Allen Lacombe. the No. 1 boxing promoter from Cairo to Teheran, types this report . . . "Boxing in the FGC has been pretty good in the last month or so. I took 22 boys on tour of the command. The camps we appeared in did not have boxing teams before we went there, but as soon as we left all of the camps started to organize teams . . There is only one place that we can fight during the summer and that Is Teheran. It is nice and cool up in the mountains where the camps are, so once a month I have to put' on 12 fights tip there, matching boys from all over the command. NEW GUINEA Recently received copies of the "Cockatoo," which describes itself as "the leading and most widely read morning newspaper in New Guinea," include com plete resumes of major league baseball performances as well as racing results at "Fresh Mea dows," a track where toy horses are raced with the aid of dice . . . And an accompanying let ter from Editor T5 Clifford Garding says: "In our particu lar, but not peculiar, situation, we are unable to participate in athletics because the jungle is hardly the place for diamonds, f courts, courses' and .athletic I fields. The sea is our play ground and water sports are the main diversion." ENGLAND From a Canadian newspaper comes information that a Can adian army cricket team will play an American team on the famed cricket grounds at Lords, July 20 . . . The match already has led to speculation in Lon don papers as to whether the game will help Canadians and Americans forget the more raucous game of baseball when they return home . . . From this distance, it seems more likely that staid Londoners never will forget the Canadian - American game. t t NORTH AFRICA Chief Warrant Officer Frank Hartley reports as follows to his old paper, the Louisville Times, on racing In North Africa: "It's confusing enough to buy a ticket which reads 20 francs, but which sells for 60 francs, or $1.20. It's even worse inside . . . If you're lucky, you can find through the use of sign language and GI French that favorites aren't posted and there aren't, as a result, any opening odds . . . So long as the race is going on, you can imagine that you're back in the States, because usually the races are good and if s just as difficult to see the backstretch as it is 'at home'." Browns on Top Again After Drop Luke's "Morning Glories" Grab 6-5 Game From Yanks After Poor Eastern Trip By JACK HAND Asioclated Preii Sports Writer If you've been counting the St. Louis Browns out of the American league pennant race because of their poor eastern trip, better revise the figures and look again.. Luke Sewell has them back in first place today. After winning their first nine, the Browns started to slip, blew an entire series in Philadelphia and fell off the top. St. Louis dreams of a Sportsman's park scries faded and they began to tab Luke Sewell's crew "morn ing glories." Since leaving Missouri soli over two weeks ago the Browns, only team never to win a pen nant, have taken only five of 14 games. They had lost seven out of 10 to their eastern rivals before they grabbed a 6-5 edse over the Yankees yesterday at New York. But Joe McCarthy's crew has Deen dropping too. It was the first time the world champions had seen the Brown ies this season and Nelson Potter gave them an eyeful with a neat six-hit job while Mark Christ- man and Al Zanlla banged out their first homers. Bud Meth eny and Ed Levy also hit for the circuit but couldn't save Atley Donald from his second loss and the New Yorkers from their fourth straight defeat. Detroit tumbled Washington into third place behind Johnny Gorslca's tight seven-hit twirling as Rudy York banged out two hits and drove in half the runs of the Tigers' 4-1 edge. Word that Catcher Al Evans had re ceived a medical discharge from the navy and soon would rejoin the Senators was the only -good news for Washington fans. Philadelphia's luck continued to run bad as Cleveland's Al Smith hung up his first triumph of the year by a 8-1 count, scat tering nine' hits. Mike Ryba capped off three hitless innings as a relief hurler by singling home the winning run in the last of the 12th for Boston's 3-2 shade over Chicago. Pittsburgh swept the series from Brooklyn in the rvauonai, advancine into -third place-on a 5-2 victory. Vince DiMaggio's third homer was the big wallop of a four-run spurt in the seventh. Mort Cooper- came up with a sore elbow after two trying in nings as Jim Tobin pitched Bos ton to a 4-3 nod over tne.&i. Louis Cardinals whose lead was sliced to three and a half gamts when Cincinnati outslugged the Phils, 7-5. It was thefirst ap pearance lor iiyae .ino-iuw Shoun of the Reds after his near perfect job Monday. ,- Chicago collected .only three hits but they were enough 'for a 3-2 verdict over New. York with the help of Hugh ,L,uDy s error with the bases loaqea. BASEBALL SCORES Salem Rolls Easy .

Lipscomb Topples Klier By JOHN FOSTER Gorgeous George Wagner won the right to meet Paavo Katonen. Pacific coast light heavyweight champion, next week at the ar- ; mory, by drubbing Fete Belcas- tro, the weed Assassin, in tno main event of last night's week ly mat card. It was a wild, fist-flying affair, with Wagner getting the first fall with a series of well-aimed whacks to the head and a body press. A wee bit leary but out for hi l r-, all n MMinlni, Dal IUSV AO. Ul Vila A V. returned all the battering he re ceived in the first round and after a few minutes lapsed he let So with some fisticuffs to reorge's head and a couple of body slams and fell on top to gain the count. . That evened the bcore. The fi nal round was ready. ' Things were going even-Stephen, with each party trying to pound out the brains of the oth er, and it looked like the Weed Assassin had a chance for the fi nal count when he kicked Wag ner out of the ropes. When Pret ty Boy started to get into the ring again, Pete upped his legs in the air for his flying dropkick but all he did was stop in mid-air after hitting the top ring rope and came tumbling down on his back. George saw his chance, climbed into the ring, put in a couple of swats to the groin and Pete was finished for the eve ning. Buck Lipscomb, a meanie A-l, tried everything in the book against hapless well-liked Jack Kizer of Vancouver in the semi windup. Many times it looked like Buck would swat his way to an early finish but young Kizer would return all the hair-pulling and what have you and stay in there pitching. Three rounds passed with the Vancouver lad usually on the de fensive and finally after the fourth bell had rung, Lipscomb wrapped his short arms around Kizer's head and proceeded to swat merrily at his Adam's apple. That finished Kizer for the eve ning with Buck winning by one fall. " Herb Parks and Harold David son fought to a draw in the open er. Parks, nursing a beautiful sunburn- received HERE in Klam ath, won the first fall with an abdominal twist or a "sucker" hold as Parks puts it. It's a back bender which causes quite a bit of grief and Davidson was glad to let it go at that. Davidson took the other fall by getting Herb a little groggy and grabbing both his feet and twirl ing -him around and dropping him for the count. So'' it looks like - strutting George Wagner will tangle with the Pacific ' coast champion, Paavo Katonen, next week in the main event. - That- is -the only definite - bout announced and a sell-out crowd is expected.
