Then even a great defense will not save you from hitting the canvas. No amount of strength can prevent a sure knockout under these conditions. You cannot fight or stand off a fighter when you cannot breathe. So if you have any intention of hoxing for more than a round or two, or of getting into fine physical shape, make certain of your .wind. There are many ways of develop- ing the wind dhd testing its endur- ance without having to experiment in tne ring.

(In.tomorrow’s article Leonard will Sport Gossip A broad development ot the pres- ent Olympic training system now in vogue in Sweden is planned for the goming summer. During the past few years Coach Ernie Hijertberg has car- ried most of the work upoy his own shoulders, but as the popularity of track and field athletics increased it was seen that the task was rapidly outstripping the capacity of the orig- inal coaching staff. oe 8 Until recently Hjertberg has had sible for them to cover Sweden thor- oughly and give the Swedes the bene- fit of steady coaching all summer. Hjertberg was compelled to travel from plage to place with the result that many cities had to content them- selves with one or two weeks’ instruc- tion during the whole season, and sev: eral promising towns, for lack of time, were neglected altogether. In an-effort to remove this handicap the Swedish A. A. U. made plans to in- stall 10 coaches, with Hjertberg as instructor and supervisor of their work. eon oe These coaches, who were selected ‘by the S. iA. A. U., are all men who have had experience in athletics. Haw- ever, practical experience'in athletics was naturally not deemed sufficient was therefore decided that they should receive a special course of in- struction. This course covers all the branches. necessary for the making of a successful coach, and includes: Practical and theoretical coaching, hygiene, benefits of light gymnastic exercises, massage, how to lay out of same, and the organizing of clubs. ae) > This teaching of the men in the organizing of clubs and the general methods used for this purpose is done with the thought that these coaches, who are to serve as members of the belong, willbe in a position to advise and help in the formation of new clubs in their respective districts. When these men have completed thi course and are deemed competent) to his district, under the aupervinion of Hjertberg, koe oe What is reported to be the first fa- tality to occur.in the Australian prize ring under modern administration, took place during a recent ‘bout at Sydney. In the seventh round of a contest ‘between bantamweights one of the participants sank to the floor of the ring after receiving a short|, arm jab to the jaw. Whenhe did not recover from the ‘blow within a rea- sonable period the boxer was hur-| ried. to the hospital, where he died. Close followers of boxing at the ring- side were puzzled at the result of the blow, which apparently carried little force. ‘When an autopsy was per- formed it was discovered that the dead boxer had an abnormally thin skull, being of almost eggshell thin- ness in certain places. eee One of the best performances shown at the Far Eastern Olympic games held recently at Tokio, Japan, was a hundred yards trial heat in 10 seconds flat by G. Saavedra, a Filipino sprinter. Acording to'Americans who witnessed the event, Saavedra with proper training is capable of running the’ “hundred” in better than’ even time. “In build. he resembles Howard Drew,. with the exception that he is not quite as: heavy. * so Reports from all sections of the country indicate that unusually large crowds paid admission charges to va- rious sport contests and’ exhibitions on Memorial day.

I haye little faith in the complicate ma- chinery of the modern gymnasium. Today’s exercise is pivoting the body around from the hips. Stand with heels together and with toes turned out. Place the hands on the hips. Then. bending the body at the waist and with waist and with the legs straight swing the head around in as large a horizontal circle as pos- sible. Bend backwards as far as you can. This is magnificent’ work for the muscles of the abdomen. After going around in one direction for, say 20 times you probably will commence to feel dizzy. When this stage arrives put in the reverse clutch and do the stunt all over again in the opposite district organization in which they | direction.

HELP MITCHELL DRIVE GUBS NEAR TOP Fred Mitchell is depending a great deal on the help of two veterans to shelp. him boost the Cubs near the top in the American league. They are Jimmie Sheckar@, left flelder for the old Cubs in the days when Frank Chance’ won three pen- nants in a row, and the veteran catch- er, Jimmie Archer. Sheckard doesn’t play ball any ore but he makes a great right- hand man for Mitchell as a coach and scout. Archer will catch a few games this year, not many, as Mitchell relies mainly ‘on Art Wilson, and Rowdy Eliott. But Archer is a great coach for pitchers and can be used as an emergency catcher when needed. WOULD NEVER FINISH HIM Tommy. Issues Vitimatum When He Discovers His Sacrifice Is Alt Jin, Vain. Tommy dislikes to be washed, but he loves cookies. To obtain cookies he. has only to present -himself. at his neighbor's, Mrs, M——, and,though the scrubbing he has. to undergo is terri- ble, the cookies given as a reward.are. very much worth while. A few days ago. Tommy. became un- usually hungry, and finding nothing at home worth eating, he. hurried over to Mrs. M—. “I'm terribly hungry, wash me quick!” he exclaimed, and Mrs. M—— scrubbed and scoured until Tommy's face only emphasized his dirty hands. “Now give me some cookies,” Tommy requested impatiently, unable to wait for her to finish the opera- tions, The cookle supply. was exhausted, ‘| but she had nice bread and butter, she informed Tommy. Tommy seemed ready to burst into tears, He disliked brend and butter. Then a. bright idea struck him. “Show me,the jar,” he asked. Mrs. M—— displayed the empty. cookie jar and Tommy ran from the house in an effort to. stifle his tears. “You'll never finish washing me,” he screamed as he fied.- sr indlanapolte News.

By PAUL PURMAN, Southpaws are leading both leagues in the box and with thé willow. Rather. a curious thing, but the leading pitchers are Ruth and Mo- bridge in the American, with Covel- ebkie, a right-hander, sandwiched in, and Schupp in the National. In the batting list Speaker, Sisler, Cobb, McInnis, J. Smith, Rousch and Burns are’ way up on top. They all hit from the fork side of the pan. It is not, however, as mysterious as it looks. SOUTHPAWS LEAD AT BAT AND IN THE BOX: THERE'S REASON 7) Lett-ha handed batters, as. a. general rule,, are more dangerous against right-hand pitching: There. are. -far more ‘‘right-handed:'pitchers’ than’ southpaws;- and the left-handed, bats: men. have an advantage of hitting against more .right than_ left-handed pitching. © ‘As the southpaw pitchers are more effective: against left-handed batting, they hold down the batting averages of their fork-handed opponents and bolster up their pitching percentages at the expense of the weaker right- handed batters. |e aaa NEY APSE RRR aN MANDAN NEWS i Leave For St. Paul—Mesdames An- na Stark and Elizabeth Brown depart- ed yesterday morning for St. Paul. ses Harry Center Here—Harry Center, popular Barnes rancher, returned to his home yesterday afternoon, after having spent the day in the city, at- tending to business matters. «#8 At Cannon Ball—Attorney J.
