 BuffoIo Lad For Win 1O4

Buffalo, Sept. 5-Willie Pep, worlds featherweight champion from Hartford, knocked out Walter Kolby, young Buffalo southpaw, in the fifth round of their scheduled Hereunder at Memorial Auditorium last night.
 Not even @ staunch local fav- orite with youth and a puzzling left handed stance operating in his fla vor could keep Pep from enhancing his already brilliant record of suc- cesses in Buffalo. This was the champions sixth bout here and the fifth one he has won by @ knockout. The only man to go the route with the Hartford dazzler is Jimmy Joyce. Referee Luke Carr finally stopped the uneven contest at 2:26 of the fifth with 8 badly battered and bloody Kolby still on his feet. Pep had made several futile ap- peals to the referee to stop 1t ear- Her, but Carr had ignored his pleas as the game but outclassed Kolby kept doggedly moving forward into 8 stream of cutting and bruising punches.
 F1oored Twice Twice in the fourth round Pep hoored his sturdy and willing op- ponent and the second time the bell came to Kolby's rescue. A right hand to the jaw spilled the Buffalo youth for nine and when he got up 8 one-two attack sent him sprawling on his face. He barely managed to reach his knees when the bell ending the round in terrupted the count at five. It is questionable whether Kolby would have made it.
 A crowd of $500 made up a gross gate of about $18,000 the biggest Pep has drawn in his six Buffalo appearances. The pre- vious high was the $12,O00 drawn for his bout with Mike Martyk last November.
 This was the first defeat of Kol- by's ring career. He had won 21 bouts and four of his last six were won by knockouts. Tonight, how ever, the youngster was miles over his head.
 For the fabulous featherweight champion this was the 104th vic- tory in 106 fights One lost deci- sion and one draw account for the other two. Pep weighed 131 1-2 and Kolby 135 Ia.

Roys to Box Montreal Boy

Promoter George Mulligan land ed one of the best featherweight bouts of the 1946 season for Munici- pal Stadium tomorrow night in signing Steve Kronis, Boston Greek and Jose Torres, rugged Central American scrapper, for 10 rounds.
 Both fighters gave Pat Brady stiff fights during the past month Krons opposing Dennis Patrick il, two bruiSing engagements at Hart ford while Torres took Bardy's hardest punches here a week ago in stirring session.
 Mulligan expects the Torres Kronis offering to draw well and will back up the headliner with a fine supporting card.
 s The well-balanced undercard will show several outstanding club fighters. Tn the semi-final, Earl Roys, Bristol, the New England bantamweight champion will face Jerry LaVigne, a highly touted scrapper from Montreal. They are slated for six rounds.
 In the other six-rounders, Billy Brown, Manchester collides with Kenny James, Waterbury and John Bell, New Britain takes on Al Sil- verman, New York.
 Whitey Kotz, New Britain, and Johnny Lizman of Springfield clash in the opening four.

 Annex C.Y.O. League Title

Herbie Carlone is a staunch be- liever in the adage that the game is never over until the last man is out in the last inning.
 The little right handed mound ace of SS. Peter and Paul's C.Y.O. team last night had 8 no-hit, no- run achievement in the making when with two out in the last in- ming Johnny Byrnes, St. Michael'S left fielder, slashed a single to left field to spoil his Hamilton Park performance.
 However, Carlone was the master of the situation and got "Slugger" Maxwell on tap back to the mound on the next play to end the game and give the East Finders 6 to o triumph and the championship of the Catholic Youth Organization. Stellar fields plays had pre- served Carlone's no-hitter until the seventh. Win Pica made a sensa- tional, running catch of Ryan's drive to deep center in the third inning and again in the fifth he backed up a play at second base and made a putout on Maxwell who overslid the bag.
 Rev. John Sullivan's boys scored twice in the opening inning, Don Synnot's single chasing Beccia and Pica across the plate. They added four more in the fourth on four singles, sacrifice and 8 fields choice. Carlone. Geary, Skelly and Boisvert contributed the base hits.
 Carlone famed II and walked but one man while Bob and Dick McAree who, shared the hurling for the losers struck out seven. Dick walked two while his brother, Bob, had perfect control.

Cardinals Expect Munger
 To HurI Them To Pennant

New York, Sept. B. UP) The big guy took long time getting here, but George Munger finally ar rived today. And as Manager Eddie Dyer of the Cardinals said, if there is any one player who can bring the National League pennant to St. Louis this year it is the fast-balling righthander from Houston, Tex
 Dyer has been babying Big George along ever since he got out of the Army two weeks ago. First the tall Texan was given relief pitching job against the Dodgers, Aug. 18th; then another relief job against the Giants three days later. Dyer finally started him last Sunday, only Nun ger-one of the Cardinals brightest prospects in 1944-wasn't ready and the Pirates knocked him out in the sixth inning.
 But with 5outhpaw Ace Howie Pollet In bed because of fever, Dyer called on Munger last night in 8 crucial spot. And he poured his fast stuff across the plate for the full nine innings to cool oil the hot Chicago Cubs, 8 to l, and keep the Redbirds two games ahead of the second-place Dodgers who defeated Boston, 3 to 1.
 19A4 Record Super
 The ball looked as fl it were streaking out of the sky as Munger stretched his full six feet, two in- ches before whistling 1t past the Cubs with the same stuff he had in 1924 when he ran up II victories and the lowest earned run average in the league. 1.S4, before going into the service.
 The Cardinals didn't even miss the ailing Pollet as Munger struck out seven and didn't walk man. His teammates backed him up with 2 14-hit barrage against three Cub pitchers, knocking out Fordham Hank Borowy in the fifth inning with a six-run uprising.
 The Cubs, who had been playing the hottest ball in the National League, winning at 6 .772 clip since Aug. 1T, made only six hits, scoring an unearned run in the fifth. Al Schoendienst. who got four hits during the game. opened the big fifth for the Cardinals with a double. Munger singled with the bases loaded during the rally and then Schoendienst-up for the sec ond time in the inning-singled of of reliefer Ray Prim for the final run.
 Pollet had been scheduled to bid for his 10th victory of the cam paign, but was ordered to bed when physicians discovered he was run

Kissko Faces Maryland g T.odoyAt5
nv JOHN Al. CLUNEY

Harrisburg, Penn. Sept. 5.--Still hubbling over with confidence and determination brought by their scintillating success in a first test in the All American Amateur Base ball Association tournament, Wa terbury Franc Americans, 21-3 winners of a seven-inning game Wednesday, were ready and willing for their third round bid against Elkton, Maryland Susquehannas this afternoon at st Millersburg field, 25 miles from downtown Har- riSburg.
 TorrinNton's strong-armed Mike KisSko, a dependable right-hander was Manager "Skeets" LeBlanc's pre-game selection to pitch against the second Maryland team the City Amateur League champions will meet on successive days.
 AS far as could be unofficially verified, the Franco-Americans set a tournament record for scoring when they came from behind a three run first inning lead ny Spring Grove, Md, to pile up 20 runs in the first six innings ot the game.
 Big Bill Kufta, 200 pound New Britain pitcher, third sacker Bernie ShembriskaS and centerfield Jlm- my Piersan were the heavy h1tters, Kufta driving in five runs. With two doubles and single, giving but six hits in less than six in- nings, flaming six and giving an altogether great performance atter a shaky first inning, in which walk, misplay and home run put him three runs behind.
 PiersalI's first inning triple for the Frances was the hitting spark that helped send Lefty" Johnny Lebrou to the showers before the Spring Grove southpaw had seen three putouts made by his mates.
 Played on a hardpan high school field not at all suitable to tourna- ment baseball, the game produced six errors for the 1943 Maryland state champions while no misplays were scored against the win- ners from Waterbury; which was one of several oddities of the game which also included the 20 run seven inning total and 8 starting catcher going in as the fourth of five pitchers. He, in turn was followed by the shortStop who tried his mound luck after he had hit a first inning three-run homer off Kufta's delivery.
 Waterbury and E1kton. Md, teams paired today are undefeated each having won one game played while each also had the benefit of 8 rbye".
