.DANBUY, BRISTOL BOYS HEADLINE
 OUTDOOR SHOW
Guerrard and White Paired in Heavy Bout Craig
 vs Brown

If Jackie Perrin, the younger of the two Bristol brothers can follow up his victory of last week over Charley Baginski of Springfield, the New England featherweight cham pion, with win over Gil Baby facen Morris the able Danbury can1- paigner tonight at Randolph Gloves stadium, Perrin will become another Danny Houlihan" insofar as local drawing power is concerned.
 Good Boy
 Perrin was "on his game" so much last week that he might have knocked out the able Baginski in the first round, when "Baggy" was floored in a neutral corner at the end of two-handed attack that was started by Perrin at the opening bell. Morris will be remembered as the boy who was well on his way to win over Bobby Ellis of New Bri- tain when he stopped a short punch with his chin and was counted out just like that. If he can beat Perrin, the runner-up in the state tourna- ment for lightweight honors, MOTHS is a sure shot for the next card or two in iths city. Morris rarely puts in bad fight, while Perrin has been a top-notcher for two years.
 Heavy, Battle
 Norman Guerrard, the Litchfield heavyweight should get a pretty thorough test from Willie White, the Brooklyn big boy who has had quite little experience and has been in training for several weeks, hoping for chance to show his ring wares before the home town folks again, This time, Guerrard will be up against someone near his own weight who can punch hard enough to knock him down-which was hardly true on Ken Reinhardt who lost twice in a row to the 190 pound Litchfielder.
 Others on the card tonight n- clude: Jim McBurnie, Torrington. and Billy Marcus, Hartford; Emil Etters, Waterbury's amusing leath- CT pusher, and Tony Kodak, Tor rington; and Sam Craig and Billy Brown, an ll-Watebury bout.
 Joe Wallace, Jackie Moriarty, Jack Paoli and Frankie Mars, Wa terbury; Frankie Radigan, Torring- ton; and Lou Leonard, Bristol, will also appear on the card.

Krompier To Challenge
 Coskey In Courtroom

Bridgeport, Conn.,, June 1-CUP) Marty Krompier, manager of hea- vyweight Nathan Mann, announced today he would challenge in the courts the right of State Boxing Commissioner Frank s. Coskey to ban him from any connection with fight activities in Connecticut.
 Coskey revoked Krompier'S li- cense last Friday, less than AS hours after the Al Mccoy Nathan Mann fight here was ended in the third round following alleged numerous statute violations by Mann's sec- ondS.
 The bout was awarded to Mccoy; Benny Leonard, guest referee, was barred permanently from refereeing in Connecticut rings; and Krom- piers license to manage was re- voked permanently.
 Krompier issued this statement:

 By TeleUision

New York, June 1.-CUP)- The Max Baer-Lou Nova fight will be taken into homes, clubs and gathering places of thou sands of fans by television to- night, for the first time a regu- larly scheduled boxing event has been reproduced on the air pictorially in America.
 For radio, this is as historic
 an occasion as the Dempsey Carpentier match at BOyle's Thirty Acres in 1921, first fight ever put on the air vocally. Promoter Mike Jacobs has CO., operated with National Broad
 casting company in supplying the fight to those who have ac- cess to television sets. Jacobs,
 described as "rabid" television fan, was understood to have
 given" the fight to NEG with
 out charge in the belief that it will return huge dividends in
 the years to come.

of commissioner who can without even giving a man hearing or listening to his side of the story, rule a man out of business he had successfully and honestly engaged in for many years.
 "If that is constitutional, I want to find it out, and intend to chal- lenge it in order to find out.
 "As matter, doubt if Coskey can legally be boxing commissioner under any such law, or if any such law is legal. I am going to let my lawyers decide whether to fight this thing out in the federal courts or in the courts of the State of Connecti- cut"
 Coskey charged there were more than three seconds in Mann's cor ner during the fight, direct viola tion of the boxing statutes. "There was an unruly mob in his corner" {" the commissioner added.
 Then, he charged Mann's seconds threw water on his face during one of the four second round knock downs in an effort to revive him.
 Again, Coskey charged during an- other knockdown, Mann's seconds held his leg to keep him from get ting off the floor before taking a nine-count.
 Further, the commissioner said another in the Mann camp grabbed the time-keeper's mallet and banged the bell 50 seconds before the end of the second round in an effort to save Mann from knockout. Benny Leonard was accused, dur ing 8 count on one of the knock downs, of pushing Mann with his hand and forcibly keeping him on one knee until a nine-count had been tolled.
 Coskey further alleged Leonard pushed Mccoy away from Mann during the second round assault anc prohibited the Boston fighter from landing knockout punch while Mann was virtually out on his feet Again, Leonard was accused oi needing the premature bell ano ending the second round after only two minutes and 10 seconds had been fought.

Tricky Tournament
 | Has Is Golf Stars Play For $l,OOO

New York, June 1-UP)-Fifteen sweet-swinging professional golfers prepared to march out today over the long, rolling course of the Fresh Meadow Country club on the first round of the most complicated tour- nament ever devised.
 For four days they will battle against par, each other and the ad- ding machines-to see who gets top prize of $1,000 on Sunday night when the sun sinks on this affair known as the $5,000 Goodall Round Robin tournament.
 And, despite an involved system of scoring, the boys agreed today that the man who takes the fewest strokes to play 126 holes will haul down the major portion of the cash. And most of lem think the man is "slammin" Sammy Snead.
 The draw is so arranged it took a half dozen mathematicians two days to figure this out-that the boys go out each time in five three somes, and nobody eyer is in the same company twice.
 Scorers Headache
 For each hole won from the other two partners, player gets a plus one and the losers receive a minus one. When it's all over the golfer with the best plus score gets the major share of the booty.
 Of the IS men who play, only two of them-Walter Hagen and Jimmy Thomson-are not eligible for next weeks national open at Phialdel- phia.
 The starters today, in addition to Hagen and Thomson, are Ralph Guldahl, winner of the last two opens; P. c. A. Champion Paul Rynyan; Jimmy Hines; Craig Wood; Dick Metz; Johnny Revolta; Harry Cooper; Olin Dutra; Ben Hogan; Denny Shute. Horton Smith; Tony Penna, and Snead.
 Today's pairings are: Runyan- Hines Thomson; Guldahl-Metz- Wood; Revolta -Snead- -Dutra; Coop er-Hagen-Shute Hogan Penna- Smith.

PEPE vs ANDREWS

New Haven, June 1--George Per ', Meriden southpaw, will test Willie Andrews. New Haven lightweight, when the latter makes his Con- necticut pro debut at the Arena on Monday night. The aforementioned pair will meet in a six-round bout topping a pro-amateur card.
 Andrews, winner of IS out of 16 starts in Florida, Texas and Califor- nit rings, is rated the best prospect out of this city at the present time. Pope, who dropped close decision to Julie Kogan in a great fight last week, will have plenty of trouble on his hands with Andrews. who is Q sturdy puncher as we'll as a clever boxer.
 Mickey Williams, New Haven lightweight. will box a formidable opponent in one of the ten amateur bouts on the card.

Bob FeDer's Form Better
 Styled To Win Games

try lad led the league in 1888 with 240 strikeouts. He won seven of his first nine games.
 His outstanding performance of the young season was on May 25 when he held the Red Sox to one hit, famed 10 and issued five passes. Feller's record after this game was 68 struck out in T in- nings He yielded 54 hits and walk ed 36 in the same number of inn ings.
 Teller appeared in 39 games in 1888, pitched 278 innings and struck out 240, which gave him approximately g of strikeout per inning. In Il innings of his first nine games this season, he had 68 batters swinging helplessly, which gives him slightly higher figures than in 1888.
 Start Better in 1889 If Teller continues to take his regular turn every four days, as he has been doing. he will appear in almost the same number of games he did last season and will pitch like amount of innings. However, the former Van Meter, Ia., high school boy has gat of to better start than last year, which should change his won-and-lost record. Most base ball observers are agreed that he should wipe of some of the II losses he had on the debit side of the ledger last season,
 Feller's 1899 record hinges on a number of big ifs" but one thing Is certain, the hurler has increased his effectiveness by gaining con- trol of his fast one.
 Teller set new modern major- league record in 1888 by issuing POS free tickets. But he has changed this season.
 In his first start of the year against Detroit he beat the Tigers with a three hitter, one of them a home-run by Barney McCoskey. This tight hurling was capped by his remarkable restraint in giving bases on balls. He passed only two Tigers for the lowest number of passes he has given in any game in his career with the Indians.
 Wild Against Yankees
 Tn five of his first seven games he passed four or fewer per game. His biggest streak of wildness came against the Yankees when he gave 10 walks. and against Chi- cago when he walked seven.
 Baseball comment from the fans has changed now from last season when Teller was setting the rcc- ord he tried nightly to avoid. The fans said then. well. see that Teller gave his usual 10 walks yesterday
 Now it's. ~say, Teller walked seven yesterday. Must have had a biistercd finger"
 Another parallel that the young pitcher has drawn and which nc points io Is tho 125 hits which De yielded ln 11o innings last season.
