Ray Robinson
MayEnd Career
Without Losing
BY SID FEEDER.

NEW YORK, Jug. % - P)
Exactly 40 years ago a
midsummer night, Nate Lewis,
the bald eagle of the Boul
Mich who has heard lot of
eyebrow-lifting episodes in his
long span, got the kick of his
life.
Which is really dipping back
into ancient history to let the
folks in on something that is
about as much secret as the
fact that Joe Louis is heavy
weight champ. This is that Ray
Robinson begins to look like the
first fellow in four decades like
ly to 60 through a fistic career
without losing a fight. And this
was especially apparent last
night after the skinny swatter
from Harlem took the Colorado
cowboy, Reuben Shank, apart
in two heats at Madison Square
Garden.
The bald eagle, in case you're
not familiar with the leading
citizens of the Dashed beak bust
ness, is a guy off Michigan
Boulevard in Chicago, who is
considerably respected as
story teller and fight manager.
This particular night, his fight
ing sensation, Billy Thorn, after
scoring his 18th knockout in ID
starts, said, Mate, don't get me
any more fights-Im quitting"
Billy was the kind of a kid
who took six punches to land
one, but once he landed, the
roof fell in on the other fighter.
This night he happened to look
into mirror and saw what the
other guy had given him before
he turned the lights out. He got
an education quickly.
According to the oldest inhab-
itants, Billy was the last fight
er to bow out with a record that
never showed a defeat. Before
him there were the lightweight
champion Jack McAuliffe and
bantamweight boss Jim Barry,
and now along comes Robinson
to threaten to turn the trick
again. At least, there doesn't
seem to be anyone around who
can put the Finger into his
string, which now has reached
"a pro fights and 80 amateur
outings without a setback. We'll
terWeight Champ Red Cockrane,
the sailor boy who sat in as a
spectator at last nights fuss,
will have to prove it before a
lot of the know-it-alls will be-
lieve that he has a chance.
For a few minutes last night,
Shank's charges and free wheel
in3 wallops looked as if they
might make trouble, and the
crowd of 10,437 caught on
quickly. But Reuben made two
mistakes. The first was when
he showed up at the Garden.
The second was when he caught
Sugar Ray shot on the whiSk
ers early in the second round.
This second error shook Robin
son up and acted like stepping
ion the starter of your car. 1t
mao Rays engine explode. He
floorcd Reuben four times. The
fourth time the referee gave
Shank his hat and told him the
show was over. And even Reu-
ben was convinced b. that time.

With Johnson pitching, Ruth
will step to the plate between
games and attempt to belt the
ball out of the park, just as he
did no less than TIA times IN
his % years as Major League
player.
Other extra-curricular activi-
ties. including a relay race
around the bases, a 60-yard
dash, a fungo hitting contest for
pitchers and a throwing test for
catchers, will make it a field
day for players and customers
alike.
Advance ticket sales indicate
a near-capacity crowd of more
than $4,000.
Before ye sterday's game
which opened the New York
Washington series at the Stadi-
UNI, Ruth did little practicing.
Batting against Gerry Priddy,
an infielder, the Babe drove
three balls far back into the
right field seats.
After their former slugging
star retired, the Yankees went
out and put on a demonstration
of their own, blasting Fl hits OF
three Washington pitchers to
crush the Senators, l7-7.
Phil Rizzuto led the way with
five hits, two of them in the
six-run first inning, VIII lie
Charlie Keller poled his 22nd
home run and Joe Gordon blast
ed his 14th into the stands.
The Yankees needed the vic
tory to preserve their lO1s
game margin, for the second
place Boston Red Sox whipped
the Philadelphia Athletics, 7-5,
in an arc light game, although
they were out-hit, IL to IL.
Tony Lupien hit two singles
and a triple and drove in four
of the Red Sox runs, three OF
them on a hit-run single with
the bases loaded.
Cleveland's Indians squeezed
out a So decision over the Chi
cago White Sox in another night
game, strengthening their hold
on third place with the help OF
the Detroit Tigers, who tripped
the st. Louis Browns.
Mel Harder pitched five-hit
ball for the tribe to shade Lefty
Thornton Lee, who gave up only
seven blows but nicked Oris
Hockett with a pitched ball af-
ter loading the bases and forced
in the deciding run.
Home runs by Barney McCos-
ky and Rudy York spanked a
four-run Tiger outburst which
carried Detroit to a Al decision
over the Browns.
The National League program
was confined to a pair of after
noon games, but in one of these
the st. Louis Cardinals wallop-
ed the Pittsburgh Pirates, 1912,
and reduced the lead Of the
idle Brooklyn Dodgers to six
games and a half.
It was the seventh straight
triumph for the Cards, who are
gathering steam for their i'm
portant four-gamc showdown
with the Dodgers next week.
John Beazley pitched six-hit
ball in registering his 18th win,
while Stan Musial and Walker
Cooper each cracked a two-run
homer.

9s GAME OFFICIALS TO TRANSPLANT FISH NEAR HERE

Executive Officer Frank Dufresne of the Alaska Game Commission to- day announced that under a new program of the commission, good streams near Juneau and other cities in Alaska soon will be stocked with fine cutthroat and rainbow trout.
 Dufresne and Wildlife Agent Rod Darnell returned to Juneau last night after a trip to the Snettisham district where they n cited 1000 fingerlings which have been trans planted in Salmon Creek between the dam and the falls.
 Dufresne said that this trip was for the purpose of testing the feasi- bility of the plan and that it has been found very practicable and inexpensive.
 Under the program, all game com- mission patrol vessels and planes which visit Juneau will bring in several thousand fingerlings for transplanting each time, and also take the fingerlings to other ports of call. The idea, Dufresne said, is to bring the small fish from the inaccessible streams to streams near the more populated areas of Alaska.

Wall Streeters Doubt Initiation Controls are HoIdinl
Leading Shares Skyrocket
During Heavy Trading
Soy Firmsr Control Measures

Labor statistics for the United
States show the cost of living in
early June actually was a shade
below the date when the retail
pr re ceiling was fixed.
The big initiation problem, as
seen by Commerce Secretary
j Jones. Price Administrator
Henderson, and 9th ,rs in Wash
ington. Is mounting purchasing
power in time of growing limita-
ton of the amount of goods
available to be brought.
Jones said that in 1913 the
American people would have
about $40, 900. 600, 900 more in
come than the value of things
for which money car be spent.
If we permit that amount of
money to run wild" he assert
ed, 1T will cause very great
damage to our whole economy"
Treasury experts recommend
pulling much to this money
back through taxation and sale
of war bonds to the public. This
new tax bill, still under debate
in Congress is So, 700 600, 900
short of the Treasury's request
ed goal.
Cost Of living in the United
States, as based on the U. S.
Bureau of abor statistics index
for wage earners. showed in
early June an increase of about
Is per cent over the 1935.39 av-
erage.
Meanwhile, Incomes have
mounted. The Bureaus index of
employment in all manufacture
ing industries is up about 40 per
cent over the 1859 average.
The Bureaus statistics on hourly
wage rates. in manufacturing in
dustries, last issued for April,
show an increase of about 35
per cent over the 1859 aver
age.
What Washington controllers
are trying to prevent is what
happened in World War 1, when
the cost Of living doubled be-
tween 1915 and 1920. Hourly
wage rates of factory workers.
on the average, did the same
thing, but persons on fixed in
come were cruelty pinched, and
a sharp slump came in 1921.
Many economists believe a sit
uation of unbalance was engen-
dered, which contributed to the
severe depression of the 1905.
