BOXERS FAIL TO
USE BODY BLOW.
Modern Style of Training With
Punching Bag Hindrance

New York, oct. 1.-The usefulness
of the modern inflated punching bag
as a means of developing the hitting
power is being seriously questioned by
some of the leading boxers with brain
enough to try TO get at the bottom OF
things concerning their trade The OBJ
lection is that the bag, twinging on a
level with the strikers head, is of no
use i'm developing body blows. 1t is
noticeable that body punching is be-
coming a lost art, most modern boxers
directing all their attention to swing
ing for the head
Even those who are versatile enough
To direct their blows wherever an OPP
cning can be found, put far more force
in those for the jaw than those for
the region of the belt line. Yet the
body blow is by long odds the most
damaging. It's effect is lasting, while
u blow t. the jaw. unless is daHcs
badly, does no harm.
Overlook Chance
Formerly a large portion of knock
outs We're scored by clcan-cut body
blows. Nowadays the proportion is CX-
trcmely small. In all probability there
i'm lies the reason that modern glove
ago. and accounts for the fact that
white hopes are so slow i'm developing.
Even those who favor the body blow
are far from being capable opponents
of its use. They employ the same
swinging motion that they use in
blows for the head. This is neces
sarily awkward and does not produce
effective results. a half-arm jolt or
uppercut. such as Fitzsimmons used
against Corbett and Sharkcy. is the
most effective style but this blow can
not be developed by swinging at "a baa
hung on level with the head. a di-
rcCtly opposite set of muscles are re-
uuircd i'm delivering it and as the av-
,raEc boxer ncglects to develop them
he has to depend ON head blows.
Few Able to Do It
When the modern boxer scores hcav-
lily with a body blow, it is usually Il
straight right for the heart--a punch
that can be practiced on the bag.
johnny Coulon. Jack Britton. Leach
Cross. Eddie McGoorty and Gunboat
Smith all use this blow we'll but none
of them ever scores a knockout with
Il half-arm jolt delivered at close quar-
ters.
Before the air-inflater sphere be-
came so popular, heavy. slow swing
ing bag filled with sand was used
Even now the old school managers
have one of these Ia their training
quarters. This offers good practice for
body blows bat ii is seldom used prop
crly. even when IL is most neglected
altogether. The air bag is more spec
tacular ana its use affords more
amusement. For this reason the heavy
bag does not find favor with modern
boxers but they lose by not taking adj
vantage of It's good features.

LEFT JAB MADE
AND BEAT RYAN
Developed Blow Close to Perfec.
ton But Was Careless

Chicago, oct. Left hand jabs
ever have been the favorte method of
the clever fighter to win with, but
ii is doubtful If the system of keeping
an opponent off with Il long left and
pecking him to pieces without taking
many chances with the right was per-
fected much before the adept Tommy
Ryan of Syracuse, y. Y, and later re-
garded as the real middleweight
champion brought it out prominently
Ryan won most of his battle with
enc of the greatest left hands the
ring ever knew and his style was SO
nearly the ideal that ever since then
the real boxer has been copying the
method. Ryan seldom used the right
excepting for defensive purposes. That
left of his wore an opponent down
gradually and the finishing touches
were put on him with straight right
tn the chin after all danger of IL return
blow mad been passed
Ryan never had a more studious pu-
pill than Charley kid" MCCOY, who
was Ryan's sparring mate for some
time ana had an excellent chance of
figuring Ryan out at close range. Ne
Coy learned so much of the Ryan
style ana had so much native shrewd-
ness himself that it wasn't long be-
fore the pupil was as good or Il little
better than the master Mccoy had il
figured out so well that when he got
"a chance at q nice purse to battle
Ryan after they had split. that he
asked Ryan To handle him with a lit
tie care as he Gidn't want To get beat
IN too badly For once the mighty
fox was thrown off his guard and be-
lieving Mccoy to be the easiest sort
of victim, failed to train carefully.
The result was that when Mccoy
got the half-bal<ed Ryan into the Mas
peth ring with him he started pump
ing that Ryan left into the Ryan an
atomy and in 4 short time Ryan real
lied that not only was he against a
wonderfully improved Fighter but was
in for Il serious whipping as well.
Ryan tried his best to uuttall and out
general the crafty Kid" that night,
but Mccoy, having played his cards
in matChless style, merely kept on
smiling and smashing Ryan's nose
with that long left. Ryan fumed ana
iaNed and swore all the time he was
getting his trimming and at the end
" Is rounds. Ryan was completely
under cubjection and the kid" was
credited with Il knockout.
Great left hands are rare, though
most of the big fighters of the day
are credited with possessing them.
Willie Ritchie and Packey Mcfarland
undoubtedly have wonderful weapons
on the southpaw side and Johnny Kill
banc. the feather champion. has an
other that is about as near perfection
as II would he possible to find one.
Eddie McGoorty's left hook is an cdu-
Gated blow that is unbeatable IL the
Oshkosh man is in good condition To
work IT and among the big men the
late Luther Mccarty hvd a left paw
that was getting To- b. fully the equal
of the one that Jim Corbett used to
sport with such telling effect. The
man with the good left usually is a
20 per cent better fighter than the
man whC relies almost solely upon a
heavy right

team without II pinch hitter would hc
like a ship without "A rudder. but how
about "A football team without n pinch
kicker?
Everybody knows about the pinch
hitter who horns into the batting or
der with the bases cloggcd and hits
one into the left field bleachers for
three bases. OF course he more Of
ten takes three healthy swings ut the
ball and sits down.
Certain football teams have pinch
kickers whose only duty during tn"
season is to go into the game and
boot the ball over the bar by the
dropkick route when the team is UNI
able to advance 1t an inch by other
tactics. Several times within the past
few years Michigan has been scored
on in precisely this style.
But does anyone remember Of Michi-
gan ever scoring u goal by the drop
kick route? IL may have happened
but not in recent years. in spite OF
the fact that certain young men full
Of ambition ana possessed of lusty
dropkicliing toes report to Coach Iost

"j-yard line and scored "a field goal
The memory of the dropiick 10y when
Penn came within n mace OF dcfcat-
ing Michigan on Ferry field two years
ago, is still fresh.
Yost doesn't use dropliickers. With

MACK NOT SURE
TEAM WILL WIN
Bender, Plank and Bush Main
stays for Worlds Series

Philadelphia. Pa, oct, Connie
Mack, manager of the Athletics, is far
from being optimistic over winning the
worlds series.
If Connie ever could be accused OF
having "a yellow streak. it might be
said he is nightly afraid. but as the
yellow streak is not there. Connie is
not afraid he is just skeptical.
All of this was learned today when
Mack unbosomed himself TO close
friend Mack fears what may be done
to his pitchers. He is fairly confident
that Bender and Plank will deliver
when necessary but he realizes he can
not place the entire burden OF the Sc
RES upon them. The balance of the
work will be done by Shawkcy and
Bush with the chances Of a large por-
ton OF it falling upon Bush under GER
tain conditions. MI this week Connie
/ roposcs TO work with Bush perfect
ing, If possible, his slow bah. Connie
acknowledges that a slow ban is "a
pippin, but, for some reason during
the season Bush has appeared To have
been afraid 10 use it.
Houek Not to Be Used
Baron Houck will not appear i'm the
worlds series. His game Saturday in
Boston decided that.
1t is a safe bet he will not he with
the Athletics next season.
one of the surprising things is that
Connie may break up that wonderful
100000 infield. Mclnnis probably will
not play IN all the games lie does
not hit when hit is required. Al
though his batting average is grca;
his record FOR making hits with men
ON bases is not as good. During the
worlds scrics it is likely that Harry
Davis will Doe substituted for McInnis
when men are ON bases and a hit is
needed
lHpp will do all OF the catching cX-
ccp, when Bender Is on the firing line.
Schaug will do the receiving Tor Bend-
a. but only for Bender. The fact that
New York won the toss docs not please
Mack over well. He had his plans
all made To take the first game before
home and friendly crowd. While this
is disadvantage he figures the Sec
and game will he easier TO capture.
with the first game IN New York,
Connie figures that he will have TO
put in his strongest pitcher and at the
same time may have To take defeat.
