MADISON SQUARE GARDEN. New
York, March IL A9 Pudgy Johnny
RiSko cuffed and clouted his way to a
surprising, but decisive victory tonight
over the subdued Boston sailor, Jack
Sharkey, in q 15-round mauling match.
While crowd of barely 10000 look
ed on, mildly interested and occas-
ionally bored the big rough and
tumble man from Cleveland battered
SharSey out Of the heavyweight elm
ination tournament with an awkward
but nevertheless tirelesS and frequent
.ly effective attack.
1t was battle of no particular thrills
and only one spill-that one expert
enced by Sharkey when he took a
count of three in the tenth round, haE
from the effects of a left hook and
half from slipping feet. 1t was a
wrestling, mauling, hit and miss bat
tie most of the way, too drab and I'M
exciting to add any lustre to an al
ready somewhat hstlesS and lifeless
heavyweight elimination tournament.
Risko won because of his aggressive
ness, but he also outpunched and out
gained the big Boston sailor. Jump
ing Johnny, at least, appeared anxious
and willing to make a fight of it, but
Sharkey, except for few flashes,
either backpedalled or missed like the
verieSt tyro.
There was no doubt of Risko's mar
gin. On the Associated Press score
sheet Risko was credited with nine
rounds and Sharkey with the remain
ing six.
From the viewpoint of the crowd the
most exciting prospect occurred in the
first few moments of the tenth round
when Sharkey, backed into corner,
went down to one knee after taking
two stinging lefts to the head and
slipping as he tried to dodge. A third
left delivered by Risko landed as the
sailor was. on his. knee, but it was an

left hook that threw the sailor into
the ropes. Gaining new momentum,
Risko pounded Sharkey's body. They
looked each other over for a moment,
then fell in close again to slug monot-
onously at each others ribs up to the
gong.
Round Thirteen
The battle was failing absolutely to
disclose anything spectacular in the
way of a heavyweight contender
Sharkey stabbed and stabbed with his
left until Risko walked right into him
with a volley of lefts and rights to
the head and body that suddenly shook
the Boston sailorman. He bounced
back into the ropes, came out in a
dive, and grabbed Risko tightly. The
crowd booed as Sharkey held desper
ately and Risko vainly punched and
hauled to do what little damage he
could Sharkey tired, and Risko failed
him from one rope to another, a left
hook crack landed on Sharkey's chin
two rights dug deep in his body and
his seconds had the smelling salts all
ready when the round ended.
Round Fourteen
Not content with the margin he ap-
peared to have piled up already, Risko
ripped wildly into Sharkey's body Jack

low punches that were nicking his
ribs. He fell again into Risko's style OF
fighting, short, bruising body smashes
at cheek to cheek range and he was
getting steadily the worst of it, Max
ing stand with his back to the ropes,
Sharkey ripped a right uppercut to
Risko's chin, but held tightly instead
of following up his advantage. Risko
was unhurt and he slugged, slammed
and tore at Sharkey's body right up
to the bell.
Round Fifteen
They shook hands for the final
round. Risko promptly ripped both
hands to the body as though the fight
was just starting Sharkey suddenly
found his opening and drove two crash
ing right hands into Risko's chin.
Johnny wobbled second, shook mis-
head and slammed back to dig Jacks

Holding Score 5 to 4
Bisbee Here Friday

The freshmen baseball team,
fighting with their backs to the
wall against the highly touted
senior team, lost the school base
ball championship in close game
yesterday 5 to 4. Except for Mil
ier's home run all the hits were
short and some quick fielding held
the score low. Cary, pitching for
the winners, had a 5-to-2 lead until
the final inning, but a two-run rally
and third man on the bases closed
the gap and the seniors were on the
defensive. Branham, Cary, Cum
minis and Miller furnished the spec
tacular playing for the seniors,
while Shropshire, Critchley, Ra-
mirez, Childers and Palmer were
the stars for the freshmen. Shrop-
shire, playing first base for the
yearlings, was responsible for all
the Frosh runs, batting in three
runs and scoring the fourth on an
overthrow to second.
The line-ups were as follows:
Seniors: Miller, IS; Cary, D;
Cummings, 1b; Branham, c; q.

HEALTH TALKS
Sponsored by the Ohio Public Health
Association

Association
Hundreds of Ohio children have been
spending the summer in fresh-air
camps for pre-tuberculosis children.
These camps represent an organized
community effort to prevent tubercu-
losis, while it can be prevented.
Children are chosen to attend
health camps because they seem ex-
ceptionally likely to contract tubercu-
losis. Some of them are anaemic and
under r-nourished. Some of them have
been exposed to active cases of tuber-
culosis.
Not one child out of a hundred
fails to gain weight in camp and to
grow brown and healthy. But there
is no magic to account for it. Long
hours of rest are the first consider
alton. The children go to bed early,
sleep at least ten hours, and rise
early. They are encouraged to play
games that do not take too much
strength. They must sleep or rest
every afternoon.
Meals are nourishing and simple
and consist almost entirely of milk,
fruits, vegetables and cereals. Fruit,
or milk and crackers, are served at
set hour every morning and after
noon. The children sleep in fresh
air and are out of doors every min
ute it is possible for them to be-.
Most important, they go to bed at
the same time every evening. They
get up at the same time every morn
ing. They play and study at the
same hours every day. Meal times
are always the same. Everything is
done that can be done to keep the
children contented and happy. That
is all there is to the system. There
is not an item of it which cannot be
duplicated at home after camp is over.
If the child lives at home as he
lived at camp, he will stay well. If
he does not sleep long hours, if he
stays indoors at the time, if his
diet is largely meat and fried foods,
if he is allowed to become excited,
restless and over-active, he will lose
the pounds he has gained and his
health along with them The real
value of the camp depends on how
well the child and his parents have
learned these lessons.

stirring appeals that cause men to
soar to dizzy heights or who are led
to believe there are easy roads to a

The trade unionist plumbs the

Trade union opponents are well
aware of its slow, glazier-like pur-

reactionary employer with his serf
ideal, make common cause in check

collective capacity of workers.
Let no trade unionist be affected
by terms. conservative" and "rad-
ical" means nothing. Principle alone

Trade unionists should cling to the

developing their collective capacity

MERE WORD--PLAY
Is Talk of a Conservative
or Radical Trade
UniOnist

There is no institution like trade
unionism.
The trade unionist believes in saw
ing himself.
All other movements that he is ask
ed to accept are based on the "let-
me-save-you" theory.
The political-action advocate would
lead workers into his promised land.
The employer has welfare schemes,
his American" plan and his COM
pany "union." Both pledge every
thing to the worker but ownership in
himself.
They would have the workers de-
pend on them.
The trade unionist rejects the po-
litical zealot and paternalism of en-
ployers. They are the modern self
concept.
