As rule the refereeless boxing
bouts. such as flourish in Los Ange-
les and Philadelphia. leave persons ut
a distance in doubt rs To how the
honors really were. An too frequent
ly each sporting writer at the ring
side enjoys an opinion entirely diff

When everybody seems to he of n

chance for an argument or Il come

of tho kopje as the place of his Tlativ-

barred from saying, 81 was rob bed"

This is hard to understand, and 1t
has never been claimed for the Boer
that he is anything but Il rough, will
inB workman, thoroughly lacking in
style and knowledge of the game. 1t
is more than probable. however, that
Nelson kept little in view but
knockout punch and thai he allowed
the other fellow to thrust indignities
upon him while trying TO work close
enough to administer one fell, swat
on the jaw.
One thing stands out through all
tue detailed accounts, however, to-
wit. that Nelson retained the quail
ties OF assimilation that caused him
to become known as the Durable
Dane. Another equally palpablc fact
! Is that Unholz does not rate very
hi5h as u punCher. He raincd blows
on Nelson's head all through the
| ten rounds. eYt Bat was only dazed,
land that slightly, for a few seconds
In the eighth round.
The result OF the contest will serve
10 boost the stock of Unholz, while
| Nelson will lost prestige over his
clash with the South African.
Considering the manner in which
| Nelson worked his way to the fore
front of the lightweight division, It
/ is hardly fair, however that his repu
tation should be injured by such
| things as ten-rOund bouts with pil-
lows. The Dane owes IL to himself
not TO allow his argument with I'm
holt2 to remain as it is. lie should
seek twenty-round bout with the
Bocr, and on the face of Il It looks
rs though one of the San Francisco
promoters could not do better than
put the pair in the ring at an early
, date.
The longer the rematching of I'm
holz and Nelson is deferred, the bet
ter 1t will he for Unholz and the
worse for Nelson. This because
whatever advantage Unholz gained at
Los Angeles will be magnifed when
the subject is being threshed out in
the different cities of the country.

mental powers will win out every
time and the only way to obtain
these elem entail forces is by a long
time spent in building up the general
strength of the body. Few men have
succeeded al; sprinting who have not
enjoyed goo,l health and more than
the average amount of strength. At
the same time they have given their
full attention. to the study of obtain
ing speed. Take list of the success

exception, state that they have been

strengthening tn cir muscles and
tendons. They ha We filled their ves-
sells with good, rich blood and built
up their strength in many ways,
taking care never to muscle-bind
themselves or adopt an exercise that
will slow their movements in the
least. They have not sought TO go
into gymnasium to lift heavy
weights, though they may have pos
sessed that strength, but by taking
up those systems of exercise that will
build up their strength in ways that
would improve their speed they have
obtained the strength and health that
has aided them in sprinting.
There is no athlete who will not
tell you of the advantage of cross
country work, not the long, grinding
runs that thoroughly exhaust and
tire out every one who participates
in them, but the long walks and joys
through the fields and over the hills
that will do more for ones health
and strength than anything else.
They bring into play every muscle
that will be used in sprinting or In
any other form of exercise and they
will supply needed tonic to every
atom of the body. Nothing will re-
suit in Il healthier tired feeling, n
better appetite or more stored-up
strength and energy than this form
of exercise. More of this kind of
play should be advised in every
school, less money would be needed
for gymnasiums and gymnastic APP

surely be obtained.

ming, the real backbone of all dis
lance running, as have the English.
When we do take up this sport, and
as we are doing this to a greater eX-
tent than ever before in our prepara-
tory schools and colleges and athletic
clubs, we may look for as much sue
cess in the longer races as we have
had and will continue to have in
sprinting.
The old adage that poets are bort
and not made is most pertinent in the
case of sprinting, for all sprinters
must have a natural burst of speed
before they take up the sport, should
they desire to rise very high in It.
a schoolboy wishing to go in for
track athletics should soon be able to
tell in what event in this branch of
sport he will succeed, especially If he
has mind to follow the shorter dis
tances. A few short races with his
schoolmates will convince him as to
whether he has the requisite speed to
start with. II he runs as well as or
letter than his companions, he
should by all means devote his time
to this branch of sport, for he is nat
urally chosen for 1t and will, with
proper care and training, on his part,
as well as his trainers, develop into
a fast runner.
On the other hand, boys should be
careful at what age they take up this
sport. Athletics will have no inju-
rious effect upon boy, no matter
how young, provided he does not ov-
erdo them, and by that mean does
not enter into competition until he
has obtained his full growth. The
age of 1G years is generally regarded
by trainers and others who have Civ

right one for young man to star

| amount of worrying over the subject
of training as far as diet and drinks
are concerned. More important than
all of these subjects is the one rela-
tive to sleep. Sleep is more beneficial
than any kind of food or drink that
the best of doctors can agree upon or
discover and this sleep should be
starte dat an early hour each night,
between 10 and 1890, for the old
saying that an hours sleep before
midnight is worth two after, has
much that smacks of sense in 1t. The
amount of time to be spent in sleep
will adjust itself for healthy boy.
Get us as soon as you awaken and
you will find that time to be between
and S o'clock.
The best advice to a beginner is to
be regular in everything. This APP
plies to work on the track, eating,
sleeping and study. Have a time set
Tor everything you do and then do IL
in spite of any and all opposition.
Perhaps the best example of this
point is to be found at the United
States Naval Academy and the Unit
ed States Military Academy. At each
OF these schools the life is regular in
every detail, year in and year cut,
and no healthier class OF young men
are to be found in the world. Eat
regularly, train regularly, sleep reg
ularly and do everything regularly
and little worry will have to be given
to the kind of food to eat, the amount
of sleep to take and whether tobacco
and alcohol are good for you. They
will then be looked at in the proper
light.
There are, of course, certain things
to eat and not to eat, just as there
are certain things to drink and not
to drink, when a boy is in training,
yet too much stress has been laid uD-
on these matters. Most people have
pretty good idea of what is right
and wrong, but in track athletics, as
in law, great deal of capital has
been made in arguing this point.
1t Is necessary that good, whole
some foods should be eaten, but not
In everdoses, and that water and milk
when drunk shall aid the runner
somewhat in fabrication. Milk is on
ly TO be taken lightly, for 1t has u
tendency to make n sprinter slow.

training and competitive work. De-
fore that time tile bones and muscles
of the human body are neither full
grown nor hardened for such work,
yet a boy earlier than this can in
dulge in good deal OF healthy exer-
else that will do him a great deal of
good. and every boy should do so, al
ways provided he does not strain
himself. Too many preparatory
school athletes have been injured by
injudicious trainers early in their
careers, and at the start have made
wonderful records for their ages, but
because of the strain put upon their
bodies they have declined in ability
after entering college and have never
been successful. 1t is this serious
work. brought about by racing, that
has injured many young fellow OF
promise.
This warning is given chiefly for
the purpose of calling the attention
of the trainers who handle the school
learned long ago. II Is a vital one.
Many schools that have track teams
can i'll afford the services of good
man to take charge of its athletically
inclined boys and as Il result injury
often comes. No one should be en-
gagged in this work by n preparatory
school who has not had plenty of en-
perience in this branch of athletics
at both school and college, or who
has not made thorough study of
conditions as they exist. The trainer
or coach should pay more attention
to the form of his proteges than to
! their records: more attention to their
general health and the all-around de-
velopment of their bodies than to the
onc-sided development that is bound
to result should the boy be trained
all the time for one speciality.
Track athletics never built up a
lad into man of robust constitution
and big muscles, unless 1t be in tho
weight event, and they are not prop
crly a branch of track athletics. A
boy taking up sprinting, and it might
be added any form of track or field
sports, should pay more attention to
his general physical development and
health than to the one event in
which he wishes to succeed, fol-
there is good reason back of this
plan. Let us consider 1t. In sprint

Cally all records for the shorter runs
are held by Americans. and this is
due primarily to the temperament of
our athletes. who possess the nervous
energy that is requisite for success in
this branch of track athletics. 1t is
also due to the fact that sprinting
requires more energy, more hard
work in training for and more sheer
power and nerve than any other
sport, and no other people more
closely reflect these characteristics
than we do. Then, too, we go at our
games and recreations much harder

Rival Suburban Citizens Associations

To the Editor of The Star:
The recent action of the East Brook
land Citizens Association in merging into
the Rhode Island Avenue Citizens Asso-
citation and including within its territory
nearly all of the subdivisions for years
past held by the Northeastern Suburban
Citizens Association as its territory
would lead our friends to believe that our
association was not fulfilling its duty as
representing Langdon and contiguous ter
ritory. which is not the case.
What we particularly resent is the in
Guiding of Langdon and contiguous terri
tory in the newly formed organization
and the meddling in affairs of interest
only to our citizens. For many years
past the Commissioners have looked to
the Northeastern Suburban Citizens AS
ISOLATION for suggestions regarding i'm
provements in the territory from Queen
Chapel road or 18th street northeast to
the District line. and from Bunker Hill
road to the Eastern branch of the Po
tomac river. Most of its recommendations
have been enacted into law. The opening
of Rhode Island avenue. the location of
the new engine house, the new school,
house. the water and gas mains. fire
alarm and police service. the new sewer
and many improved streets have all been
obtained by our association within the
past five years.
The opening up Of Rhode Island ave-
nue. filled the property owners with de-
sire. naturally. to have a great proportion
of the public improvements near their
lands. forgetting the old law of first come.
first served. When the engine house was
not located on this street many members
of our association living along this and
nearby streets became Disguised. for
getting the fact that there have been
members who have lived in Langdon for
over twenty years and who have never
enjoyed the benefits of improvements in
any form up to d few years ago
The Commissioners have been criticised
for the condition of the new Langdon
School building. The writer fully in
spected it Sunday and found it all that
could be desired in a suburban school.
Our citizens need not fear for the safety
of their children while at school
About the only improvement which sug-
gested the formation. in part, of the rival
| organization is the lowering of the grade
of Rhode Island avenue from 18th street
to oath street northeast 1t is the opinion
of the writer. backed up by former En-
gineer Commissioner Biddle's expert opin-
ion. recently officially given, that to lower
the grade four to six feet would cost
| $4,000, and that unless the City and
| Suburban railway helped defray this ex-
/ pense and Congress appropriated the
money 1t never would be done. There
| is no public necessity for the lowering
| of this grade as suggested for property
between 18th and Goth ST. Gets is now
twenty to twenty-five feet in the air.
while from Goth to oath street it is a few
| feet below grade. 1t would be better
for all concerned to get the street graded
and made passable first instead of fixing
a suitable grade.
