Today's Sport Parade
By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

New York, May 26-CUP)-Armed with letter from his Pastor-his Bob Pastor-James Joy Johnston is taking a sort of galloping poll of this town to determine whether or not it is interested in ever seeing Jce Louis in a real prizefight.
 James Joy Johnston, who is known to his intimates as the Boy Bandit, manages the New York heavyweight, Pastor, and in his pocket has a let ter from his man offering to meet for the heavyweight title, winner take all.
 He thinks such bout should be Arranged immediately, before Louis dies of boredom from the steady and relentless diet of pushovers, an- cients, round heelers, has-beens, and never-weres that are being fed him fo rone-round slaughter
 'That Louis is liable to keel right over in the ring some night from sheer-well, what shall we say?- ennui. What bunch of buns they give him to fight"
 At MT. Johnston's mention of buns I spruced up and paid the rapt attention due a man speaking on a subject on which he is an au- thority. And MT. Johnston yields to no man in his knowledge of the boxfight bum. He mas managed some of the finest of them, includ- ing the swooning swan of Soho, Phil Scott. and can trace the bum right back to his beginning.
 In his discussion of the subject
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-05-26

MT. Johnston reeled off a list Of Louis recent opponents, and closed with discussion of the demerits of Tony Galento. He hatly stated that given Is minutes in which to train, he, Johnston, could f1attan Galento. He spoke almost as disparagingly Of Baer and questioned that he was in the throes of a comeback.
 Comeback from Where:
 "A comeback from where?" John- ston asked from beneath the derby he has worn since he was a child of four ,romping with carefree aban- don on the docks of Liverpool. Where was he ever at to start Q comeback from?"
 The grammatical construction of this last sentence all but tied him up, but he extricated himself and went on:
 There are only two fighters in the world today-Louis and Pastor. Louis is the harder hitter, perhaps he is the hardest hitter who ever lived, but he never would hit the Pastor of today. You should of seen him against Roscoe Toles in De- troit. Surprised even me, and that's saying something. You wouldn't know him as the same boy who fought Louis two years ago. He was just beginning then, didn't know half of what he does now, but he lasetd 10 rounds and never was in danger"
 But he didn't fight that way now just retreated rom corner to cor- ner, rope to rope-we reminded MT. Johnston.
 What's wrong with that? Is there a law compelling man to fight Louis the way Louis wants him to? That is, charge in and mix it. Be- sides, if Louis was the great fighter ever yone believes him to be why didn't he catch Pastor and belt him out? Toles ran from Bob, but Bob cornered him and beat the day. lights out of him. The proof that Pastor is a fighter is the way Louis evades all mention of a fight with him. He wants no part of Bob. Still, I don't suppose you can blame a champion from doding a fellow who can lick him as long as pro- motors fill his pockets with money for fighting buns who couldn't qualify for first class scarecrows :. Let me tell you :"
 I slipped through a trap door that MT. Johnston has thoughtfully provided for the escape of his guests, and made my way out onto the street.

GUEST REFS OUT
 IN CONNECTICUT
 DEPUTY RULES
Benny Leonard Planned for Work in Bridge
 port Bout

Hartford, Conn, May 26. -. (UP) The "death-knell' of guest referees for boxing bouts in Connecticut sounded today following the riatous conclusion in the third round of the Al Mccoy Nathan Mann New England heavyweight boxin,; cham pionship bout at Bridgeport We'd nesday night.
 Deputy State Boxing Commis- sioner Basil Fitzpatrick said, in the future none other than licensed Connecticut referees would be per- mitted to officiate at boxing con- tests. Benny Leonard was the guest referee in the McCoy-Mann fight, which ended in mo contest.
 Leonard was subjected to scorch- ing criticism for his actions during the second round when Mccoy knocked Mann down four times. Once, Leonard pushed Mccoy away from Mann as the Boston fighter had Natey on the ropes in groggy condition.
 ue OLdL6 AtllletlC OOIIuulSSlOiA was expected to begin sweeping investigation into circumstances surrounding the bout. Meantime, at New Haven, Marty Krompier, man. ager of Mann, was quoted as deny ing he grabbed the timekeeper's mal- let in the second round and banged the bell 50 seconds before the end of the round.
 He said he would present evidence at a commission hearing proving he was not the one who struck the bell. Leonard needed the premature ring of the bell and sent both fighters to their corners. State Boxing Com missioner Coskey stopped the bout in the third round.
 The commissioner considered these other charges:
 That Mann's handlers poured water on his face as the fighter lay taking a nine-count in the second round.
 That, on another knockdown in the same round, his handlers held his leg to the canvass so Mann wouldn't get up before a nine count.

Galway And Kerry Kickers At Polo Grounds Sunday
Special to The DemocraD

Especial to The DemocraD ...
 New York, May 26-Galway, All- Ireland champions, will annex the International Gaelic Football tro- phy, donated by James Reeves, if it defeats Kerry at the Polo Grounds on Sunday. The coveted award will go to the gallant men of the west as a reward for being the first to win over New York and Kerry in the three-cornered competition.
 Galway turned back New York last Sunday at Innisfail Park by a 12 to g score. Sundays game is the secon dbetween Galway and Kerry on the current tour, the first, played at the Yankee Stadium on May IA, being won by Kerry by a 12 to 7 score.
 Last Game
 On Memorial Day Galway and Kerry will make their farewell ap- pearances. The games, to be played at the Yankee Stadium, will witt ness Kerry meeting New York and Galway the New York second se- lection.
 Gayway enters the field Sunday bolstered by the incentive to win the International Trophy and the return to action of two of its stars, Johnny Burke and Charley Con- molly. Due to injuries, both have been on the sidelines during the current tour. Burke's playing was greatly responsible for Galway's victory for the title in Ireland.
 Both Kerry and Galway men have fully recovered from sea legs and one of the fastest and most skillful football games ever witt messed here is anticipated. Tippe- rary and Offaly will meet in a pre- liminary hurling game.

HOLT GETS TO SEMI FINALS
 AT HOYLAKE
Chapman Out 5 and } of British Amateur Golf
 Tourney

Hoylake, Eng, May 26-(UP)- Bill Holt, Jr., a husky dark-haired Syracuse, N. r., youth, smashed into the semi-final round of the 54th British golf tournament as his last surviving countryman, Dick Chap man, of Greenwich, Conn, fell by the wayside.
 Holt scored 3 and 2 victory over IT year old Kenneth Thom Chap man, who defeated defending cham pion Charlie Yates in the third round, was eliminated 5 and 4 by Anthony Duncan, member of prominent Welsh golfing family.
 Chapman, who had to scramble to win his two matches yesterday, was two down at the turn and was not able to pull out of that hole. Holt was one up at the end of nine.
 Tournament favorites was elim- mated when Veteran Alex Kyle de- feated 10-year-old James Bruen of Ireland, up. In the other quarter final match, Charlie Stowe defeated Sam Roberts, one up.
 After lunch, the four survivors went out again-Holt against Kyle and Stowe against Duncan-for the 18-hole serni-finals that send two of them into tomorrow's champion ship battle of 36 holes.
 Chapman was far off line with his drives today and his chip shots, usually the most accurate part of his game, failed to click. He got into bad hole early in the match and never was able to recover.
 He trapped his drive on the first hole and took a bogey five against Duncan's four. Both were over with fives on the second. On the third. Chapman took six. one over, when he was trapped again off the tee. That left Duncan two up.
 Chapman sank a 24-foot putt for deuce on the fourth-the only hole he won during the entire match. They halved the next three holes and Duncan went two up with a par five against Dicks six on the eighth. Chapman missed a five-foot putt there for a half. They split the ninth and tenth holes. Duncan went three up on the 11th with a par three when Chapman's chip shot was short.
 Chapman's second shot was car- ried over the green on the 18th. He clipped back weakly and got a five against Duncan's par four. That left the American four down. They had pars on the next two holes. On the 18th, Dick had a bogey five against Duncan's par four. Chapman sliced his drive into the rough, slammed his second to the left of the green and his third shot went over. He clipped back short. Duncan, on the green in two, putted up safely for four. But, before he holed out, Chapman walked over end ccr reded the match, saying that's okay."

ARMSTRONG 6 IS
 RATED GREATEST
American Wins From ROd= erick in Title Bout;
 Ambers Next
By Art Krenz
By HARRY PERCY

United Press Staff CorrespOndent)
 London, May 26-(UP)-Henry Armstrong, acclaimed as the great est fighter ever seen in the British Isles, sailed with his wife and daugh- ter for Paris today for weekend of sightseeing before returning home to the United States.
 London fight fans, after watching Hurricane Henry batter their favor ite, Ernie Roderick, into helpless bulk in the welterweight title fight last night, still wondered about two things:
 I How can Armstrong maintain such a furious pace for 15 rounds?
 2. How did Roderick stay on his feet under such a relentless attack?
 The dejected Roderick, who was nearly Il pounds heavier than Arm strong, and had height and reach advantage, echoed the sentiment of the spectators.
 T did my best" he said, "but I couldn't beat the greatest fighter in the world"
 Armstrong said that Roderick "is as game as they come" and added that Ernie's style baffled him for the first few rounds.
 Armstrong didn't come out of the fight entirely unscathed, however, as he aggravated the 1eft-hand in- jury he suffered in his last U. s. fight against Davey Day. He said he expected a tough fight from Lou Ambers in New York, August 9.
 Despite the hit Armstrong made with the public, the fight was not a financial success. With tickets scaled up to $51.25, the fewer than $7,OO0 fans did not half fill Harring- way arena. Some estimates placed the gate receipts at less than 10000, and Henry was supposed to have been guaranteed $48,000. It was the first world welterweight title fight ever held in the British Isles, and in retaining the 147-pound crown, Armstrong scored his 46th straight victory and stopped Roderick's string of g straight wins.
 The more generous scorers gave Roderick the first round of the bout because of his successful left jabbing, but he took far more pun- ishment as the American negro rushed in and failed him with re- lentless lefts and rights to the head. But after that one stand, Armstrong gave Ernie the worst beating of his life.
