|. R. A. Tennis FinuIs Sept. 22

The IRA. Tennis Finals sched- uled for September 18th have been set back one week and will be play ed Sunday September 22nd due to a foot injury of George Brundage U. s. Time flnalist.
 George Dietz of Waterbury Con- panies and Walter Dean, Top seed- ed player for Scovill will meet to- morrow in the remaining semi final match.
 Dean won over John Allen of American Brass by a score of 60, GA in quarter finals match We'd nesday.
 In the doubles event Bill Wills and James Mullen of Scovill will match up against George Brund- age and Bill Fleming the later part of next week while Clifford Lytle and William Wolcott of Scovill will play John ad Roger Makepeace of Scovill in the other semi final match.
 Due to the fact that the set back of a week has interrupted the plans for the state by industrial cham pionships scheduled for Stamford September 21st, the tournament committee has awarded the Scovill team the honor of representing Wa terbury by virtue of the number of matches won and number of men still in the local championship.
 Walter Dean will be one of the singles entries while the other sim gles and doubles match will be de- cided by playoff of the Scovill players. &

Tlvo-Ton-Tony Tells Tan1iHow To Beat Louis

Orange, N. J., Sept. 13-CUP)- Fat Tony Galento beloved today this advice for fat Mauriello: For get about the bob-and-weave. Go in there throwin' punches in your natural style Wednesday night, and you'll knock Louis out.'
 Galento smacked expert opinion right on the lug when he added, If I hadn'ta tried the bob-and-weave against Louis, Ida belted him out"
 This thunderous heresy almost bowled over a pop-eyed reporter who was interviewing the two tonner" in his ornate Orange taV- ern. For seven long years the ex- perts had been crediting Galento's great performance against Cham pion Joe Louis to the fact that Tony had used the b-andweave for a night
 Could Escape Punishment
 Galento, elegant in a checkered blue sports shirt of Ringing pro portions, leaned across the bar and continued:
 Because of my built, I wasn't never a bobber- and-weaver. But my handlers said my only chanst against Louis was to keep bent down and to come in weavin' and throWin' hooks outta a crouch. That was the only way could keep from gettin all cut up, they said.
 Well, the only good punches l landed on Louis that night wuz when forgot all about the crouch, and jumped in and socked him in the puss. Then my handler'sd yell at me, Careful! careful!' and I'd remember to bob and weave instead of keepin' right. after him and knockin' his brains out.
 If Ida gone in there and fought my own fight, like wanted'ta, .'da moidered the bum. And if the wise guys handlin' Mauriello will lay off'en him, and let him fight his own fight, he'll moider Louis But he won't if he goes in there thinkin they're tryin' to make him do. He shouldn't be thinkin about Louis hittin him; he should just be thinkin' about hittin' Louis." I Galento, who disliked Louis cor dlally because Joe never would give him a return bout, declared that 23-year-old Mauriello has the equip ment to beat Louis If he'll only use it. He said he had seen Tami fight several times, and that he shapes up as good puncher with either flst-a fast puncher. He declared that Louis, even at his peak, stunned early when hit by punch CT; and that now, at 32 and after five years without a hard fight, Ines ready to be taken by the first hard-punchin' youngster who'll give him the woiks"
 Round Tony tried to wrest the title from Louis at Yankee Stadium on the night of June 28, 1889, Re- gardleSs of what the fat man did before or after the fight, his brawl with the Brown Bomber must still be applauded as the most thrilling pugilistic spectacle staged since Jack Dempsey met Luis Firpo in 1923. Galento had Louis groggy in the first round; the champ f1oored Tony in the second; Galento floored Joe in the third; and Joe butchered him in the fourth.

Quick, Ted
 BishopCIoss |OfAmoteur
By STEVE SNYDER United Press Sports Writer

Springfield, N. J., Sept. 13 - (UP) Two veteran campaigners met pair of unknowns in the 36-hole semi-flnals of the U. s. Amateur Golf Championship today and the odds all were with Smiley Quick of Inglewood, Calf, and Ted Bishop of Dedham, Mass, who have been around long time.
 Quick, national public links champion and one of the favorites from the start, teed of against 34- year-old Fred Hammer of Crosse Pointe Farms, Mich, Detroit's city champion.
 Back in the semi-finals for the second straight time, Bishop hook ed up with Bob Willits of Kansas City, a complete unknown in tour nament golf although he led the na- ton in sectional qualifying trials with 137.
 They're all who remain after the second day of double round sudden death" 18-hole matches which cleaned out both brackets of every pre-tournament favorite but quick and quickly.
 Duration Champion Marvin (Bu0 Ward of Spokane, Wash, and Dick Chapman, the 1940 cham pion from Mamaroneck, N. Y, both were bounced in the third round yesterday morning.
 Capt. Cary Middlecoff of Mem phis, favorite dark horse of the players themselves, bowed out in the afternoon against Hammer, 5 and 4.
 Bishop, a 33-year old ice cream salesman who was playing pro at the age of 18, before his reinstate- ment had field day as the field was sliced from 16 to four.
 He eliminated Chapman, and 1, and came back in the afternoon with an easy 4 and 3 victory over young Charley Lind of Denver who had upset Ward in the morning, l up.
 Quick had to work hard to stay in the running, travelling 19 holes before he whipped Alpheus Winter of Bridgeport, Conn, up and an- other 18 to defeat the veteran Mau- rice Mccarthy of Cincinnati, l up.
 Willits ploughed through the weakest quarter of the draw, gain ing his right to meet Bishop by de- feating Gordon Park of Glen Ridge, N. J., up and Bob Sweeny, the American born Briton and former wing commander in the Royal Air Force, and 2. Willits, five years in the Navy and former commander of group of landing craft in the Pacific, is the youngest semi-finalist of the lot-28.

Captain of the Yale team for the 1946 season is Richard M. (Dick) Hollingshead, III, of Riverton, N. J. who will be the Eli's sixty-Seventh gridiron leader. Hollingshead is, a tackle, and mighty good one, and he has been one of the major fac- tors in the Yale football successes these past two years. Hollingshead is living example of the old adage that determination is a valuable quality and two years ago he was just a down. line scrub. He re- ceived his chance to play as reg ular in the middle of the 1914 un- defeated season when Westi Han sen was shifted from Yale by the Navy. Since that time, Holly" has played almost sixty minutes of every Yale contest. He is defen- sive bulwark and when Yale has the ball if he is blasting gaping holes in enemy lines he's busy cut ting down halfbacks with his unique but effective roll block. Dick is a big fellow, six feet, two inches, weighs just a shade under 210 pounds and is 22 years old He pre- pared for Yale at LaWrencevhle. Hollingshead's big thrill was play ing in the East-West game last New Years Day and he was one of the standout performers of the game.

This Sporting World
Barney Was A Broiny Boy
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

Because of his premature grey hair, Barney (RosofSky) Ross, for. mer worlds lightweight and welter. weight champion, now an admitted drug addict hoping for a cure would make you wonder if you coulc be looking as the flashing young man who was a principal in two o1 the greatest ring battles I ever saw the party of the second part being none other than the north Ireland knocker outer, Jimmy McLarnin now past 40 years of age.
 Some two years ago, Barney
 Ross came to Waterbury one day
 for the assigned purpose of pep pining up local war production;
 came here for the same reason
 that Hank Greenberg visited U. s.
 Time plants locally and in Mid
 dlebury for 8 few hours; WI , he
 was still in the air force. Ross, on
 the day that he came up from New
 Haven to the Waterbury Tool
 plant was a rather striking fig
 ure, in his U S. Marine corporaps
 uniform, with red, white and blue
 ~1" shoulder patch tagged Guard
 alcanal." A little guy physically,
 but smart, intelligent and a good
 conversationalist; Barney talked
 about boxing bit at the Country
 Club of Waterbury, where lunch
 con was arranged in his honor;
 and, among other things, told me
 that he was under almost con-
 stant pain and pressure from re-
 curing illness from malaria, con-
 tracted in the South Pacific, where
 he was credited with killing 9
 Japs one night and saving the
 lives of five Marine comrades. I
 have since met returned vets who
 scoffed at the story; though Ross
 has been awarded the Silver Star
 by the late president Franklin
 Delano Roosevelt.
 Imported brandy, in prescribed daily doses, was used to comfort hin at the time of his Waterbury visit though he has since admitted ht used morphine as relief, for migraint headaches, having been introduced to the drug by medical corpsmer after he had contracted malaria a Guadalcanal with the First Marine division. Voluntarily giving himsel over to Army medical authorities and submitting to the added disgrace of arrest so that he can get into { Kentucky hospital for immediate treatment; Ross has just about TUT the gauntleA of human misery ant emotion; though he is far from { hopeless case at this time. What am tryin to say, is that he is show ing the same courage in his sat plight, as he showed in the ring; fo no one can every say Barney wa anything but a dead-game boy wht had the ring skill of Corbett ant the lion heart of a John L. Sullivan in his 135 pound frame; which i why he now has mort of the man, friends he made when he was on tn, top rung of the fistic ladder.
 His father lay shot dead befor his eyes, when Barney was only years old; he probably has neve forgotten the sight; directly after stickup in 8 Chicago store; but h. made success of his life until tn last two year or so, and is now wa casualty who may yet be remade in to the smiling, affable, virile youn, man his friends have known in tn golden days of the ring. Let's hop so; for no one deserves 8 break more than Barney Ross, as much o credit to his people as Joe Loui Is to the Negro race: in and out o the ring.

Martin Us. AndreuUs For W. E. Title

Boston, Sept. l3 - (UP) - New England Welterweight Champion Georgie Martin of Boston lays his title on the line tonight in a 12- round bout with Dave (Golden Boy) Andrews of Lowell at Boston Gar den for the second regional cham pionship bout here in a week.
 Winner of eight straight bouts since his discharge from the Navy, Martins main worry apparently is his ability to make the 147-pound limit. A veteran of nine-years ring service, Martin is slight favorite over the younger Andrews who has climbed into prominence since his discharge from the armed forces last year.
 An eight-round semi final and three six-round bouts will complete the Goodwin A. c. show.

The Standing

The largest group of bowlers to ever represent Blake ana Jonn- son Bowling league ushered In tne 1o46-47 season at Sena'S Recreation Alleys last Friday evening. Harold White, Sr., and Eddie Downs, com pany officials, sent the 1O-team CIT cult on its way by throwing the first balls, and Lefty Downs showed his supporters he has lost none ol his southpaw skill by outdoins MT White.
 Ernie Hallenborg's Machinists stole the first nights show by sweeping a three-game set from Fluffy Skilton's Inspectors who were expected to be a hot-shot club. Well, Skilton couldn't get that Buffalo motion into action, Coughlin was there in person only, and Longo and Facondini were hot for the winners. As a result, the Machinists are the leagues first leaders.
 Ray Single was in Benny Stokes hair all night as he paced the Slot ters to a 2-1 win over the Headers. Rays 374 was two pins better than the fat boys 372. It was also the best set of the evening. Stokes has his old sidekick, Bill German, with him again this year. This will make Germans umpty-umph time n at- tempting to get on a winning team Boom boom also introduced Miss Atomic Blonde of 1946 in Margaret Mair. who is just now lacking Tn experience but before the seasons s end will be up there with the rest of the girls.
 The Automatics, paced by Mike Mendillo and Bill Becker, packed too much wallop for the Packers; Nick Colangelo's Threaders edged out the Clerks and Cliff Vests Blankers bowled over the Rollers, all by 2-1 margins
 CHOPS AND SPLITS: Barbara Tripp, one of our new bowlers. looks like the girl to beat for high aver age. Google Gugliotti threw his 79 average in the ashcan as he pre- dlcted and helped put the damper on the Headers. Fourteen ex- serv1cemen were in the respective linups George Cipriano, the Prospect squire who is an expert on rabbits and horses, was a little stiff from recent rodeo exhibition and couldn't get his hook ball work ing until the final game. We don't know if Stokes and Rogers got together for ice cream after bowling as they used to last season we'll have to tail 'em this week, to see.
