Brown further states that he will stop
Mike or get stopped in the attempt,
and he does not figure that Mike can
stop him.
Three weeks ago the fans would
laugh at a Brown-Mike bout. but
Browns kayo of Young Rivers
brought him out OF the slump and
today Brown stands among the best
preliminary boys in the city. He is
training faithfully and hard. Yes
terday afternoon he worked 10 fast
rounds and quit fresh.
If confidence wins fights Brown
has enough to beat a champion. He
knows Mixes ability having dropped
under Mixes broadside a few months
ago. and when he says he can beat
Mike he knows what he is going UP
against.
Mike is working with Neff and
Brown is working with Alger. They
both get plenty of work, but from all
appearances Brown carries a harder
right than Mix and shoots it
straight. Mike is natural fighter
and Brown is a clever fighter Both
carry kayoes and both are tough.
Mikes followers point to his record
of 10 straight kayoes and his tearing
in tactics that knock his opponents
off their feet. On the other hand
Browns slashing defeat of Young
Rivers was a well planned attack
that followed a series of hard rights,
While Mike usually drops his oppon-
ent with a single blow. True Mike
fights all the time, but he has never
been forced to extend himself in any
fight since he first started in the
game. He may be much better than
he has yet shown and if he is Brown
will be in for a hard run. He prob
ably held back when he fought Young
Douglas. but fighting as he did
against Douglas he would fall vic
tim to Browns right in quick order
Young Romo will meet Wildcat
Johns in four round number and

IMPORTED TO BATTLE ALCER

Second Round; BroIOn Says He Will K. o.
Mike Monday Night; Els And Mack SpauU
To Meet At Miami On February 2I

THE best boy yet imported to box
Billy Alger,' is Tommy Dixons YER
dlct after watching Chet workout
yesterday afternoon.
Neff boxed two rounds with Young
Mike and two rounds with Ralph
Pena then went through his rope
skipping, shadow boxing and setting
up exercises.
Tommy says Chet shows more class
than any boxer who has yet been
matched with Alger. Tommy is an
Old head at the game and knows the
flnesroints OF boxing. When he says
Neff and Alger will give the fans
the best fight ever staged in this sec
tom we can figure its going to be
some battle.
Dixon watched Neff while he was
training at the Eighth street arena
yesterday afternoon and this is how
he sizes him up: "Neff has footwork
70 spare. / never saw boy handle
his feet and hands with such ease.
Netf can hit hard as he showed in
hbS workout with Pena. He put lots
Of steam behind his punches and
proved he can stand a hard blow
when Pena raped him on the chin.
He as exceptionally clever and has
oANttN iNcOs
Years OF experience. I don't
know how long Neff has been fight
ing but the polish he shows is not
acquired over night. He shows that
he has had experience in his clever
ness in avoiding Pena's blows. Mike
gave him a good workout in two
rounds and Mike learned whole
lot
Right now I want to tell you that
Neff and Alger, and Mike and Brown
will be two real fights if Brown
fights. understand Brown is go
ing to- fight his best and il he does
he viii give Mike a battle. But l
have my eyes set on the Neff and
Alger fight that is going to be big.
/ WOULD hesitate to pick a winner if
I Was privileged to do so. AS /
said before Neff is the best boy vet
matched with Alger and If Alger
beats him there is no 'disputing his
ability. Alger is no longer a small
town champion. He has ability. but
lacks experience and he is getting
that fact. Marshall was good boy,
but Neff is so much better that they
do not compare at all. Alger knows
what it means 10 beat Neff and look
for Him to do some hard fighting"
Tommy looks 'em over and he
knows whereof he speaks. This is
not Neff's first fight in Phoenix and
tho local fans know what he can do
Anger worked at the Coliseum yes
terday going three rounds with Ira
O'Neil. two rounds each with Brown
and Romo, Billy is in good condi-
ton as his weekly fights keep him
from going stale. He will work

is a strenuous sport.

BASKETBALL Is strenuous sport.
If not played to excess it is q
most healthful exercise.
However. 1t can be easily overdone
and Immediately becomes Injurious
rather than beneficial.
Too many basketball games played
in week or in a year have a detri-
mental effect on the physique of an
athlete.
The big mistake in basketball as a
sport comes in early youth. Most of
the high schools and amateur teams
play a schedule that is entirely too
long.
A great many Of the high schools
start the basketball season about
Nov. /, and do not end it until around
the first OF April.
During recent meeting Of promi-
nent western coaches. figures COM
piled by freshman medical examin-
ers, showed that a great many Of
the freshman athletes are suffering
from enlarged or athletic hearts.
Basketball is more strenuous than
football. baseball, track or tennis.
More athletic hearts have been dis
covered among college freshman
branches of sport combined
Long basketball schedules unques-
tionably burn out" the player be-
fore he is safely through his youth.
Few high school basketball stars are
good for more than two years on col
lege varsity teams.
Two games week is plenty for
the youthful basketball stars. More
than that Is injurious.
NORMAL WINS TITLE GAME
Coach Coopers Nofmalites took
the first of the three game champion
ship series from the Gilbert five ct
Tempe Saturday afternoon by the
score of 27 to 20.
Gilbert gave the Normal boys the
hardest game of the season and in
the first half overwhelmed Cooper's
team at shooting baskets. The first
period ended with the score IA to 12
in favor of Gilbert. But the Nor
malites showed a burst of speed in
the next period and gained is points
while the Gilbert boys were unable
to pass the half dozen mark.
The snappy passing and team
work OF the Tempe five featured the
game. Gilbert played a fast game,
but the team work could not COM
pare with the opposition. Tempe
got off to bad start. but they kept
the basket warm when they once
got started.
Jess McCoombs of Phoenix high

both sides moving. The game was
particularly free from fouls.
