Promised Cash Bonu!
Incentive 10 Lions; .
Pics Here Tonight

The Washington Lions have the
incentive Of a promised cash bonus
If they make a strong finish of their
Eastern League playo1 campaign
They get the dough If they finish
first or second. First is just about
out of reach for a team that's
dropped four games while winning
two, but a sweep of the three re-
manning could put it in second.
The schedule puts the Lions
against Boston tonight at Uline
Arena, against Baltimore here on
Friday and against Baltimore there
on Sunday night.
Boston's Olympics were trouble
some for the Lions all season, and
already have topped them twice in
the p1ayoffs. Tonight's game Is the
last chance the Lions have for re-
venge, and Coach Jack Riley's boys
intend to get 1t. Particularly they
want to make up for the 1877 past
ing, a horrible hockey score, handed
them in Boston two days ago.
Despite such high ideals on the
Lions part the Pics are favored.
They have the leagues one-two-
three scoring combination in BOBBY

Jones Tries Out Right
Hook, Finds Il Works
In Defeating Harris

Herbie Jones, the young District
southpaw fighter who gets better
every time, has added a right hook
TO his collection. Somewhat in
clined to be left-hand crazy in pre-
vious bouts, Herbie found it neces-
sary to try out his right last night,
and the result was pleasing all
around.
He defeated Leslie Harris Of Bal
timore in 10 rounds at Turner'S
Arena, twice flooring him for eight
counts in the fifth and seventh
Harris had beaten, lost to and
drawn with Jones in three previous
fights, but last night his main busi-
ness seemed to be in sticking around
for the finish.
Harris turned out to be switch
hitter in the last three rounds, as
suming southpaw stance that puz-
zled Jones for a minute. Herbie
soon figured that out, though, and
tried out his new right hook with
success. It's valuable addition
to his style.

have predicted that their outfits
would bring home the bacon. As
only one team title Is available,
somebody's not going to live up to

is via Fort Myers Lee boulevard en-
trance. There is no charge for serv-
icemen.
Among the teams giving a lot OF
advance consideration is the Patux-
ent River Navy Base, which has the
largest squad, 18, and cambridge
Naval Training Station, which has
sent a 12-man team. Quarters 4,
local pride and joy of Navy fight
fans, also has a chance. Army's IL
