Chief Boxing Inspector Willie
Ritchie that the sport as conducted
in California was dirty and stink
ing" the committee ended it's in
vestigation late yesterday by an
nouncing it could find nothing to
substantiate the charge.
Ritchie, former world lightweight
champion, testified cnat gamblers
had attempted to bribe fighters to
hit the canvas and that Referee
Abe Roth altered his Ortiz-Maas
scorecard the day after to give
Ortiz the fight. The committee
found no eviGence 10 support that
he might have changed his card,

Lynch
Sorry?
Bv LISLE SHOEMAKER

HOLLYWOOD, March II. (UP)-
Youthful Fight Promoter Joe Lynch
Saturday said he was sorry II ne
had thrown the lightweight plans
of New York'5 Mike Jacobs into
an uproar when Juan Zurita took
the MIA title away from Sammy
Angott Wednesday night but said
if Mike found things too tough he'd
give him a job as my office boy"
LoquaciouS Lynch, who has given
southern California more title
fights in recent years than any
other local or imported matchmak-
er, took the credit for the astounc-
ing Zurita upset victory because he
said he was the only promoter IL
the country who would give Zurita
a chance at Angott.
Il want to be a big promoter
the biggest promoter in the world
and I'm already planning on stag
ing championship bouts in Berlin,
Paris and London Immediately af-
ter the war" Lynch said.
Actually the black-haired flashily
dressed 33-year-old Lynch has be-
come a threat to Jacobs in the
National Boxing association ranks.
The minute he heard Sal Bartolo
had captured Phil TerranoVa's NBA
featherWeight title last night IL
Boston he wired Bartolo an offer
to defend his crown here in Holly
wood against Manuel Ortiz, MeXi-
can undiSputed bantamweight
champ.
Former fighter Joe, center of
many storm ring controversies, or
riginally had Terranova signed to
meet Ortiz here but Terranova lat
er declined to come west saying he
didn't think he'd like the climate.
Why, that's a terrible thing to
say" screamed Lynch, I'm turn
ing his statement over TO the cham
Der Of commerce"

JACOBS YELL TIME"
Promoter Mike Jacobs was SO
distraught ever the upset that he
yelled for time" in which to do
his thinking and maneuvering. He
said, iii forget about the light
weight situation until after Friday
nights heavyweight bout between
Joe Baski and Lee Savold.' But
Uncle Mike wasn't forgetting the
lightWeights. He was on the tele-
phone most of Thursday, trying tc
induce Zurita to meet Montgomery
on the 3lst for the undisputed
title. He was trying to liquidatc
the contract under which Zurita
had agreed 10 a return title tilt
with Angott within 30 days.
Jacobs was using as lever the
fact that Angott Thursday was
pronounced acceptable by the army
for limited service, and that he
might be called at any time. Mean
while, Zurita's manager George
Parnassus, and the Los Angeles
promoter, Joe Lynch, were goading
Jacobs with threats to stage re-
turn Zurita- Angott bout in Mexico
City within six weeks. For Jacobs
it was che big mess.

BY JACK CUDDY

NEW YORK, March ii. tUP)-
Jacobs Beach - Americas most
calloused thoroughfare - still is
flabbergasted by Hcllywood's latest
screwball opus in which a little
known Mexican, Juan zurita,
wrecked the plans for the years
richest fight in the fabulous light
weight division.
The habitueS of punch promenade
still are shaking their heads in
credulously over news that zurita
won a lop-Sided victory Wednes day
night in Hollywood over Sammy
Angott, who hadn't been beaten in
five years by a man close to the
lightweight limit of 1876 pounds.
Although the California odds for
that Hollywood bout, in which An
gott lost his MIA crown, were
quoted as Al and 5-1, favoring
Angott, you could have had 81 or
10-1 on 10th street where the
Smart-money boys had Sc much
respect for Slammin' Sam of wash
ingtOn, Pa.
The inhabitants of gladiatorS
gluch regarded zurita as Just an
other push-over. Hadn't he been
knocked out by Slugger White?
They considered Angott's eXpedl-
ton as just another journey after
a soft touch. zurita was a SOFT
puncher and moreover a guy who
lacked the speed and ringcraft OF
the great Angott.

that he should be tough competi-

the International club Border
Championship Golf tournament Sat-
urday morning.
McLaren. pro at the Barbara
Worth club. is assisting Earl Rob-
erts. CaleXico clubs manager in ar
ranging the tournament being
staged Saturday and Sunday.
SIN FLIGHTS PLAY
Forty-eight players had qualified.
pairings drawn. three mems flights
besides a championship flight and
two ladies flights arranged. and the
first play started at lea p. m.
Saturday when the upper bracket
fcursome in the championship
flight took off for that long trip
The foursome play may make for
speedier play and faster eliminia-
ton but that's also where it
makes for uncertainty.
PLAY THREE MEN
1T is tough enough to play
against che man who may be play
ing an excellent game, but when
you have TO play against three men
all at once. at least one of those
guys is going to make you bear
down." Jersey Birchfield, Ell Centre
fireman. declared.
If play had been on the pairing
basis we'd quickly pick Birchfield
and Blalack to finish, paired in the
finals of the championship flight.
We still do. but not without some
miSgivingS. because those niblickers
Rogers, Donnelly and Manley are
trippers and champion calibre boys
themselves. In fact the flight is
flight cf champs. Blalack won the
I. V. title at El Centro two weeks
ago defeating jersey. Jersey won
the Inter-city and l. V. crowns last
year. Rogers holds the Border title
now from the last meeting two
years ago Donnellg was qualifying
medalist and I. V. first flight
champ Jones. Carter and Went
worth wouldn't be in the bracket if
they didn't have the timbre so
while I'm picking Vic and Jersey.
/. I'm also casting glanceS around
for fox holes. . However, while
I'm at it I'll 60 clear out on tie
edge of the limb and say that if
these two do compete that Birch
field will win to redeem his defeat
in the l. " match.
TOUGH ON EYES
In the other flights a quick sur
vey makes us fancy these lads
First Flight Ten Ritter. Clyde
Lee, Red Edwards and Ray Ed
wards with emphasis on the first
two. Second flight-The heat will
be on Bill Jacobs but maybe we'd
better sit this one out. Third Flight
Earl Hunter, Jerry Bennett and Nc
Cauley catch the eye but you take
it from there.
HANDICAPS, HANDICAP
The ladies flights are dependent
upon handicaps. In the champ
flight we'll put our dough en- Bush
ard and Stevens. In the first
flight Roberts and Jensen lcok best.
But these ladies, bless them, you
know how things can change, how
ever we'll stick to these four.
The pest way to find out how
they play is to go out Sunday and
catch that final championship bat
tie and pick up clubhouse
chatter on why they dropped that
hole to lose. Well see you.

THE SITUATIONS:

THE SITUATION: At a social
gathering you meet war veteran
who has been wounded.
WRONG WAY: Because you
want him to know you are SYM
pathetic, ask him in what engage
ment he was wounded, how long
he was in hospitals, etc.
RIGHT WAY: Talk about other
things, taking on obvious notice
of his wounds. And, if possible
talk about something besides the
war.
