 In Title Bout

6OoVoAls Jaus A&-NOEJ~-41tuotEly
 Boston, Jan. ll.--CUP)-Timothy tBuddy) Hayes. Boston's self-styied "Irish hand grenade" boxes Jackie Harris of Maiden for the New Eng land featherweight title tonight in the first of a series of sanc- tened matches to revive the long, dormant regional championships.
 Already the six state boxing com missions have approved the Hayes Harris clash and indicated that by summer they expected to sponsor bouts to settle titular hon. ors in at least five of the remain ing seven divisions.
 Despite the fact that he has seen no amateur competition, Hayes irl slightly more than a year has fought his way to the top of the class.
 In a bouts to date the spindle Shanked youngster has won 37 and lost five--one of the latter by a
 Develops New Hook
 During the process he's developed what he calls his ''croSsbow hook''- punch in which he gains added power leaning back in the ring ropes and then catapulting forward at his opponent.
 Harris, who's growing trifle large for the class, is a World War IT veteran who came home after two years service in the China Burrna-Tndia theater to win eight of his nine starts.
 The title for which they'll fight has been vacant more than two years, the last holder being Mau- lice Gefty) La Chance of Lisbon, Me. Prior to that it was held by NBA champion Sal Bartolo and be- fore him by New York style king Willie Pep. Both gave up the crown when they won their national hon. orS.
 COntendeFs Named
 In selecting Hayes and Harris for the match, the commissions add ed that logical contends and fu- ture challengerS were Steve KroniS, Boston, Larry Bolvin of Providence, R. l., Tommy Moore of Boston, Leo Mucucci of Portland, Me, Bobby English of Fall River and even Jack (Spider) Armstrong, a Toronto na- tive who has been fighting a year or more in New England.
 Next championship scheduled to be settled was the lightweight which has been vacated by Julie Kogan of New Haven, Conn. Top choice in the class was Pat Demers of Brockton with others listed as Pat Foley, Worcester; Fqorent Desmaris, Manchester, N. H.; Steve KraniS, Boston; Johnny Cool, Worcester; Oscar St. Pierre, Fall River; Jerry zuilo, Chelsea; Dave Andrews, Lowell.
 Other classes with their cham pions and contenders recognized by the commissions were:
 WELTERWETGHT: Champion, Georgie Martin, Boston; Ralph zan- nelh, Providence, R. l.; Johnny Cesario, Boston; Bobby Zollo, Provi- dence, R. l., Garvey Young BoS- ton; Freddie Camuso. Fall River; Tony Braindino. Providence, R. I.
 MIDDLEWEIGHT: Champion, Coley Welch, Portland, Me; Henry Chemel, Boston; Saint Paul, Spring field: Jerry Maloni. Springfield; Al (Redl Priest, Boston.
 LIGHTWEIGHT Champion, Italian Jack Dempsey, New Bed ford: John Henry Eskew, Brockton; Jackie Caparel. Boston: Tommy Sul- 1lvsn, Boston. Schoolboy Barthiaume, Pawtucket, R. I.
 HEAVYWEIGHT: Shampion Na- than Mann, New Haven, Conn; Bill Weinberg, Chelsea; Johnn Pretzie, Boston; Bernie McNally. Cambridge.
 No one ever held the flyweight title, and the bantamweight crown has been vacant more than 10 years.

 CLUB NEWS Prom a few of our neighboring fish and game clubs has trickled in to your writer by way of the grapevine and after match ing the loose strands and putting the ends together, this is what we make of what we received:
 After approximately five years of distinguished service in the capacity of president of the Naugatuck Fish & Game Association, Fred Baker (one of the well-known Baker Bros.") has retired to the rank ot a brother-member of the Naugatuck Club. The newly-elected president is Dr. Joseph Sitar, former secretary OA bAAC CAlU eAtt0 d1l nbAC QAARSCA oNANA leader in his own right. Congratu- lations, Doc.
 Those long-awaited jacket-em- blemS the Waterbury Fish & Game Protective Association had on order have finally arrived and they are just as attsN stive as John Kulman said they would be-which was quite 8 bill to fill. Neither dog nor gun will be needed next Season-no sir. Just the new emblem and a small stick. The emblem to lure the game Q you and the stick to Shoo away what you don't want.
 The start of this new year has seen another change in club lead ership. With the bylaws of the Peck Lane Sportsmen's Club stating that no president can serve two consecutive years, Earl Kurtz has retired from the presidency of the club that he and fifteen other char ter-members founded and organized just one year ago tomorrow. But, tomorrow being its first anniversary, we'll save some of the facts till then

BILLY'S "SAWDUsT TRAIL

Boston (UP)-The origin of Billy Sundays "Sawdust Trail has been disclosed by the famed revivalist's wife, Mrs. William (Ma) Sunday.
 She said that in Western forests woodsmen laid a trail of sawdust SO they might find their way back home. When Billy began his work, he couldn't afford a floor, so saw dust was laid on the ground.
 One of the woodsnen at a re- vival saw the sawdust and eX- claimed, They're hitting the saw dust trail" The expression caught on and was used from then on.

HOLLYWOOD, Jan. 14-I used to consider Stan Laure. remark. ably fine actor, but time and events have conspired to shake my con- viction. By events, I'm referring to his matrimonial adventures.
 If I remember correctly (and Allah knows, I can't be blamed if donD, Stan first married a lady named Mae. Then he married an- other lady named Lois. After their divorce, he led to the alter a lady named Virginia Ruth. Up to tha, point, he was merely living nor nal Hollywood life. It's the sub sequent complications that leave me a bit agog.
 Virginia Ruth divorced him n due course, but Stan persuaded her to let bygoneS be bygones and they were re-married-for awhile. Vir- ginia Ruth divorced him the SeconG time about six or seven years ago. Then Stan met 8 Russian dancer named 1lleana, and made her his misSus, via two wedding ceremonies, one before a pustice of the peace and another (after innumerable parting and reconciliations) before Russian priest.
 After Illeant finally made ther threats good and won her freedom, Stan thought it all over, declared publicly that Virginia Ruth had been the best of all his wives, and married her for the third time. And now, so help me, she's suing for a third divorce.
 If by now you're confused, be conSoled. So am land so un- doubtedly is Stan. That's what makes me doubt his ability as an actor. When he dons that expres- sion of hopeless befuddlement, the poor guy probably isn't acting at all.

One of the many reasons why the sports of fishing and hunting have holds on the affection and interest of their followers which neither the marching years nor the chang ing circumstances of life can break or even loosen, is that no sportsman can hope to learn all, or even any- thing like all, there Is to know about them.
 When a man or a boy first goes to the fields, waters, or woods for his recreation he enters new and alluring world of endless variety and not few complications. He buys a shotgun because he thinks ie would be fun to shoot quail--and with year or twos passing he has turned his backyard into kennel and Is experiencing the pleasures and tribulationS of the dog owner and trainer. He pays a dime for a hand line with which to kill a dull SeaShore-reSort afternoon, and the next summer finds him the owner of a closetfull of fishing tackle and spending half his time WUttQSTlthB WHY AlAS OuebOuAQ AhSVSA doesn't turn over or why his canoe does.
 There are of course, one-sport men who become experts in such specialties as fishing with dry flies or pass-Shooting at ducks, and who regard with complete lack of inter- est such pleasureable diversions as plugging for bass or gunning for the elusive cottontail. But such puristS are few in number, and 1t is doubt full that they have nearly so much fun as they think they have.
 The average sportsman likes the spice of variety, takes his sport when and where he can find it, and gets equal pleasure out of a spark ling spring morning on trout stream, a lazy summer afternoon on bass lake, a hard hike through the autumn woods on the track of a buck, and the gray dawn of @ cold winter day in a duck blind.

Here In Hollywood. where ap. pearanceS count for so much, it's never safe to judge by them. For instance, I happened to hear a coule of ladies making snide com- ments about movie stars who never appear in public without wearing dark glasses. "A silly affectation!' they said. Since the particular tar get for their criticism was Esther Williams, I think they should be advised that her inevitable dark glasses are not an affectation They're equipped with ground lens eS, and worn because she's So near-sighted that without them she couldn't tell the difference between Louis B. Mayer and his prize race horse, BuSher.
 Ronald Kirkbride, now a Para mount scenarist, distinguished him. self at the remarkably age of I6 by writing and having published a biography of Guy de Maupassant, the famous French novelist, His book dealt in faithful detail with some of the more naughty phases of Partisan life. About year after its publication, Kirkebride tells me, he had occasion to refer to it and, not being able to find a copy of his own, went to the public library The librarian, unaware of his iden- ty, asked his age and refused to let him have the book on discover ing he was minor!

During the early days of Hit. ler's power. she was famous on the German stage as dancing star Her name then was Fee Malten By 1886, her one burning ambition was to come to America, and think her ruSe to dodge the ern. bargo which at that time prevented top-fight entertainers from. leav. ing Germany, is interesting. One night in Berlin, she simulated bad fall while she was dancing before an audience of Hitler's lieutenants The doctor who examined her was her confederate. He signed an af fldavit that she would be perman- ently crippled and unable to con- tinue her career, and she was given her passport without further ado
 Joseph Cotten's Xmas present from his wife, believe it or not, was a concrete mixer. Throughout the holidays he labored to build a re. taining wall. Then it rained.
