thlN,
THE army and navy boys who
have gone in for boxing are
extremely jealous OF the rcpu-
tations they have earned 50 far IN
ring bouts. We get this from j. j.
Moore, Chicf Mastcr-at- Arms at the
receiving ship barracks AT Bay Ridge.
Mr.. Moore came 10 see us with "a
vigorous protest against the report
that Marty Cross beat Eddie TrcmOly
OF the navy lu a bout AT the bar
racks last week. A. Moore puts ~,
Cross had a downright nerve TO
even claim victory The correct
report OF the bout, according 10
Moore, should read like this;
"Trcmbly, champion mlddlcN eight
/ OF the navy and "A sure conner among
! al the middlowcights Of the country
| cloutcd altogether too hard fur
/ Cross and more than held the lead ~
! every round. In the third round Ed
die shot over "a terrific straight right
hand cross that passed tTuss's jaw
and il took an OF Martys ring gen
eralship TO trim ship, However
| Trembly was very nice and waite,
In the centre OF the ring until MARTY
declared that the atmosphere Na'
clear OF sparkling units, after whicl
Cross very ably gave a good accuun
OF himself for the rest OF the si'
| rounds"
Mr.. Moore added tho navy boasts
OF a crackerja"k featherweight In Jo,
Fischer OF Brooklyn. "He can hole
mis- own with tse best OF them" say
Moore.

A LII sorts of reason were ad-
~ vanced for tho disastrous
slump Of the Giants after their
tremendous early season lead last
year Most OF the reasons given
were contributary causes to the dis
ustcr, but the chief element was the
weakening Of tho pitching staff. That
all the pitchers should break as they
did is not natural, and long before
the season was over | watched day
after day and became convinced that
the fault was not so much bad pitch
ing as bad catching that IS, the
catChers were not working well with
| the pitchers. The catching last year
was careless, sloppy and far below
| major league standard, and II was
small wonder that after time the
! pitchers became discouraged, and
| scarcely appeared to put any heart
| ilto their efforts.
Ii is scarcely fair to any player tc

Smith was the prize which at least
seven major league clubs were striv-

he was in the draft and certain to be

not bid high, and the moment the
youngster was released from the
