Five important lessons in boxing
posed for THE EVENING JOURNAL,
by Johnny Kilbane, featherweight
champion Of the world. and his man
ager, Jimmie Dunn, one OF the great
est boxing instructors in the world.
The left hook is one Of the most inn
portant blows in boxing. Throw the
whole weight OF the body into the
blow, hitting from the toes. The arm
itself should be moved very little.
The left jab is effective only when
the entire weight of the body Is
thrown forward from the toes.
The right cross is used after left
hook. The body is left in a position
TO strike hard and effectively.
In blocking the right cross turn the
opponents blow just enough TO make
him miss. This will throw him of his
balance and leave an opening to
counter with the right.
II left hook cannot be side-step-
ped push the blow aside slightly with
the right. This should leave an OPP
ening to counter with the left.

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
MIDDLETowN, Del. March The
boys OF the Middletown High School
are already discussing the chances TOR
putting a winning baseball team on
the diamond during the coming sea-
son. The school appears to have the
material to develop one Of the best
baseball teams that has ever repre-
scented the institution-bid bidding fair to
outrival even tho famous 1913 team
which lost only one game. A large
percentage Of veterans Of last years
team will report when practice be-
gins, and several new stars from the
Freshman class will also be given
trials. The captain for the nine will
be elected at special meeting 10 De
held either this week or the week iol-
lowing.
All OF last years team is intact at
the present time, not man havins
been lost through graduation. How
ever. before practice begins. one or
two OF the players may decide not to
try for the team on account OF their
studies.
Behind the bat, the Blue and Whito
will depend mostly on Frank Jones
who played IN several Of last year
contests, and made good each time
Marshall Whitlock. a brother of Dory
Whitlock, Of 1914 fame, Will also DC
out for the position, and should ne

This infeld was one OF the
fastest on any high school team in
the state. Meyers, who only played a
few games last year, is sure of his
job this season, as his showing last
year was such that II is hard to find
a man to beat him. Bob George and
Claude Fouracre, at second and third,
seem to have their positions olinched.
Sam Berkman, brother of Alec Berk-
man, also Of the famous 1914 team, is
trying TO duplicate his brothers feats
at shortstOp. and should he succeed,
will win the position in wallS-away.
In the outer garden, Allen Johnson,
Monk Mcdowell, and Cy Lockwood, OF
last years nine, will make a hard
fight for their positions. Several mem
bers of the freshman class may make
a try for one Of these positions, but
in order TO become a regular they will
have 40 show class.
Taken together the members who
expect to make up the Blue and White
team this season. appear to have the
stuff" Judging from their last sea-
sons performances.
From the manner in which they are
taking up baseball this season. it is
fair prediction to state that the won
