GREEK CRABS
 175 LB. GROWN
ChristOforidis Beats Bet tina for N. B. A.
 Championship

Cleveland, Jan. 14 (UP) - Anton Christoforidis, rugged Greek boxer was recognized as light heavyweight champion today in states under the Jurisdiction of the National Boxing Association but was scheduled for a defense of his newly won crown within 60 days against Gus Lesnevich of New Jersey.
 Christoforidis put on 8 closing rush last night to earn a 15-round decision over Melio Bettina, Italian southpaw from Beacon N. Y, former champion who lost the title to Billy Conn of Pittsburgh. The decision was the unanimous verdict uf Judges Jim Parker and Dibby Will Hams and Referee Joe Sedley.
 Slow Starter
 Christoforidis started slowly and had difnculty in solving the Italians unorthodox fighting stance. Bettina took three of the first four rounds on the United Press score sheet and then the Greek found the range with hooking rights to the head. He caught his opponent with a beauti- full left to the left eye that started 1t bleeding in the seventh.
 The crowd of 8,449 which paid 0,462 was with Christoforidis when he began driving right hooks to the head and pounding inside with both hands to the body. He took the next four rounds and seemed to grow stronger.
 Bettina rallied briefly and the fight appeared even going into the 18th. when the Greek fighter found Bettina's eye again with a looping right. The blood began to How free- ly and Bettina looked in bad shape. He came back to take the 14th but Christoforidis went all out with a savage body attack in the last round and the Italian appeared spent and weary as the final bell tolled.
 Christoforidis weighed 188 1-2, Bettina, 174.

Bantam Rivals May Be Re- matched for Return
 Title GO

Philadelphia, Jan. 14-(UP)-Pro- moter Herman Taylor today was considering return match between world featherweight champion Lou Salica and challenger Tommy Forte after Salica's exceptionally close victory over Forte last night.
 Salica, beetle-browed Brooklyn, N. Y, battler needed all the skill and courage that brought him titles in the golden gloves, the national anna teur tourney, oly1npicS and profeS- sional fighting to outpoint challen- ger Forte over the 15-round dis tance last night.
 His left eye closed from the end of the fifth round to the final bell Salica showed the courage of 8 true champion to win. He took every thing Forte offered and still had enough left to hand out the best blows of the evening in the last two rounds.
 Both fighters weighed 1171a pounds but Forte entered the ring a 1-2 underdog.

Its bark has felt the whack of hunderds of his brasSie shots, and for IS years it stymied him. Many and varied were his descriptions of this tree in the locker room, and the San Gabriel members felt that he would understand and chuckle if he knew that the placque were being placed there.
 One of the several feature four somes which will play in the tour nament is composed of Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Patty Berg and Mildred (Babe) Didrikson. At first the tournament committee considered having Crosby and Hope play the girls, but remembering that the spectators deserved a full run for there admission fee of $1, the off, cials decided to separate Patty and Babe so that the match would stand a better chance of going the full distance.
 Another foursome will see Johnny Weismuller, Eric Pedley, Jimmy Mo- Larnin and Ford Palmer matching strokes. This is 8 pretty fair sports fourSome, pitting as 1t does the worlds greatest swimmer, one oi the worlds gretaest polo players, the former welterweight champion, and one of U. s. C.'s greatest ends against one another.
 The match I plan to follow, how ever, is the one that involves Frank Craven, Adolph Menjou, Guy Kib- bee and Grantland Rice. Craven k the worlds best approach shot player. and that goes for all the l tournament stars. MT. Menjou is the master of the gimme" putt MT. Kibbee hits the straightest and shortest tee shot of any living golfer, and MT. Rice is the only mar who has ever written 1000 900 words advising against the lifting of the head On shot, and who still does
 Another foursome of men whe laughed and played with Condor will include Tyrus Raymond Cobb Coaches Howard Jones and Bil Spaulding, and Ellsworth Vines. Quite man, Frank Condon. He gave so much, to so many, for SC little.

DODSON TAKES
 OAKLAND OPEN
Playoff Champ Defeats
 Hogan and Harrison;
 Wins Sl,2OO

kland. Calf, Jan. 14.-GUP)- The playoff specialist of the profes- siounl golfing circuit smooth swinging Leonard Dodson of Kansas City-pocketed $1200 first place money in the $5,000 Oakland open tournament and tackled another vic tory onto his list of "extra-curricu- lar' triumphs today.
 A steady drizzle of rain with its accompanying municipalities proved no obstacle to Dodson yesterday as he covered the Sequoyah Country club course in Il strokes to defeat Ben Hogan of White Plains, N. r., and Dutch Harrison. of Little Rock, Ark, hl their 18-hole playotf.
 Hogan finished with "A to col- lect second money of $750 and Har- rison took the show purse ot $550 with 76.
 Extra Hole Champ.
 Dodson never has lost tourna- ment playoff in his career. He won the Hollywood open from Horton Smith in 1897, the St. Petersburg open from Harry Cooper in 1886, the Philadelphia open from Bruce Collar in 1887, and before that, the Iowa and Oklahoma state tourna- ments, all in playoffs. He took this one in stride, turning in a 35 on the first nine and 36, one above par in the final nine-hole round.
 Hogan blew up on the 17th and this cost him the match. The chunky little New Yorker, who shot a 34 to lead his two opponents at the end of the ninth, three-putted on the 17th--first missing ten- footer, grazing the cup on his next shot and then missing again from two feet away.
 The rain wrecked the chances of Harrison, who had led the tourna- ment field for two days before he Hogan and Dodson ended in a three-way tie Sunday with 276's at the end of 72 holes.
 Hogan out-drove Dodson ano Harrison but was hampered by the wet greens. On the 11th, he shot into a rain puddle and it cost him a penalty stroke to go ashore.

Hollywood, Jan. 14-(UP)-Frank Condon, IA handicap player at golf, but a scratch man in the game of life and of writing, is gone.
 But the memory of him is as green as the fairways, and on Sun day afternoon many of his friends will pay him tribute at the club he loved SO much, the San Gabriel, deep in the valley of that name.
 Writers, boxers, coaches, actors, singers, playwrights, dancers and directors. They all will gather to play in the Frank Condon memorial tournament. From all over the country-from almost every club at which Frank ever dug divot, missed putt or dubbed tee shot his companions of other days have sent in their entry fee of three dol- lars. While they won't be here to play they wanted to have a part in a memorial to man who brought so much happiness to golfers with his humorous short stories dealing with the game.
 Well Known
 Here in Hollywood, where Frank lived for 15 years, and where his shock of gray hair, cowbay gloves, outrageous backswing, unique vo- cabulary, and matchless wit, were known wherever men suffer in traps and in the rough, his friends have joined to make the Condon tournament one that he would have loved to write about.
 First prize in the tournament will be bronze plaque, but it won't go to the winner. It is to be sunk in a giant tree that guards the ap- proach to the ninth green at San Gabriel. This is the tree that cost Frank thousand bogies, because it catches shots that are sliced and Frank had slice that followed the path of the great circle route.

Henry Took Long Rest After Loss
 Of His Last Title
BY DON SANDERS (NEA Service Staff Correspondent

(NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 Freshened by long rest, Henry Armstrong comes back to try to win back the welterweight crown he lost to Fritzie Zivic, the Pittsburgher, in their whirlwind set-to last October 4.
 They are scheduled to meet in New York's Madison Square Garden on Jan. 1T.
 Hammering Henry might turn the trick.
 Although he has had an arduous career since he won his first title the featherweight-back in 1897, he's still dynamo in the ring. He's 8 crafty boxer-one well able to take fullest advantage of Zivic if the champion has one of his of nights.
 For the last of the five fighting zivics has had an up and down ca reer. Also a classy boxer who likes it best when the going is fast and rough, he frequently has trouble get- ting started. He was at his peak when he beat Armstrong, and will have to be there again if he is to re- tain the title.
 ARMSTRONG ENDED
 FIGHT ON HIS FACE
 The night Hammering Henry lost the last of his three titles, he fought the final rounds almost blinded by blood from wounds about hi svir- tually closed eyes. He fought until he could fight no more ended the bout fiat on hi sface.
 Armstrong defended his 147-pound title seven times last year, just missed winning the middleweight crown from Ceferino Garcia, adn stopped Lew Jenkins in handicap affair. He was busy little man.
 Now he has had 8 much-needed rest, lolling around at Hot Springs, Ark, and he's determined to regain the title. The trouble with his eyes may have been cleared up by an operation for the removal of scar tissue.
 zivic has had a topsy-turvy ca reer. Not long before he whipped Armstrong, he dropped decision to Johnny Barbara, who probably wouldn't last more than few rounds with Henry.
 ] Since winning the crown, he de- feated Al Bunny Davis in 8 Garden ! f1asco. Davis, enraged because he was obviously losing, hit Fritzie low no less than seventimes and was disqualified and suspended. The fight was stopped in the second, and although Zivic was the master, il wasn't a proper test.
 That was in November. A month later Flattening Fritzie took on the lightweight champion, Lew Jenkins and was not impressive as he gained a draw with the smaller man.
 ZIVIC ONCE BROKE
 LOU AMBERS' JAW
 Ferdinand Zivic first attracted at- tention of the fight world outside Pittsburgh when he broke Lou Am bers' jaw in 1885. Six months later Ambers was lightweight champion zivic was in the cleaning and press. ing business.
 He tried several other ventures then was out of circulation with siege of pneumonia .. was saved b! transmission from his brother Jack
