strange to relate. Promoters used
to believe that men liked to sneak
away to wild and unknown places
to witness a boxing contest.
They figured that the wilder the
atmosphere. about the event, the
greater the appeal to the primitive
instincts.
That was years ago before the
higher intellects became interested
in pugilism. Out in Shelby just
now they have the primitive in
clinations to long to see heavy
weights pummel each other, but
they do not seem to have the money
to buy the tickets.
Close to the centers Of civiliza-
ton they not only have the desire
to see boxing but they also like
to buy high-priced seats.
A few years ago, when the
worlds high mark in pugliism was
set in Jersey City, there were not
enough $50 ringside seats to fill the
demand.
The prices at Shelby are from
$40 to $50, and there is an alarm
ing scarcity of applicants. 1t is
too far away from Wall Street and
the United States Mint.

CONNIE BELIEVES RUTH
FAR FROM INVlNClBLE

Connie Mack is one Of those who
favor passing Ruth at the critical
moment. He says his pitchers will
walk Ruth If necessary, and will
pitch to him If the situation war
rants it.
Mack believes that a low, slow
curve ball will fool Ruth, and when
pitchers have sufficient control they
will find Ruth like they have other
great hitters.
"Why, Big Dan Brouthers and Ed
Delehantv could hit a ball as hard
as Ruth" added Connie. land there
were pitchers in their days who
could fool them. This was especially
so in the case Of John Clarkson,
who used to wear the uniform of
the Chicago club back in 1887 and
'88. Tim Keefe, who was with the
Giants in 'S8 and 'S9, used to subdue
the great Detroit club of sluggers. "

ARTHUR HAVERS
TAKES TWO
PUTS

The golf of Arthur Havers, the
new British open champion, runs to
consistency and steadiness rather
than to brilliancy and brides,
Johnny Anderson points out that he
is one Of the few golfers who are
content to make sure Of two puts
to green.
OF course, he gratefully accepts
the turn in fortune which occa
sionally gets his ball down in one
but he plays safely for two puts
rather than going boldly for one.
Anderson says he approaches with
the feeling that he has pretty
definite idea of where his ball will
end it's journey, and that idea ID
somewhere on the green where two
puts looks reasonably certain.

Leonard Plays Golf
as Part Of His
Training

Benny Leonard is playing
golf at his training camp in the
Catskills. Old-timers look with
suspicion on . fighter who re-
CARDS the game as q means Of
exercise in preparation for .
fight.
They point to Jimmy Wilde,
who played thirty-six holes on
the day before he fought Villa.
Golf didn't beat Wilde. Villa
took care Of that.
As far as Leonard is con-
cerned, he is too smart a boxer
to do anything in his training
hours which will not be bene-
fetal to him. He probably gets
more real mental relaxation on
the links than in any Of his
other training stunts. Not
only that, but he says that it is
great training for his eye.
