CARLO AND SAL SAVE RING SHOW.
 WITH HOT DRAW
LOvett OutpOintS Eagle; !; Pep Classy; Craig, Gian-
 eIIi Win By K. 0. Route

Very much as expected Tommy Ciarlo of Waterbury and Kid Sal Carabetta of Meriden provided the real action on a five bout profes- sional fight program which attract ed 2,300 paying patrons to Ran dolph- Cloves stadium last night. Ciarlo, after flooring the tough Sal with whistling right hook in the opening round could not put him away with the result that the six rounder went the limit and wound up all even in the official opinion of Referee Jim Calvin. Ciarlo seemed to fade" particularly in the fuorth and fifth rounds, after a flying start, but came to life in the final round which he won by a gnat'S eyelash. Undoubt- edly the pair will meet again some where and soon, for it's a natural return scrap, here, there or any, where.
 StinkerOO
 In the main bout of eight rounds which was odoriferous on ice, in solar as its entertainment or &C., tion was concerned, Larry Lovett, heavy-muscled, square-shouldered Hartford negro outpointed Charley Eagle of Waterbury. Lovett wouldn't fight and Eagle couldn't do his timing, skill and general ring work being so bad that it was hard to believe he is the same boy who fought a draw in Madison Square Garden not six months ago, against one of the best 'light-heavies in the east, Tommy Tucker. Both Lov- cit and Eagle were guilty of much holding, more wrestling and little or no fighting, not half dozen clean punches scored by both of them in the eight rounds.
 Luckily, the Ciarlo-Sal number went on after the main bout, and, from a promotional standpoint, saved the show. Willie Pep, Hart ford featherweight had too much class for Joey Marcus of Windsor Locks though the latter gave Pep a hard fight all the way. Pep, for mer state bantam champ, and not more than IT or IS years of age now, showed one of the finest left hand attacks ever seen in a local ring.
 Sam Craig of Waterbury, stopped Irish Mickey Donahue in the fourth round of a sixer. It seemed Mickey tried to take the "easy way out" in the very first round, but Referee Jim Calvin made him

turns this year to strengthen the left flank while Vince Dennery, hero of a 99-yard run against Pitt, will be at right end. Jim Lansing and Steve Ritinski, two sopho- mores, are the alternates.
 At center will be the rough-and- ready Lou DeFilippo, who, unless a chronic knee injury returns to plague him, should follow ably in the footsteps of such Fordham greats as Tony Siano, Johnny Del Isola and Alex Wojciechowicz, Frank Crotty, a junior, and three sophomores provide a formidable relief group. On the basis of spring drills, sophomore Frank Mcintyre, brother of the Notre Dame pivot man, has slight edge on the other reserves.
 Joe Ungerer and John Kuzman are a cinch to fill the first string tackle berths, with Alex Santilli, Steve Hudacek and Tony Serpe lined up behind them.
 Two Guards Back
 Two juniors, Larry Sartori, and Tom Bennett, both of whom did q good job in the guard posts dur ing the 1889 season, will hold down their regular positions. Senior Joe Lucas and Andy Peters and Matt Maryanski, Sophomores, are the relief corps.
 Only an acute case of optimism could find anything to cheer about in the Rams rugged 1940 Sched- ule, which marks their 51st year of varsity football, the Centenary Year of the university, and coach Crowley's eighth season. The schedule:
 , October s. West Virginia at New York.
 October 12 = Tulane at New York.
 October 19 - Pitt at Pittsburgh. October 26 - St. Mary's at New York.
 November 2 = North Carolina at New York. November g. Purdue at New York. November q = Arkansas at

New York, Sept. 4.-Fred Egan is typical of trotting horse men, win ner of his first Hambletonian stake at 60. The sulky sport is an old mans game, and the great danger is that this most wholesome form of racing may pass out with them.
 Several years ago, E. Roland liar riman, president of the Grand Cir cult, told me it was a race against time said young fellows had to be interested if the pastime he seeks to perpetuate in memory of his father, Edward H., was to be saved. Since then only two young men Of prominence have entered the stand ard bred field-Dunbar w. Bostwick and Elbridge T. Gerry of the old Westbury families.
 Meanwhile, the running horse yearly recruits the young Wander bilts and ChryslerS. The modern age leans to the fast sport. It hasn't time for tedious scoring, and pre- fers jockeys astride to cumbersome carts.
 While Goshen will continue to have its one big day with the Ham, bletonian, which New Workers have adopted as their corn tassel derby,

Steve Beuoise Gets Chance for Big Time In Go With Garcia
Special to The Democrat)

New York, Sept. 16 - The two hardest punchers in the middle weight division, Ceferino Garcia, former champion, and Steve Bel loise, crack young Bronxie, clash in an important ten-round contest at Madison Square Garden on Thurs day night.
 Belloise has but recently come up out of the preliminary ranks to as- sume a foremost position among the leading contenders for top honors in the 16O-pound class. He has had only 31 professional f1ghts-he never competed as an amaeur-and has won his last 24 in row. He last two of his first six fights but since then is unbeaten.
 During the past few months he has knocked out Winnie Vines, Ed die Dunne, Vic Dellicurti, and Wicky Harkins, and has out-pointed Tony Ferrara and Sammy Luftspring. Dunne, Dellicurti, and Harkins were all hattened in a single heat.
 Tough Foe
 Garcia, of course is far and away the most formidable opponent Bel loise has ever faced. The Filipino, who knocked out Fred Apostoli a year ago to win the middleweight championship which he subsequent ly lost to Gen Overlin, is determin- ed to regain his lost laurels and is assured of title shot if he disposes of BelloiSe.
 Garcia arrived in the East last week from Los Angeles and is work ing out daily at Dr. Bier'S camp in Pompton Lakes, N. J., where he is showing all his great punching form. Belloise, who did his preliminary training in the country, is now at the Pioneer gymnasium.
 Matchmaker Nat Rogers has sign ed Dave Castilloux, Canadian light weight champion, and Paul DeBello, New York State lightweight title holder, for the eight-round semi final to Belloise- Garcia. Two six round bouts bring together Lou (Peanuts) Barbetta, Corona, L. l., featherweight, and Thomas (Cur- ley) St. Angelo, Bronx; Irwin (Kay) Kaplan, Coast welter, and Jerry Fiorello, Bensonhurst.
 Two four-rounders list Hank Postaway, Detroit, and Gomez Maya, Cuban light-heavy; Aaron Seltzer, Bronx lightweight, and Cur ley Nichols, of Brownsville.

.L|GHTHEAVY RING
 STARS BATTLE AT MISC TONIGHT
Veteran Handicappers Do Not See Reason for Long
 Odds on Pittsburgher
BY HARRY FERGUSON United Press Sports EditOr)

New York, Sept. 6.-(UP)-It's tough to have to reveal a secret, but the truth of the matter is that Billy Conn and Bob Pastor are going to fight tonight at Madison Square Garden.
 Conn is an II to 5 favorite in this 15-round go between a couple of powder puff punchers, neither of whom can hit hard enough to break a window with brass knucks.
 The big town is taking the fight strictly in its stride and for 8 while it seemed that the boys would go the 15 rounds with nobody in the Garden except their seconds and the night watchman. Yesterday there was a little more interest, however, and Promoter Mike Jacobs even began talking about the possibility of a $5O,00O gate.
 Men wise in the ways of boxing shake their heads in bewilderment over the long price on Conn. They figure the fight should be an even- money proposition and some even concede Pastor slight edge. The dough-re-mi that the public lays down determines odds, however, and the public is highly Conn conscious.
 Not Too Heavy
 Conn, light heavyweight cham pion of the world, is making this raid into the heavyweight ranks in the hopse that he can climb all the way to shot at Joe Louis title. The Pittsburgh kid has filled out bi: around the shoulders and upper arms, but he and everybody else will be surprised If he weighs in above 180 at noon.
 Pastor will be slightly heavier, but there won't be enough differ ence between them to put Conn at a serious disadvantage.
 ' Despite the fact that neither boy qualities as a knockout artist. 1t ought to be a good fight. Conn, flashiest boxer among the big boys, seems to have kept all his speed while picking up weight. He Stlli can move around like forked light ming and he stil has that peerless left jab with which to sting his op- ponents and threw them off balance.
 Pastor, defeated twice by Louis, hits a bit harder than Conn, but he vii! never be arrested for knocking his way through a concrete wall. HIS best blow is right to the heart and he probable will start wham- ming away at Conn's body from the start.

Kramer New 'Find' As Net Threat For
 Singles Crown
BY LESLIE AVERY

United Press Staff CorrespOndent)
 New York, Sept. 6 - U.P0 - For two years a young Californian with Prussian haircut trouped the tour- nament circuit banging balls with all his might trying to be second Ellsworth Vines," but it wasn't until he decided to be himself, just plain Jack Kramer, that he became threat for the nationa lsingles ten- his championship.
 Today, 19-year-old Jackie, who with Ted Schroeder won the nation al doubles title only two weeks ago, plays Frankie Parker for a place in the semi-finals of the 59th United States Singles Championship. For kid who could win only one match in the nationals in two previous tries, the improvement in his game is obvious.
 When I came east in 1888, they started building me up as another Vines," Gramer explained. T was playing well enough for 17-year- old but I decided if I was going to follow Vines footsteps, I'd have to start slugging the ball. And that is just what I've been doing-and get ting nowhere for two years"
 Has The Shots
 Kramer will be the under-dog when he walks out on the court to play Parker who is the second rank ing player in the United States, but those who have seen him dispose of Henry Prusoff, Sydney B. Wood, Ed Alloo and Gil Hunt, believe Jack has the shots to win.
 In the other mems quarter-hnal today, second-seeded Don McNeill of Oklahoma City, is favored over Elwood Cooke of New York, seeded eighth.
 Also a surprise quarter-f -finalist was Kramer's side-kick, the serious Schroeder but no one gives him a chance to get past defending Cham pion Bobby Riggs when they meet tomorrow. Frankie Govacs and Joe Hunt, No. 3 and 5 respectively in the seedlings, also play tomorrow com- pleting the quarter-flnalS
 Queen Alice
 Women's play will be featured by defending Champion Alice Marbles match with Helen Bernhard, the New York tennis Cinderella. AL though she is the fourth ranking player in the country, Miss Bern hard barely pulled her match out of the fire in three extra-game sets with Margaret Osborne of San Francisco yesterday so she can hardly be expected to bother Queen Alice.
 Opening match on today's pro- gram sends sixth ranking Dorothy Bundy of Santa Monica, Cal, against Valerie Scott, the English girl, who is seeded second on the foreign list.

 New York, Sept. 6 = (U.P0-The Fordham well of backf1eld material is flowing over this year and, while the last fragments of the Rams un- beaten 1897 Stone-Wallers" are gone and the defensive units have been riddled by graduation, Ma room Mentor Jimmy Crowley is expected to put one of the East's best teams on the gridiron this fall.
 Attention on the Rose Hill cam- pus these days, where two-a-day practice sessions have opened IS being focused on the backfield where spectacular Len Eshmont and Jimmy Blumenstock will pro- vide the nucleus of a fashy of- fense. Neither Eshmont nor Blu menstock lived up to advance notices last season although both did well enough to rate praise.
 Blumenstock has been shifted to the fullback post, vacated by the hard driving Dom Principe, but will have plenty of competition from herculean Pole, Steve Fila powicz, who can throw a pass far ther than Blumenstock and at the same time put them where he wants 'em.
 Quinn Whippet Back
 Walter Quinn and Ed Shedlosky appear to be the best of the right halfback candidates. Quinn is a small, whippet-like type of runner while Shedlosky brother of Pitts fine halfback of '34 and '35, has spirit and speed and good open field sense. Other backs who fiji into that picture are Joe Principe and Frank Pezzella, juniors and Bill Kellagher, a sophomore.
 Both Angelo Fortunate and Cap tain Bill Krywicki were graduated last June, so the f1rst-string quar- terback duties probably will be as- signed to Jimmy Noble, who got into action frequently enough last fall to know what big time com petition is like. Other signal callers will be Claude Pieculewicz a junior, and Jimmy Hearn, a sophomore.
 On the line the Maroon will be light on the ends and fairly solid through the middle.
