Old Fitz, in fact, was barely a middleweight when he won the title from Corbett and never scaled more Corbett’s best fighting 182, Dempsey’ light h career, ng no trouble making 175, but he had built himself up to 190 at the time he retired. Jack Sharkey fights at not much more than 190. . . . It was Fitzsimmons who made famous the expression: “The bigger they are the ’arder they fall.” Dempsey always took delight in bowling over the big ones, includ- ing 235-pound Carl Morris, 248- pound Wiliara und 220-pound Lauis Firpo who now weighs around 275 Jlm weight was of his Speaking of college boxing, Uni- versity of New Hampshire has a pair of fighting brothers who are co-captains of the team that al- most upset Navy's perfect record of more than 50 straight victories in dual meets. The battling brothers are Jacques Grenier, and Jean Grenier, 160. They were sensations in their first appearance as freshmen in intramural compe- tition. ~Now Jacques is earning his second varsity letter and Jean his third. Both were football let- termen and Jean is a baseball pitcher. When New Hampshire, sister in- stitution of Dartmouth, lost to Haryard in football last season, Jacques, playing quarterback, was the only Wildcat ball-toter to do any consistent gaining. Brother Jean played at end. In the fistic session with the Navy, Jacques scored a technical knockout victory over Demetropo- lis and Jean won a decision from R. S. Andrews in four rounds. Poxing as a college sport, does not flourish so extensively in New England as it does in many other parts of the country. New Hamp- shire, Yale, Dartmouth and M. L T. are its principal exponents. Dartmouth has revived wrestling, too, but only as a recreation. The Green dropped the mat sport so far as intercollegiate competition is concerned after the 1920-21 sea- son. Andy (Swede) Oberlander, All-American fullback in 1925, who has just signed as ‘Wesleyan's new head coach, was the last man toj win a “D” in wrestling. At the time he was a freshman. ANCHORAGE FIVE DEFEATS SEWARD, NOW CHAMPIONS SEWARD, Alaska, March 6.— The Anchorage High School bas- kéw all team won the champion- hip of Southwestern Alaska by de- feating the Seward High School four out of six games.

Sports Writer) INDIANAPOLIS, March 6—Chuck Klein, mighty baseball walloper of the National league, believes he's the 'boy to shatter Babe Ruth's all-time record of 60 home runs,’ and that he might as well do it | this year. The local boy's 43 homers last; scason made him the National league champion and helped con- sidarably to awaken the lowly Phil. adelphia club. Looking back over Klein's recor it is apparent he has reason to b s lieve he can better his own mark and threaten the Babe's. Last year was his first in the majors. He ‘was going stronger at the end of the season than at the beginning Klein and the Philly management | !have been at odds over money. Re- ports have it that he wants $17,500 and the club wants to give him jconsiderably less than that. = His {pay in 1920 was $7,500. | “I am down to pl w—192 pounds,” said Chuc! away to a poor start |and the first five weeks I was aw- |ful.

Since that time it has stood a mute sentinel of the past, pointing | the way to the new and thriving | Agua Caliente layout, in the more | picturesque setting some miles up : the valley of your old “Aunt Jane” —better known as Tijuana valley. With the prospect of a number ! of big money events coming up; namely, the Agua Caliente derby| with its added values of $25,000 on March 2 and the Agua Caliente handicap of March 23 with it\r world’s richest stake, $100,000 add- | led; not to mention several other) large prizes, many horses are being brought across the border. The new stables were not ade- quate to handle the “Gold rush” and the Agua Caliente Jockey club | has undertaken the task of dis- mantling the old track and remov- |ing the old stalls to the new loca- | tion. | | | i - | BROTHER ACT S:/9W:S WAY | TO KENTUCKY CAGE FIVE | LEXINGTON, Ky, March 6.—A brother act that learned all its bas- ketball in college is pacing Ken- | tucky’s basketball quint, dark horsm in the Southern conference mlel tournament starting in Atlanta this month. !

STOCK CRASH HALTS JAPANESE PEARL DIVING TSU TSU, Japan, March 6.—Because shares tumbled on the New York Stock Ex- change and eliminated thou- sands of buyers from the luxury markets, producers of the culture pearl, Japan' unique gem, are redu their output by one-third. Kokichi Mikimoto, head of the leading company, closed two of his principal oyster grounds and discharged 130 of the picturesque little div- ing girls who bring the pearl oyster from their beds. The Mikimoto company hitherto has operated ten pearl oyster farms. Artificial stimuli are used to make the bivalves grow pearls. e 00000000 .. NORTH CAROLINA ADOPY STABILIZED GRID SY§ CHAPEL HILL, N. C., March 6.— The University of North Carolina is an advocate of the “stabilized coaching idea, says Dr. Foy Rober- son, alumni representative on the athletic council. He believes that although coaches are changed, the general system should be maintained. North Carolina, he says, is sold on the Rockne system, introduced by Chuck Collins. The council de- |cided to adopt the Notre Dame style when it hired Collins in 1926 because of the success of Rockne's | methods and because “Notre Dame alumni seemed to enter the coach- ing profession “TWIN BROTHERS 9000000000000 00000000000000 much more often| DUPED BY WIFE 2 YEARS, SIES CHICAGO, M:\N h 6.

Briggs. Their wives presented | them each with a divorce suit on the same day, the superior court records reveal. Valeria Margaret Briggs charged | Ward Ellsworth Briggs cruelty, spe- cifying that he had told her he no| longer loved her and then proved it | by leaving home. H Ruth J. Briggs alleged that | mer H. was sulky, that he had bad temper and that he wrongly accused her of associating with oth- er men. Valeria Margaret got an interloc- | utory deeree from Ward Ellsworth | in December, 1927, omr a cruelty charge, but a reconclliation pre- vented the decree from being nud' | final.
