For this is the night huge, ugly Maurice Tillct, the French Angel, wrestles one Crusher Jim Casey, an Irish lad, in the top event of Promoter Mack Llllord'i weekly grapple program at tho Klamath armory. The monstrous man all 276 pounds of him has been hailed as variously the world's best and most fearsome groppler and ono of the world's most unusual anthropological specimens, Five feet, eight Inches tall, tho Angel boasts a chest exceeding 60 in ches in circumference, stubby legs affixed to a super-long torso and a massive, shaven head. Harvard university savantB have dubbed him the closest ap proach to the Neanderthal man of antiquity they've ever seen. As a grapplcr, the grotesque Frenchman won 180 straight matches In England before com ing to this country In 1039. Here he's been rassllng with the same success from coast to coast. Lll lard said today that the Angel possesses a complete bag of mat tricks in addition to Ills- famed bear hug which several years ago busted Sockeye Jack McDonald's shoulder right smack in the mid dle oC Minneapolis. Last night he defeated Mc Donald again In Mcdford on two straight falls. In facing Casey tonight,, the Angel will be meet ing a new opponent and a 219 pound toughie from the county of Klllarney on the ould sod.

He said that tic kets, on sale at two local pool parlors and one drug store, will probably bo gone by nightfall. oupporung me Angci-v-asey fracas are two other bouts, as usual.

Ted Williams, Reiser Tied In 'Big' Race NEW YORK, July 28 (P) This time last year the National league was suffering tinges of embarrassment whenever bat ting percentages were consid ercd because Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox was burning tha fences with a .400 plus average. But it Is even-Stephen now with Williams leading the Amer ican league and Pete Reiser of Brooklyn topping the National with identical marks of .354. Williams took a big lead over Joe Gordon fo the New York Yankees during the last week and Reiser shaded Ernie Lorn bardl of the Boston Braves to suggest that tho 1942 batting championships in both major leagues may go to the same hit ters that won them last year. Gordon, after setting the pace much of the season in his cir cuit, has slipped to' .338 and Lombard), himself a ' former batcing champ, backed down to .340. WELL TRAVELED FORT BENNING, Ga.

By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer Alway:i a bridesmaid, but nev er a bride seems to describe the Boston Red Sox. They tremble and falter every time they are led to the first place altar of the American league, but they are as full of fury as a woman scorned when ever their right to second place is encroached upon. Second place was at stake yes terday as they opened a four game series with the Cleveland Indians. The two foes were dead locked in games won and lost reckoning, but the Sox had an edge in percentage, .558 to .556 The Bostons approached the fray with more seriousness than they showed when they had a chance to wrest the lead from the Yankees a few weeks ago. Manager Joe Cronin shook up his batting order, -moving Ted Williams to the third spot and installing himself in the clean up slot, and he opened with his ace pitcher,. Cecil (Tex) Hugh son, the tall righthander who had won ten and lost three. Although these maneuvers didn't seem to have much bear ing on the game Cronin didn't get a hit in five times at bat and Hughson was pelted for an even dozen safeties Boston won 8-5. This was the only game in the major leagues that escaped a rude weatherman. As a result, three doubleheaders were sched uled for the national league to day with attention centered on the St. Louis Cardinals' invasion oi Brooklyn. 6T Enter Inland Empire Net Meet SPOKANE, July 28 (iP).

Lord Byron Fires 67 to Earn $2500 Nelson Whip Heafnar by Four Strokes for Victory In Tarn O'Shanter Open By CAYLE TALBOT CHICAGO, July 28 W) By ron Nelson, ono of tho greatest of modern linksmen, was home ward bound today with $2500 In his hip pocket, once again hav ing demonstrated that when th big money is on the line he vir tually is unbeatable. Tho demonstration came as the grand finale to that golfing circus known as the Tarn o'Shan tor $15,000 open tournament, Yesterday Nelson crushed big Clayton Hcafner of Durham, N. C, by four strokes in their 18-hole playoff for the cham pionship of the dizziest of all golf events. The pair had tied at the end of the regular 72 holes, with totals of 280. As though to atone for his un accountable lapse of the pre vious day, when he soared to an inglorious 77 on the fourth round, the ex-Texan took Tarn o'Shanter's soggy acres apart with a 67 five under par to send Heafner down for the count. Not that Heafner weakened. The big fellow stayed In there gamely all the way to score his 71 Aside from his one terrible round, Nelson shot these scores at Tarn o'Shanter: 67-71-67270. Yesterday Nelson was out lri 33, back in 34. He was down to Heafner only once during the play-off. Two up at the turn, he was converting it into a rout to ward tho close. Probably the match was de cided as early as the fifth hole where Nelson, already 1-up, blasted into the hole from about 35 feet for an eagle two to beat Heafner's birdie three. After that experience Heafner must have realized it was no use. FIGHTS Br Tha Aaaoolatad lraaa PlTTRl"Ki;i( Anton rhrUtnfnrMLrt Qvon Cierrianrl. outpointed Mow Brown,' I.I. Jtehrrsport, Pa.
