J. This will be the star attraction, both boys weighing fn at 130 pounds. The bout is for 12 rounds. Hugh Rorty will be the third man. The preliminaries all look good and especially so are the 10 round mateh between Jimmy Cox of Wor- cester and Paddy Ryan ef Pitts- burgh and the six round melee be- tween Frank Senk of Springfield and Blllis Garvie of Worcester., Thesk fights are under the auspices of the Atlas A.

Kor that reason it is a rather Interesting colncidence that the two real batting leaders of the | Ameorican league In 1824, began, {thelr major league carcers at that| posttion, Babe Ruth, swat champlon of 11024 achieved brilliant success as a | pitcher before {t was discovered that he had even greater talents " as a batsman, \ | When Babe quit pitchipg and teok | to the outfiecld¥ so that his club ‘mlgl\l have the benefit of his super- (batting dally, he was recognized as |the best southpaw in the American ieague. Charlie Jamieson of the Cleve- land club, runnerup to Ruth, threw them with his left ‘“super” as a | pitcher when he made his American |league debut. Jamleson, however, |falled to reach stardom as a pitcher as did Ruth, Certainly Ruth and Jamieson belic the generally accepted impression | that pitchers cannot hit. Each has |an entirely different style at the ‘plnle. ‘ Despite the popularity of the open game in football it Is a very easy matter fo find any number ot coaches who are of the opinion that {the forward pass is being overdone, The forward pass is the chief | weapon in the open game. Success- | ful aerfal play has been the con- | |tributing factor fo most of the up- | {sets in a season jammed with re- versals of form. Football Gossip Many of the coaches who feel that | more severe restrictions should be | placed on the open game are those | who knew football in the old days. | A recent suggestion by a well known coach that the number of | forward passes permissible in a !game be limited to 10 is rather in- teresting if not scemingly loglcal. Unquestionably a number of coaches, defrated by long forward | |passes in the last fow minutes of | |play, hold no love for the promis- | cuous tossing of the ball through | | the air. | | | The impression prevails that foot- | ball {s getting too much like its win- | ter brother, basketball. No doubt {the forward pass will be tha subject | |of much discussion when coaches | |and rule makers get together. | ! er who has designs on league indulgs in football? Recently in discussing that phase | of sport with a famous foothall coach, he came out strongly against | the Dbig had big league jdeas, “Football and baseball have noth- ing In common, unless the player simply has the thought of his alma | mater at heart and the ability to| help ft. “Very often what we regard as a minor injury from a football stand- :pom'. is a catastrophe to ball player, “Foothall is a stranuous game that takes much out of the athlete, Big |league baseball, covering six months physical a [of play, calls for greater perfection. “Well do T recall the case of a| famous college pitcher, an equally | great foothall player, whn suffered a | fminor football injury to his pitching jarm that eventually ended his carger ANYTHING AT BAT? | Mofrit I {the pairing of sports, 1t the athlete [ On the Alleys KENSINGTON FRATERNAL LEAGUE American Tegion, 0 Low Man Carey ..
