Friday, June 8, 1934 is i outs! BY SAM CARR We were talking to some of the boys ft m Madble the chher day. They slid tity were going off to play a ball game and promised to let us know how it came out on their way back. Wo haven't seen them since and naturally presume the game was rainEd out. Anyway we assured their, this department was very much iiitere.ted and desires to carry all results of the league. We aim to get up at least one full page of sports every week, and would appreciate cooperation from anyone interested in any kind of sport. If the lellows over at Marble are going to play this week, we hope they shoot up the inf rmation, and of course, it would please us to see them on the bug end of the score. If we aren't mistaken, there's a game to be played at Marble Saturday afternoon. Such being the case, the Scout is going to pull out Ais Sunday feathers and be there to give a good war whoop if nothing else. ; Rcy Cooke, the young man who "dogs" some of the printing machines up here, has just informed us that the local club will tangle up with Andrews around some place about Saturday. We can't attend botdi games, so if a man will give us a full report of both games sometime over the week end will be much obliged. ' THIS IS SPEED This department once had the pleasure of attending the speedway races it Indianapolis, and could wll be in sympathy with the boys who withstood trie 300 mile grind last Wednesday. Majlte in this day and time a speed of 104.863 miles per hour daren't necessarily distrub cur imagin-1 ation. But when one watches the; silver, ren ana Diue cars strc-aKing | around the brick, sun-baked track I hour after hour, mile after mile, until | the final lap is completed, one realiz- i es it i.- a Uar and strain on the driver I to fight the giime and grease and j elements that confront him on the drive.

To maintain an average like that for 500 mils with dangerous curves, blow-outs continually staring the drivefr in the face, is almost more than we can conceive. t There is some $43,325 in prize ' money going out to the first and secon placers. But it hasn't been given out as yet because Leon Duray, of Los Angles, Calif., owner of the car piloted by Mauri Rose, winner of second place, has protested on the giounds that Cummings violated the rules by gaining a few laps when yellow caution flags were displayed, warning drivers to slow down while cars wiecked were cleared from the tracks. SPORT OF KINGS No wonder they call it the sport of kings?this lj?rse race business. It is not so fast as the Indianapolis clasic by no means, but a whole lot mo.e colorful. Maybe it's just the idea that there's flerfi and blood straining to win rather than a mere piece o? mechanism, that makes horseracing get in a man's blood. But once you've seen the bang-tails hotfooting it around the track, you'll never forget it. All this is brought to mind by the fact t.hat CavaVcade, the outstanding 3-year-old of the season, for the first time since 1889, has been the only horse to win both the Kentucky and Ameiican Derbies. Carrying a load of 126 pounds, the beast romped home well in hand, far ahead of the rest of the field. And many dopesters took it on t.he chin. nun ADVJU I L?A rRLLM Causing most of the sweat on the fan's biows at the present, though, is the coming battle between Max Baer and Primo Camera. Right now Primo is the favorite at 3 to 5. This depaitment believes Camera will win, not because the odds are for him, but because we feel he is t?he best man. Years ago Primo took huge iron bars and bent them over his haity chest. He is big and tough. His mental capacity runs low. When he gets in the ring and sees blood, he forgets his science of boxing, and wades in, a brute of strength, to hold, beat, strangle, win anyway he can. He doesn't mean to do that; he LER'S f LS FOR Y& MONDAY Only j t Chambray 1 A 1 LAL?yard .... * vC g| iOcto $2.50 | iSSES (Co 1Q I $4.95 ? jj $2.30 WHITE KID OXFORDS AND PUMPS SPECIAL $1.95 ] White Linen Oxfords j And Pumps .. $1.69 1 es?Regular Qg_ 1 Special ^OC j s ... 3 for 5c 1 GANOY 19c | i?All Silk A<\- I ular 79c I Ms I Murphy, N.

He will as far as the fighting is conceded, but he'll probably loose the dicision on a foul. In every fight he becomes raving mad. He grabs the back of his opponent head with one big hand, and pummels their face with the other. New York and the Garden i ate tired of that. The minute Primo I starts those tactics, they will dis-! qualify him. Baer is a good fighter. As Jack De-mpsey said in a syndicated article J the other day, .Max is fast, smart, and any loose living since he knocked out' Schmeling, could be trained out of h:s young body in very little time. Dempsev may be rignt, but he can be wrong, and we think he has overestimated his young portage's ability too much. It will only take one, and Max will go out like Sharky did. Max may keep away for a long time, but he will have | to throw everything into a good many I blows before the steel-bodied Preem goes down. But, as we said before, we look for Max to win about the fourth round on a technical KO. LEAGUE STANDINGS In t.he middle of the week we find New York and St. Louis still holding slight margins in the American and National Leagues respectively. Char lotte is out way ahead of Asheville, in the Piedmont, and Atlanta is down to third place in the Southern. IT'S OUR IDEA By the way, we better explain wheie we got the name for this column. As a shirt-tail kid t.'ie writer lemembers his first venture a^~ an athlete. It was a little baseball game calld "in and outs". You staited playing in the field some place and worked your way up to catcher, then pitcher, then you got to bat. If you were lucky enough to catch a fly you could bat. And when you got t > bat if you hit you could bat some more, but if you got put out, you just lowered your head and lit out for the pasture, and no one knew when you'd ever come to bat again. But it was a line game, and as a kid we erfjoyed playing it, just as we're going to enjoy writing t.his column. Maybe the name of the column isn't so good. Maybe you don't like it. Well, if you don't, just come ahead with a better one, and if we like it, we'll use it. Just send your suggestions to Sam Carr, care of The Scout, Murphy.

Putting off a reform means never to do it. Many put on style by putting off creditors. The key-note to good manners is "B-natural". "War's hellishness is always labelled "self defense." Babies and chidren are living longer; adults are not. Keep your promises if you wculd keep your friends. IS ILL IN DURHAM BURKE GRAY, JR. Mayor and Mrs. J. B.
