Robinson Shoots for 122nd
Win Against
By Sid Feder
New York, July 81. (P) The longest winning streak In
modern fight history Ray Robinson's run of 121 in a row col
lides with Sammy Angott In Madison Square Garden tonight,
and there's more than an outside chance that the collision won't
do It a bit of good.
Although the skinny Harlem I
hammer is 1 to 2 in the betting
to stay on the track that has
left him ail-victorious ever since
he first drew on a glove as an
amateur especially since he al
ready holds a decision over An
gott Sammy Is a specialist at
upsetting guys In return
matches.
Sammy likes to fight from a
half crouch, crowd his way in
close and then boff his opponent
about the mid-section at short
range the shorter the better.
Robinson, on the other hand, Is
a long, lean stringbean who
wants to stand off a way and
pitch his high hard ones.
In all his fights, he has shown
little relish for the crowding
kind of rival and Sammy Is
one of the crowjng-est.
Sammy a lightweight crown
won't be on the line in this one
it Is "stashed" away until he
meets Allie Stolx again. Yet.
Promoter Mike Jacobs figures
the fight presents enough of a
nose-smashing party so that
some 15.000 of the faithful, rep
resenting a gate of over $30,000
will be sitting In on the shindig.
Robinson's long winning run
has been piled up in 89 amateur
and 32 professional outings.

Br Judson Bailer
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Fans probably don't pay a
great deal of attention to the
baseball standings these days
because the New York Yankees
and Brooklyn Dodgers are mak
ing runaways of the major
league pennant races.
Some newspapers in the spirit
of good clean fun and to pro
mote interest in the standings of
the clubs even have turned them
upside down, putting the two
Philadelphia clubs on top, or
nave separated the Yanks and
Dodgers from the rest of their
leagues.
Maybe it will be a surDrise.
therefore, to point out that the
Uodgers have won 70 games and
lost only 29 for a percentage of
.U( and stand a good chance of
becoming the first team in 33
years in the National league to
finish above the ,700 percentage
level.
Cubs Crushed
The Dodgers added another
scalp last night with a 9-2 con
quest of the Chicago Cubs, who
were crushed with a six-run rally
in tne linn inning.
This increased Brooklyn's lead
to 8VS games over the idle St.
Louis Cardinals. The Yankees
also were idle, but their Ameri
can league margin was increased
to 12 ',4 games as the Boston Red
Sox dropped a 4-3 decision to
the Cleveland Indians.
The Washington Senators cap
tured their third straight from
the St. Louis Browns 11-8 and
cooled off the Browns' second
place hopes effectively.
Pinky Higgins drove In six
runs as Detroit downed the
Philadelphia Athletics 11-9 In
the first game of a doubleheader
but the A's slugged their way to
a 7-6 triumph in the nightcap.
The Cincinnati Reds were held
to four hits by Earl Navlor and
Ike Pearson and lost a 4-2 ver

Baavers Beaten by
Solons, 9-4; Move
To Oakland Tonight
By the Associated Prase
A busy week-end of baseball
Is on the grill for the Coast
league.
Three doubleheadera are slat
ed for tonight, and four of the
clubs face twin bills also on both
Saturday and Sunday.
The second-place Solons, who
defeated Portland, 9 to 4, last
night for their only win of a
three-game series, play host to
the Seals who traveled from Los
Angeles yesterday.
Blix Donnelly pitched the
Solon victory, giving up 10 hits
and fanning six batters to tie
Seattle's Dick Barrett for the
league-leading figure of 124
strikeouts.
Sacramento touched Ad Lls
ka and Bob Fitzke for 14 safe
ties. Eddie Lake homered and
tripled for two Solon scores
while Everette Thompson and
Deb Garms each collected three
hits in five tries.
Tonight Portland moves to
Oakland to try to leave the cel
lar at the expense of the Oaks,
who nosed out Hollywood, 4 to
3, last night and moved up a
notch from next to last place.
San Diego and Seattle split a
doubleheader, the Padres taking
the seven-inning opener, 3 to 2,
but losing the afterpiece, 4 to '7
by reason of six errors and 14
Rainier hits.
