Graveyard Fights

Fort Washington is on a Fed
eral reservation. The Rockville
ring annual is purely a benefit.
But the Ritchie Coliseum bouts
last Monday were for pecuniary
gain, and while held on May
land State property, were very
properly within the jurisdiction
Of the Boxing Commission.
If you'd leave some promoters
alone, they'd stage fighting in a
graveyard and claim tax and
license exemption on the
grounds the fights were being
held in Gods Acre"
1t has always seemed to US
that one of the chief functions
of a boxing commission was to
stop those who would rather go
about the business Of promoting
fights indirectly and gamble
with losses than do things prop
erly and perhaps gain the re-
spect and patronage Of many.
Because of the methods ad-
hered to, because the Bicenten-
NAL was unwilling to have its
name linked with the Ritchie
coliseum promotion and be-
cause it was an ill-conceived
enterprise the affair deserved
to be exactly what 1t was-a
dismal flop artitically and
financially.

Oh, you mean that .hoof, hoof,

Quite a big boy isn't he? Still
he pranceS around and keeps

catcher you say who played with
Bloomington last year? Doesn't
look bad at that, now, what do
you think?
Doesn't Look Bad
Being a rookie, up for the first
time in the b. leagues, Maple
does not look SO bad. True, he's
a bit chubby, but what catcher
doesn't need weight in these days
of strenuous baseball.
-Gaple, in reality, is stockily
built, more than being chubby
Not a bit tall, he's about the
same size as Cliff Bolton in
he. ut, and maybe a little more
agg1 essive than the southerner
Cliff.
Maple, in the daily practice
sessions, has handled himself ex'
ceptionaIly well for a green
rookie. Although he has not had
the opportunity to throw the ball
around very often to date, his
arm appears to be strong and
accurate-something that's looked
for il every catcher.

Coach Lynn Woodworth is also
enthusiastic over the acquisition oi
George Beach and Mario Gregorio
former Tech students who did not
play in the interhigh series last
year, but performed with high
class sandlot aggregations. Beach
was considered one of the hardest
hitters on the sandlots while
Gregorio is said to have had sew
eral offers from various minol
league clubs which he declined be
cause he wanted to conclude hic
high school education.
Another prospect who bobbeo
up late last year but was in
eligible for competition is Jake
Fradin, 15-year-old lad, who has
natural ability according tc
Woodworth.
The pitching will be taken care
of by Garner and Silverman
This duo is capable Of holding
their own in fast company.

when the Owls are opposed in

On the other hand, Temple has
practically retained its 1881 line
up, which makes the Job harder
for Coach Eddie LaFond's pupils,
The showing Of LaFond's re-

Baltimore was heartening, par.

BY GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent


BILOXI, Miss, March 3.-With
Heine Manush, Sam West and
Carl Reynolds forming the out
field, Joe Kuhel, Buddy Myer, Joe
Cronin and OSSie Bluege, making
up the infield, and Roy Spencer
sure to catch the majority Of
games, If not all Of them, the line.
up Of the Griffmen can be said to
be practically settled for the com.
ing season.
That is providing none of those
named suffer injuries or fail to
sign before the opening game.
It's an unusual situation, par.
ticularly in the Griffmen's case,
in view of their third place fin.
iSh last year. But there are rea.
sons.
Reynolds Helps
Carl Reynolds is one. Had not
this individual been corraled dur.
ing the winter, Manager Johnson's
outfield would still be doubtful be-
cause of the battle for the right
field berth between Sam Rice and
Dave Harris.
But with Reynolds on hand
and sure to play, the outfield
problem is settled. With Sam
Rice and Dave Harris in the
role of utility men for the com.
ing season. Should one Of the
regulars" fail, Rice or Harria
will be in the game pronto, ano
to stay until the defaulting regu.
lars efforts warrants another
shot at his post.
Your correspondent believes
the infield is settled with Joe
Kuhel at first base instead Of
Joe Judge, because of the feeling
that the latter still will be traded
before the season is well under
way.
Whether Judge is traded or not
Kuhel is seen as the starting first
sacker because of his youth and
promise as big Lacquer.
Unusual Situation
I'm conclusion, only once before
have the Griffmen been known
to have Settled" on their lineup
early in the campaign. After the
1924 world series this situation
existed.
With Reynolds now on hand,
and expected to give the team
the right-handed hitting punch
it has needed so many years, and
with Monte Weaver present, what
might or might not the Griffmen
do this season with few breaks?

return for such bouts as they
walked out on last Monday. In

too, by playing ball with the
