LEONARD IS REAL
PATRIOT, ENL|STS
IN AVIATION CORPS

In these days of boxers wao think
Of nothing except the size of the
purse they are to get and managers
and promoters who are even more
a%varicious. it is refreshing to read of
the case of Benny Leonard, onc of
the greatest lightweights in the
world, who has dismissed the idea of
fat purses and volunteered 10 serve
with Uncle Sam.
Leonard will join the aviation
corps within a few days, being the
first professional athlete Of note to
answer the call to the COlOrS.
Considering that Leonard can make
several thousands Of dollars a month
in the boxing game, his enlistment is
truly patriotic.
1t recalls the case Of Johnny Wilde,
the British hyweight, thrice rejected
by recruiting officers on account of his
size, but who did not give up and fin
ally was accepted in the British army.
More Wildes, Carpenters and Leo
nards would not hurt the boxing
game.

Learns More On Big League
Than By Playing Game With Minors

Can a young ballplayer learn more
by sitting on the bench of a big
league club than by playing in the
minors?
The question is one which troubles
managers every year and was sug
gested at this time by the resolution
Of Fred Mitchell, the new Cub boss,
not to farm out Maurice Sclick, a
young %outtielder, but to keep him on
the bench and teach him baseball as
the Cubs play it.
There are few George Sisters in

the big leagues, few players who are
able to graduate from a low class
league or from a college into the ma
jors and play good baseball. For that
reason every year many young prom
Using players go back to the bushes
for more seasoning"
The question is whether these play
ers would be more finished ballplayers
il they sat on tie bench in the big
leagues.
McGraw and Connie Mack, two Of
the smartest managers in baseball,
believe that a y0ungster should learn
to play big league baseball from a big
league bench.
