COMMISSION RULE
CLEARS BERLENBACH
IN DELANEY SQUAWK

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The dis
putet over whether or not Paul Ber-
lenbach should have been disqualified
for going down without being hit in
the fourth round of that bitter battle
recently TO save his Interchangeable
titlef rom the determined bid Of Jack
Delaney is settled by a new boxing
commission rule and is in favor of
Berlenbach and Referee Eddie Purdy,
who declined TO act when Delaney and
his handlers appealed TO him.
The commission rule is that after
man is knocked down. if he gets up
and then goes down again without
taking a punch, that the count simply
is resumed. The rule prevents disqual-
ification for what has long been
grounds for same under the old Mar
quis of Queensberry rules.
Berlenbach, befuddled and slung BY
those two short cnih rights that fellel
him, unquestionably did get up AMI
then go down with the intention OF
taking a longer count. When Delaney
and his corner men yelled about it,
Paul got right up AID waded into the
fray. Purdy did the proper thing by
motioning them TO continue, though
the commission rule made il. some
thing of bad break for Delaney.

.b0R0TRA' s RISE
IN TENNIS !.
QUICK
Natural Ability and Per-
sonality Garry French
man Up.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9. -. Jean Bo-
rotra. picturesque French tennis star,
has left an indeliblc mark on the
American tennis public. Like his fell
low countryman, Georges Carpenter,
he possesses that rare gift called per-
sonality, so essential to the gaining OF
popularity with followers of sport. In
the short space of three years he has
risen from obscurity TO tennis prom
inence.
Borotra was born at Arborne, near
Biarritz, in 1898, which makes MIN
q years of age. He belongs to the
race Of people who inhabit both sides
of the frontier along the pyrcnees
called the Basques. AS most Of these
people are natural athletes it was only
natural that Borotra and his broth
ers should excel at all sports includ-
ing tennis, golf, pelota, football and
boxing.
TO FRONT IN 1920.
Although he had played tennis off
and on during his school days it was
not until 1920 that he started to gain
prominence III the net game.
Most of his early tournament play
was confined to local events at such
places as Etretat, Ostcnd. Rouen and
Havre. 1t was at one of these meets
that he gained his first big victory
by defeating Manuel Alfonso, Spanish
Davis Cup player.
This Immediately attracted the At
tention of the French officials who
later picked him TO represent France
in the Davis Cup contests.
The Bounding Basque" made his
first appearance in tournament play in
the United States in 1922, and al
though defeated in the Davis Cup ties
against Australia. he made a decided
impression on the American critics.
LEARNED IN AMERICA.
Upon his return to France follow
ing the seasons play in this couu-
try he announced that he had learned
more tennis in the six months that
he was over here than in all the
years he had been playing in
Europe.
He followed this remark up with Il
startling victory in the Coupe DaI
Noel, considered the French indoor
championship by most Of the French
officials.
When Borotra sailed for France fol
lowing his sensational play in the
challenge round at Philadelphia. he
remarked that he would be back next
summer and that he hoped to bring
LaCostc, Cochet and Mile. Lenglen
with him. Who knows but that the
Bounding Basque" may yet lead a
team against America that will win
the cup? Certain it is that he has
many years of championship play be-
fore him yet.

Nine new worlds records have been

similar period before in the history Of
the game. Five of these marks were
made by the gentleman's runabout
type, which corresponds to the high
grade passenger auto; four of them
were by racing hydroplanes, which are
in boats what the speedway machine
is to the auto world.
The Gold Cup class speed was
boosted at Manhasset Bay, n. Y, in
August, from As m. p. h., made in De-
troit last year, to 40 IN. y. h., by

! it where he cant bit the ball and we
will take chapco on the next batter.
Young followed orders. Hc tossed
four wide ones while the crowd sat in
puzzled amazemeBt. Never before had
it seen pitcher Intentionally send
n batter TO first.
The next batter-a presumed weak
one-hit out q long single, which put
his team ahead and gave the Cieve--
land audience a chance to boot and
jeer at Tebeau. But Patsy wouldn't
concede that the play was a failure.
Later in the game when the score
had narrowed down to "a One-run lead
for Cleveland, similar situation came
up. Once again Tebeau instructed
Young Intentionally to pass the heavy
hitter. His orders were carried out
and the next man hit into double
play, retiring the side and winning
the game for Cleveland.
Tcbeau continued to use the play
and the other managers used it. too,
and eventually it became universal.
A CLOWNS VALUE
"Nick AltrOck and AL Schacht are
worth $4,000 to my ball club" de-
clares Clark Griffith, owner Of the
Senator's. ''And the best feature Is
that their value, unlike that of n
performing ball player, increases,
rather than decreases, as the years
roll on.
"a thousand people go out every
day to the ball park to see my club
play who probably wouldn't go if they
were certain that Nick and Al
wouldn't be on the coaching lines per-
forming some Of their antics.
"The baseball fan is peculiar
creature inasmuch as he always wants
side issue comedy mixed with stern
baseball play. Altrock and Schact pro-
vide that with their innocent but side
splitting stunts.
mick and Al have another value
beside that of amusing the fans. They
are always in the best of spirits and
greatly help the morale Of my team.
There is never a crouch or a case of
blues when they are around. They
don't take life seriously. MS far as
trouble is concerned. And they won't
let anybody else do it. IL some Of the
boys slip into the glooms, along comes
Nick and Al with a familiar pat OH
the back, few funny words, perhaps
an antic or twO-and the crouch is
forgotten, the player grins, and every
! thing is lovely"
