Double Thinking Paychek Tries

~ To Knock Joe Off Parone : In Garden 8 King Ton night |

HARRY SERCUS: N Sea Press Sports Edi

NEW YORK, "March 29.2Johnny Paychek, equipphd with ‘two brains and a past that includes some scholarly ¢* browsing i in psychology books, goes into the ring at Madison Square Garden tonight to try to think Joe Louis. out of the

heavyweight championship of the world. One. brain’ will be under the thinning hair of Mr. Pay-

{| defense of his title with plans

chek himself. The ‘other. belongs to Benny Leonard, the

former lightweight champion, who plans to be in Paychek’s corner and put the glaring ring lights to shame with the sheer brilliance lof his thinking. Louis scaled 200% at the po weigh-in | at ncon and the challenger weighed 187%. i

Louis, ever the conservative Business man, comes up to this pin a include the minimum amoun of thinking and the maximum number of left jabs to the kisser | and sledge hammer rights to the nerve centers of Prof. Paychek’y fete brated cerebellum.’ J

. The Odds; Gentlemen

The boys who make the odds on fights have distrusted thinking ever since Gene Tunney recited the second act of King Lear from memory, so they have made Louis— | A 10 to 1 favorite to win, |

A 2 to 1 favorite to knock out Paychek inside of five rounds; A 4 to 1 favorite to knock out Paychek inside of 10 rounds. | | Their argument is that a fighter like Paychek may be on. the way to victory with a brilliant sequence of inductive reasoning and then— blooie! | He catches one of Louis’ hooks in the belly and class is adjournhed immediately. For the suspicion is loose around these parts that the Brown Bomber i going to have one of his good evenings to make up for what happened the night he fought Arturo Godoy. Joe has a habit of bouncing back, as witness what he did to Max Schmeling when they met the second time and Louis was out to avenge his defeat by the German. Not even the most: lofty | flight of brain ‘work by such a scholar as Benny Leonard will prove much

(help to Paychek if Louis is on the prowl and a little bit

gry. Paychek Has a Right

On what he showed in training Paychek seems to have a fair right hand that he can throw fast and hard, and a good right hand has always been troublesome for Louis. It was a right that Schmeling used to club the Brown Bomber into a coma in their first fight, and if Paychek can get across a sharp one to the jaw early in the going he may slow the champion down enough to do some more damage. But Paychek also seems to have almost no defense against a left hook and by the time Louis hooks a couple of lefts to the head something is likely to start falling. Another item against Paychek is that he fights standing straight up, making a perfect : target for jabs, instead of going into) a3 crouch as Godoy did. Part of the proceeds from the bout will go to the Finnish Relief Fund and Promoter | Mike Jacobs believes the gate may go as high as’| $90,000. That would call ‘for capacity attendance at the Garden,

which usually filled whenever Louis fights. |

Local Hockey Season Finished; Caps Head for Home and Cash

Times Special

PROVIDENCE, R. I, March 29.—The hockey Capitals, who found the Rhode Island Reds invincible on their own ice, departed here this morning . for Indianapolis where they will store their sticks and skates and make a 19-way split of $3000 in playoff prize money. The Capitals’ 2-0 defeat here last night removed them from the International-American League’s Calder Cup competition and advanced

the Reds into playoff Series E, in which they will meet the winner of the Hershey-Pittsburgh series. The 60-minute goal drought the Hoosiers experienced was much like the 162 minutes they had spent previously in the Rhode Island Arena, during which time they scored only one goal. The Capitals’ two victories in the series were won on their own ice at Indianapolis. Coach Bun Cook’s Reds . banged home both goals in the third period, the first eoming early in the session when the Caps were short-handed. Referee Ag Smith had ordered Sandy Ross to the small penalty box on a charge of tripping Jack Shill, and Cook sent an offensive quintet composed of John Chad, Bob Carse, Normie Mann, Hub

| Wilson and Shill to the ice.

Right away the five Reds stormed the Indianapolis gbal, with Shill taking a shot on a pass from Wilson. The puck bounced off Alfie Moore's chest, but Carse, stationed in front of the cage, batted the puck into the cage.

Caps Step Up Pace

The Capitals still believed Goalie Mike Karakas could be solved, and they stepped up the pace, finally using five forwards in the final four minutes. But to stage such an assault in hockey, you necessarily slight your defense. That was the Caps’ trouble, and when Red Doran intercepted one of the Hoosier passes, he found the ice uncongested. Mocre blocked as much of the cage as he could with his body and

¢|hands, but Red pitched the puck 8431 over Alfie into the meshes.

The Capitals’ big scoring chance

33|came in the second period. Eddie

Ambois took a swing at Buck Jones’

‘head and connected, sending Buck] o| to the dressing room for 30 min8 utes and forcing Referee Smith to 5 lok up Mr. Ambois for five min- = | utes.

But Mr. Karakas, who. ‘enjoys

0| working at home, wouldn't grant 2 the Capitals a single point. Shots—

and plenty of ’em were poked at Mike by Gus Giesebrecht. Carl Liscombe, Bill Thomson and Les Doug-

4llas, but nothing came of all this.

— Jones Sewed Up

Jones returned to the ice in the third period after nine stitches had

{|been taken in his scalp.

The Capitals accused Referee Smith of poor sight‘in the first

i|session after he had detected hold-

ing by Thomson. Bill, the Caps pro-

5| tested, was just using the Reds’ 08 own tactics in self-defense. The

argument didn’t impress Smith. Thomson,’ however. had company

603 in jail when Mann was imprisonéd e3ion a.

cross-checking

complaint. Neither te B

did much in the way during these sentences.

Kilrea Imprisoned

Providence had only one good scoring chance late in the second period when Hec Kilrea was removed for tripping. But a poor pass by Starr blew the opportunity. Late in the final period Douglas and Shill met in a mixup, and bath were ousted. The scoring, however, had been completed, and the Hoosiers were beaten. | : Providence (2)

the opposing team, while Voran has a left hand shot that’s said to be a honey. It’s not often that Coach Allen lets the Big Six championship get away from Kansas. The Jayhawks carried off titles in 1931, 1932, 1933 and 1934 and" were under the wire first again in 1936. In 1937 Kansas and Nebraska tied for the Big Six championship and in 1938 the Jayhawks finished third behind the cochampions, Oklahoma and Missouri. This. year Kansas tied with Oklahoma and Missouri for. the title. Allen previously coached the Haskell Indians, served as athletic director at Missouri State Teachers College: and spent a brief term at Kansas immediately after his graduation. Outstanding in Kansas’ record this season are a 34-30 victory over Oklahoma A. & M.,, a 46-26 trouncing of Oklahoma, a 40-33 triumph

decision from Missouri. The five|: Kansas defeats were administered by Warrensburg Teachers, Missouri, Oklahoma A. & M,, [Freighton and Oklahoma. ! Tire Jayhawks had to go through two playoffs to win a place in the N. C. A. A. western eliminations. In the first they downed Oklahoma, 45-39, and in the second ousted Oklahoma, A. & M., 45-43. - In the western finals here last week, Kansas eliminated Rice, 50-44, and then edged Southern California’s powerful Trojans, 43-42. The Jayhawks had to come from behind to win the latter. Southern California held a 21-20 lead at the start of the second half and ran the score to 30-24 until late in the period, when a field goal and free throw by Dick Harp and a twopointer by Allen brought the Kansans to within two points of thé Coast boys. Kansas tied the score at 40-40 and took a one-point lead on Allen's free toss. A goal by Jack Lippert put Southern California ahead and set the stage for Allen’s ball larceny.

99 By Bill Behnke Tops Casters

Bill Behnke was tops again with a 99 last night in the weekly casting meet’ at Tomlinson Hall, with Ed Horning a close second on 98 out of a possible 100. Tied at 97 were Harry Bee, Rex Edwards, Don Skyles and Ralph Carr as Ed Behnke, Al Lynn and Ed Martin all three got 96s. “Saltwater” Parkhurst and Fred Hibernick tied with 95s. Leading scores among the women: Mrs. Don Carlisle and Mrs. J. E.
