MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Feb
16.-Let's forget for the mo
1nent that I'm promoter Of
this Sharkey-Stribling show
and let's just think Of me al
an old timer sitting around
and looking over the fistic
scenery.
After which I'd like to hazard
the guess that this fight will be
the most savage that has happened
in Kingdom for long. long time.
Sharkey doesn't like Stribling no
way no how; thinks OF him as a
fresh guy" And strib, smarting
under some cracks that Sharkey
has made. nurses a grudge for the
Bostonian, and can hardly wait
until the 9th to open up fire on
him.
The first time the boys met down
here--that was the night Sharke
arrived to go into training. they
nearly got tangled up in a ring
where they were presented as
guests of the evening. 1t took a
little fast work to halt the boys
from putting on q free show then
and there.
An three OF us were i'm the
ring for Introduction to the
crowd at q little fight club.
When that was over. and we
were about to climb out through
She ropes, Sharkey said to
Stribling:
I'm be seeing You later"
The way Jack said it. the ex-
preston on his facial of it
brought a flush to Stribling's face
and like flash he shot this at
Sharkey:
wei. / hope nothing win pre-.
vent you from getting around"
Sharkey was just through the
ropes when he got the significance
situation that Stribling feared
Sharkey' might try to take run
out before fight day.
"I'll bust that guy on the nose
right now, exploded Sharkey, TAX
ing a step toward where Stribling
was standing after exit from the
ring.
oh, no, you won't" l said, grab.
bling Sharkey's arm. Save 1t all
for the twenty-seventh,"
II you were to ask me about 1t,
I'd say that Sharkey and Stribling
both are what some folks would
call fresh" young men.
Each Is cOclxy, confident and
inclined to toss around a sneer
or a threat. Because both, I'm
some ways, are much alike,
there's a clash of what's called
this temperament stuff, and
each is nursing dislike for the
other.
II they weren't fighting for any.
thing else than to settle that grudge
it would be rough and tough fight.
with no favors asked and none given.
But when you recall that the loser of
this fight gets pushed out of the
'big league" picture, while the other
fellow goes on to another big money
battle-and perhaps still another
fight with larger cash reward-it
isn't at all difficult to conclude that
Sharkey and Stribling will step out
with the first gong-each resolved to
do a lot of that murder" stuff.
1t is going to be FIGHT, boys
don't 60 wrong on that!

CHEVY CHASE, Nd, Nov.
. 1.-Plans for the construction
of a circle and entrance to
} Washington on Wisconsin Ave
nue. at the Montgomery county
District Of Columbia line
where it would be intersected
by Western Avenue and Mill
.tary Road will be presented to
''the Maryland National Capital
AParkand Planning Commission
for approval at their next
meeting this coming week.
The co-ordinating committee of
; the National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission has already ap'
proved the project.
The plans. prepared by Charles
w. Eliot, city planner of the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning
seCommission. and Irving c. Root.
chief engineer OF the Maryland
National Capital Park and Planning
Commission. provide for the creation
of a circle which would be deco
rated with shrubs and other horti-
cultural features and with special
. attention to the contiguous land
scape,
200 Feet Wide
Although the details of the prof.
ect have not been completed, it is
proposed to provide circle Of about
= 200 feet in diameter-only slightly
smaller than Chevy Chase Circle
Nwith Wisconsin Avenue traffic and
trolley tracks cutting directly
through the center.
The park within the circle would
then appear as two semi'clrcles.
- Through traffic on Western Ave-
nue. and Military Road would go
around the circle.
AS six important intersections
occur at this point the circular
treatment was regarded by the
engineers as the only logical
method for handling traffic.
~ Mostly In District
The plan contemplates the slight
RELOCATION Of Military Road within
the District between Forty.second
Street and Wisconsin Avenue in
order to center on the proposed
. circle. From the west side of the
proposed circle F'or$y-fourth Street
in d. C. will extend directly
south to another proposed circle at
the intersection of Massachusetts,
Avenue and Nebraska Avenue.
About three. fourths of the area
in the new circle will be located
in the District of Columbia, while
the remaining one-fourth of the
area will be located in Montgomery
county.
