It is quite possible that DR.. Sargent in
getting up vari -colored maps of athletic de-
yelopment that 1t takes more ingenuity than
is needed to solve a Chinese puzzle to figures
out, and in measuring muscles with tape
only has forgotten that quality has as much
to do with " harmonious development " M
quantity. Whoever heard of boxing being
good for the legs only ? Why, the common
est illustrations of prize fighters show men
with Ike Weir's legs and John LIS shoulders.
DIR. Sargent, in previous papers, has depre-
ciated. 1t isn't the big but the good that is
wanted, physically, rs well as mentally, in
young as we'll rs old men.
Smuggling" the doctor considers the most
appreciated work at a boxing match nova
days. Once the skillful attack and defence
the adroit manGuvering and clever strategy
on both sides were the points most COM
mended." It's just, the same to-day, DIR.
La Blanche. the " slugger, y against - adroit"
Jack Dempsey in a finish fight. John l..
Sullivan himself had to change his happy-go-
lucky tactics in spite of his wonderful hitting
powers to beat some of the men he did.
DIR. Sargent's letter contains at least one
brilliant truth. "In exhibitions where glove
fights are introduced other sports seem tame
and uninteresting."

A billiard tournament, also for the club
championship, is proposed by the Manhat-

The Nassau Athletic Clubs final competi-
tons in Brooklyn tonight promise to be full
of interest. No wonder Mccormick acted IA
little sluggish in his bout with Manni on
Saturday night. He scaled q pound and a
quarter over the m~iddle-weight limit when
