NEW YORK, April 16 (UP)—Harry Gumbert, a right-
handed hurler who came to the New York Giants late last
season from the Baltimore Orioles, shapes up as the answer
to Bill Terry’s prayers for another capable starting pitcher.
Gumbert, who worked in six games a year ago and scored
one victory, was called the ”kej<-

fore the 1986 season started.
Yesterday he was given his first I
assignment and came through with I

PHILADELPHIA, April 16
(UP)—Leroy (Howitzer) Haynes,
Philadelphia’s hardtittin negro
heavyyveight, was recognized in
pugilistic circles today as a “black
menace” to Joe Louis prestige.
Haynes knocked out Natie
Brown of Washington, the last
man to stay the full 10 rounds
with the Brown bomber, in two
rounds last night.

Haynes previously had

Brown previously had not tak-

years of professional fighting.
In his dressing room, Brown,
who had withstood 10 rounds of
battering by Joe Louis a year
ago last March, told reporter;:
“That guy Haynes is the only
man I know who could give Louis
a fight and maybe lick him. He

OVERTON, April 15 I.Spl)
The official opening of the season
for the Overton Soft Ball League
took place last night at the city
ball park. Prior to the opening,
a grand parade was staged through
the streets of the town. Begin-
ning at the school campus at
4:30 p in. The parade was led
by the four centennial Rangerette
girls on horseback, with John
Lumpkin, president of the asso-
ciation. and Mat Barton, president
of the Ovetron Chamber of Com-
merce. They were followed by
the London and Overton school
bands, and the Vicks soft ball
team, who were attired in bright
red and white uniforms.
A caravan of cars and pedestr-
ians took part in the affair which
continued through the principal
streets of the city, lasting for
more than one hour. The side-
walks were overflowed with people
who viewed the show, and await-
ed the opportunity to witness the
first soft ball games here.
Before a crowd estimated
1600 Mr. Lumpkin proclaimed the
soft ball season opened, and May-
or John Timberlake tossed the
first ball from the grand stand.
Four elimination games were
played of two innings each. In
the first tilt, the Magnolia team

But at the same time we gladly offer you our experience. We’ll

CLEVELAND. April 16. (UP)
- - Battle-scarred young veterans
of the amateur ring 128 of them
—moved out of a wild night of
glove-swinging into Hie second
round of the National A. A. U.
senior boxing championships to-
day.
The three-ring tournament,
which will crown eight A. A. U.
champions and qualify 32 boys for
the Olympic trials in Chicago next
month, opened riotously with |
nearly 5,000 fans cheering and I
jumping to their feet through six
hours of slam-banging
When the last gong sounded in
the early morning, more than half
of the record number of entrants
had been eliminated, some of the
amateurs fighting twice in order
to reach the second round.
It was the first time in the his-
tory of the A. A. U. tournaments
that three rings were utilized. Not
until several hours after the close
of the first round were the re-
sults correctly tabulated.
Ninety-si.x bouts will be fought
tonight. By Friday night, tho
field will have been reduced to the
.32 semi-finalists and at the close
of the same evening, to the eight
division champions.
Thirty-three of the 37 district
associations in the United States
and Hawaii were represented.
The northeast Ohio Squad, with
the greatest number of entrants,
16, emerged from the first round
with ten survivors to lead the
field. Teams from New York Chi-
cago and Southern California were
expected to offer chief opposition
to the Ohioans.
If there was an outstanding per-
former last night, it was Lupo
Cordoza, Southern California Ban-
tam. Cordoza, working like a
machine, scored a two-round
knockout over Eric Koverg, of the
Ozark Association. Others who
showed fine form included Al
Mancini, Boston bantamweight;
Jimmy Clark, middleweight from
Jamestown. N. Y.; Jackie Wilson,
112, and Jim Baker, heavyweight,
of the Ohio squad; Jose Mercado,
Hawaiian flyweight, and Jack
Wofford, heavyweight from south-
ern California.

canvas. I couldn’t help wonder-
ing yesterday, as I shoved and
pushed my way about Jamaica,
what one of the beautifully bred
horses, with a heritage that went
proudly back through the years,
thought when he look over that
crowd, with its surging majority
of bums, tramps, chlselers, wise
gpys and no-goods. Honestly, I
could almost hear him muse:
"The sport of kings, eh? That
makes that bunch royalty, eh?
What a sweet looking bunch of
princes and princesses!"
This observer has seen all the
types of sports crowds in his
years In the newspaper business,
but the racing crowd Is the sor-
riest of the lot. Yes, worse than
the fight crowd, and that’s saying
something. The race crowd is
the shabbiest in dress' and the
shabbiest In behavior. Walk
through a race crowd and try to
find a smile, hear a laugh. You
wont. You won’t find any of the
gaiety, the lightness, that seems
to grip people when they get to-
gether In thousands at all forms
of sport. Racing crowds are out
for business. In any crowd save
a race one, you’ll hear a good
word for the loser or losers.
Around the track the loser is al-
ways a "bum,” had a "bum" rid-
ing him, and is a no good “bum”
who ought to be shot.
It wasn’t until yesterday that
I noticed how little the actual
race meant to racetrack custo-
mers. Half of them don’t even
look at the track when a race Is
being run. but spend their time
studying form sheets, thumbing
over money, or just sitting down

His tribute to the thoroughbred

the horse he had his money on,

Fiery Giant shortstop. Bartell
