LASSEN Is Young Heetor, the Bremerton heavyweight, afraid to meet Frank Farmer, the Tacoma logger, at the Crystal Pool Friday night? That is what local fans are asking as the big fellow from across the bay still refuses to live up to his contract to meet Farmer in the main event of Austin & Salt’s first smoker of the season. Hector signed articles to fight for Salt last Saturday and) then refused to go on with Farmer. still had a verbal agreement with Clay Hite, of the North-| west club but, regardless of the fact that he had the first right to the bout, Clay went ahead and announced that Anderson would meet Carl Morris here October 22 in his opening show.

Morris is one of the best known heavyweights in the game, and his recent knockout of “Fat’ Larue in Oakland stamps him as being far! from thru in the ring game. In the) South the fans were touting Larue for a match with Jack Dempsey be- fore Morris knocked him for a home run. Morris is a big fellow and was the first heavyweight to be heralded as a “white hope.” He has fought all over the country and has won most of his) fights. | When Morris fought Jack Dempsey he happened to take one of Jack's) wild swings in the right spot and he kissed the canvas for the count of | 10, but he isn’t the only man to be} defeated by Dempsey—don't forget Jesse Willard.

He was captain of his freshmen football and baseball teams, He played on six varsity elevens and four varsity nines, being captain of the football outfit in Junior and senior years, bat re fusing the baseball captaincy because he did not believe that teams should be led by men tn the graduate schools, In his sophomore year he won the high hurdles at the Yale meet, later being Yale's representative, with Slocum the first inter. collegiate lawn tennis champion: ship tournament, As a varsity shortstop he led the Vale field ers, and as a batter held the college record with a total aver. age of 667 . From the time of his gradua- tien, until a few years ago, Yale athletes were practically under his direction, In private Ife Mr, Camp ts president and treasurer of the New Haven Cloak Co, and is associated closely with many business and civic organizations. Mr. Camp was the first to see the desirability of general phy- sical fitness among all classes, and quite some time before the United States entered the war, he organized a number of “senior service corps” to promote phy- sical fitness in men of mature years. Tt was at Mr. Camp's sugges tion that the aviation depart- ment officials first selected skilled trainers for conditioning aviators and thru his efforts more than 35 former college trainers and athietes took up this work. Perhaps the most interesting and unique of all the senior service corps, was that in Wash- ington, D. ©. comprised of sen- ators and congressmen, who un- der the personal direction of Mr. | Camp, took daily instruction in ee Seattle Boys How Grid Game Should Be Played With the world’s series tucked away in sport history the eyes of the sport world are turning to the gridiron.
