Pedro Brazil, Pete Belcastro Tussle
On Semi-Windup; Joe, Sockeye Clash
This is the night Klamath grapplo bugs and curiosity seek
ers have been waiting for.
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.
Lillard said thore'll be stand
ing room only in both the main
floor and galleries of the stolid
brick armory. 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. The opener pits McDon
ald against phlegmatic Joe Cor
bett, the Boston Australian.
In the evening's seml-windup
Pedro Brazil and Pete Belcastro
face off in a renewal of their
rivalry which began last week
when the Weed Italian punished
tho Brazilian with virtually
everything in the bad book for
a very unpopular decision.

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.

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.

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.
