400 Amateur Boxers From 26 States Ready.

By EDDIE ASH Times Staff Writer CHICAGO, Feb. 27.—Amateur boxers from 26 states poured into Chicago over the week-end and this morning to mark tithe before the opening fireworks in the Tournament of Golden Gloves Champions at the Stadium tonight. It’s the 12th annual event and after three nights of leather fossing the field of approximately 400, including Chicago boys, will be reduced to 32. The 32 survivors are te return here to battle it out in the semifinals and finals on March 10. Indianapolis Golden Glovers checked in yesterday afternoon and the squad was short one contestant.

and became the official all-events|Eric Stone, the winner in The champion with a 1987 actual score|Times-Legion tournament heavy-

and a 2041 total. He showed scores of 594, 687 and 706. The past tournament passed even the predictions of local bowling officials who last week announced that at that time it had been one

* of the highest scoring of all time

here and marks in the last weekend of the event bore out their statements. Totals which seemed almost a

_surety of standing untouched {fell

by the wayside in last-day competition and were only good for second and third places.

Winners Unofficial Despite the fact that scoring was

@ 7 extremely heavy the doubles record

was the only one smashed in the minor-events activity. Fonnie Snyder's 706 solo score does not approach the 739 made last year by John Murphy when he won the City singles title. And John Fehr’s all-events total of 2030 stands out well above Snyder's championship mark of 1987 this year. “The list of winners will not be official until checked and the present list is subject to change. Twomen money awards amount to $3870, individual nioney, $687 and

all-events to $100. Actual winners, that is those who

made the highest net scores, will

: 3-Bout Mat Card

At Armory Filled

- - The three-bout grappling bill has been completed for the Armory tomorrow night where a geturn affair headlines the a¢tion with Billy Thom, 178, facing The Great Mephisto, 180. Ottis Clingman, Texas, and Wal-

ter Stratton, Ohio, grip in the opener. They are light heavies. Pete Schuh, 236, sIemphis, opposes Dorve (Iron Man) Roche, 224, Decatur, Ill., in the semiwindup. The top bout provides Coach Thom with an opportunity of evening the score against Mephisto. The latter annexed a close match three weeks ago, taking the only fall recorded in 90 minutes. * This time there will be no time limit to the meeting and Thom figures that as an advantage. Mephisto also has agreed to scale no more than 180 pounds as against 184 pounds he weighed in their first tussle. He is rated light heavyweight chemp, but it is a nontitle meeting.

PACT DEWEY’S STOCK

SOARS AS HINES PLANS APPEAL

N. Y. Republicans Jubilant After - Conviction - of ~ Tammany Leader.

NEW YORK, Feb. 27 (U.P)

James J. Hines, Tammany’s tough-

oi and most powerful district leadr, today prepared his appeal from

1a jury verdict branding him’ the

political fixer of a gang of erim- - inals ‘while his prosecutor was being boomed as a candidate for the Republican Presidential nomination in 1940. New York Republicans, who non inated and almost elected Dist t Attorney Thomas" E. Dewey: Gavernor last year, were jub : over his ‘success in convicting: , who,

it has been said in New York for

years, was “too well wired to ever be convicted.” Their leaders said privately that New York's 37 votes in the ‘1940 nominating convention almost certainly would: be pledged to, Mr. Dewey. : Hines conferred with his attorney, Lloyd Paul Stryker, and it was indicated that he was determined to fight the conviction through every court. His attitude had changed from ‘that of Saturday night when the jury came in after only seven hours: with a verdict finding him guilty on all 13 counts of conspiring and working with the Dutch Schultz lottery mob. He had appeared a beaten old man then, holding back his tears by supreme effort. Today, despite his 63 years, he was pugnacious. Free on $20,000 bail pending. his sentencing on March 13—he could get as much as 27 years in Sing Sing — Hines and his attorney sseemien confident of a new trial. = Magistrate Hulon Capshaw, ; Tammany appointee, who denied fo a defense witness that he had freed

P. ae of the Schultz gang

caught redhanded operating a lottery because Hines had ordered him to, announced that he would face trial by the Appellate division of the Supreme Court seeking “vindication.” Mayor La Guardia ordered Chief Magistrate Jacob Gould Schurman Jr., to prepare formal charges looking toward Capshaw’s removal from office at once unless his resignation was received “forthwith.”
