THOMAS. | | N Alexandria fight crowd got dizzy watching the antics of Antol Kocsis, 's\}*cn he made a novice, com- varison, of Norfolk Billy Landers but the spinning won't be all voluntary next Monday night, when the Hungarian yo yo top tries his tricks on Dick Welsh of Philadelphia and Norfolk, 1mn Ritchie Coliseum Welsh is almost unknown to Wash- ington ring fans, but the Norfolk youth, transplanted from Quakertown, has gone quite as far along the cham-| pionship trail as Kocsis, who first came | to notice as bantam king of the 1928 Olympics and later won the profes- sional flyweight and bantam titles of Hungary, which he now hold: At the age of 21 Welsh has a long string of victims, but the scrap that has given him more prestige than any victory was a draw with the present recognized champion, Midget Wolgast gained within the last year. This means a lot to those who saw Wolgast, by an even greater margin than Koc: outpoint the hard-hitting and determined Landers several wecks ago. Wolgast's ed to some was amazing. Norfolk Billy barely was able to touch him. HE praise of Wolgast hardly had subsided when Kocsis appeared against the same dangerous ring- man to surprise with his speed and skill. And after this bout, uppermost in minds of those who trek to Alex- andria week after week—to see one good show after another—was the thought: “What might Kocsis and Wolgast do to each other?” At least a suggestion of the answer 1s due when Welsh and Kocsis collide. Frankie Mann, the matchmaker, de- scrives Welsh as a fast, smart boxer, who keeps moving. In this the Amer- jcan differs none from the Hungarian, but the latter also goes in for show- manship. He's easily the most color- ful fighter to appear before a Washini ton gallery since Heinie Miller’s day as a promoter at Kenilworth and Berwyn. | ‘Whatever the outcome, a first-class | ring battle seems guaranteed. Both | Kocsls and Welsh are rated among the contenders for the bantam crown. What | we'd like to know is, if Welsh wins does he get that Hungarian title?

AYTONA BEACH, Fla,, February 26.—Sir Malcolm Campbell said beach and weather conditions today would determine whether he would try to break his newly-made land speed records or ship his 42- cylinder racing car back to England without further runs. H» made preparations to. have the | car on the beach at low tide late this afternoon and said if conditions were favorable he would try for new marks for the kilometer, the mile, the fiv kilometer and the five-mile distances. Otherwise, he said, he will abandon his speed runs, ship his car back to England tomorrow and leave here him- self Tuesday or Wednesday. He plans to spend some time making short visits in Washington and New York before sailing for England March 4. In two runs Wednesday, the British driver set records of 253.968 miles an hour for the mile, 251.340 for the kilometer and 241.569 for the five kilometers to raise his previous marks. | He already held the record of 211.491 | miles an hour for the five-mile distance. | He was anxious, he said, to better his new records.
