Talking IT OVER BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, July 4.—This is an in-the-bag-column for me. I mean that whenever Independence day rolls around, which, strangely is once a year, even under Hoover, I get to thinking what a great fight day it used to be. Maybe it is my spiritual curiosity. I don't know vet whv the old timers Picked out the Fourth to settle their fistic difference* Here, of late, the routine has changed. You practically never have a nght of conseuuence on this particular day. This is a matter that is quite bewildering. Do vou think that Senator Hooev Long of Louisiana could explain it? There Is a guv for vou. When the senator Keti through in Washington I hope th<; Yankees sign him. Asa third ba>e coacn he would make both Altrock and Schacht look vetv dull indeed. But let's studv the fight card for to-jav—-what do vou see? Baer against LCvinskv in Reno. This would be a dime-a-dozen fight except for the fact that Jack Demosev is promoting it. And I have a hunch that this is the last time our Demosev ever will attract anv national attention as a promoter— especially with an ordinary fight. a a a FAME is a fickle thing. It lasts Just so Jong. Our Dempsey started the year with a tour, the announced purpose of which was a comeback test. Our Dempsey knocked over a lot of rubber-legged guys that didn't belong in the same ring with a fair second-rater. The gates were big -Nobody begrudged our Dempsev that. He was a great guv when he had it—and he was trying to come hack. His first start was to be against Prinio Camera and I still think he can flatten him with a raised eyebrow This was to be on July the Fourth. After that he was to take on the winner of the Selimeling-Sharkev fight in September l have come reluctantlv to the conclusion that it is all a eag and that our Demotev did not intend to gel hack into th ring at all. Here It Is Julv t and Is our Demosev n *.!!? rma? What s more, is he savinc anything about fighting either Sharkey or Schmeling in Seotember? ana YOU may say that he found out he wasn’t so good when he couldn’t handle Levinsky in Chicago. And I ask you: Isn’t that the logical way to end a push-over tour? I'm not prejudiced or crochety. My grouch is that there is nobody I would rather go back than our Dempsey. I merely state that I think he took us all for a nice long buggy ride. 'So much for that. ~ Our,, Uempsev’s fight on the Fourth '"ean anything.

TRIBESMEN LAND ON TOP AS HOME STAND CLOSES
Hoosiers Nose Out Louisville in Five Extra Stanzas on Sabbath
Colonels Come From Behind Only to See Men of McCann Take Game and League Lead in Fourteenth Inning; Locals in Derbytown Today. BY EDDIE ASH, Times Sports Editor After a hard pull, the Indians of Emmet McCann were back in first place this morning in the scrambled American Association gonfalon chase and the crafty right arm of Joe Heving played a large part in putting the battling Hoosiers back on top again. He relieved Bill Burwell Sunday with none down in the eighth and two run-
ners on the sacks, and though his start in the relief role was unsteady in that round, Joe found his stride in the ninth and held off the Louisville Colonels until his mates scored the winning run in the fourteenth stanza, the final score being 8 to 7. The second tilt scheduled at Perry stadium Sunday was called off after three innings owing tc the 6 o’clock closing law. Minneapolis was held idle by rain on the Sabbath and Columbus split a double header with Toledo, thereby paving the way for the Indians to creep out in front by the margin of 4 points over the Millers. The Sunday action ended Tribe performances on the home lot until July 28 and the new league leaders were in Louisville today for a twin bill this afternoon. The Tribesmen will return home tonight, pack up and depart for Kansas City, where the Blues will be met on Wednesday. The road journey starting today calls for the men of
McCann to appear in seven enemy camps, Louisville, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Toledo and Columbus. The overtime battle here Sunday had a peculiar ending and went to demonstrate the fact that in baseball the law of averages usually
Stoefen Raps Young Parker fiy United Press CLEVELAND, July 4. Lester Stoefen, lanky Californian, won the Ohio State singles tennis championshin here Sunday, defeating Frankie Parker, Milwaukee, on a muddy court. The score was 6-3, 3-6, 7-5. Parker, 16-year-old national boys champion, had defeated Stoefen for the western singles championship at Chicago ten days ago and his superior speed had made him a favorite in today’s match. He was handicapped by the mud, howevef, while long arms enabled him to make returns in many instances without having to plough through the mud after the ball.
In ihe battle of individual stavo : the east came away better than the j west. In nine of fifteen ante, the eastern slars won or tied for first place. The real battle of the cay was the ! race between Bill Carr of Penn- | sylvania and "Blazing Ben’ Eastj man of Stanford in the 400-yard dash, v’hich Carr won by setting a i new meet record of 47 seconds flat. Carr matched strides with Eastman from the start, pulling ahead in the lest 100 yards after a terrific race. Three yards back of Eastman came Karl Warner of Yale to take third place. It was Eastman’s first defeat in his brilliant career on the track. He redeemed himself by setting anew record of 1:51.9 to win the 880. These were the only records broken.

hits off about even on breaks of the game. In the fourteenth stanza, with one out, Fitzgerald doubled and moved to third on Bedore's out, Sigafoos bounced to Adair at second and the Colonel infielder muffed the sphere, Fitzgerald scoring. In the eighth, when Louisville tied the game with four runs, Adair reached first on a miscue by Sigafoos and eventually scored. Tribe Lead Vanishes The Indians stacked up a lead of 7 to 1 in the first six rounds before the Colonels started to hammer the ball in the se ertth and chalked up two tallies to make the count 7 to 3. In the eighth the Tribe balloor ascended and four hits, an error anc’ walk put four markers across, evening the contest. A single by Nachand and double by Funk, opening the eighth, brought about the removal of Burwell. Heving took up the toil, Sigafoos uncorked a wild throw to first on Adair when Nachand could have been cut off at the plate. Shea walked, filling the sacks, Nachand batted for Phil Weinart and fanned, Olivares singled and Simons singled before Layne fanned, retiring the side. Close in Ninth The Indians loaded the sacks with one down in the ninth, but Fitzgerald's fly was too short to permit the runner on third to take a chance and Bedore whistled a liner to right that Nachand snared Both teams barely missed scoring in the eleventh. For Louisville Olivares led off with a double and advanced to third on Simons’ sacrifice* Hale grabbed Layne’s shoe top liner and Branom was given an intentional pass. Brancm and Olivares tried to fool the Indians with a double steal and Olivares was erased at the plate. In the Tribe eleventh McCann singled, was forced by Riddle, Heving flied out and on Hale’s double to the Jest field corner Riddle was caught at the plate on a perfect return, Layne to Olivares to Shea. Crowd of 4,217 Louisville also threatened in the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth, but Heving refused to crack when a hit meant a run. The faqs were kept in a turmoil of shouting over the exciting extra inning action and the loyal rooters were limp and exhausted when the Indians finally registered the victory run. Paid attendance was 4,217, despite threatening rain. A big feature was Emmet McCann s home run in the fourth inning. Rosenberg doubled and the Tribe chief stepped to the plate and walloped the sphere over the left field wall. It was a mighty poke. The scheduled second tilt was late starting, and only three innings, no game, were played, Louisville lcad- ; ing, 5 to 1. Barnhart and Marcum I were the opposing hurlers. Branom of Louisville tripled, cleaning the : sacks ip the third, but will not be ci edited with the three-bagger and nins batted in. Incomplete game statistics don’t go into the league records.

Peterson, Maus, Russell and Reed Survive Municipal Play
BY DICK MILLER Four players remained today in the battle for the Indianapolis Public Links championship. They are Burns Maus and George Peterson, both of South Grove and Billy Reed Jr., and Billy Russell, both of Riverside. Two rounds of matches the past week-end at Sarah Shank Saturday and at South Grove Sunday, reduced the field from sixteen. Because none of the players in the semi-finalists hail from Pleasant Run, a change has been made in the windup program for next weekend. Pleasant Run originally scheduled to be the scene of the finals next Sunday, will be the fighting ground for the semi-final matches on Saturday instead. The thirty-six hole final match will be played at Riverside on Sunday. Billy Reed, who recently won the seventh annual Indianapolis Times’ schoolboy city championship, was too tough for Nelson Marks in their second round match at South Grove Sunday. The Riverside star could not match his pars and birdies, trailing two down at the turn. Reed increased the lead two more before ending the match on the fifteenth with a birdie. Billy Russell cut one stroke off perfect figures on the first nine, his 35 giving him a five up lead on Stanley Caster. Russell finished out with a 7 and 6 triumph.

With many knockout victories to his credit, Tiger Jack Fox, Indiana’s new heavyweight champ, believes he has at least an even chance of punching joe Sekyra into dreamland at Perry stadium Thursday night when he fights the na-tionally-known star over the tenround route. Fox demonstrated at Terre Haute a few weeks back that he has a tremendous wallop when he knocked out Jack Redman, South Bend Negro, in the first round. Many Hoosiers believed Redman was a real threat in the heavyweight ranks until Fox flattened him. Last September Sekyra startled the fistic world by winning a tenround battle from Charlie Retzlaff.

Y oung Ring Rivals Mix ‘Heroic Hebrew* Levinsky Faces ‘Livermore Lover’ Baer. By United Press RENO, New, July 3.—The divorce industry, usually a dominant factor in Reno’s life, was relegated to second place today as enthusiastic fans awaited the twenty-round fight between Max Baer and King Levinsky, youthful heavyweights. A heavy last minute ticket sale indicated the fight would be a financial success. A $65,000 gate was anticipated. It seemed certain that Jack Dempsey's’ open-air arena, with a seating capacity of 20.000, would be fairly well filled by 4:30 p. m.. when the first preliminary is scheduled. The principals, pronounced in tiptop shape by trainers enjoyed a dav of ease Sunday. They wandered around town in vivid contrast to each other. Rivals Are Talkative Baer, tell and rangy and almost as dark as the Indians from Nevada's plains, displayed his customary fashion-plate elegance. Levinsky, blonde and chunky, was clad in rumpled clothing. As usual he disdained the use of a necktie. And, as usual, both were talkative. “He's a champion with the women, but wait until I get him in the ring,” sneered Levinsky. whom Baer has characterized as the “heroic Hebrew.” And Baer, termed by the former Chicago fish peddler as the “Livermore lover,” sneered back: “He's a tramp on the street and probably not much better as a fighter.” The crowd—composed of smartly clad divorcees, hard-rock miners, motion picture stars, cowboys and Indians —listened delightedly. Belting Odds Even Betting was fairly brisk in the gambling halls with odds even. Weighing ir. was the only official activity Sunday. Baer weighed 203and Levinsky 196^*. It was announced after the weighing ceremony that George Blake, well-known referee, will be the only official. There will be no judges. Both fighters were informed that the event is to be a prize fight, with each man protecting himself at all times. Fouls are to be scored merely as points against the offender.
