BY OSCAR FRALEY

NEW YORK, July 27 (UP)-Beau
Jack, the little jaw-ja shoeshine
boy who parlayed pair of iron
fists into a 100000 bankroll, ex-
planned today that he has two am
bitions to satisfy before the snow
flies-and both have to do with
fighting.
First, he wants to regain the
lightweight championship Of the
world. Secondly, he wants to get
into far bigger battle-as pri-
vate in Uncle Sans army.
And I'm gonna do my best to do
both" promised the kinky-haired
kid who only three years ago earn
ed his first -$3-for winning
a siX-man battle royal at the
Augusta, Ga, national golf course.
IF everything goes right I should
do it by the end of October"
TRAINS HARD
The battling Beau is training as
Giduously for both detectives.
Under the Watchful eye of Larry
Amadee who trained Joe Louis and
John Henry Lewis, he is polishing
his ringcraft constantly. To whip
the illiteracy which originally kept
him out of the army, the one-time
locker room attendant has hired a
tutor to teach him the three RS.
He reached the high point of his
brief boxing career in Madison
Square Garden last Dec. 18 by
knocking out Tippy Larkin for
recognition in New York as light
weight king Then came two vic
tories over the veteran Fritzie ZiVic
and decision over Henry Arm
strong.
He was a happy little colored lad
aft.r each of the victories as he
sat in the crowded dressing room
at the Garden, receiving the con-
gratulationS of his admirers. But
he was a sorry spectacle the night
of May 81, the night Bob Mont
gomery hammered him around the
ring to take away that champion
ship Beau had priced so highly. His
face was swollen almost beyond
recognition, a balloon like hand
rested in an ice bucket and tears
trickled down his dusky cheeks as
the fair weather followers passed
his door to throng the dressing
room of the new champion.
BEAU is SILENT
Beau is a silent, polite lad who
doesn't do much talking. But he
vowed that night to get Mont
gomery in the ring again and win
back the title. quietly he has been
preparing himself, brushing off
more of the rough edges with two
straight knockout triumphs. Now
he feels he's ready for their Sep
tember rematch.

Control Of Rents

WASHINGTON, July 27 CUP)-
The house committee investigating
executive agencies reported today
that the office of Price Admins

wartime rents but used methods
which violated the mandate of
congress, overrode federal and local
laws, and Disseminated against
landlords.
The committee lauded the OPA's
rent division for an important
contribution" to the war effort. But
it deplored regulations which as
sertedly caused property owners
unwarranted financial losses and
engendered ill-will between land

. The 23-year-Old lett fielder came
to the Sox this summer from
Louisville as a better than nothing
chattel in a deal which returned
Jack Mcbride to the Colonels. Nc
Bride was fielding flop and the
Sox figured that Culberson, despite
his PIT average, could save games
by his fielding.
Now, Culberson-elevated to the
third spot in the Red SoX lineup
is one of Boston's pleasantest Sun
prises. He is the clubs leading
hitter with an average of 300,
which also ranks him IL in the
majors. Although he has never hit
as much as 300 at any time before
Culberson has slammed out 63 hits
including 12 doubles, three triples
and pair of homerS, while driving
home 25 runs. He has stolen SIX
bases and belted four hits on two
different occasion in 81 games.
HALTs SOX
Bob Muncrief halted the SoX with
three hits yesterday as the Browns
belted Boston, I'll, and Culberson
collected one of the blows, dou-
BILE, and stole a base.
George McQuinns three-run
triple highlighted a four-run St
Louis third inning against Yank
Terry that sewed up the decision
for the Browns. McQuinn crossed
the plate on Mike Chartak's single.
Southpay Jake Wade wilted the
Yankees with three hits but issued
eight passes to hand the New York
ers 5-3 decision over the White
SoX. The American League pace
settlers scored twice without a hit
on four passes, an error and a pain
of long flys. Hank zuber, who held
the Sox to four blows, was credit
ed with his third victory.
Cleveland romped to a 7-3
triumph over the Senators in a
night game behind the five-hit
pitching of Jim Bagby. The In
dams smacked Early Wynn, Mickey
Haefner and Alex Carrasquel for
IL hits.
Bobby Estallella's double with two
on and none our in the ninth sent
home the run that gave the Ath-
letics 81 triumph over the Tigers
in a night game. Johnny Welaj
opened the frame with a double and

peak of his 16-year career as
a professional golfer.
McSpaden gained his greatest
triumph yesterday when he won
the $4,000 All-American open by
defeating Buck" White of Green
wood, Miss, by one stroke in an
l8-hole play-off. McSpaden had a
one-under par II for the round and
White a 72. They had tied over the
regulation 72-hole tournament dist
ance with aggregates of 282, six
under par.
All the drama of the play-off
was packed into the 18th and final
hole. McSpaden and White teed off
on the 18th all even. Both had
good drives. McSpaden put his
second shot on the green, 20 feet to
the right side of the pin. White
