YOUNG NEGRO IS CLASS OF 1S4O
 GOLDEN CLOVES
Ray Robinson of New York Most Impressive Before
 l8,3S8 Fans
BY JACK CUDDY

New York, March 19-CUp)-Rav Robinson, stream-lined New York Negro with rhythm in his toes and dynamite in his fists, stood out as the claSsiest amateur boxer today by virtue of his performance last night in the National Golden Gloves championship in damned Madison Square Garden.
 Robinson, a professional tap dancer and last years 126-pound tourney king, rose form the canvas before 18,388 laundering fans and smashed his way to the 135-pound title, reg istering an impressive technical knockout over Tony Ancona, a fast, worker from Detroit.
 Robinson and Ancona battled it out for the 126-pound laurels last year. But this time the game, brown haired Detroiter suffered the worst beating of his career, being floored four times before the referee mercifully intervened after 70 sec. onds of the third round.
 Thirty-two leather tossers, the cream of the Simon-pure crop, cofn- peted in eight title scraps and eight alternate brawls last night. These 32 survivors of more than 37,000 original entrants-from the Atlantic to the Rocky Mountains and from Texas to Maine. It was Robinson who sent the fans home murlnuring in delighted admira- tion and started professional fight managers asking, Who's got him?"
 Robinson indicated that he has what it takes to become a profess portioned body, binding speed, rare sional champion-beautifully pro- boxing skill, eplosives in both hands, stamina, ruggedness and the heart to come off the canvas fighting.
 The 19-year-old, brown-skinned lad registered so impressively his seventh knockout of this years eight tourney battles, that he almost made the fans forget that the east fought the west to team tie last night, with each squad reg istering victories in eight bouts. The east almost registered its first vic- tory ovr the west since 1884. When the last bout went on-the heavy weight title-the east was leading eight to seven. But Cornlius Young, a tow-headed steel worker from Chicago, was given an unpopular decision over Ted Wint, Negro chiropracter student of New York, for the final tie.
 Thus the east-west tournament score now stands at seven wins for tn west, three for the ast, and three ties.
 In addition to Robinson's knock. out, on other kayo was registered. That came at 2:59 of the second round in the heavyweight alternat bout when Cyclone" Williams, wild swinging Negro southpaw from Buff falo, N. Y, banged Ernest Nordman of Omaha, Neb., to the floor twice and left him laying there. Nordman is a newspaper reporter.

Harris Hopes For But Comedies Loss OF Pennd
New Haven Eagles, Hershey Bears
 Start Playoffs

New Haven, March 19-The play of battles of the New Haven Eagles starts tonight down at Hershey, Pa., against the Bears, and resumes again here at the Arena on Thurs day night. Winners over Cleveland here Sunday night by a 4-3 count, thus knocking the defending champions out of the play-offs, New Haven is regarded a favorite in the championship games.
 In regular league play, New Ha- ven and Hershey broke even, each winning three times. Five out of the six games were decided by one goal margins. The Battle Birds, at full strength for the play-offs will meet Hershey on Sunday night, in the event these teams break even in Tuesday and Thursdays games. The extra game of Sunday night, if necessary, will be played here.
 Individual Scoring
 Here's how the New Haven Eagles who face Hershey at the Arena Thursday night in their second play-of game fared in the scoring department for the entire season.

quite few home runs. No, wasn't as good a hitter as ole, and l couldn't field quite as well as he does, but then he has had more ex- perience."
 Up until the time she met Joe, late in the 1887 season, she had never seen a major league baseball game. But it didn't take her long to correct that mistake. She met Joe on August and on August was in the stands to see him break up a game with an extra base hit. Since that time she hasn't missed a Yam kee game when she was in New York, and she doesn't intend to miss any more.
 "It's terrible suffering" she said "but its fun. And, too, I've got to get in training for my first world series this fall. That will make me worry and fret"
 This remark made it obvious that Mrs. Dimaggio hadn't seen the Tanks in a world series. They don give their packers much to worr! about. Just four straight and in { hurry.
 For the life of us we can't fee sorry for Mrs. Dimag and her suf- fering. If she is tortured when Joe comes to bat, just think of what ths wives of those .230 hitters gc | through.

BUFFALO HALLS
 JACK DONOVAN,
 YOUNG WELTER
No Defeats, One Draw on 2=Year Record of
 Youth, 20
BY EDWARD N. FEINEN Unitd Press Staff Correspondent

Buffalo, N. Y, March 19-(UP)- A clever welterweight who has yet to meet defeat in professional bout has revived boxing in this Western New York City which dur ing the '2os boasted some of the leading fighters of that era.
 Dyed-in-the-wool fans who once cheered Rocky Kansas, Jimmy Slat- tery, Jimmy Goodrich and other champions and near champions in the battle-scarred ring at the Broadway Auditorium and who lost interest when local talent dropped far below par during the past dec- ade, again are Hooking to see this young welterweight continue his progress to fistic fame.
 The fighter is Jackie Donovan, lanky youth who may grow into a light-heavyweight when he ma- lures. Donovan appears to have everything a boxer needs to reach the heights. He has speed, rapier left, a good right and the finesSe of a Billy Conn.
 tOugnt Onc DraW
 Donovan has been fighting pro- fessionally for two years, and his only setback during this period-if it might be called a setback-was a six-round draw with Harris Blake, fast-punching young Negro who now ranks as the best lightweight in and around Buffalo. Listed among his victims are Irish Eddie Dolan, Francesca Montanari Tommy Bland, once welterweight champion of Canada, and Frankie Wallace, veteran from Cleveland.
 Donovan's amateur career was all-conquering as he swept through the Niagara District featherweight ranks and went on to win the Col den Gloves title in New York.
 Staunchiest defender of Donovan's prowess is Billy Michaels, his man. ager and trainer. Michaels, former boxing coach at the U. s. Naval Academy, works unceasingly to instill all his knowledge in his young pro- tege. He has brought Donovan along slowly and saved him from the battle scars many youthful boxing aspirants receive.
 Stands 5 Feet II
 Donovan is 20 years old and 5 feet Il inches tall. Obviously still in the growing stage, it is problemat- ical at just what height he will ma ture. Some of his fans believe Donovan one day will challenge for the heavyweight championship o1 the world, but a more likely bet ii that he will reach his best fighting days in the 175-pound class.
 His height and reach give hin an advantage over most welter- weight boxers. Primarily a boxer Donovan can hit hard when needed as evidenced by his knockout o1 Tommp Bland, a tough veteran Bland was unconscious for five minutes.
 Predicting a champion in any sport is plain guesswork, but Buff falo boxing fans are convinced that Donovan lis on his way to the top" The boy needs experience and Billy Michaels is seeing that he gets it, not the pushover type of bout, but topnotch competition. To this end, Michaels lists as prospective oppon- ents of the near future Sammy Luftspring, champion of Canada, and Henry Armstrong.

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

St. Petersburg, Fla, March 19 - (U.P.) = The League of Women baseball sufferers, composed of wives of major league players, has come up with one of the most promising rockies in years in the person of Dorothy Dinaggio, bride of the Yankee Slugger center f1elderS.
 Although making her first trip to spring training camp, Mrs. Di- maggie has shown enough talent as sufferer when the Yankees are playing to earn her high praise from such veteran squirmers, nail chewers, lip biters, and permanent wave disarrangerS as Vi Dickey, 1zzy Rolfe, June Gomez and Pauline Rufnng.
 Mrs. Dimaggio was put to her first real test at the All-Star game be. tween the American and National Leagues here last Sunday and her behavior when her husband was at bat or chasing 8 fly, and the Amer ican League was behind, stamped her as ready to step into the big league of sufferers in her first year up. This correspondent saw Mrs. Dimaggio before she went to the all-star game and after she had re- turned. On her departure for the park she could have passed muster before the most exacting coutourier in the world, and her makeup and coiffuer were impeccable.
 When I saw her again, after she had been through the torment of seeing husband Joe fail to get hit, and the Nationals lick the Amer jeans, she could have used the con- plete $5 treatment in beauty par Tor. And this mind you, despite the fact that naturally she is just about the prettiest wife in baseball. Two hours in the torture chamber reserved for the players wives had all but made a wreck of her.
 Nerve Strain
 She didn't deny that her exper- fence had been narrowing, either.
 "It's terrible, she said wearily, "that sitting there and watching your man at the plate. You hope and you pray he'll get hit. You find yourself hating the umpire when he calls a strike, and the pitcher for throwing it. I don't think I could stand it if Joe weren't a good hitter and I didn't have the comfort of knowing he usually gets his share of hits and runs"
 Mrs. Dimaggio's ability to suffer SO intently probably lies in the fact that she was once a baseball player herself, and thus knows the problems and hardships of hitting high fast ones, curves that break like pane of glass, and tantalizing changes of pace and the such. Yes, Mrs. Dimaggio was better than fair first baseman in her day. She never quite made the majors but there was time not so many years ago when she was the best girl soft baller in Duluth, Minnesota.
 T was a pretty good hitter" she admitted under questioning. T was always around 300 and got
