PAGE THREE Lomski and Sawyer All Set for Main Event Tonight at Armory 0 ) TOP-NOTCH CARD L Four-Round Curtain Raiser Starts Fireworks at 8:30 Two Six-Round Bouts y , Before Headliners Meet Leo Lomski, 185, Aberdeen veteran of 122 ring battles 58 of them won by knockout will step Into the Armory ring tonight facing Prank Sawyer, 210-pound Canadian, In the main event on Promoter Mack LUlard's boxing card, a favorite de spite the fact that he will give away considerable poundage. Sawyer, Canadian title claimant, will have an advantage of youth, reach and weight and Is also rated for ability to "take 'em.' His confi dence equals that of the "Aberdeen assassin," and as both fighters favor the slam-bang mode of milling, fight followers who saw them work out last night at the Bear Creek playground predict the match will never go the scheduled ten round. A pair of "mystery men" will open the Armory show tonight at 8:30, :n a four-round set-to, to be followed by Lonnle Dixon and Terry Kllleen in a six-rounder which Is touted as certain to please the fans. Circus Red Howe, pride of Marshfleld, will battle Al Anderson, Portland heavy, in another six-frame affair as a semi-final. The headline brawl brings together two men, who although fighting on numerous coast cards, have never been matched before. Promoter LU lard looks upon the fight os a "na tural" as both are addicted to wad ing in and slugging rather than spar ring for an opening to shoot and re treat. Both will take one If oppor tunity presents to retaliate. Lomski bears many scars as a re sult of his style of fighting. His right "maulle" has been broken numerous times, his nose has been pancaked and his eyebrows bear witness to blows which have cut deep. Despite his fourteen years In the racket he claims no opponent has ever laid him cold. Hood River.

Except for the pitching staff, the club that today looks like an even bet to race on unchecked to the pennant la the same that finished second a year ago. Earl Combs Is back at his old out field post, playing some of the greatest ball of his career. The Yanks yesterday made It three out of four from Cleveland, 7 to 6. to give Danny MacFayden his first victory in a Yankee uniform. The Athletics made It three out of four over Detroit, 10 to 6, and kept pace with the leaders as Jim mle Foxx propelled his 24th and 25th home runs of the year. As Washing ton was dropping another to St. Louis, the victory boosted the Mack men Into a tie for second place. The St. Louis Browns' 17-3 victory over Washington was their seventh In eight engagement this year. The Boston Red Sox beat Ted Lyons, and the Chicago White Sox. 5 to 4. In 11 Innings. Philadelphia and Cincinnati sup plied all the action In the National league by dividing a doubleheader.

Especially Is this the case when the strong hand has bid no trump and there Is no certain re-entry In the weak hand to make the long suit good. "The four horsemen" will shoot the works as much as any other team of four w.hen the occasion calls for It, but they can be safely conservative on occasion.

The Seals tied the score at one-all in the eighth, and each team scored once In the twelfth. In the thirteenth the Seals filled the bases with a single and two bunts.

Nei ther finished the game, Lleber re placed Bowler In the ninth when the latter grew wild, and Baecht was lifted for a pinch httter, Herrmann finishing and getting credit for the victory.

The largest week-day crowd of the season saw Seattle beat Portland, 4 to 3. Home runs In the seventh by Pete Scott and Chick Ellsworth put the Indians over the top. After the heavy hitting.
