Long Fight in I

By HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent EW YORK, July 7 (U. P.) —Jimmy Johnston, the man who talks

so much that occasionally he pickets himself as being unfair to his own ears, broke the American record for volubility yesterday when arrangements were completed for a Joe Louis-Bob Pastor championship fight. At 11:27 a. m. when, as Pastor’s manager, he was told the bout was definite for September, Johnson started talking in the precise

language of the Liverpool docks, where he received his formal education, and did not stop until he had worn out seven sets of listeners. The topic of his filibuster was Bob Pastor. As a member of the seventh group of listeners I missed his description of Pastor’s birth, Pastor's kindergarten days, Pastor’s courtship and Pastor's marriage,

but was present for his discussion of Pastor’s coming fight with Louis. They were to complete arrangement today at the 20th Century Club. Johnston wants the fight to be held in Detroit, as he tersely explained in 10,000 words. s on 2 L 4 ” 8 “¥ WANT it in Detroit,” he said without a pause for station identification, “because I can get a fair deal there, and I can’t in New York under the present boxing commission. The New York Commissioners don’t like me and what I think about them wouldn't look good even if printed with invisible ink.” In another curt outburst of 5000 words Johnston said he planned to ask the Michigan Boxing Commission, provided the fight was held in that state, to make it a finish fight. “There is no limit to how long a fight can go in that state,” Johnson said, “and that's the way it should be. Ten and 15-round fights

t's All Pastor's

are for sissies. My Pastor is a man and can fight all day and night if necessary. A fight of 20 or 25 rounds would suit him fine.” Several listeners tried to interrupt Johnston and ask him if he thought Pastor could run backwards for 20 or 25 rounds, but there was no breaking through his barrage of words. From the subject of the distance the fight should go he moved into a discussion of the

referee without so much as a second’s pause. 2 ” 2 s » 2

T Michigan I wouldn't have to take Arthur Donovan,” Johnston said, “and heaven knows I don’t want Donovan in the ring at a fight I'm interested in. He refereed the first Pastor-Louis fight and what a job he did. You won't believe it, but he said that once during the fight he thought of throwing Pastor out of the ring for running and dodging Louis. That would have been a fine thing,

and let his opponent crack him on the jaw.” While Johnston wants the fight scheduled for 20 or more rounds,

he thinks there is a fine‘chance that Pastor will knock out Louis in

the first round. “Galento would have flattened him in the first if he had been smart,” Johnston said. “Remember when Tony nailed Joe with those two left hooks? Well, if instead of trying to land another left he had feinted with his left, which Louis was afraid of and watching, and then crossed a right, Galento would be champion today. Pastor never

would have missed an opportunity like that. He would have finished Joe off right there. Let me tell you this, boys ...” My ears were beginning to cauliflower at this point so I left.

header, in which they were shut out 6 to 0, in the second game after winning a 10-inning thriller in the opener, the Indians now will tackle the Little Yankees in a single tilt tonight at 8:15 and close out the series with them tomorrow night. The contest this evening will be a ladies’ night attraction. Don French or Mike Balas will get the call to the Tribe mound tonight, Manager Schalk said today. Thrilled by the Indians’ 2-to-1 victory in last night's opener, Schalk’s chin dropped to a new low when his hirelings were held to three hits in the “midnight madness” fracas and were shut out, 6 to 0. The less said about the second tilt the better. The Indians fell into a trance, young catcher Easterwood became rattled and Jesse Newman, outfielder and first sacker filling in at second base got the jitters and “blew his top.”

More Days for Vaughn

Incidentally, Fred Vaughn, regular second sacker who has been out of action for a long stretch, will not be ready for play during the current home stand. Last week the club doctor said “10 more days.” Today the medico added another 10. There is more to this Kansas City-

slight concussion.

Ival Goodman, Cincinnati outfielder, beats out a bunt against the St. Louis Cardinals, but stops Catcher Mickey Owen’s peg with his head, as Johnny Mize stretches... The ball, bouncing high in the air after striking Goodman, is indicated by arrow. After crossing the bag Goodman collapsed and was taken to the hospital.

He suffered

half behind them. The leader on next Monday morning will get the honors. Kansas City has yet to be the AllStar host, and backed by the New York Yankees, the Blues are fighting at top speed to beat out the Millers. They realize, however, that the Indians are tough opponents, and last night in the first game Manager Bill Meyer was banished from the premises by none other than the American Association's dean of umpires, George Johnson.

Great Victory for Logan

The first tilt was a thriller in which more than 3900 fans rooted the home boys home. Lefty Bob Logan lasted the route on the Tribe mound and it was one of the best games for him in long service at Perry Stadium. He did not allow a hit until the seventh and the battle with Al Piechota was continued. The Indians tallied in the sixth |Styrm when Allen Hunt's double scored |Friddy. 2b . Baker.

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, July 7 (U.

Burton, 31-year-old member of the last two British Ryder Cup teams, scored a two-under-par 71 on the last round and won with a

Bulla, four strokes off the pace at 219 along with Burton and Martin Pose of Argentina at the completion of this morning's third round, went over the last 18 in even par. One by one the contenders, including pace-setter John Fallon of England who had a 215 for three rounds and Alf Perry of England, the 1935 winner, with 218, fell by the wayside. A terrific gale blew up the back nine during the afternoon and carried shots off line. Several times the wind lashed a driving rain in the faces of the men battling for one of golfing’s most prized titles.

No Jitters for Burton

Bulla was one of the early finishers, posting a 35-38—73 on the last round. As the afternoon wore on Johnny sat nervously in the Clubhouse, his 292 beginning to look better and better as the scores came trickling in. Finally, everyone hut Burton was out.

2-6, 8-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2. The battle between the two Amenfcans was one of the most stirring matches ever played on Wimbledon’s historic court. Beaten by Riggs every time they have met previously, Cooke went out today and almost took down the title on this, his first invasion of Wimbledon. It was fatigue rather than lack of strokes that lost the day for Cooke. In the last two games of the fifth and final set, Cook was so weary that the tough little Riggs turned on the heat and began outpacing his man. Riggs got across three

|aces in the eighth and final game

of the match, and it seemed Cooke was too tired to lift his racquet.

More Than 15,000 on Hand

This was the first all-American final in the men’s singles since 1931 when Frank Shields and Sidney Wood reached the last round. Shields then had to default because of an injured ankle. America will have a chance to gather additional laurels tomorrow when Miss Alice Marble of San Francisco plays Miss Kay Stammers, Great Britain, in the finals of the women’s singles. There were more than 15,000 persons in the stands today to watch the Riggs-Cooke match and they were well rewarded.

Riggs Draws Cheers

The match lasted two hours and 11 minutes and was chiefly a baseline battle. The most sparkling play occurred in the last set when Riggs drew cheers with his volleying and drop shots. Neither Cooke nor Riggs appeared particularly fresh when they left the court with their arms around

‘leach other's shoulders, but Cooke

seemed to be out on his feet. Miss Helen Jacobs, Berkeley, Cal., and Miss A. M. Yorke, Great Britain, won a women’s doubles match from Miss Betty Nuthall and Miss Jane Nicoll, Great Britain, 5-7, 6-4, 11-9,
