TINY MERMAID COPS TITLE
EN SPRINGBOARD CONTEST
By Edward J. Nell
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
NEW YORK, July 19. (AP) The
men In the press box, probably most
of the 6,000 gathered under the
blazing sun around the big pool,
too, held their breaths and mutter
ed: "Now if she Just won't try any
thing tough . .
So the spindly mite of the diving
board, Mary Hoerger, 1 1 years old
now, 12 next month, promptly went
Into the toughest diving convulsion
of them all, a two-and-a-half for
ward somersault.
Over and over she whirled while
the big crowd gasped. Then she
straightened out, knifed Into the
water with scarcely a ripple. The
crowd burst out In a spontaneous
roar of delight, and the three-meter
springboard diving championship
went to Mary Hoerger, of Miami

vlckey of South Fork for three
rounds before losing the decision re
cently, will meet Dynamite Dunbar,
132, of the detachment, in a battle
that may produce a challenger lor
the new lightweight crown.
Pee Wee Bhelton. 118. of McKlnley,
will mix with French y Lequol, 119,
of Annie Springs, in a midget bout
that should prove fast and furious
affair.
Luchesl, 128, of Annie Springs,
and Hlnkle, 126, of China Flats, will
meet in the curtain raiser. Every
bout on the card is bringing together
boys noted for their gameness In the
ring and the bouts should be toe-to-toe
fighting from start to finish
CANCEL IT HERE
Manager "Hoosler" Hoffard of the
Medford Rogues is wandering the
streets today with a wild look in his
eye. Another colored team has taken
run-out powder on his baseball
teaml Some time ago the Detroit
Colored Giants cancelled a scheduled
game after handbills had been scat
tered all over southern Oregon, ana
now the Broadway Colored Clowns,
through their booking argent, W.
Bergh, of the Seattle Post-Intelli
gencer, have sent Hoffard the follow
ing letter, dated July 17.
"Because of circumstances that
they were unable to control, the
Broadway Colored Clowns will be
unable to play In Medford and they
will have to cancel your game. I am
very Borry about this, as I know
that you have been greatly Incon
venienced." Hoffard said today that the Clowns
must have got wind of, the fact that
Les Wolfe, Texan with the proverb
ial dislike of all net,.es In general,
was to pitch against them. He said
that If the Clowns play anywhere
In southern Oregon he will attach
the gate receipts for broken con
tract. Bed-Ridden Man

CHAIR THROWING
ENLIVENS PETE'S
PINNING OF SOOS
Johnny Soos, stocky choke and
chuckle artist from Indiana, fur
nished the fireworks In the double
main event wrestling match last
night at the Armory when he went
on a chalr-heavlng rampage In his
bout with Pete Belcastro. Italian
drop-klcker. The latter finally won
the hectic tussle with drop kicks
and a hammer lock, despite a back
Injury that nearly cost him the
match.
The Boos-Belcastro fracas was
scheduled, by the toss of a coin, to
precede the other main event bout.
In which Al Stecher of Canada won
from limber Les Wolfe of Texas, but
in excitement and action the former
tussle climaxed the evening's enter-1
talnment.
Prom the start both grapplers set
a whirlwind pace but stayed clean
until Soos made himself the villain
by slugging and kicking his color
ful opponent Pete, by this time the
strong favorite, retaliated with
hefty rabbit punch and then the
sparks began to fly.
Soos slugged and kicked Belcastro
out through the ropes, and fighting
off Referee Ray Frisble, took a run
ning Jump on his prostrate victim.
The fans, wild at seeing Belcastro
maltreated, surged around the ring,
one rlngslder throwing a chair that
hit Soos on the back of the head.
Soos picked up the weapon and
slammed It into the crowd, clipping
one of the spectators. Bill Tall Is of
Hilt, Calif., a blow on the back of
the neck that felled him momentar
ily. Tall Is, who denied he was the
original chair-thrower, was not bad
ly Injured.
It took the boxing commission,
who threatened to suspend Soos un-:
less he behaved himself, several min
utes to quiet the ruckus, and the
match proceeded.
Belcastro's back was too weak and :
he lost the Initial fall In 14 mln-1
utes of slugging, but regaining his1
strength in the second tumble, pin-1
ned the Indiana matman in eight i
minutes with drop kicks. He won the
final fall in five.
Al Stecher's 15 years of experience
and his stocky build proved big ob
stacles for Wolfe In the second half
of the main event, but with the aid
of his famous Iron legs the Texan
was taking care of himself admirably
until in a hard fall over the ropes
he landed on his back across the
edge of the platform and proved an
easy victim for the deciding tumble.
Stecher took the first fall with a
hammerlock In 15 minutes, and
Wolfe evened the count when he
brought his long legs into action and
applied a bottom-up rolling scis
sors. Roland Warren, Klamath Palls
Copco engineer, who took the place
of Johnny Goodman In the opening
bout, wrestled a speedy 20-mlnutc
draw with Floyd Wolfgang, local me-chanlc-grappler.
Wolfgang accepted
Warren's challenge for a finish
match.

SLANTS W
Enough thrills and excitement
have been packed into the first half
of 1035 to fill an ordinary sports
year. Every sport in the book has
done Its share toward making this
a banner year.
There has been more than usual
activity In the boxing world with
Jimmy Braddock's surprise victory
over Max Baer In the world's cham
pionship contest standing out as
cue of the biggest upsets In the
history of heavyweight title battles.!
The "story-book" comeback of Brad
dock from the ranks of fistic dls-1
cards to the highest honors the ring
game offers thrilled followers of the
sport.
The sensational rise of Joe Louis
Injected new life Into the heavy
weight division. Climaxing his march
of 23 consecutive victories, 19 of
them knock-outs, by stopping the
giant -Prlmo Camera in six rounds,
Louis proved that he could punch
and box and was ready to make his
bid for the top honors.
In the lighter divisions, also, ring
history was written. Tony Canzonerl
beat Lou Ambers to win the light
weight title vacated by Barney Ross
and thus became the first light
weight to regain the championship
In that class. Barney Ross and. Jim
my McLarnin met In a rubber match
with Ross regaining his welterweight
title on a decision. Like' the first
two meetings of Ross and McLarnin,
their last fight left the customers
divided In the opinions as to who
won.
Moody Comeback Thrills
Mrs. Helen Wills Moody stole
march on the tennis public, when.
after months of secret practice, she
announced that she was going abroad
to attempt a comeback on the courts.
Her efforts are being watched with
great Interest for teunis enthusiasts

youngsters getting their first taste
of International competition on for
eign courts, Gene Mako and Donald
Budge. Budge proved one of the
sensations at Wimbledon and bols
tered our cup chances considerably.
Track and field athletics this
spring came through with Its share
of sensational performances. Jesse
Owens, of Ohio State, stole the
spotlight with his four-ply triumphs
In record -.breaking fashion, topping
them off with an amazing leap of
26 feet, 8 'i inches in the broad
Jump. Keith Brown, of Yale, wound

The failure of the Dean boys to

of the race, while the Giants rushed
along in front, thanks to great
pitching, and threaten to make a
runaway of the National league race.
The Cleveland Indians failed to
show the strength they promised,
mostly because they were victims of
unfortunate "breaks." The loss of
Earl Averill coming on top of Knick
erbocker's enforced absence weakened
the Cleveland entry.
The National open golf champion
ship at Oakmont left golfers with
plenty to talk about for some time
to come. Sam Parks, an unknown,
shot a 299 which was good enougn
to beat the fine field entered. Walter
Hagen's magnificent bid for the
title the veteran only missed by a
couple of strokes was one of the
features of the tournament.
