Bill Stribling pushed himself

upon two important occasions in
the past.
Once he had the light heavy.

fumbled through that one.
And lost. Again opportunity

"blew" that decision. Strib
was accused Of being a little
too careful in both instances.
Yet the real truth is that bad
luck wrecked him on both nights.
He was sick for "a hours before
he met Berlenbach-Sick and
weak and lost nearly five pounds
in the "a hours that preceded
the fight. He was dead on his
feet against the German-Amer-
ican-couldn't get out of his own
way. And Berlenbach won by
the simple process of banging
Stribling'S body in the almost
constant clinches.
It seemed to me that he was
out in front of Sharkey as the
fourth round ended in their
Miami 10-rounder in 1929. After
that Strib went on the defense,
rallying but once and that in the
ninth. He was condemned for

SEVERAL FAIL

RULES

HULLU
Howdy, fans! From the looks of
the mail this morning, you are
sure in great fettle! The 1880
Babe Ruth All-America contest
is going over big. Let's have more
teams, fans. Send in your selec-
tions now.
Here is a mighty good team,
but will go into discard because
the sender failed to sign his
name to his selection. Gave some
very logical reasons for his
choices, too. Here's his team:
Hodapp..2b Reynolds. RI
C0chrane, Q LlndstrOms ID
Gehrlg, lib CFOnln' Ss

Klein, Of IMarOerV'p

whether or not player has to
be leading his division in the

slider is really valuable to MS
team should be used.
A young lady who forgot
her address sends in a dandy
looking team-LOla KeaSchi,
If YOU want your team to get
q chance you'd better let us
have your address. LenOre
Stinen asks who is the best
shOrtst0p, as she can't make
uD her mind. That's her job.
Here is team which carries
the colors of one who has thrown
away his chances by signing q
fake name.
Frisll, 2b TraynOF, 3b
Cuyler, RI AVerilI, CT
Terry 1b jackson, IS
Simmons, le Grove, y
COchrane, LuIue,p
A good looking team, what?
And a good lineup. And he
signs himself "The Daddy OF
Baseball" wouldn't he feel like
a granddaddy if this particular
lineup was selected by the old
Master?
The war over the outfielders is
still waging and you'd be sur
prised at the great difference Of
opinion shown by fans who alb
solutely agree on all the other
positions. Team after team ap-
pears and the same name filling
each of the other six places, but
when outfielders are chosen,
WOW!
Well, well! For the first time
this year, Willie Kamm is selected
for the "hot corner" in one Of
the teams forwarded in an effort
to grab off one of the free trips
to the worlds series in the Babe
Ruth All-America baseball team
contest.
Can't see why he hasn't
got the call before n0w-he'S
good man, and fairly well
up on the table. Everyone
seemed to like him last year.
Terry is still leading as first
choice for first and Cronin and
jackson are running neck and
neck for short. Honestly, fans,
this is the closest race we've ever
seen. First one is a bit ahead
and the next day the other takes
the lead. And neither draw very
far in front.
Excerpts from two letters:
"CrOnin has no equal in
either league-hiS fielding, hit
ting and baSe-running are sim
ply superb"
jackson is not only the best
shOrtStOp in either league
he is the only real one. And
what he has done for his team
Is simply nObOdy'S business"
And so goes the controversy.
1t proves that you fans are really
searching out the faults of the
individual, and, if found wanting
to too great an extent, discard
ing him in favor of one who
really stands the ordeal of analy.
sis.
Incidentally, if you read The
Times sports pages every day
you'll find a lot of interesting
and helpful information in the
baseball yarns that appear there.
Just remember though-thiS is
no guessing contest but real
test of baseball judgment and
knowledge. The winner won't be
lucky. He'll simply be some boy
or girl who knows the old game
thoroughly.
The Washington times., 1930-08-12

Stribling's booming right scored
heavily in his sensational knock
out victories over Otto Won Porat
and Phil Scott.
Possibly w. L. has decided to
give the fans a run for their
money. If so his case will strik-
ingly resemble that of Old Mike
McTigue, one-time light heavy
weight champion. Oddly enough
it was Stribling's disputed fight
with Michael that first brought
him recognition.
For years McTigue stalled and
clinched his way into widespread
disfavor. Then he lost his crown.
Almost Immediately he did q
right about face. Coming out Of
the moth balls he rapidly de-
veloped into one of the greatest
crowd pleasers in the ring before
age and hard fights slowed him
down. z
Though he has been fight
ing for years and has ap-
pcared in q record number of
fights since entering the ring, Z
w. L. is only 26. Therefore
his experience should stand
him in good stead when he
starts his championship drive.
Only last February Stribling
turned down a $4,000 offer to
meet Vittorio Campolo in semi
final to the Sharkey-Scott bout
at Miami. At the time it was
thought he was making a mis-
take.
Yet when these two come to-
gether In New York this fall they
should draw one Of the best gates
recorded in the big town for
! many moon.

I seemed undecided whether to smile
or be angry.
"You are much too wise, little
lady," he declared with conviction.

Marjorie But you see where I am.
How you did take that house
down, Mary Della! I was as proud
of you as if I had been responsible
for your success"
"They sure we're nice about ap-
plauding, all right" Mary Della said,
wondering how applause could mean
success. You don't know how the
orchids helped, Bob. I never got
closer to an orchid than the outside
of a florists window, you know"
THE chauffeur had followed
4 Roberts directions, and in
struction; he now pulled up to the
curb before the Georgian on East
Main street, and held the door open
while Mary Della and Bob stepped
out gayly.
Half an hour later they entered
the car again, and Robert specified
the shortest route to the Chubb
fiat.
Straight ahead to the traffic
light and turn right, I'll show you
the house, Merrick."
The cumbersome vehicle edged
back into the middle of the street
and swung around the Soldiers
monument.
"Why so serious, fair one?"
Robert asked lightly. "Tired?"
Mary Della did not answer at
once, but casually surveyed the
luxurious interior of the car, and
then gazed out at the familiar shop
windows.
t'No, Bob, I'm not tired. was
just thinking what coward I am
"Coward?"
"Well, what else? I get fresh and
lead you into a jam. Then when
you try to be decent to nae, I don't
thank you and let you go on your
way, but I hang on, snatching at
every chance to be with you, telling
you we've got to call it quits, and
then almost falling in your arms
when you show up again.
Robert stared at her, confused.
What are you talking about,
Mary Della? I don't seem to
gather"
Don't be like that, Bob" she re-
piled quickly. "You know what I
mean. We don't belong to the same
sort, Bob. Take me here in this
mean-looking bus, for example, I
don't fit the picture and I ought
to be ashamed to sit here like a
fine lady, when by rights you should
be with the girl you're going to mar
ry. She's used to this kind of
racket and she's one of your kind.
See what I'm getting at?"
Robert spoke to the chauffeur
and closed the glass slide between
them as the machine came to a stop
before the Chubb door.
Suppose, Mary Della, there was
no other girl" he said quietly.
1--WE can't suppose that, Bob.
There's the difference between me
and you, money and society and ed
ucation and a lot more. And be-
sides, there is another girl"
But just suppose there wasn't, I"
he insisted, nodding to the chauffeur
who wasawaiting to open the door.
Then there'd only be that big
difference between u.s." Mary Della
replied, stepping to the sidewalk.
But that's more than plenty, Bob"
