The “percentage boys” did a neat job of carving on Primo and he has little in the way of cash to show for his several years in the American ring. . . . Fairweather fol- ~ Jowers deserted the Italian after his last fight with Leroy Haynes in Brooklyn and it was then that he revealed the| "harsh treatment that had been his dish in the United States.

" Carnera knew little about the bruised ear profession when he first

visited America, but a syndicate of scheming managers “built” him into a gate attraction and eventually into the championship. . . . Opponents were hired to lose to the amiable giant and finally he picked up a few fine points of the sport and reached the top. Came the day when Max Baer took it all out of Carnera and lifted

the crown. & nudgeover for other fighters. .

was going to knock out Haynes when they met the first time in Phila- . delphia last spring, but to his surprise he found himself on the floor.

That iy was hard to take, :but there was another one coming. . + « When Primo’s handlers paid him off after his second defeat by

Haynes in Brooklyn this summer

the sum was $600 . . . Carnera says he ‘was guaranteed $10,000 . . . “Boxing gave me a tremendous education in finance,” said Satchel Feet , . . “I wouldn't trust any one "again, not even myself ... So I quit and go home to Italy.”

Rascher Goes Against Lopez

Hoosier Mat King Tackles Top Flight Opponent Here. Tonight.

Am Rascher, the Hoosier state’s outstanding heavyweight wrestler, vs. Vince Lopez, the high-powered Californian, forms the feature attraction on the outdoor mat program of the Hercules A. C. tonight at Sports Arena. Two other tussles are on the bill, the first at 8:30. The Lopez bout is Rascher’s big chance and the former Indiana University star is reported in top shape for the test. Vince is recognized in eight states as world heavyweight mat king. Rascher has been making rapid strides against tough opposition in recent months and has won the right to face a front line opponent here. Am overpowered the rough Dick Raines here three weeks ago, displaying sxill and strength in upsetting the husky Texan. Lopez will scale around 224 and Rascher 218 for tonight’s match, which is for two falls out of three. A special one-hour semi-windup pits Irish Pat O’Shocker, 227, against Milo Steinborn, 220. It is a rematch. Otto Kuss, 228, faces Mike Nazarian, 215, in the first tussle.

Donkeys Give Night of Fun | Burros Gain Verdict in

‘Brawl’ Game; April Showers Balks.

PRIL SHOWERS have come to Perry | Stadium — perhaps a little tardy—but that doesn't help the drought or heat oppression. April Showers, you should know, is the several-month-old donkeyette of Zasu Pitts, one of the stub- . born burros appearing in the don- - key “base brawl” exhibitions at the Indianapolis ball park this week. April Showers proved more Obstinate than the weather man last night in the opening performance. Although most anything out of the ordinary could be expected of Popeye, Mae West, John Dillinger, . Clark Gable and the other donkeys, ~ April Showers went them one better by playing the role of a spoiled child. ” ” ”

INNING isn't exactly the object of the game. Home runs may go for outs and a pop fly may be a circuit blow if the animals become whimsical. The main object "of the game is to stay somewhere near the center of suspension pre- * ferably about ‘15 hands above the ground. The fact that the donkey * decides to circle the bases in reverse + order is of minor importance. Last night's tilt could easily have ‘been classed as an intramural championship game between two squads but few of the 1000 ‘fans remember that Kingan’s White team won a 3-to-1 triumph over Kingan’s Negro nine. What is best remembered is that the Texas burros had much the better of the dejsision over & players. i. = obstihate April Showers had to be carried around the bases, on one occasion reached second The exhibitions are being

Indians Bow to Blues in Extra Round

Defeat at K. C. Is Eighth Straight; Bob Logan Goes Full Route.

Times Special KANSAS CITY, Mo, July 14 — Well, the Indians made it close, anyway, as they dropped their eighth consecutive game under the lights at Muehlebach Field last night. 43

| was the series opener with Dutch

Zwilling’s Blues and the Kawtown fans were entertained by an extrainning skirmish. The score was 4 to 3. 3

Lefty Bob Logan coupled the Tribe mound and performed the full distance’ against Whitlow Wyatt,

The Hoosier chucker was solved for 14 hits and Wyatt held the Tribee sters to eight. : In the extra round the Blues made it snappy. Dale Alexander opened with a double and Joe Vance ran for him and was sacrificed to third. The Indians tried a little strategy by walking Madjeski and Stumpf on purpose to fill the sacks, but the scheme failed to work. Ede die Marshall slammed out a single and Vance tallied the victory marker.

Hoosiers Take Lead

The Hoosiers scored three runs in the second frame and maintained that advantage until the sixth when the Blues got busy and rallied to tie the. count. The contest then went 10 rounds for a decision. The second of the series is sched=uled tonight at 8:30, and tomorrow night the teams are slated to battle in a double-header with the first tilt starting at 8:15. It looks like an all-night open-air show. The series will be concluded Thursday with another conflict under the “lamps.” Killefer’s Redskins were knocked out of a run on a close play in their half of the tenth last night. Buddy Bates drew a walk and advanced on - a sacrifice. After two “away” Oscar Eckhardt was given a base on balls and Fred Berger bounced to Schulte at second, who fumbled. Bates tried to race home and was.cut down by a quick recovery and good throw on

the part of Schulte.
