Its reputation for cold weather |and hardihood has made Minnesota a logical, though not always suc- cessful, favorite for winter titles, and this year has been one of peak production. The Gopher State has six na-l tional amateur skating champions and a pair of ski-jumping titlists. Here they are: Geofge Kotlarek, Duluth, ski champion; Eugene Wilson, Cole- raine, intermediate ski champion; Robin Lee, 17, Minneapolis, fancy skating, and the speed skaters— Marvin Swanson, Minneapolis, se- nior men; Dorothy Franey, St. Paul, senior women; Dick Beard, Minne- apolis, intermediate; Donny John- son, 11, Minneapolis, juvenile, and Earl Mosiman, Minneapolis, junior. - COLONISTS CELEBRATE The President’s Birthday Ball, postponed from January 30 because the hall was not completed at that time, was held in the new Commun- | ity Hall at Matanuska on Washing- ton’s Birthday.

Williams, District Engineer, ' SPORT SLANTS Enthusiastic managers of prom- ising young fighters have always| |been quick to label their porteges | “another Dempsey,” “another Cor- | bett,” ‘“another Benny Leol\ard,"" and so on. But by some strange oversight Gene Tunney, the retired | undefeated heavyweight champion, * has seldom, if ever, been so honor- ed. Now that is all changed. California fight fans have been calling Phil Brubaker, their very own entry in the “White Hope” stakes, “another Gene Tunney.” Their claim is not without some foundation for the Dinuba Dynamo lb a real student of the boxing !'game. Like Tunney, he has no great love for the business of mauling his fellow man for pay and openly admits that he is working at his chosen trade only because it offers him a means of acquiring a fair share of the coin of the realm | within the next few years. Punches Too Hard The comparison goes beyond that oint. Bruaker is, like Gene, a ( scientific boxer. He packs quite a ) punch, too. As a matter of fact, he punches too hard for his own good. Bad hands have handicapped his progress in the past, but that seems to have been pretty well remedied since Phil has gained more knowledge in the are of land>, ing a blow. He has been knocked down on one or two occasions but that only served to answer the question that sooner or later con- fronts every young fighter—can he get off the floor and go on to win? Brubaker proved that he could do that. The California “hope” scales around 200 at present and is likely to grow a bit, since he has just ‘passed the voting age. For a chep | who doesn’t realy care for the ring game he donned the gloves at an ,early age. He has been boxing since \he was a lanky kid of 16, then a | sophomore in high school. In his }first professional fight, Brubaker met Bert Colima, when Bert was pretty well past his peak. Since then he has beaten a flock of fight- ers named “Joe." His best showing, perhaps, was his one-round knock- out over Fred Lenhart. He beat Levinsky in his last start and with the experience gained in winning the decision over the Kingish, Bru- baker is ready to step out after bigger game. In fact he has his heart set on a match with Primo Carnera as a stepping stone to big- “Amateurs” Too Rough A little thing like a beating at ) 1 means the ahnds of a rising youngster nothing to King Levinsky . . he has been beaten by some of the best men in the business, including Max Baer and Joe Louis, The Kingfish is mighty tolerant and wants to see the youngsters get ahead—the more ambiticus youngs sters, the more fights for Levinsky in his role of trial horse. Speaking of youngsters always in- spires the Kingfish to relate some experience of his own young and more foolish days. He recently ad- mitted that the amateur boxing game lost his services when' it couldn’t meet the purses offered by the professional promoters. “Why shouid I fight for $2 a night as an amateur when I could get $10 as a pro?” asked the Kings fish. “They raised me to $5 when I hollered. But the amateurs werd too tough, anyway. I had 17 fights as an amateur and lost every one. Why should I get my brains beat out for $5 when I could get $10 or $15 for the same thing as a pro, I asked myself.” 4 ROSE DAVIS TO ENTERTAIN CLUB Members of the Business and Pro- fessional Women's Club will be the guests, in April, of Rose Davis, Di- rector of the Government School in Douglas, and prominent member of the club.
