Morals Offender Quizzed
In Stab Staying Of Girl
Ry the Associated Press.


SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Aug. 3D.
Although the medical examiner re-
ported preliminary examination
failed to show any signs Of a crirni-
nal attack, morals-offender was
held for questioning today in con-
nection with the Staying of Miss
Rose Lodi, 20, whose mutilated body
was found yesterday near a wooded
area known as hobo jungle"
Meanwhile, police considered the
possibility that extreme hatred or
Jealousy might have been the motive
for the Staying. District Attorney
Moriarty, in an effort to get a
lead" called in a dozen OF the dead
girls relatives and acquaintances.
The partially-clad body Of the at
tractive match factory worker-her
face and body stabbed and a hand
kerchief stuffed in her mouth-was
found yesterday by her father, An
gelo Lodi, who conducted an all
night search after she failed to re-
turn home from work Tuesday night.
Mr.. Moriarty said the man he in
tended to question was 48-year-
old escaped morals offender who was
picked up last night near South
Windsor, Conn. He fed with a
companion Sunday from an Enfield,
Conn. prison farm, which is just
over the State line about 8 miles
from here. The companion, also a
morals offender, is still at large.

Pride Is Likely
To Have Champ
In Fiery Mood
Arturo Given Chance
To Go Limit, but Not
Register Victory
BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

NEW YORK, June 2O.-Arturo
Godoy of Chile. who is something
less than an inspired fighter, gets
his second chance at the world
heavyweight championship tonight,
when, barring rain, he meets Joe
Louis over the 15-round route in
Yankee Stadium.
Their first scrap last February
was far from sensational yet the
mere fact that he lasted the full
Is rounds with the Negro champion
qualified the South American iron
man for an encore. The betting is
to against Godoy lifting the title,
yet most experts give him an ex-
cellent chance of going the limit
again.
The buildup for this, Louis elev-
| enth defense of his crown, has en-
phasized the Negro's well-known
pride in the power of his fists and
his dislike of having an opponent
remain erect at the final bell. He
has without fail knocked out every
man he met the second time, and
his followers are convinced he will
smash Godoy tonight.
Louis in Vengeful Mood.
He might. at that, but the task
promises difficulties. Louis is in
better shape than he was the other
time and is in vengeful frame of
mind. But so is his rugged. power
full rival In better condition, and
Godoy besides is brimming with
confidence born of their other bout.
In size they are about a stand
off.
Godoy possibly is the only fighter.
barring maybe Schmeling and Ga
lento, who has gone into the ring
with Louis the champion totally
without fear and confident of win
ming. That is something on his
side. Also he has proved to his
own satisfaction, at least, that he
can absorb the Louis blasts.
The only thing Arturo appears
to lack, IN fact, is a genuine knock
out punch in his own fists. If Louis
didn't hurt him seriously in their
first fight, then Arturo certainly
did not cause the big Negro anv
great distress except insofar as his
crouching and holding tactics got
on Joes nerves.
Godoy Apt to be Careful
There has been much talk of both
men changing their styles for this
engagement; of Godoy straighten-
ing up and fighting toe-to-toe in
the classic tradition. or Louis bend
ing his head down on a level with
Godoys and going around the ring
with him like couple of vice presi-
dents in deep conference.
But the likelihood is that tonight's
audience of probably 10000 will see
a repetition of the first scrap, with
Godoy bulling in hitting from his
crouch and then clinching, and LOU
is trying furiously to open the Chill
can up for few solid smacks on
the jaw.
Louis has promised to take more
chances than in the first fight, when
he was super-cautious of hurting
his mitts on Godoy's head. His ad-
visers say he is going to toss punches
and make Godoy fight"

Mats Yeorning for Arnistice
After Seven Losses in Row
In Skirn1ishes Out West

and Buddy Myer own the dubious
distinction of being the worst Of the
lot, both humping an ultra
conservative .067.
Continuing along the slightly
boring but revealing line of statis-
tics, the Mats have manufactured
a total of four runs in five of their
last six games, achieving something
of an upset by losing one game to
Detroit by an 81 margin. Other
losses to the Tigers were by 1O-1,
ILL and 30 figures, while at press
time today they had dropped 2.
and Al decisions to Cleveland.
With that sort of swatting there
is no occasion to contemplate criti-
cism of Manager Bucky Harris for
Washingtons tailspin. 1t would re-
quire a combination of Mandrake,
the magician; Cardini and Super
man to obtain pleasing results from
the material at his disposal.
Trosky Slams 18th Homer.
Washington's latest loss was ad-
ministered by Johnny Allen, whose
8-hlt pitching was adequate. The
Mats averted shutout in the sixth
inning when Walker singled to CEN
ter. moved to second as Bonura
walked and scored on Travis double
to left.
That, though, was Washington's
sole satisfaction, for the Indians
had pounced on Ken Chase to pro-
duce 40 lead In the first three
innings and the margin was suf-
flcient for Allen.
In the second inning the Indians
scored three runs on walk to Beau
Bell. singles by Ben Chapman and
Lou Boudreau. and q double by Mr..
Allen. Their fourth run was the re-
suit Of a mighty boudreau, and a
double by Mr.. Allen. Their fourth
suit of mighty home run blast over
the center field fence authored by
towering Hal Trosky. It was his
18th of the season.
Walter MaSterSon was to be Fell
ler's mound foe today and there was
a faint flicker of hope he would be
as effective as the last occasion he
faced the Indians. In that game he
checked Cleveland with four hits to
snatch a 6-1 decision.
The Mats will leave Cleveland to-
night for st. Louis. where they will
launch a 3-game series with q night
contest tomorrow.

CLEVELAND, June 20.-The Ma
tionals are prepared to negotiate for
an honorable peace, what with
enemy bombing keeping them cow
ering in the cellar and the Amerl-
can Leagues most noted howitzer,
Cleveland's Bob Feller, slated to
fire at them today.
Washington's terms were certain
to be rejected, however, for Feller
was a prohibitive favorite to cap
ture victory No. 10. It's getting so
bad the Mats are inclined to regard
rain, threatening weather, wet
grounds or anything instrumental
in postponing game as a moral
triumph.
st. Louis, once regarded as the
core spot in the league, now is be-
ginning to represent Utopia to the
Mats, who have some hope OF &C
cumulating their first win OF a
disastrous trip there after anticlpat-
ing their seventh consecutive SET
back in today's maneuvers.
There is no mystery connected
with Washington chain OF defeats.
As is the case with all consistent
losers. it's hitting has been neither
prolific nor timely and the fielding
has been erratic and amateurish.

Jimmy Pofahl, of all people, was

the select 300 circle for the six games
Washington had played on the road
prior to today's engagement. Jimmy,
who also is playing a respectable
second base, squeezes into the lead

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June 20.
Youth challenger experience in
today's opening match play of the
Southern amateur golf tournament,
sparked by three boys still in their
teens and steadied by the defend
ing champion and two former title
holders.
Twenty-year- -old Bobby Dunkel-
berger, 1899 winner, found plenty of
trouble ahead. Qualified automat-
ically and apparently on top of his
game, he saw 16-year-old Gene
Dahlbender become the spectators
favorite with a 2-over-par 142 that
won medalist honors.
Dahlbender. Atlanta's Southern
prep champion. found his first big
tourney to his liking despite yester-
days rains. Dahlbender rallied after
a shaky start in the second qualify
ing round for a Y to go with his
earlier 10.
The Georgian, who holds a GA
round at Atlanta's East Lake law
out, never strayed from the fair
ways. He's playing Cullen Baker.
Nashville, who qualified with 152,
IN the first of today's two match
play rounds.
Dunkelberger drew the opening
match with youthful Dan Yates of
Atlanta, another of the II Geor-
gians making the championship di-
vision. Yates, a brother of the for
mer British amateur champion, tied
three others at 152 for the 10th
place.
Another of the challenging
youngsters was 16-year-old Richard
Smart, Arkansas champion, alone
IN third place with 145.
