Tense in the 1880 interhigh series.
Under the tuition Of Artie Boyd,
ex-Maryland University star, Tech
last year won q nip-and-tuck THU
lar pursuit while adopting the
five man system.
It was obvious, however, that
McKinley's supposedly formidable
defense could be shattered and
on no less than three occasions
the Manual Trainers were forced
to abandon this method Of play.
BY keeping the ball in the
back court and drawing
Techs players out from the
hoop, Business twice came
within q point Of victory
while lightning like attacks

Melted verdicts.
Central'S man for MAI system
was particularly Impressive,
Though an also ran in series
competition Bert Coggins' smartly
coached layout doubled the score
on Tech in second round play
after losing out the first time.
Having profited by their 1923
experiences, the other Elves who
trailed Tech a year ago will. be
out to break up this style Of play
Business. which opens up
against Tech, is laying particular
emphasis on the Importance OF
the back-court game. With

the orange and blue will likely be
In prime shape to upset the
enemy at the outset.
With GOldbIatt and Brown,

ago Tech had more than its
share of troubles with the

players their task will be far
harder.
Coach Artie Boyd is planning
no change in his system Of coach
ing. however, and intimates that
Mckinley, if anything, will make
more effective use Of the five
man defense during the impend-
ing campaign than ever before.
While with Maryland Boyd was
a practitioner of the zone defense
and still believes it powerful
enough to fool the other school
fives in series competition.
Whether or not his judgment is
sound will likely be proved be-
fore the 1880 event has prog

FAILED
To LAND
. CROWN
BY JACK DEMPSEY


This Jimmy McLarnin has a
record unique in Kingdom. He
fought in every class from fly
weight to welter, has been the
outstanding contender in every
division, has fought all the cham
pfonS, except one, and yet has
never gained a crown.
McLarnin has gone booming
along in every division, spanked
every other challenger into de.
feat, taken on the appearance Of
being greater than the titleholder,
but, when the time for a shot at
the champion arrived, he either
was overweight, didn't get the
chance, or blew" it.
But always he has been getting
the big money-and that Ger,
tainly is some comfort for him
even in whatever hours of diSap-
pointment he may know from not
having won a boxing crown thus
far.
McLarnin's ring debut was
rs q fIyweight. He became
so good that he was matched
with PanchO Villa, the cham
piOn. He OutscOred the Fill
Pine, but it got hiR nothing
because he was somewhat
overweight.
When he became a bantam he
quickly was rated next to Char
lie Rosenberg. He sought a
match, but it got him nowhere.
Charlie grew deaf to the chal-
lenges and meanwhile McLarnin
grew into a featherweight. While
q member Of that class he took
on-and knocked out - Jackie
Fields, who now is welterweight
ruler.
McLarnin soon galloped into the
lightweight ranks, htppt n 6
everybody worth while. He was
then given the opportunity to
gain the crown by being tossed
into the same ring with Sammy
Mandell. But Sammy was toe
elusive and McLarnin'S effort was
q failure.
Within a few months McLarnir
weighed beyond 142. He was
weller. He took on the boys one
by one and whipped them in q
hurry. Meanwhile Mand
wasn't impressed. He thought
he could "spot McLarnin six OF
seven pounds and repeat his
earlier triumph.
They fought in Chicago re-
Gently and the welterweight
McLarnin gave the light
weight Mandell q thorough
pasting.
IT want Fields now!" is Nc.
Larnin'S plea. He perhaps will
get him. Fields doesn't think
McLarnin ever can stop or beat
him again. He's willing to take
on Jimmy because he knows
there'll be a lot Of cash in it
for him. And McLarnin thinks
the same way-with the add.
ton:
1T had a crack at every title
except the bantam-yet I never
became a champion. But give
me Fields anywhere anytime, and
I'll be the welterweight champion.
For Jackie Is one boy I can whip
In every Start!"
