Reaches Boxing Peak in 1881

The highlight of his early career was
Schlossberg then sold his contract to
Sharkey and Johnny Buckley.
His best year was in 1881 when he
fought 19 Of his 70-odd professional
battles and entered the big money
class. His earnings for that year have
been estimated at 100000. The next
year found him headed for the cham
pionship heights. He put together a
long string of knockouts before meeting
three consecutive defeats from Unknown
Winston, Stanley Poreda and Max Baer
Schaaf wiped out the first two setbacks,
but was never rematched with Baer,
who gave him his first knockdown.
Sonar was such perfect specimen
OF pugllistlc Drawn that he served as
the model for the trophy that Gene
Tunney bequeathed TO the boxing game
when he retired as heavyweight cham
pion.

critics by moving back to the Wrentham

quarters.
Several weeks ago Schaaf was seized
with influenza while training for the
Carnera bout. He stubbornly refused
advice to have this match called of or
postponed.

~ OSTON, February 14.-The call Of
X the prize ring which lured him i'm
to his death, was first heard by
Ernie Schaaf early in his child
hood , at Elizabeth, N. j., where the
blond Viking became the first born of
seven children of Ernest and Lucy
Schaaf on September q, 1909.
Elizabeth, during Schaafs early years,
was in frenzy over the proweSs of two
other native sens Mickey Walker and
George Ward, and their success inspired
most of the youngsters OF that city.
Large even at birth, when lie weighed
almost IL pounds, Schaaf was better
able TO emulate these Elizabeth heroes
than any of his playrates, and so eager
was he to do so that he quit school at
the age of l3 and obtained employment
in factory. When he was Is he Joined

TECH CONSIDERING
SPRING GRID WORK
Loss of Seasoned Players
Makes Drills Desirable,
Says Lone Coach.
BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR.

TOR the first time in the history
~ of the institution Tech High
School seriously is considering
holding Spring foot ball prac-
tice this year. Coach Hap Hardell
says that his squad will be called out
March / for three weeks training,
should the idea be adopted.
1t is because Hardell will have to
handle the large Tech squad alone next
Fall that he is considering the Spring
drills. Last year he had Artie Wond-
rack, now at Eastern, to aid him. An
other reason for the proposed early
practice is that Tech, which will be
striving for its sixth straight public
high school title the coming Autumn,
has been harder hit than usual in
losses of seasoned material. Hardell
feels that the job Of teaching the large
squad, including many boys of limited
experience, everything in the Fall
would be an undertaking he couldn't
handle.
Should he not have Spring training,
Hardeu says he would be forced to cut
the squad. He asserts he would rather
have his protegeS defeated than reduce
the number of players.
No player would be required to come
out for Spring training. It would be
purely a voluntary proposition, with no
drudgery attached, says Hap.
TOOLNEss under fire is the quality
~ a basket ball coach values most
in his charges, according to Orrel
Mitchell, who not only has made good
as tutor of Gonzaga's court teams, but
also has earned reputation as one
OF the best, officials of the game in
this section, which makes his opinion
on basket ball matters important.
Give me the player who is re-
26-year- -old curly-headed Mitchell. Hes
my idea Of a coach's dream"
There are quite few such players
around Washington now" says Orrel.
There always are some to bg found"
Among the tosSerS that come to his
mind as possessing the quality to an
admirable degree are Bozie, Berger, for
mer University of Maryland all-Amer-
lea basketer; Everett Russell, who last
season famed on the hardwood for
Tech and now is captain of the fresh
men quint at Virginia; Bob Freeman,
who played with Western and is now on
the Penn varsity; Carroll Shore of the
present Central High team: Tommy
Nolan of Eastern, Red DAILY of Tech
and Jack Sweeney of Gonzaga.
TECH and Gonzaga clash on the
L Tech court and Central and
Georgetown Prep face at Garrett
Park tomorrow afternoon at $3.50 o'clock
in attractive schoolboy basket ball games
hereabout. Tech and Central are fig-
ured to win.
Early last month Tech conquered
Gonzaga. 1913, at Gonzaga, and Cen
tral walloped Georgetown Prep three
weeks ago, 4l-17, on the Central court.
Gonzaga's basketers battled stoutly,
but bowed to their old foes, Georgetown
Prep, 1921, in the I street school gym
nasium. The Purple gave the Garrett
Parkers much harder fight than in
their first clash this season, when
Georgetown Prep was 32-l6 victor.
Gonzaga outscored the Little Hoyas
in the second half, 1913, after the latter
led at the intermission, 1876.

n Jew YORK, February IA H).-
M With few exceptions, coaches
Y and officials have given un-
qualified approval to the two
changes the Foot Ball Rules Commit
tee has made in the playing code for
1888.
Comment was centered mostly on
the new sideline zone rule, providing
automatically for the ball to be brought
in 10 yards whenever it goes outside
or Is downed within the sideline zones
Capt. Lawrence M (Biff) Jones of
Louisiana State was about the only
objector. He thought the new rule
would lower the value of strategy and
kicking accuracy"
Its benefits. on the other hand, we're
described by both H. C. (Curly) Byrd
Of the University of Maryland and wal
lace Wade of Duke.

the foot ball rules for
i next year, while appar-
emily inconsequential,
should be of great benefit to the
game" said Fielding Yost, Mich
igan's director of athletics, when
he dropped by here for a short
stay on his way to West Virginia
from the meeting of the Rules
Committee.
The change in regard to zoning an
area 10 yards wide along each side
line the length of the field and making
1t impossible to start play in that
area will help the game a good deal
from two angles" continued Yost. In
the first place it will serve as a protec-
ton to players, because under this regu-
lation there should be no pushing and
hauling to get outside or to prevent
man getting out of bounds, and there
should be much less tackling out Of
bounds.
I'm the second place. 1t will make
play more interesting because it does
away with the necessity for wasting
a down to get the ball out of bounds
in order to have it brought back in Is
yards.
THE change in regard to clipping
from behind, to my way of thinking,
should come pretty close to eliminat-
ing that bad feature of foot ball
I'VE did not hurt the game in the
least, as we would have done had some
of the changes advocated been adopted.
We felt especially that any curb placed
on the forward pass at this time would
be unfortunate; therefore did not act
on that Several minor suggestions
we're submitted to a subcommittee for
further study"
nROBABLY no other man in the
L country is more imbued with the
ideals and love of foot ball than
Yost: He virtually has given his life
to the development of the game and
he thinks it and talks it as much as
any man living And, rather remark
able to mention. Yost never hesitates
to give the younger coaches the benefit
of his experiences. The writer has seen
him sit for hours explaining the faults
OF play and building up theories of
both offense and defense Many q
young college coach and high school
coach has been benefited through Yost's
unselfish interest.

night carrying with him a
wad of color, a load of flash and
the reputation of being the best

He is Pete Sarron, barrel-chested
mite, an alternate for Fidel La Barba
on the 1924 Olympic team, and the pos

Those in the know say he is good
I've never seen him peddle his fistic

Pete meets frankie De Angelo, a
wispy sort of fighter who can move
out of the way of fast traffic him

boat hooks when necessary.
Well push aside Pete's claim to the
"featherweight championship of the
South" There have been too many
f1uky Southern champions to give that
any sort of hearing. It's a joke in
pugilism.
Pete has a better chance to his claim
for pugilistic fame on his record as an
amateur, his showing in Australia and
New Zealand, and the work he has
done against some good pros which
includes Davey Abad, Midget Mike

came back with flock of wins, one
over Champion Donovan, the crown

the New Zealand and the Australian.
His most important fight since
his return was with Fidel La Barba,
the Pacific Coast sensation, who
just lost prestige to Seaman Wat
son, the British fighter. Pete lost
to Fdel. according to newspaper
decisions, but he still was in there
