DELANEY AND
DEMPSEY ARE
TRUMP CARDS
Will Hold Them For
Final Bouts of 'Tunney'
Elimination Series

New York, Jan. 11.-LP)-The two
right bowers" in the heavyweight
deck, Jack Delaney and Jack Demp-
sey, apparently won't be played until
the critical tricks Of the game are
involved.
Although Tex Richard, the princi-
pal dealer of the pack, would like to
shuttle Delaney in with the rest of
the cards, it is increasingly evident
that the preliminary plays will be
made by Maloney, Sharkey, Berlen-
bach, Hansen, Paolina, and, possibly,
Young Strbling, the Georgian who
has outgrown his school boy and light
heavyweight days.
Richard already has decided to hold
Dempsey in reserve. He regards the
exclamation as ranking next to the
ace Of the pack, Gene Tunney, and
plans to discuss with his here in O
few weeks a proposal to meet the win
ner of an elimination series.
Compromise Expected
Delaney, meanwhile. looms as the
wild deuce" of the deck. His man.
ager, Pete Reilly, would like to stick
with Humbert j.. Fugazy, Richards
promoting rival, but that would mean
losing chance to life Tunneys
crown. The outcome is likely to be
a compromise whereby Delaney con-
sents to meet Maloney or Sharkey.
the winner to face Dempsey and thus
determine Tunney's chief rival.
Delaney's manager already has
started an eloquent campaign to es-
tablish the French Canadians heavy
weight claims. He points to Delanev's
knockout victories over such fighters
as Flowers, Berlenbach, McTigue and
German. Furthermore to dispel any
notion that Delaney isn't heavy
enough, Reilly has put forward an
up-to-date set Of statistics, showing
that his charge has gained a dozen
pounds in the last year, developed
proportionally to his present figure
of 175, and promises to scale about
1876 when the outdoor season starts.

JOHN M'GRAW
DAVID HARUM'
OF BASEBALL
Giants Chieftain Engineers
s.
Transaction Involving A
Clubs, IL Players !

New York, Jan. 11.--CR)-John Nc
Graw, metropolitan observers seem
convinced, is fast establishing him
self as the David Harum of baseball.
Fresh from startling the baseball
world with the deal that brought
Rogers Hornsby to New York, the
grey haired chieftain of the Giants
has just engineered a complicated
transaction involving four clubs and
II players. "
AS result of this wholesale shift,
completed yesterday, the Giants OBJ
ball pitcher star of the Brooklyn
Robins, and Outfielder George Harper
Of the Phillies. Brooklyn acquires
of the Phillies, who get three per-
son, veteran twirlers, and Lafayette
Thompson, infielder.
The Buffalo Internationals, fourth
party to the deal, obtain five men.
Two of them, Infielder Billy Huber
and Pitcher Ray Pierce, 60 from the
Phillies at once in exchange for Fer
guson. In the spring the Bisons will
get three more players on option, two
from Brooklyn and one from New
York.
In this involved shuttle, the Giants
obtained Henline and Harper for
Thompson and Scott, then shifted
Henline to Brooklyn for Grimes.
Grimes Is Veteran
Grimes is the last Of the veterans
to 60 in Brooklyn's reorganization.
The veteran, who has seen IL major
league seasons, has been one of the
Robins biggest winners since 1918,
when he was traded by Pittsburgh.
Scott was a hero of the Giants
1922 world series triumph over the
Yankees and performed we'll last
year. Ferguson, who has seen SER
vice with the Yankees and Red Sox,
also helped Washington land the 1925
American League Dcnnant.

The di bible IN bask etoail is per-
hapS omparablc to The forward pass
in football IN that it is i feature OF
the game which opens up the play,
Il valuable offensive weapon, and Il
spectacular and thrilling phase Of the
game
Properly used, the dribblc maY
be very effective. When not used
with discretion or when used too
much, it may prove to be Il
"boomerang" and have very
detrimental effect on team play.
In general, long winding dribhles
in defensive territory are not advis-
able. while the short, fast dribblc
which carries the dribble into the
basket fer !; short shot is very valu
able.
When dribbling, the player should
have his body well under control.
The bail should be kept well out
ahead Of The dribber, so as to avoid
running over the bail kicking it., etc.
On the other hand, the dribber
must guard against the ball get
ting away from him because it is
too far ahead. To find the happy
medium requires good co-ordina-
ton and careful persistent prac-
ticc.
The shoulder should be held pre.ty
much in place, the drisblc being
made with the forearm primarily. The
flexible use OF the forearm and wrist
gives the velvet touch, which is so
important in dribbiing, as opposed to
the hard, pounding dribblc which re
suits when players use the stiffarm
method, with the motion mostly in
the shoulder. raising the shoulder up
and down each time the ball is tapped.
The ball. during the course Of the
dribblc, must, above all, he Kept un-
der control; and the big factor in
this matter is keeping the ball low,
not pounding il to the floor, with the
high bounce resulting, but rather
tapping it lightly so that the ball
never bounds higher than waist
high.
If the ball is handled in this way,
the dribb!e kept low, the result is
more hand contact during the course
of the dribble.

Since the dribbler can control the
ball only when the hand is in con-
tact with the ball, it is very apparent
that the more times his hand comes
in contact witch the ball during the
course Of a dribble, the better he is
able to control it and the less the
chance of interception by the OPP
position.
Constant pratice results in less
and less close attention being nee
essary to control the ball, leaving the
dribbler free to devote more of his
attention to avoiding opponents.
Note that in the illustration. the
ball is at it's topmost point, which,
in this case, is perhaps less than
waist height.
