Ore FOR LOUIS; SAYS KAYO IN EIGHTH GRAND BEACH, Mich. June 11 AP) James J. Braddock, as ready today aa he ever will ba to defend his world's heavyweight champion ship, plunged Into his final ten days of traliilng with not a, worry on his mind. The last troublesome load waa lift' ed yesterday when the federal clrci'lt court of appeals In Philadelphia re fused to overrule Judge Ouy L.

Prom now until June 32, when Braddock faces his negro challenger, he will go through hla conditioning to retain the edge he haa attained, Whatever fears Braddock ' handlers have had of the champion leaving hla fight behind him In hla training camp dissipate after watching him worn, his dally routine of roadwork or boxing Is of such light nature that no adverse consequences are ex pected. Seldom does Braddock tear Into his ambitious sparring mates. Never haa he tried to knock them out or hurt them. Yesterday the champion did noth ing except walk nearby wooded trails and play nine holes of golf, turning In a nrat 46. He predicted he would knock out Louis before the finish of the eighth round of their scheduled 15 -round bout..

N. Y., June 23. In the big event on the Hudson river last season the mighty Wash ington navy rowed off with the var slty. Junlor-varalty and freshmen titles, to become the first school to ever score a three-way sweep. This year Coach Al Ulbrtckson has again built three apeedy water-wagons. This fact waa proven wben tbe Huskies won all three races from the California Bears In the Pacific coast regatta, with tbe freshmen and Junlor-varalty boats establishing new records on the Oakland eptuary course. And the ssme oarsmen who rowed undefeated "around the world" last season, climaxing the tour with an Olympic games victory In Berlin, are still manning the varsity shell. They won tne Pacific coast, national and Olympic titles In 1038.

In Newaon, the Sen ators are giving up a pitcher who. according to the record books, la hardly In the same league with Wea Ferrell, year after year. At the same time, Washington came out with an ace pitcher and a crack catcher easily one of the league's three beat In Rick Perrell, thereby plugging the one bole In the lineup olnce the season's opening gun. Setting aside the theoretical "tem perament" angle. In which Washing ton appeara to be getting rid of two manager's "headache" (Newsom and Chapman) and receiving only one In leturn (We Perrell) you find these facta In the records: . Ferrell and Newsom are both about 39, but the former has ten years ex perience to Buck's six. Ferrell. in his lut eight years, has averaged better than 20 victories per season. New som never has had a 20-game year. Laat year, when he won 1? and lost lb, was hla beat. This season both started poorly.
