LOS ANGELES, June 3d.
Emory (Bubba) Church, the for
mer major league pitcher with
an engaging Southern drawl and
a sense of humor to match, was
discussing the trials and troubles
of his profession and his firm
determination to get back into
the big leagues.
The handsome young man
from Birmingham was recently
shipped down the river from the
Chicago Cubs to Los Angeles.
He pitched the distance last
night as the Angels beat San
Diego, 1914. That put his rec
ord at 3 wins and 2 losses since
joining the coast league club.
Bubba and his wife Peggy,
the beautiful coed he met and
won when they attended Louisi-
ana State University, have
acquired an acute diStaste for
travel, but they are not only
willing. but are aiming. at one
more long haul-the trip back

OF Beating Martinez
By the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, June 30.-Art
(the Golden Boy) Aragon was
due on the fight scene from the
solitude of his mountain train
ing camp today and sent word
that he is in top shape for his
1O-round scrap tomorrow night
with Vince Martinez of Pater-

The local welterweight pride,

old Vince has had all the play
in the past 10 days on the Los
Angeles sports pages.
The two battle in an outdoor
show at Gilmore Field. The af-
fair will not be televised or

Martinez remains the betting
favorite at 8 to 5, mainly off his
7-round knockout over Chuck
Davey May &c. Last February
Aragon won a split decision over
Davey-a verdict that few but
Aragon and two officials thought
was correct.
Martinez has trained well and
his manager, Bill DAILY, conf

Aragon and later wind up in a

"IIl knock him out in tlve

Four Healthy Purses
Bring Out Top Horses
Al Laurel RaceWaY

Laurel Raceway. getting ready
to close its current meeting Fri
day night, puts some of its best
horses out on the track in whole
sale lots tonight with two $2,250
divisions of the Elkridge Pace. a
$1,000 trot and a $1,000 pace.
The Engineer, with Ed Kelly
driving, is among the stars Of
the seventh race, the second di-
vision of the Elkridge. This 4
year-old gelding has six wins
and one second in his eight starts
this year. Date Knight and
Mothers Girl, both winners in
their last starts. are among the
opposition.
The first division of the Elk
ridge may have Joe Eyler'S L. T.
Eden, a winner both at Rosecroft
and Laurel, as the choice. Mac
Forbes, a brother of Hi-Lo's
Forbes, is in this one, too.
The $1,000 pace. the eighth
race, will find Freddy Chief after
his fourth straight win, while the
$1,000 trot, the fifth race, brings
out such familiar names as South
Broadway, Blue Jacket and Irene
Gallon.
Laurel fans last night saw a
new Maryland State record for
a Swear -old when The Tippler
won the featured $4,000 Touch
down Club pace in 2:0245. This
was his second rtart of the sea-
son after breaking and finishing
eighth in his first one, and he
almost was overlooked by the
bettors. He went away 14-to-1
shot and returned $3.50, 1920
and $7.2O.
AS compared to this. the daily
double IL combination of Dick
Case in the first race and Ethel
Day in the second was hardly
worth playing. It returned only
$3.50, lowest Of the meeting.

AS she spoke Of the angels
