Ensign Harry Henderson, now a
naval officer, a former intercolle-

years he seems to be getting better.

honors in the person of Harry De.
vine, Of Worcester.
Although Devine, who now holds
the national crown in his weight, is
a new face in American amateur
boxing ranks, he is anything but q
novice when the time comes to set
the, feathers flying, and unwarned
cortenders at the national bouts at
Boston discovered that when thew
We're pitted against him.
First of all, this Worcester feath-
erweight is southpaw. There have
been few lefthanders, in nv
memory, who have amounted to
much, but this youngster has an un-
canny way of beating his opponent
to the punch. That is the second
his adversary gets set to land a
blow this boy senses what's coming
and packs his in first. The fighter
often wins bouts before the
opponent knows what it's all about.
Devine is outstanding in the re-
spect that l do not recall any fight
err in American ranks, amateur or
otherwise, who compares with him
in his method of fighting, and a
man with his tricky offensive is GER
tainly valuable addition to the
United States Olympic team.
He has the advantage over Jackie
Fields, of Los Angeles, last Olym-
pic winner, in that he packs more
Of wallop than the Californian al
though he is not the ring general
that Fields is. However, that
doesn't bar him from improving
with experience, and l look to him
to hold up our end in the feather
weight tilt at Amsterdam.
So with my'whole team of 16 men
selected and on edge for the OPEN
ing of the Olympic tournament l
have no qualms as to the probable
outcome of the boxing festival. AS
their coach I have more than the
hope that they'll win-I know they
will.
Here is the team that will repre-
sent the United States at the Olym-
pics:
Hyman Miller, Los Angeles, 112-
pound class; john L. Daley, Wal
than, Mass, 118-pound; Harry De-
vine, Worcester, Mass, 126-pound;
Stephen Halaiko, Buffalo, N. Y,
135-pound; Thomas Levin, New
York City, 147-pound; Ensign
Harry H. Henderson, U. S. NJ, of
Waltham, Mass, 160-pound; Leon
Lucas, Philadelphia, 175-pound, and
George Hoffman, New York, heavy

bases they can, advancing at their
peril.
In some quarters, the impression
exists that the ball becomes dead.
This is erroneous. A number of
years ago that was the ruling. In
some cases a smart player, seeing
q play was impossible, purposely
threw the ball at the umpire, hop
ing to make the ball dead, thereby
preventing the advancement of the
baserunners.
Now it makes no difference how
the umpire is hit by thrown ball,
whether on fair or foul territory.
The umpire is supposed to avoid the
ball. If he fails, it simply continues
in play and the runner or runners
advance at their peril.

where the late John Fox, jr., wrote
his famous "Trail OF the Lonesome
Pine" contained so many inmates

More than 145 persons charged
with violation OF the liquor laws
were in Jail today as the result of a
series of raids in the rough noun
tains.
The list included John Wiley Gard
