hometown boy who made good, won
the Indianapolis 500 mile motor
marathon for a second consecutive
time today for the first double
victory in history, but rain when
fell on the great track during the
last 125 miles spoiled his chance
for a record run.
The rains came at the 375-mile

removed until Shaw flashed over
the line a winner for third time, lie

Tagawa, after II years, was
brought to trial and convicted OF
second degree murder. Defense at
torneys sought to show that Nakada
and othtr prosecution witnesses
had conveniently kept quiet during
this II year period, but when va
matodas' supremacy as gambling
boss" of Little Tokyo was challeng-
ed, turned up TagaWa as a slayer.
Thus the defense sought to dis
credit his testimony on the grounds
that he was an agent of Yamatoda.

jenkins Is Figuring
On Big Coin in Go
With Armstrong
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, May 11.-Lew Jen-
kins, newly-crowned lightweight
boxing champion (New York ver-
sion), has his eyes on Henry Arm
strong, the welterweight king, and
Promoter Mike Jacobs is going to
do his best to please the lanky
Sweetwater, Tex, slugger right
soon. F.,
With six months in which to de-
fend the crown he lifted from Lou
Ambers in the third round last
night at Madison Square Garden,
Jenkins is going after big money
and to the ex-blacksmith and his
manager, Hymie Caplin, that means
Armstrong.
They figure to draw close to $780,
600 in an outdoor fight this summer.
Caplin was clamoring for the
bout almost before the referee raised
Lewis hand in token of victory
last night.
Jacobs said he would like to stage
the bout around July II but thatl
probably be ironed out tomorrow.
The only thing that keeps Jenkins
from Nationwide recognition as
king of the 135-pounders is that
the National Boxing Association
recognizes Sammy Angott, who
whipped Dayey Day on Derby eve
after the N. B. A. had dethroned
Ambers for failure to meet Day.

~ the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, May IL. - The
Senators from Kentucky put it over
for the colonel today.
Col. E. R. Bradley, owner of
Bimelech, winner of the Preakness,
was not well enough to whoop it up
while his baby" was out there
winging away for the finish.
But, standing down in the win
ner's circle were too good votes for
Bimelech-Senators A. B. (Happy)
Chandler and Alben w. Barkley, the
Democratic leader of the United
States Senate.
These two deep-eyed sons of the
Blue Grass practically reached out
on the track and pulled Bimelech
home. Senator Chambers good
right arm was circling in the direc-
ton of the wire like wind mill in
o hurricane.
They needn't have worried about
the outcome. for Jockey Freddie
Smith said Bimmy simply got out
front and stayed there.
II never was afraid that we would
be caught after the first quarter of
q mile," the black-haired little mite
said.
Jackey George Woolf, aboard
Pictor, summed it up with these
words:
Il never saw Bimelech after the
first turn"

17-Hit Attack Booking

By the Associated Press.

ASS VIC AocOSldtcu IICSS
ST. LOUIS, May 1.-THE Cincin-
natl Reds are back where they left
OF last year-in first place in the
National League.
After trailing Brooklyn since the
start of the season, the champion
Reds spurted out in front today by
defeating the st. Louis Cardinals
with devastating 17-hit attack,
IL to S, while the Dodgers were
losing at home to Philadelphia
to 4.
Thompson Hurls, Hits Well.
Junior Thompson had an easy
time turning in his fourth victory
against one defeat, holding the Car
dinals to eight hits and helping his
own cause by driving in three runs.
He pitched Cincinnati's 11th COM
plete game. In contrast, the Car
dinals, preseason favorites, have
had Ginning performances by only
two pitchers. ;.
For two innings, the Reds and the
Cards put on q ball game. Success
sive singles by Ernie lombard,
Harry Craft and Mike Mccormick
produced a Redleg run in the second
inning, but Johnny Mize immedi-
ately tied the score with his sixth
home run of the year.
Then came the deluge-a 6-run
storm by the Reds in the third in
ming. Singles by Ival Goodman,
lombard and Craft and an error
on Eddie Joost's grounder counted
one run and left the bases loaded
for Thompson. The pitcher singled,
driving in two runs and finishing
Max Lanier. who started on the
mound for the Cardinals.
Werber Cracks Homer.
Bob Bowman replaced Lanier and
Bill Werber jolted him with a home
run, scoring Joost and Thompson.
-Four Of the Reds-Werber, Lom-
bardi, Craft and Mike Mccormick
each came through with three hits
to fatten their averages.
