Cox Stops Keller With One Punch; O’Dowd, Zwick Next

One swallow may not make a summer, but one wallop in the proper place can make a floor mat out of a classy boxer. Tracy Cox proved this Tuesday night at the Armory when he nailed Babe Keller, Toledo junior lightweight, with* a right to the jaw that put the Buckeye battler out for keeps after less than two minutes of the first round. Cox caught Keller off guard and like a flash his powerful^ight dynamited against Babe’s jhw. Keller flopped in his tracks and was out for several minutes. The end was as unexpected as it was spectacular. Both boys opened cautiously and the local youth’s whisker-duster was the first sound wallop of what had promised to be a close battle. Cox’ stock took a decided turn upward after his quick work. Opening with a slashing fourrounder, the prelim card was above the average. Only the six-rounder between Red Holloway and Tommy O’Connell of Ft. Wayne proved a disappointment. O’Connnell didn’t

Bruce Britt also fought an uphill battle, finishing strong in the fourth round to cop an edge over Roy Nidy of Lawrefifeville, 111. It was another slugging bee, as was the opener between Frankie Sansone and George Downey, in which the latter gained a slight edge. Chick Calloway and Joe Napolitano of Kokomo fought a comparatively slow fourrounder, with the former slightly in front. Next Tuesday’s card will be topped by a ten-rounder between Midget Mike O’Dowd, Columbus, and Phil Zwick, Cleveland, prominent featherweights.

son, a semi-pro, are the only infield acquisitions. Marquardt batted .324 in the Southern League. Just how the infield will shape up is somewhat of a mystery. There has been a rumor that Jack Rothrock, who has been an outfielder for two years will be tried at third base again. Reeves and Regan wil fight it out at second with Bill Sweeney working regularly at first. This would leave the shortstop job up to competition among Warstler, Rhyne and Miller. Marquardt, with Warstler the favorite, will sub either at second or third. Boston will have good pitching in 1931. In adition to Danny MacFayden, Milton Gaston, Horace Lisenbee, Jack Russell, Ed Durham and Ed Morris, the Red Sox have acquired Wiley Moore, hurling hero of the New York Yankees in 1927; John Brillheart, veteran southpaw, who had eighteen victories to hi* credit at Mineapolis; Bob Kline, who won twenty-three and lost nine for Erie in ’3O, and Walter Murphy, a youngster from Rock Island. The catching department will be looked after even more capably than in 1930, for in addition to Charley Berry, who did most of the backstopping last year and Joe Connelly, who looks like a great prospect, Bob Quinn has signed Muddy Ruel, veteran catcher from Washington.
