In the Lake Shore loop.

Dun- liirk can sew things up by winning at Jamestown. In the Western, undefeated Sherman is expected to put on the clincher a1 Chautauqua and in the Eastern, South Dayton can be assured of nothing wonie than a tic if they can pass critical lest here i Dunkirk Industrial. And the South Dayton club's title will then probably rest in defeating cellar- bound Cherry Creek at home next week. But two of these critical Cannes, i at and I Dtyton at i be no stunning upsets i ttie leaders should get knocked off. The host clubs, although down the ladders in the standings, ure plenty tough, particularly on their home courts when the chips arc down.

Silver Creek is the club with consequent home floor advantage. They could pull a last desperate bid to knock off Falconer. They could pull even with the Falcons by doing so, but to bent them out for the county A crown would have to beat Dunkirk whiic Falconer was losing at "iVesUield next week. Westfield, tied with Jamestown in the Lake Shore's runner-up spot, will be 'hcnvily favored ut Frcdonia, where the winless Hillbillies' luck seems to have run out, The Orange, like the Brooklyn Dodgers, to have adopted the cry of "Wait'll next year."

Phone 405 BY CUDDY New York (UP)--Beau Jack, lop Kate attraction in Madison Square Garden history, was slated for the most importani test of his career tonight in a.lO-round bout with speedy young Tony Janiro.

The bout was expected to repeal whether the once-great Negro fighter from Augusta, is "washed up" at 25, or he may campaign ns successfully in the welterweight division as he did in the lightweight class in which he formerly was champion. Although favored'al 2-1 because of his aggressiveness and head- punching fury, Beau nevertheless regarded by many experts as a big question murk, as he faced 20-year-old Janiro from Youngstown, O. He was a question mark for several reasons. Since he came out of the army' .18 months ago, with the additional poundage that, lirteU him frnm the .135 to the 147-poiijicl class, he did not light ns wcJI ns previously. In two bouts with Johnny Greco, for example, he no longer looked like the "brown windmill" that had through the lightweight division.

Greco held him to a draw in their first engagement. Beau's tuck Bad Last Oct. 22, Beau, fought a practically unknown Negro named Buster Tyler at Elizabeth, N. and Beau lost the decision. That was his last ring appearance.

More hard luck came to Beau on Nov. 13. While training for Willie Joyce at Chicago, he fractured his left kneecap. This injury and its resultant operation kept him inactive until he -training five weeks ago. He looked good in the gymnasium; but it's uncertain whether his kneecap can weather 10 rounds at the blistering pace Janiro will set.

i Beau was favored at 2-1 because of his past proficiency as a head-buster, and because young Janiro showed a tendency to flounder under head punishment in three bouts with Greco, two of which Greco won. Janiro expected to have a slight weight advantage, scaling about 146'to Beau's 144 pounds. Whether Beau wins and moves on toward a welter title shot with champion Hay (Sugar) Hobinson, or whether he loses and drifts back mediocrity, he will long be remembered as the ex-shoeshine boy. who drew $1,393,704 in 18 Garden main events--a gate figure never approached by any other Garden fighter, including Joe Louis. That figure should be swelled to nearly $1,500,000 tonight.

The winner will be matched with young Charley Fusari of Irvingtpn, N. who upset veteran Tippy Larkin at the Garden last Friday. The bout will be staged March 21 or April 4. Out of that encounter may come the challenger for Robinson. For his size, strength, and fat supply, a bear-is the lightest eater of all creation.

It was the second tinie in as many nights that the Bruins had been shut out, the Rangers having pulled the same triek by a 6 to 0 margin at New York on Wednesday.
