Monroe has been cleaning the boys right and left for almost two years, and no fighter, except White, has been able to stand up against him. White and Monroe went to a draw it the Elks' smoker here several weeks ago, and fans have been clamoring for a return bout since. The winner of tonight's fight will b matched here with some outstand ing lightweight out of either Port land or Frisco, Llllard said this morn. ln. Negotiations have already been started to bring the Portland Chlna ' man. Ah Wing Lee, here to meet the winner.

Two years ago, Monroe fdught to a draw with Wing Lee In Marehfleld. and although Lee has Improved since that fight, Monroe has also Improved, i and Monroe has been unable to get return fight with. Lee. Lee's re fusal to meet Monroe again Is evi dence, Llllard said, that Lee has a high regard for Monroe's ability. Although opinion about the sport centers today and yesterday was that Monroe would take White, still it must be remembered that White held Monroe to a draw In their first fight after White had been In hibernation for almost a year.

LUCKY BREAK FOR By HUGH FULLERTON, JR. Associated Press Sports Writer. A bit of tough luck for Buddy Myer. regular Washington second baseman, has turned out to be rare good fortune for youthful Bob Boken and the Senators have profited there by to the extent of being the only eastern club in the American league to get better than an even break In the current western Invasion. Considered Just a promising player whose major league career was some where In the future, Boken got his big chance last Saturday when Myer was hit on the head by one of Whitlow Wyatt's pitches and was forced out of action. Since then the rookie has played four full games, made nine hits, driving In nine runs, and provided the winning wallop In two games. With the Kansas City Blues of the American Association last year he was only a .380 hitter, but he drove In 113 runs with 180 4) its. In addi tion, his second major league hit drove in the winning run In the Senators' 13-lnnlng duel with the Athletics April 30. Monday Bob crashed a home run in the 12th inning to give Washing ton a 10-8 victory over St. Louis and yesterday he walloped a single that climaxed a nlnth-lnnlng rally against the same club and won again for the Senators, 7 to 5. Only one other game was played yesterday and that saw the 7-0 down fall of the Pittsburg Pirates. National league leaders, before the curving of Fred Frankhouse and the slugging of his Boston teammates.

Hard hitting on the part of the Oilers, and ragged fielding by Lam port's accounted for the lop-sided score. Chet Leonard's Oilers consists mainly of the players who comprised the championship Associated Oilers for the flrat half. Tonight's games will be between the senior high squad and Jennlng's Tire, and between Your Office Boys tnd the Active club LEVERETTE BESTS SCH IN DUBS' Like Napoleon at Waterloo, Orln Schenck met an entirely unexpected defeat at the hands of Walter Lever ette In their match, played yester day, in the duffer's tourney now underway at the Rogue Valley Golf club.

The win was the first In dication of. promise the sophomore studded preppers had given, other than a marked Improvement from match to match. Swamped In their first start, 13-3. they looked only slightly Improved, dropping their sec ond start 5-1, a bit better In losing their third tilt 5-3. and finally cul minating a season-long effort to gain the win side of the ledger with yes terday's win. It was a win in the face of the strongest sort of competition, as the newly organised St. Marys team wns bolstered with some strong name. Uniformity and team play were the factors that gained the win over a lineup that held an edge in the sin gles department, but the high aggre gation won two singles and two dou bles events for victory. The win came only after a slow start as left-handed Joe Patton, who boasts the best won and lost record ever established In Oregon high school net circles; John Reddy, Gonzaga university number two man, and Dick Lewis, St. Marys fine all-round athlete, rolled up single wins In short order. Surprising young Cleo Hicks. and Brown, a pair of sophomores. scored wins to keep within hailing distance, and then worked into dou bles combinations with Campbell and Ottoman to win again and sew up the contest. It was a gratifying showing for B. M. Klrtley, tennis director, who now sees for his charges possibility of stronger showing against Ashland, Grants Paw and Klamath Falls, all remaining on the locals' schedule. Parallel to this announcement, Klrt ley released the schedule for the in terclass matches billed for today with the sophomores vising with the jun iors In the opening tussle.

San Frnnrlaeo Sarazen Lays Down Six To Start the Golfing By GENE SARAZEM. World Golf Champion. (As Told to Alan Gould) Most golfers start out all wrong In the springtime. Generally, they fall to look their clubs and equipment over properly, take their stance and swing too much for granted, over-do at the outset and then begin to wonder what's wrong with their game. They wouldn't go Into their busi ness that way, but because golf is play, they fall to apply the simplest and moat obvious fundamentals re quired to gtve them the most enjoy ment out of It. The Six Essentials. I would list the essential things for the average player during the first few weeks as follows: 1. Before starting out at all, have the pro look over your swing, detect faults you don't suspect and give you the proper advice. 3. Protect your hands against blis tering by taking things easily, unless you have been fore-warned enough to have practiced swinging something heavy or using hand exercises. 3. Inspect your clubs closely, for repairing or conditioning. It may save you money later. 4. After you have played a few weeks. If you are still slicing or hook ing when you don't want to, flubbing those Important pitch shots or putt ing poorly, have the pro take another good look at your game. 5. Pay special attention to your grip and stance; these are the most Important factors In any golfer's per formance. The left hand must be Over far enough so that you can see all four knuckles. Remember that one. 6. Be sure your shoes are all right. comfortable and In good condition. A golfer travels on his feet and noth ing will do him more harm than being poorly shod. Hook Deliberately at Start. I put In hours of practice myself before attempting my first round of spring golf. Of course, It Is business with me and the ordinary player doesn't want to do that. In fact he can't. But, In proportion. If he fol lows my suggestions, he will get bet- (ft-fl "Thera'a mora room, a7 riQht And th upholtiery it otrtaJnly baiter."'
