XIII. USE OF THE LOB
The fundamental function Of
the lob is defense play. In mod
ern tactics there is a tendency
however to specialize it's use in
offense play. Consequently
much controversy has arisen
over the proper employment of
the lob.
Lob Important
The old adage, when in
doubt-Lob!" is quite sound
provided the player does not let
his doubts become an excuse for
lazy play and thinking. Better
say when in danger-Lob!"
If at any time during play you
have qualms as to your safety,
a lob will never do you harm.
It always gives the player time
to regain lost position and bal
ance. It is vital that the player
know when he is on the de-
fensive and when on the Of
fenSiVe.
With that knowledge as a
foundation it should not be diff
ficult to choose your time to lob.
Consider first the job from
the defensive standpoint. If

American teams.
The Washington times., 1931-08-11

you are in any way out of
position and your opponent Is
pressing-you are in danger.
Danger is doubt and uncer.
tainty. Never hesitate to lob.
Immediately thereafter, regain
your position at the center of
the base line.
Practice
When your opponent rushes
into the net, decide first on
your chances of passing him
with a drive, if there is any
doubt as to your chances, then
-lob-deep. Practice lobbing
the ball from all positions of
your court. Keep the bali close
to the back line. Practice drop
ping them in the corners. Learn
to lob we'll with forehand and
backhand.
The lob Is used in attack to
break up an opponents posi-
tion at the net. Watch for the
player to get too close in to the
net and lob. Against a player
at the net useful routine to
follow is. a drive, a lob. two
drives. lob, or whatever other
combination you might choose.
The lob is used most in
doubles play and is considered
as an offensive weapon.

Yes, sir, revenge IS Lnelr wal
whoop, because the teams in this
sector certainly handed them q
jolt when they were out here last
June.
Right off the bat they mean to
sock the Chicago White Sox,
whom they play today in the first
Of a four-game series. The GriffS,
it will be remembered. we're riding
on the crest of a wave when they
hit this town last June.
They were only one game be-
hind the pace-setting AS, with
the White Sox in last place and
playing miserable ball. Things
looked bright for a clean sweep in
the five-game series on tap. The
capturing of the lead looked good
also.
JOlted GriffS
But the Sox up and threw a
wrench into the hopes and plans
Of Manager JohnSon's men. In
other words, they gave them the
severest jolt they could have ever
received, taking three OF the five
games scheduled.
These SOx victories started
the Griffs in their now ia
nous slump. Seldom before, if
ever, has a last place team like
the SOx of those days, defeated
fast travelling aggregation
like the Griffs in the manner
in which they did last June.
That's why the Griffs are
emitting revengeful war whoops
at this time. They want to beat
the West badly, they want to
beat the Sox, they are glad that
the Sox are to be played first
on this trip as they mean to
make them their first victims.
To sweep the series with Manager
DOME BuSh's men will be salts
faction supreme. Victories will
set them in the right mood 10

In the week.
Manager Johnson, mindful OF

hurler for today's game. He
feels big Fred will win If no other
pitcher on his staff will.
FirpO Determined
If Marberry has anything to
do with it he'll win, so he says.

be so troublesome" ne puts it,

RING MARKET I
LOWER THAN
EVER i.
BY JACK DEMPSEY,

The American sock and block
market seems to be almost as bad
off now as the American stock
market. New lows. especially in
the heavyweight group. suddenly
have become the rule instead of
the exception.
Prior to July the home folk
! felt tHc.t it was certain that the
title would be restored to the u.
s. A. For it has Bill Stribling as
one of the "go-getters," with Jack
Sharkey looming in the back
ground. Each of these two boys
were regarded as good enough to
belt Max Schmeling into the dis
card. But now gloom spreads
thick over the land.
The German. regarded by so
many as merely a pushover for
Stribling, made punching bag
= out of the Georgian.
Max Flashes
Rated merely as a stiff punch
err, Schmeling flashed before that
Cleveland audience a brand Of
Seneralship and a two-fisted at
tack which amazed them and
eventually enabled him to blast
Stribling out of the heavyweight
picture perhaps for all time.
Yet there was still much COM
fort. for the U. S. A.-and hope.
= That hope was vested in Shar-
key. A year ago he had tOyeG
with Schmeling through four
rounds, only to lose through the
basing of q blow that landed
foul
It was thought that Sharkey
was an good in 1881, as in 1880
and that this year or next he still
would have the edge on The Ger
man and bring back the crown.
But Sharkey. wanting exercise
or needing money. agreed to meet
i Mickey Walker. 1t was bad ar
rangement for the Bostonian. He
had nothing to gain in victory
and a tremendous lot to 3urren-
der in defeat. The result was a
draw. That makes the much
smaller Walker as good as Shar-
hCys oA1N I1AAkCA ACnAAC nA SuC OAAe@V "A
Jack couldn't beat Walker how
can he now be expected to take"
the vastly improved Schmeling?
LOughran Still There
In the background is Tommy
Loughran-the only member of

hasn't been belittled by recent
defeat or a draw.
So there's gloom in the U. s. A.
And not without reason. For the
situation is this Stribling, stop

Radio Corporation Of America Victor
 In Legal Contest

Washington, June 24-(UP)-The federal radio commission to-day up- held the Radio Corporation of America In it's plea for retention of the hundreds of licenses under which the corporation conducts its vast communications and broadcast- ing system.
 In rendering its decision, the com mission held that the Delaware court decision to the effect that the Radio Corporation of America had acted in restraint of trade in the sale of Vacuum tubes. did not furnish the commission grounds for refusing to renew R. c. A. licenses.
 Commissioners Saltzman and Sykes dissented from the majority opinion.
 The commissions decision was an- nounced in the following statement:
 Tt is the opinion of majority of the commission that the judgment of the district court of Delaware in the case of Arthur D. Lord, receiver. against the Radio Corporation of America (number 670 in equity), IS not such judgment as is described in Section 13 of the radio act and 1t is hereby decided that renewal licenses should not be denied the applica nts heard by the commission on June IS, 1931."
 The dissenting opinions of Com missioners Saltzman and Sykes were given with the decision of the ma jority and their preparation was be- lieved to have caused the commits sion to delay its announcement until to-day.
 The three commissioners compris- ing the majority were Commission CTS Robinson, Lafount and Starbuck.
