They are Warren Sun Again, which never has run a bad race; R. Sterlin Clochis, never out of the money until the Wood Memorial, and Louis B.

Wrapping up lufew loose threads; BOXING One of the strangest matches the big town has seen in years will be fought Thursday night at St. when Lulu Constantino gambles his 56 bout victory streak against a Negro fighter old enough to be his father. The young east side product he is barely 20 will square off with Chalky Wright, one of the nmst characters in the ring today. The record books say Wright i.s only 30, hut the gray' beards on La miner's Lane in.sist he is cio.ser to 40. He was a main event tighter around Los Angeles when Henry was a preliminary boy.

Almo.st seven years ago he quit the ring to chauffeur for Mae We.st and he has been up and down oftener than the mercury in a thermometer. At the moment, he is recognized in several as featherweight champion and has lost only one of his la.st 24 Isnrts. Constantino, meanwhile, has the longest undefeated string in the professional game. BASEBALL The argument to all arguments is finished and Ford Frick is the w'inner by a knockout. The good, gray National league president has human amplifying syntems as Leo "The Lip" Durocher and Frank "The Fog Horn" Frisch that the next time they ru.sh from their dugouts to dispute a decision they will be ru.shed out of the park.

At first was content to fine the offenders of the "no more unnecessary arguments" rule but now he has waved his big the threat of prompt suspension. I am willing to throw the first dollar into a fund to buy Frick a gift of appreciation for his action. At no time can I remember an umpire changing his decision and I was long ago convinced that the managers seldom stormed on the field if they had a good lead. Let them trail by a run or two, however, and they will dispute the day of the week and the name of the city in which they are playing. The St.

laniis Browns may not be the mo.st financially successful of major teams, but they know how to leave them smiling when they say goodbye to a minor league franchise.

have to produce the batting champion (Pete Reiser); the No. 1 pitcher In both win-lose and earned run average (Elmer Riddle); the No. 3 pitcher (Ernie White), and the base stealing champion (Danny Murtaugh). The situation may have changed by now, but we noted not long ago that the University of Chicago had lost 31 straight conference basketball games and 23 straight baseball games. And we thought football was the only sport the Maroons dropped.

Just a case of sympathetic pains, no doubt. Dolph Camilli w'as chosen the National most valuable player la.st year altho he hit only .28.5. What made him mo.st valuable, then It W'as his slugging average, which tells much more of what a player is doing for his team than the simple batting average. The batting average is figured by dividing the hits by the at-bats to three decimal places. The slugging average is the total ba.ses divided by the at-bats.

12. Compiled From Press Dispatches. As the governor of South Carolina said to the governor of North Carolina, "You can ignore Old Bobo just so long, suh, and The governor of South Carolina was referring to Louis Norman Newsom, that esteemed citizen of Hartsviile, S. who calls himself and everyone else but signs his name "Buck." Newson, with his Carolina strut, picture card posing and general assortment of grandstand maneuvers, really to.ssed one for the boys, especially Jack Zeller, general manager of the Detroit Tigers. When the firing was over Wednesday in Wa.shington the Senators had licked the 7-0, and New'som had a one hit game to his credit.

The only hit off Newsom was a triple by Doc Cramer, former Senator outfielder, in the third inning. On the next play Cramer was trapped off third on Barney grounder. Newsom fanned four and walked the same number in his fourth and sweetest victory of the season. The fact that the defeat dropped the Tigers down to fourth place make Buck sorry at all. Buck is a likeable, easy going fellow in his way but he has developed a seething, unquenchable hatred for his former boss, Jack Zeller.

Zeller cut salary from $32,500 down to $12,000 and Buck like that. why with Washington now. The rumors have been going around the grapevine circuit that Newsom had lost hLs fast ball and the shellacking Cleveland gave him last Saturday to confirm those tales.
