P By ALAN J, GOULD (Associated Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Sept. It's a habit among the “wise ones” of the ring to string with the fight- who has the heftier punch It's the wallop that wins, as a rule, and it's the “sock” that appeals nowadays - to the crowd, whether jt is delivered with fist, a tennis racquet, golf clun, baseball bat or pelo mallet, Look over this list of “heavy hitters” and you will realize w they are at or near the top, ing the bulk of popular interest and figuring in the main melees of 1927: ' Helen Willig, the hardest hitter among all women tennis st “Big BIill” Tilden of the nonball” service and “Little Bi Johnston of the booming fore hand drive. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig, tw.n battering-rams of the diamond, the mightiest hitting combination th- game has ever known. Deverecux Milburn and Tommy Hiteheock, polo’s heaviest hitters, the top-ranking players at the game. Jagk Dempsey, aiming at a heavy weight come-back with fists " that pack much of their old dyua- mite. Molla Bjurst>dt Mallory, tha present national tennis champion won the title seven times on she power alone * until Helen W came along to dethrone her in 1923, The California girl had de- veloped even greater power of stroke than Mrs. Malilory, Mi:s Willg’ come-back this year, after a period of illness, has heen markea by the most sensational stroking uach” any woman tennis player has ever shown. Similarly, Tilden and Johnstor, although they have passed the peaks of their greatness, ruled in- ternational heights chiefly on the tremendous power in their gamos. Both are versatile, but in a pinch it has been Tilden's booming serv- ice and streaking backhand shots ‘or Johnston's blazing fore-handers that have proved the main weaj- ‘ons. * The lively ball has put a pra mium on the wallop in baseball. The crowd prefers the home run to the “squeeze play” or “insic stuff.” Ruth’s tremendous hitting opened up a new in which the resounding K of the circuit blow now echous tfrom one end of the baseball fron® the othe Gehrig has co along this to give the Bale spectacu race for long-range honors, a of titans that furnishing greater inter than the chases. On the polo field, Milburn ard Hitchcock are the twin longhit ting aces upon whose prowess An erica is banking heavily for the| International Cup matches with | Britain In September, t6-year-old veteran, is the hard est hitter this thrilling game has ever known. His long, loopine wallops at the willow - ball have jturned the tide of many a gams Hitcheock, younger, and a brilliant forward, isn’t far behind the “old master”*at getting range to his shots, Jack Sharkey probably will t tify that Dempsey still packs mighty wallop with either fist regardless of how much speed or finess the veteran Manassa Mau- ler may lack. The con ack the heaviest hitter the modern ring has known iz omne of the high spots of the year, The former heavyweight champion may not turn the tables on Gene Tunney, who beat him so badly last Sep tember, but his wallop will be dan- gerous as long as he is upright and charging in. .- NOTICE CALL FOR BIDS Bids will be received at the office of the Superintendent of| Schools up to 12 o'clock noon Friday September 9th for the transportation to and from the Juneau Public Schools of the school children living along the Glacier Highway.
