Two Return Mat Bouts Feature Friday Program

pr. Martin Murker, Abe Stein, Kark Pojello and Maurice Leo Cavell, all of whom have made ex- cellent showings in local wrestling shows for the past four monthS will be seen in action Friday night ct Buckingham hall, paired up in two return bouts that should bring plenty of patronage to the audi torium where the mat game has been very well received.
 Stein and Pojello will tangle in one bout, with Murkur and Cavell in the other, these men having met before and shown to such good ad- vantage that Promoter Joe Zonsin feels confident that they will be . great combination to wind up the indoor presentations of the season.
 Promising
 Tn addition to the two main bouts named above, Eddie Dawson, former should have the patrons on their Olympic crewman, takes on Tor rington's Lilo Nardi in Q bout that toes throughout the contest, which promises to develop some high class wrestling as well as some slam -bang stufH of genuine feeling. Fred Ebert of Brazil and Paul Pulasky, the giant Pole, are down for 30-minute time limit bout or one fall, while Walter Percy, the elongated English. man, will meet Irish Jack Mccarthy in the opening bout that should get the show off to Q flying start, for when an Irishman and Englishman tangle in sport, the fur is sure to fly.
 Big Meet
 Tn the meantime, Promoter Zon- sin is planning to sponsor Q New England tournament and has in- vited the four Dusek brothers, Joe Savoldi and Jack Donovan from the Jack Curley tribe, and Heney Pierce, Nick Lutze, Gus Sonnenberg, Yvonne Robert and Danno O,Ma- hony from the Paul Bowser group of Boston to take part in the pro- posed meet.

 Chicago, May 1i.-(UP)-They stlll go by the niclrnames of Dizzy and Daffy, but those colorful ham, dles no longer fit the brothers Dean. Dour and sour would be much moro in keeping with the temperaments the pair of hominy y-fed right-hand. :. CTS are showing to the baseball public these days.
 I sat with them in the St. Louis dugout for Q half hour or more be- fore the Cards game with the Cubs at Wrigley field yesterday, and dur ing that time not one quip, not onc laugh, not ono playful gesture came from them. All about us the rest ot the Cards, the most boisterous gang in baseball, whooped and yelled ard cussed, but the Deans, dour and sour, kept apart.
 They were particularly bitter to- ward autograph seekers, these two who Q few yeerS ago autographed the toes of their own white shoes simply for the pleasure of writing their names. When one admirer, a bit more advcntureSome than his fellow box seaters, climbed on top of the dugout and stuck his head over the edge and waved Q Score- card, he was greeted with Q surly:
 "Go chase yourselfl Can't you guys let @ fellow alone?"
 "That's the way to do it," said Sour. formerly Daffy, as the fan, blushing with embarrassment, ducked out of sight. "Those guys'll run you nuts. They make me sick. People try and tell me it's those kinds of birds who pay us. I don't believe 1t. I get paid because I can get out there and produce. l ain't one of those glcry boys. I'm in 1t for the dough-"
 "so,m l." echoed Dour, formerly Dizzy. T ain't gonna leave this dug out. Sure as I do there'll be ten thousand of lem hanging around up there saying sign this, sign that, sign this"
 From down the bench Leo Duro- cher called to Sour, formerly Daffy, to point out that Lynwood King, rookie centerhelder, who was swing ing in practice ct the plate, was lifting his right foot much higher when he took Q cut at the ball.
 He's copying the style of Paul Waner," DuroCher said, land he's hitting better"
 Better quit copying" answered Sour, formerly Daffy. Tt won't do him any good. You can't copy your way to the top in this business. You gotta deliver. That's all what counts"

New England
 Sport Spice Of Keen Interest
By FRANK MURPHY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Boston, May ll--(UP)--Along New England sport trails:
 Gene Venzke of Pennsylvania was pacing Uncle Sam's Olympic 1900. meters candidates today on the basis of his triumph in the ivy college games ct Harvard stadium. Venzke's victory in 3 minutes 52,6 seconds was the fastest outdoor per- formance of his career. And Gene had no Cunningham, Mangan or Bonthron to press him on the stretch as he won by 30 yards. His time compared with Luigi Bec- calls Olympic record of 3:5l.2 and with Bill Bonthron's world record of 3:488.
 Staying Home
 Mickey Haslin, holdout third baseman, has said the last word for the present in his salary squabble with the Boston Bees. Respond ing to President Bob Quinn's mailed invitation to come here for a confer- ence, Haslin from his home near Philadelphia wired that he wasn't interested in the clubs terms. <. Quinn is of the opinion that he has no redress for Haslin's failure to don Q Bees uniform after the Phillies swapped him for Pinkey Whitney. ,. With Haslin outside the fold the Bees remain without Q spare in- fielder.
 Wally Berger's big bat hasn't be- gun to function yet but that doesn't mean that the Bees centerfielder isn't trying. Wally beat out two infleld hits yesterday and his base- running gave the Bees the winning run in their 5-4 twelve inning win over the Dodgers. Rabbit Ma ranville Is playing second base for his Elmira team in the New York Penn league. .. He was batting AGO according to the latest records.
 Hard Luck
 Ben Geraghty, former Villanova college inf,elder with the Dodgers, has run into a streak of hard luck. Out of the lineup a week with a bab thumb, Ben took part in fielding practice ycsterday-and split nail on his right hand. {. |. Frankie Skaff of Lowell, another Villanova product is still with the Brooklyn team.
 Bill Werber, the Red Sox third baseman, has got back part of his 1886 salary cut already according to one report. It's understood that Tom Yawkey has given Werber 8 $500 bonus for his early-season hus- tic. Werber's batting has slumped some in the last couple of weeks but he's still over the 300 mark.
 Albert (Hank) Soar, star football back and all-around athlete at Prov idence college, has been dropped for cutting classes. .. Charley DeVens, former Harvard and New York Yan- keeS pitcher, is twirling for the Mel rose Ramblers in the suburban twi- light league. Frank tBotS) Me- kola, former Holy Cross college pitcher who had tryout with the Yankees, is pitching tight ball for Toronto in the International league.

 "Yeah," said Sour, formerly Daffy, If you can copy yourself into Q three-fifty hitter, why don't you start copying that Vaughan of Pittsburgh, and Qtlit popping to short"
 Durocher abandoned the argu- ment.
 More autograph hunters stuck their heads around the corner of the dugout, and oil were given the same treatInent--A sort of bufn's rush without the actual laying on of hands.
 report this change in the Deans more in regret than anger, for they were sweet copy while their dispost- tions were sweet. The Dizzy Dean who came swaggering out of the bushes in 1882 came close to being your ideal balIplayer. Cocky, crazy and courageous, he just about had 1t all. And the same was true of his brother, when he came bouncing out two years later. They were a pair, what with their antics and ability.
 Nobody expected them to stay just the same, when their names began hitting the black headlines, and the big dough began rolling in. That would have been too good to be true. But they might have spared us this abrupt swing to the exact opposite. Nobody wanted them to hold blow handles in their hands all their lives, but there must be happy me- diun between g. blow handle and a check book.
