'Stupendous, Super-CoIossor
Match Thursday Will Pit
Baxter Against Singh

Here it is folks, the battle of the
century, the match you have been
waiting for and the one Promoter
Joe Turner has spent months trying
to make. It's the most stupendous,
colossal, gigantic mat engagement
ever scheduled here. 1t defies all the
loose -jointed inflnitives in the book.
It's Laverne Baxter against Nanjo
Singh-tWo mighty men of muscle,
and a garantee of rip-roaring action
goes with each and every ticket.
The promoter admits that all of
his matchmaking genius was neces-
sary to book these two great artists
for Thursday night at Turner's
Arena. The haggling over terms
left him worn and exhausted. He
spent nights poring over kilograms,
making long distance telephone
calls and making counter proposals
to lure these doughty men here for
the public's edification. 1t was
terrific task and we'll done.
II want $25 and a half-fare ticket
from Newark" Baxter barked when
first approached. II got blisters on
my feet from my last excursion to
Washington and this time I'm
gonna ride or it's no CO."
Evening star., 1939-06-26

Getting wind Of this outrageous
demand Singh stored his famed
cobra death-grip, and what a hold
that is friends, and upped the ante
in his own direction. Two more
bags of peanuts and hot dawg,"
he draWled in a refreshing Southern
accent. (He's from South India.)
Il can't get enough of those famous
Turner's Arena peanuts, only 5-a-
bag, buy 'em at the counter or from
the boys. The folks tossed me a
few during my last match-mighty
few, and I wants more"
Faced with this perplexing prob
lem, Prof. Turner was saved by
some mighty fast thinking. These
conversations were over a telephone,
so the professor hauled his mouth
piece up close to pan Of bacon
and eggs.
Get a wifi of that boys" he
said. That isn't any transcription,
that's the Mccoy. Last one in town
doesn't get any"
We understand both gentlemen
arrived early this morning to COM
plete training for their historic
joust on a plate Of ham and eggs.

MONTAUK, N. Y, June 26.-Gar
Wood, jr., 21-year- old student at the
University of Tulsa, hasn't much
chance to equal his dads record as
breaker of speed records on water
but he's doing pretty good Job of
winning fame in his own line.
The mild-mannered youth races
the popular little outboard speed
sters instead of the big multi
motored craft his father drives.
He won two national championships
last year and yesterday captured
the national intercollegiate crown
on his first attempt.
First In Seven Heats.
In 10 heats of four classes during
the tWo-day college regatta, Wood
failed to finish first only three times.
He collected 1925 points which won
the individual high-point total for
himself and the coveted team trophy
for Tulsa, the first time the big
trophy has left the East in 10 year,
OF competition.
Wood established three regatta
records, threatening a world record
and failed to make a clean sweep
only because his boat capsized in the
final heat of the class &C" race.
Nears International Mark.
He had set new college class
&C. record of 53603 miles an hour
In winning the first heat then in
creased 1t to 53.731. just short Of his
international record of 1919 In the
second.

him. He amt touched us yet.
Tony'll be as good as ever oncet
they get the splinters out of his
head"
"Hit by Referee" Says Tony.
Result by Tony Galento: Il was
getting set to chop i'm down wit
my left after we had spared around
for an openin' when the referee
conked me from behind with a two
by-four. I was tricked.
Il fought dis was a singles
match, not doubles"
Result by the N. B. A. Ratings
Committee: "The sudden and wholly
unexpected termination of the
Tony Galento-Joe Louis bout for
the heavyweight championship Of
the world at New York June %,
1899, is concrete evidence that this
association was correct in naming
Galento the No. challenger. What
fighter could have withstood the
shock of such q blow and still have
been able to utter the word bum?
The association will continue to
rank Galento as the No. chal-
lenger until such time as somebody
worse beats him. The association
does not recognize ringposts as
bona flde contenders for the title"
Good Fighter in Hospital.
Medical report: TONY Galento is
making a rapid recovery after sus-
tanning severe head and facial in
juries in an accident Wednesday
night at Yankee Stadium. Progress
in picking splinters from his head
was necessarily slow because of the
similarity of the grain. 1t is safe
to say Mr.. Galento will be able to
fight as much as he ever could after
being discharged from the hospital"
Result by Mike Jacobs:
THAT ringpost cost me s12,
and I'm deducting it from
Tony's end Of the purse"
Result by Louis: "Ah doan no
nothin' about it. They tell me
Galento was in there but All couldn't
swear to it. I saw somethin' 60 by
fast right after the bell ring, but it
wasn't no fghter-it was a sprinter."
