Playing the Field
' With Billy Evans ■■"■a ILL Jim Maloney or Jack Ya/ Sharkey get a chance at Gene Tunney's crown? These two Boston heavyweights are now rated among the leading
contenders for the heavyweight championship. They are to meet in New York on May 19 in one of the many heavyweight eliminations that Tex Rickard is staging. One of them is certain to go into the discard. Jim Maloney, by

Evans
Ins surprising victory over the colorful Jack Delaney, has won for himself a large following over the country. But what about the hometown folks and their opinions? yhere is no place where one can get the low-down on a sport celebrity as in his home town. FAMOUS INCHING CIRCLES fT”r| MPIRING in Boston while the 111 the national amateur ring I ■ championships were being staged, I made it a point to take in the battles between the simonpures and saw some great milling. Around the ringside I bumped into many of the leading fistic characters in New England. This section, by the way, always has been noted for the classy ringmen it turns out. At present Red Chapman, HoneyBoy Finnegan, Johnny Vacca and AI Mello are just a few of the prominent title contenders in the various classes. It struck me that a canvass of the opinions of the fight experts who were familiar with the ability of Maloney and Sharkey would be of more than passing interest. • I found tho Sharkey supporters far outnumbered those who believed Maloney had a chance. The impression seems to be that Sharkey has Maloney’s number. In other words, Maloney is made to order for Sharkey for many reasons,- one of which deals with psychology. LIKE SHARKEY’S CHANCES “ l HARKEY is a cocky, aggressivc fellow, while Maloney ... is just the opposite,” was the way a well-knovfn Boston manager put It. “In two meetings between them Sharkey has had a dicided edge. He recalls it with a boast, while Maloney also seems to remember It rather vividly, “Sharkey thinks he is the greatest fighter in the world. Maloney Is a much better fighter than he really thinks he is. It has taken much persuasive talk on the part of Maloney's manager to impress it on him.” On all sides I heard Sharkey's courage commended and while no one accused Maloney of lacking “guts,” still the inference that one would naturally get from the conversation was that Sharkey would carry on farther than Maloney if hard pressed. So if you are willing to take the opinion of the home town folks in Boston, Jim Maloney is in for a trimming when he plashes with Jack Sharkey.

Arthur K. Carr, president of the Indianapolis Amateur Baseball eociation, announced today that while the Indians were on the road the feature amateur game each Saturday would be played at Washington Park.

While the golf matches will not draw thousands to urge the players to their utmost efforts, it is certain that with the feeling of “win or lose,” on their minds, the ninetysix players who make up the league teams will strive to enjoy the fruits of victory. The first foursome will tee off at 1 p. m. with the Optimists and Service Clubs leading the parade. The remaining foursomes will start at ten minute intervals thereafter.

George Young, an expert at constructing and maintaining pitting greens, will have charge of ,the school. Any person interested in golf greens is invited. Kokomo has anew municipal golf course under construction. Sunday a delegation of Kokomo citizens and L. W. Penniman and Charles Love, members of the park board, made a survey of the South Grove course seeking data on the operation of a public links. Both said they had made extensive inquiries and learned from every source that the Indianapolis municipal courses were the best in the country. School teachers continue to seek the golf links as a place of recreation. Miss Rixie Zerpas is one of file Jatest to join Billy Moore’s class at South Grove. Frank Rice of the Dodge Bros, auto agency had a tough time keeping out of the “jolly old rough” while teaching Bob Ricketts.

TIES DOLBLEsVtECORD Bn Timet Special MILWAUKEE, May 4.—Poling four doubles in Tuesday's game with Columbus, Outfielder Wilson of Milwaukee tied the A.

! Tribe Held Idle Tuesday; Eastern Teams Picking Up Ground. ! Bu Times Special ST. PAUL, May 4.—The Indians | of Bruno Betzel are having a tough ; time becoming acclimated. They ! have seen very little sunshine since 1 the A. A. season opened and some of the veterans are longing for warm | days. They enjoyed only three days I of good weather while at home and j this road trip has failed to produce improvement. Rain and cold weather held the , athletes Idle In St. Paul Tuesday and another double-header was added to the growing list that means much work for the pitchers later. Close With Saints The Tribesmen were to wind up the series with the Saints here this afternoon and tonight the Betzel pastimers will be cn route to Kansas City to open a round of battles with the Blues Thursday. It looked like Leverett and Zahniser would bo the pitchers at Is?xington Park today and the contest was to decide the series winner owing to the fact the Indians won Sunday and the Saints Monday. The clubs representing the eastern half of the A. A. circuit are beginning to claw back at their western rivals and the race is beginning to tighten. The lowly Senators developed a punch at Milwaukee Tuesday and walloped the Brewers while at Kansas City the Toledo Hens slaughtered the Blues. Louisville and Minneapolis. like Indianapolis and St. Paul, were knocked out by bad weather. Millers Flop The fall of the Millers has reached a point where it is becoming funny. Kelley's crew won eight games in a row and them dropped seven consecutive battles. If the Millers lose the next one they will be even with the board “going down." A popular topic of discusssion among the Indians concerns the play#r limit and “who is going to get the gate.” on or before June 1, when club rosters spiust be trimmed to twenty. The team is one over the limit and one of the outfielders or one of the pitchers must depart. FRIDAY MAT PROGRAM I-ouls Miller, San Francisco wres- I tier, who meets Jack Reynolds at I the Phy-Cul Club Friday night, will go to the mat lacking by far the speed of Reynolds, but will have in his favor a slight weight advantage.

Comer had high single game, a 220, in his middle effort. Low georing again featured the State tourned at South Bend, none of the leaders being threatened by the total secured. The pins are hard to knock down, and we believe the present high marks will withstand the final efforts of the various teams this week. Joe Falearo. the “kid” from the Bronx. New York, who is well known to loeal bowlers, visited Chicago last week and rolled a couple of matches at the Garfield alleys. To prove he still is on his game in his ten-game match with Andy Peterson, he secured the following scores: 211. 221. 221. 234, 194. 234, 207, 207, 259 and 204 for a total of 2,252, an average of 225 per game.

Bu United Press CHICAGO, May 4.—Bud Taylor and Tony Canzoneri today retained their reputations as the best bantamweights in boxing and logical opponents in a bout to settle the title in that division. Taylor scored a decision over Abe Atell Goldstein, ex-champion, although the decision was booed by tho fans, and Canzoneri won a technical knock iut over Ray Ryehell in the seventh round Tuesday night. Goldstein punched Taylor hard. Abe scored a knockdown with a right cross in the first round and kept punishing tho Terre Haute boy throughout the light. It was the judges opinion, however, that. Taylor hit the "old clothes man" oftener if his blows were not as telling. Most sport writers gave each of the boys four rounds and scored the other two even. Canzoneri battered Ryehell until he was out on his feet in the seventh and then asked Referee Dave Miller to stop the fight. Ryehell, who is the best of the local bantams, was no match for the slugging Italian. EABLHAM COACH Bu Times Special .

Gasoline Gallop Promises Usual Excitement Before and During Struggle. ELEVEN FRONT DRIVES By Eddie Ash I* t | HE entry list for the fifteenth j I running of the international j * | 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is closed at forty-one cars—eleven more than announced in The Times Tuesday. This is the largest list since 1919. This does not mean forty-one speed wagons will start in the long grind, however, because the machines must be sent through qualifying tests first, and the thirty-three fastest will face tlie starter’s flag Monday, May 30, providing that many measure up to requirements. Activity in Numbers Bj#: regardless of the number that fail, the huge entry list assures a big field and plenty of activity at the Speedway during tuning-up days. Nearly all the famous pilots are certain to be on hand and the gasoline gallop will create the usual excitement before and during the event. The fact that eleven front-drive cars are entered gives the motor classic an added kick, especially when it is noted that this type of mount will be driven by such noted experts as Pete De Paolo, Harry Hartz, Dave Lewis, Leon Duray, Earl Cooper, Peter Kreis and Bob McDonough. Some More New Ones Young drivers are prominent in the entry list and railbirds will give particular attention to the youthful talent. Only one year ago Frank Lockhart took the veterans “for a ride” in the Hoosier event and set a pace that brought him victory in a curtailed race. And Frank will appear on the bricks this year guiding a Miller Special. A French Bugatti wUI be sent out to strive for the big money with George Fernic, Bouinanian, at the wheel. It is the only European ear included. Six sturdy Duesenbergs, the "home grown” product, will be among the speed creations seen going after positions in the trials.

LOUGHRAN Hands Stribling Decisive Beating in Brooklyn Ring. Bu United Press BROOKLYN, May 4.—Jack Delaney, light heavyweight champion, was the real winner at tlie first outdoor boxing show of the eastern season here Tuesday night, although he did not enter tlie ring. Tommy Loughran, Philadelphia, and Young Stribling, ihe once sensational Georgian, were the battlers, and what they showed didn’t give Delaney any cause for worry over their ambitions to take" his title. Loughran scored an easy victory over the erratic Atlanta boy but he didn’t look much like a championship candidate. The fight probably ended Stripling's last pretensions to a place among the first raters. The Georgian won only one round or possibly two and Loughran had a clear edge in five. The others were even.
