Perhaps Frankie did not need a good forehand to down Hare in such convincing fashion. Hare showed enough to make Don Budge hustle a few days before his match with Parker, and, on the strength of that showing, was conceded a fair chance of beating Parker. What the Amer- ican youngster lacked he more than made up for in court strategy. He made Hare play the way he want- led him to and won easily. After {all, that's what Parker set out to do, s more power to him. Few young stars in any field of athletic endeavor are without me- chanical flaws. Remember how the experts hopped on Joe Louis the day after Max Schmeling took him apart | and showed up his utter lack of de- es? Bob Feller's jerky delivery made him a target for form analysis. Their dire prediction that he would throw his arm out came mighty near be- ing realized when a sore arm forc- ed the sensational young Cleveland hurler to the sidelines. Feller is pitching a slightly different brand of ball since his return to action. Indications are he will prove quite a hurler before he winds up his ca- reer. It has been pointéd out that, Thumping Jimmy Thompson's back |swing is entirely too fast. Maybe| lit is, but Jimmy stands pretty much alone when it comes to pounding| the little white ball for distance. Paul Runyan has many flaws in his swing. It is only a three-quarter swing; he sways his body; he fails; to keep his head down. a period of years, Paul has done| !fairly well in this game of golf. s MAINE BATTLER KAYOES HEAVY FROM CAPITAL BANGOR, Me., Aug. 12. — Al McCoy, 183 -pound heavy from Winslow, Maine, landed a kayoe, punch on Red Barry, 184, of Wash- ington, D.
