FIGHT GAME NEEDS
 DIRECTING HEAD
Jake Kilrain Believes in One Man
 at Head Of Boxing
GAS Told to Billy Eyans)


 Lack of a directing head has been one thing that has handicapped the fight game.
 Baseball has it's league presidents and high commissioner, the court of last resort 10 settle and tangles. Football has it's governing body, as has tennis and golf.
 Boxing is the one ma for sport that has been permitted to shift for itself with no man or body of men to iron out the many disputes that constant ly arise in all forms Of sport compe- tition.
 During the last n years Q number Of states have legalized boxing and have state boxing commissions that look after the welfare of tho game in that particular locality. A num- Der of the state boards work togeths CT for the batterment of the game.
 kilrain believes that one man at the head of the boxing game, whose decisions would be final, would be "hotISl plp6itc oltp lCI lll5 sport. Such man could be selected by the boxing commissions from the various states where boxing is legal iZcd.
 There has been decided change in the background of boxing but there is still room for improvement" says kilrain.
 1 'ln the old days the police sought to stop every bout arranged, now the police mako an extra effort to see that the fights are properly con- ducted.
 The bouts are staged in fine open air arenas or In buildings, in many cases built to hold boxing contests. Everything IS the very best for the spectators and fighters.
 Tt wasn't that way in my day. Take for instance my bout in France with Jcm Smith, that went 10s rounds to a draw.
 "My two seconds and myself left London for Rouen. France, as per instructions. We remained there several days, We understood the bout was 10 be staged on an island in the Seine and We would get there by boat.
 T was in bed one morning when one of my trainers called me, telling em the figbt was to he held that day and We must be on our way at once. I dressed hurriedly.
 "Tnstcad of taking tho boat we boarded a train that followed the course of the Seine. This was to throw off the police. We finally reached the island of Dc Souvoraine where inc bout was staged.
 "It was winter and very cold. There vas snow on the ground, A spot was selected for the ring and the snow cleared away. assisted. Can you imagine the modern day fighters doing battle champion ship fight, under such conditions.
 "Take my fight with Sullivan. We had to outwit the police and soldiers who were delegated by the state to stop It. Then for weeks had 10 pay nlUe anu Sttk Nliu lIC pOllCS because I had engaged in a prize fight.
 "I was finally arrested, fined s2oo and sentenced to two month in jail. I told the judge I didn't mind the fine but hated to 50 to jail. How ever, served the two months.
 "In those days it was customary to farm out prisoners and some of my friends got busy and purchased my services for 80 cents day. That helped considerably.
 Now you can see what I mean when I say the background of the fight game has changed consider- ably.
 Boxing is a great clean sport that makes for better men and should be iegalzed in every state. I hops live to see that day"

New Britain herald., 1925-08-20
(By Billy Evans)

Is the playing manager a more effective weapon than the bench performer or vice versa?
 At the close of the present season 1t will be possible to- settle mathe- matically the controversy for 1925 at least.
 At the present time there are eight playing and the same number of bench managers. It's a 5O-50 proposition.
 In the pennant chase of 1925 t.e bench manager, at this writing, has the edge, for the three clubs in the National league rated as champion ship possibilities are bench manag- ed.
 l have reference 10 John McGraW at New York, Bill McKechnie, Pitts burgh, and Jack Hendricks of Cincinnati.
 In the American league it is even-Stephen between Connie Mack, who manages from the bench, and Stanley Harris, who plays as well as directs.
 Eight Playing Managers
 They do say that no baseball club can hope for d pennant without brainy performers around second and rtstop. Perhaps that is why five of the eight playing managers in the majors perform at those positions.
 Three of the playing managers are second basomon Stanley Harris of Washington, Eddie Collins, 'Chi- cago White SoX. and Rogers Horns by of the St, Louis Cardinals.
 Two perform at short, MaranviIlo of the Chicago Cubs and Bancroft Boston Braves,
 George Sislor is the lone first sacker, while Cobb and Speaker are i outfiNlders extraordinary. who also manage.
 It is likewise a rather interesting fact that four of the non-playing managers, McGrar. Higgins, Nc ] Kochnie and Fletcher, performed as infcld"rs during their major league careers.
 Starred as Inficldcrs
 Thus 10 Of the 16 big league managers absorbed most of their baseball knowledge as infield per formers
 However, 10 tho second sackers goes much of the glory of the last few years. stanley Harris, in his first year as q maJor Ieaguo mana ger, won a ponnant and world series for Washington.
 Now along comes Eddie Collins, who takes tailon1er and keeps 1t in the first division from the open ing Of the campaign,
 In mid-soason inc great Rogers HornShy took over the disgrun0ed Cardinals and immediately the club began to play corking baseball,
 In Better Position
 Unquestionably an inhelder is in better position 10 direct than an outfelder. He is m closer contact with his pitchers and inner defense, always in a position to give a bit of hurried advice. On the other hand the outhelder is far removed and must come in from his position if he desires to pull certain bits of strategy. This delays the game and is not rehshed by the spectators. With the big league managerial jobs a 5O-bO proposition, il will he interesting at the close Of the sea, son 10 sec whetRor the playing oi bench manager holds the edge ir results.

DAZZY VANCE BEATSPLRA7ES,
 SENA TORS ALMOST M FIRST
But Three Points Behind Mackmen-Giants Have Close Call with Cubs-Phis Defeat Cincinnati Reds After 20 Attempts ts-CardnaIs Defeated By Braves-Re suits in American League.

New York. Aug. 20 (P -- Last years big league champions are cheering up. Washington is only three points behind Philadelphia in the American league and the Giants are only two games behind the pi- rates.
 Pittsburgh fell yesterday before unusually poor pitching on the part Of the speed ball monarch, Dazzy Vance of Brooklyn, s 10 {. II was Vance's eighteenth victory and he must thank the sturdy bat of Cot ton Tierney, former Pirates, for q resounding triple which gave the Dodgers the victiry margin. Barn. hart of the Pirates dealt blows which counted five Pittsburgh runs but they were insufficient
 John McGraw was compelled to use four pitchers to set back the Cubs, ' to 6. Grover Alexander was driven out by the New York bats In the first two innings and Bush finished well but allowed the win ming run.
 The Philies should be happy, for although they appear 10 be going nowhere in the standing they man. aged to beat Pete Donohue of the Reds. Twenty times Donohue has trounced the men of Fletcher. Yes terday was the first time they de- feated him since he entered the majors. Their five to four margin came through singles by Sand, Leach and Williams in the ninth.
 St. Louis Cardinals bowed to the Braves for the third straight time, 5 to 4, although the Bostonians were outhit. Bob Smith was sup ported by fast fielding,
 Dutch Reuther, twenty hits and an excellent brand of relief pitching by Marberry in the ninth won the day for the world champion Sena- tors, Cleveland proving 12 to 8 victim. The Athletics succumbed to the Browns in torrid battle, 9 to 8. Mack used twenty players, ln- cluding five of his best pitchers. In the ninth Philadelphia rallied for six runs, only to be overtaken and passed when the home club scored three.
 The White Sox, with Charley Robertson pitching and allowing five hits, defeated the Red Sox, 8 to 1, while Detroit took advantage of five Yankee errors to win, tc 3, although Herb Pennock permit ted only six safeties.

OLD TIME GRIZZLY AGAIN
 APPEARING IN CALIFORNIA

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12.-The California grizzly bear, supposed to be extinct, has appeared after lapse of 40 years in the Sequoia National For est, according to a reliable report.
 At one time the California grizzly ranged the Sierra Nevada and Coast ranges in such large numbers that he was made the official emblem of the state and still graces the state flag. He is considerably larger than the Rocky Mountain grizzly, is of a gray ish tinge and has a distinct hump on top of his shoulders. As fighter he was feared by all other animals of the early California days, yet he was not considered danger to man, and usu- ally took to flight upon being ap- preached. He was even less carnivo. rous than the small black bear and lived largely on roots and acorns.

AMERICAN FILM DIRECTORS

BERLIN, Feb. 12.-Dr. Fritz Lang, German film manager who recently returned from a study of the film in lustry in the United States, deliv- cred lecture in which he said Am erican film directors are too cOmmer- cial and much less devoted to art than German directors. Of all the American directors he said he found that Griffith alone has ideals.
 Dr. Lang also said that in his opin- ion Germany has better actors than the United States, but the United States has a much greater variety of actors, is able to produce an actor for every part who merely plays him. self, and has actors who keep con- stantly in training and keep their bodies active and fresh through sport. The failure of German actors to keep in good physical trim is a great

TRADE ADVERTISING IS
 LIKE coURTING A GIRL

BLACKBURN, Eng, Feb 12.- Trade is won by constant advertising just as girl can only be won by consistent courting, in the opinion of James Stanworth, mayor of this town.
 You must offer the right kind of goods and keep on calling. If you de- sire to win the girl you must start with a good character. Keep advo- eating your claims. Your shy man is in danger of being headed off by rival and even if he wins temporarily he may lose in the end if he is not genuine
 Tt is just the same in business. No advertising campaign can make a per success of a commodity or service that is not good and that is not worth the price paid for it."

 And I wanted something real At last I came to Alaska
 The Land that many curse, But Alaska, I adore you,
 For I've seen so many worse. Some say the Devils hand made you, But we know that it was not; While others say Alaska
 Is a land that God forgot. Now if God forgot Alaska
 Like I've heard some people say; How did it become so beautiful 1 Around Resurrection Bay? And seated there beside it, l So peaceful and alone Is Seward, The Gateway City, Like a monarch on his throne. The mammoth mountains watch OCT | it,
 As true and faithful guards; 1 I
 Within the Temple yards. They are watching, ever watching
 From their dizzy heights above; Ger the valley in all it's splendor--
 Ger the land they seem to love. Seward, opens the Gateway
 All the way to Fairbanks by rail; Over the route the oldtimers mushed
 In with their dogs by trail The country has rapidly progressed, l Since the days that used to be, But Alaska will always be Alaska
 Beautiful, fair and free.
 Alaska, we all love you,
 For you are our chosen land, And we will ever be with you
 As long as your mountains stand.
