S. Eyes On Dinny Sport-O-Grams Grid Pros To Strut Here In September Louis' Challenger 0 it ILrtE- Football is over two months away, although you wouldn't think it by the weather we've been having, but here's one hot off the griddle: The Scranton Miners of the new American Professional League and the Richmond, Va Rebels of the Dixie Pro League will have it out in Mount Carmel High School Stadium on the night of Wednesday, September 11. Coach Ben Wolfson of the Miners, not so long ago head man at dear Simbury's Yankees Back On Home Lot -and tvhen Joe nailed him in that a1-" he did wore than belt the title J'lJWes out of Conn's belfry wLlV III 1 XG K'JK Tune-Ups Would BY HARRY GRAYSON NEA Sports Editor NEW YORK, June 22 Billy Conn's wretched showing against Joe Louis further stresses the need of test bouts for the combatants in any important fight. This is especially true in cases where the savages have beon out of ring action for any length of time and even more so when they are widely bally hooed for the purpose of being sold at fancy prices. Had Conn been forced to prove himself in a couple of tune-ups following five years on the fistic sidelines, the bulk of it in the Army, chances are that he would have been denied the oppor tunity to disappoint 45,266 persons at Yankee Stadium and more than 50,000,000 throughout the world.

As bad as Is' the current heavy weight division, outside of Louis, any one of a half dozen members of it would have beaten the timid Conri of the other evening. "I just didn't have it," said Conn, when they led him, away from there. "I'm not there any more. That was a fine time for Billy the Kid to admit he was as washed up as a canceled postage stamp after it had been clearly demon strated to everybody. 'I'm not a matchmaker," says Chairman Eddie Eagan, when asked why the Boxing Commission rmitted Mike Jacobs to present the second edition of Louis and Conn as a pig in a poke at a In London By OSCAR FRALEY NEW YORK, June 22.

(U.R) America's 'hopes of recapturing the famed Davis Cup will be previewed in London today when an Ecuadorian plays an Australian. The Ecuadorian is Francisco iPan-cho) Segura, the swarthy fugitive from Shakespearian drama who is not on the American Cup team. The Australian is Dinny, Pails, 20-year-old sensation who they believe "down under" is the answer to their pat-ball prayers. Just how well Pancho does against Pails will tell much to the United States' net masterminds who are plotting to win back the big silver mug from the Anzacs. If Pails blows him off the court in the London grass 4 court finals, it will be very bad news for the home folks.

Pancho is the two-handed attacker who for the past few years has come so close to the national amateur crown but always lacked that little extra something. Today he is our grass court guinea pig. 1 His showing against Pails will determine just how good the youngr Australian is. If he lives up to advance notices, the challenging team for the cup at Melbourne the last week In December is going to be making the long trip for nothing. The real difference between Conn and Louis was that Billy jvas too little and loo is left to give Jce Louis a good a fat purse? GO AHEAD-MAME Om he had already paid income tax.

To get what he had coming was the principal reason why Mike Ja cobs, about ready to bow out, pro DISTRICT LEAGUES CITY BASEBALL iPlsft I M'J Vt A Cm p'Ptut of. work-' XI I for who is I left to oVe Iks In Tie With Shenandoah For Region Lead SUNBURY, June 22. Sunbury'a Ir.ter-State League Yankees return home tonigljt to open a five-day stand against Hagerstown and Trenton, before leaving on a road trip that will keep them away until July 4. They take on Hagerstown in i single game under the arcs at 9 o'clock tonight In Memorial Park and draw the same foe in a double-header Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock.

The Owls, owned by Oren Sterling, erstwhile Mifflinburg industrialist, are the most seasoned team in the league and, with a well balanced lineup of experience and youth under the capable direction of Bunny Griffith, are making, a serious bid for the circuit lead. Trenton's Giants follow for three night games in a row at Sunbury, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, each scheduled for 8:15 o'clock. The Monday game, not on the regular schedule, was washed out in May and is being made up. Trenton led the league during the first six weeks of the season and is battling with Wilmington to remain on top. General Mine Collars Lions General Mine, backed by Susnos-kie's five-hit twirling, evened things with the Mount Carmel Lions by coming out on the long end of a 7-0 score in a City Baseball League game at the high school stadium here last evening.

Paulson, with three safeties, Zia-lowski and Narcavage, with two, led the Miners' ten-hit attack. Included in Paulson's collection was a homer. Rooney hurled good ball for the Lions but his teammates fell apart in the field, committing no less than seven errors.

COME AND GET IT' But Pails is the reason that Sir Norman Brookes, head of the Australian Tennis Association, recently challenged the world to "come and get it." They expect him to be the number two man in singles, along with slugging John Bromwich. They were worried for a while, the Aussies, because while- they still had Bromwich anjl the slim Adrian Quist winners of the cup in 1939 they didn't think the aging Quist could hold up for two singles matches plus a dou- bles battle. But if Pails continues to come through, they can save Quist for doubles.

Young Dinny, a short and chunky article in shorts who resembles Bobby Riggs, currently is ranked second behind Bromwich in Australia. Twice he defeated Big Jawn in tournament finals and often has defeated Quist. Pails knocked off Adrian in the semi-finals of the Australian nationals and then, in what experts called the greatest final match in the history of the championships, lost in five sets to Bromwich. The scores were 5-7, 6-3, 7-5, 3-6, 6-2. TOPS IN AUSTRALIA Jack Crawford, former Aussie cupper, and Harry Hopman, who captained the winning 1939 team, both call the hairy-legged Dinny the most promising player ever developed in Australia.

That takes in a lot of territory. His booming service is one of his greatest assets, although he has all the other shots necessary for top-flight tennis. Hopman rates it on a par with the cannon ball delivery of Bill Tilden, Don Budge and Ellsworth Vines. He -should know, for Pails aced him a dozen times while marching to the Australian finals. "He can swing his delivery for "an ace against forehand or backhand in either court," Hopman explained.

Have Eliminated Billy Conn Eddie Eagan precedent-setting $100 top. There is nothing in the boxing law requiring fighters of questioned ability or condition to first demonstrate that they have something on the ball. Nothing in the law gives the, board the right to regulate prices. With those two consequential functions strictly in the hands of the promoter, there is cause for wonder why there is a commission in the first place. The late Gen.

John J. Phelan's double-talk may have been amusing at times but things might have been different had the old boy been running the works when Louis and Conn came along for a second helping. Chairman Phelan put teeth Into the law by having commission rules adopted. Seaman Watson was the featherweight champion of Great Britain when he arrived to tackle Fidel LaBarba and Kid Chocolate early In 1933 but General Phelan didnt know too much about him. So Watson first had to hold his Maurer Pounds Gap Club, 19-7 Maurers Dairy outpasted Locust Gap in an Anthracite Baseball League game on the Gap field last evening, 19-7.

Scoring runs in big clusters, six in the first inning, four in the second, seven in the fourth, the Mount Carmel Milkmen were never in danger. Along with hits aplenty, there were errors galore, seven on the Maurer side and five in the Gapites' column. MAURER'S DAIRY Pieri, 3b 3 B.

Right npw, especially there is a ceiling price on practically everything else, so why not One on prizefighting? Jacobs, as Tex Rickard did before him, belts the game in the bread basket by charging outrageous prices. The talent comes from the ranks of, the common people. Boxing always has been the poor man's game, so it is unwife and grossly unfair to turn over completely the big ones to Park Avenue, Wall Street and Black Market Boulevard. As we wrote some time back, Louis knew all along that Conn was a Christmas package. The willingness, even eagerness, the Brown Bomber expressed for a second edition made you suspect that.

From the instant he stepped from the ring five years ago, the champion said it would be Billy the Kid and the Collar Ad alone in the repeater. He even built the Pittsburgh Irisher's case, said he richly deserved another chance, stressed -that he was an attraction, insisted that Jacobs give him 20 instead of 15 per cent. With Max Schmeling pressing his case from the roof tops, Louis kept the Ferocious Frankfurter waiting two years, until he was that much farther advanced and the Pretzel Pounder proportionately not even Jce Louis-just don't plug an opponent when they expect difficulty. moted the thing in the first place. Uncle Mike never did object te the public paying his bills or those of his debtors.

MOUNT CARMEL TAGS MAHANOY AND JOE BOLEY The lead in the regional EyfB' Softball League was all tied up today and Mount Carmel had a finger in the knot. At-Maysville last evening, the Mount Carmel Bills popped off Mahanoy City with Joe Boley, once of the world champion Philadelphia Athletics in the late '20's and early '30s. Score, 9-3. Thus, the north Oak streeters matched Shenandoah's record of four wins and two lossee, at the of the six-rung ladder. Mount Carmel shoved off to a 3-0 first inning lead, Mahanoy deadlocked it at 3-3 in the third but Manager Lew Hartzell's locals came back to pick up two runs in the fifth and four more in the sixth for victory in the seven-inning joust.

Previous to the encounter, the Carmelites and the Mahanoymen had been tied for second place, a half-game back of the Shens who ran into another upset at Frack-vllle's paws this week, 14-3. Outside of the third frame, Joe Paskevich, on the hill for the Hart-zellmen, sprinkled seven hits among the Schuylkill County club's batsmen, E. P'ecca and Lawrence getting two apiece. Boley, not the trim and graceful figure he used to be with Connie Mack's A's, was unable to connect safely but he was right there in the field, at first base where he accepted 11 chances without a slip. Mount Carmel gathered 12 base knocks off Mahanoy's chueker, Roberts.

Steve Bolich blazed the path with three, including a home run smack. MAHANOY CITY own with three tough kids In the Pioneer Gymnasium before he got a license, If Watson at a minor fee, why not Conn at $100? Chairman Eagan at least had a precedent. All hands had to qualify in the old days regardless of their repu tation. When he first arrived in San Francisco from New Zealand, even the great Bob Fitzsimmons had to show in private what he could do against good ones, In justice to Louis and Conn, both wanted to square off with others' before engaging one another again Louis signed with the proviso that if the Collar Ad were allowed to participate In any tune-up bouts, the same privilege would be accord ed the champion. Johnny Ray, managing Conn, balked at the clause limiting the challenger to exhibitions, ref eree-Ing and radio appearances.

Ray haggled for a couple of days before yielding to pressure. "What could I do?" asked Ray. "Jacobs had the champion. But perhaps some of the fight public might be skeptical about whether or not Conn can still fight. It wouldn't hurt to let them see for themselves whether Billy has gone back or not.

We'd like to make sure ourselves." Jacobs was taking no chances with what he believed would be a $3,000,000. gate, however, especially when one battler owed him $132,000 and the other $100,000 on which Jays Again Slip; Atlas Wins 7th Atlas Fire Company, rallying In the tenth inning for three runs, Including a tremendous home run clout by Pete Linetty, newest pitching sensation, thumped the Langis A.C., 8-5, last evening in a City Soft-' ball League game. It was the seventh consecutive league triumph for the Firemen who, trailing by one run, 5-4, in the eighth, tied the score in the ninth on a single by Moratelli and a double by Johnny DiRienzo. The Langismen, behind in the score by a 4-2 count In the fourth inning, took a one-run lead in the eighth when they scored three runs but the Firemen fought back, tied it up in the ninth and won in the tenth. Nolter topped the Firemen with three safeties.

You see, Woifson happened to be among those present here in mid-September of last year when those college elevens, Bueknell and University' of Scranton, met under the bright lights at the "Silver Bowl," to give a lift to the Living War Memorial Fund in this burg, and he was so impressed with the setup, the splendid fan turn-out, that he kept it in the noodle for reference, the story goes.

It'll be one of those games in the exhibition category, naturally, but that doesn't mean a thing, for the gridmen really dish it out these days, exhibition or no exhibition. We have only to go back to the Philadelphia Eagles-Chicago Bears special at Bethlehem on another September night in '45, the eve the well-meaning Tornado Club here took High's footballmen to see the fireworks and fireworks they saw a couple of fist fights and what-not mixed in. Yeh, that was a so-called exhibition Murder, from our seat. Tne American Pro League, not to be confused with the likewise-new All-America Pro Conference, was formed just several months ago. It is a minor loop but a high-ranking one, let's say like the International, the American Association or Pacific Coast in baseball next door to the majors.

Both the American and Dixie, as we have working agreements with the old National Pro League and teams such as Scranton and Richmond will get the babies who are only a step or two away from the big stuff, in need of more polishing, you know. So, there should be enough well-known names, future greats, out there on the turf, come September 11 Meanwhile, Mount Carmel can't help but feel good about having been singled out as host by a couple of cities like Scranton and Richmondthe third largest in Pennsy and the capital of Virginia, if we till know our figures and our geography. 'ONE OF THE BOYS' Connie Ficca, back home in Atlas from New York where he was one of the delegates to the Louis-Conn heavyweight waltz until the 8th, says they would have tossed Joe and Billy out the ring if the same thing happened at Lake-wood. The Mount Carmel Township businessman-school director, according to a chap who sits near us, adds that he's going to spend ten cents more to frame his $100 stub and then put on a name made famous by Barnum. A lot of other fellows feel the same way, judging by all accounts.

William Ambrose and Joseph Goliash, who have enlisted in the Army, are none other than Bill Ambrose and Joe Goliash, center and guard respectively of Mount Carmel High's 1945 football eleven, close pals off the field, too Ed Strunk's telephone call from Coal Town-; ship to tell us that Bob Bal-chunas, Purple Demon baske-! teer, and Francis (Wrhitey) Korkuch, ex-Shamokin Greyhound, have been accepted by Coach Clair Bee of Long Island is again a reminder that "Long Tom" Strike, former M.

Felix Bocicchio, once of Atlas or Exchange just as you have it, is described by Bill McGaw of the Philadelphia Record as Jersey Joe Walcott's "ring father" and Lou Messina as Walcott's "manager of record." They're pretty well peeved, anyhow, about Mike Jacobs picking Tami Mauriello and not Jersey Joe as Joe Louis' next even our friend, Mike Lane, Ashland scribe, is finally convinced that professional wrestling is "circus stuff."

Clark's position was disclosed after Assistant Attorney General Wendell Berge, chief of the department's anti-trust division, said he (Continued on Page Nine) If Pails bears out all these fine predictions, it can be very bad newsQ for America's Davis Cup Be-V- RED SOX PERK; HUGHSON TOPS FELLER, 1 TOO BY CORNELIUS RYAN NEW YORK, June 22.

(U.R) Tex Hughson, the lean righthander who was supposed to be the kingpin of the Boston Red Sox staff but turned out to be their only losing pitcher during an early-season spurt, was back on the throne today, a fitting place for a man who outpitched Bob Feller. Hughson's victory last night was a royal job from any angle. He allowed only three hits in taking the 1 to 0 game from Cleveland. Feller allowed five. Hughson struck out nine; Feller seven.

And Hugh-son's victory was of Inestimable value in the morale department. It stopped a four-game Boston losing streak and such a triumph, coming over the best pitcher In baseball, was a tremendous shot in the arm for the stumbling Bosox who had lost seven of eight previous games. The one victory was by Hughson at Chicago. Also to be considered was the effect it would have on the New York Yankees who fell before Hal Newhouser at Detroit, 6 to 2, to drop to seven and one-half games off the pace. The Yanks had begun to revive pennant hopes as Boston lost game after game.

The Red Sox made their own breaks as they won.

In view of what happened at Yankee Stad ium the other night, the $100 ticket set boxing back 100 years. It will take the beak busting business fully that long to recover from Billy Conn's miserable showing against Joe Louis. It can safely be said that Mike Jacobs is through with the $100 ducat, which is well.

Ring extravaganzas long since have ceased to become the average man's sport. Those in the middle and lower income tax brackets have to take theirs via the air waves and it would be highly advisable for Promoter Jacobs, or whoever succeeds him as the big shot, to do something about this: The excessive tariff was the principal reason why the attendance at the Louis-Conn encore was 30,000 less than what was anticipated. It would have been much healthier for the dodge had 75,000, instead of 45,266, paid that $1,925,564. Lack of transportation and hotel facilities for out-of-towners hurt, of course, but the prices kept patrons of small clubs in 'the vicinity away. Jacobs realized his mistake at the eleventh hour and kindly consented to let 10,000 stand at $5 a rattle.

They didn't stand for long. There were plenty of empty seats for them to move into.
