By Eddie Ash HOAG SWITCHES TO THE MOUND mam IN FOOTSTEPS OF HIS FATHER

HOAG, with one of the strongest arms in baseball, has switched from the outfield to the mound and already is displaying sound knowledge of the art of tossing ’em up to the hitters. The New York Yankees paid a small fortune for Hoag and they don’t want to lose the entire investment. Myril failed to make the big league grade as a fly chaser on account of his inability to pound the pellet. In the event Hoag makes good as a hurler he will be available as a reserve outfielder, pinch hitter and pinch runner. His father, Willie Hoag, was a renowned pitcher in the Pacific Coast League. Myril was originally recommended to the Giants by the late Mike Donlin, who saw him with the Sacramento club. The Yankees stepped in ahead and grabbed the youngster. a a a a a a THERE'S going to be a free show at English's tonight and it's worth taking in. It's the movie “Take Me Out to the Ball Game,” the American League’s official “educational and missionary” film. It is being sponsored here by the Citizens Safety Committee and the Police Department. Batter up at 7:30! Take your kids to the show and let them see the big leaguers in action. Several slow motion batting, pitching and fielding “shots” arc included.

Duffy Lewis, of the old champion Boston Rod Sox, now is the road secretary of the Boston Nationals. He was a member of that immortal outfield of Tris Speaker, Harry Hooper and Lewis. a a a FLINT RHEM has slipped out of the big show again. The veteran hurler has been sent to Nashville by the Boston Bees. President Bob Quinn is said to be the only person in the Boston Nationals training camp who seems to approve of the changing of che club name from Braves to Bees. It was his idea. a a a THE graceful blond, Sonja Henie of Norway, world's greatest woman figure skater, won so many amateur titles she grew tired of accepting trophies. The eyeful has turned pro and plans a tour of America in cities that have ice rinks. She is a gorgeous thing on skates and with a crowd appeal that turns ’em away at the box office. a a a Tiny Roebuck, the Indian grappler, may blossom out as a chief any day now. He inherited a lot of money from oil holdings of his dad in the Sooner state, where there is plenty of that thing called black gold. a a a JOBS are so scarce university graduates don’t know which way | to turn to keep on living. So Jim Lancaster, captain of New York University’s 1934 undefeated basketball team, took an examination for the New York police force and made the grade. a a a YVON ROBERTS, the FrenchCanadian muscle man, has whipped one whole family on the mat. He out-wrestled Ernie Dusek, the fierce Hungarian, in New York the other night, and at other times during his brief career he flattened three other Dusek brothers, Joe, Emil and Rudy. Yvon evidently dotes on goulash. a a a IT was a “shooting match” in Philly the other night and Primo Camera was “unprotected.” Asa result the Italian was slaughtered in three rounds by the Negro heavyweight boxer, Leroy Haynes, a mauler possessing a kick like a mule. In his last four starts, before facing Primo, Haynes knocked over Ford Smith, Salvatore Ruggirello, Willie Reddish and Jack Tornado. a a a Casey Stengel used 23 players in his Brooklyn lineup during a recent exhibition game and the * sports writers were on the verge of calling a walkout. It makes box-score keeping a problem in trigonometry.

New Wrestling Champ to Appear in Armory Arena Dick Shikat Billed to Tackle Sonnenberg Here; Otto Kuss ‘Out-Knots’ Zelier in Main Go. BY HARRISON MILLER Ernie Zeller will make his three-point landings at the airport hereafter if given his choice. The 228-pound Terre Haute grappler today is nursing a damaged landing gear, and Pilot Qtto Kuss is flying high after the sudden termination of affairs on the wrestling mat at the Armory

last night. Next Tuesday night, Dick Shikat who recently knocked the heavyweight crown off the head of Irish Dan O’Mahoney, is to appear in the local ring. Dynamite Gut Sonnenberg, former world champion, has been signed by Matchmaker Lloyd Carter of the Hercules A. C. to match holds with the new wearer of the mat belt. Villainy took a holiday in the main go last night and everything was “even Steven” until smiling Otto Kuss, who has been the “heart throb” of feminine fans since leaving Indiana University, decided to go sailing and propelled himself and the former Indiana State grappler over the top hemp for the crash at the feet of ringside spectators. Knotty Problems on Mat With all the grunts, groans and grimaces being provided in the feature tussle, the ex-collegians gave a demonstration of applied theories that did not lack in activity. Even a sailor would have had trouble in extricating the former campus idols from some of the knots they tied, and even Kuss crossed himself t>y applying a punishing toe hold on himself in the mixup. With the aid of Referee Buck Buchanan, a deadlock was broken during the first fall, and Kuss bounded off the ropes and into a flying scissors hold that forced Ernie to shout “uncle” after 11 minutes of tugging. The former Indiana State gridder caught Otto in the open in the second fall and clipped him from the rear to bring him down for no gain, and evened the match with a body press after 19 minutes. Over the Ropes After a series of toe holds and scissors, Ernie clamped a squeeze on Otto’s mid-section that had him shouting for aid. Asa last resort, Otto gained his feet but could not shake off the leach-like vice. Lurching into the ropes, both grapplers went into a tail spin that left them prone on the floor. Otto being on top, he returned to the ring with Zeller almost taking the count. Believing that Ernie had not been shaken enough, otto brought down the curtain with a series of body slams in nine minutes. Masked Man Worries Cop The “Black Secret” not only baffled Tom Marvin, the Oklahoma Bad Boy, in the semi-windup, but threw an unscheduled scare into Patrolman Charlie Hociago. The cop, stationed near the money tills in the main lobby, saw a masked stranger enter with a huge suitcase, evidently to subtract the excess receipts from the box office. The officer of the law drew to attention ready for action, but learned that the “Black Secret” wanted only his cut of the proceeds. Looking like the end man of a minstrel show, Marvin’s opponent did his grimacing under a headpiece made from a black stocking. He mixed fisticuffs and filing toe holds, and

finding that Tommy has bunion trouble, won the first fall in 24 minutes with a toe hold and clinched the match in the same manner after two minutes of the second fall. Pete Schuh of Birmingham defeated Eddie Newman of New York with a series of body slams in 17 minutes of the one-fall prelim. Kautskys to Test Irish Cage Stars Notre Dame Seniors Carded Here Friday. The billing is “Notre Dame Seniors vs. Kautsky A. C.s,” but a basketball game scheduled for the local Armory Friday night really simmers down to Notre Dame vs. Purdue.

Y., championship contender. Ambers knocked Scarpati unconscious in the seventh round of a bout at Broadway Arena scheduled to go 10 rounds. Ringside observers said his head struck the ring floor.

Prior to last night Scarpati, whose home is in Brooklyn, had won 17 consecutive fights. He weighed 14614, Ambers 136*4.
