Jewish Fighter Adds Welter

weight Crown Referee
Casts Deciding Vote
NEW YORK, May 20. (AP) Ed'
ward O. Foster, of Providence. R. I.
president of the National Boxing al
locution, announced today he had
suspended Barney Roe, lightweight
and new welterweight champion, for
failure to honor a contraot lp Fort
Worth, Texas.
By ALAN GOULD
AMOdated Press Sporta Editor
NEW YORK, May 30. (AP) Blaolc-
haired, flashing-eyed Barney Rosa,
aensatlonal Jewish fighter born on
New York's teeming East Side but
reared to ring greatness aa a product
of Chicago's West Bide Ohetto, stood
out today aa a double champion on
a pinnacle never before scaled In
boxing history.
The 36-year-old Chicago youth.
with a speed that was as dazzling
s the courage with which he slugged
toe to toe with his hard-nittuig rival.
thrilled a vast crowd in Madison
Sauare Garden bowl, Long Island,
last night by battering Jimmy Mc
Larnln to defeat In IS stirring rounds
and thereby added the world's wel
terweight championship to the light
weight title he has held for a year.
Blxty-flve thousand fans, nearly
filling the arena, roared their ac
claim aa the gallant youngster who
ended the domination of McLarnln
over a long line o( Jewish boxers
with a rousing finish and shattered
fistic precedent that has been long.
standing.
It was not a one-sided victory for
Ross, nor without Its dispute after
a savage duel from which both
emerged bleeding and somewhat bat
tered. Two of the three officials
gave the lightweight king a wide
margin, and to the majority of ob
servers it appeared that Bounding
Barney had decisively outboxed Mc
Larnln. Referee Eddie Forbes cast the de
ciding vote In favor of Ross after
the two Judges, Tom O'Rourke, old
time manager and promoter, and
iarold Barnes, disagreed.
There was no doubt In Forbes'
mind, however, for the veteran ref
eree scored 13 for Ross, scored the
first even and gave only one, the
13th, to McLarnln.
McLarnln was penalized by both
Forbes and Barnes for landing low
punches. Under the rules of the
state athletic commission, violation
of the code, such as hitting below
the belt, Is automatically cause for
loss of the round, regardless of what
else may happen. In at least four
rounds the fourth, ninth, eleventh
and 13th the Irishman was warned
by Forbes for falling to keep his
punches In the proper cone.
On the Associated Press score sheet
Ross was credited with nine rounds,
Including the second to seventh In
clusive1, and the last three. The
first was scored even and the ninth
to 13th were tallied for McLarnln.
Ross won, regardless of all con
troversial angles, because he outboxed
McLarnln from start to flnlah, took
the sturdy Irishman's stlffest punches
without backing up and landed the
cleaner, more effective blows. Against
a rival outweighing him nearly five
pounds, with dynamite In his right
hand and the record of being "poi
son" to all Jewish lightweights, Ross
gave a dazzling exhibition of defen
sive skill and footwork, In addition
to an ability to hold his own In any
two-fisted exchange.
Before McLarnln was able to solve
bis rival's flashing style and untangle
himself from a succession of swift
left Jabs and hooks to the head, Ross
had taken a commanding lead. For
the first seven rounds Barney's speed,
the ease with which he blocked or
dodged McLarnln's most earnest
swings, meanwhile countering with
swift darting shots to the head, gave
the Jewish boy an astonishing advan
tage. For five rounds, thereafter,
the lightweight champion fought de
fensively, with flashes of slugging
willingness, aa McLarnln tried ag
gressively and desperately to turn
the tide, but Ross rallied to out
punch the tiring Irishman through
out the last three rounds, himself
a youthful master of rlngcratt.
The crowd that saw ring history
made was the greatest to attend a
fight In two years and marked a
spectacular comeback In the boxing
Industry, which has been at low ebb
since 1933. The gate receipts, esti
mated by promoters at 338,OO0, also
marked a new high for a two-year
period and represented the biggest
figure for anything outside the heav
ier classes since Benny Leonard and
Lew Tendler were packing them In
over ten years ago.
McLarnln was stripped of the wel
ter title he won leu than a year ago
from Young Corbett III. McLarnln
knocked out Corbett In less than a
round at Los Angeles. The Irishman's
last defeat was by Lou Broulllard In
1093 and he hadn't lost a fight In
New York since Billy Petrolle beat
him In 1030.

Roaming over the excellent but none
the less grueling Oswego Country
club course, a field of 01 golf play
ers today stroked their way through
the second 18 holes of the 36-hole
qualifying round In the annual Ore
gon State Golf association champion
ship tournament.
The field of 61 was the smallest
In several years. At the end of the
36 holes today, the 32 low men will
have qualified. It was believed, on
the basis of yesterday's scores, that a
score of 176 would put a player In
the championship flight.
Johnny Robblns of Portland, de
fending champion, led the field In
the first 18 holes with a 74. Dr. O.
P. Willing, Portland veteran cam
paigner, has a 76, and Les Nichols
of Lake Oswego shot a 77, as did Bob
