STRIBLING-VON PORAT READY Expect Sellout for Heavyweight Bout in Chicago Tonight New York, June 20.—(U.R)— Blow-by-blow description of the Otto Von Porat-Young Stribling fight at Chicago tonight will be broadcast over a nationwide radio hookup, the National Broadcasting Co., announced today. The broadcast will begin at 11 o’clock edt., with Gene House of station KYW at the microphone. Chicago, June 20.— (U.R) —W. L. Stribling, «hn still is called the "Georgia schoolboy" even though his age makes the appelation unaftplieable, will be a 6 to 5 favorite to defeat Otto Von Porat, the slugging Norwegian, when the two enter the ring before what the Chicago .stadium expects to be a capacity crowd of 23.000 tonight. Although he is going into the 10round battle with what he terms a “bruned hand." Stribling has not lost the favor of the fans. W. L. complained regarding the hand last Monday and finally succeeded 1 in getting the bout postponed from Wednesday until tonight but he was I denied further postponement when examinations and X-rays disclosed no broken bones. A veteran of some 300 fights, the Georgian is meeting perhaps the hardest puncher he ever has faced. Von Porat has achieved a reputation as a “knockout" hitter. And even though all his knockouts have been garnered over boxers below the first class it must be admitted that he can floor any man he can hit. The favoritism toward Stribling is based on that latter statement. W. L. always has fought with the id -a in mind that "yog can't be knocked out without being hit" and ' fans think that his experience and cratftiness will allow him to avoid Von Porat's “haymaking" hunches. The consensus seemed to be that Von Porat's only chance of victory is by a knockout. That chance

would seem to be small since Strib has yet to see a knockout wrote against his name. ‘ i Barring Stribling s claims of a hand injury both men are in good shape, with Von Porat the heavier by some 14 pounds. The Norweg- , ian expects to weigh around 205 while Stribling will not be heavier than IM. When the box office closed last night there were only four thousand tickets available and the stadium management was confident of a sell-out house 'of 1100,000. If Von Porat should win he of course will immediately become one of the leading heavyweight challengers. However, the bout does not mean so much to Stribling since he already is recognized as a top-notcher and a victory would seem to Im* just another victory added to his long list in the . record books. . — o New Blessing* The new electric clocks are I blessings to the man-of the house , who hits undergone the terrible strain of winding the old clock once a week.

The new players made their debut as Senators yesterday and I were the heroes of a 3 to 1 victory over Chicago. Crowder held | the Sox to 4 hits, uo two of which ' came in the same inning, while I Shires hit three singles in four I times at bat, and Manush collect- : ed two hits in three chances.
Lefty Grove enabled the Philadelphia Athletics to hold their 1% game lead over Washington and New York, pitching his team to a 4 to 2 triumph over the Cleveland Indians. G.ove allowed 11 hits while Hudlin held the champions to 8 but the Athletics’ hits were bunched when hits meant runs. The defeat dropped the Indians to fourthp lace, three games behind the leaders. New York’s Yankees kept pace with their rivals, defeating the Detroit Tigers, 5 to 4. Babe Ruth's 22nd homer of the season gave the Yanks the winning run in the 7th and left Babe only three days behind his schedule in 1927, when he hit 60 homers. Danny MacFayden turned in one of the season’s finest pitching performances, holding the St. Louis Browns to 3 hits to give the Boston Red Sox a 4 to 1 victory. Goose Goslin’s home run produced the only St. Louis run. Guy Bush, Chicago Cubs' 1929

CITIES SHOW ! HEAVY GAINS I -— Indianapolis Is 21st In Nation; Los Angeles Gains (By United Press) The nation’s ten largest cities will show a gain of more than 3,000,090 in population during the last ten years, according to figures gathered by the United Press, ’ensus returns are not complete from some of the cities but incomplete returns and estimates available indicate the growth. Chicago and Los Angeles probably will have the largest increases, the figures show. Los Angeles reported a gain of 655,057 while Chicago showed 672,048 over the 1920 figures. New York’s official count may reveal a greater numerical gain than either of these, although estimates give New York only 522,000 gain. The most notable change in the ranking of the first ten cities was made by Los Angeles, which stood

Beethoven’* Last Work It is not possible to say what was Beethoven's last composition. We find a reference, dated December 2, ' 182 G. which concerns music now preserved in the Royal library at Berlin. This Is sometimes mentioned as Beethoven's hist composiI tion. Ou March 27, 1827, the composer wrote of “a symphony completely sketched lying In my desk, as well as a new overture and other things.” This was Beethoven’s tenth symphony.—Washington Star. o — Call* for Genius The manufacture of carpets Is well known in India In the various mills, institutions, factories and Jails.

BOBBY JONES IS WINNER OF GOLF MATCH Popular American is Winner Third Time of British Open Golf Meet HAD A TOTAL SCORE FOR 291 FOR ROUNDS Hoylake, Eng., June 20. (U.R) — Bobby Jones won his third British open golf championship today with an aggregate of 291. Leo Diegel, American P. G. A. < hampion who had a chance to overtake the Atlantan in the final round, cracked at the finish. By this same total 291 Bobby Jones won his first British open .'hampionship at Royal I .ilham St. Anne’s in 1926. He won in 1927 at St. Andrews with an aggregate of 285. Jones is the first golfer to win both the Britisli amateur and open championships in a single year since John Ball turned the trick back in 1890. The Atlantan also holds the national open championship of the United States. Bobby won the present British ■hampionship with rounds of 70, 72, 74 and 75. He equalled the course record on the opening day to tie for the lead with MacDonald Smith and Hurry Cotton. The second day's play jave him a lead of one stroke over Fred Hobson, his nearest competitor. Big Archie Compston came from behind with a record breaking 68 in the third round to take the lead by a stroke but Compston, like the others, cracked this afternoon and □ones came on to win.
Diegel, who started his final round two strokes behind Bobby and three behind Compston, had a great chance to win. When Jones look a seven at the eighth hole, and Compston blew up early, all the American P. G. A. champion needed was par golf to win the title. But Leo himself took 38 to the .urn, the same figure Jones required. Diegel started his homeward pursuit in brilliant fashion but his finish came at the 16th, where be took the six that cost him his chance. Diegtii finished with a 75 for his final round, which left him two strokes behind Jones. Compston needed an 82 for his last 18 holes, and scored a 297, six strokes back of Bobby. Horton Smith was up with the leaders with 296. so that most of the glo:y and prizes of the British open championship once more went to Americans. Don Moe had 303, while F. C. Stevens, Jr., scratched after playing 16 holes of his final round. American golfers have won the British open nine out of the past ten times. Arthur Havers is the only British player to win since Jock Hutchison started the successful invasion back in 1921. Jones has won it three times, Walter Hagen four times and Jim Barnes once.
