Frank Flournoy, matchmaker of
the Madison Square Garden, has con-
firmed the report that New York fans
Will have a chance to see Bob Fitz-
simmons in action the night of the
Brennan Firpo battle, March IL.
Flournoy lays no claim to medium
1Stic powers. The Fitz who Will do
battle week after next will be Robert
jr.. son of the famous Ruby Bob. His
opponent will be the former amateur
heavyweight champion of this district,
Charley McKenna.
Dabbling for Some Time.
Young FitZsimmons has been dab
bling at the pugilistic game off and
Oh for some time now and has never
made much of dent in the surface
of pugilism. He is clever and a fine.
clean fellow, but that lets him out, or
has to date. He firmly believes that
the old man is watching over him
and that in good time he will be a
champion. He will he just as soon as
the original FitZ can get his famous
left and right wallop transferred
from ethereal regions to the shoul-
derS of his son.
If there is any spiritualistic sharp
in the world who can perform this
miracle mine of gold will be at his
feet, provided he-or she-makes a
fifty-fifty agreement with Young Bob
for all his future fights. For, If en-
dowed with the hefty hitting power
of the father, the son could perform
the following feats offhand. He
could beat Gene Tunney and Harry
Greb to whisper the same night in
the same ring. He could make Tom
my Gibbons think battleship had
fallen on him. He could show Floyd
Johnson and Firpo the path to OBJ
livion and finally he could make
Dempsey.
But what might be and what are.
are two different things. Charley
McKenna. the former amateur cham
pion. whom Fitz meets, is type OF
fighter very similar to his prospec-
tive opponent He has an interesting
style. but is much more the boxer
than the knocker out. Scientifically.
therefore. the bout should be of great
interest to those who like a clean
display of the art of hit, stop and get
away.
Out in Jersey there are hints of
trouble in store for Firpo. 1t IL
claimed he has proved ungrateful to
the man who did more than any one
to get the Argentinian started In
Newark. If that is true Luis would
do we'll to make a settlement, since
Grand Duke Muldoon can be pressed
too far even if he does appear to be
bent upon seeing Firpo and Brennan.
There is also a Newark story that he
faced about on an agreement with a
local club TO meet a heavyweight.
Can you gues. how many pounds
Jess Willard has taken off since he
started on his exhibition tour? Just
three, according to a western report.
The exercise is fine. but the hotel
menus are too tempting and Jess isn't

Tips on Playing Basket Ball;
Correct Rule interpretations
by ED THORP-

TRAINING. Before player
starts the season it is well
to receive a thorough med
ical examination. The reason tor
this precaution is obvious. 1t is pa
thetic to note the harm that results
from a neglect of this. Only in this
way can you tell whether or not
YOU are physically sound and able
to indulge in this strenuous sport.
This is especially so if you are
under twenty years of age, for then
there is greater danger of injuring
the heart.
Basket ball will build up boy
who is physically ft-if he trains
faithfully and is not permitted to
overwork. Many inexperienced
coaches work their players too
much by making the practice too
long, too hard and by holding too
many sessions. More teams are
overtrained than are undertrained.
1t is difficult for a coach to rec
ognize when he should ease up on
the workouts. But when players
have gained good physical condi-
ton and have skill the practices
should be cut down. Schedules
should be so arranged as to permit
Of layoff during the season.
@. Has the home team the right
to insist on the visiting team TAX
ing a certain basket?
A. No. The visiting team has the
choice OF baskets for first half. Sec
ond half the teams change baskets.
Q. In a game which is played by
quarters are baskets changed each
quarter?
A. No, only at the commencement
Of the second half.
Q. Is ball put in play as out of
bounds at start of quarter. II 1t
went out Of bounds when time was
up for previous quarter?
