 Newark Bears, 2-1
(By United Press)

(Undated)-The Newark Bears, heading for their seventh Interna- tional league pennant in II years, split a doubleheader with the Balti- more Orioles Friday.
 After lowing to Joe Krakauskas' flve-hitter, 21, in the first game, the Bears scored four runs in the sixth ming to win the nightcap, 6-3. Al Gerheauser, with assistance from Phil Page, held the Orioles to five hits in the nightcap. Tommy Byrne's wildness cost him the opener.

PARKER SURPRISES
 FOREST HILLS SET
Favored Segura Now Has Real Problem; Jinx Fal=
 kenberg Out

New York, Aug. 29-(UP)-Fran- cisco Segura of Ecuador, self f-styled "man to beat" makes 8 delayed start in the 61st National Amateur Ten his Championships at Forest Hills today, his Andean optimism jolted by the comeback of little Frankie Parker.
 Parker, 8 mite of man whose skill with 8 racquet enabled the United States to recapture the Davis Cup from England in 1897, re- turned to tournament competition yesterday and his first round victory was revelation.
 Parker smashed Jack Geller of New York, 60, 60, 60, and his stroking exhibition proved that leaving the tennis circuit to work as a Hollywood technician hadn't hut his game. It was a far differ ent Parker from the little man who usually showed up for the nationals over -tennised and who managed to place third behind Bobby Riggs and Frank Kovacs in national seedlings last season.
 Ambitious
 "I'm in swell shape, and I'd cer- tainly like to win this one," said Parker, who is seeded second behind Ted Schroeder of Glendale, Calf. Riggs and Kovacs turning profess Sional leaves me top man and maybe I'll be able to make 1t stick"
 The only first round match not completed was that between Segura, top seeded in the foreign draw, and Ensign Ronald Edwards, Ithaca, N. Y.
 All of the mems second round, with the exception of the Segura- Edwards winner, will be played to- day, in addition to the first round of the women's doubles, the first round of the mixed doubles and two first round women's matches. Parker faces Dick Hart, Miami, while Schroeder engages Pvt. Gil Hunt, Langley Field, Va.
 All the women's favorites ad- vanced on schedule.
 Jinx Falkenburg, Hollywood screen star, was among the first round casualties. She was eliminated by Mrs. Madge Vosters, Lansdowne, Pa. 6-1, 6-2.

Cochrane And Zivic
 To Meet Again, But Not For l46 Title

New York, August 29-Announce- ment of the long awaited return match between Freddie (Red) Coch- rane ,rane, specialist first class in the U. s. Navy, and Fritzie Zivic, from whom Cochrane won the world welterweight title, has met with highly favorable reaction in fight circles and has had an imme- diate and enthusiastic response at the box office.
 Cochrane and Zivic clash in a ten-round match at Madison Square Garden on Thursday night, Sept. 10, with the United Service Organiza- tions (USO) the beneficiary.
 Cochrane is now on leave from the San Diego Naval Station and his leave has been extended, through the cooperation of the Navy Department and Freddie's commanding officers, to allow him to engage in this contest.
 Lost No Time
 On the same day the bout was announced, last Thursday, Coch- rane left for Bey's training camp in Summit, N. J., to prepare for his first ring appearance since last May when he lost a widely dis puted decision to Garvey Young in Boston.
 zivic, whose last ring start saw him victorious over this same Gar vey Young, at the Garden on Aug. 13, began hard training at once Il Pittsburgh and will be in New York this week to finish up here
 The first meeting between Coch- rane and zivic took place at the Ruppert Stadium in Newark a year ago last July 29. It resulted in one of the major fistic upsets of the year when Cochrane, given only an outside chance to defeat the Pitts burgh titleholder, started throwing punches at the opening bell and never stopped through fifteen hard rounds.
 Cochrane's strong offensive took Eivic by surprise and 1t wasn't until the closing rounds that he pulled himself together and rallied furi- ously to save his title but it was too late. Cochrane had piled up an overwhelming margin and he won the verdict with something to spare.

ness. And this fighting is 8 busi- ness. That's why I'm so interested in helping Jimmy. I want him to succeed in his business and win the title and make a lot of money particularly now for little Jimmy so that little Jimmy will have the best of everything before he, too enters the ring. Sure-my babyll be a fighter"
 Mrs. Hatcher may be nuts about boxing, but she's smart as imported mustard. She's a graduate of Sara sota, Fla, High School and was ready to take a college course that would fit her as physical instruc- tor, just before she met jabbing Jimmy. Since she had been a sopho- more in high school, she had gone to boxing bouts, and when she saw Hatcher licking a bigger guy in the Sarasota ring, she just said, there's my man."
 And there he was.
 Roly-poly Al We'll, manager of the former lightweight king, Lou Ambers, and pilot of Arturo Godoy, the Chilean who fought Joe Louis twice, handles Hatcher, and irn- partially describes him as the next lightweight "champeen." Concerning Blonde Toby, Weill says, I don't know much about her, except that she's Q pretty kid, and one of the smsrtest judges of boxers l ever 1 seen."

Illinois Farmer Wins
 Trapshoot Title

Vandalia, O., Aug. 29.-(UP)- James H. Holderman a 32-year old Morris. H., farmer, held the na- tion's trapshooting laurels today. He scored surprise victory in the 43d annual grand American trapshoot- ing tournament.
 The $10,O00 handicap was raised to 200 target race-twice it's form CT length-in an effort to have an expert win. Holderman. an unknown marksman, won trapshooting's most important crown in shoot-off with Ray Finney, a Mankato, Minn., dry cleaner. Each had broken 193 tar- gets and they shot off 25 targets im- mediately after the field of 985 con- pleted the 2o0-bird grind.
 Holderman cracked 25 straight from the 20-yard line and Finney, big-game hunter and winner of the Class A event last year, missed his fifth and 10th birds. He shot from the 23-yard stripe. The title is worth approximately $1,570 to Hol- derman.

BENRUS, SCOvILL
 EASY WYNN FRS

Convincing all and sundry that he is the Standout softball pitcher of the 1942 season, at least locally, Pete Yarnall of the Benrus team in the Dusty Softball league gave Waterbury Tool batters but one hit and that to his mound rival Hardy Brownell, shut them out 20 and eliminated last years champions from the championship playoff this year. Benrus got but 4 hits but that was enough, Lombardo seeking homer after Minors two-baser in the fourth inning.
 American Brass rushed through a fast and victorious game for a 3 to win over Waterbury Manufac- turing while Scovill had no trouble blanking French Manufacturing 50 on two-hit pitching by Fradette Paper Box and Plume Atwood tied at runs in seven innings which will be settled later.

(Reg. U. s. Pat Off.) BY JACK CUDDY

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York, Aug. 29-(UP)-One of the most unusual persons we've encountered in the realm of sports is little Toby Hatcher, a pretty blonde gal who is nuts about box ing" who is married to light weight contender, and who actually works as a second for her husband
 Little Toby would be hitting out for Los Angeles soon were it not for their three-months' baby boy, Jimmy, Jr., who, Toby notes, already doubles up his fists and is bound to be a fighter-"just like his dad"
 Jimmy Hatcher, ST., a fast, smart leather from Lake City, s. C., heads vets soon in his campaign for the lightweight crown. On Sept. II, he tangles with Juan zuratti at Los Angeles. And after this engage ment comes the lightweight cham pion, Sammy Angott, at New Or leans-in a non-title bout which now is being arranged for Sept. 28.
 T can't go to Los Angeles because little Jimmy is so young," Mrs. Hatcher said. But I'm making ar- engagements so that I'll be in New Orleans for the Angott fight I'm trying to get a seconds license in New Orleans, and I'm fixing it so that a very good friend in New York will take care of the baby during the few days I'm absent"
 Blonde Toby is not particularly concerned with the Los Angeles bout because neither her big book of clippings about current light weights nor her library of boxing books make much mention of the Los Angeles opponent, zuratti.
 But" she said. T feel that I'll be needed in the ring when Jimmy tackles Champion Angott. Angott has an awkward style. But I'm sure Jimmy can beat him-with the proper corner advice = because Jimmy has the youth, speed and skill to do it."
 Blonde Toby, who stands only five feet one and packs 1O1 pounds along with Sarasota, Fla, drawl, insists upon being in the ring with husband Jimmy when he meets Angott, because, she said, Ines never lost when I was in his cor- ner."
 That's true, because young Hatcher lost only one of his last 34 bouts. He dropped decision a few months ago to slugger White at Baltimore. Little Toby wasn't in the ring that night because he | in the ring that night because she had an important engagement with a physician concerning the when abouts of Jimmy, Jr.
 And Hatcher's defeat that night mortified Toby no end, because she was eligible to have been in the Baltimore corner, having seconded her hubby in three previous Balti- more fights.
 I've been in Jimmy's corner for about 12 of his fights since we were married three years ago. she said. T was his second in Baltimore, Charleston, s. C., and in the Flor ida cities of Miami, Palm Beach, Sarasota, and Clearwater"
 Certainly, do everything that any other second could do-take out his mouthpiece, cool him off with an ice-water sponge, and fix any cuts. But he doesn't often get cut he's too fast for that. No, the sight of blccd doesn't sicken me in the least. realize it's part of the busi-

HILLS OPPOSE
 DI NAPOLIMEN LOOKS vS TRIBES
Malone, Guerrero Expect ed to Pitch; Grabeck
 for B. A. C.

Final activity of the sesson in the City Amateur League is ticketed for tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock when two games are to be played involving the Brooklyn A. 0. and the Overlooks the pair of clubs still in the running for second round honors.
 Both contests will get under way at the same time, the Brooks meet ing Red Gladney's dangerous Wash ington Hills on Diamond No. while the Looks meet the Tribunes in the second field setto.
 Unofficially, the Brooks copped the league crown Thursday night at the East End field when they defeated Mill Plain 5-2 while the Looks were being upset by the Avi- glianese 7-4 at Fulton Park. The Avigs, however, may not be credited with a triumph in the league record books, having a pair of ineligible ball players in the lineup against Bob BanZiger's charges. Tony Ro- manello's former Public Park League champions appeared for the contest Thursday night, two men short, the missing pair being held up by work ing hours and as a result Mike Sku- ba and Lemons" Piel, former Sa- cred Heart performers, were used to put nine men on the field.
 The Looks kept their star hurler, Bob Malone on the. bench Thurs day to save him for tomorrow's con- test with the Tribes. Felix Longo will do the catching.
 Righthander Dom Guerra will be on the hill for the Tribunes with Joe Rinaldi doing the catching. A loss for the Looks would automatic ally put the Brooklyn A. c. down as the seasons champions. A win for the Brooks, regardless of what happens to the Looks would also serve to put the boys from across the bridge into the drivers seat for the second straight year.
 Coach Eddie DiNapoli of the Brooks, taking no chances on any upsets, will have Teddy Grabeck back on the hill again with Mike Haiday behind the bat. The Brooks have won 13 contests this season without dropping a one and none to continue undefeated tomorrow against the Hills.
 Manager Red Gladney of the Baldwin Streeters has nominated Pat Quilter, one of the league vet erans, to take over the Hill mound chores with Pop" Doyle behind the plate. Quilter, always great spot pitcher seems to be the man to beat the champions If anyone is and with two weeks rest behind him, should prove to be plenty tough for the Brooks.

Famous New York Bay Parkways
 Here Sunday Night

The famous Bay Pathways from Brooklyn, N. Y, leaders of the big New York Metropolitan baseball as- sociation, managed by Harry Hesse. former Albany and Hartford East ern League star, will be the attrac- ton at the Municipal Stadium to- morrow night when they clash with Fred Davis Waterbury Brasscos un- der lights starting at 8:30.
 The Pathways season record of 27 wins and 10 losses reads like some thing out of the Brooklyn Dodgers record book. Listed among their victims are the Bushwicks, whom they defeated last Sunday for the fourth time this season in six games, the famous Black Yankees, Moose" Swaneys Grumman Bombers, Long Island City, Springfield Greys and the Philadelphia Stars of the Na- tional Negro professional league.
 The Pathways started off the sea- son with 13 game winning streak and five of the ten games which they have lost thus far have been by a margin of single run. Man. ager Harry Hesse, the former East ern League star and well known to Waterburians who remember the old Eastern League days at Brassco Park has been at the helm of the Pathways for eight years and claims that this years club is the best ever.
 There's enough power in ou1 batting order to blow Pine Hill t pieces" writes Harry. Eight of hi players are hitting 300 or over ir the classy Metropolitan Association with Eddie Dietz, his catcher lead ing the group with mark of .414 Following in order are Art Rosen. berg, the first baseman, .336; Tim. my Adams, centerfiielder, .329, Sammy Williams, left fielder, .324; Gene Zaiser, third base, .324; and last but by no means least Frankie Novesel, the second baseman, who is hitting a respectable 1902.
 The appearance of the crack Pathways here tomorrow night will mark the second time that they have played a Sunday game out of town in IA years. Their No. l finger is Wally Holborow who has racked up IT wins and 2 losses this season.
 BrasscO Briefs
 The Brasscos will play their first road game and their first Saturday night contest away from home to- night when they travel to Kingston, N. Y. to face the Colonials. Man. ager Davis old club Tommy Sheehan, Brassco catcher, Whs worked out with the Washington Senators and Boston Red Sox in re- cent weeks, has turned down offer to join their farm clubs in favor oj a scholarship to Notre Dams which he now holds .. Wally Hol' borrow, the Bay Parkway pitching star, is leading the pitchers in tht Metropolitan Baseball Association in the earned run averages with 2.3 per game :. Timmy Adams, the Parkway cepterfielder, is in the throes of consecutive hitting streak that sounds like Joe DiMag- gio's. Adams has hit safely in 35 of the Parkways' 37 games to date, Tom Taylor, the BraSscos coach-comedian who stole the show on the Montreal Clowns week ago tonight, will be back on the coacn- ing lines again Sunday night to make things interesting for Harry Hesse :. Hesse is looking forward to renewing acquaintances here which he made during his Eastern League days.

COMES FROM FAR BACK TO WIN GOING AWAY

Twice he appeared hopelessly out of it, yet sped home going away winner under hard drive. He was shut out at No. l position at the start and knocked about and caught in, pocket on the turn.
 But when Conn McCreary guided him to clear sailing far out on the strip in the home stretch, he came from far back to beat the Wheatley Stables Devils duck by a length. Hyperionion, for which Walter Chrysler, Jr., paid $18,500, was third.
 Devils Thumb undoubtedly was tired at the finish, yet he probably would have scored by greater mar gin if the race had been at a mile He was moving faster than any of his dozen crack opponents at the windup. He carried 126 pounds, spotting all save Foxcatchers Farms Suncap from four to 14
 Devils Thumb has left no doubt as to his mastery over the better 2-year-olds which he has raced.
 It is the way he has accomplished it as much as what he has done that makes Devils Thumb a stand out.
