WILLIAMS FINDS ‘CAPITAL OF EX-BEAK BUSTERS’

Los Angeles Crowded With Broken-Down Veterans of Old-Time Fistic Orgies Insensitive, Stoop-Shouldered, They Are Pathetic Jesters in City of Film Stars and Night Taverns, Joe Discovers; Jeffries Still Active and Healthy. BV JOE WILLIAMS Time* Special Writer LOS ANGELES. March 4.—This place might well be called the capital r of faded cauliflowers. There are more ex-beak busters out here than you can count on the straws of a fat broom. And most of them are rather grisly reminders that professional fighting is a mean, harsh grubby trade. The local post of the once-upon-a-timers includes Jim Jeffries, Jess Willard. Tom Sharkey, Frank Moran, Fidel La Barba, A1 McCoy, Tom Ryan, Joe Rivers and Ad Wolgast. Besides which there are a score of others whose names did not flame so brightly in the electric lights.

Some of these men made big money in their time, but few of them are solvent today. Most of them get along through the whim-

sicality of certain film stars who like to have an old fighting man on their pay roll. They serve as trainers, and, in bibulous party moments, as pathetic jesters. * There are some old timers out] here who are nothing more than stumbling idiots. Insensitive to the world

Williams

around them. Permanent victims of the cruel sacrifices demanded by the ring and their "they-can't-hurt-us” managers. Ad Wolgast, a greet lightweight champion, is in an asylum, a gray-haired, wizened, gnome- j like man. Sports writers nicknamed him the | Michigan Wildcat, and it was his! own boast that ne could not be 1 hurt. He stood toe to toe with the 1 redoubtable Battling Nelson for 40 rounds and gleefully outslugged him ! for the championship. That was the day the bees began to buzz in his head and his speech grew thick. It was the day his life as a normal human began to wane. There are others like him out here. A good second-rate lightweight who used to fight around New York in the days of Leach Cross, Tommy Murphy, K. O. Brown and Willie Beecher makes a vulgar living reciting "The Kid’s Last Fight” in a downtown bar room frequented by the fight mob. ‘‘Come on over and get a load of this guy,” urged an acquaintance. ‘‘He’ll panic you.” Seems Awfully Sickening The paunchy old fighter, who shall be nameless here, was in the center of a noisy, mocking group. His hoarse, throaty words were barely understandable and he spoke with a choking, labored effort, like a voiceless person trying to attain sound. He gestured grotesquely with circling arms, and went to the floor on his knees td emphasize the overtones of the melodrama. And the crowd cried, ‘‘Go to it. You’ve got Barrymore stopped cold.” My acquaintance nudged me. . . . “The funny thing about this is, the poor dope thinks he is good.” . . . But somehow it just seemd awfully I sickening to me and I was never rated at 10 goals for my squeamishnesss, either. You can at least say for fellow's like Jeffries, Willard and Sharkey that they have their health. And you can say for Jeffries particularly that he still has his memories. Living on his farm at Burbank. W'hieh is about a 30-minute ride from the city proper, he sings plaintively, | “Give me the good old days.” Not Impressed by Louis Bald, bulky and slightly stooped. j the man who plunged a nation in j gloom when he fell before Jack Johnson 26 years ago at Reno, can see nothing of interest or hope in | the present. ... He has never seen Joe Louis, but he’s got a notion the j young Negro is overrated. . . . There j hasn't been a decent heavyweight] since Jack Dempsey and he had his shortcomings. ... As for fellowsi like Jack Sharkey, Max Schmeling and Pnmo Camera, they couldn't have swung a towel for some of the old champions. . . .‘‘l ain't gonna say anything about Jimmy Braddock, because he's a good family man and a credit to the profession.’” Was he following the various white hope tournaments around the country? "White hopes? I'd call them hopeless whites,” he guffawed in evident appreciation of his epigram- j matical sharpness. Claims Moderns Are Lax Climbing through the ropes of metaphor to put over some solid blows for the ancient regime. Jeffries said there probably would never be another great fighter—say like Fitzsimmons—until the moderns adopted the rigorous training principles of the old guard. "To be a great fighter you must work long and hard." said Jeffries, "and that's something your presentday fellows don't or won't do. The result is you have a lot of ballroom dancers who wouldn't have lasted a round with the fighters of my time." Os course. Jeffries may be right in his criticism about modem training. It is pretty obvious no fighter ever got anywhere by shirking training. But Jeffries is such a confirmed old-timer in his viewpoint that the natural inclination is to discount his moaning by a large per cent. It is regrettable there is so much moss on his back. A more advanced Jeffries would lend an interesting and helpful voice to the fight forums of the country. REDSKINS GO THROUGH FINAL HEAVY PRACTICE Jack Hiatt and David Cohn paced the Manual Redskins through their final heavy practice session last night in preparation for the sectional basketball tournament. The entire evening was devoted to a fast scrimmage in which rapidbreaking formations predominated. Long range shooting also was given attention. The varsity squad was composed of Gallamore. Hiatt, Schwomeyer, Wanning and Cohn. The opposition consisted of Crouch, Roessler, Angelopolou*, Raasch and Loeper. These ten players constitute Coach PraJ Bndglord's varsity entry.

Local Sectional Victor Has Chance ‘Road to Tourney Finals’; Is Discussed. (Continued From Page Fourteen) final. In that battle, the opponent probably will be North Vernon, Shelbyville or Franklin—all highly regarded in southern circles. Now that we’ve reached the finals, we'll let it go at that. If we were to carry the local winner right on tlnough to the big championship game, you might accuse this article of being a bit far-fetched! It may be news on the North Side, but Decatur Central is no pushover. Don't plan on leaving the Tech gym early omorrow night, because the 9 o'clock scrap is due to be the highlight of the program. Decatur Central tackles Shortridge, and if the suburban boys can overcome their “big floor jitters” they may show you some 1 serious sharpshooting. They Go Under, Too Last year when they won the county title, and this season when they were runner-up to Ben Davis, the Decatur Centrals uncorked spectacular long range marksmanship on the Armory Floor. If the larger Tech emporium doesn’t baffle them, Coach Peterman may, at least, be forced to keep his Shortridge varsity five on foot throughout the contest. A defense against distance sniping will not entirely stop the Centrals, either. Ben Davis tried that in the county event, and Coach Bob Gladden soon had his boys whipping under the basket. Water over the bridge at Clinton: Reports came out of the coalbed city yesterday that the sectional schedule there would have to be moved to another city. The reason given was that water from the Wabash River had flooded the basement of the gym, making it impassible to fire the furnace. Contacted here, Head Man Trester of the I. H. S. A. A. fired back that the tourney will be held in Clinton as originally slated. Mr. Trester said he had received authoritative word that officials there have been able to overcome difficulties threatened by the flood. Somebody, in addition to the Clinton High School janitor, is all wet.

Since next fall’s schedule calls for important games with Cincinnati.

Buckeyes Bounce Back to Topple Notre Dame Five Ohioans Renew Claim to ‘Giant-Killing Throne’ After Losing to I. U. by Snapping Irish Streak. Times Special NOTRE DAME. Ind., March 4.—Ohio State University, which Monday night failed in a determined attempt to pull Indiana University out or the Western Conference lead, today had regained its recognition as a giant-killer. The Scarlet Scourge last night caught Notre Dame's touted cagers off stride and handed the Irish a 28-to-23 defeat on the local court.

With Thomas blazing the trail with five field goals, the Buckeyes dominated the playing and took advantage of most scoring opportunities. Tippy Dye, diminutive guard, held the high-scoring Moir to three points, his lowest game total of the season. Ragged passing and failure to convert set-up shots paved the way for Notre Dame’s second defeat of the season and snapped the Irish 13-game winning streak. It was the first loss on the home floor in 20 contests. Ohio State jumped off to a 5-to-0 lead at the outset, and held a 14-to--13 edge at intermission. After the Irish grabbed a temporary lead when play was resumed, Ohio knotted the score at 19-all and then rang up nine consecutive points. With nine minutes to go, the Buckeyes protected their lead, although held scoreless the remainder of the tilt. Notre Dame muffed many easy ' f - and converted only three of ow attempts.

General admission tickets for those sessions will be SJ..CS, sl.lO and 85 cents respectively. Butler Chances Bright Wayne University is the outstanding contender among the out-of-state teams entered in this week’s tourney. The team annexed 14 of its first 13 games, handing Michigan Normal two defeats. Wayne won over Western State Teachers which had defeated several Hoosier schools. Cincinnati dropped a decision to Butler early in the season, but the other schools have not crossed the paths of Indiana colleges in this year’s competition. Central Normal is undefeated and ranks as one of the favorites. Indiana State and Ball State have impressive records and divided their two-game series. Butler has lost tilts this season to Central Normal and Indiana State, but performances against Purdue, Michigan and Notre Dame establish the Bulldogs as strong contenders. N. Y. Teams Decline By United Press NEW YORK, March 4.—Two of Greater New York’s outstanding basketball teams. Long Island University and New York University, will not compete in the tryouts to determine the United States team for the Olympics. After a poll of the N. Y. U. players. most of whom are Jewish, it was announced that the Violets had voted against participating. Long Island's unbeaten team decided not to compete because the university is opposed to the games being held in Berlin. Huntington Is Victor in Close Struggle Time* Bpecinl HUNTINGTON. Ind.. March 4.

Huge Crowds Expected to Visit Pin Tournament Site Public Invited to Inspect Alleys Sunday Afternoon; Fire Department Organizes 16 Teams. BY BERNARD HARMON OFFICIALS of the Indianapolis A. B. C. Tournament Corporation are making preparations to handle a large crowd next Sunday afternoon when the doors of the State Fairground Coliseum and adjoining exposition building are thrown open to the public. The two structures are to be the site of the 1936 American Bowling Congress tournament, and thousands of visitors are expected tb take advantage of the “open house" and inspect the scene of the greatest of indoor athletic carnivals.

Finishing touches are being put on the two buildings that will house the big event and those in charge of the construction promise that visitors will find the layout ready to greet the initial squads at 8 o'clock Monday evening. The 32 shiny new alleys are receiving their final coats of shellac, concession stands are springing up all over the exposition building and painters are busy covering up the remaining bare spots. MOO AND while the city is awaiting . the opening of the tournament next Monday evening, those who are to take part in the inaugural festivities are planning to make the event one that will be long remembered by sports followers. Walker Winslow, president of the Indianapolis Bowling Association, is arranging a street parade that will move through the downtown district about 7 o'clock. Members of the Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, the first teams to face the maples, are to make up the nucleus of the paraders, but Winslow has issued an invitation to all tenpin followers to join the big procession. One of the biggest surprises of pre-tourney tariff-raising projects was the sale of the “Bowlers Special” three for $1 admission tickets. These ducats went on sale Saturday at the various howling establishments throughout the city, and alley managers soon found their original supplies exhausted. The “bargain ducats” will remain on sale until Saturday midnight. General admission and box seat tickets will be on sale at the Fairground Sunday. n tt n SCHEDULES were due to arrive in the city today and rail birds are anxiously awaiting a glimpse at the various times allotted some of the country's outstanding aggregations. Bowling fans will also scan the schedules in search of time and dates assigned Cook's Goldblumes, Falls City HiBru, Marott Shoe Store, Acetylene Products, Bowes Seal Fast and other leading city quintets. A full house is expected when these stellar fivesomes take over the drives. The balance of Elmer Baumgarten’s staff will arrive here tomorrow from Milwaukee, and the Congress secretary will establish his headquarters at the Fairgrounds site, where he will be in charge of the big classic during its five weeks of operation. tt n a George Godwin must have turned in a three-alarm call to assemble that crew of aspiring A. B. C. bowers that gathered at the Illinois Alleys seeking berths on the 32 teams that are to represent the Indianapolis Fire Department in the coming event. Half of the quintets needed for the firemen’s squad were formed from the hundred or more candidates reporting for the session. Godwin, who is rated as the ace pinsniper of the smoke eating fraternity, proved himself an ace organizer and lined up the 16 teams for active competition, each rolling the usual three-game series. Several of the fivesomes turned in some nifty totals, especially the one on which Godwin and another high scoring fire fighter. Fay Rugh, performed. Godwin totaled 636 and Rugh 579. Members of the department who are off duty today will assemble at the alleys this afternoon to form the remaining 16 teams, and if the turnout is as successful as yesterday’s, Godwin’s worries will be over. Eddie Stark last nijht showed his Motor Speedway League rivals a 689, the circuit’s leading individual series during the current campaign. The brilliant series, made possible through games of 228. 216 and 245, also won him city-wide scoring honors of the evening. Stark's team, Officials, used his topper to an advantage, winning three games over Judges. The onlv other 660 totals came from the Meehanieians-Pittmen match which also brought out a record score. The Mechs won twice but the losers nabbed their lone game with a 1087. another season high. The two remaining clashes were decided through shutouls. Pilots and Guards blanking Timers and Scorers. tt tt tt Silver Circle Bars of the Pritchett Recreation League recently experienced one of the longest losing streaks in the city's bowling historv. so thev added Herman Bohne to their lineup in the hopes of haltine that streak. Weil. Herman has been helping out a lot. but last night, despite his 685. that was good for runnerup honors among local loops, the ouintet added another pair of games to their lost column. The team, however, cave

He totaled 658 to cop the solo honors of the evening, paring the Indianapolis News to a three-game victory over Schlosser Oak Grove Butter. Courtney of the losers had a 611. Only one other honor count emerged from the gathering. Quinette pasting a 611 as Crescent Papers blanked Beveridge Paper Cos., Merchants National Bank, Geo. J. Slayer and Gray Gribben & Gray also nabbed shutouts. P. R. Mallory, Central States Envelope Cos. and Sugar Creek Creamery heirtg their victims. Spencer House Case and Indiana Film Transit won twice each over A. C. W. of A. and Frank Hatfield Fords. tt tt tt Pastimers of the St. Philip No. 1 League turned in nine 600 totals during their two-night, session at the East Side Alievs, Johnny Kiesel produced the best 600 total, but Chuck Markey provided the most. Kiesel had a 657 for the high honors, while Marker, performing with his First Premium Beers totaled 652 and then while playing a pinch-hitting role with 5 <fc S Service Station he collected 643. Butch Zix was again in a scoring mood and gave Cook's Goldblume a 653 to go with Kiesel's topper, winning the quintet a pair of games over the S & S boys. Marker’s First Premium made use of his big series, turning in a triple wir. over Miehaelis-McCahill. A trio of Rolles Printing Cos. members went big to give the team a three-game victory over Falls City Hi-Bru. Lou Ostheimer had 624. John Barrett 609 and Paul Gastinau 606.
