Only Tuo Modern Scrappers
 Can Boast Perfect Record

LOS ANGELES, March 23.-Since the Marquis of Queens5urg rules were adapted there have 6een only two 1000 per cent fighters-Jimmy Barry and Jack MeAuliffa-in the opinion of George Hussey, Los An geles boxing authority, statistician and follower of the fight game for forty years.
 After two and one-half years of painstaking work, Hussey has fin ished what he claims is the first accurate rating card for the great fighters of modern fistic history.
 Hussey rates percentages on vic- tories and losses. He takes no reckoning of draws, fouls and mo- decision bouts.
 52 Bouts Without Loss
 McAuliffe, holder of one Of the perfect records, fought 52 fights, winning 31 decisions, losing none. He scored nine knockouts, had nine draws, no fouls either way and participated in but three no-decis-

M'LARNIN AND CORBETT BOUT
 IS IN MAKING

LOS ANGELES, March 28.-Jim- my McLarnin and Young Corbett III will meet in a ten-rounder for the welterweight title here in May.
 Jack Doyle made the announce ment followed hectic-days of ar- guing with Corbett's manager. Lar ry White, who insisted on a $50,- 900 guarantee for his fighter.
 McLarnin had been signed weeks ago when out here with his man ager, Pop Foster
 Only one hitch may bob up-a promise of Whites to Jack Kearns that Corbett would give Fields a return bout before meeting any other challenger.
 The State Athletic Commission may step into the argument, and then again, Kearns may waive his rights if assured that he gets the winner of this fight.

PREDICT WORLD TITLE FOR GIRL TENNIS PIE NOM

LONDON, March z5 - Britain has hopes that real English "Lenglen" has at last appeared on the tennis horizon.
 Miss Sheila Hewitt, 18-year old daughter of Rear-Admiral Hewitt, is considered by many the most promising English lawn tennis player of postwar years.
 For the second time within eight days Miss Hewitt beat Fraulein Clly Aussem, the German girl Wimbledon victor of 1881, in an important Riviera women's sin gles final.
 The second triumph was achiev- ed at Nice, when the Fraulein was beaten 6-4, 6-3.
 Unlike the great majority of English players, Miss Hewitt has hitherto refrained from tourna- ment play, preferring intensive private practice.
 Many English sports writers be- lieve she would give even the re- doubtable Mrs Helen Wills Moody a run for her money, and predict the Wimbledon championship as her ultimate attainment.

OCEAN RACE
 SHOULD BE
 BIG THING
Annual Event Promising Provided Prosperity
 Doesn't Interfere

BALTIMORE, March 28. = If prosperity will just remain around the corner a while longer, this years ocean race for sailing craft stands a good chance of being suc- cessful.
 It sounds paradoxical, but it's true.
 According to Richard McSherry, of Baltimore, an official in the event, when business is in the dol drums, owners of yachts have plenty of time to devote to racing and the entry list is large.
 On the other hand, a revival of business probably would result in reducing the entries.
 The race is an annual event from New London, Conn. On even years it has Bermuda as it's des- tination. On odd years it alter mates between Cape May and Gib- son Island. Gibson Island, this

Maybe They Knew Best

It won't make any difference to him when he lakes up his new job at head football coach at the University of Chicago, but Clark Sh aug hn sy's record, as now strengthened out by Lou McKenna of St. Paul, shows he did not play high school football or basketball before ent te T ing Minnesota and making a name for himself as a player under the late pr. H. L. Will Hams.
 It seems that they didn't sponsor either sport at North St. Paul high school until after Clark departed, in 1908. In view of Shaughnessy's s later development as a one-man wrecking crew on the gridiron, high school fears may have been justi- fled.

 SUPPLY OF MILK

WOOSTER, Ohio, March 28.-Ice water for bossy in the winter time is a poor way to increase the creamery check, says an Ohio ex- periment station bulletin, issued re- gently.

. The University of Virginia has a 65-year-old boxing coach, John s. LaRowe, but hasn't the slightest idea of emulating the University of Chicago's example by retiring him under an age limit or for any other reason.
 In the first place LaRowe is the Father of Boxing not only at the Virginia institution but in behalf Of interco l le g i ate punch-tossing throughout the South. He furnish ed the funds a dozen years ago for Virginia's first boxing team to take trip to Philadelphia to meet Pennsylvania.
 LaRowe was prominent in the de- velopments leading up to the first Southern Conference boxing tour nament in 1927, which Virginia won, and has coached champion ship Cavalier teams four times al together, including successive title winning aggregations in 1881 -32-33. He's getting better with age.
 Virginia's boxing record, regard ed with as much enthusiasm as anything the Cavaliers have done on the gridiron or in any other sport, shows total of A dual meet victories out of 64 contested in 12 years.
 The Virginia fisricu1fers prefaced their conference this winter by out fighting the Navy boxers, coached by Spike" Wedd, 5 to 3, marking the first setback for the sailors in their home ring in 14 years

Question of Horsepower

The college athlete who finds it difficult at times to believe that consistent devotion to training reg ulations pays dividends, should lend an ear to the story often told by the late "Pooch" Donovan of Har- yard.
 AS Frank Ryan relays the yarn Harvard had a great runner work ing under "Pooch" who had been beaten several times by an athlete of another college. He went to the coach one day and said to him How is it that I train so faith fully and yet cannot win against 'So-and-So, who I know and you know does not keep the same rules? Is this strict training of use to me?"
 To which Donovan replied: "You have fifty horsepower motor driving you when you run. He has sixth horsepower motor in him If you operate on 100 per cent efficiency and he operates at 85 he win still lick you. Your hope | is to get him some day when he can operate on only 80 per cent ef- 1 ficiency. Then you will lick him." Frank doesn't say so, but let's assume the proper ending: "P. s He did"

Judge Meyer suspended the ex- ecution of the three months sen- tence, but ordered that the woman be committed for IS days.
 Miss Tessier was arrested Satur- day morning in the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes after she had at- tempted to steal $2 from the pocketbook of Mrs. Anna BartolinO of Thomas street. She was detected In the act by the sexton of the church and turned over to Super

 We arc like people fighting a great war. And that war is de- pression. The innocent victim is | the youth of this city and of the
 nation. Thousands of them are daily being morally wounded and | spiritually scared through no fault of their own. These young | men are the future economic and | physical hope of this city and of the nation. Now more than ever | the Y. M. C. A. Is their protector, comforter and advisor. The work of the r. NJ. c. A. is as vital for young men to-day as it once was for stricken men on foreign battle
 fields A different but none the less cruel battle field is now in our very midst. The work of the '. M. | C. A. for and with youth must go on all along the economic front, full strength and in all it's branches.
