From the trend of sports events
orer the last month, about the
best odds-on wager a guy could !
make on the Schmellng-Louls
brawl is that it wouldn't come
off June 22 as scheduled at all.
WAlle I have a personal convic
tion that the Brown Bomber is
going to emear Schmeling, 1 1
wouldn't lay you a plugged nickel
on it. Whereas. I would be sorely
tempted to post 7 to 5 odds that
the two will never battle June 22.
Simply, and albeit unreasonably,
because It seems to be the popular
fad or craze to schedule a big!
sports event and then call it off.
Started With "Scratch:':'
The list of sports date thai
been broken lately, if. p-aed

long as a piece of rope. Not
quite. Long enough to give
a number of sports enthusiasts

started with Stagehand b ing
scratched from the Derby, after
a build-up that had the boys
putting their long green on the
nag's nose in the winter nooks.
Which was as ,$ood as burying
as deeply in the relt-ir as
are the Phillies. Next, gcMing
- more to ! r nie, the Midnight
llell-Jark Itibbard fight here
was called off. However, no
one lost either dough or sleep
over that cancellation, most
everyone figured that it was
a lucky break for Hibbaia.
Fights too Close.
Then, War Admiral ane" Sea

was supposed to have been the J

than a decade. Trainloada of
western folks were all ,:.t to
travel eastward to witness the
epochal mlle-and-fc,-quarter gal-
lop between the son and grand-
son of the mighty Man o W ar.
The call-off left a lot of rople

Repercussions from that ladn't
fully subsided until the Ross-
Armstrong duel had to he post -

closer to the Louls-bchn.eling

By ALAN GOULD
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN
BOWL, New York. May 11.-F-Dusky,
dynamic and destructive
Henry Armstrong, greatest little
fighting man of his time, wrote a
new chapter in ring history t.v
nighi. by giving a savage beating
to Barney Ross and capturing the
world welterweight championship.
The sensational negro from Los
Angeles, already holder of tho
world featherweight or 126-pound
title, achieved . unprecedented
fistie heights by hurdling on-j
class completely to lift the 147
pound crown from the battered
head o the gallant little Chl-
cagoan.

without once going down, but he
was so badly beaten that the
unanimous d e c i s i o n in Arm
strong's favor at the finish was
a mere formality and was received
in semi-silence by a crowd of
28,290 onlookers.
Last Fight for Ross
-Only his courage And fighting
instinct saved Ross from a knock
out. Twice; he . refused the pleas
of his handlers to let them stop
the fight. Once, with only ;hrce
(rounds to go, he shook his head
negatively when Referee Donrv
van suggested the possibility of
halting the one-sided match. But
when he got to his dressing room
I Barney promptly announced he

For six (rounds Ross made it
close and exciting. On the A

a route. Homicide Henry coulda t
bring his rival down no matter
how hard he tried but he won he
last eight i rounds so decisively
that there ! remained no doubt of
the outcome.
Refuses to Quit
Ross, aided by smelling salts
as well as his opponent's ultimata
arm weariness, mustered the
courage to stand up under fearful
I punishment to the final bell, but
he was a sorry sight. Barney
fought the last eight rounds with
his right eye closed, the who'.e
side ot his face puffed, his nose
and mouth bleeding profusely
and his left side a raw mass of
welts.
Once, in the twelfth. It looked
as though the champion could
I not possibly go the route. His
knees buckled and he bent double,-
folding Tils arms around his head
after taking a series of smashing
right hands to the side of the
head- Barney's one open eye was
glassy. But he managed to '-eep

I Ross was so consistently in re-
treat and on the ' defensive
throughout the last half of - the
bout, counter-punching only in
short spurts, that credence was
given to ringside reports that the
champion I had damaged both
hands early in the fight. Ross
stoutly denied this, nor did he
claim any alibi, after it was all
over, but It was a fact that Bar
ney was outpunched, at least 20
to 1, during the last eight rounds.
Ross best rounds were the
fourth aad fifth. In both he
jarred Armstrong with hard shot3
to the head.
Armstrong" spotted Ross nearly
nine pounds, so -ling 1334 to the
champion's 142, but this did not
appear to be the slightest handi

2000th Game

Yanks Celebrate by 12 to 5
Win; Lou; Lets Mates
Shine With Stick
NEW YORK, May 31.-;P)-Iron
Hoss Lou Gehrig galloped past
the 2,000 consecutive-game mark
in the greatest endurance record
in sports today and the Yankees
celebrated with a lop-sided 12 to 5
victory over Boston's staggering
Red Sox. i 1 ;
Every regular In the Yankee
lineup hit at least once ' In the
1 6-hit attack the world cham
pions fired at three Sox hurlera,
but 'the player who took the
smallest active part in the cele
bration was Lou himself.
Tommy Henrich hit his nlxth
homer: Bill Dickey contributed
his fifth; Red Rolfe lined his
second into the right field stand3,
and Billy Knickerbocker belted
out a triple, double and two
singles in the Yankee attack.
Meantime, all Lou was able to
do was connect for a fluke single
that bounced past second ! base
in the eighth Inning. - f .: ;
No Weakness Yet
Lou accepted today's 2,000th
milestone in his record as a take
off point to what he hopes will
be an amazing run of 2.500
straight games played without a
break. He began the string as a
hursy young fellow with a pair
of "piano legs" back In 1925, and
now at 34. he doesn't see any
signs of the run being broken.
Long since, he has passed the
previous consecutive-game mark
of 1,307 set by Deacon Scott be
fore Iron' Hoss Lou appeared on
the scene.
Although he wasn't the big
man. with the war club today, he

Wagner Keeps
His Mat Title
Beany Dean, Loser, Fights
Real Fist Battle With
Arbiter A. Szasz
Though George Wagner suc
cessfully defended his Pacific
coast middleweight belt last night
in Salem's agony chamber, the.
success led to a knockdown-drag-
out brawl between his opponent,
Beany Dean, and Arbiter Al Szasz
as the pair were en route to the
dressing rooms. ;
Szasz, irked throughout the ti
tle bout because Dean would not
desist from his- unethical tactics,
further angered when Dean
missed Wagner with a flying
dropkick that took him in the mid
section and laid him low, and ful
ly aroused when Dean persisted
in baiting ringsiders instead of
going straight to the dressing
room, let drive with a right that
found Its mark and the battle was
on.
As the crowd surged around
the two wild-eyed matmen, Ser
geant Jack Cutler finally wedged
his way through and with the as
sistance of Gust Johnson, ' pried
the pair apart and escort them
basementward.
" ' Then Trouble Starts
An American Legion o 1 1 1 cer
counted Dean out as Szasz lay
ctretched in agony under the
ropes at the conclusion ot the
bout. When finally assisted to his
feet, Szasz lifted Wagner's arm
aloft. That was a signal for Dean
to clean house on both Szasz and
Wagner, but he didn't get far un
til Szasz opened up with both
hands to put Dean on the mat.
Then, as they started to the dres
sing rooms, arguing as they went,
the brawl really got under way.
Dean took the first fall with a
variety of animosity-arousing vil
lainy, culminated, by a body slam.
Wagner took, the second with a
straight punt to Dean's chin and
an Indian deathlock.
Pete Sherman, was too much
man for Gust Johnson in the mid

straight. The opener, between
Jimmy Hef fner and Harry Elliott,
went to a time limit draw with
Heffner taking the first fall with
a jugular strangle and Elliott the
second w f i a press.

Speed Limit Upon
Santiam Proposed
The county court movtd to
ward reducing 'ravel sne- over
the. narrow, crooked Niagara-Detroit
section of the North Sa. tiara
highway yesterday after hearing
a warning from County Engineer
K. C. Hubbs that unless su-.ps to
slow up -traffic were taken seri
ous accidents would result.
Hubbs said 60 cars aa hour
were counted Memorial day pa&s-
lng through Ds'.roit. Motorists
unfamiliar with the highway, he
said, fail to realize that jn leav
ing Detroit, they have reached
the end of the excellent-high
road section and are entering the
gorge bottleneck. The result is
traveling speeds that are mdan
gering life. v
The engineer recommentVd re
duction of the speed limit from
25 to 15 miles per hout and
stationing of pilots at either end
of the gorge -section to enforce
one-way traffic on days when
travel is exceptionally heavy. The
court directed him to confer with
state highway officials.
