RIVERS FAVORITE OVER
BROWN; ODDS 10 TO 7

Los ANGELES, CAL. Feb 20
With Joe Rivers and * o." Brown
training faithfully and their managers,
Levy and Morgan, holding a verbal war
every time they meet, the twenty
round lightweight battle scheduled for
Saturday is commecing to loom up in
interest
Despite Browns two credited victo-
ries over Ad Wolgast, the coin of the
Los Angeles sports is going up on Riv-
ers, and the local boy is 10 to favor
lite, Dan Morgan, however, declares
that enough Eastern money will be
placed on Brown to make him even
choice with Rivers. This is doubtful.
and Rivers will probably enter the ring
a heavily played favorite.
Joe Levy is authority for the state
ment that his boy is hitting like the
kick OF a mule" and he feels sorry for
Brown. who, he declares, will never be
the same boy after Rivers gets through
drubbing him.
Brown claims to have Rivers goat on
a leading strap. When they were in
PRODUCED at the ringside of the Will
liams Campi fight Brown deliberately

Rivers and he was flustered for some

Dragging by Brown has been taken up
and discussed along serious lines 1t is
recalled that Rivers grew angry at
Johnny Kilbane after chasing him
around the ring, and stuck out his jaw
and was put to sleep with a single

WILLIAMS GOES ON STAGE.
BUT NOT FOR A LONG STAY

Los ANGELES, Feb 20.-Kid Viii
liams is going to try the vaudeville
game for while. Manager Harris has
signed contract with a theatrical
syndicate for a week al San Francisco
and another at Oakland. In all like
lihood this will terminate the engage
ment, as Harris and Williams want to
be in readiness for Johnny Coulon in
April, in the event that the champion
is able to give Williams a match for the
bantam title During the illness of
Coulon and until the champion an
nounces himself ready to defend his
titular claims again, Williams will act
as champion and claim the active"
title.
Harris promised Eddie Campi re-
turn match with Williams when he met
the native son and Manager McGratk,
but no definite details were agreed
upon McGrath asked the pointed
question: "Will Williams give Campi
return match?' Harris answered.
without hesitation or stammering, with
an affirmative:
Sure, we will give Campi a return
match. We admire the little fellow and
believe return match would prove
better drawing card than the original
match"

Gave Me Keen Eye and Free SWING Declares Champion
ZIMMERMAN SAYS GOLF MADE HIM GOOD HITTER

1t is always best to swing a cou-
pie of bats before taking your place
al the plate. When you discard
one bat, the one YOU cling to seems
so much lighter and YOU are there
fore able TO swing it at ease.
Never Sets for Ball.
! never set for BAH. | always
keep my bat swinging and my free,
natural swing permits me to meet
the ball at precisely the right mo-
ment. ! grip the handle of the bat
tightly with my left hand, and
let the willow rest in the palm
of my right hand, placed directly
under the left. That allows freer
motion of the right wrist. so that
can swing the bat in any direc-
ton, to meet the approaching ball.
Never watch the pitcher going
through his gyrations. A batter
with free swing has sufficient time
to apply the bat. just as the ball
reaches the plate.
1t is said tina; ! show marked
weakness for curve balls. on the
contrary, prefer hitting curve
to any other delivery AT first the
pitchers tried to feed" me with
curves, but. to their dismay, l hit
that sort of pitching easier than
any other.
Change of pace is what bothers
a batter. That is where the pitch
er shows his ability to outguess the
man at the bat Speed, curves and
slow balls have no terrors to bats
men If the pitcher does not know
how TO change pace" 1t is when
a tWlrler starts mixing them up on
you that you get confused and offer
at anything he snoves up to the
plate.
For some reason I like to bat

play that was made on one pitched

A cross-eyed pitcher with left
hand delivery was working. He
was some speed merchant. besides
having gray matter in his dome.
There was man on first base
who thought the pitcher was look
ing al him. as did the man at the
bat, Both were fooled when the
ball was suddenly shot across the
plate for a strike and the man on
first slid back to the base. Again
this happened, and both batter and
runner were determined to make a
getaway on the next ball. The
pitcher wound up, shot the ball
over to first and the eXpectant bat
ter struck, thus making an out at
the plate and one on first. Do not
repeat this in a crowd as it has a
technical flaw.
