By Eddie Aslb Kid Believed on Way to World Title m m m Babe Ruth Says He Won’t Be Bell Cow m m m Polo Talent Is Grouped on Four Teams

JpISTIC writers over the country are about convinced that glove scribes in the Hoosier state have not been overboosting Sammy (Kid) Slaughter, the Terre Haute Negro walloper. The protege of Bud Taylor has knocked opponents right and left and there is every reason to believe now that Sammy, the Kid, is destined to win the world’s middleweight title sooner or later. Indianapolis fans will recall when Slaughter was a preliminary boy fighting for his bacon and eggs. He was just a puncher then, but Bud former bantam champ, saw 7 the Kid possessed other talent and made haste to take him under his wing and teach him something about the art of glove throwing and defense. Taylor made a good guess and Slaughter proved an apt pupil. The Kid is only 21 and he is the reigning sensation of the middleweights, although holding no titles except that of Indiana champ in the 160-pound class. His scrap with Gorilla Jones. Akron Negro, at Cleveland, Jan. 30, has gained the sanction of the National Boxing Association as a titular affair for the American championship in the division. Slaughter made the ring world take notice last spring when he gained a surprise decision over Dave Shade, veteran, at Milwaukee. Then the Kid startled Milwaukee fans by flooring Angel Clivelle nine times and knocking out the Puerto Rican in eight rounds. The scene shifted to the Chicago stadium, where Paul Pironne, highly regarded Cleveland battler, encountered the dynamite in Slaughter’s mitts and was knocked out in six rounds. Recently Pironne ventured into battle again with the Hoosier at Cleveland and Paul was rocked to sleep in four rounds. The devastating right-hand smashes of Slaughter have sent four straight opponents into dreamland since Nov. 15. First came Pironne at Cleveland. Then followed a victory in one round over Young Stuhley, Illittois middleweight champion. No. 3 was Henry Firpo, a finalist at Milwaukee last year in the middleweight tournament. Firpo w r as blasted out of the way in one round. The fourth and most recent conquest came at Boston on Jan. 16 when the Kid stopped Norman Conrad, durable New Hampshire scrapper, in the tenth stanza. Slaughter floored Conrad eight times in the first round. 0 0 0 0 0 0 KEEP NEWARK FANS GUESSING THE Newark Bears, No. 1 farm tram of the New York Yankees, have a grievance. The club won the International League pennant and “little world's series” last year and feels it is entitled to first class consideration. Now followers of the New Jersey champs are w’orried. The holdout fever in the ranks of the Yankees is causing the anxiety. Dusty Cooke, the outfielder, was recalled from Newark by the Yankees the other day presumably because Babe Ruth and others threatened to upset Manager Joe McCarthy's spring training plans. If the Yankees reach out and call in a Bear every time a New York pastimer balks on salary, the Newark fans are going to be kept in distress. Not all, and perhaps none of the current Babe Ruth-Yankee salary controversy is ballyhoo. The Big Bam says he will hang up his shoes before accepting a $25,000 cut in wages. He intimates the club magnates are trying to make him the bell cow in a campaign to make wholesale reductions in both big leagues. Babe always has been "a ball players’ ball olayer” and if he can avoid it the Sultan of Swat doesn't intend to be used in a scheme that will permit the club owners to chop salaries in an unreasonable manner. Ruth has in his possession $400,000 in ready money as well as insurance policies that will start paying off in a big way when he reaches 45. The Yankees have twenty-eight exhibition games scheduled this spring bclore the regular season opens and gate receipts are sure to flop if Ruth is absent from the lineup. However, the fact that Joe McCarthy recalled Dusty Cooke apparently means the Ruth salary scrap stacks up as a serious matter. 0 0 0 0 0 0 AMATEUR ROLLER PLAYERS PLAN LOOP d —will comprise the Hoosier Roller Polo League for the remainder of the season. Newcastle and Muncie were to have been members of the loop, but inability to arrange for suitable playing floors in these towns has caused them to withdraw until next season. Marion is without a home floor, and is playing all its games on the road, but Fred Pence, Marion manager, expects to arrange for a rink in Marion at an early date. The four-club loop hopes to supply hot competition. Seasoned professional polo players are scarce in this part of the country at present, and the four teams in the league will absorb the players from Newcastle and Muncie, giving each club a complete roster of experienced talent. Organization of a city amateur league of eight teams will be taken up at a meeting to be held at Tomlinson hall Wednesday night. If the league is started, three games will be played each Wednesday night at Tomlinson hall and one contest each Sunday preceding the professional tilt, thus giving each club action in one game each week. All local amateur teams are invited to have representatives at the Wednesday meeting. 0 0 0 0 0 0 A boxer, a big fellow, in a recent amateur show in New York, gave his occupation as “bartender.” His name is James Joyce. Evidently the vanishing Americans are on their way back. A bartender nowadays is supposed to be an unidentified guy in a hideaway. 000 000 You can see an afternoon of horse racing at Hialeah park in Florida for 50 cents, in bleachers.

Cann made no personal claim to the crown. 000 000 Ted McGrew, Indianapolis, now 7 vacationing in Florida, has been engaged to umpire all of the Cincy Reds’ exhibition games while they are in spring training camp at Tampa.

Times-Legion Golden Gloves Dates Are Set City and Other Amateur Boxers Offered Chance to Win High Honors in Ring Tourney Under Auspices of Bruce Robison Post. Sponsored by The Times and held under the auspices of the Bruce Robison Post, American Legion, a Golden Gloves boxing tournament will be staged in Indianapolis at Tomlinson hall, Feb. 9, 16 and 23.

Golden Gloves meets are for amateurs only and all participants must be registered in the A. A. U. Winners in the different weight divisions in the Indianapolis contests will be sent to Chicago to compete in the Tournament of Champions, Feb. 27 and 28, and March 1, under the auspices of the Chicago Tribune.

Golden Gloves bouts produce a galaxy of genuine scraps wherever staged and it doesn’t take the public long to realize the tourneys are the real article. The boxers receive no pay. They fight for glory alone and for enjoyment to be gained on trips for the winners. Golden Gloves weight divisions follow: Flyweight—ll 2 pounds and under. Bantamweight—llß pounds and under. Featherweight—l 26 pounds and under. Lightweight—l3s pounds and under. Welterweight—l 47 pounds and under. Middleweight—l6o pounds and under. Light Heavyweight—l7s pounds and under. Heavyweight—l7s pounds and over. The Bruce Robison legion post and The Times plan to develop the Golden Gloves tourney into an annual local feature if the response of amateur boxers is great enough to encourage the sponsors. The boxing committee of the Bruce Robison post has been appointed and is made up as follows: Thomas Jordan, chairman, 427 Madison avenue, telephone Lincoln 6489; Paul Bagsdale. 1219 North Alabama street; John Kelly. 1113 South East street; Donald De Borde, 476 South Meridian street: Frank Coliman, Nineteenth and Bellefontaine streets.

BY JOE WILLIAMS New Tork World-Telegram Sports Editor NEW YORK, Jan. 24.—From Chicago comes the announcement that the Cubs have purchased George Stainback, young outfielder, from Los Angeles at the startling outlay of $75,000, with Marvin Gudat and Ed Baecht throw'n in for good measure. This may be a good way for the Bruins to cover losses out on the farm, but it's a heavy burden for Stainback to carry into the National League. He’s only 20. And if you are skeptical regarding the tremendous weight of $75,000 publicity ask Len Koenecke of the Giants, and others who packed it. There were no $75,000 minor league ballplayers last season. The smaller circuits failed to disclose an athlete worth a fair share of that amount. Stainback is quite a prospect, however, and it may be that in a couple of years he w'ill justify that expensive tag placed on him by the front office, supervised by Bill Veeck. If Stainback, whom the Angels

Senators and Athletics are even at 2!i to 1, and Cleveland next at 8 to 1.

Hank Mills and Silvio Coucci held the spotlight last summer as the young phenoms of the saddle. Then Johnny Gilbert came along in the fall months and ultimately became the leading winner of the year.

To date it has been more of a case of the Cubs feeding the Angels than the latter outfit developing men for the main body. John McGraw tagged Stainback as a comer a year ago, when the Giants played a number of training camp games against the Coast leaguers. u n F>OB QUINN, who runs the business affairs of the Boston Red Sox, has asked each man to set his own value to the club. Apparently Bob counts on the fact that after a player has spent some time with the doormats he develops an inferiority complex and figures he would do much better with, say, Nashville. Take the pitchers, for example. Bob Kline was tops, with eleven games won, and then came Paul Andrews, with ten. What would a fellow like Gordon Rhodes figure he was worth to Boston, with two won and ten lost? Quinn probably figures Dusty will send a check for a season ticket to Fenway park. Other than Dale Alexander, who acquired the American League batting championship with .367, the only Boston man who hit .300 or better was big Smead Jolley, who turned in an average of .312. And he did a good part of that for the White Sox. Jolley now is listed as a catcher. The lone Red Sox flychaser who hit .300 last year was Johnny Winsett, and he achieved that for Buffalo. It is easy to see the Boston play-

With twenty of the forty-five games completed, only one player, Welker Cochran. Hollywood, has no defeats. Cochran is playing his first world's three-cushion tournament.

Jack (Blondie) Ryan, newly acquired shortstop from Buffalo, signed with the Giants, and Tony Cuccinello, star second baseman, filled out a Dodgers’ contract. Scnor Gomez was an irate holdout, but apparently he and Ed Barrow, business manager, compromised regarding Lefty’s demands for a larger raise. He had protested an increase of about $2,000 to his reported SIO,OOO for 1932. Barrow said a week-end conference with Lou Gehrig, slugging first sacker, had convinced him that Lou would sign shortly. This leaves only Babe Ruth and the veteran pitcher, Herb Pennock, as announced holdouts. IRISH CAGERS THUMP TOLEDO U„ 42 TO 14 By Times Special TOLEDO, 0., Jan. 24.—Eleven Irish pastimers got into action when Notre Dame trounced Toledo U. in a basketball tilt here Monday night, 42 to 14.
