 Thursday; Horne To Show

The ten-round main event on the Inaugural indoor fight card of the season Thursday night at Bucking- nam hall will pit Jerry Fiorello, highly regarded Brooklyn Italian. against Larney Moore, Valley Stream, L. l., negro 150-pounder.
 Both Moore and Fiorello are we'll knoWn to local fans and of past performances of the two meen any, thing the fans should be in for a zeal slugfest, both boys being will Ing mixers who can punch hard with either hand.
 Fiorel1o dropped a close decision to Indian Gomez here several weeks back in the best bout of the out door season. Jerry, who has had a majority of his opponents, includ- Ing Cocoa Kid, on the deck showed chat he packs a wallop and that he can take hard punch.
 Moore, who isn't yet of voting age chased Eddie Dolan all over the Sing in losing close decision to the s0uthpaw veteran few weeks ago. Difficulties have arisen each time Shat offlcials of the Waterbury A. Q. have tried to rematch the two. Barney is confident that he'd stop Dolan if he could get another Ehance.

(Reg. U. s. Pat. Officc) By JACK CUDDY

United Press Staff CorrespOndent) New York, Sept. 29-(UP)-Sing- ing songs of praise for particular individual in sports has never been my special forte. But as Leary MacPhail sings his baseball swan song and enters the army, let me say that the red-headed former president of the Brooklyn Dodgers leaves behind stronged single im- pression than any one man ever connected with the game.
 I know they call the Yankees stadium the House That Babe Ruth Built and classify the great slug ger as MT. Baseball" That is all well and good, for I have no wish to belittle Babe. But to my mind, when the complex, volatile Mac Phail bid goodbye to Brooklyn, he left baseball men with a definite sense of loss. ' Laughing Larry has been will be again, we hope - one of the keenest, most complex-yet clear headed most intense and talented personalities ever associated with the national pastime.
 Not The Same
 True, Brooklyn lost the National league pennant to the St. Louis Cardinals. But even had they won and progressed to an eventual World Series victory in a return meeting with the New York Yankees, Ebbets Field and the Dodgers would never have semed the same without Mo Phail.
 Larry's successor may meet with even greater success than the red head. Still it is doubtful that the future fortunes of the Dodgers will make as strong a call to public offection.
 It wasn't how many pennants Larry actually won or lost, nor the money. He spent in acquiring new faces for the Brooklyn fans. It was instead that indefinable something that the ten-truculent. always argumentative and sometimes dic- 1 tatorial veteran of the last war lent to the Dodgers.
 His diamond deeds were legion even before he came to Flatbush It was his far-sighted genius that fathered night baseball into being a tremendous success in the major leagues Earlier he took his talents to Cincinnati and brought the Gin cinnati Reds higher on the baseball pile than they had ever been before
 But it was in Brooklyn that he really fitted into the groove. He took a club that nationally had be- come a butt for humorous parodie' and comic-strip baseball. making I major league force that gained the respect and, at the same time the liking of the general public Attendance, morale and the Brook lyn bankroll all fattened with thS advent of MacPhail.
 | Exciting
 Baseball in Brooklyn wasn't al ways winning baseball under Larry However, 1t was exciting. His dyn' annie expressiveness gave fans 1T general team the like of which they had hoped for. That team wal the Dodgers of last year-but de finitely.
 A strange man. this MacPhail perhaps the strangest ever to guide
