 Ramblers' Last Foe

New Haven, March 17.-The 1936- 36 Can-Am hockey loop schedule of the New Haven Eagles will close at the Arena on Sunday night, where the Battle Birds play host to the league-leading Philadelphia Ram blers.
 On Thursday night, the charges of Nomie Hines invade Boston for battle with the Bruin Cubs. It will be Boston's final game of the sea- son.
 New Haven still has a 'mathemat- ical chance of gaining the play-offs. Should the third-place Springfield Indians drop tw ogames, and the Eagles win two, these rivals will be deadlocked again for third place.
 Slim Chance
 The 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Springfield sextet last Sunday dealt the locals hard blow, but Player-Manager Normie Hines is going to whip his charges right down the home stretch this week and theere Is still the possibility the New Haven club will make the grade. The Home City lads play host to the Ramblers on Saturday night and close their slate against the Reds on Sunday.

LEROY HAYNES BELTS CARNERA
 OUT IN THIRD
Italian Giant Is Finally Punched Out of Heavy.
 weight Boxing Picture
BY PAUL F. ELLIS Limited Press Staff Correspondent


 United Press Staff Correspondent Philadelphia, March 17-(UP0- The mountainous form of Primo Camera was rubbed of the heavy weight picture today and the big Italians hopes for comeback were gone glimmering.
 Instead, there appeared on the boxing horizon an ebony-colored boy, another "black menace,-Leroy Haynes, born in Indiana, raised in California and adopted by Philadel- phia.
 Bout Drew We'll
 The end of da Preem came dis- mally in the third round of a sched- uled 10-round bout at the Arena last nighe before approximately 10000 fans who paid inthe neighborhood of $16,000 to see the scrap.
 Haynes spotted Camera 68 pounds but recklessly forgot that from the outset. After few cautious jabs and punches, the negro began to find his range.
 Eight solid smacks against Car nera's chin during the first round gave Haynes the necessary con- fidence. Coming back for the second, the negro weaved in and under Cameras lnammoth-sized arms and rained him with fists. The barrage was to much for the Italian. His knees sagged, he shivered to the floor for @ short count.
 Haynes was on top again when Camera arose. The forme rcha1n- pion sank again, this time catching the ropes. He was on the floor, but not knocked out, when the second round ended.
 Cameras handlers dragged him to his corner and sent him out for the third round. He was wobbly, shaky and trembling. Haynes met him in the middle of teh ring and pummeled his head and chin with stinging rights and lefts. Gave Up
 Staggering under the barrage of blows, the Italian slunk to his cor- ner. He turned his back and got 8 death grip on tn eropes.
 T gotta 'nough," Camera said through split-lips to Referee Matt Adgie.
 The end came after 53 seconds in the third round.
 In his dressing room Haynes said he had used his Sunday go-to- meeting" punch.
 T didn't think I would take him so quick" he grinned.
