.Lesnevich, Maxim Ey'
World Title Chance
In Bout Tonight
ey the A,soeio,sd Press

CINCINNATI, May 23.-It will
be slugger Gus Lesnevich against
fancy boxer joey Maxim here to-
night for National Boxing Asso-
citation recognition as American
light-heavyweight champion.
Also at stake in the l5-round
bout at the Cincinnati Garden will
be a possible crack for the winner
at World Light heavyweight
Champion Freddie Mills of Lon
don, England. Promoter Sam
Becker says he has a verbal agree
ment that Mills will meet the win
ner in an outdoor scrap here In
September.
Becker held fast today to his
prediction there would be a ca
pacity crowd of $4,000 and a $780,
900 gate for the show. Most OBJ
servers had some doubts. though
inasmuch as Becker and his
brother Ben held their retail
clothing store open yesterday for
sale of tickets.
Joe Vella and Jack Kearns,
managers of Lesnevich and Maxim
respectively. came up with the
same reports. 1t almost seemed
as If they were reading from the
same script as they reported each
fighter "in the best shape Of his
life and there will be no alibi If
he loses"
Maxim's only workout yesterday
was a walk. Lesnevich did even
less and then watched the Gin
cinnati-Brooklyn baseball double
header from the press box. Vella
said Lesnevich would come in to-
day at 174 pounds. Maxim figures
to be about the same.
Lesnevich, who halls from Cliff
side. N. j., may be slightly heavier
than Maxim, but he'll give away
Z years in age, 4 inches in height
and 212 inches in reach to the
Cleveland sharpshooter.
The odds held today at 6 to 5
in favor Of Maxim.
His lightning left caused lot
of trouble for Ezzard Charles here
three months ago and there were
plenty of predictions that it would
carve up Lesnevich's tender face
early and often.
On the other side of the story
was Lesnevich's potent punch.
Most of the dopesters figured Gus
would end it quickly If he could
get inside Maxim and cut loose
with one of his heavier punches.

'Kirkwood, Jr., Winner, Is Lonely in His Joy --
As Rain Hits Inqurer Open Third Year in Row
By MerrsIl Whittiesey
Ssos ssc+f Cesrsaoe~esrf

PHILADELPHIA, May 23.-In-
ouirer Golf Writer Pred Byrod,
his face as long as q par 5 hole
looked at the miserable weather
that greeted the final rounds OF
the S15.000 Open golf tournament
yesterday and said. I hope ii

Taking the conversation out OF
the first person, Byrod meant he
hoped the $4,000 Washington
Star Open July Ia at Prince
Georges escapes the rain jinx that
has marred the last three big
money events sponsored by the
Inquirer.
Each of the last three years one
day of this tournament has been
rained out, necessitating a 36-hole
windup on Sunday. And each OF
those Sundays has been a rainy
one.
The setup was perfect for q
smashing windup with two rounds
to 20. The leader. Joe kirkwood

uct. He was a comparatively new
face to the pro golf scene. He Ia

Rain Wrecks Attendance.
The Saturday predictions OF the
Sunday crowds ran from 10000
to $4,000. But see what. happened
Sunday. 1t rained all morning, a
hard, driving rain. The miracle
of the season was how the Ath-
letics and Indians ever played
baseball. The reason there was
20-odd thousand seats sold in ad-
vance.
The Inquirer tournament Is a
bigtime production. With five
years experience as golf promot-
ers,. its sponsors know all the
answers. 1t Is much better
handled tournament than the
Masters, for instance. but as Byrod
said yesterday. I'VE don't have
that long line Of cars that you
see at Augusta with everybody
paying five bucks to get in" The
rain stopped that.
There was no rain date. The
pros start the PGA in Richmond
on Wednesday and they had to
finish yesterday. The weather is
just a gamble every golf sponsor
takes.
As 1t developed the Anal day
was no contest. Young Kirkwood
had q morning 6S and with 1s
holes to 60 was nine strokes ahead
of Bobby Locke and Johnny Pal

his game would fall apart. but

They seem to have the mis-
taken idea the majority rules
In q case of this kind. They
probably never heard OF base
ball law, but they will II we
take this thing to baseball's
high commissioner"
Manager Oren Harris was
singularly unimpressed by the
Republicans distress.
II think Chandler was one
of our boys. a good Democrat,
farmed out for more expert
ence. If I recall correctly" he
said. Anyway, let them appeal
to Chandler. Let him give them
the decision. Well take 1t to

The Kirkwood victory was not
too popular with the PGA Off
