Ambers at Boxing Crossroads
In 70-Povnd 7ussIe Tonight
With Favored jenkins

Lou passed out the cigars last year,
not even the laughing boys bosom
pals think there's much hope for
him this time.
Jenkins, whose only setback since
amputating Ambers' crown came at
the hands of Henry Armstrong, is
a 1-to-3 favorite to win and even
money to do it the hard way-by
putting the crusher on Lou some
where along the route.
This corner goes along with that
idea, picking Jenkins inside of five
rounds for no other reason than
that Ambers, in his training chores,
no longer was the little man who
wasn't there.
Ambers Heavier This Time.
Chief difference between this one
and their last affair is that Ambers'
weight worries just aren't. He had
to make the 135-pound limit last
time and had so much trouble doc
tor had to look him over the day
before the fight. This time, with his
eye on the welterweight crown
he's a big boy now-Luigi can
make up to l40 and probably will.
Jenkins, as usual, will be about

Bloodworth, Buddy Myer or Pofahl
at second, and George Archie, sight
unseen, at first base. Archie will
have to report minus a leg to miss
opening the season.
The bosses, Griffith and Harris,
are talking of starting Al Evans
behind the plate, but don't bet that
Rick Ferrell won't be doing the
catching on opening day He always
has done it.
Few Rocks Have Chance.
There is better than an even
chance that Griffith will make a
trade for some sort Of a pitcher
before season opens. He may not be
a good hurler, but, at least, he will
have been around long enough to
know the general direction Of the
plate.
A move of this kind is almost i'm
perative because the only pitchers
down here are siX-Dutch Leonard,
Sid Hudson, Ken Chase, Walter
Masterson, Danny MacFayden and
Alexandra Carrasquel-and there is
some doubt about a couple of these.
At least nine pitchers are necessary
and only a few of the rockies sug-
gest themselves as serious candi-
dates. One is Arnold Anderson. a
big right-harder who beat the
Browns once last year Another is
James (Dopey) Dean, although the
management does not fancy his
chances.
The Mats could spare an outfelder,
say Johnny Welaj or Sammy West,
or they could struggle along without
couple of their second base candi-
dates. What they would get in trade
for any of these individuals hardly
would mean a pennant, but beggars
can't be chooSerS, as the saying goes.
Anyway, after a week or so OF
film -f1amming, spring training is
scheduled to start tomorrow in the
Mats training camp.

Will Need Much
Luck 10 Score,
Howard Feels
ChoIIedon Will Race
For S100, 900 With No
Abb, Says Bronn
BY ROBERT MYERS,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 28.-Sports-
man Charles S. Howard gazed
anxiously at the skies and then over
the list of eligibles for the 100000
Santa Anita Handicap tomorrow
ans said:
Il hope the Howard luck holds
out
Howard, who has captured this
worlds richest horse race two years
in succession, goes after it for the
third time with the heavily backed
Midland, and while the 4-year- old
bay horse has drawn the plaudits
OF the experts, his owner was none
too sure of his chances.
While I like my horse and he has
done most everything we've asked
OF him, I know he has some good
horses to beat. I am far from over
confident" Howard concluded.
The tall, pleasant-voiced San Fran
cisco auto magnate had reason to
examine the sky Showers forecast
for today, clearing off tomorrow, and
a muddy or slow track would favor
his Midland
Hopes for "Off" Track.
Last year Howard wanted a dry,
fast surface for his venerable Sea-
biscuit, and he got it. A fast track
won't kill his hopes this time. but
he'd rather have the strip off"
That is where most of the racing
luck of Charley Howard" is con-
cerned. His real friendship with
Lady Luck is based on the fact that
he has Tom Smith, trainer who
can pick and handle horses.
AS entries closed today, Maryland's s
William L. Brann also had a word
for the admirers of his Challedon.
Ignoring opinions that his 1910 stake
champion might be short in train
ing, Brann declared:
i want to state definitely and
have it thoroughly understood that
Challedon will have no alibis in this
race. All of these horses have to
run over the same track, wet or dry.
and our horse will be in there giving
the best that's in him"
Last minute touches were made at
the huge plant today for tomorrow
expected turnout of IS 900 or more.
Mutuel Record Unlikely.
Whether the throng will equal last
years record-breaking crowd of
$4,000, which bet S382,702 on the
Santa Anita Handicap and 81 ,707.151
on the eight races of the day, seemed
doubtful.
Expected starters, no matter what
condition the track proves to be, in
clude Midland, Challedon, Can't
Wait, Sweepida, Viscounty. Hyster-
ical, Fairy Chant, Beautiful II, Bay
View, Royal Crusader, Gen1 Man
ager and Welcome Pass.
Prior to the deadline for entries,
Woof Woof, Wedding Call, Rough
Pass and Bolingroke were listed as
doubtful, depending upon track con-
ditions.

MIAMI, Fla, Feb. 28-Bimelech

morrow it won't keep the Bradley
