(By AaeoeUUd Preaa) New York, July 11 Jack Sharkey cut loose today with some of the punching tricks that he hopes will check the comeback of Jack Demp sey on July 21. As a result two of his sparring mates, Johnny Urban-Pittsburgh light heavyweight and Leo Gates, the Mohawk Indian of North Adams.

were In dis tress at the end of two-ic-jnd work outs. Sharkey put Urban on the floor with a right to the stomach and left to the Jaw. Groggy, the Pitts- burgher waa obv)ously relieved when Johnny Buckley, Sharkey's manager, ordered the bell rung for the nd of the session after yelling at the Lithunian "not to lose his head" and hit Urban again. Gates was also shaken up with a few well-timed rights- the type of blows that gave Sharkey a knock out victory over Jimmy Moloney- Otherwise, for the edification of crowd of 1,500 fans. Sharkey seemed more to "take it" than to deliver punishment.

He worked nine rounds altogether-starting off with two at the light bag and going seven rounds with four, sparring mates. He was content chiefly to bob and weave- his ham at his side- absorbing blows, except for the brief offensive flashes against Gates and Urban. Marco Polo, a rugged specimen who has been "fed" to Sharkey regularly, shook up Sharkey with a few stiff rights but the Lithuanian took them without retaliating.

T. Byrd; (Continued en Next Pags-) Former Wilkesbarre Hurler' Drive Kirsch AU Ex-Vol Southpaw Likely to Return. in an effort to repair his battered pitching sti-ff. Jimmy Hamilton announced late last night that he plans to recall VhUkerGllbert. who has twice before beeir a Vol- Gilbert a sobthpaw, won his only start with the local club this spring befor he was sent to Knoxvlile on option- He haa turned In a good record with the Sally League team- He was here in 1925 and also early last sea-ion- With the acquisition of Gilbert.

Glaser will be placed on the voluntary retired list- By RAYMOND JOHNSON James A. Hamilton may or may not be the champion hard luck pilot of minor league baseball, bu one will never be able to convince the Vol skipper that he docs no own the title. Just about the time he thinks that he has the old machine hitting on all cylinders, something works loose and he has another bsc Job on his hands. Mandy Brooks, who was bought a week ago today from Louisville, joined the club yesterday down in Memphis and It filled the Vol roster. But Mandy Brooks had hardly dolled himself up In a Nashville uniform before another one of the Hamilton hirelings was ready to vacate his diamond toes.

He was Norman (Whltey) Olaser, who has turned In four victories In a row Glaser suffered a brokon thumb In the first lnnln? of Monday's game. Danny Taylor shot a line drive through the box and Whltey attempted to flag It with his glove hand. But the ball caught him on his thumb and he was forced to leave the game. Glaser Sent Home, James Hamilton declared last night in a telephone conversation that he was sending Glaser back to Nashville. The Vol skipper that he did not expect the former Wilkes-Barre hurler to be able to work again for two or maybe- three weeks.

With the injury to Glaser, Ham llton has only four moundsmen, two right handers and two southpaw George Klrsch was left at home when the Vols departed Sunday for a four-day engagement at Mamphls. The native hurler Is also on the hospital list, for he Is ablo to get around only by the aid of a pair of crutches. Klrsch sprained his ankle Sunday when Eddie Phillips stepped on his foot attemptlrc to field a bunt. It was not thought at the time that It was more than a minor sprain, but Sunday night It began to swell. Klrsch Is expected to be ready for duty when the Vols return here Friday.

Box Help Is Nedtd. The Vol boss is badly in need of box help at present. Hiq, four moundsmen. Fred Johnson, Ernie Alten, Oscar Fuhr and Benny Frey, will be forced to work every fourth day until aid Is received. "They'll have to stay in there for the full game if they get the socks knocked off them," Hamilton declared last night.

"We are certainly lucky that we haven't any double headers down here. We are trying to get another pitcher but so is everybody else. We need two rnore. We may land one to pull us over thii hard luck stretch." Glaser and Klrsch are not the first Vols to be placed on the hospital list Jlils summer. Poco Taltt has twicjCbeen out because of Injuries.
