Lund explained he wished to get as much benefit from the off- season practices as possible and Bierman promptly put him to work developing his punting. Last fall Lund was called upon to step into the place made va- cant by My Ubl’s serious illness and performed in such a credita- ble manner that many predictions of his future as a Gopher were made.

New York, Jan. 12—(#)—The pow- ers that be in polo once more have decided that Tommy Hitchcock is the greatest of all polo players. For the 12th straight year Hitch- cock was given the highest possible handicap rating—10 goals—by the handicap committee of the U. 8. Polo association. Since Lewis Lacey, the Anglo-Argentine star, and the vet- eran Devereux Milburn, who has re- tired from big-time competition, were dropped from that level, Hitchcock [nd been the world’s only 10-goal yer.

A. President Predicts Game Will Snap Out of Doldrums in 1933 | By JAMES (BINGO) BROWN (President, National Boxing Associ- ation) Lansing, Mich., Jan. 12.—(%—The year 1933 may bring boxing back out of the doldrums if certain things hap- Pen. First of all, people who are pro- moting boxing matches, fighters as well as managers, must realize that the day of the high priced gate has gone and that prices must come down if the sport is going to prosper and hold its own. A common working man loves a boxing contest as well as the banker, the lawyer or the doctor, . - BIWARCK BATILER |CLASS A COMPETITION PROMISES TO BE TOUGH THIS YEAR By Ahern | DFVITS LAKE AND [Odds Even for Paul-Miller Battle SAYS BOXING NEEDS LOWER JAMESTOWN FVES PRICES, BETTER PROGRAMS !Favor For Feathe rweight Champ Disappears Arter Strenuous Workout | e but his earnings have been cut to| such an extent that he no longer can Pay the high prices demanded for tickets. The result is that attendance has fallen to a great degree. I feel that a championship boxing match should have the same price scale as a fine football contest or world’s championship baseball con- test. If match-makers are careful with their attractions, there is no rea. son why boxing shouldn’t have a good year, but the public demands good at- tractions. The public also still loves the hero- worship type of fighter and perhaps we will have the hero emerge out of the Schmeling-Baer contest that is to be promoted by thut great Amer- ican hero, Jack Dempsey. I feel that Dempsey has a fine attraction in the Schmeling-Baer contest and it will be crown. isa, Four class B outfits have exercised Tonage of good old John Public.

Yoder, chairman of the university committee in charge, announced Wednesday.

Paul wound up his drill for the battle Wednesday by boxing six rounds with southpaws while Miller used up the day by loafing around. Result: Betting odds shifted from 8 to 5 in the champ’s favor to even money. Many fans predicted that by ring time, the Cincinnati left-hand- er would be a slight favorite. The champion’s heavy drill two days before the fight convinced many that he wasn't in shape yet. Miller, however, seemed ready al- though he had a pound to knock off before making the featherweight limit. Basketball Problems | ° By NAT HOLMAN Star Player, Coach and Author of “Winning Basketball” Question—Would you correct or change the improper shooting form of a player even though his scoring average was good? Answer—That would depend al- most entirely on the time remaining to make the change. If we were five or six weeks away from our first game, I would probably think it ad- visable, but I would never undertake such a job once the season was un- way. Added to that, there is also the matter of his number of available playing seasons; there is more rea- son to make such corrections on a sophomore than there would be on a senior. However, granting that the neces- sary time and reasons for making the change are present, I believe that constant practice of proper shooting form will bring better results. scoring play man, No. 5. to No. 3, who The latter FUNERAL || HOME | Offers Convenience 208 Fifth St. Phone 687
