Edward W. Smith, the well-known
Chicago referee, has penned an in
teresting article in which he says
that it is hard to rate boxers on an
efficiency basis.
Efficiency is the thing that counts
in these modern days of figuring
everything on a percentage basis"
Smith says. "And there is no good
reason why the fighters should not
be classified in much the same way
that an employer of huge numbers
of men Classics them-on an eff
cheney basis.
Suppose we say that a man gets
100 per cent, or the limit of excel
lence, for the points he shows in the
ring. The trouble would be how to
figure out the points Why not give
him 80 1-3 per cent. each for game
ness, aggressiveness and consisten-
cy? These are the things that make
champions and cause champions to
hold their jobs.
Now, IL you classified the men of
each division of the weights accord
ing to this, how many fighters would
one find that could be said to be 100
per cent. efficient? Mighty few on
this basis or any other for the matter
of that The chief thing that sticks
out when one attempts to get a list
of efficient ringsters now paradine
the rings of the country is the sur
prisingly small size of it, no matter
how you may plan to let a lot of
them in on it.
This is a stiff test. this thing of
making a man show that he is game
and aggressive and at the same time
consistent. It's the acid test. Let's
peer at the bantamweight class.
There's a champion here that can be
said to have everything. for Johnny
Coulon is the ideal fighter when he
is right and well. So is his chief
rival in the division, Kid Williams,
of Baltimore. The pair illustrate

ENGLISH GOLF COURSES

II If Francis Ouimet, open champion
of the golf links of the United States,
carries out his announced intention
of crossing the Atlantic next spring
to compete for the amateur cham
pionship of the British Isles he will
be welcomed for two reasons. On the
score of courtesy. admiration and
curiosity to see the juvenile wonder
that beat two of Britain's greatest
opponents of ST. Andrews game, the
American boy will be welcomed. But
he will be doubly welcomed because
Britain's amateur talent is sanguine
of having a sportsmanlike revenge
for the humiliation young Ouimet put
upon British golf last September at
Brookline.
Over the wine and walnuts the real
inside dope is that the front rank of
British amateur golf does not take

on two theories, one of which ~ thai
Ouimet will have acquired some go1f

w 'Dreamland is the world OF
the forgotten past Of the hu-
man race"
Such is the remarkable and wholly
novel theory advanced by an eminent
German psychologist, Prof Moritz
Pfister, who AYERS that our dreams,
while sometimes relating to current
events, are mainly memories Of hap
penings in previous states Of existence.
You see, it is like this. Each one Of
US according TO Prof. Pfister's theory
has lived through long series Of lives,
and in them has had a great variety
Of experiences, pleasant and otherwise.
In our dreams we go back. to themo
and reenact scenes which may have
been actual occurrences thousands or
even tens Of thousands Of years ago.
Visits Made in Dreams.
which in this life we have never seen.
We meet people whom in this life we
have never met, and yet they do not
seem to us strangers. This is because
both persons and places, in such in
stances belong to a past that is not
Of this life, but Of a periOd-perhaps
a long periOd-pTeviOus thereto.
For the very reason that it is not Of
this life, we have no conscious recOl-
lectiOns in our waking moments Of
places and people belonging to that
period. While awake we are living in
the present even in respect to our
memories; but in sleep our dream
thoughts 90 back-ofteu so far back
that the dreams themselves are mys-
terious. pulling and obscure. It is
