SPORTS REVIEW
 By Johnnie Stewart

Jackie Maddox whose career was interrupted for nearly four years by his tour of duty in the Army has proved that Army life does not materially affect an athlete who believes in clean liv- ing.
 Jackie has been winning reg ularly over stiff competition, his most recent being an eight round decision over tough John ny Corbett of Branford, at Nor wich last Friday night in the feature attraction of a six bout card. Jackie also gives a good account of himself on the diam ond and on basketball court.

Ernie Gomez, Bridgeport lad, currently playing for the New Britain Newfields in the New England League is one of the main reasons why the Hard ware city entry is leading the league and is considered a cinch to take the title. Having de- feated the Hartford Pros in their last two starts in games last Friday and Sunday the Newfields now sport a record of four wins and no losses.
 Gomez value lies in his team play and his jump center ability rather than shot-making. Incl dentally he is the only colored player in the league.

Billy Fox s " surprise knock out by the champ Gus Lesnevich should serve as warning to all greedy handlers and managers who attempt to build their fighters up by the stumble bum route. There is no short cut to success. We don't be- lieye that will happen in the case of George Dunn. We take this opportunity to congratulate his handlers on the way. they have brought him along so far. Dunn gets no set-ups and is giv- en stiffer competition each time out. Most important of all how ever is the fact that Georgie will listen to his handlers.

NEW YORK, July 12.-Steve Bel
loise of the Bronx evened his score
with George Abrams Of Brooklyn
when he gained a technical knock
out victory in a rather weird fistic
display at Madison Square Garden
last night.
The end came in the fifth after
he dropped Abrams for the third
time before Referee Johnny Burns
stepped in to halt the affair just as
the bell sounded ending the round.
Belloise, 15sA, bounced Abrams,
161, in the first and second rounds,
and at one time in the second, both
gladiators were on the canvas for
four seconds. Later in the same
canto when Burns stepped between
the fighters, Belloise got the idea
the fight had ended and Burns had
to instruct him to start pitching
again.

DES MONIES, Iowa, July H.
When Frank Stranahan arrives to-
morrow night for the Western
Amateur golf tournament he'll find
Marvin (Bud) Ward, his Walker
Cup teammate, waiting and ready.
The urly-haired, 34-year-old
Ward will be waiting to avenge a
narrow defeat in the 1916 Western

ready.
The Spokane ace, who lost to the
husky Toledo star in 38-hole
sizzler at Duluth, Mimi, year ago,
has been here several days getting
set for what he hopes will be an
other shot at frankie.
Bud has toured the hilly 6,426-

and yesterday he banged out a
three-under-par SO.
Ward, twice holder of the Ma
tional Amateur title and twice win
ner Of the Western, said Wakonda's
rugged course Is fine golfing test" !"
He had particular praise for the
greens-"the best I've played on this
year."
That may mean plenty next week
when Bud starts firing for keeps
because Bob Cochrane of st. Louis
remarked that 1--WE never seen him
