20,000 TO SEE WALKER, LEVINSKY IN CHICAGO RING TUSSLE

Mickey Is Favorite Veteran Irish Boxer Is 7-to*s Choice Despite Handicaps. BY GEORGE KIRK^EY t mted Press IMiff Corrrpnndrnt CHICAGO, April 29.—The ring's bravest little warrior. Mickey Walker, a modern version of Stanley Ketchell. will give away weight, height and reach, to say nothing of years, and attempt to whip King Levinsky, the crude but dangerouc Chicago clown, in a ten-

round heavyweight bout in the Chicago stadium tonight. The spectacle of the chunky little Irishman, outweighed about twenty - eight pounds, four and a half inches shorter in height, with an inch and a half disadvantage in reach and almost eleven

years older, charging into his bigger Jewish opponent wil! attract nearly 20.000 persons and approximately *75,000. During his nearly twelve years in the ring. Walker has held the welterweight and middleweight titles and is bidding for a thanee at the heavyweight championship. He laced a handicap of even greater proportions last summer when he held Jack Sharkey to a fifteenround draw. Four weeks of hard tr,..ning apparently havr whipped Mickey hark into fighting trim, and he was held a 7-to-5 favorite today. He expects to weight 171. a pound more or lews, and Levtnsky will scale 198 or more. Walker will be 32 in July and Levtnsky just has passed 21. Never much of an artistic success in the ring. Levtnsky has developed a tremendous following because of his unorthodox style, hi* wild swings, his constant attempt tc land his dynamite right and his willingness to fight. Levinsky and Walker each will receive 30 per cent of the net receipts, which will amount to about *IB.OOO. BLUE NETTERS WIN K'l Timet Special MUNCIE. Ind., April 29.—Butler tennis team blanked Ball State here Thursday, sweeping the four singles and two doubles patches. Butler played Indiana State at Terre Haute today.

Studebaker Enters Five Cars in ‘soo’ The largest and ir.oe-t pretentious factory racing team since the World war was announced officially today for the international 500-mile i race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 30, with the nomination of five cars by the Studebaker corporation.

In striking contrast to R. Clifford Durant's private enterprise in 1923 when he entered five specially-built race cars at an estimated trackside cost of *125.000. the Studebaker semi-stock jobs are said to have been built for *2.500 each. Other manufacturers are expected to enter before the entries close on May 2, and the interest in the race this year will be greatly increased by factory competition The lifting of the piston displacement requirements two years ago to 366 cubic inches, to include entry of j stock motors, has brought popular passenger cars back into the out-

Big Three Hurlers Fail and A’s Fall to Seventh; Cards in Cellar

BY JACK CUDDY t'nlled Prm Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. April 29—Failure of the three mighty pitchers, whose work impelled the rush of the Philadelphia Athletics to their three successive American League pennants, seems the outstanding reason for the As slide to the seventh rung in their circuit. Connie Mack has depended on George Earnshaw, Lefty Grove and

Rube Walberg. He has started them in ten of the dozen games played this season. But they have lost seven of those ten. In two other games, four Philadelphia hurlers paraded each time to the mound. They lost once and won once. The individual performances of this trio place
