By Eddie Ash Old Johnny Risko Makes Rood on Promise • mm Hornsby. McCarthy to Meet Again Aug. 15
JOHNNY RISKO, Cleveland bakery boy heavyweight, in 1031 said: “Some day I’ll beat Tommy Loughran.” The statement sounded like an empty bo.vt. Loughran had just defeated Risko for the third time, and the ringwise agreed that John was all washed up. The other night, displaying the best condition he has been in since 1930, Risko met Loughran again—and won. Time after time Risko has come back to defeat men who beat him in their first encounter. He has lost to thirdraters only to bob up with a decision over a first-class fighter a few weeks later. a a a a a a RISKO !w; to Jack Sharkey nine years ago. and came back in 1928 .to beat the sailor He lost to Max Baer two years ago, and came baf'k to b- at the Californian six months later He lost to Mickey Walker three years ago and came back to beat Mickey last year. TuiTv Griffith beat him in 1929; last year Risko licked Tufty Tom Heeney beat Risko in 1927. and four years later Johnny wreaked his revenge Nearly every topnotcher who defeated the Clevelander has learned he couldn't do it again Gene Tunnev was one of the few who didn't trv Once was enough. a a a a a a ON Aug 15. at Sportsman's park there will be an importunity for enterprising cameramen to make an interesting picture For. on that day the St Louis Browns will open a series with the Yankees in the Mound City and Rogers Hornsby will meet Joe McCarthy again. Both are members of the Association of ex-managers of the Chicago Cubs. Tin re was a great deal of talk among friends of McCarthy when Hornsby was named to succeed him back in 1930 It was to the effect that Hornsby, whose reputation as a trouble-maker is baseball legend, had undermined Joe The picture to be taken on Aug 15 would show McCarthy and Homsbv shaking hands and beaming'* at each other. a a a a a a Most of Hornsbv S trouble has been the result of his brutally frank speech and hi, absolute certainty of his own wisdom in baseball affairs. He is a No" man When he was actin'* as manager of the New York Giants the front office questioned one of his moves. Hornsby let go a blast that made the ceiling rattle and he was traded to the Braves There will lie a drastic change of the St. Louis Browns affairs under Rogers The front office has interfered time and again v.i'h field management of the team There will be none of that under Hornsby. He will run the club. Another angle that will be interesting to follow Is Hornsby's work with the weakest hitting team in the leagpe— Hornsby, the great hitter, managing the punchless Browns. t a a a a a a fV D"> DUTCH MILLER, formerly of Indianapolis, was death on pop ' * fouls when he was a big league catcher. He missed only about six over a stretch of thirteen years in the majors. As battery coach for Brooklyn, he has taught backstop A1 Lopez the trick of clinging to the leather o n the "straight ups ” Lopez, from the Spanish section of Tampa, also is sure-fire on tossing out base pilferers. a B B a a a ING LEVINSKY. the Chicago heavyweight boxer, employs his sisJV ter as his manager She is the lone feminine fistic pilot on the current books. Leaping Lena Levinsky, as she is known to the bruised ear trade, says she broke into the fight racket to keep the pirates from getting all of her brothers money. He is only 22 and although he was a fish market peddler as a lad he was "fish" for boxing chiselers during his early days in the ring And that brought Sister Lena to his aid. Now the King has a fat roll salted away. o a tt a a a IF Toledo evetuallv finds a position that Hal Troskv can cover without stumbling, the Hens will be in line to grab off a big chunk of dough. The majors are looking for hitters and the big bruiser Trosky can hit. He weighs 203 and is only 20 years old. Hal is a Bohemian and his right name is Trojovosky. He has tried pitching, out fielding and has filled in at first base, but .scents destined to become a fiychaser. He is no pitcher and hardly a first sacker. Trosky started with Dubuque in 1931 and was grabbed by Toledo and farmed out to Quincy last year and then hauled in when the Three-I League folded. a a a a a a BRI CE CONNATSER of the Kansas City Blues turned an unassisted triple for Vicksburg in 1927 ...

Red Kiilifer's pastimers broke out with seven runs in the nightcap of Sunday's twin bill at Pern* Stadium to win a 7-to-3 decision It was a dismal week-end for the Hoosiers. Johnny Marcum, the Colonel ace. stood the Redskins on their ears Saturday night, holding them to eight scattered hits for a 5-to-0 victory. It was Marcum's seventeenth triumph this season, and Jim Turner, who allowed eleven hits, was his victim. Ken Penner. ex-Tribesman. repeated the calcimining in the opener of Sunday's double action. Again the Indians got eight blows but couldn't bunch them for a tally. Hal McKain had the nightcap well in hand until the seventh, when an error gave the Tribe a start and they couldn't be stopped until seven markers had been tacked up. Stew Bolen

Joe Nemeth, who captured the South Bend junior title last week and Nick Garbacz. runnrrup. are the leading contenders from the tournament center. However, much South Bend lavor also rests on the shoulders of W titer Krolt who lost to Garbacz in the semi-finals and he is expected to come through in this event, but the fact that Nrmelh fired 70s in both the semi-finals and finals stamps him a real champion.
