KUBIAK IS
NOT A RINGER

GRAND RAPIDS, Dec. 1.-THE charge
made by Jimmy DeForest. the New
York boxing manager that Al lSubiak,
the Michigan fight wonder is a ringer, be-
ing none other than John DAILY. of South
Carolina. an old timer is easily refuted
here. Kubiak is well known here, where
his family still resides.
Two years ago Kubiak was member OF
the police force. one of the duties Of
patrolman here is to keep up his muscle
by athletic achievement in the Sky par
lor gymnasium at police headquarters.
The chief amusement Of the policemen
there is wrestling and # was through
this that Kubiak became aware of the
fact that he was vastly superior to the
ordinary man. lie served as patrolman a
year. then took up wrestling as a pro-
fessional. After a series of wrestling bouts
In the State he turned to boxing which
he liked better. lie could not find field
in Michigan wide enough for his talents,
so went East.

WARRIOR NOT
A REDSKIN

The impression has prevailed that
pitcher Warhop. secured last fall from
willlamsport by the New York Ameri-
cans, is full-blooded Indian, but ii
turns out to the surprise Of the Goth
antics that such is not the case. War
hop is an assumed name which the
young man took when he was pitching
for an Indian team, The twirler is
a piucky Irish-Amercan who answers
to the name OF Flynn and who is re-
garded as a conner. In the Tri-State
last year he won twcnty-nine games
and lost seven and Catcher Jack
Kleinow. who handled his curves i'm
New York last fall, said yesterday that
he had never seen a more promising
young pitcher. Kleinow also thinks
that the other youngsters, pitcher Will
