GARNERA WILL FIGHT TONIGHT New York. June 10 —(U.R) —ForI tunately this is a story for newspaper publication, rather than an attempt to break into the fiction I magazines. Depict Primo Camera and Pat I Redmond accurately as fiction j characters and a story picturing i them as meeting in a major New i York outdoor boxing attraction I would be rejected by any intelligent magazine editor as too fanI tastic for publication. Rut then, truth is stranger than I fiction so it can be recorded that j the 270-pound Italian and the 250- [ pound Irishman are to meet tonight in a 10-round bout at Ebbets Field. Brooklyn—the weather and Madison Square Garden permitti *T "Apparently there is little pros--1 pect of either the garden or bad weather protecting the 40.000 exi reded spec tators from their folly. The Garden would like to halt the . bout by enforcing its injunction , forbidding Camera to meet ‘tpajor’ I opponents but realizes that ackI nowledgement that Redmond is a : major foe for Primo would ruin i prospects for “steaming up" the Italian as an opponent for Young I Stribling or Max Schmeling later ■ in the season. ■ Rain may provide a temporarysalvation. hut Promoter “Jabbering Jimmy" Johnston threatens to stage the contest tomorrow, or on . the first succeeding fair evening. !if the threatening skies which greeted him this morning fail to clear in time to allow the bobt to- ■ night. Johnson vas optimistic regarding success of his first promotional venture. “Every boxing expert ! has written columns of copy telling how little ability the fighters have, and warning the public that ‘ this will le the world's worst fight." he said. “That assures a capacity crowd. The Italians will ■ come to see Camera and the poor- . er his opponent the better they'll Ibe satisfied. The Irish will be on I hand to see if any Irishman can be as lacking in fighting ability 'as Redmond is rated. "Then too. the dyed-in-the-wool fight fans always turn out when i they’ are warned in advance that I the fight will be poor. Apparently i they want to be present so that ! they can he properly indignant if i the bout is as bad as expected." Tonight's fight should provide i plenty of material for indignation, i If it is as bad as promised—and i there is no reason to believe that | it will not—even the $1 spectators i can feel that they have b?en gyppI ed and anyone foolish enough to ] pay the “tops" of $5.74 will be justified in requesting a $5 rebate. Redmond received the assignment against Camera solely leI cause Promoter Johnston wa» unI ab'e to find any other heavyweight who could not be considered a “major" opponent for Primo. Pa’ mav have been a good blacksm'th before he deserted his trade . two years ago, but there is nothing in his record to indicate that he qualified even as a tenth-rate fighter. His American record ; even includes a defeat by Jack Renault, reputed to have Ipen a success at "getting his man" as a I inemlier of the Canadian mounted II police. but an outstanding failure 11 at doing so as a boxer. , | —o Bankers In Session I Indianapolis.

BUCKY HARRIS JOINS TIGERS I New York. June 10. —(U.Pk— Bucky I Harris has returned to second base, lithe post he guarded while with the II Washington Senators, in an effort 'lto pull his Detroit Tigers out of al ■ disastrous losing streak. Harris until yesterday had not( I played a full game since 1928 when' he left the Senators, whom he had ' | piloted to a world’s championship lin 1924. When Buclt-y took over the i managerial reins of the Tigers he I announced that his active playing - days were over. -1 But injuries tti his two youthful 11 infield stars. Dale Alexander and i ■ Chafley Gerringer, forced Harris to j change his mind. He had been playing shortstop at both first and i second base and many Detroit : losses were credited to the make- • (shift infield. i j So yesterday, after the Tigers (had lost 11 of their previous 12 con--1 tests. Harris went back to his old post. But even his presence failed i to help and the Tigers lost their . fourth straight to the Philadelphia . Athletics, 12 to 3. A hit by Harris started the Tig-1 s ers off ahead in the third inning! I but the Athletics came back in! . their half of the frame to tie the (count and went on to win in the seventh and eighth innings when II they scored a total of ten runs. Be- . I sides holding the Tigers to six hits, ; Earnshaw clouted a home run. a 11 double and two singles to lead the , I Athletics' 15-hit attack against ■ ( Bridges and Hoyt. -1 Washington kept pace with the i j league leaders by trouncing the 11 Chicago White Sox. 9 to 3. Alvin ■lCrowder allowed 14 hits in regist- : I ering his fourth consecutive victory ■ ■ but was effective in the pinches. ! The Senators combined their ten hits off Pat Caraway with eight I . bases on balls to pile up a big lead.■ i No other American league coni tests played, the scheduled . games between Cleveland and New i York and St. Louis and Boston he-! ''ing postponed because of rain. The St. Louis Cardinals retained > their four and one half game lead 5 in the National league by defeating ! Brooklyn, 8 to 5, to take the tour- i game series, three contests to one. ■; The Cardinals collected IS hits off ' six Robin hurlers and were aided ■ by four Brooklyn errors. New York gained sole possession 1 of second place by turning back. 1 Chicago. 10 to 2. The defeat drop-1 ped the Cubs to third place. Mor-i ! rt-il. a rookie, held the Cubs tot 1 eight hits and was accorded good I 1 support as his mates pounded I Sweeland. Baecht and Teachout for 118 hits. Terry and Ott led the( I Giants attack with four hits each. ( 1 Chuck Klein’s 14th home run of the season with two mates on base featured Philadelphia's 7 to 3 vic- . tory over Pittsburgh. Brame, who went the route for thejPirates. allowed nine hits while three Philly hurlers yielded the same number. Benny Frey returned to the 1 mound after nearly a month's absence because of an injury to pitch the Cincinnati Reds to a 7 to 2 victory over Boston. Frey allowed ( only five hits while the Reds con-1 tinned their heavy hitting against Moss and McAfee to garner 13 blows. Yesterday's hero: George Earnshaw, who pitched and batted the Philadelphia Athletics to a 12 to 3 victory over Detroit. Earnshaw al- ( , owed the Tigers only six hits and led Philadelphia's batting attack I , tack with a home run, a double and , two single in five times to the plate.!

Final arguments were heard Tuesday afternoon and following rhe giving of instructions by Judge D. B. Erwin the case was turned over to the jury. The verdict was returned about 9 o’clock Tuesday night. It is one of the largest personal injury verdicts ever returned in this county records show.

GROUP TO MEET HOOVER NAMED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE' Plans were being speeded here today in preparation for the dinner Monday night, at which Mr. Hoover will be the honor guest and speaker. A warning to police officials to guard against communistic demonstrations during the visit here of President and Mpg.

Herbert Fletcher, acting chief of police. ! He urged that they be provided a meeting place, but prevented from interfering with the welcome planned for the president.

SEES FINISH OF DEPRESSION (CONTINUED FORM PAGE ONE) ( ■ "Tl>e curative process consists of revaluations in securities, commodity prices, land values and wages," Moore said. "There are many signs that the revaluation progress is nearing completion." “Thje stage is set for recovery," i Moore concluded. "Some signs of recovery are now growing morel definite. It is not inconceivable' that a definite bull market in . stocks might Begin within a fairly | : short time, thereby giving an op-1 timistic stimulus, long ne&led. to wholesale and retail trade."

It was revealed that six of the survivors escaped in two groups by the Davis submarine escape apara-; tus. They first reached the surface I in 1 minute and the- second in 1.95 minutes, the report said, and were picked up by warships on the scene. The other survivors were peked I up by the Yuta. Five officers and 30 men previously were reported saved but two died of injuries. Eighteen were reported missing. it was believed the missing men wefe trapped in a compartment. Unofficial!, it was hoped that the Poseidon could be raised because !it sank in comparatively shallow water. The submarine was underI stood to be lying on the bottom in 20 fathoms.
