OCTOBER 11. 1928 Victory Over Scozza in Wigwam Ring Tomorrow Means Much to Arthur Flynn 20 MANY EXCELLENT HIGH SCHOOL GAMES LISTED FOR TOMORROW Record Crowds Expected to See Football Contests In Greater Boston 1 i CRUCIAL TO HIS 1ANAGERJ00 Lively Supporting Card at Argonne Show By DAVID F. EGAN Iqvl Scozza, Buffalo middleweight, and Arthur Flynn of Lawrence, will feature the holiday afternoon boxing show at Braves Field at 2 oclock tomorrow. Scozza Is called the Student Prince by an enthusiasts press agent, probably because of the fact that he attended a school once upon a time.

Flynn, too, was a schoolboy a few years ago, and in fact he starred in football at Lawrence High, so that the affair of tomorrow has an inter-scholastio trend to it. There will be loud moans from Dan Carroll, who can moan very loudly when the occasion merits it. In tha event that Flynn is defeated. He had hardly finished paying the last Installment on Flynns contract 250G when Scozza defeated him la Providence. And if Scozza beats him again tomorrow, dapper Daniel Will have many a headache before he gets his original investment safely back in his pocket, Eddie matchmaker of the Argonne A.

A. and promoter of the show, spent yesterday in New York, seeking an oppponent for the winner of the coming bout. Looks as If Mickey Walker Is okeh for the winner, he wired this morning. Have been in conference with Jack Kearns, also In conference with Rickard. Opening show of Boston Garden settled for Nov 17.

Jack Britton, former welterweight ruler, and Jimmy McConnlgal Of Weymouth, who has aspirations, will meet in the 10-round semifinal bout. A long list of preliminary, bouts has been announced, the best of which should be between Tommy Smoot of South Boston and Tom Harper of Medford, two of the classiest lightweight prospects In New England.

MEDFORD WILL BE STRONG FOR SOMERVILLE GAME Medford and Somerville at George Dllboy, Field, West Somerville, at 2-30 tomorrow afternoon is another battle in which there is plenty of interest. Inasmuch as both teams are regarded as formidable. Medford has played three games and In the New Bedford Voca.

tlonal and Brockton games It uncovered Its best wares, but it was hardly up to Coach Herbert Collins expectations when it tackled the Fitchburg High School eleven, Saturday, and just nosed it out, 7 to 0. Medford High will start its regular lineup tomorrow, which It did not do against Fitchburg, owing to the fact that two regulars were censored for being absent from practice without permission. Somerville, on toe other hand, will not have its full strength owing to Injuries to George Dresser, the regu lar center, and Stevenson, the regular right guard. Cochrane, who played center in both the Salem and Waltham High games, has been shifted to left guard, and Marsh will be used as pivot man by Coach Charley Dlckerman. Either John Sullivan or Donald Wells will start for the Red and Blue at quarter back.

The probable lineup of the teams: Somerville Murley, le; Toothacker, It; Cochrane, lg; Marsh, Paula, rg; Capt Casey, rt; Rondlna, re; Wells or Sullivan, qb; Luppl, lhb; Murphy, rhb; Peterson, fb. Medford Andrews, re; Capt Griffin, rt; Periello, rg; Branch, Spaulding, Ig; DeBendlctus, It; Wright, le; Hertz-man, qb; Spellman, rhb; Uanna, lhb; Wilder, fb. MALDEN-MELROSE TILT LIKELY TO BE CLOSE Malden High will be the guest of Melrose High at the Melrose High School Athletic Field tomorrow afternoon at 2:30. This game Is likely to be much closer than the fans anticipate, because the Melrose outfit, coached by Harold Poole, Is powerful, although It has played but two games. Melrose has beaten Quincy and Wakefield and the players are confident that they will be able to stave off reverse at the hands of Malden.

The Malden eleven was disappointed at its inability to do better against Haverhill High Saturday, but toe players are of the opinion that they will more than make up for the Haverhill reverse when they tackle Melrose. Arlington High and Winchester will furnish the only Mystic Valley League game for tomorrow, and this battle la always sura to be closely contested. Arlington has improved rapidly, and feels that it can take the measure of Winchester, although the latter feels that It will be fit for the Arlington in vasion at Manchester Field, Win Chester. Haverhill High and Lynn Classical should produce some high-grade football when they tackle each other at the Haverhill Stadium tomorrow afternoon. Coach Jim Mansfield of Haverhill states that his team did well against Malden, but the latter was hardly up to the standard when It faced his club.

Classical has a good eleven, but Is not underestimating toe Haverhill High outfits strength. LOWELL REGULARS FIT FOR MANCHESTER GAME The largest crowd of the. season Is expected at Spaulding Park, Lowell, tomorrow afternoon, when the Manchester, H. High and Lowell High School football teams will be pitted against each other. Manchester can be expected to present Its usual formld able team coached by Hubert McDon ough and Lowell High has Improved under Coach Joe Nolans tutelage.

Lowell has met plenty of strong opposition thus far and has more than held Its own. It hopes to give the Manchester eleven a hard game. Several of Lowells best players have been out of the game owing to injuries, but is expected that all the regulars will be to tiptop shape for toe Manchester game. brookLine high will TACKLE WATERTOWN ELEVEN Brookline High, after its brilliant opening when it unexpectedly conquered Boston College High, will tackle the Watertown High School football eleven at toe Brookline High School field tomorrow morning, and this game ahould be closely contested. expected that at least four big boys will strive for the first prise.

la addition to the heavyweight class, the 112, 133, 147 and 100-pound divisions will be open. The 118 and 126-pound classes will for novices. i 1 4 'rr' I it 4 i 0-' 'V wy ix i A 1 7 LOUIS GLO Boston English Elrh. Dy ALBERT J. WOODLOCK Unusual Interest centered In too Columbus Day morning and afternoon football games which will be played throughout the State.

The contests to which the greatest amount of attention Is being given by the followers of school football are the two Suburban League, two Boston High School, toe one Mystic Valley League; Malden and Melrose, Haverhill and Lynn Classical High; Norwood High and Framingham High; Needham and Dedham: Mediord and Somerville Manchester, High and Lowell; Beverly and Peabody; Thayer Academy and Country Day: Mil-n High and Quincy; Lawrence High and Andover; Dean Academy and Academy and Stone-ham and Reading High School games. Banner crowds are probable at the two Suburban League games uetween Cambridge High and Rindge Technical School at Russell Field, North Cambridge, which will be called it io tomorrow morning, and toe other in toe afternoon between Everett and Newton High elevens at Everett. Cambridge High and Latin is favored to win over Rindge, although It Is no foregone conclusion that it will accomplish the feat because Rindge has saved many of its best players for the game which will decide the championship of University City. Everett, because of its achievement over Rindge, Saturday, appears to be a slight favorite over Newton, although the result of the game is likely to be very close. CANTABS' LINEUP HAS BEEN SHAKEN UP The Cambridge High and Latin eleven has been shifted around since the game with Newton Saturday; and Coach Leander MacDonald Is hopeful that the changes will add to the strength of his club.

Reardon, who is only 15 years of age, will be used at center instead of Bill Coady; Abe Katz, who has a bad ankle, may start at left end, although Dugan is sure to replace him Nolan, who played end part of the game against Newton, will be used at left half-back because Perry is not in the best of condition; Kenneth White will start at full back because Fred McFadgen has an Injury. Rindge Is hopeful that the players, who were unable to start against Everett High, will all he in tiptop condition and if they are the Tech School eleven will hand the Cantabs a real battle. Coach Dennis Gildea feels that hla Everett High eleven will be able to uncover Its best brand of football against Newton. Newton realizes that it has a task ahead of it and will endeavor to place a stronger eleven on the field than the one which faced Cambridge High and Latin Saturday. MANY TO WITNESS TMO BOSTON GAMES The demand for tickets for the two Boston hlgfe school games is greater than ever before, according to the managers of the Mechanic Arts High and Dorchester and Boston English High and Boston Trads School elevens, who will hold forth at Braves Field.

The first two clubs will take the field at 9:30 and that will be followed by toe English High and Trade game, which should be one of the best in toe Boston ranks thus far. Dorchester opened Its season the past week when It was victorious ovor East Boston High by a couple of touchdowns and it la hopeful that it can take the measure of Mechanio Arts High School. One Dorchester High player who will bear considerable watching is A1 Pimenthal, the quarter back, who was the star of the recent game against East Boston High School. He ran his team with rare judgment In toe opening game and has all the earmarks of a comer. Coach Jim Holland of Mechanio Arts has another fighting eleven that Is not going to take much backwash from any of the other Boston High School elevens.

Boston English High, with an Inexperienced eleven, will tackle Boston Trade, which has a woirthy outfit composed of numerous veterans. Trade has never beaten English In football, but it has tied the Light and Dark Blue. English opened Us season by winning over South Boston last week and Trade opened Saturday, when Middlesex School defeated It in a close contest. Louis Glovlnsky and Capt Jim Doherty are two English High players who will bear considerable T. A.

The alarm came from a nearby resident who saw flames. Tbe firemen found a broken bottle, which had contained an inflammable liquid. In the body of the car and notified police, who learned the machine was registered to George T. Connors of 66 Ridge st, Pawtucket-. No one was In the vicinity.

Police began an investigation In conjunction with Rhode Island authorities, believing the car was stolen. Sports la Nicaragua Since the United States Marines snared Nicaragua, inhabitants havs aken tip golf, baseball and tennis. A few months ago there was not a golf course in toe oountry, while today there are two in toe city of Managua. ll SGHAAF FAVORITE TO BEAT PAYNE The boxing game, stilled by the bat of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, will fall into stride again next Tuesday night, when Ernie Schaaf, blond Viking, will meet Tiger Jack Payne, heavyweight champion of Australia, In an attractive heavyweight battle at the Arena. With popular prices prevailing a capacity crowd is expected, for the bout will be held regardless of weather.

Col Bob McKlrdy, matchmaker for the Arena A is determined that popular-priced boxing is here to stay, and he plans on presenting national figures, such as Schaaf and Payne, at prices within the reach of all. They should stage the best heavyweight battle seen here in many months. The bout between Payne and Joe Monte was a sensational one, with Payne forging to the front because of his savage right-hand smashes under the heart. The coming bout between Schaaf i- id Payne should be even more sensational, for Schaaf, like Payne, depends on his punch and aggressiveness to win him victories. Many of the most astute In boxing circles are picking the colored sensation to whip Schaaf.

I like Payne. said Jerry Gardner, trainer of Jim Maloney and Dick Honey Boy)' Finnegan, yesterday. There arent many heavyweights in the world who will stand up before that right hand to the heart. Payne punches too hard for most of them, and I think he will punch too hard for Schaaf. Hes smart, too smart for the sailor.

Wait and see. The speculation among those connected with boxing la carried along to those who are merely customers. Schaaf has been Installed a I0-to-9 favorite, for Boston has seen him whip Pat McCarthy, Harold Mays, Jack Gagnon, Big Boy Peterson and a dozen or more heavyweights. The blond Viking is always trying, always throwing punches. He Is game to the core, and on his heart alone he whips many a boxer who Is better equipped with punch and skill.

That he rules a favorite, even though only a slight favorite, is a tribute to his fighting heart. The eight-round semifinal between Larry Brlgnolia of Cambridge and Charlie Donovan of Dorchester ranks with the main bout as a real fight. Brlgnolia and Donovan are two of the best young welterweights in New England, and they will be fighting for the right to meet A Mello for the New England title. Yesterday Joe (Hambone) Kelly at South Boston was added to the card. The South Boston slugger was signed to box Big Boy Burlap, colored heavyweight from Westerly, In a six-rounder.

Joseph plans to limit his activity to six-round bouts, and as he goes along, some of the stars will be brought here to fight hi min special six-round bouts. PLANS PROGRESSING FOR TESTIMONIAL TO BURKE A call has been Issued for a meeting of friends of too late Police Inspector Michael Burke, to form a general committee to conduct a testimonial. This meeting will be held at the Elks Hotel next Sunday afternoon at 3 oclock. Inspector Michael Morrissey, for 20 years a partner of Burke, is temporary chairman of the committee, and has expressed toe wish that all interested persons, whether members of toe Police Department or not, be present at the Initial meeting, so that subcommittees may be appointed without delay. Definite arrangements have been made for the testimonial at Boston Arena on Tuesday evening, Oct 30, and the services of the leading boxers and first-class theatrical performers have already been assured.

JOHNNY MOORloUT TO 7 BEAT ZERAMBY MONDAY Jake Zeramby. nrlde of Lynn, will meet Johnny Moore, hard-hitting North End featherweight, in the feature bout of the Crescent A. C. at Casino Hall, Lynn, next Monday night. Moores young brother, Frankie, was defeated by Zeramby a few weeks ago In one of the most slashing battles ever staged to Casino Hall, and Johnny, who Is gunning for Sammy Fullers New England featherweight title, will attempt to avenge hla brothers defeat.

i Johnny Is a savage puncher, and Zerambys whole future may be ruined by one of his sweeping left hooks. Moore was originally matched to meet Sammy Fuller there, but Fuller refused to make the weight and Zeramby was substituted for the New England champion. The uaua preliminary card will precede the main bout, and will be announced In a few days. HEAVIES TO FEATURE ST JOES SHOW SATURDAY Entries for the weekly St Joseph's ley and Harold Fahey In the backfield. The Assumption C.

C. players will be on their toes for they want a Fitton game, and If they can lick or tie the Saints tomorrow will be put on the Fitton schedule. Last week they tied the James A. Roche Club of Everett, 7 to 7, at Everett. Peres to Tackle Great Club When the Pere Marquette football team of South Boston plays the Cleveland Panthers at Braves Field Saturday afternoon.

It will be tackling a club with a fine record. The Panthers play independent professional football and are believed to be as good, if not better, than members of the regular pro league. College stars will predominate In the game, as hoth the Panthers and Pere lineups axe replete with players who made names for themselves while at college. Headlining the Panther lineup are Critchfield of Wooster, Panek of Ohio State and Conrad of Kalamazoo, rated as a great center trio. Then they have Kenneth Watson, once of Nebraska, who was a member of the team that beat Notre Dame a few years ago, and Eddie Blickle, halfback, former Ohio Wesleyan star, who, besides his Panther duties, coaches the Glenvllle High School In Cleveland.

The Peres will have their full strength. The two-team Idea is In full awing at South Boston and Coach Tom Whalen has the men necessary for It. The passing of Billy Wise with Man-der, Tony Karpowich or Bud Dower on the receiving ends is expected to go big, while Jim Wallis, Swede Johhson, Billy OLeary, Paul KIttredge and Cy Wentworth are expected to carry through behind a live line. The Peres have Steve Kobollnskl, a great roving center; Ohrenberger, Boston College star at tackle; Ray Paten, another ex-B. C.

star, at guard; Gus Cevenln, Holy Cross man, at the other guard Tyler at tackle, and Power and Karpowich at end. ST MARKS VS ST AMBROSE ELEVEN AT DORCHESTER St Marks and St Ambrose, friendly rivals of the Dorchester district, will meet in an athletic contest once again when the elevens play on the Dorchester town field tomorrow morning. Coach Joe Harrell of St Ambrose, formerly star of the St Johns team of Brooklyn, has won one game and lost one this season. This is St Mark's first year playing football. Coach Jimmy Sullivans boys gave an excellent account of themselves in the opening title, holding the much heavier Allston Tiger team to eight points last Sunday.

FUTON ELEVEN PLAYSflBINGTON Grudge Battle Tomorrow 1 e-Other Semipro Tilts Tomorrow afternoon the Fitton A. C. of Fast Boston travels to Abington to play the Abington Town team at Old Town Field.

A band will accompany the team and many East Boston supporters are planning to make the trip, either by train, which leaves the South Station at 1 oclock, or over the road. The game has all the Ingredients of a real grudge contest. Two years ago the teams met at Abington and played to a scoreless tie, then repeated the deadlock at East Boston last year. Then there Is the presence of Carl Etelman as coach of Abington team. For two years Etelman was a power In the Fitton backfield, turning many a seeming defeat into a victory with his skill and daring.

Now that he Is mentor for the Abington outfit, the Fittons will need all their skill and strength to pull out a win. Some new faces will be seen In the Fitton line-up, for Coach Ed Brawley Is taking on new players and discarding those who do not make tbe grade. Prominent among them are Hurley, ex-Notra Dame star, and Eddie OConnor, ex-Unlversity of Peabody star. Both are trying for the fullback Job, but have the formidable Rusty' Yarnell In the way. The Fittons have an excellent team this year, and have high hopes of ramming home a score agalnBt Abington.

On the ends they have Hutchinson, ex-East Boston High player, and Joe Rut-sky, smother former East Boston High star and late of Bates College. For tackles they have Guiney, old-time Fit-ton star and once of Bates, and Stevens, formerly of Brown and a Fitton veteran. At guard they have OBrien, hefty Boston College star, and Ga-mache, well-known Harvard star, and at center is Capt Irwin, another Fitton standby and an old East Boston High athlete. In the backfield the Fittons have In Howie Burns a sweet quarter back who was recently graduated from Harvard College; Tony Ford, a Fitton ace last year, who was once a Boston College luminary, at half-back; Plummer, Medford High star, at the other half-back with Ford, and Busty Yarnell, ex-Vermont star. Coach Brawley has a flock of worthwhile substitutes this year, something that has usually been lacking In a Fitton squad.

At end he has Fay, New York University star, and Kel-leher; Robinson of Bowdoin at tackle; Swan, ex-Boston College High School, at guard; Bride, ex-Provldence College, at quarter back, and Howes of Bowdoin, Powers. Reagan of Boston College, Brennan of Holy Cross, Hurley of Notre Dame, and Eddie O'Connor as half-backs. Interest In Sonthie Game Another holiday game that is attracting much interest will be played at C. J. Bee Playground between the SS Peter and Paul A.

A. of South Boston and the Assumption C. C. of East Boston. So far the Saints have defeated the Quincy Wanderers and taken a licking from Abington, the latter game being the opening clash.
