AS HOME
Great Swedish Swimmer Has
Leaning Toward
Illinois A. c.

The decision of Arne Borg to re-
main in this country adds another
to the list of great athletes who
have written their names on the
membership list Of the Illinois A.
G. Though Borg is not yet certain
that Chicago will be the place
where he finally takes up his abode.
he leans to that city. The great
Swedish swimmer is certain, how
ever. that he is going to make his
home in this country.
II he goes to Chicago it is
naturally certain that he will be
made a member OF the Illinois A.
c. And the team which can pro-
duce both Johnny Weissmuller and
Arne Borg on one swimming team
is going to bow 10 few teams in
the country, or the world for that
matter. 1t appears now that the
expected clash between Borg and
Weissmuller will not come at the
national championships on the
coast. for Weissmuller is to confine
himself to shorter distances than
Borg wants to underStake.

GROVES STOPS CODY
THEIR FOURTH BATTLE

Kid Groves, the Mohawk battler,
though still a preliminary boy, to.
day is the talk of Washington s
fight fans as the result of his third
round knockout of Jack Cody, of
Fort Myer. at the Congressional
Country Club. On the night before
Groves had knocked out Patrone in
the National Capital Sporting Club
show.
But his two knockout victories in
twenty-four hours was not as inter
esting perhaps as the fact that he
stopped Cody. 1t was the fourth
meeting between Groves and Cody.
Previously they had fought three
ripping battles that were about
even. Few thought either would
win by a knockout in the fourth
encounter. A solar plexus punch
did the trick.
Johnny Conroy, another Mohawk,
fought four-round draw with
frankie Weinert. Chuck Rubin. of
the navy yard. trimmed Jerry Gar
diner in a fast four-rounder. The
show was handled smartly by Al
Day, assisted by Frank Kennedy.

Whatever success Mails attains

The usual custom in golf in
this country so far as profess
SIGNALS go is to have a Northern
green during the regular sea-
