HOME. SWEET HOME
E7OTICE a press dispatch to-
I'M day that says Jack Reyn-
A Odds of Cedar Rapids, Ia,
(fended his welterweight wres-
Ting title. Jack Is rather ubi-
quitous person whatever that is).
In Louisville just before the Der
by big bills were posted around
proclaiming the fact that ken
tucky's only world champion was
to wrestle. That was Jack, too.
Reynolds also has played" In
diana and Ohio. 1t seems that
anywhere Jack hangs his hat and
wrestling belt is home, sweet home,
to him.
The Cedar Rapids address comes
fairly close to being correct. Any
way, as we remember 1t, that's the
city from which Reynolds came
when he first burst upon the as
tonished vision Of the Hoosier mat
fans.
y The fans want fighting ball
club. Good proof OF the fact is
found in the attendance figures
at the, Chicago Cubs ball park
this season. Up to this time $780,
900 more fans have clicked
through the turnstiles than In
1925. Manager Joe Mccarthy,
the minor Lacquer, has deliv-
cred.
When Joe sticks out that jaw
he means business. His players
know 1t, and evidently, the fans :
have found it out.
THE CAPTAIN SPEAKS

Of the Punch Bowl at FIT.
Harrison has issued a
statement in regard to the prefer.

Aarena. eve have reached the sat
vhration point in ringside parking"
said Captain Clark.
THE arrangement for parking
cars near the, bowl was originally
provided as a courtesy and con-
venience to physicians who an
ticipated hurry-up calls while at
tending the shows. Later it was
extended to officials Of the city
fire and police departments, who
have had several emergency calls
while at the arena. -
$50 many individuals now hold
preferential permits that fur
ther extension of the privilege
would only serve to jam things up
and defeat the purpose for which
the ringside parking was intended
Hereafter new permits will be is
sued only when parking passes
now In force are surrendered.

One can hardly blame Jess
Petty for "disobeying training,
rules" of the Brooklyn club. In
his first effort on the mound for
the Robins upon being rein

allowed only four hits and was
defeated by the Pirates, / to 0.
His teammates never got the

Immediately the Collins outfit
