TS CARTOON 2 ; THEYRE BOTH MIDGETS, 50°0oc’ CARLSON, THE CoAcCH , 010 TE LosicAL Tie AND APPOINTED Tig, Co-CAPRRINS [ | If someone gave us Aladdin’s lamp or some other power suffi- cient to name the three biggest events that could happen in sports for 1932, along with ringside seats for the same, we would pick: 1. Jack Dempsey to beat Max Schmeling and regain the world’s heavyweight championship after an interval of six years. 2. The return of Bobby Jones to open championship golf conquest. 3. Paavo Nurmi to win the Olym- pic marathon at Los Angeles. At least two of tnese three “nat- urals” have a chance toi develop. Dempsey has definite plans for a come-back and Schmeling can make no better match artistically or fi- nancially, than with the former champion. It would be a distinct help ni relieving boxing’s depres- sion. Nurmi's program for his fourth . Olympiad contemplates a bid for | marathon honors and & new record | over the long route. No other run- ner of Paavo's class, except Joie Ray, has ever taken up marathon- ing in a serious way and if he is in condition the celebrated Finn should gallop away from everybody at Los Angeles. I have no reason whatever for figuring on a come-back by Bobby Joves mnor so far as I know has he intimated to his friends any de- sire to re-enter competition in 1932 or subsequently. Nevertheless, it's one of the things we would like to see before the Atlanta barrister gets oo seriously involved in busi- ness. Quits Playing For Keeps | | FINE It will be interesting to see. what Chick Meehan does with little Man- hattan college’s football team in 1932. | Chick says he took the job be- cause he is through with over-em-| phasis, wants to enjoy himself and | make the boys he coaches feel that it is just a game. ! It’s a swell theory, for winter dis-i cussion, but we wonder whether the | “old grads” of Manhattan, not to| overlook the boys themselves and the able Mr, Meehan, would not like M " e ey ' wWBW_A_u‘-ISAQo 1"‘LA»’P 4 —CO-CABTAING OF PiFisBURGR (to win a few games or as many as possible. The answer will come wheh it is shown whether Manhattan intends | to stay in its own small college class, content to hold its own, or whether it becomes ambitious to tackle the big ones. Meehan has always been asso- ciated with a winner. The habits of a coaching life-time are extrem- ely difficult tc discard, if indeed there is any satisfactory purpose in doing so. He may be spurred on to do big things again. Ames The death of “Snake” Ames in Chicago removes from the ranks another of the most famous old- time football Americans. Ames was fullback on the great Princeton team of 1889. It won the leastern championship and five play- ers, including Ames, were included in Walter Camp’s first All-America selections, published in a magazine conducted by Casper Whitney. Amos Alonzo Stagg, end, and “Pudge” Heffelfinger, guard, both 'of Yale, were also on Camp’s first jall-star galaxy. 1 ‘The quarterback was Edgar Allan| {Poe of Princeton, the second of| \six brothers who made athletic ‘history for Old Nassau. - AMERICAN LEGION Regular mecting of John Alford) Bradford Post Thursday night at 8 o'clock.
