A decided suc cess, according to the versions of the officials .this event which at tracted the city’s finest boxers, will • be an annual one. Led by the Dinnerman-Morrissey battle, the bouts last night ran true to form with the veterans coming out on top. Dinnerman, although he won his battle over the stocky lit tle Irishman, was unable to put Pete out, because o.’ the crouch the latter was fighting from. Defending himself well, Morrissey appeared to be well instructed as to how to avoid the smashing left hand of the Jewish battler.

GRIP-.- Number 916 ALEX MORRISON says: As the troubled sleeper looks for the cause of his nightmares, SO the golfer searches for the point where he gets an overdose of right side into his swing. “Too much right’’ can start in a million different ways. Once started it sweeps like a raging fire through the whole swing. And it takes only a spark of en couragement to put the strong side in control. Very often it’s hard to locate the spark that started the uncon trollable right. Such a spark oc curs when the hands are being placed on the club. Since it is only natural to lead with and favor the right hand, a player will do so even though he intends to favor and give most of his atten tion to his left hand. This leads to the habit of plac ing the right hand on the club first, a habit which may seem harmless, but which really marks the beginning of “too much right”.

Earl Spillers got off to a good start in the first round of his match with Tony Brown and won the decision hands down. Brown taking the place of Tony Kent whose hand was injured, played a waiting game which seemed to be made to order for his rangy opponent. Babe Al pert won the heavyweight honors from Cranman, who obviously was not in shape. Roy Spillers lost his match with Nathan in one of the most exciting matches on the card, when these two boys got together. Fighting on top of Spillers all three rounds, Nathan appeared to to relish the idea of Spillers get ting set to use a left, and with this in mind, kept inside of his tall and rangy opponent. The final winners were: Jay Shoob, 105 pound division. Cocky Alpert, flyweight,. Irving Nathan, Bantam. Harry Caines, Featherweight. Earl Spillers, Lightweight. Joe Dinerman, Welterweight. Hendon Pittman. Light heavy weight. Babe Alpert, Heavyweight.

St. Louis fans saw the standout mound duel. The New York Giants opened their Western invasion with the veteran, Carl Hubbell, on the mound. The St. Louis Cards banked on Leroy Parmelee, the former Giant, and their hopes were well-founded. Parmelee beat Hubbell and the Giants, 2 to 1, in a nip and tuck 17- inning struggle. The ex-Giant held his former teammates to six safeties. Frankie Frisch’s gas house gang touched Hubbell for 11. In Chicago, the fans witnessed an other A-l pitching exhibition when Bill Lee twirled the Cubs to a 1 to 0 triumph over Van Mungo and the Brooklyn Dodgers. Each hurler al lowed only four hits, but Mungo let the Cubs bunch three of theirs in the fifth inning. It was Gabby Hart nett’s blow that pushed over the win ning tally.

YESTERDAY’S WIN GIVES HOME TEAM A DIVIDED SERIES P.ced by Elliott, the clouting third baseman, and playing errorless tc.ll behind Jake Levy, the veteran hurler the Savannah Indians yesterday hung up a 2 to 0 victory on the Macon Peaches. Playing heads-up baseball, the Tribe regained some of their lost ground in the pennant race, when they get to Hernandez for seven hits, with the fireworks coming in the third and fifth innings. The Indians started the ball roll ing in the third inning when Elliott and West walked, advanced when Levy laid a bunt down for a sacri fice. Elliott then scored on a sin gle by Eddie Moore. Elliott later scored in the fifth in ning on a single by Causier. This concluded the run making for the In dians and they were content to play tight bal for Levy who was making the Peaches behave every time they faced him. Marked by the hitting of Elliott, who more than made up for his bob bling in the second game of the se ries ,the Indians were a vastly im proved club over their former show ings. Showing some of the finish ex pected of them by their home root ers, they will move into the Seacoast city for a series with the Augusta club. SAVANNAH AB R H PO A E.
