To Matt Surkont of Sacramento and Mel Duezabou of Oakland
should go congratulations of all baseballdom. They're rare birds, thdse
two: They actually had a fight, threw fists and knocked each other
down, breaking what had seemed
to be an unwritten law that an
baseball scraps were nothing; more
that heated yak-yak after the coif
testants had made sure they were
firmly secured in the arresting
arms of their team mates. There
have" been hundreds of baseball
battles, but the great minority
have boasted actual blows. The
reason is r obvious. Ballplayers
make a living mostly- with their
hands. If they bop someone on the
beezer and break one of those
hands well, curtain time. What
ever It was between Surkont and
Duezabou Must have been be
y o n d t h e ' boiling-with-caution
stage, as they actually clouted one
another. Ditto Brooklyn's Jimmy
Russell and Chicago's Paul Mln
ner the other day, as they got close
enough together to make a cursing,
flailin oile on the Wrigley field
turf in Chicago beiore 'mates came xo xne -rescue. .
Best fight for solid blows struck we've ever seen In the WIL
happened here in Waters field back in '41 when Salem's Lefty Roy
Helser and Tacoma's Del Holmes went at it briefly but vehemently.
Rov fieured Pitcher Holmes was throwing! at him so cut loose a pro
testing snarl. Holmes snarled back and Boy lit out after him on the
mnund. Helser almost decked the 6-foot, 54nch Holmes with a wicked
swing to the face, but wound up with the worst end when Holmes'
rieht caught the Helser nose In the way and broite tt so Daaiy xne
medicos were still extracting bone' splinters the next day. Helser
laughs about it today, until he remembers how some Tacoma player
Jumped on his back far an effort; td break, tip the brawl, and right
when Holmes let fly with his smash to Roy's nose. "I saw it coining
but couldnt duck it with that so-and-so on my back," Roy will tell you.
Wenatchee, Salem Had Biggest Braul in 194Q
Biggest gang fight ta the league occurred in Wenatchee In
194ft when Bobby Baer, thea second-basin for Salem, jmd Wayne
McCne, first baser fer the Chief s cot, Into it smack on borne piste
durinr an argument as to whether a Salem run did or didn't
score. Both benches went into action and for a time it appeared
a battle royal was certain. When the smake finally cleared and
umpires and gendarme had the mess cooled down, not a atngl
solid; blew had been struck. There was one casualty, however.
When Wenatchee's rangy Ross Christopher, later with the Phila-
1 delphla Athletics, rose te rash from the bench to Join the brewl
he conked his noirin on steel beam In the dugout roof and
knocked himself colder than an Iced cucumber. ...
Cc$t$ Plenty to See Indianapolis' Clatsic
Ever wonder what it costs to Watch oiie of the Indianapolis w500
classics? Hueh McCain. The Statesman's' night mechanical foreman
can tell you, as he and Mrs. McC. just got back from the 1930 event
this week. They had infield seats not even in the main grandstand,
and were taxed twelve dollars for each one! So with 150,000 customers
In the speedway it's easy to see how come such big purses ride In
the Memorial day event "They even drove big trucks out into the
infield with platforms built oh top of them," relates Hugh, "and sold
seats on the Platforms at nve bucks each.
One way to settle the amusing heavyweight boxing championship
picture, in which at least half a dozen swingers claim to be "official
champ" in as many places, would be to conduct a tournament a la one
of Matchmaker Eton Owen's Tuesday nighters for his rasslers here.
Put Walcott, Charles, SavOld and all the other Joe Blows in it with
Joe Louis, but first break one of Louis' arms so that everyone would
start out on even basis. Then call the eventual winner THE world
titlist and tell the others to get a lunch pall and go back t$ work . .
Doc v$. Doc Top Laff on Senators Club
Reddest face on the town Senators-nine dlesnt belong to any
one of those owners of the anemic batting averages, bat to Train
er "Doc" Jack Boar. It was put there by Boss Liska himself,
who like most other baUgamers Is a pretty pert prankster In his
own right. Seems Boag was popping off at Ump "Doe" Regele
one night off the Salem bench when the arbiter called time and
shooed the loquacious Canack of f the field and back with his tape
and arnica. That's gonna Cost yon ten bucks," liska later in
formed Boag. "Ton shouldn't have cussed him like that But I'll
tell I you what you can do tomorrow sight to get ' even with the
guy. When he comes onHhe field yen walk by him and call him
the biggest homer you ever. saw. That ooghta be worth ten bucks
, 1m 4!l thai nt tt- ' i .. . , ....
So the gullible trainer the next night delivered his verbal stab at
Regele as planned. "You're the lousiest homer I've ever seen in base
ball," said Doc to Doc. "Oh yeah?" roared Regele. "Well you get the
h in the clubhouse right now, and this time it costs you twenty
five dollars!" ; ' '..'-:,. j . .
The Senators practically had to carry the wilted Boag Into
his smarten. He looked for solace from his 8olon pals, but there
. was none. Doe didn't know until days later that Liska had pat
Regefo wise to the whole scheme and that the umpire was play-
lng a If ading role in the hilarious play. Hilarious to all bat Boag,
that Is. ' !
He now listens to the Senators games over the radio in his train
ing quarters, and peeks out on the bench premises only when the
umpire is sweeping off home plate. !

that Lee Savold will defend his
British and European slices of
the world heavyweight title In
London, probably In September.
"I don't know who he will
fight" Solomons said, "but I
guarantee you that the man we
get will be a worthy opponent"
These days, the list of "worthy
opponents" for even partial I
world heavyweight champions Is
mighty short
Fight men here have suggested
four guys named Joe Louis, I
Maxim, Walcott and Baksi and
Ezsard Charles.
"It might be any of those,
man outstripping an open field
say any more until I have the
tan signed to a contract Of
course I'd like to have Louis, who
wouldn't? But as far as I know
he Is still retired.
"Charles has heart trouble and
probably won't fight again. II
have Maxim under contract but
only to defend his light heavy
weight title. If Bill Daly (Sa-
vold's manager) wants Maxim I
would be happy to make the
match.'
