Save Electrics at WHY'S Park by
the the sore of 3 to l, in a con-
test which was interrupted by
questionable decisions by - ~
umpires. However, it must be
said in behalf of the umpires
that the decisions were fair and
unbiased. The Save Electrics
team walked off the field and
registered a protest which will
be aired at the next meeting OF
the powerful rules committee
The Acklin Stampers really
put on the pressure when they
unleashed an attack on the To-
ledo Tools and pounded out a
10 to 0 victory at Wilson Park.
Tom Upton was the winning
pitcher, striking out seven
enemy batters. Pete Hoffman
hit safely two times out of
three, including a double and a
home run.
The big surprise of the eve
ming came when the Hall Mfg.
Unit, known for grit and will
to win, walloped the Champion
Spark Plug boys to the tune of
8 to 6. Don Miller was in form
and limited the Pluggers to five
weak hits. According to the
spectators, the Champion team
should have won in a walk, but
the Hall (Room) boys thought
differently.
The Industrial Rubbers made
their home runs count when
they were needed and beat
Mather Spring by the score of
8 to / at WHY'S Park. Herbie

Kurek has been playing IN,
and supervising, golf tourna-

making the Local II battler
miss on his timing.
Tito Clarey, the 9O-pound
sensation of the Local II
A. c., scored a TKO over Bob
Zraik, of the Strasbourg A. l.
Zraik was a willing mixer
and iolted Tito a few times,
but superior knowledge OF
the game won the victory Tor
the Local IL lad.
Much credit is given to the
showing of the boxers from
St. Michaels A. c., Pontiac,
Michigan, who won three out
of four bouts on the card.
The St. MichaePs battlers
seemed to be well coached,
were in fine physical condl-
ton and know what boxing is
all about. The Local II A. I.
plans to place the St. Michael
boxers in return matches dur
ing the coming months. The
only Pontiac boy to lose was
Hank Roberts, who was de-
cisioned by Bob Abbey of the
Murphy A. c. Abbey will
give up boxing for the time
being and will return to Scott
High School where he will
play football this fall.
Gene Linscott, st. Mi
chaels, was a little too much
for Tom Carver, Local IL
boxer who was making his
fistic debut. Carver shows all
the requirements for a good
amateur, and with just a
little more gymnasium train
ing, will be hard to beat. Red
Macdonald, Local II instruc-
tor, will devote more time to
Carver.
Harold Jones, of the Sham
rock A. c., Detroit, defeated
Johnny Wozniak, Toledo, by
a TKO. Jones is one of the
best prospects seen here in a
long time and should go
places in the fistic world. He
is a shift-boxer and can hit
well with either hand. We
would like to see more of
Harold Jones.
Other bouts on the card
were: Don Prayer, st. Mi
chael's, in a close win over
