The Boston Braves extended

Wall, Spork
Win To Enter
Golf Finals
DETROIT, July 15-(M)-Mary
Agnes Wall of Menominee and
Shirley Spork of Detroit won their
way into the final of the Women's
State Golf Tournament here to-
day.
Their match tomorrow will give
the tournament the same two fin-
alists who battled it out in the 1947
tournament. Miss Wall, the de-
fending champion, won that 1947
match and is a slight favorite to
retain her title tomorrow.
To reach the finals, Miss Wall
today defeated Pat Devany of
Grosse Ile 4 and 2, while Miss
Spork had to go to the 19th hole
before she beat Mrs. Sam Byrd,
one up.
Mrs. Byrd won four of the last
five holes on the regulation round
to make the match all even at the
end of 18. Miss Spork got a par on
the 19th for her win.
Miss Wall had an easier time
defeating Miss Devany, whose put-
ter was off today.
Olympic Shell
Damaged on
Way to Games
ABOARD THE S.S. America,
July 15-(1P)-Extensive damage
to the University of California's
eight-oared shell was described as
"very serious" today by Coach Ky
Ebright of the Olympic Rowing
Squad.
It is feared that the Golden
Bear oarsmen will be forced to
miss several days of practice for
their first race, Aug. 5.
George Pocock, famous shell
builder, discovered four chewed
holes on both sides of the No. 2
and No. 7 positions, apparently
caused by jostling while the
shell was en route from the
Princeton, N.J., trials to the
S.S. America.
On their first day at sea, the
members of the United States
Olympics Squad received uniforms
and began light workouts on the
sports deck despite a strong wind.
CHICAGO, July 15--(')-
British Isles, a 4 - year - old
Irish-bred colt owned by Wil-
liam G. Helis of New Orleans,
showed a fondness for the
grass course by winning the
$23,300 Grassland Handicap at
Arlington Park today.

Middleweight Title Bout
Slated for September

NEW YORK, July 15 - (1p) -
Popular Tony Zale, a 34-year-old
fighting champion from the steel
mills of Gary, Ind., signed today
to defend his world middleweight
title in September against Marcel
Cerdan, the pride of France.
Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, and
Thursday, Sept. 23 are the best
guesses for the site and date of
this international contest that
shapes up as the most interest-
ing tidbit on the late summer
program.
Andy Niederreiter, promoter of
the Tournament of Champions,
Inc., closed final details for this
contest when Sam Pian and Art
Winch, Z aIle's co - managers,
agreed to terms. They settled on
40 per cent for their "Tiger," who
became one of the hottest draws
in the game when he flattened
Rocky Graziano at Newark in
June.
Cerdan, signed after he re-
versed an earlier loss and re-
gained his European crown from
Cyrille Delannoit at Brussels
Saturday, gets only 171 per
cent as the challenger's share.
This could be a good pay day ifI
the fight catches the public's
fancy.
If it is not Brooklyn, Nieder-
reiter is considering Roosevelt
Stadium, Jersey City or Comiskey
Park, Chicago. He says Irving
Kovin of Chicago has offered to
underwrite the expenses, acting as
co-promoter if the fight is staged
in that city.
The boxing mob expects Andy
and his "Seven Millionaires" to
settle on handy Ebbets Field,
despite their successful Zale-
Graziano promotion at Newark.
They had to go out of town with
that one for Graziano's New
i York license was revoked long
ago because he allegedly re-
fused to report a bribe offer.
Zale's three round knockout of
Graziano June 10 was an ex-
tremely popular victory. An un-
derdog in the betting, Tony out-
slugged the Rock in a furious bout
to recapture the title he had lost
in the steaming heat of the Chi-
cago Stadium in 1947.
For Cerdan, known as the
"Casablanca Clouter," this is the
realization of a life-long ambi-
tion. Despite a series of Ameri-
can victories, his quest for a
championship shot appeared
doomed as long as Graziano was
the boss man. Zale's thumping
triumph gave the Frenchman
his chance.
Although many think he is con-
siderably older than his an-
nounced age of 32, Cerdan made

a hit in his New York bouts Big Englewood Pro 1
against Georgie Abrams, Harold
Green and Lavern Roach. He had 6 Under Par: Four1
