By ALAN J. GOULD
(Associated Press Sports Editor)
CHICAGO. June 21. Al
though the gentle arte of cracking
china and pummeling par are princi
pally in the limelight here today, It
should also be noted that this seems
to be the year tor busting up some
of the most beautiful friendships and
profitable partnerships m sports.
First there was. the sudden parting
between John McOraw and the ag
gressive young man he had groomed
to succeed him, Rogers Hornsby, "for
the best Interests of the Giants."
Now the well known local firm of
Red Grange and C. O, Pyle has split
after a sensational association tnat
began to the roar of the gridiron
crowds and ended on the financial
rocks of the celebrated ban! era derby.
The hlshlr lucrative Dempsev-
Tunney-Rickard combination last In
business here also is at an end after
two booms years. Moreover the talk is
thst Tunney, win or lose against Tom
Heeney will cat the few remaining
ties that bind him with Prof. Billy
Gibson and retire from the boxing
business altogether. Tunney virtually
broke up his business partnership
wltb uuson two years ago.
Gene didn't like the war his man
ager handled the first bout with
uempsey, financially, ana ne aas or
rected his own affairs since then.
The champion, - counting his earn
ings for the Heeney battle this year
as "in the bag" will have made more
money than any other fighter within
given apace 01 time. Dor tnree
flrhts in sliihtlv less than two rears
Tunney's earnings will have reached
12.000,000. Demnsey cleaned up in
1926-27 with 1,T50,000 as his end
for three fights but it took the Xiv
neesa Mauler nine rears and cham
pionship scraps to amass his total ring
earnings of $8,000,000. The experts
often talk of the get-rlch-qnick part
nership of Dempsey and Kearns, and
other famous friendships that hit the
rocks, but Dempsey earned twice as
much after it was broken up aa he
baa before -

CHARLES W PADDOCK
ST
ARS IN SCRAMBLE
When me daoe smaocs cne
old apple it's a peach
CHICAGO, June 21. (Special).
It looks now like a free for all
scramble among the Olympic sprint
ing candidates as a result of an un
precedented series of upsets and ac
cidents. Not many weeks ago it was
simple enough to head the list wile)
Borah, Paddock, Locke, Scholss, Bow
man and a few others. But the van
guard now is led by Bracey, Ytjcaoff
and Hussey.
Paddock, Schola and Locke, not
yet up to old time form are likely to
make the team, but Borah, generally
regarded as the best all around'
sprinter in Ameriea seems to be
shelved for the J ear. Bowman has
broken down and (Paddock was beaten
twice by Wyckoff at Los Angeles.
Hank Russell's condition is in dout
hut he will be one of the best If back
In his 1IU6 form.
Instead of Borah and Paddock,
however, the two main Olympic hopei
from out of the great southweat and
west look like Claude Bracey, of Rice
institute, Texas, and Frank Wyckoff,
Glendale, Cal., prep star. .
They have been the sensations of
the spring and will be closely watched
in their final tests at Harvard July
Another school boy who may step
in where veterans are having their
troubles is Don Bennett of Toledo
who has burned up interscholastir
ranks around this area. Bennett,
whoso best distance Is 200 meters, is
in training for the Olympic trials with
another newcomer and possible cham
pion, Lee Bartlett, who has come out
of Albion, Mich., college to toas the
javelin further than it has ever been
tossed before in this country.
Although he has been running In record time for more than IS
years, Charles Paddock feels sure he will make the Olympic squad
for the third time this summer aa a sprinter.
Those legs of Paddock have carried him along In splendid shape all
these years, much to the bewilderment of track experts, and his come
back runs this spring show they have not lost much. If any, of the
speed tbat made Paddock regarded a tew years ago as the world's
fastest numan.
Paddock won the 100 meters and finished second In the 220 meters
at Antwerp In 1920, but was a disappointment at the Paris Olympics
In 1924 because he was undertralned. He also won the 100 'and 220
events In the lnter-allled games in 1919 while a treBhman at Southern
holds six A. A. TJ. records, Including the time ot 9.5 seconds
in the 100 and 20.6 seconds In the 220. He also holds the record for
many trick distances. ,
Paddock is one of the numerous stars developed by Dean Cromwell
at Southern California. He has been running all spring and is hopeful
ot sailing wiw we American team wnen it leaves Mew York on
July 12.
Kiwanians and Lions
Tie at 19 All; Game
Halted by Darkness
Darkness and hunger crept upon
Kiwanians and Lions alike, and at
the end of seven torrid inninsi.
fraught with thrills of spniiHliuual
play, the annual contest of the two
service clubs was called to a wel
come end. The score was tied, 10 to
18, counted carefully by every mom
mer of each team, so the ancient feud
between the two rival classic teams
goes over for another year.
Historians of the future will point
with pride to the masterful ricochet
shot of Ray O'Dimnell, catcher and
third baseman of the Kiwanis team.
In the sixth Inning, with his team
behind and trying hard to got some
where besides out, O'Donnell tried a
trick he bad learned in his long years
of experience In world's series play.
"Honus Wagner , taught mo the
trlrk," Kay said later. "1 never for
got.'' The trick was to drive one at the
pitcher, crippling him for the re
mainder of the game, the ball hound
ing over to the first baseman, nlio
crippling him. The trick fell through
when l)oc Titus, Lions first sacker.
fielded the mil and tlirew Kay out.
It spoiled all the fun for the Ki
wanians far the time being but It
drew a roar from the overburdened
stands. . ,
At a number of points in the
thrilling encounter, the packed stnmls
evin d the keenest of enthusiasm at
the ijpid-dre pin v. On one particular
occasion, when Doc Titus stole sec
ond with the bases full and two out,
forcing Shy Huntington at home with
out a struggle, the tabs went wild.
It alone was worth the nrica of ad
mission.
There were other features, such as
the home run of Ted Peters of the
Lions, which went for . three bases
because Ted got tired between second
and third and had to stop for a drink
There was the announcement that the
Kiwanians bad won. In the last in
ning, and the teama walked off the
field. The acorekeeper counted again,
and announced a tie, instead of a Ki
wanis victory, and the players who
hsd gone home to their dinners had to
be called on trie phone to finish tbt-fame.
was resumed, somebody carelessly
struck out, and the game was ended
after all, because it waa so dark, and
because it was threatening rain, and
because, and because, ana oh, yes,
and because..
Mercifully, the soorekeeper ne
glected to count errors. It was a
stroke of diplomacy and kindness on
his part and besides, he had only
one pencil.
The score by Innings was kept, and
the tale of the bitter encounter is
contained therein.
It must be mlded that Fred Olsen
and liny Tocum pitched for the Ki
wanians. with O'Donnell and Pink
Mnnerud catching. For the Lions, Shr
Huntington and Bob Earl alternated
on the mound and behind- the bat.
The bathing order, for the Kiwan
ians (historians take note) was:
Mnnerud, as, c; Immcl, Sb, sss O'Don
nell, c, Hb; Olsen, p, lb; okum, lb,
p; Hcndershott, If; White, 2b; Eel
ling, cf: Urey, rf.
The Lions (New York and Europe
an papors plense copy) lined up as
follows: Callahan, aa; Earl, c, p;
Huntington, c, p; Glass, cf; Donahue,
2b; Diamond. Sb; Robertson, If; Titus
lb: iPetera, rf.
It also might be ndded, since ad
ding got popular as the ncore mount
ed, that every player on each and
both teams scored at least once,
which makes an all-star cast for the
production. ,

It will be Hudkine' first shot at a
boxing title in the. eight years of his

vorite, the challenger was radiant
with confidence. Walker, too, was
confident, in top form and impatient
for the bell.
Attracted by the 'punching power
of the New Jersey bulldog and the
Nebraska wildcat, Chicago s boxing
Rial to today was crowded with fans
from all sections of the nation. While
they were at variance as to the win

CHICAGO. June 21. OP) No Im
mediate conclusion should be drawn
that the widely ballyhooed new tennis
stroke will help Big Bill Tilden and
has Davis cup team mates rout tne
French champions. Nor is any alarm
likelly to be reflected, about it in
Paris where the first line of defense
is still tottering along with Lacoste.
Cochet, Borotra and Brugnon. Tilden,
they say, has used the new stroke,
imparting greater speed, uncon
sciously. ,
The inference is that it would be
distinctly undesirable to tackle Big
Bill when he was fully conscious of
hiB suoer stroking power, magic touch
or what la it.

forthcoming matches at Wimbledon
and Paris depend on how well he con
serves his energy and keeps his strok
ing control in a succession of hard
matches.' The odds are against him.
They are" at least two, if not three,
to one and their names are Lacoste,
Cochet and Borotra. On any given
day Tilden has the Btuff to beat any
one of the Frenchmen but It takes
more than a new and secret stroke, if
any, to beat' two of them in a row.
