TODAY'S
SPORTORIAL
By Kirk Miller

From the depressing gloom OF
the anthracite tunnels to the
! exhilarating and scintillating
heights of the welterweight
championship Of the world is
the career of Pete Latzo in q
breath. Whether he will make
more money in his new profess
sional role than in his old, de-
ponds entirely on how much
they stick US for coal next win
ter, but Latzo can at least be
said to be the master of two
very lucrative professions.
It has ever been written IN
the pages of all histories that
some of the greatest achieve
ments have been recorded by
the courageous souls who
seemed to start from the most
dismal surroundings.
There is "a psychology in the
overcoming of great handicaps
which makes victory all the
sweeter and which creates a
rare contrast between the man
who has everything to start
with and fails and he who be-
gins with nothing and goes over
with burst of glory.
The mining regions of Penn
syIvania and other sections have
given the athletic world many
characters whose names will
live at least as long as the
present generation. Latzo is not
the first sturdy lad from the
depths of the coal shafts to
wear the laurel wreath which
the sporting world has to be-
stow.
The physical development
necessary to cope with the hard
ships of that strenuous indus
try is identical with that re-
quired to survive in fields Of
competitive sport. The same
same indomitable spirit to con-
quer is essential in each.
He who can grope in the dim
torchlight and succeed should
by the very nature of things
be aggressive when given the
opportunity with the handicap
Of semi-darkness gone.
There was a time last fall
when the Washington ball club,
fighting for it's second success
sive American League flag, had
five former coal miners within
its ranks.
That Stanley Harris lifted
himself from the depths is as
well known a fact as that Abra-
ham Lincoln lived in a log
cabin. Most are equally as ia
miliar with the similar early life
of Joe Harris. Stanley Coveles-
kie, grim, cool, determined, is
a graduate of the lower stratas
and Clarence Thomas was left
handed pick wielder before he
took to chucking baseballs to
the exclusion Of all other visible
signs of self-sunpport.
The fifth fuel digger at the
time. we mention was Bobby
Veach, who has gone hence
and at least four out of these
five names have been gentlemen
to conjure with in the baseball
fields as they must have been
in the coal fields. Only his
youth keeps Thomas from being
included in this semi.local group
of which we are so strongly
reminded when we review the
victory Of Pete Latzo, the coal
miner, over Mickey Walker, the
smiling New Jersey Harp.

IS THIRD
BY Ross L. Conklin

With three victories in as many
years in the annual interscholastic
track and field championship games,
Happy Hardell's Tech High School
boys seem to have learned the old
tricks that Bin Foley used to hold
exclusively for Central. The Man
ual Trainers won their first meet
in 1924. They repeated again last
year, and when the meet was over
this year, they had again won,
Techs 81 points were won mainly
through superior work on the track,
at which Central is usually the
more proficient. 1t was in thu
field events that the Blue and
White made its most determined
attempt to wrest the crown from
the Techites.
Four records were broken, two
by Big Macdonald, one BY Horace
Hebb in the 40, and fourth by
Jones, Of Central.
Eastern seemed bent upon MAX
ing a lot OF trouble at the start of
the meeting, but the Easternites
could not stand the pace their
earlier entries had set out, and they
failed dismally. 1t was Eastern
first determined effort, though, and
the coaches at the Northeast school
have worked wonders In such q
short time.
This young fellow Entwistle, of
Eastern, fooled the populace in the
mile run. He started out in a fast
sprint, and he kept 1t up for a
Quarter of a mile. Then he dropped
his pace and at the half was still
in the lead. "A team mate, O'Brten,
then took up the pace. and settled
the race all by himself. Adams, Of
Tech, finished second strongly, and
Entwistle got the place. Chaconas,
of Central, looked upon the favorite,
was not in condition. He has re-
Gently been seriously ILL., and the
boy could not cope with the others.
Hebb burned up the track in. the
40. The spindle-legged Techite
turned the quarter in 81 3-5 seconds,
Connors, also of Tech, was the in
dividual point leader, though Mac
Donald came close to his score.
