Promoter Mack Lillard Presents-
Tonight at the Klamath armory. Mack Lillard, the head man
of Gladiator s UUliy, will presem uiree mum
torrid, scintillating, colossal, rassling tilts. And
.A,,II Kb nratti' ffnnd. too.
The hair-raiser of the night s card will pit Georgie Wagner,
God's gift to women, against ueorges uuscur,
the Adonis of the northwest circuit. With wild
wimmen shrieking and the gendarmes ready to
close in at any time to prevent mat mayhem,
the two gougefs are ready to go to any and all
lengths to put the chill to each other.
Georgie states that he will guzzle his opponent
with such prompt dispatch that it will hardly be
worth Dusctte's time to walk to the ring and
that Announcer Jack Franey had better be pre
pared to put in a priority call for a wooden
overcoat and a stretcher. One would expect
Dusettc to be trembling like a turkey before
Thanksgiving Day, but Georges seems to be
notably free from worry at the dire threats of
The Toast of the Coast.
In fact, he savs Wagner is nothing but a big creampuff and
that he is saving 'him for dessert to top off his dinner of horse
shoe nails and thumb tacks. All this verbal baiting paves the
way for much ill feeling between the two boys. In other words,
they just don't like each other, so there!
In the semi-windup. Antone Leone, an oyster free of pearls
from Oyster Bav, N. Y., will attempt to continue his winning
ways by sloughing Baby-face Klingman into oblivion. Leone has
a method that is all his own to garner his victories. After peer
ing balefully at his rival, he will drop to the deck on his knees
and as his opponent eyes him questioningly, Antone will bring
one up from the rosin to send his puzzled and hapless rival
reeling across the ring. ... . , , , ,. . ,
We figure mavbe Leone is just downright fooling us and that
u.kon. ha ii hrnueht nn down in the "dear old southland"
among corn pones, grits and fried chicken, and that he learned
his peculiar tactics from observing a possum in its native abode.
We don't know it s just a thought.
In the opening scuffle Kenny Ackles tackles Tex Hager. Both
boys have shown lots of ability in previous tussles here and may
be depended upon to furnish plenty of action. The curtain goes
up at 8:30 p. m., with Wally Moss scheduled to arbitrate the
clambake. ' '

Boston, Cincinnati Move
Into First Division Of
Their Respective Leagues
By JACK HAND
Associated press Sports Writer
Joe Cronin's Boston Red Sox
and Bill McKechnie's Cincinnati
Reds today qualify as the come
back kids bv makine the first
division of their respective
leagues aner a rocky start.
Boston rocketed into the se
lect circle by copping 13 of 18
games during an extended Fen
way Park stand and Cincy crept
out of the dark regions wilh 11
wins in their last 12 starts.
Neither the Sox nor Reds were
considered pennant contenders
last spring and their early sea
son showings appeared to justify
the experts' form charts. But
with both leagues shaking down
into wide open scrambles, both
can be important factors. i
Boston Meets Yankees
Terrific Rain Sweeps
Churchill Downs Track
Racing Strip Turned Into Sloppy
Mess; More Rain Predicted Today
By CHARLES DUNKLEY
LOUISVILLE, Ky.. June 8 () The breath-taking two min
ute drama of the 71st Kentucky Derby unfolds tomorrow with
the prospect of the first muddy track slnco 1B29 when llttlo
Clyde Van Duscn wallowed to victory through splashing mud
and water.
A terrific rain swept Churchill Downs yesterday, stopping
shortly aflor noon. It quickly turned the racing strip into a
sloppy, brown-colored mess, fetlock deep In mud. Unless moro
rain falls today, or tonight, the track undoubtedly will drain off,
making it slow if not muddy. It has excellent drying qualities,
Original Field May Be Reduced
However, more rain is predicted today with the result that
the original starting field of eighteen may be reduced to fourteen
because of track conditions.
Burning Dream, carrying the hopes of a fifth derby victory
for the 85-year-old Col. E. R. Bradley of Lexington, Ky will
not start if track conditions are unfavorable, Jimmy Smith, his
trainee said. Two of the three Canadian nominees Fair Jester
and Kcuilworth Lad, definitely will not go if tho track is off.
Another doubtful starter is Jacobc, entry of Andrew Wright.
Jersey City, N. J. Jacobe, received a leg cut in his last workout
before leaving New York. His handlers were frantically apply
ing flaxseed heat pads today in the hope of reducing Inflamatlon.
14 Certain To Go To Post
This fourth war-time derby, delayed more than a month
because of the ban on racing, will find an apparently certain
field of 14 more or less sprightly three year olds struggling to
the last mile and a quarter of Churchill Downs soil, come a fast
track or mud, to present a reasonable facsimile of Whlrlnway'l
2:01 25 record 'for the event. Each will curry 128 pounds, will!
the exception of the only filly in tho race, Mlsweot, which will
have an allowance of five pounds.
Three Horis Installed As Choices
,, The public has installed three horses as choices Hoop Jr.,
entry of F. W. Hooper, Jacksonville, Fla.; Col. C. V. Whitney's
Jeep and Pot O'Luck, entry of Warren Wright's Calumet farm.
Hoop Jr., winner of one division of the Woods Memorial at
Jamaica last Saturday, turned in the most astonishing workout
of all derby candidates, stepping a mile and an eighth in 1:31 33.
Pot O'Luck gets consideration because of Trainer Ben Jones,
who has saddled three derby winners Lawrln, Whirlawoy and
Pensive, winner of the 1944 event.

Lippy Leo Cuts
Brooklyn Squad
To 27 Players
BROOKLYN, June 8 UP)
Manager Leo Durocher of the
Dodgers cut his squad to 27 men
today with the release of Pitch
ers Les Webber and Otto Nitch-
olas. Webber, formerly with
the Seattle Rainiers of the Pa
cific Coast league who has
served mostly in reljef roles
since 1942, went to the Montxeal
farm in the International lea-
gue. He has won one and lost
one this year: Nitcholas was re
turned to St. Paul of the Amer
ican association on a 24-hour
recall basis.
Johnny Lindell, a key Yankee,
reporting for duty in the armed
service and Dave Ferriss ready
for action in Sunday's double
header, the Sox have a chance to
make another tremendous stride
the four game Tiger Rebel
by capturing
series.
The veteran Red Sox handy
man, Mike Ryba, got a win yes
terday in a 10-inning 5-4 Red
Sox verdict over the Philadel
phia Athletics. Catcher Bob Gar
bark's bases-loaded single won
the game after Bob Johnson had
put Boston back in the running
on a two-run homer.
Reds Trip Pirates
Joe Bowman boosted-the Reds
into the National league's first
four on a 7-3 edge over Pitts
burgh's Rip Sewell for his sec
ond straight decision since don
ning a Cincinnati uniform.
The Braves grabbed their
quota of the Boston cheers by
sinking the Phillies twice, 3-1
and 7-3, deepening Freddy Fitz
simmons woes to 11. straight
losses. Jim Tobin and Tom
Earley, the latter making his
first starting appearance since
his service discharge, were the
victors over Bill Lee and Dick
Barrett as Tommy Holmes con-
! tinued his hit parade with five
that boosted his league leading
average to .390.
Giants Whin Bums
Brooklyn lived 'up to all the
bad things the writers said about
them in spring training days by
kicking the ball for eight errors
in tossine one away to New
York, 10-5. Van Mu'ngo was
credited with his sixth straight,
but was not around at the finish
desoite his triple and single.
Both St. Louis teams were vic
torious, as the Cardinals out
stepped the Chicago Cubs, 6-4, to
take over sole possession of sec
ond place, three and one half
games behind the Giants and the
