WHAT-Football j. c. Scorps IS.
Aggie Freshmen.
WHERE-Tucker Field.
WHEN-3 D. m. Friday.

With the exception Of three in
jured players, Billy Summers, Doc
Lawrence and Johnny McNabb, the
Brownsville Junior College Scorpions
we're primed today for their collision
with the A. e. NJ. Freshmen here al
3 D. m. Friday afternoon.
Having knocked owe two army
teams IN warming up exercises and
fully recognizing the strength OF ne
Aggie Freshmen. the Scorpions are
in excellent condition both physically
and mentally. This week has been
spent in polishing up the Scorp at
tack and ironing out minor defects
winch cropped out IN the army
games. The squad was TO go through
a light exercise this afternoon TO put
it on edge for the game Friday.
This morning Coach Roswell Hlg-
ginbotham and Bones Irving, Aggie
coaches, boarded a train at College
Sation with a squad Of % players.
The Aggie chances were enhanced
by the recent addition Of j. II. Gre
CORY who played fullback with the
TYLER high state champions last sea-
son. Gregory IS reputed TO be q dead
" kicker and pasSer and IN addition
Is a good ball carrier. He Will likely
be at the talback position when the
Scorps and Aggie sline-up for the
kickoff.
The team Higginbotham Is bring
ing here Is the best Aggie club that
has come to Brownsville in the past
three years. Hig has been busy de-
veloping a team this year. something
that he did not have heretofore. The
Fish usually brought a flock OF in
dividaul stars with little machine
work. This year it's going 10 be DIFF
ferent. according to word from Co..
lege Station.
The visitors know the local style
of play pretty well. Hig has seen Il
for two years and Irvine saw 1t last
year when he brought St. Mary's
University here.
Be that as ii will. Red Irvine will
likely have some new tricks to show
the boys.

To MEET
DAV|SCOURT

Promoter Joe Turner today ar
rived back from New York with
the announcement that he had
booked Dick Daviscourt and Rudy
Dusek as the feature for his
wrestling show on June 1S. Turner
stated there would be no wrestling
show this week and that he was
undecided whether to use the
Washington Auditorium or Clark
Griffith Stadium for his Dusek-
Daviscourt bout.
Daviscourt holds a decision over
Dusek, having beaten the latter
in a Baltimore bout. Dusek claims
the referee should have given
him the victory instead Of Davis
court. Since that time, Dusek
has sought many times to get a
return match with Daviscourt but
the latter has always side-stepped
the issue.
1t was only by the untiring
efforts of Promoter Turner who
made a special trip to New York
that the bout was finally ar
ranged. Local fans are promised
an interesting struggle as these
mighty grapplers have been at
odds since their Baltimore meet
ing.

SEES
WALKOVER

Sun Meadows walkover in the
fifth race at Belmont Park yes
terday was only a work out for
the Hits colt. The son Of Sun
Briar- Red Clover galloped strongly
for a mile in 1:46 2-5, and was
worked out for one mile and
three furlongs. He is ready for
the mile and a half classic on
Saturday, when he meets Twenty
Grand and Jamestown.
The SySOnby purse which
was carded as the secondary
feature on yesterdays card
had attracted four starters, but
at post time three had de-
clined the issue which left Mrs.
X. E. Hits Sun Meadows only
to gallOp around to pull down
all the purse.
It seems remarkable in these
days of depression why some
owner doesn't start his horse for
second or third money which
amounts to 5000 and 5000 re
spectively. There was no betting
on the race.
At New York where legalized
betting is not recognized a walk
over happens almost every year,
Among others, Exterminator had
two walkovers during his career.

Curley today was officially named
by the Boxing Commission to con-

Londos, the Greek God, in a de-
tense of his title recognized in
New York; against Ray Steele,
California.
The date has been set for June
20, but no particular ball park
has been selected.
The match should draw a ire
mendous gate. as Steele, in his last
effort against the bronzed Greek,
gave a wonderful exhibition, and
only lost when Londos brought
him down on the back of his head
so hard that Steele was knocked
unconscious.

Women golfers of the District
will take an especial interest in
the tournament scheduled Mon
day at the Woodmont Country
Club, because Mrs. Sidney Straus
of the Woodmont Club has again

in IS. even par. Billy Howell, Of
Richmond, Va, and defending
champion of the Columbia tourna-
ment used up 40 blows for the

w. L. young" Stribling, Georgian
heavyweight contender who meets
Max schmeling for the world
crown in Cleveland July 8, was
to stage his last ring workout in
broad daylight here this after

The next scheduled ring drill

Eight rounds Of sparring were
slated on the program today.
Strib's trainers, however, said
the challenger might add a
couple of twO-minute sessions
If the weather and the Georgian
both felt right.
Gene Stanton and Sunny Jim
Williams, .Strib'S most valuable
henchmen, who were A. w. .. L.
Sunday for the ring workout,
were to battle two rounds each
with the Georgian today.
The training camp was quiet
here yesterday. Pa Stribling,

tender did more or less as he
pleased after playing the re
quired nine holes Of golf and

{ EXPERIENCE
IS VITAL
FACTOR
BY JACK DEMPSEY

It takes plenty Of time, pa
tience and careful handling to
create a heavyweight champion
I mean an actual holder Of a
definite title.
In these days managers pick
up some husky youngster and
because he has weight, height,
reach and gameness. they try to
rush him to the top. But 1t
can't be done in that fashion
The boy must be seasoned by
experience before he ever can
be expected to demonstrate that
he is the top man of them all.
John L. Sullivan didn't have
to wade his way through great
group of heavies before he got
his big chance against Paddy
RYAN, But John was "a before
he was regarded as good enough
to win.
Jim Corbett started to box
when he was Is, was a wizard
at 21, but he was rs before
he was "ripe" for Sullivan.
Bob Fitzsimmons started box
ing in 1880-he was II then.
Seventeen years later he whipped
Corbett and took the champion
ship.
Jeffries Is Exception
After that we come to Jim jeff
ries who was an eXception-and
yet essentially he wasn't. jeff
was "a when he took Bob's mea-
sure in Coney Island. The record
books credit him with very few
fights before then. But the truth
is that Jim had been throwing
punches for almost 10 years. He
started boxing when he was IA
and at 16, when a young giant,
he mixed it with the neighbor-
hood lads; later taking on all
comers in small clubs near his
home.
Jack johnson was a Stevedore
in his middle teens and did his
first fighting as a battle royal
performer. He became a real
ringman in 1899. It wasn't until
II years later that he won the
real championship by beating Jim
Jeffries.
Jess willard was about the
quickest development Of all the
champions. He was picked up
in 1911 and won the title in
1915-a matter of four years.
Jess was aided in his quick
climb by the fact that he was q
giant in size and could take all
the punishment that Jack John.
son dealt out.
started fighting in the mining
camps in 1914 and was at the tor
within five seasons. Gene Tuu
ney, who got under way as {
pro of the prize rings in 1919
gained the crown in 1926-a mat
ter of seven years.
Seven Years Is Average
Thus it can be seen that th(
average number Of years needed
to develop a youth into a heavy
weight champion is about sever
and that there's little chance TO
anyone to hit the top until he i
at least a. That's something
ambitious managers should keel
in mind.
