‘Shauno’ Collins Quits After
Club Suffers 46
Defeats
BOSTON. June 20 (£»>—The buf-
feted Boston Red Sox. left at the
post in the American league were
without a pilot today- Manager
John "Shauno” Collins resigned aft-
er suffering 46 defeats against 11
victories this season.
The former White Sox star who
tasted the fruits of ascendency as a
member of pennant-winning Chica-
go teams in 1917 and 1919. wired
Pres- Bob Quinn from Cleveland
yesterday that he felt he could no
longer go on with a club that «o
often lost.
Marty McManus aggressive sec-
ond baseman was named as acting
manager until Quinn decides on a
permanent pilot.
Quinn said the news was a sur-
prise; that he had “no inkling” of
the feelings of jcollins. He said he
gave him "every opportunity to re-
consider.**
“I know 'Shauno* has been hav-
ing a hard time/’ said Quinn “but I
wonder how many people think I
have enjoyed myself lately.”
Collins the fifth manager to come
and go during the nine-year Quinn
regime was one of the few players
to emerge unsullied from the ’’Black
Sox” Scandal of 1919.
Crack Crews To

POUGHKEEPSIE N. Y. June 20
The biggest college naval
battle of the year due to break
out late today along a four-mile
stretch if old man river found the
intersectional rivalry sharply drawn
once more with Cornell and
Syracuse ancient rival* ready to
fire their varsity big shells against
the challenges of California and
Washington.
The non-combatant* as well as
those commanding the eight col-
legiate fleets on the Hudson were
pretty well agreed the winner of
the feature engagement would be
found among these four powerful
experienced boatload*.
Among other varsity entries in
the main battle Navy. Pennsyl-
vania Columbia and Massachu-
setts Tech in about that order
were conceded no more than an
outside chance to explode a sur-
prise torpedo among the favorites.

Draw in 15 Rounds
They did it again.
That is to say. Jack Doss. vet-
eran Raymond ville puncher and
"Youthful” Charles. Brownsville
negro welter drew again this time
over the 15 round route in the
Santa Cruz arena. Last Sunday
they fought a 10 round draw in
the same arena.
It was a slam bang exhibition
which kept the fans yipping
throughout They started relatively
slow but went to slugging in the
fifth. Doas scored two knockdowns
and Charles scored one for Re-
count. It was a good draw with
both fighters finishing In poor con-
dition.

A good sized crowd was on hand
for the bouts.
weight championship tomorrow
night.
Most experts expect the fight to
go the limit The betting remained
extremely light today with cham-
pion Max still favored at 6 to 5.
Schmeling wound up his training
at Kingston N. Y. with a five-
round workout against three spar-
ring partners yesterday and left a
crowd of 3.000 fully convinced he
is in top form for his title defense.
Sharkey In N. Y.
At Orangeburg N- Y. another
capacity crowd saw’ Sharkey box
; four easy rounds before breaking
camp and heading for New York-
The challenger weighed 203 pounds
after the workout and probably will
tip the beam at that poundage
heaviest of his career.
Schmeling has been down as low
as 188 pounds recently but prob-
ably will scale 190 or more for the
fight.
Advance calculations point to one
of the best heavyweight duels in re-
cent years.
Sharkey can gain nothing but
glory—and the title—under any cir-
cumstances for his share of the
gate receipts is only 10 per cent
hardly enough to cover his train-
ing expenses.
Sailor Jack will be facing a vastly
improved fighter tomorrow. Max
has learned fast in the last two
years. Maxie was an impressi ire
fighter a year ago when he stopped
Young Stribling in 15 rounds in his
first title defense. And he has ad-
vanced several strides since then.

ed home run double and two

RED ORPHANS
BEAT DALLAS
Beaumont Buffs Galveston
Other Victors In
Texas Loop
(By The Associated Press)
The Texas league pennant race
waa enlivened yesterday with a
brief spurt by the homeless San
Antonio Indians.
The tribe's headquarters at
League park burned Saturday
leaving the boys in the same sad
condition that drove the Shreve-
port club to Tyler. But with Long-
view occupied now by fugitives
from Wichita Pails there was
nothing much left for the Indians
but the choice between Arp and
Overton. They elected accordingly
to stay at home and piay at ti"&
Brackenridge high school park.
At that yesterday's triumph was
something along the order of a
high school ball game. The visiting
Dallas Steers stumbled into the
ninth trailing 4 to lo drove two
pitchers to the showers with five
runs then faded for a 10-8 loss as
Cy Smith came to the rescue.
With a split season vote draw-
ing nearer the Beaumont Export-
ers clung grimly to their three-
game lead over the league by tak-
ing Tyler 8 to 5 In ten Innings.
Fted Tauby hit a home with two
on base after Steengrafe of the
Sports had passed Easterling to
get to him.
The Houston Buffs keot the pace
by mauling Longview io to 1 be-
hind the neat pitching of Ralph
Judd.
At Galveston the Buccaneers got
away to a five-run lead in the
first for what eventually became
a 6-1 victory over Fort Worth.

WILL THE heavyweight cham-
pionship bout Tuesday night be
another epic of frustrated greatness
for Josef Cuckoshay? Our Mr.
8harkey freely admits his greatness
but has never been able to prove
It in the ring. Time after time he
has blown up after having an im-
portant victory in hand if you
fight fans would hear just how he
manages to lose another fight
tune in on the NBC chain at 8 p. m.
(C. S. T.) Tuesday. The cham-
pionship bout will be on both
WEAF-NBC and WJZ-NBC. So
throw a bit of axle grease on the
valves and antenna if you would
hear another of those great Shar-
key epics of frustrated greatness.

8HARKEY can beat any fighter
he believes he Can beat. But does
Mr. Cuckoshay believe he can beat
the champion? A great deal of
Sharkey's following was left behind
when a fat middleweight. Mickey
Walker by name gave him an im-
pudent slapping recently. The Black
Hun by the way won the cham-
pionship from the Amencan-Llfh
although Sharkey never possessed
the title. Sharkey was making a
great job of whipping Schmeling in
the early rounds. CAME THE
FOUL! It has been intimated
Sharkey deliberately hit Maxle
low when the German began warm-
ing up and boring In with effect.
All of which is lent credence by
the Schmeling-Stribling fight. Strib
gave Maxle a nifty pasting for four
rounds before the German got
going. But after the fourth it was
slaughter.

TIGHT FIGHT
IN NATIONAL
Small Blanket Would Cover
All of Them But
Tail Ender
BY HERBERT W. BARKER
(Associated Pres* Sports Writer!
Take a medium-sized blanket
put It over the National League
field and the only clubs that might
be left out in the cold would be the
first-place Chicago Cubs and the
last-place Cincinnati Reds.
Cold figures would put it this
way: the Boston Braves in second
place lead Pittsburgh’s Pirates by
one game with the Phillies Brook-
lyn St. Louis and New York in a
virtual tie for fourth place two
games behind the Pirates.
The Cubs idle yesterday never-
theless gained ground their lead
going to three and a half games
when the Braves succumbed to
Silas Johnson of the Reds 5 to 0.
Singles by Paul Waner and Pie
Traylor in the eighth drove in two
runs and gave the Pirates a 2-1
decision ver Brooklyn with Helnie
Meine chalking up a pitching vic-
tory over William Watson Clark.
The Cardinals trounced the Giants.
7-0 behind Tex Carleton's two-hit
pitching.
The New York Yankees stretched
their American League lead to
seven and a half games as John
Allen blanked Chicago on three
singles 1-0.
Philadelphia split even with St.
Louis winning the second game
6-3 after dropping the opener 3-2
In 10 innings. Jimmy Foxx clouted
his 26th homer in the second.
Cleveland went into third place
displacing Washington by tripping
Boston twice 9-3 and 6-3 while
Washington was dropping an 8-5
decision to Detroit.

keeping down communism and pro-
paganda which is tearing down the
respect and loyalty to the natton.
Mrs. Van Stewart state president
also made a talk.
Mrs. Louise Warrenkin. of the
state department of child welfare
which is supervised by the board
of control brought suggestions In
the work the Auxiliaries are doing
especially stressing the coopera-
tion which is necessary for sue-
cess. Most interesting to the women !
was the explanation of child adop-
tkm laws in Texas Mrs. Warrenkin
stated tha t“adcption of a child in
former days was similar to leasing
land but now a child may be
taken on probation before final
adoption.” In bringing a child from
one state to another for adoption
the former state must make a
bond which Is to be used for ex-
penses incurred if the child turns
out to be a criminal or requires
medical attention.
Mrs. Austin executive secretary
gave a splendid talk on the work
of the executive offices.
The auxiliaries of the various
districts are holding a membershio
