Great Racing Seen At Covehead Yesterday As Z-day Meet Starts

Perfect racing weather, a " htning fast track and s crowd well In excess cf 1800 ncre in aflendance at the opening yesterday of the 5|; two-day meeting st the Covehead rgcing track and the fans were

"ll repaid for their attendance.

From the time Starter Dr. Ii‘. C. Dongsn sent the first field of home; on the way the fans always had something to enthuse over. such as blanket finishes, merry battles all the way down the stretch

the hollering of the crowd a couple

M time; the decision went against their way of thinking.

But however. it was a great day of racing. Finishes were always close as the trotters and pacers battled it out every part of the oval and with today's card, in- "cluding as it does the much 111k- ed off $1.000 free for all in addr- tion to three other great cards winding up the program, racing fans, and they alre plenty numer- "nus, will witness a. racing card the equal if not better than any seen ever the Island tracks this season. Once again Starter Dr. B‘. C. pougan turned in a magnificent ‘b, well on a par with the per- 1111111811085 he has been giving all season long. At times yesterday he did have difficulty duo to bad act- or; and drivers trying to beat the pole horse away but his usual warning had its effect and it \vas surprising to say the least how both horses and drivers steadied down the very next trip down. In the Junior Free For All Kavola, driven capably by Roy Bnrnet was the only upset, winner "of the day, heading the fi-old in ‘the first two heats and then fin- ally yielding to the favored, the Great G. in the final one.

For Anti-Aircraft, it will ‘be a chance to redeem himself for the beating h nessey's new import here during the Goodwill Races last. week.

However that is neither here nor there.

Than Was

(By Sid Peder)

YANKEE STADIUM, New York, Sept. 18-—(AP)—Joe Louis kept his promise tonight to "make a quick one" against Tami Maurlello, but he kept the promise so well prob- ably even he was sunprlsed at what a short night's work 1t was.

He caved the roof in on thc tubby Bronx barkeeper so com- pletely and so rajuclly with a fancy display of all his gaudy artillery, that he chalked up the second fastest knockout in heavyweight championship history.

It took him just 2 minutes and 9 seconds to beat the round man from uptown New York into a helpless hulk. And but for two right hand "crunchers" he missed by a shade a few seconds earlier, he might even have equalled his own world record-the 2:04 it tool: him to stiffen Max Schmeling in their return bout back in 1938 in this same ball yard.

Although he'd been saying right along in his training that it would be a short night's work, the bomb- er might have let it last u bit longer than it did. At 211 1-4 pounds—'1‘am1 scaled 198 l-Zla-Joe was heavier than ever before in his 12 year career in the ring. Tami

and Louis might have been m- cllned to feel him out for, say a round, anyway,

But Tami walked out as he'd been expected to, with his fists flailing. His-end the-first punch of the fight can ht Joe flush on thc mouth, an for a moment there was a possibility that the taproom tender might do the im- possible.

Joe_ staggered halfway across the Friilf- There is no doubt he was hurt by this right-hand ham- mer that tore into his face. He bounced into the ropes. He blink- ed. He came out slowly to meet the rushing challenge of the dark- haired clouterr who himself has a record of 51 knockouts in 7'1 pro- fessional starts.

He knew now he had to go to work, and right now. And that's exactly what he dl-d. While it last- ed it was fireworks all the way and thc unexpectedly solid tum- out of ringside customers and the faithful in the lower stands and

Joe Sleeps Before; Tami Afterwards

NEW YORK. Sept. 1s -(AP)— An hour before he entered the ring against. heavyweight champ- ion Joe Louis, challenger Tami Maurlello was singing and dan- cing in his dressing room to n song entitled “When you sock them you rock them." The music was supplied by two friends who play- ed mouth organs.

Maurlello raised such a racket that the handlers of Champion Joe, a few doors away, sent word

by a deputy boxln commissioner to “please be quet; Louis is sleeping."

ROUND ONE

‘There was a delay while Louis’ gloves were adjusted before they were called to the centre of the ring by Donovan.

Maurlello caught Louis with a smashing right and staggered Louis against the ropes. Joe came back with a right and floored Mauri-ello for a count of nine, A left hook_ was the punch that put Maurlello down. Joe charged 1n with right and left. A smashing right hand hurt Maurlello and he hung on. Louis drove a terrific right to the ribs. As Maurlello held on Louis dug both hands to the body. Louis caught Maurlello in a neutral corner and drove a barrage of punches that dropped the chalk-tiger for the full count in 2'09 of the first round.
