Charlpe Ledoux, the Frenchman, and an Italian named Tommy Ryan, from McKeesport, Pa, are the only fighters Goldsten has met since he became champion and both were nominated be- cause they didn't have chance to upset him. Martain will be Godstein's hard est opponent thus far, but his fighting technique consists of lowering his head and leaping in with his arms slashing the air. A left such as Abie's should be able to outscore him all the way. Goldstein is fond of clinching and this trait dulls the attraction of his perfor- lnances.

Carefully Planned Methods Enabled Star Not To

have ended their careers with broken legs. Cobb has suffered less injuries than any player in the game, or any player of his time. The only serious leg | injury he ever suffered was a spralned ankle few years ago. He received this | in game played on a fresh diamond. It was the game that opened the new playing field and the base lines were filled with holes and bumps. Cobb struck one of these bumps while sliding and twisted his ankle. He was out for weeks.
 Cobb never received a serious leg or ankle injury on big league playing fileds. Early in his career he studied out method to prevent accidents Of this kind. He started his slide while going at top speed. He hurled his body into the air and toward the ground at an angle. As soon as he left his feet his body went limp. He relaxed com pletely until he was strengthened out on the ground, sliding toward the base. Then he resumed control of the muscles so that he could throw his body in any direction. But he remained partly re- faxed. There was no tenseness. There fore, there was no injury.
 What Often Happens
 He had learned, or figured it out, that most injuries in baseball come to players who fail to relax. They hesi- tate moment before. starting their slid ing. Then they are uncertain about hitting the dirt. They are tense; the legs are generally stiff; the feet hit the ground; the body is carried with little speed; the speed is not enough to carry the feet and legs forward rapidly-the feet stick and the weight of the body is thrown on the ankles, causing strains or sprains.
 This fault in running bases has brought the careers of many players to permanent close. By failing to relax and by hesitating in their take-off when sliding, the players continually throw their weight on the ankles and this con- stant strain wears out the ankles and slows up the player. The legs are the most important part of any competitive athlete and when the legs go the athlete goes. Few players know how to take care of their legs; Cobb did. While Cobb seemed to be reckless, risking his legs in desperate attempts to reach bases, he was doing it in a manner that insured against injury and his record is the best proof of this.
 At bat he was rarely hit by pitched ball. Only once in his career, late in the August of 1921, was Cobb hit in the head by a pitched ball. Jack Quinn hit him over the right ear and knocked him unconscious. Cobb's peculiar stand at the plate always enabled him to duck balls pitched on the inside. He was able to get out of the way quickly. He had that mind when he adapted that peculiar stance.

DATES SET FOR
 CITY PREP TILTS
Ensley Tackles Phillips In Opening Clash
 January 23

Dates for the clashes between Ensley, Phillips and Woodlawn on the basket ball court were definitely fixed by the trio Of coaches from the three schools at e meeting Thursday afternoon, al- though other opponents for the sextet of double headers" which are planned were unknown. The triangular loop Will begin January 23, when Ensley tackles Phillips.
 The three teams will each meet the other twice during the season, all or the games being played on the Phillips court, where all Of the city preps will practice, at least a part of the time, according to plans drawn up several days ago. At each meeting of two Of tue local city quintets, the third mem- Der of the triumvirate will battle an outside opponent, these to be announced later.
 Ths dates for the meetings of the teams are as follows; January 23, En- sley vs. Phillips; January 30, Ensley vs. Woodlawn; February 6, Phillips vs. Woollawn; February 13, Phillips vs. Ensley February 20, Ensey vs. Wood- lawn; February 27, Phillips vs. Wood- | lawn.
 These clashes between the teams of the city group are expected to bring forth some of the best basket ball staged by the local preps in several seasons.
 Ensley did not put out cage quintet last season, but this year the Jackets will undoubtedly come strong. They have several veterans who performed courle of seasons back, among them the all-state Country Lowery, who was che of the best guards in prep circles. The Ersley star should go good on the court this year.
 Phillips will certainly come strong on the court with q good assortment of veterans and plenty of new material, while Woodlawn's prospects are in tho doubtful stage, due to the loss of prac- tically all treir varsity and scrubs of the fine machine which represented the customers the past season.
