MAPLE LEAFS, DUKES
 CROSS BATS TONIGHT

The St. Ann's Maple Leafs will meet the strong Oakville Dukes at 6 o'clock tonight at Washington Park. The Frenchies have taken the place of their older and more ex- perienced team in the Public Parks loop this year and to date have won two straight league games, remaining undefeated in 5 starts. The Dukes also have good record this season and the Saints are look ing forward to fast scrappy con- test.
 The visitors will have George Pierce on the mound with Beauty behind the bat. The Dukes have a hard hitting outfit and really hustle on the field. The Frenchies, however have young scrappy array whose one weakness is lack of experience. However with the few new additions to their rooster, a new battery and another infielder, the Trenches chances of remaining undefeated are much better. Flash Berube. slim right handler will start for the Saints. Berube has been undefeat- cd in three starts. giving up only 2 hits in the three games.
 The manager of the Saints wants all players to be at the clubrooms at 5:l5 where cars will take them to the park.

|Carr Takes On Fitch Tonight,
 Perry, Triano Go

New Haven, June 1-Heralded as the outstanding fight of the year. Steve Carr, of Meriden and George Fitch, of New Haven, will clash to- night in the star bout of ten rounds on the professional card at the Arena. Carr came out of retirement two weeks ago to show his old time form and giant-killer punch in KOing Tony Celli. Since then the Meriden taven owner has been training faithfully and his sup porters are betting that he'll KO Fitch early.
 New Haven fans who have fol- lowed the rapid rise of Fitch to pugilistic prominence and who saw him out-box Tony Celli and then almost lose in the closing rounds readily admit that Carr might win by knockout; but they're looking for Fitch to keep Carr away with his deadly left hand.
 Both Fitch and Carr are gunning for bout with Nathan Mann. Both fighters believe that they can stop Mann; and Carr has added conti- dence because of his wins over Mann two years ago.
 Even though the arr-Fitch bout tops the card, Boxing Director Harry Durant has lined up four fast prelims any of which may steal the show. In the top six, Billy Campanelli. Worcester welter, will mix with Danny Buckley, of Holy oke. Both boys have defeated New Haven's Frankie Young and Buck ley holds decision over Campan- elli earned last fall in Holyoke.

ugly Jumps. His cheeks were swol- len, unsightly. His lips stood out in bruised pout, and his body was a mass of welts.
 AS early as the tenth round his condition was such that the referee leaned over the ropes to talk with doctors and the head of the boxing commission.
 Had he been lesser man, 8 lesser champion, the fight would have been called, the towel thrown in. But the officials sensed, as did the crowd, that here was champion who preferred to lose his title stand ing up, even if the finish found him more like Gargoyle than man.
 Ross will fight no more. He's through. He told me in his training camp that he would never take but one beating. "Let a guy give it to me-really give me my bumps-and I'll hang up the gloves" Ross said:
 Well, a guy gave it to him last night. The "guy" is named Henry Armstrong, and he is 133 pounds of almost inhuman properties.
 I say "inhuman" because . man is not supposed to behave the way Armstrong did last night. He went at blistering top speed for IS rounds-and he didn't even sweat. He threw 10000 punches, and yet when he stood in his corner, ready to come out for the final round, he wasnlt even breathing heavily. I know this to be true, because the night was cold and could see his breath in the frosty air. It was as regular as that of 8 man who had walked only 8 block or two at brisk pace.
 He gave you the impression of being more a machine than a man.
 Cut his veins," I heard one spec tator say, "and he'll run lubricat- ing oil, not blood"
 Yes, cut him open and I am sure you'd find springs and coils and armatures and dynamos and bits of metal. In the early rounds Ross hit him plenty. But he never changed expression. A right to the chin and he only snorted a bit louder and moved in bit faster. Punches to the body only seemed to set off a hidden power that drove him onto the attack at faster pace.
 He fought every round the same, from the first to the fifteenth. The bell rang. He came out on the run and in split second was chest to chest with Ross. A right would go. Then left. Then a jab. Then a hook. Then an uppercut. Then more hooks, more jabs, more upper cuts. And, when it appeared that he had thrown all the blows in the book, he would burrow in closer and use his shoulders, elbows, and head. He was perpetual motion in purple trunks; buzz saw with gloves on
 Ross soon wearied. He tried to coast, but there, failing away at him every second, was the little negro. Ross would go into & cor ner. There would be the little ne- gro. Ross would duck and there would be the little negro, beating him on every exposed surface. Ross would weave and there. weaving in front of him, would be the little negro.
 Fists. Fists. Fists. Fists.
 Thousands of them.
 That's Armstrong, the new Welter- weight champion.

 q found out in the first round that Ross didn't have his old time punch" Armstrong said. With noth- ing to fear, all had to do was slow him up as quick as l could. He never hurt me once, though I did hurt myself when left hook hit the top of his head. My thumb and fore finger are pretty sore"
 Armstrong, his wife, sister, and daughter will go to St. Louis in a week to visit a few days with rela- tives. then go on to their home in Los Angeles.
