
even be Democrats. Or licensed

The National League moguls were
