CAMP DAVIS NINE NOSES OUT BOTTLERS, l-o ■ - A A A A A_ X _ Sports Hodge-Podge BY CARLE HODGE Outstanding need of sports-seeking service men in and around Wilmington, Lt. Henry A. Johnson told the Second and Orange USO Sports Committee last night, are facilities for individual participation. They want the chance to play tennis or shoot a game of golf or to take in a baseball game. As athletics officer at Camp Davis, Lt. Johnson is in a position to know just what the soldiers want. Well, the sports committeemen scratched their respective heads and went to work on tackling their first problem. It willl, however, take more than a good committee or a single organization to solve that problem. Wilmington as a whole must do that. Golfers, tennis players, fishermen and all other local sportsmen could add to their own pleasure by taking along a service man-guest. As soon as the new USO committee’s organization is complete, some type of system may be worked out through which the civilian and soldier or sailor sportsmen may be come acquainted. While on the subjects of Davis and athletics, Lt. John son is at work on an outstanding grid slate for the fightin’ AA’s, which he hopes will make up for the fact that local fans won’t be able to drive long distances to see football games this coming fall. Besides some good out-of-town contests,.the post eleven will definitely play Camp Lee and several North State con ference teams here. The lieutenant has his fingers crossed on the Sunday Admission fights because the larger crowds would mean better opposition for his gridmen. Sports Carbon: Sports Editor Scoop Latimer of the Greenville (S. C.) News says conditions may, force him to quit hog raising. Last year, the gentleman rancher points out, customers wanted a can of beans with each pig from Scooperoo ranch . . . Now they’re demanding a ration card to sugar-cure the hams. Sammy Manacher, who used to wrestle when mat shows were held out at Legion Stadium, dropped by the Star-News office to say “hello” the other day . . . He’s now in the OCS at Camp Davis—as is Promoter Bert Cau sey’s brother George. And speaking of wrestling, those who’ve seen ugly man Cowboy Luttrell’s draft registration card can hardly believe their eyes. It reads: “Clarence Preston Luttrell.” Massey Will Referee Matches Here Friday Promoter Causey Says Card Will Be One Of Best Yet Offered Here A1 Massey, a prominent figure in the boxing realm, will again appear as referee for the wrestling matches to be presented on the card at Thalian Hall Friday night by Bert Causey, promoter. A native of Princeton and Smithfield, Massey made his initial appearance here as a substitute for Chief Little Beaver in a boxing match against Tiny Taylor. He made a hit by stopping Taylor in three rounds. Later, he refereed here and proved himself a master in the official role of third man in the ring. Causey, however, expects him to have his hands full Friday night. The first match will be between #>ugli and rowdy Roly Poly Bibber McCoy, the Boston Mick, and the Black Panther. McCoy, who is al ways jolly and a jokster outside We Carry Excellent Quality FISHING TACKLE Reasonable Prices. Reel Repairing. SNEEDEN CYCLE CO. _U4 Market St. the ring, is all business in the squared circle and his principal objective in the bout here will be to unmask the Panther, whose identity is not known. The Panther never unmasks unless he is beaten two out of three falls in a match. Cowboy Luttrell, of Fort Worth, will meet Chief Saunooka, 303 pound Cherokee Indian, in the second match of the evening, and according to the promoter this should also be a rough and tumble affair, with plenty of speed and action. This match will be for the best two out of three falls with a 90 minute time limit. Doors at Thalian hall will open at 7:15 o’clock with the first event going on at 8:40 o’clock. -V Jimmy Foxx Reports As New Chicago Cub CHICAGO, June 3—MP)— Jimmy Foxx, late of the Boston Red Sox, reported to his new team, the Chicago Cubs, today and was fit ted for a uniform just before the Cubs game with the New York Giants.

POWELL GOLDSBORO. June 3—Stabbing two desperate Goldsboro last*ditch rallies, Wilmington’s Shipyard Pro gressive baseball club scored a thrilling 6 to 5 triumph over the Goldsboro All-Stars here this after noon. Trailing going into the eighth round, by two markers, the Cape Fear league leaders came to life and pushed two across to get back into the ball game. Hits by Jor dan, McCord, and Davis put the Wilmington club out in front in the tenth chapter after a fast twin killing had sunk a base loaded Goldsboro threat in the ninth stanza. The hard playing All-Stars rose up again in the tenth and placed three on the sacks, but once again they were stopped short of victory. With three valuable hits out of five attempts, McCord showed the visitors the way with the stick and Marvin Sansome and Souutherland were the batting stars for the locals, getting six blows between them. Southerland accounted for three of the losers runs. Deserving much credit also is slender Claude King, former high school hurler who held the slugging shipbuilders in check after a bad start until the game winning eighth.

The big supply bill from which the CCC funds were stricken would finance for the new fiscal year ac tivities of a score of agencies such as the Wage-Hour Administration, the' National Labor Relations Board, (he National Youth Admin isrtat.ion and the Social Security Board. The committee trimmed Presi dent Roosevelt’s request for money for some of the agencies and directed sharp criticism at tne NLRB and the Wage-Hour Admin istration for not following recom mendations of Congress last year in some of their activities. Approprialions for grants-in-aid and other mandatory items ac counted for more than two-thirds of the total appropriation, the largest Item being $329,000,000 for old-age assistance. -V Mussolini Believed I On The Libyan Front LONDON, June 3.—UPI—'The Brit ish broadcasting corporation in a broadcast to Africa today quoted its own correspondent, Richard Dimbleby, as reporting from Lib ya that Premier Mussolini may toe on the African front.

BOSTON BRAVES BOW CARDS, 4-3 Johnny Sain Stops Bird Rallies As Tribe Scores Early To Win Game ST.

Oscar C. Warner, Training Center Exe cutive, to comply with the Presi dent’s request for a 40-mile speed limit. Col. Warner pointed out that some members of Camp Davis have been habitually exceeding this speed limit. He stated that the camp rationing officer has made arrangements to secure a record of offenders which will be consid ered when speeders make applica tion for tires, recaps, and tubes. The road mentioned on which the limit is being exceeded is that between Wilmington and Camp Davis. Col. Warner’s action is in ac cordance with War Department policy as outlined recently in a letter from Secretary Stimson to the governor of Alabama. The governor referred to diffi culties incurred in enforcing his state’s 40-mile speed limit caused by Army officers driving private cars who claimed excessive speeds were called fbr by times set in their orders. Mr. Stimson replied that local speed limits must be observed by all Army personnel dirving private or official vehicles. Orders to that effect have been issued by all com mands. The limit has been set because of the necessity for conserving rub ber and gasoline. 3 ;The Baseball Standings A YESTERDAY'S RESULTS National League Chicago 6; New Yorx 2. Boston 4; St. Louis 3.

YANKS SWAMP CH1S0X, 4 TO 1 Bonham Stretches His Win Streak As N. Y. Coasts To Win Over Whitelegs NEW YORK, June 33.—(J>)—Ernie (Tiny) Bonham, leading candidate for pitcher of the year honors, stretched his winning streak to eight games today as the world champion Yankees coasted to a 4 to 1 triumph over the Chicago White Sox, in the opening engage ment of a home stand against the Western clubs of the American league. For the Sox it was almost a moral victory, because they made more hits off the big righthander than any other club this season, maneuvered a couple of bases on balls and escaped a shutout by George Kuhel’s sixth inning homer into the right field stands. Previously Bonham had pitched four shutouts in seven starts, had allowed only five bases on balls, and had given no more than seven hits in one game. Today Chicago made eight.
