They met by accident outside a hotel, both aiming to take a limber- ing walk. Steve recognized Tommy oke. The veteran invited the ster to go along. They walked talked for an hour. That is, ommy did the talking, Steve the 1 ning. ommy told Steve the importance of the left jab, how to maneuver, the things to watch for most in the ring, how to keep off a rushing or too eager opponent. A few nights ago they helped Tommy out of the ring after he had failed utterly to stop the rushes of Steve, “I wish it had been anybody but you,” Steve said to Tommy after- ward, in the dressing room. “You were always my idol.” Gabby In Wrong Job Here's winter news from the Old Sarge king of Forty-Niners, Cardi- Gabby Street (and he shoots under 49 plenty) holed out two ap- | proach shots at Schifferdecker while playing with Dodger ocker on one of last week's cold- est days. “The first was a 60-yard approach on No. 1. When Gabby addressed his ball 60 yards from No. 2 green a few minutes later, he remark- ed: ‘Just to show that other shot was no fluke, watch this’ That approach trickled into the cup, too.

Presumably they are satisfied, since they took over the obliga- tion willingly and even fossed in {Bud Teachout in the exchange of Hack Wilson. Grimes, writes Jim Crusinberry in the Chicago Daily News, has put his baseball money into a place where he farms like a coun- try genileman and raises or trains fancy riding horses. He makes a nice profit at this business, too. ‘When he was in Ohio, the pitcher told Crusinberry, he once bought a horse for $200 and sold the ani- mal for $2,500 after training it for a year, Grief For Card Foes One of the reasons why the Car- dinals may think as well of Ray tarr as they do of the more cele- brated Dizzy Dean is the record of Starr’s achievements in Inter- national league company in 1931, |just revealed by the official aver- ages. The Rochester right-hander led | his league in “wirling effectiveness, at 2.83 runs per nine-inning game, besides showing the top record of 120 victories and 7 defeats. He | pitched 18 complete games, but was a trifle wild, issuing 102 passes lin 216 innings. | Rcenaamen o0 0 mrace d | LET FLOWERS Be YOUR VALENTINE Juneau Florists, Phone 311 — . — Old papers for sale at The Empire. adv. 7.2 i | -RITOLA / | vin, 6 feet 4% inc] | sell Stroud, 6 feet 4 NURMI ARD RITOLA | HAVE RUN ONE-TWO IN FIVE QLYMPIC RACES ~NURM( WINNING FOUR | TOSSES SAMPSON IN TITLE MATCH CINCINNATI, Ohio, Feb. 13.— Jack Reynolds, welterweight wrest ling champion, successfully defend- ed the title last night by winni two straight falls over Bobby Sampson of Los Angeles.

He arrived here from Williston, |Fla.,, where he had been playing semi-pro ball, with the news that neuritis, which ended his big league career, had disappeared. He said he was dickering with three big leagues and five AA clubs for his services, The first game Brush ever pitch- |ed for Tampa in the old South- eastern league tells his story. He struck out 12 and walked 14 men. Few hits were ever made off him. s CREIGHTON HEAVYWEIGHT AWARDED MIDWEST TITLE OMAHA, Neb., Feb. 13—It didn't take Dick Tomlinson long to get into the championship class. In fact, it was only three weeks after he donned boxing gloves for the first time that Tomlinson, freshman gridiron star at Creigh- ton university, was declared heavy- weight champion in the A. A. U. midwest distret tourney. After knocking out his’ first two foes in the Nebraska state tourney here, Tomilson lost in the finals, But when he entered the midwest tourney he was the only heavy- weight to show, and won the title by default, Now he’s training for the inter- state meet here this month. | worked together in | from 6 | inches.

The game was astnig from the first tip-off to the final gun. Rallies in the second wnd fourth quarters by the Douglas ys were de ve factors in their rictory. Forge Ahead In Second In the second quarter the Island- 1's piled up ten points while hold- ng their opponents to one point. \gain in the final quarter of the ;ame Douglas held the Crimson Jears to only one point while the /isiting athletes added nine to heir score. The height of Harry Lundell and Angus Gair gave them great ad- antage over their opponents. Rex Fox showed flashy flooor work vhich made the Juncau boys un- :omfortable. Of the Juneau team, Jlmer Lindstrom and Alvin Bloom- juist were the outstanding per- formers with George Karabelni. toff playing a hard, zame at guard. Juneau Scores First The first basket of the game was made by Robert Henning of the Juneau quintet. It was quickly fol- owed up by a basket from Gair of ‘he Island squad. Geir was allowed | 3 free shot which he converted 1dding one more point for Douglas. Henning received a long pass and :aged the ball for the Juneau ag- yregation. Lindstrom, flashy Ju- aeau forward followed his team- mate's example soon afterward. A long shot from the center by the ix-foot Islander, Gair, made spec- tators gasp. Lindstrom got the sall from the tip-off and sank it for Juneau. At the end of the first quarter the Douglaes team was be- nind three points, the score being Juneau 8, Douglas 5. The second quarter began with 2 long basket by Albert Wilson, Dougllas guard. Fox, speedy Doug- ‘as forward, scored a field goal. Lundell carried farther Douglas’ strong drive by caging two field z0als in quick succession. After a ‘imeout period by Douglas, Gair added one more field goal to the Island score. The only point made by Juneau in the second quarter was & free throw by Lindstrom which closed the first half. The half ended with Douglas in the lead 15 to 9. Gair Makes Star Play ‘While being checked in the third canto, Gair, of Douglas, who was ‘rying to get rid of the ball threw it at the backboard over the head of the man who was guarding him and the ball dropped through ‘he hoop for a field goal. Lind- sirom then staged a rally all his own when he made two field goals and a free shot in les than a minute and a half, which netted Juneau five more points.
