Steve Pits Powerful
Body Sock Against
Rapier Thrust
Two 6-Rounders and Two
Fours Fill Out Program
At Boil Park Tonight

Steve Mamakos, one-time ugly
duckling of thriving prize-flght
stable and now its lone bread
winner, is 9-5 choice over Phil
Furr tonight in their 12-round duel
at Griffith Stadium.
No ordinary scuffle is this prize
bit of matchmaking, but bargain
battle-sort of a "one-scent" title
sale. You pay to see the District
welterweight crown defended by
Furr and the District middleweight
title defended by Mamakos.
Mamakos, rugged individual, is
the last of a lengthy string of
gladiators to wear the colors of
j. Stanislaus Twomey, the eminent
agent who never has been in a ring
except as a water boy and rubber.
Not so many months ago Stephano
was the handy man around j.
Stanislaus' establishment. He soaked
up an unbelievable flood of blows
without apparent ill-effect and was
a lively punching bag for the boys.
Survives Gymnasium Ordeal.
At that time j. Stanislaus held the
reins on Lou Gevinson, a promising
featherweight; Murray Kanner, a
$3.50 heavyweight, and a couple of
other lads, and Mamakos' finely
chiseled features were the milestone
on which the boys sharpened their
kayo punches. The others made
money and Steve got only lot of
experience, but for some reason he
stuck it out. Now he's the only one
left. The others retired while still
recognizable by old friends.
Mamakos, bearing up nobly under
his agents motto, We'll fight any
body" is dented badly in several
places, but still navigating. j.
Stanislaus has stood the grueling
pace even better. There isn't a
mark on him, except where he nicked
himself shaving this morning.
Stephano, however, shows signs of
slowing up, but his supporters do not
think the change is great enough to
affect his chances tonight.
Furr Is More Clever.
Furr is the better boxer and hits
harder, but not hard enough to
make strong impression on the
Greeks copper features. His only
hope of winning is to box Mamakos
and remain beyond range of his
wearing barrage of body blows. You
can bet your last dollar there will be
no knockout, although one or the
other may be cut up like barbecued
steer. If Furr. who trained at Nine.
Bey's camp in New Jersey, follows
the same tactics employed by Izzy
Jannazzo against Mamakos last
month he'll win as easily as jan
nazzo did and If he doesn't he'll lose,
say the experts.
The supporting card includes two
skies, Al Gilbert VS.. Johnny Roach
and Bill Banks VS.. Buddy Moore,
and two 4-rounders, Ray Lands VS..
Alex Cuipiano and Vince Bonovara
VS.. Tommy Ricco.

Can't Beat Ruth's Record
EorIy in June.

And Ruth's record of go for a
season never will be beaten in early
June. Mize. FoXx and Trosky have
been better in execution in April
and May of 1910 than was the Babe
in those months of 1927-but time
will tell whether they can keep it
up, and Mr.. Foxx devoutly believes
that the odds are all against them,
including himself.
Hank Greenberg, two years ago,
was leading Ruth at the head of the
stretch. He really had something.
Going into September he needed
only a dozen or so, where Ruth
needed II for go at the same point
In 1927. But Ruth got 'em, and
September licked Hankus-Septem-
ber, the month of Pickering shadows
that dance before the batter's eye
In the low sun, of wild rookie pitch
ers up from the minors, who never
give the hitter a chance to set him
self at the plate.
Therefore, I recommend that you

you can afford on George H. Ruth

Two changes viii be made in Cen.
trails lineup. Charley Kligman,
who probably will pitch should
Fisher go out, will replace Dick
Mosser in right field, while Jim
Mandes will move up two places in
the batting order and hit seventh
behind Sam Di Blasi In 10 times
at bat, Mosser has made but one hit
which is not in keeping with Gen.
trails standard. Recent stick power
explains Mandes' promotion in the
batting order.
Eastern Not to Use Erhardt.
Although Warren Erhardts four
victories as against one loss shows
him to be Eastern's best hurler,
Coach Chief Guyon probably will
start Kenny beavers or Kenny
Curles on the mound. Guyon holds
that it would be bad psychology to
start Erhardt, who was pounded for
six hits and five runs in two innings
In the first Central-Eastern game.
AS long as Erhardt is out Eastern's
attack will be considerably weakened
as Warren sports a .588 average.
Present plans do not call for Erhardt
playing the outfield as he has done
when not pitching in the past.

Foxx Hos No Illusions
Regarding Homer Mark.

Jim FoXX is a gentleman COM
pletely without illusion in this re-
spect. Having chased Ruth longer
than any other contemporary slug
ger, he is the foremost living ex-
pert on the home run record.
THE record is beatable, all right"
says the mauler from Margate, Md,
'but you have to have a perfect
combination of circumstances Some
body will get that combination some
day. but who will it be and when?
Picking one guy in one year is the
worst gamble I know of.
1--WE been in the game a long
time, hitting long ball. BY the
time 1 quit, III have hit more
home runs than anybody but Ruth.
I've had some good seasons when
got my share of the breaks, but in
those years I didn't deserve to pass
the Babes CO. because 1 wasn't
hitting the ball well enough. Other
years I've hit the ball clean and
often, but the breaks weren't
with me-
The year I hit 56 home runs
1927 really was getting hold of
it. That was one season I might
have expected to pass Ruth; and,
mind you, guy who expects to
improve on the Babe has got a
lot of gall. But was hot. I might
have done it.
St. Louis Park Screen
No Abb for Jimmy.
well, without abiding, I must
have ratified half a dozen hits off
the screen in st. Louis in 1882.
There was no screen in St. Louis the
year the Babe made so. Right there
you have the difference between
the record and just another season.
But don't get me wrong" says
Mr.. FoXx, firmly. IF it hadn't been
the screen in st. Louis it might
have been something else. That's a
great record of Ruth's. The man
who beats it should do it the hard
way. The Babe is entitled to that
much protection for a record that
sort of symbolizes what he meant to
baseball. I hope like HI I'll break
it some day, but I know I'll feel a
little sorry when I do. That record
means something"
OF course. Jimmy's chance grows
Simmer every year, while sluggers
with more time ahead of them
Mize. for example, or Trosky, or
Williams-can contemplate the fu-
ture with some confidence.
Foxx, as he says, has been long
time in the game. At the moment
his lifetime total is ATS home runs.
Gehrig, the runner-up to Ruth, re-
tired with a total of 494, which
Foxx is very likely to excel this
season, though he broke into the
major leagues four years later than
Gehrig. Ruths lifetime total of
TIA, of course, will take lot of
beating.
