Battered
By Monte
Southpaw Phil Sampson, a comer
In the welterweight division U there
ever wan one. added another scalp
to hl collection last night In the
armory by slugelng out a technical
kayo over durable Duane Hoait in
the fourth round of their scheduled
10-stanza engagement.
Sampson took every round and vir
tually every point although Hoag
didn't give up easily. The tough
Portland youngster had occasion
twice to pick himself off the canvas.
In the first round the Busisaw
started fast In his accustomed
leather-flurry style, but Sampson
nailed him with a right that
flipped Hoag against the ropes,
then draped him over the second
strand with another right. Hoag
came back mad, waving Sampson 1b
and Phil connected with a left nooa
that sat Hoag down for no count
Duane was hurt and rather sur
prised but still grinning when the
rnnnft was over.
Hmi started the second heat fast
but promptly was slowed down by
catching a slam into nis neaa aim
another to the pit 01 nis siomacn.
Ho was swinging wild and not get
ting anywhere as the stanza ended.
The third was a good clean round,
more boxing than slugging, and
' Sampson once moved away when
he had Hoag wide open on me rope.
The big crowd approved that move.
Early in the fourth heat Sampson
caught Hoag's jaw flush with a right
hand that spun Duane Into the
ropes and a follow-up punch sent
him down for an 8 count. Duane
got up fighting but was in a bad
way and hanging on when Referee
Wally Moss stopped the fight.
The win was Sampsons third
straight in the local ring. He
weighed 136. Hoag 13S.
Mont Montgomery got a TKO
over Chris Gregory of 6eattle in
the second round of their scheduled
lightweight 10 rounder when Greg
ory's handlers tossed in the towel
just at the close of the heat .
A savage overhand right to the
Jaw dasrd Gregory In the first
round and he was Just a target
from then on in although that
punch didn't knock him down. A
right to the head put Gregory on
the deck for 8 in the second and
when he got up another sat him
down for 7. He got up again and
Monle was slamming him unmer
cifully when Gregory's handlers
decided to call it quits.
Billy Sunday took a highly dis
puted split decision over Dick Wolfe
In the middleweight special event
after losing one round, the fourth,
for hitting low. Sunday was the
aggressor every round byt several
times his blows were dangerously
low. Wolfe was groggy and hanging
on from a looping right hand smash
In the final canto.
The preliminaries saw the popular
Georgie Price of Merrill take a light
weight decision from Benny Mit
chell, while Herb Snell decisioned
Don Piccard in the lightweight
opener.

Yankee Farm
Chain Sends
Seven Ahead
NEW YORK. Aug. 6 iNEA
Branch Rickey's transplanting the
balance of National league power
from St, Louis to Brooklyn In three
years Is remindful of the fact that
the farm system hasn't done badly
by the Yankees.
Not even the Dodgers or the St.
Louis Cards can show seven boys
who came up to stay In IS47.
Some people were wondering who
was going to pitch for the New
Yorks until Frank Shea started his
winning streak. Later still Vic
Raschl came along.
When Shea and Spud Chandler
turned up with sore arms, Larry
McPhait bought Bubo Newsum
from the Senators and recalled
Vic Raschl from Portland. The
pair kepi a win siring suing until
It hit the major league sensa
tional high of 19. Don Johnson Is
another splendid young right
hander In this year's crop. Big
Karl Drews la being helpful.
The Bombers produced two young
catchers in one campaign Yogi
Berra and Ralph Houk, the former
also something better than ade
quate In the outfield. Houk Is the
slickest of three Yankee backstops.
Young Bobby Lrown couldn't get
back when an injury gave Billy
Johnson a steady crack at his old
third base stand, but the collegian
represents versatile reserve strength
In the dugout.
That makes the seven who came
up to stay this year.
With all the Yankee richness
through the years, the team now
burning up the American league
Is as home grown as anything the
Cards ever fielded. Only 1)1
Maggio, llenrich, Reynolds and
Newsom of the parly were nut
found and developed In the chain.
Even George McQulnn. now with
the Yanks after a long tour of duty ,
elsewhere around the circuit, got his
start in the system but was stymied
for many years by the presence of
l.ou uenrig.' ine ranis aian t neea
another first sacker. i
Allle Reynolds, who came In an
exchange last fall for Joe Gordon,
was signed by a Yankee scout when
he was still a high school boy In
Portland. Ore., -but didn't go up
