BY R. D. THOMAS. Abnve the chorus of bowling challenges that follows the Campbell takes is heard a duet of squeaky soprano voices calling upon cifications to bowl for the fleaweight champion- his is something new. for experts, tournaments for dubs, contests amoung brothers, south- paws, men versus women and events with age llrnitaflons' but never before have bowlers classified themselves accordin, It may be that the challenge of little Jack Si Sisler, of the Arcadia, will go unaccepted for want of any among the thousands who play the game who can nudge the scales lightly enough to come within their specification. lll who can meet s ship of the city. Ray. and Jack, who are proteges of John 8. Blick, claim to be the smallest doubles teams extant. Ray weighs 63 pounds and Jack 61. Their challenge to all two- somes, if any other exist, with poundage not exceeding 124 to the pair. They might raise the limit by not a few pounds and still be able to compete successfully. Games of better than 100 are nothing extraordinary in the young lives of Jack, aged 14, and Ray, 16. In a contest between themselves the other day Jack shot 1:1 wnh four marks, and Ray breezed in front with a score of 148 th-c lncluded several clus- ters of marks.

NEW YORK, January 28.—Tennis fans who have been basing their predic- tions of an American victory in Davis | Cup competition this year on the ex- pected absence of Rene Lacoste, French ace, will have to revise their arguments or abandon them altogether. Lacoste, so Big Bill Tilden says in the magazine, American Lawn Tennis, has fully recovered from the illness that forced him out of the Davis Cup chal- lenge round last year and will again be an active performer in most of the big international tournaments as well as in the Davis Cup contests. A heavy cold which threatened to devel into influenza kept Lacoste out of the British championships at ‘Wimbledon last year as well as the challenge round of Davis Cup play when Jean Borotra and Henri Cochet just managed to beat off the American effort to recapture the trophy. With Lacoste back in the fray the American task will be that much more difficult. de led that the French are ex- with three new doubles et and Jacquest Brugnon, Borotra and Lacoste and Christian Boussus and Rene Debuzelet.

Jones Opens Face Of Niblick Wide BY SOL METZGER. For an explosion from a sand trap Bobby Jones opens the face of his niblick as shown in the illustration. There are two reasons for this. The first and foremost concerns the greater angle the club face is thus made to take. In other words, Bobby wants to make sure that his ball will rise rapidly. ‘The secondary reason is that in so opening the club he places it in FOR E.XPLOSION JONES OPENS M6 LIKE THIS N\ such position that its sharp heel, rather than the full len of the e blade, Less re- sistance is therefore encountered.

BY SPARROW McGANN. O major heavyweight con- test in the history of the prize ring has entered the final stages wlthhno gme opular acclaim as the Jacl gh‘;rkey-?hfl Scott contest to be held at Miami next month. The public in general has turned thumbs down on the match and the promoters, the Madison Square Garden Corporation, face the task of drumming up enough trade to meet the enormous ex- penditare required to put over a spectacle of this sort. Sharkey has been accused of picking his opponent. Scott, who arrived in New York this week, seems to be the easiest of the big feliows to push over, and it is said he was relected for this reason. This is unfair. Sharkey wants to be generally recognized as the world heavyweight champion. The local box- ing comm ruled huvyvelzht chnmplan of Great Britain and of Europe for that matter, must be eliminated. camlnz back into the history of the from the inception of the les, it will be the memory of the fans is that John L. Sullivan was not recognized as a world champion. This was due to the fact that Sullivan did not beat the recognized British champion of the time. No matter how lew the matter, you cannot by any ilml of argument call John L. a world champion. Muldoon Picks Scott. ‘With this in mind Willlam Muldoon, one of the trustees of the Muldoon- Tunney trophy, emblematic of the heavyweight chumplon. ruled that Scott and Max Schemling of Germany were the logical men to contest with Shlrkey for the vacant title. Scott's record as & whole is not one to excite the 1lnltlon or quicken the pulse of the A big, clever fellow with a fast left jab and a dis- tate for slugging or uk\nl punishment does not meet the modern conception ot what ne-vyweicm fighter should has done his best work against slov, lumberlnx fellows, and the paucity of knockouts his record is ample vmox that he doe- not. rell.sh hard slug- he reader may be surprised that this Kk | good fortune. that Phil Scott, as | ters bearin observer has h?d e Eu- ropean title. Phil hn better claim to the European title than Max Schmeling. The latter does not even hold the title of his own country, Ger- many, by right of conquest. The offi- cial heavyweight champion of Europe is Plerre Charles of um, who is booked for a 10-rounder against Tommy Loughran on the scon-sharkey card. Scott took a 10-round decision from Charles and would be acclaimed cham- plon of continental Europe if the Inter- national Bos Pedenuon lnd the British Board of Boxing Control recog- nized each othcr's rulings. Phil's Title Tainted. ‘Then , one cannot ignore the knockout Paolino Uzcudun scored over Scott in six rounds.

Of course, the na- tives, watching me belt tee shots and long irons, thought there was nothing |ish Ilawn wrong with my game, but I knew dif- ferently. 1 recall a day before the tournament when I was playing a practice round and putting slightly worse than usual, if that were possible, ! had just sent & smacking fine iron to the eighteenth green, and had & short putt for a birdie.

I sought out the urchin, swapped a spoon for the badly smashed putter, and took it to the shop, where a cheap shaft was affixed. ‘That club proved my most faithful friend.
