Boxing Heads Recommend
Change in Rules; Ambling
Alp to Get Fight Money
San Francisco. (UP) Whether Primo Camera. Italian
heavyweight, can ever again enter a prize fight ring in Cali
fornia, will probably be decided Monday when the state ath
letic commission noidj a special
session.
A report calling for revocation of
Camera's license In this state will
be submitted to Commissioners
James Wood and William H anion,
by Commissioner Charles Traung,
who had charge of the Investiga
tion which followed the Camera
"Bombo" Chevalier fight, which
ended abruptly In the sixth round
when a Chevalier second tossed in
a towel.
Further recommendations of Tra
ling's report are for the suspension
of Bob Perry, the second who tossed
in hte towel, suspension of Robert
Laga, another Chevalier second, and
suspension of Frank Churchill, Car
nera's western representative.
A change in the rulings, to pre
vent further fiascos, such as the
Camera fight was generally con
ceded to be, will be recommended by
Traung, who will suggest thatrto
stop a fight, a second must step
into the ring, and signal the referee,
instead of tossing In the sponge.
It is not believed that the fight
er's purses $13,000 for Camera, and
$1500 for Chevalier, will be held up.
Current belief Is that the two
other commissioners will concur
with Traung's recommendations and
that California has seen the first
and last fight of the "ambling Alp.'

Skits and
Scratches
It Isn't Abst, Afst or Aft, but Its
Angst. We had nearly all the letters
there, but, as Andy says, "we didn't
have 'em numbered right." Anyway
this new comer to the ranks of the
Senators looked like a real ball play
er Sunday. Snagging Fortler's high
fly In the third inning was a real
Job, but he handled it nicely. Ted
Olrod was on the spot too, and could
have made the out.
If there are more uncomfortable
seats than those in the dinger
stand we have never been unfortun
ate enough to try them out. Too
wide to lean back on and not high
enough to stretch one's legs, they
are the worst ever. After an hour on
those seasoned planks, one longs for
a perch on the Southern Pacific steel
rails. Here's hoping the school board
makes enough money soon so that
some real seats may be placed In the
stand.
Jones had the Alcos guessing
throughout the -first three innings.
and it was not until the fourth did
Albany get a man oh first. J. Strit
mater and Wilkinson each secured
a single in that stanza.
Wilkinson's throw to first In the
seventh to catch Angst after the
latter was almost to second base
gave the crowd Its first real laugh
of the day. Wllkie looked a trifle
foolish after the play, while Beamls
cnided him for his absent mlnded-
ness.
We expected to see Frisco Ed wards
in the hospital Monday after being
Durneo in the back by Beamis'
pitched ball in the eighth. However,
the Senator manager was around
bright and early, apparently in good
conamon. nothing like having
good tough constitution, Leo.

Luke Gill took his high school boys
out to the penitentiary Saturday. All
of them were allowed to come back
into town despite the fact they
clouted the prison pitcher's offer

A wise crack from the gallery at
Sunday's game: "The census report
shows 10 men missing from Albany;
all of them must have been ball
players." This statement occurred
along in the second inning. During
the closing part of the contest, the
Alcos resembled a ball club. Beamls
had a great deal to do with that,
however.
Beamls looked as if he was going
to hit his left foot every time he
made a delivery, but fortunately the
extremity was pulled down each time
before ft casualty occurred.

TWO BEATINGS
FROM SENATORS
By the UNITED PRESS
Sacramento turned the traditional
Easter Dress Parade Into a parade of
runs and belted the Portland Beav
ers in morning and afternoon games
13 to 3 and to 3. The Sacramentos
took the series 6 to 3 and sent the
Beavers home to open against the
Missions with but three wins out of
13 games.
The morning game was not with
out comedy and heroics. -Sacramento
rapped Fullerton, Cascarella and
Ortman for 13 runs in the fourth
Inning which should be some sort
of a league record. Nine tallies came
after two were out. Deacon Jones
breezed through to victory after the
carnage.

boy southpaw, opposed each other
In the afternoon before 5500 fans
and the Sacs outlasted the Beav

Oakland moved into second place,
game behind the Angels, with a
double-barrelled win over Seattle,
9 to 8 and 9 to 5. House and Kunz
were shellacked for 13 hits in the
morning game while Seattle touched
Edwards and Pearson for 12.
The Oaks collected five tallies in
the third inning of the second game
and coasted in to victory on seven
hits. Howard Craghead was laced
for 11 but he closed the gate In the
clinches. Oakland took the series,
8 to 1.
Hollywood aced out Los Angeles
In a ten inning encounter, because
crafty Oscar Vitt played a hunch
and came up with a piece of pie. He
decorated the scenery with pinch
nitters in the tenth and when Mike
Maloney appeared to be getting no
where, he slipped in Hankus-Pankus
Hulvey after two strikes had been
called. Vitt wished for a hit from
his third base station and Hulvey
obliged, scoring Bassler. The second
game was called at the end of the
