event
In the Semi-Windup Box Car ia
CobS will oppose Sonny Lamont the
India rubber man. and in the open
er. Joe Woods. a genuine South
African. will battle Fred Villarta,
Filipino grappler. who presently IS
seeking a bout with Pantheon Man
lopig. Filipino champion.
While the preliminary bouts will
be the finest staged in the valley
arena. principal interest has cen
tered on the Szabo-El Pulpo battle.
Szabo ana FL PulpO are far and
away the most Colorful grapplers
on the circuit at the present time
and Matchmaker Pete Buzukos re-
portedly was forced to pull some
strings to line up the bouts.
Szabo has tossed every grappler
except Jimmy Londos during the
past year and recently won the Pa
cific Coast tournament champion
ship El Pulpo. who employs his
octopus hold with amazing sue
cess. is always a dangerous oppo-
nent, however. and when he applies
the hold the wear and tear on the
opposition is terrific.

TAMPA. Fla, March 26. up
Don't ever tell ME again that a dog
Is mans best friend. I'd much rath-
er turn to an opossum in an hour
of need than to a dog, if that dog
happened to be a greyhound rae
ing dog. An opossum might not ac-
tually render you any assistance,
but at least he wouldn't do you
any harm.
Such is not true of a racing grey
hound who invariably bites the
hand that feeds him through the
pari-mutuel windows. Lest I seem
overly bitter on the matter, Just
step INTO my shoes with me and
allow me to explain the circum-
stances.

Ht I HtSuSO NuOS
This is the time OF the year when
the experts start guessing about
the chances of baseball teams in
the major league races.
To date most of the second guess
ers have omitted the Chicago Cubs
from the contender list, that is all
except Manager Gabby Harrnett.
Hartnett IS plnning his hopes on
the comeback of Clay Bryant. a 10
game winner in 1898. Bryant pitch
ed only 81 innings last year VIM
ming two and losing one.
If Bryant fails to click, Hartnett
still has row of hurlers that will
give any batter trouble. First there
is the great question mark. Dizzy
Dean. who's back again trying to
make eood-at a far smaller salary
than last year And there are South
paw Larry French, Big Bill Lee.
and Claude PaSSeau ready TO carry
the big burden if Bryant and Dean
fail TO come through. In addition.
such excellent rookie prospects as
Julio Bonettl, Verne Olsen and Ken
RalIensberger stood out during
early training at Catalina Island.
The catching is well under con-
trol with Al Todd who played for
BROOKLYN last year, holding down
the varsity job. And if Rockies
Bob Collins or Clyde McCullough
don't make the grade, Hartnett can
always step in and help out.
The main item of uncertainty is
