HOOVER PLEADS FOR
RED CROSS ROLL CALL
Says Resources Must be Annu-
ally Replenished for All
Emergencies.

Herbert Hoover, Secretary OF Com
merce, in President Hardings Cabinet.
has issued the following statement re-
lative to the annual Red Cross roll call !:
IAN appalling situation OF suffering,
involving hundreds Of thousands OF
people who have been forced to flee
from their homes in the Near East
and to seek refuge in lands already
burdened with care, has emphasized to
the people of this country that the
American Red Cross is our National
Emergency Fund with which to meet
great crises in disaster. The accenua-
tion of the fact is the greater in that
the particular calamity now appealing
10 humanity has fallen just in advance
of the American Red Cross annual
Roll Call.
THE resources of the American Red
Cross must be annually replenished
through the Roll Call. This year the
summons is seconded by a concrete
emergency of the kind that is ever
liable to be preciptated upon the
world 1t is impossible for the Red
Cross to be dependent on a public APP
peal for specific objects, because when
emergency and disaster face us we
have no time to wait until funds can
be raised. The Red Cross is our ever
ready agency for responding to call OF
calamity the moment the alarm is
sounded.
THE American Red Cross should
have a minimum membership of ter
million in order that its reserves may
he equal to our domestic and our for
eign emergencies in humane purposes
In the light of my experience in relief
work throughout the world 1 feel it 8
duty TO express my personal hope thai
the people of American will show Their
confidence in their Red Cross in this
Roll Call in unmistakable terms. Lets
all get behind the Red Cross and give
it ten million members for its grea
work.
Herbert Hoover"

Because the seminaries are attempt

many standing around a ring who are
competent in every way to judge but
who are not permitted to hold license,
while inside the ring one sees crudities
OF this sort.

almost forty years ago. judging was a

There Is come satisfaction that the

Whether or not one agrees with their
policy there is satisfaction n finding
that policy exists and is being strlctly
followed.
However if the dog game is TO exist
we must have judges who really know
dogs. The old saying that charity be-
gins at home might be applied to the
dogs by giving them the assurance that
they will receive little In the form OF
competent men to pass on them.

ponent for Dempsey in a title match.
McAuliffe qualities his assertion by voic-
ing doubt as to Becketts ability to, win
from Dempsey When Beckett and Car
pentier met in Hoborn Stadium. Lon
don, December 4. 1919, the writer. who
was at the rngside, failed to see any
thing in the Briton that would warrant
him getting into the ring with TIM
worlds champion Carpenter had
Beckett on the floor for the full count
in 81 seconds of the first round. Beckett,
slow as an OK, physically and mentally,
never landed blow on the Frenchman
and looked like the veriest sort of a.
novice.
When asked why he did not do more
fighting when the bout started Beckett
said he was "just filing in" He meant
that he was merely warming up and did
not think Carpenter would do any hard
hitting for round or two.
The fact that Beckett was later
stopped by Frank Moran is sufficient
comment on the British champions

Still If English promoters will meet
Dempsey's terms he doubtless will con-
sent to put Beckett to sleep.
CIfnchfng Evil.
Nal Doyle, of Allentown, Pa. COM
menting on the clinching evil, calls at
tention to the fact that the rules of the
New York boxing law are contradic-
tory. One rule provides that judges
must deduct points from a boxer who
persistently clinches. Another clause
declares that the referee must not put
his hands on a boxer except on failure to
obey the command to break. Thus, while a
boxer may be penalized for clinching.
yet the referees order to break would
by inference give permission to clinch.
The Queensberry rules simply said :
There shall be no holding" but pro-
vided no penalty. The result was there
was plenty of holding. Doyle declares
the remedy is to do away with clinching
entirely. He writes:
IF a. boxer was prohibited from
ciinching. he'd have to use his head. his
arms and his legs to get out of reach
and when he got close enough, IL he was
q better mixer than his opponent, could
rrive him back. or make him break
ground. II he wasn't, he'd have to box
az long range and keep his opponent
from getting into close quarters. Dis
qualification after one warning and no
money could be incorporated In the ar
t'cles OF agreement. making it binding.
A hard head and leechlike grip won't
make a champion. The weight won't
make much difference. either--a lighter
man can outpolnt heavier nan. II he
has the science and speed"

THEY WERE CHAMPIONS
No. 8--Martin J. Sheridan

Martin J. Sheridan was a champion
OF champions. He won more champion
ships than any track and field man this
country has ever produced. Among his
titles we're Olympic. National. Canadian
and Metropolitan. And he probably
established as many worlds records as
any other athlete In modern times.
With the discus he had no equal. and
at throwing other weights, vaulting and
jumping ne had few superiors. And all
though big man. weighing nearly 200
pounds, he could run far and fast. He
often stepped 100 yards in 10 4-5 Sec
onds, and George Underwood often saw
him run a mile in 4 :55. Besides hold
ing all sorts OF titles in specia. events
he was three times the all around title
holder. And with the exception of Ray
Ewry, the once noted standing jumper.
he scored more points in Olympic games
than any other athlete In the world.
Martins greatest feat probably was
his victory with the discus in the O;ym-
pic games in Athens In 1906. There he
hurled the saucer shaped missile over
the walls OF the stadium into an ad-
Joining river.
Sheridan was born in the County
Mayo, Ireland. thirty seven years ago.
He came to this country whiie still in
his teens and Immediately became in
terested in athletics. His brother Dick
was a champion and a member of the
Pastime A. c. at the time and Martin
Joined him at the club. In his first
competition with the discus he was
successful. beating among others John
Flanagan. In his second competition
he not only beat Flanagan who was the
champion but established q new worlds
record. From then until a year be-
fore he died in 1919. Sheridan was con-
sidered the greatest athlete In America.
And he was as popular as he was
famous.
