LASINSKI BOXES
 ROGERS TONIGHT
Kid Sal, Art Smith and Bobby Ellis on Meri-
 den Card

Meriden, July 19 - Butch Rogers, iron-man heavyweight from Wall ingford and Johnny Lasinski, Brooklyn and Meriden battler, will meet in a six-round star bout top ping tonight's weekly pro-amateur boxing card at the Silver City sta- dium.
 Rogers was one of the most rug ged of Max Schmeling's sparring partners before the Louis setto. During his career, Rogers has met such standouts as Tommy Lough- ron, King Levinsky. Art Lasky, Tom Kirby, Hank Hankinson, and Red Burman. Lasinski is a former na- tional amateur champion whose record includes an even split with George Fitch, and wins over Tiger Roy Williams and FaniS TZanato- poulos. The winner may be matched with Steve Carr, an added incentive.
 Matchmaker Charlie Pilkington will back up this promising scrap with several amateur classics, in- cluding the following: Kid Sal Carabetta, Meriden, vs Little Cae- sar, Hartford; Art Smith, Meriden vs Bobby Ellis, New Britain; Vic Galatti, New Britain vs Freddie Martin, New Haven; and Al Rob- erts, New Britain vs Bill Martin, New Haven.

Sidney Wood May Seek Dauis Cup Berth
$4,00 Q RAGE. AT ROCKINGHAM NEXT SATURDAY
Granite State Handicap Upset Probable; Selma
 lad Is FavOrite

Salem, N. H., July 19. - Weights for the Granite State Handicap, $4, ,000- added feature to be run over the mile and one-sixteenth route at Rockingham Park on Saturday, will be announced by racing secretary, John P. Turner tonight.
 The racing at the old Rock has been cheerio, not to say toodle- -doo, but the Granite State Handicap on Saturday should equal, if not excel, the blistering battle that was pro- vided in the Tomlin Handicap on last Saturday. There are 32 nom nations, including such stick-outs as Flying Scot, Sun Egret, Birthday, Piccolo, Teufel, Unfailing, Passport, Bootless, Infantry, Accolade, Gerald, High Velocity Third Party, Bit of Sorrow, and Poligroso 2nd, and, as or this day and date, it appears prob- able that there will be no less than a dozen starters in the Saturday feature.
 Two handicaps were on the card last Saturday, and the two high weighed horses-Preeminent in the Tomlin and Bootless in the Jeffer- son came traipsing past the judges stand in front, so that the followers of horse-racing will await with interest Turner's announcement of the weights, to discover just how he rates the best reuters in the east. The Maplewood Stakes on Wednes- day will bring to the racing strip the best two year old colts and geld ings in the East, for their first jaunt at five and one-half furlongs. Rac- ing secretary Turner, who is never far off in his predictions, expected that the starters would be Max Hirsch's Praetariaes, w. L. Brann's Challeden, Ral Paris War Moon, Greentree Stables Third Degree, Manhasset Stables Roman Hero, J. w. Y. Martins Mavoc, John Hay Whitney's Sidney Carton, Bayard Tuckerman, Jr's., Flying Jack, Mrs. David Buckley's Gossip Time, Par agon Stables Selmalad, and Mrs. F. c. Dunn's Friendly Paul.
 Throughout the nation, two years olds have been slower in developing this year than in a number of years, among the colts and geld ings. Maybe, for the good of the sport, it is well to develop them slow ly and carefully and certainly, from the point of view of Rockingham officials, it has been a good thing, for the Maplewood Stakes looms up as a wide-open proposition. And out of the five and one-half fur longs test may come juvenile which is destined to go on to the heights.
 Selmalad, third to Heather Time and Charlotte Girl, a pair of fillies, in the 10000 MayfloWer Stakes, will probably rule the ravorite, but own- CTS and trainers have been pointing for this event, and an upset is prob- able.

ARMSTRONG OPENS TRAINING GRIND
Title Meeting at Polo Grounds Set for Night
 of August 10

With exactly three weeks in which to reach peak form, Henry Armstrong today began hard train- ing preparations at Pompton Lakes, N. J., for his meeting with Lou Ambers, world lightweight cham pion, at the Polo Grounds August 10. Ambers has already meen work ing out for the past several days at Summit, N. J.
 Unlike many fighters, who re- quire a month or more to attain top notch form, Armstrong feels that three weeks are plenty for him He never allows himself to get out of condition and he hasn't been idle since annexing the welter- weight title from Barney Ross last May 30.
 True, he has done no boxing but he has done considerable gymna- sium work and pitched frequently for his softball team, the Arm strong Dynamiters. In consequence, he believes his big job in camp is to sharpen his punching, as his physical condition is satisfactory He plans to begin his sparring ses- sions later in the week, probably on Saturday.
 In the Ambers contest, Arm strong will be required to make weight" for the first time since he captured the first of his two crowns, the featherWeight from Petey Sar- ron last October. Since then he has been boxing lightweights and and welters and his weight has jumped up to around 140. He must scale 135 pounds or under for Am bers, though the necessity of reach ing that mark is likely to prove no hardship.
 The double champion, who hopes to become triple title-holder, an- ticipated far more trouble with Ambers than he had with Ross. He was a spectator at the Los Angeles fight recently in which the light weight king defeated Jimmy Vaughn and he has developed a keen respect for Ambers' speed endurance, and ring generalship, to say nothing of the 135-pound divi- sion rulers lightning-like left hand.
 Tickets for the Ambers-Arm- strong lightweight title match are selling at gratifying pace both at the Hippodrome and at Madison Square Garden. The tickets are priced at $16.50, $11.50, $5.75, $3.50 and $2.50 for reserved seats.
