doing away with stagnant air and
vapors in hay lofts, greatly lessons
the danger of spontaneous combustion

SPORT
CHAT

Harry Greb IS seeking to regain
the middleweight crown which now
reposes on the dusky brow of Tiger
Flowers, the Georgia Parson. Greh
is real veteran of the squared circle
with over 400 victories behind him
and the general consensus of opin-
ion is that he has fought his best
fights. Former champions who have
sought to stage comebacks have been
most unsuccessful as a whole. Jim
Jeffries failed to come back strongly
enough to down Jack Johnson.
Georges Carpenter never got to the
stage where he could demand the
crown he lost to Battling Sikh and
Mike McTigue never had a show of
getting his title away from Paul Ber-
lenbach. Except for rare occasions
like the famous duels between Ted
Kid Lewis and Jack Britton, the
once defeated champions have had
tough luck and it would seem more
glorious for Greb to retire on his
splendid record than to pursue the
dangerous course Of attempting to
wear the middleweight crown again.
