By Eddie Ash Amateur Boxing Game Does Comeback m 9 m New Tribe Pilot ‘Doing Very Well’ m m m Other Sports Gossip and Comment
'JNIE Golden Gloves amateur boxing tournament has chased the depression right out of town. Tomlinson hall was just about filled Thursday for the second series of TimesLegion matches and Bruce Robison post members are of the opinion the final battles next Thursday will have the customers hanging from the rafters. One man purchased forty tickets for this week’s simon-pure scraps and announced he would be back next week with the same group and perhaps some additions. The Feb. 23 bouts will determine the eight iads who wiil get a free trip to Chicago to represent the local district in the Tournament of Champions at Chicago stadium under the auspices of the Chicago Tribune. The dates are Feb. 27 and 28 and March 1. The entire middle west and parts of the south will have glove throwers competing at Chicago and the Tournament of Champions survivors will return there on March 8 to participate in the finals for all sections. Later, the survivors of the March 8 meet will take on the eastern champions from New York and perhaps after that Chicago and New York will combine, pick the “champion over all” and send them to France to tackle the European amateur title holders. The Golden Gloves classics are becoming so popular and prominent that there is every reason to believe the events will be world-wide annually within a few years. The Bruce Robison Post of the Legton and The Times co-operated locally and stirred up interest in the amateur boxing sport and by next year it is believed no hall in the downtown section will be big enough to hold the crowds for the “glory” bouts. The reward at stake for the youths has not a thing to do with purses. Their entry in the tournament was exactly twenty-five cents to cover Amateur Athletic Union registration and if there is any attendance dividends over local tourney and Chicago expenses tthe extra profits will be donated to the clothing relief station of the American Legion. Bruce Robison members have worked hard on the promotion and are entitled to a lot of credit. The Golden Gloves event was anew thing here and more or less of an experiment. The experimental stage is over and sport fans desiring to see the wind-up of the action next Thursday are advised to purchase tickets early. It looks like a sure sell-out. Tickets will be available by Monday night at the Clark and Son drug store in the Claypool hotel, Spalding's sports goods store in the Circle Tower building and at Bair’s lunchroom and news stand, Illinois and Washington streets. Prices will be 75 cents for ringside seats and 40 cents general admission, the same as for the first two programs. HOOSIER VICTUALS LONG ON TONNAGE* YOU can not deny the old evidence and Red Killefer, manager of the Indians, is exhibit A. The Hoosier state has it all over California for health if Red is used to prove it. A few weeks ago Killefer checked in at Indianapolis from the golden w’est, where resides his family, and in no time at all outgrew his clothes. The Tribe chieftain picked up fifteen pounds and now faces the task of reducing. He joined a few of the Hoosier pastimers the other day and worked out and resolves, to keep up the exercise. “This Hoosier food,” he said, “leads al other victuals in the nourishment league. I’ve got to start hustling or they’ll be calling me fatty.” During a conversation with Killefer today we happened to mention again something of his collegiate career at Old Purdue and told him that an old-timer out of his past had given us a visit and said there were at least three “alma maters” in Red’s life. “Sure,” Red replied.” I was a traveler in those days and attended three colleges, Kalamazoo Baptist, Purdue and Michigan university.” The old-timer, out of Kalamazoo, was in high school there when Killefer was an interscholastic star at Paw Paw, Mich. “Our pitcher, Rufus Gilbert, later a coach at Rase Poly at Terre Haute, struck out eighteen oi the Paw Paw boys one dfty,” the visitor remarked, “I am not sure If Red was in that game, but there was a Killefer playing, I know. It might have been his brother Bill, now manager of the St. Louis Browns. “I certainly remember Paw Paw. It was a burg compared with old Kazoo, but the lads there were renowned for big league athletic prowess. Red Killefer was a catcher then, and a good one, I recall.” THIS ROOKIE*BOASTS OF APPETITE* EMIL FUCHS, Boston Braves’ headman, heeds the plea of Arthur Hunt, outfielder of the San Francisco Pacific Coast League club, he’ll have two of the bigest eaters in baseball on his ball team. ’The other is Shanty Hogan. Hunt, who was scouted last season by the Braves, recently sent President Fuchs of the Beantown Nationals the following letter: “The way I look at it is this: I merely am going to another ball club. I always have hit over .300 in every season and I think I can do it this year if I get the chance. “Am a good eater, but. would rather hit than eat. I have faced some former big-league pitchers who were smart and still had lots of stuff, and I did not have much trouble with them. That is why I feel confident that I will be able to hit league pitching.” " * a ana Lee Keyser, new prexy of the Kansas City Blues, says he does not plan to play night baseball at Muehlbach field this year if attendance holds up well enough at afternoon games. That’s what they all say. Fans declined to turn out at daylight tilts in Kawtown last season even when the Blues were in a three-way tie for the league lead. it it a a it a WHEN Al Schacht, comedian coach with Washington, was a minor league pitcher, he wrote letters to Clark Griffith, president of the Washington Senators, recommending for purchase “a promising young hurler named Schacht,” and signed them "Just a Fan.” Griffith got wise to the scheme, but took a chance anyway, and .‘Schacht was knocked out of the box on his first big league trial. As Ai retreated during the shelling, Griffith shouted: “Yeah, you're just a fan!”

118 Three-Year-Olds Nominated for Derby Many Stars Missing in List of Entries for $50,000 Added Turf Classic at Louisville Track on May 6; Ladysman Is Favorite. BY THOMAS H. NOONE United Press Racine Editor NEW YORK. Feb. 18.—A field of 118 3-year-olds, from which the champion of 1933 may emerge, has been nominated for the fifty-ninth running of the $50,000 added Kentucky Derby to be run at Churchill Downs, Ky„ May 6. The long list, anounced today by Colonel Matt J. Winn, executive director of Churchill Downs, Inc., showed enrties of eighty colts, thirtythree geldings, and five fillies, but lacked the names of several conspicuous stake winners of the 1932 campaigns. Willis Sharpe Kilmer, who Exterminator won the Derby in 1918, leads the list of nominators with seven eligibles. Edward R. Bradley, native Kentuckian whose white and green silks have triumphed in three derbies, has named six of his speedsters, but neglected to include the fillies, Barn Swallow and Algeria, in the list. Bradley won last year’s derby with Burgoo King. His candidates for this year's renewal of the blue grass prize are a mediocre lot, none of them having won a stake race in their juvenile year. _____

man, which rules as the winter book favorite, by virtue of being America’s leading 2-year-old in 1932, has entered four, as have William Woodward, whose Gallant Fox triumphed in 1930, and the Greentree stable of Mrs. Payne Whitney, owner of Twenty Grand, which set anew Derby record of 2:01 2-5 in winning the classic in 1931.

Hoosiers in Big Trade Taitt and Campbell Are Exchanged for Turner and Callaghan. Player deals that have been brewing at Perry stadium for several weeks started popping today, and the latest was a trade in outfielders. Doug Taitt, slow-moving fly-chaser whose batting average fell away during the waning days of the 1932 season, was sent to the Hollywood team of the Pacific Coast League :n exchange for Marty Callaghan, a speedy veteran. Tribe fans will recall Callaghan. He used to perform for Columbus and later with Cincinnati. He bats lefthanded. In another deal with the same club, Manager Red Killefer traded Archie Campbell, righthanded pitcher, for Jim Turner, also a righthander. Both transactions were even-up swaps and no money exchanged hands . Callaghan batted about .280 last year and stole twenty bases. Turner won eleven games and lost ten. His earned run average was low, however, at 3.3, which indicates he possesses something difficult to solve. In landing Callaghan, Chief Killefer believes the Tribe will gain in defensive strength. Perry stadium has a large “orchard,” and Marty's ground-covering ability is expected to pay off in dividends.
Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
BY JOE WILLIAMS New York World-Telegram Sports Editor NEW YORK, Feb. 18.—There is little that can be written about Jim Corbett that isn't generally known, not only by the people of his era, but by the succeeding generations. A striking thing about Jim Corbett is that a study of his career is in like manner a study of Gene Tunney’s. One is practically a carbon copy of the other. So much so. in fact, that you find yourself asking : Did Tunney consciously set out to be another Corbett? To be sure there are deviations, but in the main the patter is consistent. Both sprang from poor, rugged Irish stock. Both early indicated a desire for the better things in life. By degrees, both acquired a studied, scholarly gentility. At the moment of their greatest fistic triumphs both were intensely unpopular. Corbett knew the social advantages of precise English and used it to good advantage. He cultivated people of influence and standing. He became a member of local clubs. Even before Tunney became a personage in the prize ring he was week-ending at the homes of what is known as the elite. nan IN his preparatory days, Corbett as a fighter was not taken seriously by the sporting fraternity. Only his intimates believed in him. When he was finally matched with John L. Sullivan for the world championship the public looked upon the bout as a mere workout for the Boston strong boy. Tunney fought in the preliminaries the day Jack Dempsey knocked out Georges Carpentier. His performance was anything but exciting, and it was dismissed with a few chaste paragraphs in the newspaper accounts. Only his friends in the vast crowd paid any attention to him. Certainly nobody considered him a championship prospect. Tunney came back from the dressing room, crowded up close to the ring and watched the man killer demolish the Frenchman. That must have been the moment when he said to himself, ’‘One of these days I will whip that fellow.” If so, it was the height of selffaith, for Dempsey never looked better. nan AT a corresponding age, Corbett got his first look at Sullivan in an exhibition bout. He was more articulate than Tunney. He boldly declared that if he ever got Sullivan in the ring he would whip him. "The man doesn’t know the first thing about boxing.” he insisted. With Corbett it was always ‘‘Boxing.” And so it was with Tunney. The odds were 4 to 1 against Tunney when he stepped into the ring against Dempsey. They were exactly the same when Corbett faced Sullivan. No two greater upsets have ever been recorded in the history of the sport. Tunney would have won by a knockout had the fight been longer than ten rounds. Corbett won by a knockout in twenty-one rounds. The sentiment of the public was much the same in both instances. I have just finished reading an account of the Corbett-Sullivan fight written from the ringside. In many ; respects, the crowd reactions were | identical. You could substitute Tunney for Corbett and easily imagine yourself in the same arena, ! even though another generation had ' come and gone.
