SPORTS. BY H. C . BYRD. Virginia February 27 and March 1 will be the biggest in the | THE Southern Conference boxing tournament at University of history of the conference, according to James G. Driver, di- rector of athletics at Virgini Conference committee on boxing. better competition is in view and tend, if Driver is right in his estimates of ia and chairman of the Southern More schools will be represented, greater crgwds are certain to at- e situation. Inciden- | tally, Driver takes issue somewhat with Dick Smith of Washington and Lee in Smith’s contention about basket ball developing more rapidly than any other indoor sport. “We now have assurances that 11, possibly 12, schools will take part in the boxing tournament this year,” says Driver, “and heretofore the greatest number that have competed is 9. “From_the Far South are coming ‘Tulane, Florida, Georgia and Louisiana State. ' From nearer are entered Clem- son, South Carolina, North Carolina, Washington and Lee, Virginia Military Institute, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and Virginia. If we get entrles from any more schools we shall have to run :he tournament three days instead of wo. “This boxing tournament has come to be very popular and just as big a crowd as can crowd into our gymna- sium attends. The boxing is good and you would really be surprised at the ability of some of these college men to handle their fists if you have never seen them do it. “Personally, I am very much inter- ested in boxing as a college sport and think it is coming to the front very rapidly. It has o to greater pro- rtions in a brief time than any sport Fknow, Not only do the boys them- selves like it immensely, but the spec- tators go wild over it. Down at Vir- ginia it is the most popular sport we have except foot ball, and is growing all the time. We had 4,000 persons at our match with North' Carolina the other night. “I disagree somewhat with my friend Dick Smith in his idea that basket ball is the main thing indoors. He probably is right' in saying that gen- erally it is played to a larger extent and draws more people, but wherever boxing has been introduced it has soon relegated basket ball to second position. And, In my opinion, that will continue to be the case. \ “In reality, boxing is a great sport and one of the finest forms of physical from him, and is rapidly getting things organized at Virginia so that Virginia will soon take its rightful place in the athletic world. Lou Little, newly installed foot ball coach at Columbia University, has drawn on the ranks of his former pupils and assistants at_ Georgetown exten- sively in building the Ligns’ new tutor- Ing staff. Sam Cordovano and Paul Liston of last Fall's Hoya eleven, George McCabe, Georgetown quarterback several seasons ago, and Herbert Kopf, assistint to Lit- tle at the Hilltop for five years, are given places on the new staff. So are Arthur Sampson, formerly head coach | at Tufts, and Ralph Furey, a Columbia | product.’ Furey, who was captain and end of the Lions in 1927 and assistant freshman coach last year, is the only member of the Columbia 1929 tutoring staff to be retained by Little. Sampson is to be backfield coach, Kopf assistant backfield coach, Cordo- vano line coach, Furey head freshman coach, McCabe freshman backfield coach and Liston freshman line coach. With the exceptions of Sampson and Furey, all coaches chosen have been trained and coached by Little. Lou ex- pects Cordovano, McCabe and Liston to develop rapidly as coaches as all were keen students of foot ball, as well as ex- cellent players in their positions. Probably the biggest basket ball game of the year, from a standpoint of at- tendance, will be played tonight in the ‘Tech High gymnasium between George- town University and Loyola University of Chicago. The visitors have lost only one game out of 35 played last year and so far this, and undoubtedly have one of the two or three best co{lue quints in the United States. The record of victories speaks for itself. The game is to begin at 8 o'clock, and Tech's gym is likely to be taxed to its capacity. exercise. I know of no other that so develops a boy from every point of view, both mentally and physically. As far as the individual himself is concerned, I believe that boxing is just as valuable as foot ball. It is growing rapidly and will continue to grow. I introduced boxing at South Carolina and it took there just as it does everywhere else. “Let more schools take up boxing and, mark my word, you will see basket ball take a secondary place in the in- door schedules of college athletic teams.” Driver spent two days here the last week end, working on matters of ath- letic interest to his university.

CHICAGO, February 10—Eight sen- sational spills, following one another in | rapid order, marked the first night and early morning of racing in the Chicago six-day bicycle racing. It was only a few hours after 15 in- | ternational teams began the long grind | that accidents were responsible for two | of the teams being eliminated and one of the riders being sent to the hospital. Franz Deulberg and Jimmy Walthour, the German-American “kid team,” were holding down first place early to- day as the riding settled down to a ‘weary grind. Alfred Letourner, popular little mem- ber of the French “Red Devil” team, was resting comfortably in a hospital with a badly shattered collar bone. Anthony Piemontasf, Ttalian rider brilliant on the roads of his own coun- try, was ruled out as unable to ride the small wooden saucer after falling three times and causing the spill which put Letourner in the hospital. Lance Claudel, New Orleans young- ster, making his debut to six-day bike riding, was unable to stand the gaff, and his retirement also put his team- mate, Pete Smessaert, Chicago boy, out A. Pa gerald, 36 baskets; C. kets. In another college basket ball Huna tonight a decidedly local affair will be resented. At American University, the les will entertain the five of Catholic University. Play will start at 8 o'clock. Spring must be on its way. Calls have been issued by’ the colleges in the far South for base ball candidates, and practice begun looking to the develop- ment of varsity nines. With diamond practice starting this early, it is not surprising_that teams in that section have a big advantage on Northern schools that make early Spring trips that way. ALLISON IS TENNIS By the Associsted Press. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., February 10.— ‘Wilmer Allison of Austin, Davis Cup star, today was singles champion of the San Antonio Country Club's first an- nual invitation tennis tournament, after winning five straight games and the match yesterday from Berkeley Bell of Austin, singles intercollegiate champion.

Knapp s prised his opponent by brilllant playing and Carl resigned on his 23d move. It is understood this game will be entered for a brilliancy prize, Byler also showed himself superior in a game with Walker, who played the alekhine defense, and won in 33 moves. These players are old rivals. They played together on the Interior Depart- ment team in the Department League series, and the Interior Department team won every year except one.

If a eouch finds one for a center he's evidently been living right, for a tall center means you'll control the ball on toss ups. That means you'll have a big edge on the other fellow. Centers get uncanny at times. Indiara has had such and so did the Hillyards and Kansas U. One great stunt for a center to pull, when he controls the tap, is to tap the' ball outside of the center circle and directly back of him. Like a flash he's after it and begins a circular mble that always keeps his immediate opponent back of him. ‘When clever at dribbling and fast of foot a center who does that can, with the aid of clever forwards, dribble right up to the basket for a two-pointer before the other five knows just what has happened.
