Today's Sport Parade
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff COrrespondent)

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 4.-(UP)-Ol' Man Newsom's dead. They held a little service for him in Cincinnati yesterday, and by now his body's on the way to South Carolina, there to join the dust he had known and loved since he kicked it up, bare footed, as a kid.
 The boys who handle such things for the papers told how sad the service was, there in the little un- dertaking chapel, with only his fam- fly and a few friends to hear the good words said. They told of tears and sobS and hurt.
 I'm wondering if it really should of been sad.
 I'm wondering if OF Man New som. didn't come mighty close to leaving this earth in the perfect way.
 They can't be any denying that he left it happy. Only few hours before -only the tinieth part of a second before, as time is rcekoned where he is gone-he had seen his his boy, his Buck, his Bobo, stand out before 30,000 cheering persons and pitch his team to a world series I victory.
 And Bobo had been a large part of his life for a long time. Bobo, the swaggering, blustery, happy-go- lucky, big-of frame fellow who kept making the headlines and whose name kept coming in over the rado. When OF Man Newsom left Harts- vile, down in South Carolina, few days ago, to watch Bobo pitch for Dee -troit Chats what they call De- troit in HartSville) he knew he wasn't coming back. When he got his grip all packed, and called the station for the tenth time to see if the train was a-coming through on time, he spent an hour or two call- ing on his friends.
 He called to say goodbye. l Made the Rounds
 Up and down the little streets he walked, knocking on doors, ringing bells, and calling from the sidewalk to old pals rocking on the porch or laying in the swing.
 Goodbye" OF Man Newsom said. I'm going to Cincinnati to see Buck pitch"
 The friends all asked what was the meaning of the goodbye -shucks, Dee-troit was gonna win in four straight and O. Man Newson1 would be back before the week was out.
 But the goodbyes was said all the same.
 Bucks dad knew his heart was bad, mighty bad, and that at 68, with a weak heart, he couldn't take long trip without saying goodbye.
 He came on to Cincinnati. He saw his boy stand the Reds on their ears. He heard the thunder of voices, Yankee voices, too, cheer his Buck.
 Proud Father
 He was tired when he got back to his hotel, feeling sort of poly. Had the miseries here and there. But he had the strength to hug his

CROSBY READY
 l FOR TORRINGTON
Kickoff at z:I5 Tech Harding Tonight; WiIby
 at AnsOnia


 The three local high schools re- sume grid warfare this weekend against formidable opponents. Leav- enworth and wilby travel ot otheI parts for their games while Crosby shows its wares to friendly homo crowd.
 Leavenworth Tigers travel to Bridgeport tonight for their second straight night game of the early season to meet Warren Harding. The Presidents are favored in a comparison of records, but the Tech eleven will be playing under famil- jar stars and are ready to offer a strong battle for the contest.
 Coach Bill Schofield will give To- cal fans their first glimpse of the Crosby eleven in this city when hsi charges meet Torrington tomorrow at the Municipal Stadium in con- test scheduled to start at 2:15 o'clock. The well-drilled Crosby combine scored an impressive 6-0 win over Ike Kern's Norwalk squad in their first game of the current season, and are confident of vic- tory over the Big Red, who have one win mad one defeat on their record thus far.
 The Wilby's Green and White arr ray, who made the most impress sive start of all local schools in a seemingly effortless 38-0 blitzkrieg over Gilbert, are threatening to car- " that same devastating power to Ansonia tomorrow in a game that promises to be another early-season thriller.

Odds of 3-l on Armstrong Too Long, Experts

 New York, Oct. 4-(UP)-Battline the lop-sided 3-1 price, Fritzie Zivic of Pittsburgh tonight will try to Wrest the world welterweight box ing championship from Henry Arm strong at Madison Square Garden.
 For Fritzie, youngest of five fight ing brothers, this is an entirely new experience challenging for the title. But for 2T-year-old Armstrong, it's an old story. This will be hammer ing Henry's 20th defense of the 147- pound crown.
 Virtually all experts agreed that the S-1 price is far too long for this battle. They argue that Armstrong is no longer the great little warrior Of 1!S7-38 who won three titles within 10 m6nths. They point out that Fritzie is probably the best all- round fighte~ Armstrong ever met.
 Armstrong admits to 27 years, but he is probably older. He has been campaigning for Il years, and in his last New York appearance, when he knocked out lightweight cham pion Lew Jenkins in the sixth round, Armstrong was not very impressive. Armstrong would have gone out in the fifth heat of that bout, had not Jenkins got tired and quit punch ing.
 Worthy Foe
 Armstrong is meeting a dangerous foe. Zivic, at 26, is at his peak. This Spindle-shanked, muscular Croatian is fast, smart, tough, ad- versary who can punch hard enough to break @ jaw. He broke Lew Am

boy, to tell him how proud he was of him.
 Then he went to bed.
 Around 2:30 in the morning the doctor called big Buck. Said you'd better come over. Your dads had an attack.
 When Buck got there his dad was feeling a little better. Said 'Lissen son, I'm all right, you go on back to your room and get some rest"
 But he hugged Buck again before he let him go. Put his sllaky hand in Bucks big hand and as his son went out the door, waved soft lit tie goodbye.
 Just before dawn OF Man New som died. Easy like. Just drifted out.
 You just know that he went with music in his earS-the sweetest sort of music. The music of 30O00 per- sons paying tribute to his boy.

bers' Jaw in 1895. He punched hard enough to knock out 65 of his last 149 opponents. This is Fritzie's 150th fight. He is a seasoned performer.
 But the percentage is against him. He is fighting the dusky dynamo who lost but one bout in 59 con- tests during the past four years. He is matched with the great Los An geles negro, whose brute strength, persistent pummeling and rugged ness enabled him to carve @ niche among the immortals. But Zivic relishes an opponent like Armstrong. He welds brute strength, punch and rough tactics into a formidable at- tack. Hence, tonight's clash of strong ring ruffians should be a bat tie royal while it lasts.
 Armstrong will scale about 146 pounds, one under the welter limit. And Fritzie will register about half pound less.
 Promoter Mike Jacobs expects a near capacity crowd and gate of $50,0O0.
