THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE THURSDAY, FEB. 9, 1928. BY JOVE - I'M GLAD '™ HERE MR-JIGGS J & By (,EORCL MchANl OF COURSE LIVE MUCH N ENGLAND‘J"‘— 19T NECESDSARY THAT YOU SHOULD LIVE?| 1 CAN CHEAPER W G " VETERANS STILL HOLD THEIR OWN 5 IN MANY SPORTS, CLEVELAND, Feb. 9—This may be the day of youth in so far as sportive competition is concerned, but scattered hera and there along the right of way are several an campaigners who are still clinging gallantly to the exacting pace. In billiards, Willie Hoppe must| be reckoned with the game’s top- most exponents. Hoppe at 42 obviously is slipping and conve- quently doesn’t command quits the respect he knew in other da. but the one-time “boy wonder” is! still good enough to rank pretly close to Schaefer and Cochran, the outstanding 18.2. pastimers. Moreover, Hoppe of late has tered the difficult flll‘(‘f‘(uvhh)ll game ' is now capable of hold- ing 1 own with most of the leaders. In boxing, Jack Britton, formor welterweight monarch, has been staging a fairly successful coma- back during the last few months. Jack entered the professional ring in 1904, ere some of the present leading pugilists were out of their swaddling clothes, and except for a brief period has been appearing regularly ever since. Britton at 42 is the oldest ac- tive ringster in the racket today. He's one of the few to win back a championship after once losing it. Jack never has been knocked out, another record only a sma'l number can claim. In baseball, there's old Jack Quinn. Old Jack has been in the majors off and on since 1900 Quinn is 41. But he's still pretty good at fooling batters with his varied assortment of stuff. He had one of his best years with the Athletics last season. Quinn was twice turned back to the minors and over one stretch was out of fast time six campaigns. In bowling, Jimmy Smith, gen- erally recognized as the king of: them all, has been mowing down, the pins almost day and night for| the last 27 years. Smith is 45, but he still makes a tour of the| country each year meeting the; leading maple maulers at every stop-over. Smith always is in} shape and has hardly known a; on the alleys. ! In wrestling, we find Stanislaus | Zbyzsko still rated with the big- timers despite the fact he's passed hig fiftieth milestone. Less than three years agd Zibby held the! world’s championship, tossing Wayne Munn a few months after the young Nebraska giant htd" caused more or less of a “sensa- |ling ‘team p In the Matter of the Estate of! sick day during his long regim2 “, By i tion by hurling Strangler Lewis out of a Kansas City ring.

AT THE FACE-OFF CHICAGO, Feb. 9—There is al- ways a touch of drama when United States teams oppose*Can- adian in the national Hockey League games. Just before the face-off, the band plays “The Maple Leaf Forever,” the Cana- dian anthem, followed by “The Star Spangled Banner.” The players on the ice come to at- tention. where they are and tie spectators stand uncovered.

By virtue of their excellent playing in the last game, the io- cal boys are conceded an edge in the fracas between themselves and the Island boys. Douglas put up a 'good fight last week but tho locals were too good for them, and figuring even improvement of both teams, Juneau has a good edge.
