RehseUit to OamMo
The Army a silence regarding
Louis has halted 'all pertinent do* ,
velopmonts in tho heavyweight di-
vision. Pastor is most deserving
of a title bout. Private Billy Conn
probably would draw tho biggest
gate and Bettlna possibly could put
up tho most Interesting fight. Since
all throe have a chance, they art
reluctant to gambit It away.
MoMwhllo. the once raucous
noises along tho beach have boon
hushed almost as completely as the
once glowing lights along nearby
broodway have been dimmed.
Jacobs has a Isaac on the Garden
bat he already has fulfilled the
contract there. However, he also
bolds leases on the hall parks and
unless he whips up two or three
attractions soon he will lose the
options.
Black-out regulate Ins have not
specified whether out-door bouts
may be hold In Manhattan proper
but smaller clubs In tho outskirts
havo been doing business as usual
If major arc-light bouts are ban-
ned. Jacobs has Indicated that he
would not be averse to afternoon
programs. But first he must find
two young men to use In an after-
noon program
Right now It is safe to assume
that there will be no major bout in
Now York for another six weeks

Tho Cardinals, moving with te-
nacity in pursuit of tho champion
Dodgsra, havo trimmed their Na-
tional league deficit down to 41s
games la recent days, the closest
thdy've been to Brooklyn since
May 8. Enos SUugnte.- a tenth in-
ning homer—No 5 for him—gave
the Cards a 4-3 victory over Carl
Hhbbel and the Gtaats yesterday.

The Cards are charging ahead
with a pv, pose. After today’s game
with the Giants the tobacco-chew-
lag. hard-running, dirty-uniformed
Bang from old St Loo move into
rtatbuah for a ding-dong 5-game
aeries la four days. Then and there,
in Ebbets Field, the Cards hope
to get off their half-game diet and
do some serious slashing at the
Brooklyn lead.
The Rod Sox hove a long wa>
to go to too daylight but right
now they are tho hottest thing in
tho American League. Joe Cronin a
outfit won its ninth straight game
law night, opening their second
weatera invasion with a neat 4-2
trtomph over the St. Louis Browns
Moot encouraging from tho Rod

Thus tho Yankee load melted

this la a little to worry about, but
at the same time tho Rod Box
