L SR e Speaking; of Sports BRI South American heavywolght has approached the end of his days as a pugllistic attraction. According’ to McCarney, Firpo now weighs 255 pounds and cannot hope to regain his best fighting condition. The Now York Giants, winners of the ‘Nationul league gon- falon, have got away to thelr char- acteristic start again this scason Well, just us was predicted, the Herald's selection of three all-star Dusty league teams last night caused 1o little conversation among the bas. ketball fans and, likewlse, no differ- vnees of opinion cropped up, That is as it should be for it but bears out the contention that. the » hoys were very evenly matched and like. wise proves that the fans take great | interest in them | Making whirlwing beginning has become more or less of a habit with the cratty McGraw, In 1023 lis club set a fast pace right from the opening gong. And last repeated the same stunt. g McGraw is a great believet in the old theory that games weon in April are just as important as those grab- bed in September.

Last year the McGraw clan reach- ed the top of the heap after the first 10 days of the scagon. And it was never licaded. In the last few wecks Dittsburgh and Brooklyn seriously threatemed the Giant stronghold. But neither could quite make the grade. Those carly geason ictories helped to pull the Gotha- mites throwgh.
