e Paulino No Easy Mark, Says DELANEY FACES BIG TASK SPOT S SHECTED IN BEATING WOODCHOPPER Jack Superior in peed a ‘SrORYS) nd Accuracy, But Basque Has Great Edge in Strength and Stamina. Winner Thursday Will Meet Sharkey. BY BENNY LEONARD, Retired Lightweight Champion of the World EW YORK, August 8.—After watching Paulino Uzcudun the Basque woodehopper. who mowed down larry Wills in four rounds, go through session at his camp in Sum- mit, N. 7., 1 can’t help but think that Jack Delaney, abdicated light-heavy- weight champion, has a llerculean task on his hands this Thursday night when he is to meet Paulino in a 15- round battle in Yankee Stadium. 1 know that Delaney is a great hit- ter, or at least, he was a great hitter among the lightheavyweights. They tell me that Delaney has taken on nearly ten pounds. They mean that he will he fizhting at 10 pounds over the light-heavyweight limit, which is 175 pounds. Well. even at 185 pounds-— if Delaney weighs that much—his punch will not be as deadly among the heavyweights as it was among the men of the lighter class. Delaney’s great hitting ability 1 prove a contributing cause to his downfall in this fight, because Pau- lino has such stamina and ability to take it. Delaney may injure his hands or hurt his arm punching the Basque. | How Rivals Compare. Paulino will have weight and strength on Delaney. They are about | evenly matched in height, but there | the equality ends, Dclany outclas the Basque in speed and accur hitting, but Paulino offsets this by his great strength and amazing abili- 1y to stand up under punishment with- out showing signs of weakening. Every time Delaney hits Paulino, the Basque will fight back harder; but every time Paulino hits Delaney, he will take quite a little of the pep out of the man who gave up a title in order to do battle with the bigger fel- Jows. Delarey always was a terror against men of the rushing type, as Paulino, | but he was hitting lighter, weaker- | jawed targets than this one. This will | be something like Delaney hitting an | oak tree. He will have no trouble in | in landing his punch, but what then? He may hurt himself more than he hurts Paulino, who certainly reminds me of an oak tree. Just vou stand up and take a good: healthy sock at training an onk not so eager to try a sccond. » it may be with Delaney. 1f he lets a few go at Paulino, and that “golden smile” keeps floating in upon him, and Paulino lands a few of his “anatomy disturbers,” Delany may find it difficult to weather the storm Basque Slow, But Strong. The Rasque is slow, but up to date ppears to be indefatigable. De. rey. of course, figures to have all the better of the early rounds, but he alse figures to tire more rapidly than the woodchoppe In his training Paulino is not foct s He is fighting with George Miller and M Rosenbloom Both of thete are good hoxers and they give Paulino excellent workouts, especially Miller, but they vt keep Paulino off. And when Paulino gets in close and lands—Ugh You ally feel the wallop yourself. Paulino is absolutely confident ho will win. Defeat is a word not in his vocabulary when it comes to applying it to himself. “Victory™ is his watch- word. Is Different From Firpo. T have been informed by the highest withority that if Paulino defeats De. laney he will be matched right away with vkey. The plan is to hold this battle before the Dempsey- Tunney fight to either Dempsey or Tunney before they meet the Paulino-Sharkey winner will act as substitute, Paulino is different from Firpo. He is affable and likeable. He has a smile and a handshake for everyhody. He is popular. He is full of fun. There is nothing morose about him, and he likes to fight. Firpo didn’t particu- lavly like the game. He was in it for what money he could make out of it. He took if, himself and everything else, terribly seriously. Paulino really loves to fight. revels in combat, and yet he keeps his camp on edge all the time with the practical jokes he plays on his spar- | ring partners, trainers, managers and | visitors, but an, at him. Even in battle Paulino shows no malice—only a keen delight in swap- ping punches. He gives as blandly as he takes. And. oh, how he can take! (Copyright. 19271 it is impossible to get THREE JUNIOR NINES LEAD IN TITLE RACE A triangular mix-up has developed in local junior base ball championship ranks, which will probably require plenty of action if it is to be unrav-| eled. | Anacostia Eagle Juniors, coached by Mrs, Eva O'Donnell, and Moose | Juniors, managed by William J.

But one game has been lost by the Birds this season, and that to | the Maryland team. Nalley predicts that his charges would win the majority of games in a three-game clash with the Eagles. His team’s victory over Brentwood is but one of the many scored over the best Junior teams in independent and Cap- ital 'City Lague ranks.
