LONDON, Julie 2 -tCP Cable)- Iltrruireds of Clrxutlioiis Dialed 9- kcy part in lust night's second de- \';‘.s'..\l1llg zreriul ride over the Ruhr in three days.

It. was learned officially that Cu-

Boys in Khaki. Navy blue and Air Force blue will throw mitts at each other this evening in a style that is expected to entertain a large crowd of boxing fans here. The bouts are being staged at the Sporting Club.

The boys from the services will be fighting for the honor of their respective units and they can throw a tremendous pile of energy into such an endeavour. Some of them have a fair share of boxing skill to go along with their ambit- ion, and all of them have the urge

to try.

Fifteen bouts are scheduled ac- cording to the latest information. The number originally had been placed at eighteen.

But there's plenty of action 1n fifteen bouts. Run off in snappy fashion, the way service events usually are, the bouts should pm- vide something really worth look-

g at.

The Air Force and the Army have staged bouts already and they put: on some really f.ne shows. They were not open to the public though newspapermen were in- vited to attend.

This time they're letting the public in on the §10W and they're askikng them to contribute to an admission price which will go dir- ectly to the Red Cross funds.

NEW YURK, June 2-01?)-

Brocklyb Dodgers went. on a ram-

page tcday to scuttle the Pirates 17-2 at Pittsburgh with a. ill-hit. barrage. Rookie hes Webber held me Buccaneers to five safeties.

It was the 10th straight setback

for the Pirates and their 16th in 1B games extending back to May 14 when they cruised into Brook- lyn as a challenger second-place club and dropped _|, dime-game series. Pete Reiser made live consecu- tive hits-a home run, three doubles and a single-but suffered a. slight injury to his left. ankle while sliding into the plate in the seventh inning and retire 1mm the contest without gettng o. chance at the modern major league record of six hits in suc- cession in one game.

Giant: Whip Cnbl

At Giicago. unlucky Hal Schn- xnacher found the percentages in h‘; favor and pitched New York Giants to a 5-1 victory over Chl- cazo Cubs.

The Giants made 9 hits, l2 of them off big Bill Lee before he was replaced by Vern Olsen 1n the seventh when New York sewed up the decsiion with n. three-run splurge.
