Oliver School Teacher, Leaves Fight World Wouldn't Trade Places With Champs Zivic Goes Again! Turtle Creek, Wildwood In Series Tilt Stage Tournament Game At North Ansott in Tough Spot Soose Gets Ready Se-creet-Yarosz Top Card of Ambitious Kids At Hickey Tomorrow By REGIS M. WELSH Merrily the fistic whirl spins on, regardless of the fact that its motivating power of the last few weeks has, temporarily, removed himself from the scene of action.

And, as Fritzie Zivic labors in the Hills of Jersey, whipping himself into shape for his 15-round title defense against Freddie "Red" Cochrane a week from Monday in Newark, i i nrV i if CP -Tin mi Mini 'firm i vill im- IS i (i i tie ne 1 is 1 1 i I and Billy Soos hibernates in his Pocono mountain camp preparing for his first showing in New York as a champion against Georgie Abrams a week from Wednesday, local kids move to the center of the stage to prove that the game is Just something short of perpetual motion. Add to this, Sammy Angott's risk ing of his National Boxing Association rating as lightweight champion of the world when he meets the hottest" thing in the ring today-Sugar" Robinson in Philly tomor row night, and the menu is still well-filled enough to offer local fans something to see and talk about. Merry-Go-Round Goes On Ambitious kids, held back in the effort to attract attention, burst into their full glory tomorrow night in Hickey Park when eight of the youngsters who may be the top- notchers of the near future, battle in four eight-round bouts for sur vival in the mad rush to go places. Some would have had you believe that when Billy Conn left for the movies, the bottom would drop out of the local picture, yet. scheduled events prove that Pittsburgh is still the hub of the fighting universe and will continue to be so long as youngsters are given a chance.

Aneott is in a "tough" spot. Tne Washington. Pa. Italian is matched with Lew Jenkins for October to settle the split opinion on the ruler of the lightweights. But should Robinson belt him out.

or beat him there is no telling what will happen that booking. And Robinson may do either. The Negro is a "whiz. Just like Angott and a puncher. The fight is only ten rounds, but, the Robinson who cut Pete Lello down on the Zivic-Al Davis card, showed enough that night to make it a worrisome eve ning for Sammy.

Zivic Likes Being Champ Zivic, who wastes more energy meeting people and telling them funny stories, than he usually does against touted tough opposition looks like a cinch to retain his title after he is through with Cochrane, another of those "Jersey champions." Much ado is being made that 'Red" is another Mickey Walker, even though the only re semblance is that they both come from the same state and the same neiehborhood. Zivic, with his new auto, and his acouirnig of a taste for fancy things, hasn't yet let these weak nesses undermine his fighting spirit It is almost a sure thing that, again "on the spot." he will come through as he did with Davis not so long ago. Ambitious Kids Get Chance Locally. Hickey Park offers treat. Sammy Secreet, who after his win over and loss to Milt Aron who is being talked of as a probable Zivic opponent here this fall, makes a bid to win that place when he takes on Tommy Yaroz in the top of four eighty.

Of equal attraction is anoi-ner eight which sends Sammy Adragna.

ROBINSON United Press Writer TORONTO, Ont, July 19 The National Hockey League will carry on next season with depleted sauads. league officials admitted here, following the Canadian Government's call for more soldiers and the effects of the American draft on hockey pros below the border. Montreal Canadiens stand to be heavy losers in player material, but the Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Rangers, Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Black Hawks each expect to journey to fall training camps minus a number of their younger stars, while farm clubs will be affected seriously, it was said. Clubs operating in the many minor leagues may be forced to retire for the duration of the war. A conservative estimate has at least 40 players in the National Hockey League affected by the American and Canadian color calls.

Many more probably will be called from other leagues. Tommy Gorman, of the Canadiens. the Maple Leaf's Conny Smythe. Red Dutton, Lester Pat rick and the rest of the league's moguls express complete support of the stepped-up recruiting pm gram and say they'll cut their suits to fit the government pat tern. League officials even have gone on record and expressed their wil lingness to close shop for the sea son and until the end of the war if their action will be helping the war effort.

For the first time since the World War the usual summertime trading and club strengthening hit a new low. Deals hanging fire were allowed to peter out. Up-and-com ing juveniles were passed up and the training roster was left un filled. The Canadian government's action in imposing a 20 per cent amusement tax on all professional sports hit the profession hard al though just how hard will became apparent when the turnstiles be gin ticking late next fall. Many young players have decided to hanz their skates and sticks on the wall in turn for a bayonet and rifle.

Amateur pucksters just one step out of the big time and who probably would have been ready for top competition this year are serving with the armed forces. Connv Smythe takes the whole thing in his stride and from Peta- wawa training camp in Ontario where he is a. major with an artil lery unit he sends word that in his oDinion the draft won't send hockey down the misery trail. "Maybe our hockey will not be so good, so much more dependent on the individual. All the clubs have been carrying more player strength than was essential.

If it is wartime hockey, we'll cut down our squads, he said. Montreal's Tommy Gorman ad mits the Canadiens will lose sev eral players, possibly Elmer Lach Jack Adams, Tony Demers. Conny Tudin, Bouchard Bibeault and Stu Smith. Ken Reardon, mighty defense bulwark, and Johnny Quilty both under the draft age are not af fected. Toronto probably will see Wally Stanowski, Pete Langelle and Bob Heron change from a Maple Leaf jersey to battle-dress.

The Leafs even may lose Ernie Dickens. Bob Goldham. Frank Eddols, Buddy Eelyer and Nick Knott, although they are under draft age. Boston may lose Red Hamill Gordon Bruce. High Little, Terry Reardon.

Pat McReavy, Jack Shew- chuk. Milt Schmidt and Bauer and Dumart the famous Kraut Line in the Bruin attack are not liable for training with Canada's forces, hav ing taken out U. S. citizenship papers, but they each have cards holding an American draft number, Three players with the Chicago Black Hawks, Bob Carse, Dave McKay and Johnny Chad, can be called up, while, the Detroit Red Wings can lose Les Douglas, Gus Geise brecht. Jack Stewart, Kenny Kilrea Syd Abel and perhaps Jud McAtee Pete Slobodzian, Wycherley.

Billy Benson and Pat Eagan may quit the Amerks for army pay. with juvenile goalie. Charlie Rayner. Looking over the Ranger roster, only Al Pike enters the draft call bracket. Four Bouts Made For Police Show Four amateur bouts have been signed for the Widow's Police Pen sion Fund boxing show at Forbes Field.

Married, and the father of a 14-year-old boy, William, Davies resides in Homewood, and is so proud of his family life that he brags about the things he and the "Missus" and "Junior" do. watch Junior every minute to see if that boxing streak is developing in him. "So far.

I haven't been able to detect his liking for it. The few times we put on the gloves. Junior shows he knows how to take care of himself, but "the killer" hasn't shown yet. I believe he would rather play baseball, and as he is now bigger than I am, and still growing, maybe he will turn out to be a big leaguer." Helps To Fit Others So, when you are watching Ex-Charleroi Mite Says He's MucK Happier Today There is an old saying and it has almost proved to be a true one that "you can't take that beating around the ears and be yourself." Yet. every so often, someona pops up maybe a Gene Tunney, a Joe Benjamin, a Johnny Kil-bane, a Tommy Loughran or a Benny Leonard to refute the accepted theory that, sooner or later, all those punches a fighter stops during his ring career begin to "add up on them." So, it is sort of surprising, even amazing, to find that, right here, is a fighter who engaged in 287 fights during his nine-year career as an outstanding flyweight against champions from all over the world who today boasts a Master's degree in science from the University of Pittsburgh, and who.

currently, is engaged as a teacher in one of the borough's Junior high schools. Some of you may remember "Wee Willie" Davies, mite of a boy. who came from Charleroi in 1924 to throw his 110 pounds into the fighting scene of local clubs and who, even today is proud of the fact that he is "still the flyweight champion of the British Empire." Come Out Of Charleroi Davies was another of those lads from the upriver coal-mining town along with Cuddy Demarco, Young Sailor, Tug Phillips. Young Pinchot. Bricky Ryan.

Joe Larue, Young Rudy and Young Carmen who thrilled ring fans all over the country with his wizardy. courage and smart boxing style. Today, Davies, instructor in science in Mt. Oliver Junior High School, gives vent to his athletic yearnings by being summer physical instructor at Shakespeare Playgrounds, teaching basketball, track and baseball and only pccassionally putting on the gloves to show some obstreperous youngster that he can still "handle his dukes." He is also a local fight judge. The Charleroi mite, who says that no one yet has taken away from him the British Empire title, which he won from Eugene Huat in a Canadian elimination tournament, today is no taller, and only a whisper heavier than when he fought fellows like Frankie Genaro, Black Bill, Johnny McCoy.

Frankie Mason, Izzy Schwartz, Jackie Rodg-ers, Mose Butch, Jackie Wilson, Jimmy Thomas and other little fellows, who thrived in the days before heavyweights became the attraction. Always thrifty, to live up to his Scotch ancestry. Davies knew how-to handle money he made during the heyday of Meyers' Bowl, in Braddock, and from lucrative engagements in bouts and tourneys from coast-to-coast, Canada, and even "jerk water" towns. When he hung up the gloves in 1933, Willie had time, and means, to satisfy his yearning for an education. Gets Thrill Out Of Career He entered Pitt in 1935 and was graduated, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1939.

He returned to school the following year and earned his Master degree by being one of the post-graduate outstanding students at the University. Willie seldom talks about his fighting days, but, when he does, his "shoe-button" eyes sparkle, the old verve comes back into his lithe body and he just gabs and gabs about the times referred to now as the "good old days of the Tumultuous Twenties. "Six times I fought that Izzy Schwartz and five times I beat him. The last time, in Motor Square Garden, I had him on the floor in the last round, but at the count of eight the final bell saved him. But, I got even for the times he had beaten me in California and New York.

"Poor Black Bill." Willie said as he referred to the Cuban who came after the "Mighty Jimmy Wilde, and who antedated Kid Chocolate the Cuban phantom. "We fought six times. He could never beat me until the semi-final of the Madison Square Garden elimination to determine the world's flyweight title. Shortly after that, Black Bill went blind and later was killed.

Yarosz seeks to fill the place left vacant by the semi-retirement of his big brother, Teddy. Tommy has been coming along in swell fashion and if he is able to take Secreet's punching and keep coming, this should be a whale of a thing. Secreet After Zivie Secreet.

Since that he has beaten Ernie Derho, Glover and several others until he ran into the Aron powerhouse in Chicago in June. The appearance of Blackwell and Franklin balances a card of youngsters who have not yet learned the trick of trying to fool the customers and torrid action is almost guaranteed by every bout on the card.
