Coach Day Must Build
Around Only Two Base
ball Regulars

Director OF Athletics Frank Day
OF Hyattsvi1le IEigh school faces
q difficult task to develop base
ball nine this spring as strong as
that which represented the school
last year and won the Prince
Georges county high school title.
Bill Chase, pitcher. and Dix,
third baseman, are the only 1924
regulars in school.
Those lost include Richmond
Reeley. one of the best catchers
the school ever had: Bob James,
first baseman; Watts, second-sack-
er and Frank Carr, shortstop. The
entire outfield comprising ShankIin,
Cannon and Dorrelle also will be
missing.
Heavy hitting was one Of the
chief factors in the success OF the
local team last season and fear
that the old punch cannot again be
developed this spring with q bunch
Of newcomers is largely responsible
for Coach Days rather gloomy at
titude.

Just a Mere Yawn

TT is with mere yawn that one
reads the weekly baseball re-
port from Tampa. Listing
those players signing contracts is
but one degree less interesting
than listing the se-called holdouts.
Walter Johnson was given per-
mission to seek a minor league
franchise. It is unfair to mention
his name in the same paragraph
with so-called holdouts until he
himself announces what he in
tends doing.
AS for Curly Ogden, Muddy
Ruel, Vean Gregg, George Mog-
ridge, Jezebel Zachary. Joe Mar
tina, Earl McNeely and the others,
if any, connecting them with hold
out lists is rather far-fetched.
Dutch Ruether, for instance,
though failing to sign his con-
tract, has already begun train
ing at Hot Springs. How can one
consider him holdout, even
though remaining unsigned at this
writing?
Bucky Harris will be at Hot
Springs next Sunday. A bunch Of
players are due to begin training
there on the following morning.
Who can tell that these players
won't carry their signed contracts
to the Springs?
Holding out is lost art in
major league baseball. It simply
isn't done any more, that's all,
it simply isn't done.

Twas Ever Thus.

rOHN THE BAPTIST, who is
the guardian of the rear door
- at Madison Square Garden and
has been on that job for num-
Der of years, is an observing gent,
at that.
Johns private room in the rear
is used by boxers occasionally
when the Garden has a long list
of bouts. In amateur Journeys
Johns boudoir is always used, as
the entries run up into the twen-
ties.
Recently, during one of the
Journeys, John was very watchful
about his room. After the big
night he said to Walter Fields:
AWalter, there's a lot of man
ayers looking for coming champs
nowadays" He laughed, and con.
tinued: "The other night at the
amateur fights l saw every kid
start from my dressing room with
four or five handlers and six man
ayers. If the kid won he came
back with the same number. If
he lost he came back alone, and
] helped him dress"

to Sammy Mandell. may outpoint
the Baltimore slugger, but if he
happens to connect with that
right hand, they will go right
through the ropes. When George
socks, his victims stay socked,
that's all.
AS soon as q tournament was
suggested to find Leonard's sue
cessor, Chaney's manager posted
his required forfeit and entered
his man. No cheering was heard.
On the other hand, a number of
candidates decided that the tour
ney meant no good to them. They
respectfully declined to mingle
with the gang.
If the tourney does nothing else,
It will have done well to show
up the craven-hearted flock of
Iightweights masquerading as top
notchers, collecting fancy sums
for dancing through fifteen
rounds.
Terris and Mandell each drew
down $14,7O0 for their fifteen
round act last week. 1t is doubt
full if Clancy has collected that
much in any six of his battles.
However, let him put some of
those alleged contenders to sleep
and there will be gravy enough
for him. The metropolis loves
the seekers and George sure can
sock.

PALACE Ne TMEN
OUTSCORE
N|ORRYS
Laundrynen Delight Crowd
With Clever Passing Ex-
Elibition in Last Half

The Second Story Morrys got an
even break in their Sunday basket
ball games. In. this fair city they
lost to the Palace Laundry team
by the score Of 81 to % but In
Baltimore. earlier in the evening,
they won from the 104th Regiment
team. I9 to 10.
Palace had little or no trouble In
running UP a score any time they
wanted it. The Morrys played a
beautiful guarding game in the first
half, but Palaces speedy young men
were just too good to be stopped
Cooney, Bushmar, and Conatay cut
capers, to the delight Of the crowd,
and rang up tWo-pointers in speedy
succession.
Palace only scored IL points in
the last half. This was due to their
trick passing which the folks
wanted to see. Haggerty acted as
the pivot man in passing contest
that had the Morrys dizzy a few
minutes after it started.
Kliszing, right forward for the
Morrys, was the scoring star for his
team. He eluded his guard five
times to sink the ball.

satisfy the curiosity 81 3 core
spondent who inquiries:
Who are the bowlers kidding
when they say: Can you imagine
me blowing one-pin spare?'
And thus far the question has
been answered to the satisfaction
Of anybody, perhaps, excepting Joe
Toomey. who really has been taken
advantage OF.
At the time Joseph made his
famous muff Of q single pin he

lamentable lack OF workmanship,
and If the unsullied golden truth
be told it was not the expression
OF Napoleonic egQtism. but more
In sef.derision that the originator
Of the expression: "Can you imag-
inc me BLOWN a one-pin spare2"
spoke his often-Quoted piece.
Why Toomey'S self-disguGt and
why should he, above all others,
or most all others, have been
least expected to blow that maple?
The answer is a tip to bowlers
who would be stars.
Joe TOOIney has few superiOrs
as . duclKpin. sharpshooter. To
get that way he spent much
time and q lot OF energy firing
away at single pins. 1t appears
that TOOney once had the advan-
tage of using, free Of charge,
q bowling alley during slack
trade hours.
Instead of enjoying himself in
the orthodox way, he worked at
the business Of acquiring accuracy,
shooting many times at each
maple. The time came when he
could hit. the pin on any spot
for a remarkably high average.
In fact. he became single-pin
expert.
And in the light of this expla.
nation it is not to wonder that
Joseph was ill-pleased with himself
when he blew that single stick.

Kept on Boxing.

"HAT defeat was terrible dis
appointment to CLANCY, but
- he kept on boxing. He had
failed in his first attempt to seize
title, but the woods were packed
with boxers and he continued to
appear in togs. Furthermore, he
was developing a terrific wallop
in his right hand and the string
of his victories continued to grow
Lew Tender stopped CLANCY IN
one round in 1919 and Joe Tiplitz
did it in three rounds. No one
has done it since, while CLANCY
has kept right on tapping his
rivals to dreamland.
There is one thing about Chaney
worthy of mention. He is a legiti-
mate lightweight. Making 135
pounds is easier for him than it
may be for some of those boys
entered in the New York elimina'
tion tournament.
During the past three or four
years he has battled such light
weights as Rocky Kansas, Babe
Picato, Joe yelling, Willie Ritchie,
Joe Tiplitz, frankie Rice, Harry
Kid Brown, Alex Hart and Danny
Kramer. He has made little or no
effort to obtain bouts with Benny
Leonard. Possibly he considered
Leonard bit too fast for him.

Two instances Of this initiative

meaning:
"To all who have seen Peter
Jackson's exhibitions in the ring
the peculiar, STOPPING posture Of

fectly familiar. Upon this none
too elegant mannerism many of
our English boxers have seized, as

The Baltimore boy has been
boxing for fifteen years, just think
of that. Once before he came
close to annexing a title. That
was back in 1916. Just as Benny
Leonard has always had some
thing on Lew Tender, so did
Johnny Kilbane have something
on CLANCY. The Clevelander
knocked out the Baltimore chal-
lenger in three rounds.
Clancy had fought his way
through large field to land that
battle with Kilbane for the
featherweight title. He had
knocked out such rivals as X. o.
Eggers, Reddy Moore, Young Britt,
Eddie O'Keefe, Jimmy Toland,
Knockout Mars, Tommy Houck,
Joe Coster, frankie Nelson and
Bobby Reynolds. He had received
decisions over Abe Attell in fif-
teen rounds, AL belmont, Danny
Ridge, Packey Hommey and Cal
Delaney. He had done well in
no-decision affairs with Johnny
Dundee, Patsy Cline, Matt Brock

from being a set-up. Neverthe-

A Ludicrous Instance.

k6A MORE ludicrous instance
of choosing the points
- in lesson which has
nothing to do with the issue, may
be mentioned in the case of our
boxers who model themselves on
Frank Craig. On what points of
the Coffee Coolers methods do
they fix the eye of study? On his
exceptionally clever footwork? On
the wonderful use which he makes
of long reach? On his tricky
ring tactics? On his noticeable
capacity for two-handed fighting? ?
"Not at all!
"On what trait of the Coffee
Coolers, then, do his English adj
mirers keep their eyes fixed, and
what especial virtue in his style
have they marked out for sincere
imitation?
''His habit of chewing gum!
"Here again is a not especially
elegant trick in master, nor has
it in any perceptible way paved
the path to the masters triumphs.

seem to see this, and they go on
gum-chewing all the same"

possible for one to have a very

any follow through at all.

should study this point and try

as far as possible. This is the
true golf shot, and if one does
this nothing else matters.
