DISCUSS DRAF I
CHANGES

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec.
4 0.N.SO.-Discussion of proposed
changes in the draft agreement
faced the National Association of
Professional Baseball League con-
vention today as the members
opened the initial session.
While the minors will talk
about changes in the draft, it is
generally understood that these
alterations will not become effec-
tive without the consent of the
majors, and the majors have
stated in no uncertain terms they
will not accept any new agree
ment unless it provides for uni
VerSal selection of players.
And all indications are that
the three-day agreement will
end about as it started with
the present draft agreement,
according to the baseball
leaders here.

ITEM CD
STALE
By JACK DEMPSEY

Every coach or trainer Of
athletes constantly breaches the
doctrine Of train, train, train"
They are almost united in the
conclusion that unless a man is
trained to razor edge he hasn't a
chance. They generally attribute
defeat to lack of condition.
1t is my belief that in all forms
Of Sportive endeavor-boXing eSpe
ctally-that more defeats come
about through entertaining than
because of lack of it.
Harry Greh was perhaps the
greatest fighter for his height and
weight that the world ever knew.
He amazed through many years
because Of his startling endurance
and his limitless energy. How he
generated it always will be q
mystery because Greb, through
the last four years of his ring
lifetime, during which he must
have fought go to rs battles, did
not train much more for all OF
them than most fighters train
for one.
If Sam LangfOrd trained
more than 30 minutes for
any of the last 80 battles of
his career, he kept it a secret.
Yet Sammy, growing old even
then and blind in one eye,
was among the greatest bat
tiers that ever lived. Many
of the battles didn't last
much longer than 1t took
Sammy to land one solid
smash. But there we're Others
that were quite prolonged. Yet
LangfOrd, unframed, was able
to carry on and set the pace.
Those are just two Of a hun
dred instances, that could be cited
to show that failure to train has
not always been a handicap.
don't know why it happens that
way unless some humans are so
constructed that they do not need
to tighten muscles, gain accuracy,
speed and durability. .
But 1 do know Of many cases
where it would have been far bet
ter for some fighters to have fol-
lowed their example, rather than
to 20 through a strenuous train
ing campaign which burned them
out before the battle started and
sent them into the ring stale and
listless.
This training thing can be
overdone-and it is being con-
stantly overdone. An ambitious
boy, unless checked down by his
trainer, is certain to over train.
He will get himself overturned, in
stead of just tuned right, and
the result is that he loses his zip,
his power and the old fighting
spirit, and goes into the ring
either to meet defeat or make
q miserable showing in victory.
Sometimes it isn't the boys
fault. 1t rests with the
trainer. There are good
trainerS-and bad ones. Some

customers" The boy takes
the orders and follows each
one. He assumes that the
older man - this expert
trainer"-is guiding him in
expert fashion.
But the chances are that the
trainer is actually wrecking the
kids prospects by ordering too
much work of trying and diff
cult kind. The boy reaches the
peak Of condition-and should be
stopped there.

ROOSEVELT FIELD, L. l., July
25.-High Up among the fleecy
clouds which floated over this
haven Of human birds lurked an
enemy, a murderOus, invisible

her old foe who twice defeated her.
But Viola Gentry. known to those
who inhabit the airways Of this
plane-infested island as the tough
little kid Of the flying fields"
wasn't afraid. And she said SO in
her last interview-given to this
writer.
Tough luck?" she laughed as
mechanicians gave final twists and
polish to the jiggers and thinga-
hobs Of her plane, the Answer,
with which she hoped to set a new
refueling endurance flight record.
Tough luck? I've had plenty. But

Not Discouraged
Its no fun fighting a jinx. It's
no fun to have to stand by your
wrecked plane and watch others
reach the goal you had hoped for,
prayed for and worked SO aWfully
hard to attain.
But I'm not discouraged. No.
sir! I'm going to keep on trying
and flying.
Flights cost me on an average

flying with regular jobs. I've had
to earn money in between flights
to pay for my record attempts.
Put this down: I'm going to
break my streak of bad luck. And
I hope to break it with this flight"
She walked away toward her
plane and a few minutes later had
taken off with a co-piIot who was
to relieve her when she became
tired. Hours later her plane had
to come down when a heavy fog
made it impossible for the refuel-
ing plane to make contact with the
Answer. The old jinx had scored
again.
The Last Flight
Then Viola went up again with
Jack Ashcraft, an expert pilot. The
little plane climbed to 1000 feet
and began circling the field at that
height. The hours sped by. 1t be-
gan to look as though the old jlnX
was beaten at last. The black fog
Of night rolled across the field and
Viola, tired and worn, fell asleep
with Ashcraft handling the con-
trolls.
Creeping through the dark came
the enemy, Viola'S old JinX. The
Answers gas supply was running
low. Ashcraft dropped a note re-
questing the refueling plane be sent
up. The ground force could not
find the message. Ashcraft drop
ped another note bearing a desper-
ate plea for help.
The last Of the gas was consumed.
There was but one thing to do and
Ashcraft tried it-a dead stick
landing. But it wouldn't work. The
plane fell into a tailspin and came
hurtling down to crash on a dairy
farm near Old Westbury golf
course.
When help arrived Ashcraft was
