JENKINS IS NOW 3-2 PICK TO K.O.
 AMBERS AGAIN
Texas Puncher 1895 Fac vOrite to Win From Ex-
 champion Tomorrow
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff COrrespOndent)

\OuAGCU NAOoS 0taA NOAACopUAAuCtitJ
 New York, FeHuary 27-(UP)- Lew Jenkins, hardest-hitting light weight champion since the hey-dey of Benny Leonard, tests his Texas dynamite again tomorrow night on rugged Lou Ambers, who-not so long ago = was considered the toughest man in any division.
 The betting is 1895 that Scrawny Jenkins will register his second victory over Alnbers, and 3-2 that he knocks him out again.
 Ambers was rated an iron man" until last May 10 when Jenkins blasted him to the floor four times and took his 135-pound crown on a technical knockout in the third round.
 That was the temperamental Texans greatest ring achievement not merely because he won the title, but because he tagged Ambers with his first kayo in 10 years of fighting. Ambers had weathered the blows of 8 flock of knockout artists, such as Jimmy McLanin, Tony Canzoneri and Pedro Mon- taneZ. He had suffered 30 full rounds with well-conditiorled Henry Armstrong, the little perpetual motion" who hammered out pugi- lism's all-time record of 27 consec- utive knockoutS.
 Was Tough Boy
 Ambers was as fast and elusive as a mongoose. Most blows bored holes through the air where his head had been. A few glanced off his chin. Now and then one con- nected squarely with his button, but no cobwebs mantled his brain, even though he took his trips to the canvas. The "Herkimer Hurrl- cane was SO tough that when Frit- zie zivic, now welterweight cham pion, broke his jaw back in 1855, Ambers kept on fighting and won the decision.
 Hence it was that Ambers en- tered the ring a Al favorite when he fought Jenkins in May, and the Texan stunned not only members but the entire boxing world when he registered his kayo.
 Jenkins, training at Pompton Lakes, N. J., for tomorrow nights brawl, has been very impressive. He seemed stronger, more confident and deadly than before. His stam- ina had improved. His punches travel like greased lightning-like those of Joe Louis. And, consider ing the 134 1-2 pounds of the man who throws them, they are com paratively more explosive than those of the heavyweight cham pion.

Seventeen lily clubs, at Gen. tral Y have been competing throughout the season in three different basketball leagues. There has been quite a battle for supre- macy in the A. League with the Cadets and the Tech tieing for the first place in the first round and the Centrals coming through in the second round to beat out the Volunteers, Tech and Wilby.
 The Eilltops have reigned in the B League and have only been challenged by the Black Knights and the Beta.
 In the 0 League, the Aristons nosed out the Albatross in the first round, but the Albatross came back to win in the second

SENATOR NOT TO
 TANGLE WITH ANGEL

Boston, Feb. 27.-CUP)-State Sen. Joseph L. Murphy, 200-pound bald bachelor, may believe wrestling is a racket" but he has failed to back his contention by appearing at Boston Arena to sign for match with Maurice (The AngeD Tillet, known as the worlds ugliest grap- pier.
 Promoter Paul Bowser said he would arrange a match between Murphy and the Angel if the 33- year-old legislator contacted him at last nights wrestling show. Mur-, phy was not present and his home said he was somewhere in Rhode Island.
 The Angel was on deck, however, requiring slightly more than 9 minutes to twice throw and unmask the Green Dragon, who proved to be Red ODell.

Bloody War Of determination
Raging in, Russian Efforts to
Beat Hitler;s Hordes

The invading German armies
have marched far into Soviet
Russia, in no place being hurled
back by the Reds. Today they
are at the verge Of taking the
Red capital.
But this march has not been
easy. Every mile of it has been
hotly contested by Red soldiers
well-armed and magnifcently
courageous. This German trip
to Russia will go down in history
as the bloodiest battle of all time.
Claims that total dead alone
mount to over five million men of
both sides have been made by
impartial and neutral observers
A special feature of this war
is that both tn Russians and the
Germans hate each other with
undying and ferocious hate. And
in battle neither side thinks of
taking military objectives-the
aim is to kill and kill.
Hundreds of thousands of
men have been moved down by
machine gun fire of unheard of
intensity and many have gone
raving mad in the noise anG
confusion of battles that have
no let-ups for weeks.
Winter is approaching ant
not even the Russians can fac.

out of the mine (bone, slate and
other refuse) despite the new

around to see if the matter was

some foreign matter is found.
The miner who loaded the car is
locked for the weight of the
slate or other nOn-coal matter
he has loaded along with the
coal.
Neither the union nor the
company has taken trouble to
issue to us any statement for

the affair is regarded by both as
