By Eddie Ash Fight Pictures at Lyric are Realistic mum It’s Mystery How Primo Lasted Round 1
'p'HE Lyric theater is offering the real article in the Max Baer-Primo Camera fight pictures, and the round by round shots give an accurate account of the heavyweight championship fracas. The big fellows certainly fought hammer and tongs, and at times the scrap resembled a frenzied wrestling match as both maulers tumbled to the floor. Camera looked like a cinch to be knocked out in the first stanza and it is evident by the pictures that Baer set out to do that very thing. Max was a second Jack Dempsey in that canto and swarmed into his opponent and poured punches to the jaw and body as Primo stumbled, sprawled and skidded on the ropes. Asa matter of fact the Italian seemed on the point of jumping out of the ring and acted in the manner of a frightened rabbit striving to find cover. At the moment he evidently believed he had been matched with a hurricane that walked like a man. u u tt tt n u CARNERA revived sufficiently, however, to carry on and actually picked up speed and form, especially in the fourth, fifth and sixth sessions. He gave all he possessed, but Baer laughed at his punches and danced away. Primo kept forcing the milling and is entitled to credit for giving the crowd a run for its money. He landed plenty of lefts and also smacked Maxie with his best blow—a right uppercut—but it was a clublike punch and the sting wasn’t there. Baer was unafraid to go in and mix it up whenever he chose, and when this happened Mr. Camera usually was upset. Primo took a sound beating and was so void of defense that he was helpless to defend himself when Max cut loose. A long right hand swing to the point of the chin resulted in the first knockdown in the initial stanza. It was a direct hit. a u * v tt THE pictures reveal that Primo was a poor excuse for a heavyweight champion in the tenth round. Baer went after him with a burst of furious slugging and Camera’s legs were gone, his face battered and he was a pathetic thing. It’s no wonder that Jack Dempsey shouted to stop the fight. There was confusion in the ring, Primo was in a daze and a solid smack might have killed him. 'The battle extended over until the eleventh stanza, however, and when the Italian giant came out from his corner he would have been a push-over for a lightweight. It was a slaughter and even the boxing fans watching the screen version at the Lyric yesterday hung on their seats and sighed in relief when Referee Donovan finally grabbed Baer and pushed him to his corner as the victor. it tt. it tt tt tt THE Lyric fight movie is the best outdoor night shots the writer has seen. Important points of the title bout are repeated in slow motion and it is interesting to see how the giants struck the canvas together when Baer would land and Primo would grab Max and pull him down. Baer always was on top during these wrestling melees, giving him a double triumph, at the fistic sport as well as in’ the grunt and groan profession. The first knockdown in slow motion is worth the price of the whole show. The sound effect is another feature of the Lyric offering. Listen for the smack of leather against flesh. tt n tt tt tt tt CLOSE scrutiny failed to disclose that Camera’s ankle was injured in the first round. What footwork he possessed looked okeh until the tenth. It was in this round that the writer believes Primo hurt an ankle. He was flattened in a vicious manner and was shaky and awkward in regaining his feet. It’s possible that a Baer punch to the jaw rocked the giant all the way to his toes. Through it all Camera and his handlers were dumb. He never stayed on the floor to gain breath and ttme, and always tried to arise as soon as possible after a knockdown, except in the, first round, when he was on the run and being bounced up and down and sent reeling against and between the ropes. tt * tt . n tt tt The fight pictures at the Lyric are on view seven times a day. A packed house was on hand yesterday afternoon. The booking is for eight days, lasting through next Thursday.
Domar and Pedigo in Feature Clash Tassos and Wolf Also on Mat Program. Grapplers of the lighter weights will strut their stuff tonight in the two feature bouts at the McLemore arena when Jack Domar, Texas, meets Cecil Pedigo, and' Chief Little Wolf tackles Tommy Tassos. Domar is the leading challenger for the title of “meanest of the meanies,” and Pedigo has proved that he can dish it out as well as take it. Little Wolf has everything in his favor in his bout with Tassos, having a weight advantage and his usual two-fisted attack, while Tassos leans to the scientific style of grappling. Paddy Nolan, although an unknown, comes with a fine record, and Jack Sherry will have to extend himself to win over the Ohio flash. Action will start at 8:30. The McLemore outdoor arena is located in the 900 block on North Illinois street. LUCAS CHANGES IVJIND By Times Special SPRINGFIELD, o„ June 22. Pitcher Ray Lucas, formerly of the Brooklyn Nationals, has left to join the San Francisco Missions despite an earlier announcement that he would quit baseball unless given a job with an eastern club.

EXCITING ACTION CONTINUES AT STADIUM
Miss Dunn Is Victor in City Golf Tourney Elizabeth Captures Ninth Title by Downing Mrs. Parks, 6 and 4. BY DICK MILLER Miss Elizabeth Dunn, Highland player, won her ninth consecutive city golf championship today by defeating Mrs. Ben T. Sparks Jr. of Speedway in the finals over the latter’s home course, 6 and 4. It was a scheduled eighteen-hole match. An uncontrollable putter which balked at putts of no more than two feet kept the challenger behind throughout the match, which was followed by a large gallery, despite the threatening weather. President Awards Prizes Prizes amounting to approximately S3OO in merchandise were awarded by Mrs. George Stewart, president of the Indianapolis Women's Golf Association, at close of the play. The recrowned champion, who won medalist honors with a 79, carded a consistent 42 on the first nine today to her opponent’s 46, and was four up at end of the first nine holes. Both played the first hole in fives. Miss Dunn shot high over a tree on the second hole and got a four to go one up on Mrs. Parks, who took three putts. Miss Dunn's second shot was in a trap on the third hole, but she got down in one putt for a five to halve. Mrs. Parks missed a two-foot putt. Splendid Iron Shot The challenger made one of the most beautiful shots of the tournament when she sent her iron shot to within two and one-half feet of the pin on the fourth hole. She stroked the ball to the left of the cup for a par three. Miss Dunn was on in one with a spoon, aifd halved. Miss Dunn poked a 250-yard tee shot on the long sixth hole, but dubbed her second shot and hit her third into a trap. Miss Parks took three putts for a seven to lose the hole, she was two down. Miss Dunn’s tee shot on the eighth hole was on the edge of a trap, but she got on in three. Mrs. Parks was at the edge in three and took three to get down from there, losing another hole. Four Up at Turn Miss Dunn got a par three on the ninth hole to Mrs. Parks’ four, to be four up at the turn. The long 584-yard eleventh cost Mrs. Parks a seven and Mrs. Dunn a six after they had pressed because of the wind. The champion went five up. Elizabeth was in three traps and finally picked up on the twelfth hole, conceding the hole to Mrs. Parks, who was on in two. The match ended on the fourteenth hole when Miss Dunn was on the green in one and got a par, while Mrs. Parks allowed too much for the wind and got a four. A rain drenched the players and gallery just as the match come to a finish.

Jess Petty Strolls to Mound in Ninth and Stops Indians; Bargain for Women in Finale Ladies’ Night Attraction Will Close Stay of Bush’s Millers; Cooney Makes Marvelous Catch After Marathon Run; Lefty Logan and Tising Falter. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor What a pity! Blame Jess Petty. The Silver Fox outsmarted the home boys on the diamond last night out under the flares of Perry stadium. Sixteen years ago this summer Jess was tossing hand grenades at the Germans and using his bayonet during the Big Push on the Western Front. He was in the infantry. Sixteen years is a long time, but durable Jess has lost none of his cunning, and even if the old arm isn’t what it used to be, the Silver Fox knows how to pitch a baseball in the Big Clutch.
The score between Millers and Indians was 6 to 5, Minneapolis, when the Indians went to bat for the last time in the third of the series. Cooney was first up and he drilled a single through Norris at short. A single by Cotelle put Cooney on th' Thousands (1,700) cheered. A Tight Spot Manager Bush of the Millers wigwagged to the bullpen and southpaw Jess Petty shuffled across the greensward. It was a ticklish spot for the visiting team and a grand spot for the Tribe to snatch the game out of the skillet. Harry Rosenberg, „ a right-hand hitter, was sent up to hit for Vernon Washington, who swings lefthanded. 'Silver Fox Jess drew a bead and struck out the pinch batsman. One out and runners on third and first. Fred Bedore was the next Hoosier hitter, the leading swatter of the Tribe brigade. Petty remained steady, kept the ball low and Bedore bounced into a double play. All over! See you tomorrow. Women Free Tonight In other words Minneapolis nosed out Indianapolis, 6 to 5, and halted a sensational drive by the Killeferites. The fourth and final clash

with the league pacemakers will be staged tonight at 8:15 and it will be “ladies’ night.” It’s a bargain for the women fans —a free gate as the two top clubs of the A. A. come to grips. The series stands two to one in the Tribe’s favor “going into the final tilt.” Hold off, rain! Lefty Logan was the Indians’ starting hurler last night and the Bushmen took kindly to his lefthanded delivery and two big innings staged by Minneapolis were worth three runs each, the third and the seventh. Logan was lifted in the seventh when Jack Tising relieved him, and what proved to be the winning marker was scored off the relief chucker. Seven pitchers saw action and the best twirling was done by the last throwers employed, Petty for the Millers and Stewart Bolen for the Indians. Bolen went to Tising's rescue in the seventh and stifled the Minneapolis attack. Too late! Hit totals were eleven for the Indians and nine for the winners, included among the blows were triples by Logan and Lee of the losers and Norris and Ganzel of the Millers. Moreover, Washington and Riddle

socked doubles for the home pastimers. It was a night of excitement all along the line. Johnny Cooney made a one-handed catch in deep center in the fifth that pulled the fans out of their seats. He ran out near the flag pole and speared a drive by J.oyner of the Millers that was ticketed for a circuit drive. Tony Cotelle collected three of the Indians’ eleven hits, all singles. Dudley Lee batted in three of the locals’ five runs. He batted in two mates with a triple in the sixth and in the third his long fly scored Logan, who was on third as a result of surprising the enemy with a threeply wallop to left center. Johnny Riddle produced in the sixth and his safety to left tallied Washington and Bedore. Riddle also smacked a double in the eighth, but was left marooned. The Miller pitchers employed were Marrow, Tauscher, Starr and Petty. Tauscher received credit for the triumph. Fred Bedore, leading hitter of the Indians, had a bad night. He went hitless and failed to get the ball out of the infield. He drew a walk in the sixth. Dudley Lee hurried back of second in the fourth and retired Norris on a sensational stop and throw. It was big league stuff. A walk to Joyner in the seventh upset the apple cart for the Indians. Tising lost control and the free ticket to Joe Hauser’s understudy brought up the veteran Spencer Harris, who whistled a single to right, scoring Norris and Ganzel. This is the stanza that gave the Millers their winning margin. It was "Grotto night” at the stadium and the entertainment was well received by the crowd. Drill team; band, drum corps and Grotto Revelers supplied the program. The St. Paul Saints will invade the Tribe park for a series beginning tomorrow night. There will be a dou-ble-header Sunday afternoon. The Apostle series will end Monday night.
