With plans Undertaking. through
which boxing viii soon be recognized
as a major sport in our leading uni
versities and colleges the ancient
pastime surely appears TO have fu-
ture most roseate in a new field.
INTERCOLLEGIATE boxing nourished
by a spirit of clean competition and
the fervid but friendly rivalry which
marks big football matches should
establish a unique notch for itself
i'm the domain of sports in this cOun-
Try.
Colleges Produce Great Athletes.
IL has long been held that there
ars scores of college athletes who
could make mince-meat of profes-
sionaI boxing champions were they
inclined 10 lower themselves to the
level of the prize ring Perhaps the
greatest ringmen have never appear
ed i'm public owing 10 the notoriety
attending such a display of the night
ing qualities. This enigmatical ques-
tion will now bc definitely settled
without tho necessity for profess
sional appearance of tho college ath-
Ittc. The boxing meets between our
leading institutions of learning will
reveal the calibcr of boxers who can
ind other means of making a living
than punching peoples faccs-no
matter how expert they might be i'm
that art
In comparison with modern ring
mon three college men come 10 mind
as interesting athletic types for such
an analysis. They are Ted Coy, Ed
die Hart and the late Tom Shevlin.
Coy and Hart were Super-mcn.
Who could not Ted Coy have
whipped were IT possible for him to
inject ass much diabolical energy in
TO a boxing match as ne did i'm that
football game with Princeton when
ne twice smashed his way almost
the length of the grid ron through
the Tiger defense for touchdowns?
And how about Eddie Hart? This
celebrated Princeton captain was six
feet two and weighed 210 pounds
He could run 100 yards in eleven
seconds in moleskins Hart was
perhaps the strongest man that ever
attended any college. He had hands
which never suffered their vice like
"Trip 10 be broken. He handled 9TH
or men opposed TO him as if they
we're pygmies. People who know
Eddie Hart and his gorilIa-Iike
