Firpo's Defiance.

Firpo's Defiance.
Give me, we'll. say q year or two,
And watch old Argentine come through.
They say I'm raw. but 50 were an
Who started out to climb the wall.
And r,vnsss is no killing blight
For one who's out to fni the light,
Who's system holds the boxing breed
OF power. toughness, youth and speed.
For I can give and take a lot,
And that's the essence Of the plot.
In regard to one Luis Angel
Firpo, from the land where the
ghost of the plesiosaurus still
haunts Patagonian lakes, IL is now
mainlya matter of taking on the
long grind that leads to boxing
skill. The raw, crude material is
there to go long way under in
telligent guidance. Some smart
manager might turn Firpo into a
young mint by having him box
about three hours a day for a year
under skillful coaching, permitting
him an occasional fight on the way
up. There might easily be enough
raw material there to win a title
II it is only nodded as 1t should be.
Outside of the above. which is
100 per cent necessary, there is al
ways the problem of coordination,
instinct and the essential mental
and muscular reactions under fire.
II Firpo hasn't the natural knack,
the barrier may be impossible. but
1t will be that much higher. But
no matter what he has, he must
build upon the fundamentals which
he now lacks.
Full of Juice.
What with the return of Babe
Ruth, the Tunney-Greb meeting
and the intercollegiate at Cam
bridge. Mays closing program will
be full of juice. These three events
alone are enough to keep the pot
boiling quite merrily.
We look for the Tunney-Greb
contest to be full. of FIRE. where. the
firmly established light-heayy-

lures in the direction Of Carpen-

Freedom Of expression whether it be through

definite limits OF indecency beyond which

ObsceHity IS the test OF the printed page. There
are very definite standards in the public mind to
what = evil and what is not. The drawing OF the
line in publications is easy matter
It Is not easy in the film world where sugges-

YOUR HEALTH -

cease vigorous exercise and sit in a
cool or drafty place before your body
can readjust itself. your blood will
be too quickly cooled in the dilated
blood-vessels and you will become
chilled and your resistance will be
lowered.
You would not think Of putting
cold water into an overheated en-

light undergarments, depending upon
overcoats and wraps TO protect them
when they go out of doors.
You should get ample rest and
sleep. Eight hours out of "a is a
safe average. We should get sufic-

rifice our sleeping time TO gain 1t.
Do not overeat. Overeating is
absolutely injurious. Eat slowly
and enjoy your food. Meat once a
day is usually sufficient. Let your
diet be a mixed diet-that is, a diet
consisting of vegetables, cereals,
milk and its products, as well as
meat. Prefer the coarse foods, such
as whole wheat and rye, etc. Do
not eat heavily when overtired or
when mentally over-wrought.
Wash your face and hands before
each meal. When possible, rinse
your mouth before and after meals.
Battle frequently. Keep your teeth,
gums and tongue clean.
See that your bowels move regu-
