GET FUN OUT OF YOUR TRAINING: THAT'S BIG SECRET, SAYS GIBBONS Some of Tommy Gibbons’ outdoo= training stunts. Below a. cross country. run with. his’ pointer; above, shinning up a tree, By Paul Purman. There is a wide difference of opinion among managers ‘and trainets of box- ers as to how they ‘should. train for a bout. | Back in the old days when John L. Sullivan, Paddy Ryanand men of the beef trust variety: depended almost entirely upon brute strength .to win the training, was confined for the most bart to exercises with heavy weights and a litle road work to’keep up wind. It was: Jim Corbett, if reports are to be believed, who invented shadow boxing, which singe has been consid- ered one of the big aids to’ fast foot- work ‘and agility in the ring. In a recent statement Corbett con- tended that the average present day ‘boxer does ‘not train hard enough for an. important fight. The old-timer, he contended, started training: several months before an important bout. There was one thing Corbett over- looked. The boxer of today and the fighter of two decades ago are two very different types of men. »| EARLY UNUSUAL PERFORMANCE OF LEADING: CLUBS’ IS NOT AN : INDICATION ‘New York; Muay 13.—If the records of past seasons can be accepted as a criterion, the unusual performances of-the leading clubs. in the major league -pernant races to-date do not necessarily: indicate a‘ runaway. win. ning of the ‘National “and American Jeague championships this year, While it is ‘true that the New: York ‘Nation- ot.| als. and the Boston Americans set a most remarkable pace during the first two weeks of the esason there is noth- ing in the history of elther jeague to substantiate the -bellef that these two Aeams, will’ continue their extra-ordin- ary percentage of victories and thus lich’ the pennants “long ‘before/ the schediles are:completed: Several unusual factors enter: into the situation this season one of which -| ts the fact that the major league play ed jater, than has been customary :{feat amd 5 B-1. mento 4.

Some of them may drink a glass of beer or ale oc- casionally with a meal, but they do. not smoke cigarets, indulge in spirits or champagne or follow the paths of the older clan. A few days ago I talked with Tom- my. Gibbons, mentioning to him Cor- bett’s statement. “Why should I train for weeks or months for'a fight?” Gibbons asked. “I’m Yalways in condition ‘to.,go. 10 rounds with any middle-weight_and:a ‘week : of york puts. me i ney eae for OF PENNANT FORM with the approach of warm weather, | ¢ increasing practice ‘and competition.
