TUESDAY, JUNE tftSS THE FREEPORT JOURNAL-STANDARD PHONE 3100 PAGE NINE LdtjJs flavored To Whip Camera In Heavyweight Battle DETROIT NEGRO SLU60ER PICKED TO WIN OVER ITALIAN GIANT EXPECT TO VIEW NON-TITLE FftAY Heavy Detair of Offiem To Stadiums Cofcteat Will Not Be Broadcast ALAN GOULD (Associated Press Sports Writer) New York, June No matter what happens tonight when joe Louis, "brown bomber" from Detroit, trains his short-range punching fire on Prlmo Carnera at the Yankee stadium, their box office appeal assures one of the biggest financial successes elnce pugilism took the country from old man denrcssion. Favorable weather reports, coupled with extraordinary Interest aroused throughout the country by the most important mixed match In more than a decade of heavyweight activity, boomed the ticket sales. There was little chance of a sellout for a park that can accommodate close to 80,000, but it appeared certain more than 50,000 cash customers would contribute nearly $400,000 to see just how long it will take the youthful negro, Louis, to brine down the 265-pound Italian giant. Such a turnout 'would "dwarf; the relatively small -crowd, less than 30,000 paid, which saw James J. Braddock take the heavyweight title from Max Baer two weeks ago.

It would set-a new "high" for a non- championship match since Jack Dempsey flattened Jack Sharkey In the same arena in 1927. Louis Favored The odrls appeared likely to be at least 2 to 1 in favor of Louis when the clans gather at the ringside. There was little Carnera money In sight. Broadway shared the general belief of fistic experts and followers- at-large that the huge Italian Is made to order for the deadly- punching negro. Reports that Carnera would scale close to 265, considerably over his best fightins? weight, did not lend any encouragement to followers.

Despite his advantages in size, reach and experience, Prirno's chances of avoiding Loui's knockout punch were not considered bright. The belief in well-informed fistic circles was that Carnera, still shell- shocked terrific" fteatinig-he took from Max Baer last summer, would be lucky to last a half dozen rounds. Carnera Has Courage His one big chance seemed to be that he micht share the current luck of the long-shots. He did It once before when he knocked out Jack Sharkey and won the heavyweight title. He proved his courage when under fire against Baer.

He lacks only two things in a physical makeup that otherwise make him the most formidable fighting specimen of his time. Those two things happen to be a punch and a double chin. Racial rivalry and the fact that the fight occurs at a time when the governments of Italy and, Abyssinia are in a dispute has prompted promoters and police to co-operate Jn taking unusual precautions against the possibility of an outbreak among spectators. Authorities minimized the prospects of any disturbance, but more the 1,000 uniformed men were due for assignment ac the stadium, The preliminaries- start at 7 p. and the main bcoit is slated for not later than 9 m.

There will be no broadcast.

GREAT TAMUL1S CONTINUES JINX OVER RIVALS IN AMERICAN LOOP RACE CUBS OEFEAfliANTS IN TENTHJRAMEl SOX COP Paul Dean Blasted From Mound But Trim sTIrers Take Senator Nine BY ANDY CLARKE (Associated Press Sports Writer) New York, Juno Tamulis, unobtrusive fellow who has rocketed to the fore of the Yankees' high- powered pltehln? staff, has tamed the Indians again. He has a peculiar ability to throw balls where there are no Cleveland tomahawks, and yesterday he hung his third Cleveland scalp to his belt and ran his season record to seven with only one defeat. The Indians got but one run, while the Yankees, stretching their lead In the American league to four games, got four. Tamulis limited the Indians to eight hits, three of which bounced from the bat of Joe Vosmlk. Earl Whltehill, former Detroit pitcher now with Washington, lost 9 to 8 to his old teammates after pitching 14 innings at Detroit.

With two men aboard, Auker, who had been sent In as a relief pitcher for Bridges, lifted a high fly that permitted White to score from third. Beat Giants A tenth Inning double off the bat of Burnett enabled the St. Louis Browns to defeat Philadelphia, 2-1. Zeke Bonura'K homer win two on was instrumental in the defeat of Boston by the Chicago White Sox, 6-4, in other American league games. In the National league, the Chicago Cubs were forced to go ten innings to subdue the league-leading New York Giants 10-9.

It was a batsman's holiday, with a total of 30 hits off the bludgeons. Paul Dean did not last long enough to retire a batter In the first inning of the Card-Brooklyn game but St. Louis came from behind to win another free-slugging contest 12-7. Jimmy Collins of the Cards continued his home run spree, collecting his sixth home in five days and his 18th for the season. Cincinnati defeated the Phillies 6-4 for its third straight triumph.

I'Veeli Meadows during MIC National Open of The bull out perfectly, Gene sunk his putt for a 06, to win the Gene Saraaen's final tour of Fresh Meadows in 68 during the 1932 National Open was the greatest round of tournament golf I ever have witnessed.

The outstanding shot of that memorable excursion was his 65th out of a trap to the right of the green. If It hadn't been for the milling crowd, Sarazen might have shot a lower score, but the unruly gallery all but ciosed the Italian's entrance to the final hole, and nearly mobbed him as he played his iron approach. Outwardly not bit flustered, Sarazen laid his shot out of ttie trap five feet from the cup, and putted in for the 66, the lowest round of the tournament. Sarazen asserts the improvement in his game which won for him in the 1932 British and U. S.

Opens, was due to his ability to play out of traps. He says he no longer fears trap shots, because he knows he can get put in one. He also attributes much cf his success in playing out of the sand to an especially designed club. "The trap shot Is simple," explains the gentleman farmer of Connecticut. "Don't try to pick the ball out.

Just hit down hard about an inch behind the sphere, and out it will go, A lull swing should be taken.

A stag party will be held following the golf match with the Monroe players as guests of honor. The annual matches between these two clubs are usually'-the outstanding feature on the Freeport club program and it is expected the contests tomorrow will prove no exception. IMMANUAL LUTHERAN TEAM IS BEATEN CLUB The St. John's team defeated the Immanuel Lutheran church Junior softball team yesterday by a score of 7 to 2. Tht new rule which states that no pitcher may pitch more than three innings nor less than two proved to be quite satisfactory as the loss of the game by Immanuel was due to errors by other members of the team, This eliminates the possibility of one pitcher pitching the whole game and winning by an overwhelming score and also makes the games more even.

The St. John's pitchers struck out 3 and walked 5 and the Immanuel pitchers struck out 2 and walked a pair. IN run JIMMY COLLINS. CARDINAL ACE.

St. Louis Cardinals (Copyright, 1035. NEA Service. Inn.) St, LoulA, June there have been great right-handed first basemen, a left-hander hns a big physical advantage In the field, and consequently the bettor chance of achieving success nt the initial sack In tho major leagues. left-hander's percentage is chiefly felt in playing bunts and slow grounders with men on bases, where he can make a running pickup and throw to third or second without being forced to turn and set himself for the toss.

In handling a bunt with men on bases, a first or third baseman or a pitcher, with his back to the bnsos, depends; solely on the judgment of the catcher, who yells whore to make the play. The backstop decides whether It is too late to nip a runner at say third base. In Instances of this sort, intuition and judgment of location, not eyesight, guides the whip of the first bnsenjan. A play of this type requires fast thinking; also endless sessions of practice to perfect an accurate toss to an awaiting teammate's glove. I would say that Intuition and practice are the keys to success at first base, Naturn.lly, star big league first baseman must be a formidable hitter and at, least fairly fast that goes for all positions except pitching.

Watch Speedsters One of the most difficult problems of a first ba.ieman is holding a speedy runner on base. He must be close to the sack and on the alert for a toss from the pitcher. If, with less than two out and first haw occupied, the ba.tter drives the ball In the direction of the first baseman, another occasion for accurate judgment to throwing distance presents Itself, The first baseman must be nble to skim the head of the flying runner Imhls line of vision by inches without loss of precious seconds, and then hustle back to first for a lightning-like return throw from the shortstop or second baseman trying to complete a double killing. In playing for a double piny with a slow runner on first base, the first baseman generally plays 25 or 30 feet behind the base. He doesn't have to be so concerned about the runner obtaining too much of a lead.

A first baseman must use his head in tho handling of bad throws, He must be able to judge his own reaching distance. Many youngsters make the mistake of not moving off bag to shag wild heaves. When the ball caroms off their glove tips the aftermath frequently is disastrous. Speaking; of stretching, often times a little longer one means the difference between the ball getting to the first baseman's hands before the batsman's spikes dent the bng, Whllft the left-handed first baseman has an edge in the field, this does not, mean that he must hit left- handed. Hal Chaee, considered by many to have been the daddy of them all, threw left-handed, and was a splendid right-handed batter.

Although I am a switch hitter- left-handed against right-handed pitchers and vice versa against sometimes cross them up in a tight spot and bat left- handed against, southpaws. It unnerves them because they don't ex pect it. Collects Bats I have two hobbies. One is collecting broken I have more than 500 of autographed. Each ha.

1 been treated so that the autograph will preserved. I arn fencing the backyard of my Rochester home with them, and have the fence half completed, All the National league their broken bats for mo. My hobby is a collection of alow motion pictures of plays a first baseman figures in. I have all the plays pictured. I've shown them at every school and service club gathering in the vicinity of Rochester during off seasons Naturally, the New York Giants again are the club that the have to boat.

And we're not apprehensive, although they have a comfortable lead now, We were 10 Kames behind the GianM last August, but carnft through. The Inals always put on the pressure In I the stretch run. I The Cardinals aren't worried about the American league, I hope at Inast to share the National league first basing with Bill Terry, tlie manager of the New York club, in the all-star game In Cleveland on July 8. Playing in the all-star game is an which any player Justly ran proud, and I would tx- I thankful for the privilege of per! forming.
