Marshall Signs For 12 Rounds
A “rubber” match between Jack Marshall, rugged Dallas heavyweight puncher, and Johnny Denson, recently deposed Indiana heavyweight titleholder, has been signed -to headline a five-scrap professional mitt bill to be staged at the Armory Friday night, April 14. A bitter controversy over the distance for the bout almost stymied negotiations between Denson and Marshall, with the Hoosier belter holding out for a 10-round duel while the Texan demanded a 12round battle, his best fights having been over the 12 or 15-round route. Matchmaker Lloyd Carter of the Hercules Athletic Club finally succeeded in getting signed contracts from the pair for a 12-round mill, Denson battered out a 10-round decision over the hard hitting Texan on the occasion of their first meeting here, but Marshall came back later to hand the former Indiana champ a 12-round pasting to even matters. Carter is busy with plans for an outstanding supporting card.

Class Tells as The Canadiens Beat Hawks
16,000 Watch Montreal Take Second Straight
CHICAGO, April 7 (U. P.).—The Montreal Canadiens, using a “class
hockey play-offs today after winning the second straight decisive victory over the Chicago Black Hawks, 3-1 last night before 16,003 fans at the Chicago stadium, Most of the class was embodied in Maurice Richard, one of the National hockey league's best playmakers, who turned scorer long enough to turn the “hat trick” with three goals and further crush Black Hawk hopes of stifling the speedy Montreal attack. Their 51st Triumph It was the 51st. triumph in 57 games this season for Les Canadiens, including 50 regular season contests and seven play-off engagements. Richard's brilliant individual performance enabled Montreal to extend its jinx over Chicago—a jinx which has kept the Hawks from scoring any victories, although they gained two ties in 12 games. In direct contrast to their listless form Tuesday night at Montreal when they suffered a humiliating 5-1 defeat, the Hawks assumed all the offensive spark, getting 19 direct shots at the goal to only 11 for the Canadiens. Chicago also displayed brilliant down-the-ice defense work, but it was useless as
ing opportunity.
Bisons Reap Goal Harvest, Win 12 to 2
BUFFALO, April 7 (U, P.).—The Buffalo Bisons today became oddson favorites to capture the American Hockey league championship after drubbing the Cleveland Barons, 12-2, last night to take a 2-0 game lead in the best-of-seven series finals. Buffalo, defending champions, thrilled the crowd of 10,156 with a slam-bang offensive that netted seven goals in the last- period. to set a new league record in A. H. L. playoffs. Cleveland scored in the first and tied the score briefly in the second, but the Bisons turned on the steam and won going away. Walt Atanas, Larry Thibeault, Max Kaminsky and Fred Thurrier counted two goals apiece to pace the winning attack. The third game in the series will be played tomorrow night at Cleveland.
Plummer Gets Top Mat Spot
Lou (The Great) Plummer, Baltimore heavyweight who has “murdered” his last two opponents in local mat action, is to have top billing on the wrestling card next Tuesday night at the Armory. Plummer, who only recently received an honorable discharge from the coast guard following action overseas and also having been awarded the purple heart, will face a newcomer in Irish Jack Kelly. Kelly's record shows that he graduated in 1939 from Illinois university, where he performed in football and grappling and since turning pro has met some of the best in the game, including Ray Steele, Orville Brown and Cowboy Luttrell. He hails from Little Rock, Ark. It also was announced that Steve Nenoff, a Russian matman who was here for the first time last Tuesday, will return for a supporting match.
