' ! By HARDIN BURNLEY
. By EDWARD J. NEIL
-NEW YORK. July 20 (AP)
With 185,000 in the till, -weather
fine and. the Athletics growl
ing at each other, the IS round
duel of Jack Sharker and Mickey
Walker seemed headed tonight
toward financial as well as artis
tic success. :
Big Jack and Little Mickey
meet Wednesday at Ebbets Field
over the IS round championship
route for the left wing heavy
weight crown as opposed to the
right wing which Mai Sehmeling
rules. ' Sehmeling; named cham
pion by tbe New York State Ath
letic commissioner ' after he de
feated - Sharkey on a foul, has
since been deposed by the sol
emn solons and the Boston sall
orman set up his place. k . .
Sharkey -seems to be rasor
edge fit for his match .with the
retired- king; of the middle
weights. He wound up training
today- at Pompton . Lakes, ..N.- J.,
slightly under-- 200 pounds In
heft, trim in body, his . boxing
skill sharply tuned, bis bitting
touch deft and sure. -..:
Sharkey has been training
since March 19. the early work
being devoted t preparation for
a bout with Primo Camera that
was ruled out by the' federal
court. - .
At Orangeburg, N. T., Walker
wound ' up his training work In
probably the best condition he
has-attained in recent years. He
will weigh around 170 pounds,
almost SO less than Sharkey, but
has the chest and shoulders of a
heavyweight, sturdy, chunky legs,
and he hits hard enough to both
er any man..
While what little betting there
was featured Sharkey at 2 to, 1
and most of the experts think
it should be 60 to 1 the appar
ent lopsldedness of the match has
failed to dampen the interest of
th faithful. With continued fine
weather, a gate between 3150,
000 and $200,000 is in prospect.

ing the match with Jimmy John

Victory over the Vancouver Sol
diers Sunday, 10 to 4. left the Sa
lem Senators within striking dis
tance of first place in the Port
land Valley league second half
race, but in rather a tight posi
tion since they must meet both of
the teams that are their rivals for
(he pennant. ;
If "Chinky'! . Coovert, , former
American association burler, had
n't 'been bothered by -his chronic
sore arm. Sunday's game might
bare ended quite differently as
Coovert had the home boys pretty
well in hand for two innings and
his team mates meanwhile gather
ed a couple of runs off a combina
tion of Andy Peterson's wildness
and some poor support.
Even after Salem tied the score
and sent "Chinky' out Into center
field in the third, it had no easy
time, for Gallant, Coo vert's suc
cessor, held .the Solons hltless the
remainder of that inning and
through the fifth.
Solons Finally -Get
to Gallant
Kitchen broke the ice with a
two bagger in the sixth and Gal
lant went to pieces in the seventh,
allowing four hits and three runs.
Three - successive singles at the
opening of the eighth sent Gallant
in j turn to the middle gesture
while. Coovert came back in and
finally stopped the slaughter after
four runs had been scored.
The soldiers started something
in the ninth and some wild base
ball ensued. . .Lou Girod tried to
start-two double plays; he tossed
the bail over "Zeke'a" head the
first time and the latter stumbled
on the bag on the second one, but
one run' was the extent of the ral
ly.! - .. - '. - ..' .
- Another queer play had occur
red in the fifth inning when Pe
terson, on third, essayed to steal
homo while the pitcher held, the
ball outside the box. Andy was
caught out by a big margin.

Reported Action to Ban
"Balloon" Ball is Denied
By Association Official
NEW YORK, July 20. (AP)
The days of. the "balloon golf
ball may be numbered, as many
close observers believe, but it Is
due for quite a few more flights
before anything is done about the
protests that have piled up. since
its ' adoption this year by the
United States Golf association.
Speculation was revived today
by the publication of reports that
the association was about ready to
consign the over-slsed sphere to
the scrap heap, but the fact is
that no official action has yet
been . taken,- nor - is any decision
Immediately in sight.
This much can be said on the
authority of Herbert H.' Ramsay.
president of the U. S. G. A. and
the dominating figure in its coun
cils; As to what the future may
hold, or what conclusions may be
reached after more complete an
alysis of reports from all parts of
the country, Mr. Ramsay is diplo
matically silent.
The best guess right along has
been that the balloon ball will
continue to be official for the rest

same time, it will cause nt great
surprise if the powers-that-be in
American golf decide to-alter the
golf ball specifications for' 1932.
Protests against the larger, light
er ball have mounted, since it be
came official last January 1, but
they hare not been consistent or
clear-cut enough tor definite con
clusions to be based on. Some of
the most fiery opponents "have
cooled off under the influence of
more thorough tests.'. Others 'ap
parently feel convinced there is a
happy medium between the -old
and new balls, retaining the best
features of each namely, the new
Size and the old weight.
The new ball is l.CS inches In
diameter, 1.65 ounces in', weight.
The eld ball weighed . 1.(2 ounces
and measured 1.42tnches in' di
ameter. ' 1 .
The chief 'objections to the
balloon ball have been that it. is
difficult to control In tbe wind,
especially for the average player,
and that It is less reliable on
the greens. Its most favorable fea
ture is that it affords generally
better "lies" through the . fair-
ways.

More than one-third of the in
coming pupils at the senior school
have registered for the. commer
cial course, it was discovered in
the "principal's office yesterday
when the registration cards were
checked.
;The reason tor this; according
to! Fred Wolf, principal. Is that the
Junior high school students us
ually hare the notion the com
mercial course is a "snap." The
contrary is the case, he says, and
consequently along in the middle
of; the first school year, when the
commercial work begins to involve

want to change to some other de
