CLKV ISLAND. O., Sept. 1 S. tTP)
Ceorge liurns, veteran of Hi ma
jor league baseball seasons and in
1 HL'fi the American league's most
valuable player, has annitunecd his
refusal to report to the New York
Yankees, to whom he was sold at
the waiver price by the Cleveland
club.
Mums regarded the deal as an
Injustice inasmueh'-'as he had asked
for his unconditional release hv
order to negotiate for a manager
ial job with a minor league club.
Waivers were asked nt his roijuost,
be said, but he wished them with
drawn when, the New York club
refused to waive him o"t of the
league.
In addition, Hums said his w.fo
was seriously ill and he wanted to
remain with her in Cleveland.
1 After driving out (14 two-base
bits to establish a new world's
record and winning the American
league's most valuable player
award in t !(LM1, Burns' hitting
steadily fell off until this season
ho was used mostly as a pinch
bitter.

I.OB A NT. ELKS, Cal., Sept. 1S.
(P) The Examiner says today that
Mickey Walker, the middleweight
champion, has oeen matched for a
title bout with Tommy Lough ran,
light heavyweight champion, at
Madison Square Clarden some time
in November. . ,
The announcement came through
Jack Kearns, Walker's manager, as
the fighter and his manager hoard
ed a train for Chicago. Kearns is
reported to have said that, while
his tlittic.ulties with Itickard were
not over, the New York promoter
nevertheless will handle the bout.
Loughran, Kearns said, will prob
ably get STri.Oon as his share of the
match. Ast for Walker, Kearns
said he was. not nearly as much
interested in the money as a "shot
at the title." A definite date for
the l)ou t will probably he deter
mined upon Kearns' arrival in Now
York.
