STRIBLING HAD HARD TIME FOR BOXING CAREER First Profe;siofial Battle Brought Him No Funds —Experience (& Jan. 31.—For nce the days of t of Kentucky, rugged Marvin who claimed the heavyweight championship of the fistic world the retirement of Jim Jef: in 1904 has the South 2 18-karat heavyweight con- tender. W. L. “Young” Stribling, the Dixie hope, who fights Jack Shar- key, February 27, at Miami Beach born and bred in Georgia, the heart of the deep south. More than eight years ago, Stribling, then a featherweight tledgling 16 years of age, fought his first professional fight in At- lanta. It came as a gift from his acrobatic dad who had taught him to box and guided him through successful gymnasium bouts. a" had promised his sonthat on his eenth birth he would be re- ded with his first real prize fight. The elder Stribling sought out the late Walk Miller, then a bud- ding fight promoter in Atlanta, and asked for a chance for his young son to do some boxing. Miller was reluctant. He wanted the youngster's record and looked askance on the few gymnasium skirmishes. “Pa” Stribling made the desper- ate suggestion that his son be placed on Miller’s next card for nothing. “Just his expenses from Macon to Atlanta and return—a few dollars,” Pa asked. “That will be all we'll expect.” The eagerness of the father made an impression on Miller and he ac- cepted the arrangement. The re- sult was that Stribling was match-, ed for a fourround bout with a rugged little newsie, Kid Domb. Stribling won. Again the boy offered tc fight without recompense. Miller made another arrangement whereby the youngster was matched with Tim O'Dowd. O'Dowd lasted for two minutes of the first round. Shows Cleverness Still Miller was not sold on the youngster and a third bout—with- out remuneration—was agreed to by the Striblings. This time W. L. was asked to defeat the rugged Kid Nappie, another Atlanta news- boy, who knew something about slugging. So clever was the Stribling defense and so deceptive his attack that he outpointed Nap- pie in four rounds. Successful in three matches with nothing to show for it in the way of finances, Stribling and his dad! | decided it was high time to de- | mand some pay. This time Miller proved less adamnant. The remuneration, however, was small in comparison to the nearly | $50,000 that the young Georgia: heavyweight will receive for his 10 rounds with Sharkey. in building up to this bout, W. L. has engaged in nearly 250 fights. His largest previous earning in a single bout was $27,500 which | his end of the purse in the Barlenbach championship match in' New York City in June, 1926. e —————— FOUR BIG TEN CENTERS INDIANA PREP PRODUCTS CHICAGO, Jan. 31.—Indiana high | school basketball gave fonr of the | Western conference centers to hat collegiate organization. “Stretch” Murphy was a center |Who could pump oil with one hand, at Marion high when it won the Pump air and fuel with the other state title three years ago.

They know that Luckies steady their nerves and do not impair their physical con- dition—many prominent athletes have testified to this fact. They discovered, too, that Luckies don’t irritate the throat—a fact subscribed to by 20,679 physicians. A reasonable proportion of sugar in the diet is recommended, but the ' authorities are overwhelming that too “It’s toasted | No Throat [rritation-No Cough. many fattening sweets are harmful and that too many such are eaten by the American people.
