It is obviously untrue and I
would add that this does not
mean there are no scoundrels;
only that there will be no expose.
The more I see of the boxing
commission, the more I suspect
that it meets twice a week in
order that it can take twice as
long to be nothing. The boxing
commission appears to have been
very busy on this basis for the
last several weeks, although in
that time the closest scrutiny was
merited by at leat two fights that
I know of and quite possibly some
others that I don't.
Strange Case
There was, for example, the
strange case of the fighter who
was to take three knockdowns
and lose. Instead, he tok no
knockdowns and won. This
turned out to be very confusing,
especially to the Broadway
character who first took 5000
against $3.50 on the right man
but later called the bet back when
informed that the fight was
"bagged" for the other fighter.
There was also, I understand,
an intended push around" of a
very good and very honest fighter
in order that his worthy opponent
might be in a position to chal-
lenge for a worlds championship.
This one wound up nowhere, too,
because it seems that the fright
guys" didn't go in. I have no
way of knowing who the wrong
guys" Of the profession may be-,
except in a general way, the
testimony being that they are
blackguardS who go around inter
fering with other people by be-
ing respectable.
So those who are always say
ing that boxing is getting worse
are crazy.
It got worse long ago and then
went into slump.

is giving his greatest attention to
the defensive work of the line,
while the backs are being drilled
in defence against forward pass
plays. The offenSe is not being
neglected, but there is just enough
work in that line to keep in form,
while extreme efforts are being
made to carry defense play for
ward.
The Navy has generally been
noted for the staunchness Of its
defense even in years when the
team was not otherwise strong.
It has seldom had so many big,
strong fellows who seem to be
capable of making high type lines
men, but somehow the defense
has been far below the standard
this year. A determined effort
will be made to brace it before
the Navy faces Penn.
Names Lineup
Against Penn, the line will
probably start as follows: left end,
Murray (captain): left tackle,
Brooks; left guard, zabriskie;
center, Harbold; right guard,
Johnston; right tackle, Cutter or
Huff Clark; right end, Miller.
If Miller decides to start his
most efficient backfield against
Pennsylvania, he will use Baum
berger and Berries at the halves,
with Bill Clark at fullback, and
either Becht or Wilcox at quarter.

TEAM
IN ACTION

One game holds the grid spot
light for the scholastics today
when Eastern Highs heavy eleven
plays host to the Washington
and Lee High grid team, of Balls
ton, Va, in a tilt on the Eastern
field at $3.50 o'clock.
This is an annual game be-
tween the two teams, and al
though it is difficult to figure
which will win today, there is
every indication that an inter-
esting clash will result, as both
elevens have looked impressive
in their several other games this
season.
Eastern will start the same
lineup as that which faced
Western in the interhigh school
series last week. This means
that Tommy Nolan, quarterback,
and Ray Wierschem, linesman,
will be on the sidelines.
National Training School and
Alexandria High elevens staged
a torrid game at Alexandria yes
terday. The Trainers won, 6
to 0, when Gus Merryman tossed
a 30-yard pass to Ben Locker,
in the second quarter.
Alexandria threatened several
times after this score, but could
not penetrate the Trainers goal
line territory after the ball had
numerously been brought into
position. Leo Kiski's punting
for the Trainers also kept the
AlexandrianS from scoring.
