MlDDLETOWN TIMES MIDDLETOWN, JANUARY 23. 1935. NINE Today's Sports a a By STUART CAMERON Almost any night now some I -wrestler is t'oing to become cross i Referee 1 Jack Dempsey. take a pot bhot at the former champ, and ii'vV be '-nocked out. Just about years ago when Dempsev was going in for wresting lefereeing in large and outstanding vav some bright, young promoter decided it wpuld be sort of cute have one of his entourage take a poke at the former champ and then bee what would happen.

It never did happen just that way because wrestkrs. although brave young athletes 'or so have always thought), do noi care to have lor- mei heavyweight boxing champions striking them in earnest and for keeps. Being wrestlers they knev that it ii possible to arrange things in advance and finally one night, in the -interest of good, clean fun, the poke at the champ'i nose was duly staged Demysey. as per schedule, promptly let one "go and the grunter plotted down to the deck and stayed there. All very funny, I am sure, and I'm also sure that I'd have enjoyed the sight as much or more than any- bcdy elss as I am quite a hand at finding jcy in the business of two males clumping one another onto haid surfaces, provided I am occupying a spectator charac- is a first cousin to the boxing managerial school of thought which has the premise of "They can't hurt us." However, it seems to me that the act has been done so long now with no significant change that it should be about tune either for complete renovation or complete abandonment preferably the latter.

Sometime, just by way of infinite variety, it impht bs sort of jolly for the vrestler to strike Dempsey and then. (1) have Dempsey politely lead the offender to his corner, or, (2) have Demptey leap over the and, feigning stark terror, lun away. As the show stands now, however, it's pretiy mothcaten and even if it doss happen again perhaps st won't be nev z.

Maybrook is now tied with Otisville with seven wins and two losses each. The Maybrook girls won easily, 41-7. The Brown brothers featured Maybrook's attack with Bob, a guard, netting ten points for top score, and brother Harry meshing two circus shots. In the first period, the latter sank a field goal as he sat on the Washingtonville foul line ancj ha flipped one soon afterward from behind his own free stripe. George Lyons and Joe Droney helped the Browns run UD a thirteen point edge at the quarter and the lead proved too much for the improved Washingtonville five which has thrown a.

scare into every league leader during the past few weeks. The game was rough and referee Jack Weller handed Lyons and Earrj Brown premature shower tickets in the fourth period on personal fouls. Norman Tener, diminutive Wash- uigtonville scoring ace. was tops for the loop's cellar tenants with eleven points. Close guarding bv Ruby Van- Steenburgh was outstanding in the girls' tilt in which Washingtonville's lassies failed to register a 4eld goal during the first half Miss VanSteenburgh held Freddie Workman.

Miss Droney played the entire game, although credited with five personal and three technical fouls when Washingtonville's substitutes failed to appear.

Has Slight Respect for Braddock, However; Top Spot for Baer Bid NEV' YORK-- Art Laskv went into training todav for his February first fight witn James J. Braddock, although he has slight respect for h's opponent. Braddock is one of the hardest hitters the heavyweight envision hab known, and it is a certainty that somewhere along the fifteen round route they will travel that the veteran Irishman will connect, at least once Laskys ability to absorb punishment that comes way and re- lam fas boxing ability will determine the outcome. Upon his- arrival late la.st night Luskcy said he weighed exartlj 200 pounds and was in such good shape that he expects to enter the ring at that figure, which will make it virtually an even match in weights.
