By Joe Williams Managing Camera Is Tough Task a u 9 Soresi, New Pilot, Harassed by ‘Mob’ man Italian Faces Bankruptcy Referee
NEW YORK, June 26. —Does any one want to buy Primo Camera, 260 pounds of Italian muscle on the hoof—and what a hoof? If you are interested, then get in touch with Louis Richard Soresi, former vice-president of the Banca Commerciale Italiana Trust Company, who is extremely anxious to get back to his banking and leave prize fight managing to the boys in the racket. At least that was Soresi’s frame of mind today as he fetched Primo from his Pompon Lakes training camp to a referee in bankrutpey in Rector street. Camera Is reporting there because of the curiosity of one Theodore K. Skratt. Skratt holds an assignment of claim against the man mountain from Emelia Tarsini, the Soho waitress, who converted some of the Primo's impassioned writing into a $14,000 breach of promise decision in England recently. Soresi is finding out that managing a prize fighter has more to it than carrying a towel in the corner and collecting the swag in the promoter’s office as soon as possible after the battle. Soresi also is finding out that the “arm,” in the parlance of the mob, is more than th&t section of the anatomy between the hand and the shoulder. a a a YOU all have heard of Bill Duffy, urbane front man for Primo since Big Boy landed here several years ago with his big, toothy smile, pcndcrous gondolas and a smattering idea of what to do when put in a ring. Bill still is the bloke w'ho speaks for and directs the big boy in this country. Soresi consented to that. But Soresi. in the course of associating wuth Duffy, has not formed any lasting affection for the Broadway characters who rally arcund Duffy. In January, 1932, Soresi discovered that his illustrious fellowcountryman was earning a lot of money, but that his then manager, Leon See, the Frenchman who first brought Primo to this country, was losing it even faster in oil wells that were dry. mining stock that had no mines and other forms of wildcat investing. Whereupon Soresi stepped in and became Da Preem's pilot while cn a visit to Italy when Camera was there after his lamented contest with poor Ernie Schaaf. Soresi has a fifteen-year contract calling for 50 per cent of Primo's swag. n tt a OWNEY MADDEN, the beer baron, financed Camera's first junket to America. With Madden, Da Preem and See inherited Duffy and Walter (Good Time Charley) Friedman, who engineered, the deal. And when Soresi brought Big Boy back this last time he let things ride as they were, but hesitated about giving Duffy a contract “because of the hangers-on around him.” Duffy still is without a contract. But Soresi rapidly is becoming acquainted with “the bite.” He no doubt now realizes why See was so willing to go into retirement, happy to be owing no more than $73,000, Soresi said: “I informed Duffy that I didn't want all these self-appointed assistants lounging around and everlastingly putting in thexr oars. Every time I open my mouth I'm told that I don’t know anything about the game. I’ve been told it so often that I’m commencing to believe it myself. “There must be fifty of them hanging around Dr. Bier’s place at Pompton Lakes. The camp has been run as though Camera 'was to get a million dollars. “Why, if the Jack Sharkey fight of Thursday draws more than anybody expects it to draw now, which is $300,000 net, Primo’s end would be only $30,000. That would leave him only $15,000, or just enough to settle that Tarsini claim, if it turns out that he has to pay it.”

Babe Ruth Benched! Yankees Break Even With Tigers —Senators \\ in
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. June 26.—Babe Ruth, the all-time home run king, was benched Sunday, apparently because of weakness at bat. for the first time since ue became a big league star. After getting only two hits in seventeen trips to the plate, the man who blasted out sixty home runs in 1927 found himsei: warming the New York Yankees bench during the second game of the doubleheader with Detroit. Young Dixie Walker replaced him in left field. Ruth made six trips to the plate
per round or one-half stroke over par 71. He crushed the title hopes of young Bill Heinlein, whom he engaged in a thirty-six-hole playoff Saturday, beneath a course record round of 67. Although possessed with a putting stroke that resembles perfection Paulsen was not making them in the morning round of the thirty-six-hole playoff with Heinlein and a couple of three-putted greens and a six on a par four hole left him three strokes behind the young In-

BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor Minus the services of Ernie Wingard, lanky first sacker, who was , struck in the face by a thrown ball, the Indians were back in town today and they will open a short series with the Louisville Colonels under the lights at Perry stadium tonight. Wingard was cut under the eye, the laceration requiring six stitches, and he will be out of action indefinitely. The Tribesmen dropped two, won one and tied one in the four tilts in Derbytown and slipped out of second place as the St. Paul Saints ; zoomed ahead of the to cut the lead of the Columbus Birds to five and one-half games.

Zaharias in Arena Tussle George (Cry Baby) Zaharias, 230pound Greek, who is known for his rough ring tactics, clashes with the popular Paul Harper, young Texan, in tonight’s feature wrestling tussle at Sports outdoor arena, 500 North Pennsylvania street. Harper, who scales 220, has gone undefeated in four local starts. Zaharias recently defeated Jim McMillen and is one of only three grapplers to win a fall over Jim Londos since 1930. The Greek husky, making his debut here, is rated one of the most colorful wrestlers in the business. Two supporting bouts bring together Bronko Nagurski vs. Jack Zarnas and Milo Steinborn vs. Archie Rauta. Nagurski, former allAmerica football star at Minnesota, has gone undefeated in forty-one consecutive matches. His opponent, Zarnas, is a young Greek and a protege of Jim Londos. I. A. C.

dianapolis star at lunch time. Heinlein did a 73 and Paulsen a 76. Tossing a birdie at young Bill on the first hole of the afternoon round, Paulsen began his uphill battle to overhaul his opponent. Paulsen went out in sub par 34, while Heinlein was out in 36, one stroke over and the fight down to the wire was on. Paulsen got his third birdie of the round on the long 584-yard eleventh to even the match, but trailed again when Heinlein drove to a trap, recovered like a Hagen and dropped a thirty-five-foot putt for a birdie on No. 12. Both were in a trap on the thirteenth. but Heinlein recovered masterfully and picked up another stroke to go two up and appeared “in" with the only title he has not held in Indiana golf. Heinlein watched a twenty-foot putt roll in for Paulsen and a birdie, while his putt of almost equal length stopped on the lip of No. 14. He saw two more strokes filter away in a trap on No. 15 and his oponent went one stroke to the good with another birdie. Heinlein saw another stroke slip away when he found a trap on No. 17, while Paulsen scored a par. It required an eagle on the last hole to tie, even if Paulsen took a par, but Guy was on the green ten feet from the cup in three, and after Bill had fallen miserably short with his effort for a 3, Paulsen ran down the putt that gave him a recordbreaking score of 67, four under par. ! City Swimmer Cracks Record Fifteen-year-old Helen Lee Smith, Indianapolis Athletic Club swimming heroine, added another record to her list Sunday. She turned in a 4:15.8 performance in the 300-yard medley swim at Broad Ripple, bettering by five seconds the existing world's record of 4:20.8 for the distance, held by Eleanor Holm.

cocked hat. The Indians lost, 4 to 3, thirteen innings, on Saturday in Louisville, dropped the first half of Sunday’s twin bill there, 9 to 5, and then went ten innings to a 4 and 4 draw in the Sabbath windup struggle that was halted by darkness. Bill Thomas was the losing pitcher Saturday, going the entire distance, and the Sunday defeat want against Jack Tising. Burwell and Turner toiled on the Tribe rubber in the tie game. Jinx Hits Sigafoos Frank Sigafoos, popular second sacker of the Hoosiers, lost his batting eye on Saturday in five times up, missed out again in the first tilt Sunday, and got only one hit in the second Sabbath fray. The temporary slump pulled Frank down below the .400 mark, to .389, but even that is what is known as a terrific pace for a regular late in June. He is nine over the 100 mark in base hits. An eighth-inning rally good for three runs saved the Indians in the second battle with the Colonels Sunday and threw the contest into a tie. It was in this conflict that Wingard was knocked out, and on a peculiar play. In the first inning Simons of Louisville scratched a hit to Burwell and when the Tribe hurler made a hurried throw the ball struck the runner on the arm and caromed and hit Wingard under the eye. Ernie passed out of action and Bedore switched from third to first and White took Bedore's place at the hot corner. Tom Angley led the Indians at bat in the first Sunday fracas with three blows, including a triple, and Chapman collected three hits in the ten-inning draw. Tribe Makes Triple Play A triple play was executed by the Indians in the eighth stanza of the tied game. With Adair and Erickson on base, Funk flied to Cooney and Adair was doubled at the plate trying to score after the catch. Riddle then threw to Sigafoos, who tagged Erickson for the third out. In the tenth the Colonel fans thought the game was in the bag when Simons led off with a triple. Turner passed Norman and Adair purposely, filling the bases. Erickson forced Simons at the plate, Lee to Riddle; Funk also forced Norman at the plate, Turner to Riddle, and Turner then tossed out Olivares. The Colonel-Indian series opener here tonight will begin at 8:15 and it will be a free gate for women in the grandstand and “family night” in the bleachers. Bruno Betzel’s Kentuckians will perform here through Wednesday, with all games at night.
Ump as Horse Colonel Fan Plays Part of Jockey; Betzel Is Suspended. WHEN the Indians executed a triple play on the Colonels in Louisville Sunday Manager Bruno Betzel got so hot under the collar during the heated combat he rushed up to the plate and made so much noise and used so many gestures the Louisville fans joined in and showered the field with cushions and bottles. Umpire McLaughlin was the target. After the game one big fellow leaped out of the stands and climbed aboard McLaughlin's broad back. The ump was jostled about, and it was said several punches landed on various parts of his anatomy. Chief Betzel was suspended indefintely today and will sit in the grand stand at Perry stadium tonight when his battling Colonels resume operations with the Hoosiers.

That the fight among public links players to determine the personnel of the four-man team to represent Indianapolis in the national championship tournament in Portland, Ore., in August, is a bitter one was shown plainly Sunday when three sub par and five even par rounds were turned in at Pleasant Run for the first eighteen holes of the thir-ty-six hole test.

The trio of players to break par with 72s were John McGuire, Coffin, and Arthur Lockwood Jr. and Stuart Tomlinson, both of Pleasant Run. Those equalling course par 73 were Bobby Dale. Riverside; George Petersen, South Grove and Clark Espie, Pleasant Run, all members of the 1932 team; Mike Poliak, Coffin, and Fred Johnson, Riverside. The scene of action will shift to Coffin course next Sundry for the eighteen hole windup. While the odds are more than even that four of the above eight leaders will come through, it is far from a safe assertion with fifteen additional players within three strokes of the lead. In addition to determining the quartet that will go to Portland, the thirty-six hole test also will settle the sixteen to fignt it out later by match play for the Indianapolis title. Dave Mitchell, South Grove star who was medalist in the national event at St. Paul two years ago and No. 1 man on the team last year, was well down the list Sunday with a 78.

Giant Camera Looms as Next Heavy Champ Italian Is Improved Boxer and May Turn Tables on Champion Jack Sharkey Thursday: 60.000 Expected to Pay $350,000 at Gate. BY JACK CUDDY I’rited Tress Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 26.—Primo Camera, the best of pugilism’s giants, has an excellent chance of becoming Italy’s first world heavyweight champion Thursday night when he meets Jack Sharkey in their scheduled fifteen-round title bout at Madison Square Garden’s bowl. Despite the training camp stories of Sharkey’s excellent condition, his scowls and savage sallies at sparring partners, and his masterly boxing technique, the odds today were only 6 to 5 in favor of the champion, cur? of the closest quotations for any heavyweight championsnip bout. Sharkey is favored to beat Camera chiefly because of his victory over the Italian in their fifteen-round bout on Oct 12. 1931. Sharkey beat him decisively, flooring the big fellow in the fourth round. He might have knocked him out if he had not lost his head.
But that defeat was the turning point in Camera’s careet. It was the kick that Camera needed to make iiim study boxing seriously. Since then he has improved his boxing and hitting better by 100 per cent. In his last bouts, Primo displayed a truly formidable left jab and he has polished it up during the training siege. Sharkey will enter the ring weighing about 206 pounds, or fifty-six pounds less than his challenger. Because of his 5 feet 11H inches, it is expected that the champion will try to do most of his damage to the taller man’s body. Besides the physical handicaps. Sharkey—ah in-and-outer teni p e ramentally—probably will be in an uncertain mood Thursday night, , because of the recent kidnapping threats against his children. The Garden expects about 60.000 fans to witness the bout, attracting a gate of approximately $350,000.
