Bv LEWIS F. ATCHISON.

The professional wing of Anal
gamated Trainers and Handlers Lo-
cal, No. 1712. sinks furtively up back
alleys and down side streets today,
its head bowed in mortal shame.
You see the pros-Bob Hayden
and sgd Fishel-took long shot
to the post in the 175-pound bracket
of the annual Golden Gloves tour
nament last night. one Jackie
Cranston, and had to sit there and
watch a couple Of amateur handlers
in the opposite corner mastermind
their man to victory. The winner
was Wilbur Mason Of Merrick.
Mason Was Much Better.
Cranston, making his initial ap-
pearance in the yearly hand-to-
hand skirmishing. was supposed to
win as he pleased He had reach,
poise, a right potent enough to de-
capitate a bull and the benefit of
professional coaching. In addition
he also had a small reputation as
conner. All Mason had was cool
head. steady left jab. ample de-
termination and a couple of keen
amateur seconds, Naiman Massey
and Lew JamisOn.
Cranston didn't look too bad, mind
you. 1t was simply a case of Mason
looking and being much better.
Jamison is handy with the bucket
and smelling salts and with Naiman
makes a nice betWeen-roundS re-

Indefinite Suspension Is Faced
BY Courteou for Free Use of
Fists as Hockey Eagles Win

Indefinite suspension OF compact
little Paul Courteau of the Wash
ington Eagles loomed as posi-
bility TO-DAY following the fiery
French h-Canadian's battle with Hugh
Bell Of the River Vale Skeeters last
night at Riverside Stadium before
3,l43 spectators.
Paul's succession of scrapeS with
the Eastern Amateur Hockey
Leagues front office in New York
has advanced to a serious stage
Upon the report of Referee Bill
Cleary, whose own conduct won't
qualify him for a merit medal,
may hinge the immediate future
of Courteau's hockey career.
In the waning seconds of the
game, won by Washington, 81,
Courteau body-checked Bell, who
slyly conked Paul across the back
of the neck with his stick and
skated away. Paul glided after him
and landed a glancing right 10 the
head. Again Bell skated away, but
Paul pursued him as the game ended
and whipped home a more solid
right to the jaw.
Referee No Great Help.
Bell didn't seem too annoyed at
absorbing the blows and skated
away for the thiro time, but sud-
denly he reversed his field and
tangled with Courteau. Twice they
fell to the ice in the midst of their
fiStic activities, in which little
damage was done.
Botn Bell and Courteau were
playing under threat of suspension
as the result of extra -curricular
activities last week, when Bell swung
at a spectator and Colrteau be-
came involved in a fight with Coach
McKinnon.
