After Gall came the period when the weight
of the brain was considered significant and
given much consideration by many students OF
the problem.
"It was assumed that outstanding personali-
ties should have heavier brains just as power
ful men had heavier hearts," Prof Donaldson
said.
THIS theory received many upsets, however.
In a very general way it was found to be
true but there were outstanding cases OF men
of great ability whose brains actually turned
out to be exceedingly lightweight.
Lord Byron the English poet, had, it is true,
a very heavy brain, the heaviest on record,
weighing nearly 5h pounds. On the other
hand Anatole France, French scholar and
writer Of great ability and renown, surprised
the scientists by having a very light brain,
which weighed only 2 pounds 4 ounces. which
is almost pound lighter than the brain OF the
average farm laborer.
Another small but powerful brain was Ma
poleon's Louis Agassiz the distinguished
American naturalist, had rather large head
but his brain was relatively lightweight, weigh
ing just over pounds.
Besides weight, brains have been studied and
measured from other aspects. The complexity
of the convolutions and assures Of the brain
has been sometimes considerd Of significance.
Another Of the early investigators of the
problem was Rudolph Wagner, who, in 1850,
made study Of three eminent scholars and an
artisan. Wagner, and the scientists who came
after him. found very little significant difference
between the brains of the intellectuals and Of
the average or less than average idividuals.

SCHUBLE FINDS
SELF At THIRD

A player for whom the Tigers
paid a fat sum is Heinie Soluble.
Heinie cost the club $35, 900, and
up to this season he did not seem
to show enough class to warrant
any serious consideration. Heinie
made more errors at shortStop
than any other player who ever
performed at that spot for the
Detroit team.
Soluble was showed back to the
Texas League last season, but he
was so bad at short that he was
shifted to third base. There he
found himself. This year he was
the last Of three third basemen
Bucky Harris tried out at the hot
corner Of the Detroit infield.
Soluble is hitting the ball now
and then. He is far superior as
a third baseman than he was at
ShortStop. His work for the
Tigers against the Athletics and
Yankees has been a revelation.
Weighing la pounds, none sus.

can whip Petrolle and he thinks
Chocolate can do the same for
Berg. Wise little title holder, he
wanted to leave the toughest as
signment until after the Petrolle
bout.
Weight. The great big bogey'
man! He never was more proml'
nent than he is in this instance
He never haunted two men like
he is haunting Billy Petrolle and
Jackie Kid Berg.
Since the day the first fist
fighter held up his hands, that
clan has been pursued relentlessly
by the weight voodoo man.
There have been some ring war
riors who never had to worry
about weight but they have been
few and far between. Weight has
been the milestone about great
fighters neckS.
Didn't Worry Much
Jimmy Wilde, Jimmy Barry, Joe
Walcott, Joe Choynski, and few
others didn't have to worry much
about their poundage, though
they did a lot Of fretting lest the
other fellow come in far above
them.
For many years Johnny Dundee
had the comforting satisfaction
that he was and always would be
safely below the lightweight limit.
But one day Jimmy Johnston or
some other friend advised Johnny
to forsake lightweights and stick
to the featherweight limit.
Right there Johnny'S troubles be-
gan. He had been lowering
around 130 pounds, but when he
had to make 1875 and stick to it.,
he found the task a bit irksome.
The real worries began when
Johnny won the featherweight
title from Eugene Criqui.
New Expression Coined
In the end Johnny had to re-
nounce the title. Jimmy Johnston
coined the expression "vacating"
the title. 1t was the first time
in this generation that a man had
to relinquiSh his crown. In quick
succession Kid Kaplan after him
and then Bat Battalino had to
surrender the same title. =

encounter but nevertheless enough
to make the event a financial
success.
Prices Reduced
With an eye to the condition
Of the public pocketbook, the
Garden has scaled down the
prices to a point calculated to
appeal to Mr.. Gus Fan. Seats
for the show range from $1.10 to
$3.50 as against $23 tops for the
Schmeling- -Sharkey contest. It is
estimated that if there is a sell
out next Monday night the house
will gross around $175.000. This
is fairly important money, these
days.
The Cuban bon bon, one of
the flashieSt fighters in the ring
today, is ruling at present a 6-to-5
favorite in the betting to win
over the rough and ready Berg.

Act Unjustifable

Washington fans who saw
the Monday brawl seem to be
pretty fair about Dickey's man
ner Of covering the plate, sew
eral even having said they
thought perhaps Reynolds was
q bit impulSive about using his
hands when coming into the
bag, which Dickey had a per-
feet right to protect.
Be that as it may, certainly
Dickey wasn't justified in re-
sorting to the tactics he did
and perhaps the long lay-off ne
is in for will give him a chance
to mediate and possibly come
to the conclusion that the base
ball diamond is no place for
pugiliStic maneuverS.
Only recently George Mo-
riarty became embroiled with
several White Sox players when
the boys refused to leave their
fighting spirit on the field, and
so, of course, if the umpireS are
to set the example, what can be
expected of the herd over which
they preside.
But much as we like to see a
high degree of competition be-
tween the players, we are by
no means in favor of fist fights.
Let them play hard for all they
are worth, but if possible let
them remember that fist fights
settle nothing and at best can
work nought but hardships on
the individuals concerned.

VISIONS
Of WINNING
HOME STAND
BY GARRETT WATERS

Winning a pair of baseball
games from the New York Yank-
eeS such as those of the now
memorable Fourth of July has in
stilled the Griffmen with new
hopes and aims.
Thus, as they settle back and
make ready to entertain the
Western clubs, Manager John
sons men are filled with the idea
of effecting some sort of come
back which, in the end, will find
them once more in the thick Of
the fight for this years pennant.
Because they have most always
played pretty well in their own
baliwick in the past, the Griffs
are figuring on taking" all OF
the Western clubs who are due
to appear here at this stage Of
the race and their "figurings"
are not merely pipe dreams but
visions that they firmly believe
will come to pass with little
extra effort on their part.
Must Halt Browns, Tigers
Oh, yes, they've thought of the
st. Louis Browns and Detroit
Tigers, who so upset them out
West last month. In fact Man.
ager Johnson's men have laid out
a platform of real revenge, and
it includes a specially arranged
clause where their best and most
vicious bit of fight and spirit
will be shown by the time of
these two teams arrivals.
Before the discussion gets any
further, it's a known fact that
the Griffs realize that they are
going to be handicapped by the
absence of Carl Reynolds, right
handed hitting punch in the out
field.
But despite this they're plan
ming towards making the best of
it in the hope that Dave Harris
and Sammy Rice will make able
substitutes until Renolds' return.
One other thing about the
situation, the teams pitching
promises to deliver in the games.
This Is based on the showing Of
MeSSrS. Thomas, Coffman, Wea.
yer, Brown, Marberry, Crowder
and Burke Of late which has
been encouraging even though
in one or two instances the yer.
diets have gone to the opposition.
Brown Is Star
Since June 25, for an example.
all of the aforementioned have
pitched good ball only to lose
out, when losses did occur, by
the one or two-run margin. And
as a feature, Lefty Lloyd Brown
has won six out of his last seven
games.
So it might be said that these
new hopes and aims as the stand
against the West is at hand are
not such bad aims to hold,
after all. At least, not if they
will help "our team" get into a
new winning streak which will
gain better position in the race
as the schedule unfolds.
And, oh yes, the Cleveland
Indians are here for the next
four days. And there'll be a
double-header out at Griffith
Stadium Saturday. Then will
come invasionS from Chicago, St.
Louis and Detroit in that order,
with the White Sox, Browns and
Tigers as the teams.
Come on. Grlffs, with those

Griff Puts in Claim

Dickey was probably pretty
sore all over in view of what
had happened Immediately be-
fore he struck Reynolds. The
Yankee catcher had tried to
trap Carl off third, the ball hit
ting the runners shoulder and
glancing off toward Joe SeweH
So Dickey's effort failed in an
attempt to get his man at third.
On top of that Dickey dropped
Sewell's throw home after Rey-
nolds rushed the plate, so no
body can blame Bill Dickey for
being plenty hot-everything
concerned.
But the manner he took to
demonstrate his state of mind
was unfair, uncalled for and
unforgiveable, and while it may
have put Reynolds out physi-
cally, it didn't put him out in
the box score, which is all ball
players should be interested in.
Meanwhile Clark Griffith
wants Dickey or the Yankees
to pay eynoldS' hos
pital and doctor bill. Why didn't
Griff add Reynolds salary while
he is out Of commission? It
would have been better for
Griff to have left those items
out of his telegram to Har-
ridge, particularly in view Of
the fact Griff made his mes
sage public.
The message could be inter-
preted as being more of a finan-
cial claim than a claim for
decency in baseball. It won't be
o big item at the most and could
have been adjudicated privately.
The Washington times., 1932-07-06

He is signed to meet Keed
Chocolate at 1877 and, in that he
came into ring at 40 the other
night for Mike Sarko, he will
make that weight, but it won't
be like breaking sticks to do so
Back of this effort to come in at
1877 is a vastly more important
assignment to make 1876 for Tony
Canzoneri - IF Jackie defeats
the Keed as he has done before
this. Win or lose, with Choco
late, Berg MUST be fretting about
that 135-pound limit.
If Jackie defeats the Keed and
Tony successfully defends his 1876
pound crown against Billy Pc
trolle, then the winners Of these
two bouts will meet for the title
in September.
It is a pretty safe bet that
Jackie will make the 1877, but will
he ever be able to make 1875 If he
has the good fortune to take the
Keed?
Stronger at $50
On the other hand, should
Petrolle make 1875 for Canzoneri
title at stake-will Berg be able
to get down to 1856 for Petrolle?
Billy might win the title, you
know, yet in the case of both
Berg and Billy, I doubt their abil-
ity to make that hateful 1885,
pound mark and be themselves.
Everyone knows that these two
warriors are stronger and more
formidable at 140 pounds, or even
a little heavier. Getting down to
the lightweight limit, which is a
cinch for both Chocolate and
Canzoneri, is going to be a dread
full ordeal. Billy and Jackie
might fight for that title eventu-
ally, but my off-hand guess is that
the Keed and Tony will hook up
for that bauble. Weight, the Old
Oregon boot!
Sure of PetrOlle
It is significant that Canzoneri
refused to take the match with
Chocolate until after he had met
Petrolle. From that I would
gather that Tony is certain he

PROMISES BIC
ATTENDANCE
By HARRY COSTELLO
California, here We cOme!"

Thousands and thousands Of
persons all over the world, the
vast majority of them here In
the United States, are speaking
those words. +
They mean it, too, for they
have already bought and paid
for transportation from their
homes to Los Angeles. The oc-
casion is the 1882 Olympiad.
Probably no group Of persons
can so accurately predict success
or failure for an event Of ma
tionaf or international import
ance as can transportation Of,
ficialS.
Success Is Seen
These officials Of railroads,
steamship lines, bus lines, and
other transportation companies,
point out that the longer tricks to
Los Angeles have already started.
They predict that peak of the
movement on Los Angeles will be
reached about July IS, and that
1t is obvious to them that the
Olympic games at Los Angeles
will be witnessed by the largest
crowd ever to see an Olympiad.
All Of which is good news for
those persons who are anxious to
see Americas Olympic efforts
crowned with success.
Certainly there is every reason
to feel that those persons who
attend the Los Angeles Olympiad
will see the greatest athletes of
all time in action.
Recent record breaking per.
formances have been registered
not only by our leading American
athletes, but by foreign stars as
well.
A recent survey indicates that
every track and field world record
IS IN danger in the Los Angeles
Olymp1ad, while all Olympic
records are almost sure to be
smashed into snithereens.
These conclusions are reached
by checking the average per.
formances Of leading Olympic
athletes Of more than a dozen
nations.
Color to Feature
There is no doubt that Los
Angeles will make the 1882 Olyn-
p1ad far and away the most color
ful ever staged. For months the
business men of that city have
been working overtime, preparing.
Officials of the State Of Califor-
mia are lending every aid. When
Los Angeles promises anything, it
keeps that promise. It promises
the most colorful and spectacular
Of all OlympicS.
America now appears certain
Of victory in the track and field
meet, which will be one Of the
many spectacular events. Athletes
Of the United States thus far
have shown superb form, indicat.
ing that enough winners will be
included on the American team
to take top honors from contend
ing nations.
Transportation officials predict
that more than 800 visitors will
be in California for the 1882
Olympiad.
