DISCLAIMS MATCH WITH NATIVE SON Joe Woodman Says He Never Signed for Langford to Meet Kaufmann REMAINS HERE UNTIL JULY Moran Reduces to 126 Pounds and Gets Down to Regu lar Workout While the fans up In Frisco are try ing to figure out the possibilities of the match between Sam Langford and Al Faufmann that Louis Blot think* ho has corralled, Joe Woodman and Sam are having the time of their lives down here by taking a nice little vacation and occasionally talking with Manager McCarey about their local engagements during the month of June. Telegraphic advices from the north are to the ef fect that .Blot is waxing wroth because Woodman and Sam came to Los Angp les Instead of proceeding direct to Frisco and starting training for the scrap that Blot has scheduled for Jun» 18. He even Is getting more angry because Joe and Sam are tarrying here and refuse to answer his telegrams. According to Woodman, Blot and the others interested are going to a lot of unnecessary worry about the proposed match. Joe says there la no match on with Kaufmann that ne knows of, that he never has signed any articles and, further, that he does not propose to send Sammy to Frisco to fight until a/tor the big scrap of July 4. That ends it, as Joe Renerally says what he thinks and thinks before he says It, so that It always is final with him. Well, we do not care down here, as Sam is one of the best cards offered here in many months and McCarey can scrape up at least a pair of opponents for Sam before July 4. Sam is scheduled to whip the winner of the Ferguson-Burns engagement along about June 11 or 18, and after he has enjoyed his vacation h bit longer ho will get down to training for that fight. Sam is no fool, and his man ager hardly rates with the sucker game, so It looks like the pair would stick here until after the big fight. McCarey was first of the coast pro moters to realize the real value of Langford as a drawing card and has kept him pretty busy since, as well as putting many a nice shiny piece of silver into Sam's bank roll. Sam na turally feels a little more at home here than elsewhere, and nobody can blame him for preferring to fight here. CROWDS 6KB fiAX»r WORK One of the largest crowds that ever attended a weekday workout of a fighter In thl3 portion of the country watched the big Bostonlan, Sandy Fer guson, go through his paces yesterday at Doyle's Southslde club. Jack Doyle, astute business man, prevailed upon Sandy to postpone his afternoon workout until after the ball game, and as a result, fully 2000 fans, with quite a sprinkling of women, crowded into the "grand" stands about the open air ring to see Sandy perform. Sandy tickled them by winding up an hour's work with eight rounds of fighting—no boxing in these bouts taking on Arthur Collins for four ses sions and Young McLaln for a similar number. Sandy polished them off with ease and dispatch and showed the big crowd what sort of a punch ho has.

I This workout wound up a strenuous day for him, as he took an extended hike on the highway in the morning and played handball, worked with the pulleys and weights and went through various gymnasium exerciser before taking on his sparring partners. Sandy says his wind Is improving fast and does not bother him any more. That he will be able to go the full ton rounds at lightning pace if the full limit is required looks certain now, but ho pre dicts that he will win in half the limit. Jack Burns Is going along nicely down at Venice and la getting Into that good condition that he fools is neces sary for him to beat the, big Bostonlan. He is training for speed, as lio expects to use his speed and cleverness In holplng him to land some of his man killing punches. Burns will weigh be tween 190 and 195 pounds when he en ters the ring and will bo giving away fifteen to twenty-five pounds to Fergu son, who will not be lighter than 215 pounds. With both fighters keyed up to their beat fighting condition, it looks like a whirlwind fight between two ter rific sluggers who have made a rep with their punches. MORAN DOWN TO 128 TOCNDS Reports from the training quarters of Owen Moran at Venice are to the effect that the Britisher is working regularly now and that ho has re duced to 126 pound^, which assures him that he will bo able to make the required 124 pounds for his scrap with Fninkie Conley. Moran boxed six rounds yesterday as the windup to his dully routine. Conley is pegging away like a good fellow out at Doyle's camp and will bo in the best condition of his career when ha faces Moran, and he Trill ba just as confident of winning as he ever waa in his life. Frankle is no dreamer nnd believes In working himself into condition to make a hard fight, regard loss of what he thinks of the other fellow's chances. He wants to go Into the ring at about 122 pounds and still bo In perfect condition. His efforts thus far have been most piitisfactory to him and he is /getting aa hard aa a piece of steel, at the same time developing his punch and speed. He has a full staff of assist ants to help him and boxes with Wil lie Mack, Marty Kane nnd Kid Cleve land, every day. He did ten rounds with these boys yesterday for the edi fication of the large crowd that saw him work. Matchmaker Hancock yesterday matched Young Rivers and Martin Leahy for a ten-round preliminary to the Conley-Moran scrap. Thia pair will make 122 pounds at 3 o'clock, and they should put up a slashing battle all the way. Leahy won his last out by the knockout route, while Rivers has been winning regularly and show ing an awful punch In every trial. Manager Joe Conley will take Marty Kane to San Diego tomorrow night to finish his training there for the twenty-round scrap June 3 with Gene MrGovern. Kane had McGovern whipped easily in their last battle un til hebroke his right wrist, but even with this handicap he/ stayed to the end of the bout and made a great showing, despite that ho only had his left hand In commission.

KINGAID IN NATIONAL WINS 100-MILE RAGE Drivers Narrowly Escape Death in Accident at Opening of Indianapolis Track INDIANAPOLIS, May 27.—Records went down before the onslaughts of desperately driven cars in today's races at the Speedway, and the new course, the only brick track in the world, justi fied all hopes of its constructors. The greatest victory of the day was the 100-mlie race for cars of 301 to 450 cubic Inches piston displacement, won by Klncaid in a National in 1:23:43. The previous record set by Chevrolet in a Bulck, at Atlanta, was 1:24:08. 11l fortune took this race away from Daw son, driving a Marmon. He led the field from the tenth to the eighty-flftti mile, and lost the lead by the fouling of a spark plug. Klncaid, pounding down the home stretch, barely escaped crashing into the press stand when one of his rear tires ripped off and was hurled high in the air. By sheer strength and nerve he held his car to the track. In the five-mile race for cars of the same class as for the 100-mlle event, Klncaid broke another record. His time was 4:05, bettering the former record by 40 seconds. HAKHOUN BREAKS RECORD Harroun had his inning in the ten mile event for cars of 231 to 300 inches, winning in 8:16, smashing the former record of 9:03. Chevrolet, driving a Buick in the five mile race for cars of 161 to 230 inches, won with a brilliant dash in 4:41, break ing the previous time of 6:13. All the Buick and Jackson entries were withdrawn because the technical committee had barred several cars, but the Bulck owners consented to re-enter those of their cars that met the Ameri can Automobile association rules. Good luck averted any serious acci dent today. The steering gear of Bar ney Oldfleld's Knox broke as he was trying out his motor before his first event was called, and he-ran to the high edge of the bank, but stopped safely. The accident put him out of today's races. Fox, driving a Pope-Hartford, also had a narrow escape, when the steering gear of his car broke and the car shot into the inner ditch. The feature of tomorrow's card will be the 200-mile race, which was called off last year because of death-dealing accidents. Today's summary: TIIK SUMMARIES Ten miles—Harroun (Harmon), won; Daw aon (Marmon), second; Fox (Pope-Hartford), third. Time, 8:16.8.

The Silver Grays will be killed off and their bodies will enter the Dyas-Cline garments, while their former regalia will become the habll aments of the newly organized Los An geles Locals, formerly the Dyas-CHnes.

The only way to find out what has really happened Is to attend the game. Scotty expects a good sized crowd who are seeking an explanation of the Interchange.

Start ing 27 months ago with a capital of only $1250, it is now able to show ac cumulated assets of nearly 500 times this original sum, to be exact, $620, -937.26 Is the total to the same. There has not been a quarter in its history when it has not paid a good dividend. "HOME BUILDERS" last statement, which shows a surplus and undivided profits of over $155,000, feels compelled to advance its stock from $1.85 to $1.90, and which it will do at the close of May. Its present dividends of 16 per cent on par means an earning of about 9 per cent on the price of its stock at $1.85, and the investor who buys these shares now before they advance to $1.90, next Tuesday, will have saved $5 on each hundred shares he buys. With his future dividends, which are bound to advance with each quarter, he will not only be ahead the profit from enhanced value of its shares, but the extra dividends will materially in crease the percentage above the pres ent a per cent, earnings on the present $1.85 purchase price. There is no risk in buying "HOME BUILDERS" stock, because through its general agency, ground floor Mason Opera House Bldg., 129 South Broad way, they arrange for the resale of your shares should you become sud denly in need of money and wish to dispose of your stock.
