CHUCK ROUNDS
INTO SHAPE

It was busy afternoon at the Chuck
Virgins training quarters Wednesday
as the big fellow went through a sfiff
routine Of training for his match
before the Elks' Club at Tom
hnson Hall Monday night. The 10
cal light heavyweight worked before a
big audience Wednesday and he went
through full program. First he skipped
the rope, then shadow boxed, pulled at
the weights and then took on three spar
ring partners for three rounds each.
Patsy McMahon was his first opponent
and Patsy did well against the light
heavy. He gave Chuck just the right
kind of workout for speed and boxing
Next came Tommy McDuff, whom Wig
gins treated kindly because of T0mmy's
light weight. In a finishing skirmish.
however, Chuck cut loose to some ex-
tent with Greek Brown and the spectators
saw plenty Of action Virgins appears
to be in fine trim and apparently means
to go his best before the home city folks
Monday. His left shoulder bothers him
to some extent, but he believes he will
be able to work the ailment out with
a couple Of more days training.

Basketball Too Strenuous
for High School Girls

DES MONIES, Iowa, Feb. 2.-Basket-
ball, as the sole athletic endeavor Of the
high school girl, is receiving a rebuff at
the hands Of Miss Sara Given Of the WON
mems physical education department of
Drake University. Miss Given, while CON
tending that basket ball, If played in
moderation, helps to build up the phys
tcal woman claims that the sport, If
played to excess and without variation
with other milder athletic work, is harm
ful to the growing girl.
The assertion is based upon the theory
that basketball is a violent sport tend
ing to impair heart action In younger
girls. Miss Given says the heart cannot
ordinarily adapt itself to such an unusual
and sudden requirement as basket bah
presents when not preceded by milder
forms of physical endeavor.
