Miami Angling Event
May Draw 225,00O;
Awards Many
Common Man. Has His
Day os Fancy Tackle
Plays Minor Port
BY the Associated Press.

by Lfc hSSUCldtcu 1lcoss
MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 1.-THE plain
man makes his bid for sporting
fame and for more material prizes
when the $4,000 Metropolitan
Miami Fishing Tournament opens
at sunrise tomorrow.
This fellow can't play golf or ten
mis- for sour apples-he's usually on
the sidelines watching in awe when
the luminaries of these sports per-
form.
He won't shine particularly, either,
during the brilliant marine pageant
that opens the tournament. The
great white queens of Miami'S win
ter pleasure feet will be on parade
then and the plain man most likely
will be in a dinky rowboat or
small cruiser.
But when the lines go splashing
into the blue waters of BiScayne
Bay and the Atlantic, hell be on
virtually an even footing with any
of the wealthy sportsmen competing
and the chances are he'll hold his
own against all corners.
Expensive equipment may help
catch fish in some instances, but
in general it's pretty well estab-
lished that all the money in the
world can't guarantee fishing luck.
That and superiority in numbers
are the two factors that help the
plain folks win their full share of
prizes in this mammoth event, held
annually here for the last six years.
The array of awards, including
almost everything from pretty lit
tie cups to highly utilitarian auto
mobile, helped swell the total par
ticipation to 5000 anglers last
wear. Sponsors claim it was the
biggest single sports event. from the
standpoint of the number compet-
ing, in the United States and they're
predicting a tremendous increase
for this tournament. Some say the
figure may run as high as 225 900.
Trophies and prizes covering al
most every conceivable type of angl-
ing endeavor will be given out after
the 99-day competition ends.
The more important of these
trophies are listed as the Duke of
Windsor Cup for the largest eligible
sailfish pulled out of Cat Cay or
Bimini, a new car for a combina-
ton of angling achievements in the
Florida waters of the tournament,
the $4,000 Rod and Reel Club Per-
manent Trophy for the largest sail
fish and the Memorial Trophy for
distinguished angling performance
in another division.

Win Over Third Dusek
Is Steinborn's Goal
On Mat Thursday

1t will be Ernie Dusek, the tough
est OF the four riot squad" brothers,
against Milo Steinborn. the Mem
phis strong man, Thursday night at
Turner's Arena in the headline
wrestling bout.
The match will mark the first
meeting between Ernie and Stein
born and comes under the head Of
"naturals." Steinborn. undefeated
in II matches, with only a draw to
mar a perfect record, already has
disposed Of two Duseks-Joe and
Emil.
Dusek disposed of Joe Cox, his
ancient rival, last Thursday in 80
minutes, while on the same card
Steinborn was given the match via
the disqualification route in his
battle with the Green Hornet,
newcomer.
Ernie is out to crack the unbeaten
streak of Steinborn, who has won
nine of his matches with his deadly
bear hug, which Promoter Joe
Turner claims is as powerful, if not
more so, than Nanjo Singh's cobra
clutch.

Associated Press Sports Writer.

LEXINGTON, KY, Jan. IL
Nearly every race horse gets his
name in the record books for
benefit of horsemen, but only
few of the great have their names
inscribed in marble or bronze for
posterlty.
An outstanding contribution to
racing doesn't guarantee a last
ing memorial for a horse. Such
tribute calls for a sentimental
owner with money to spare.
Memorials are expensive but they
aren't reserved for the swiftest
runners.
In the half dozen horse ceme-
teries and memorial plots in the
Blue Grass, the stone tributes
bear the names of as many sireS
and dams of great sons and
daughters as they do the names
of champions.

came up from far, far back today
to win the $4,000 added Hialeah
Stakes by a head over Circle M.

zacatine, apparently out to show
the racing world what he thought
of the $4,000 claiming tag he wore
last fall, staged a stretch drive
that had the rail birds gasping and
captured the seasons first important
test for 3-year-olds.
Zacatine Holds On.
AS the early leader, Bull Brier,
weakened going for home, tow
headed Herb Lindberg moved zaca-
tine into a contending position.
Then for the last 2 furlongs zaca-
tine and Battle Colors fought it
out with Zacatine winning in spite
of Battle Colors' strong finish.
Well liked in the betting, Zaca-
tine was a $680-for-$2 shot in WIN
ming his sixth straight and most
important victory. Not considered
worthy of being nominated for the
$4,000 Flamingo Stakes, Zacatlne
stepped the 6 furlongs in Ill 3-5
and collared the S4,830 winners

A crowd of 9,537, some wearing
topcoats against chilling wind,
watched Bull Brier set the early
pace until Battle Colors took what
appeared to be a safe lead.
Form Players Take Beating.
Then with Zacatine and Battle
Colors matching stride for stride
in the stretch, Samuel Tufano's
Market Wise closed fast to take
third from the firing Bull Brier.
Except for Zacatine, the form
sheet players took bad beating all
day. Until the feature, not single
favorite had managed to win and

Boxing Talent Scarce,
Turner Again Offers
'AN-Star' Show
SponeIer and Mcdowell,
In Repeat Bout. Head
Tomorrow's Cord

Promoter Joe Turner's presenta-
ton of a second "all-star" card
within a week reveals with startling
frankneSs exactly how scarce worth
while ring talent is at this time and
is a doleful warning that Washing
ton ring fans may have to Subsist
on lean diet Of CLUB" fights this
winter.
Turner SHES at the idea of one
"all-star" program after another.
He prefers to hitch his wagon to
one star for the long pull-some-
body like Lou Gevinson, joey Archi-
bald, Phil Furr when he was in his
hey-day, or Steve Mamakos. It's
much easier and usually more
profitable. But when stars are scarce,
promoters, paradoxically, must re-
welt to "all-Star" cards.
The promoter had hopes of bring
ing out Billy Banks as full-f1edged
headliner this winter, nursing him
through the indoor season with a
series of tough tune-up fights and
sending him after serious sugar next
summer. But Banks Topped against
Archibald, who is setting no worlds
at1re, and must begin all over again.
The mere mention of an "all-star"
card is enough to arouse the aver
age fight fans suspicion. He knows
when one name can't be featured
the whole lot of them can't be overly
impressive. That is true but 1t
doesn't mean the action will be dull.
Club" fighters frequently give the
fans the most for their money and
any customer would prefer an hon.
est-to-goodness grudge battle be-
tween a couple of palookas than a
15-minute bag-punching exhibition
by John L. Sullivan.
Matching up an all-star card is
no easy matter. Dropping the
wrong chap in the wrong spot can
be fatal, as it was in two instances
last week. On the other hand, pair
ing a couple of evenly matched
youngsters more than offsets mis-
take, as was true similarly in the
Joey Spangler-Bill Mcdowell match.
They headline tomorrow nights
show because of their terrific
struggle and the repeat perform
ance should be as good.
Also back is Billy Banks, whom
Turner is trying to build into a
top flight attraction, who will have
it out with Victor Corchado. 1t is
hoped sincerely that Corchado will
not stick out his chin deliberately
as landing place for Banks best
punches when the argument gets
too close.
Gene Buffalo tangles with Manuel
Villa, one of four fighting brothers,

Roy Dunn, who was knocked out

in 4-rounder, and the initial skir-
mish, over a similar distance, will
be manufactured by Kid Alexandria
and Vince Truminello. L. F. A.
