wonderful wallop, as usual. but in
Leonard he found a good man, a
boxer more than fighter.
The way We look at the game we
see a great difference from a boxer
and a tighter" A boxer is q fighter
who does not trust in his strength
and hard hitting to put away a man
by a lucky punch, but studies his adj
vcrsary; is attentive all the time, and
tries to beat him out by cleverness
more than by brutal wallop in the
jaw
A fighter is a man that enters the
ring trusting more on strength
than cleverness and brains. Dundee,
for example, is the real boxer, intelli-
gent, clever, attentive. Kline is the
real fighter, with the hard, strong
wallop. Whenever Patsy has the
good luck to land his tremendous left,
it is good night for he who gets it..
IS. o. q Co" would not dare to try it.
And every fighter that steps in the
ring against Kline seems to fear his
punch and keeps an eye on that ter
rib.e left.
But we believe the wallop cannot
earn Kline the championship for the
featherweight division. Too many
clever boxers" are up against him.
Dundee, for example, would stop
Kline from winning the featherweight
crown, because Kline is not a boxer
and Dundee is.
Two men in the sporting game are
alike as two drops of water-Patsy
Kline and Jackie Clark. They are
also good friends and admirers of
each other. They have the same
qualities - strength, aggressiveness,
gameness and daring. But still,
To al wing fttta 1itiae, M
cessary in a rider, lacks the speed
the final jump that wins the cham
pionships. His sprint is simply grand
after the five, ten and fifteen miles.
Patsy, in boxing, has the great wal
lop, but lacks the qualities necessary
to a fighter to win the championship
laurels-the boxing ability.
In concluding, we advise Patsy to
care less for his wallop and think
more of boxing; to be less aggressive,
but more clever and conservative.
hope after all that our prognostic may
not be true. S. o. & Co.
To the rescue of rs. o. & Co."

J. P. NJ:

one of those crazy bike fans" and
hope you will allow me to express
what I think of IS. o. & Co." and
of the bike fans in general. I read
in the Monday evening issue of The
Star the article written by "a Girl"
and it is surprising to me the way
she expresses herself in behalf of IS.
o. & Co." and the "Frenchy Corpor-
alton" accusing them of being too
patriotic for their respective coun-
try. I do not want to argue what
Italy has ever done for rs. o. & Co."
or has done for the world in general.
1t takes too much space, and, then,
what is the use? People with brains
know all. so it does not pay to boost
for any country in particular.
Now, J. +. N, you know better. 1t
is a matter of taste and sympathy in
sport and not patriotism, and, then.
we must consider all that IS. o. x
Co." claims is true and fair. 1t
could not do any harm If their spe-
cial sympathy was with Moretti and
Verri, the Italians. l suppose that
when "a Girl knows that | am
son of Italy, and still my sympathy
is with Goullet the Australian, she
may think | am a traitor to the red,
white and green or to this grand
country of which l am a citizen. But
take it from me, she is mistaken, and |
think 1t Is time to cut out such stupid
end peevish argument about nation
atty You served her right, j. p. N,
in giving her such a nice and ade-
quate answer and praising IS. o. &
Co.'S well-written correspondence.
Yes, indeed, such correspondence
pleased thousands of readers, being
very fair. As for me, I could not go
to bed nights until 7 had enjoyed
Sport Topics of The Star.
You know, ]. p. N, 1t would not
be any sport at all If all the fans
should boost for American riders.
A few words to IS. o. & Co"
Please go easy with "Frenchy Cor
poration." You too easily get their
goat in mentioning the famous and
true history of the challenge OF Bar
letta." Certainly, 1t was some defeat
for the Frenchmen. Respectfully
yours, RALPH BARILLARI.
