MANAGERS GREED HURTS FIGHT GAME
 SAYS BEN LEONARD

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-What ails .he boxing game today, says the old maestro, Benny Leonard, is the greed of the modern manager, his haste to get into the "big money"
 They bring the boys along too fast" declared the former light weight champion. They try to shove him right to the top after he has had a dozen fights, and the result is many promising young men get crowned before they are well started.
 Now, when I was coming up, a boy had to work his way up slowly through the preliminary ranks, no matter how sensational record he piled up. But, when he once got there, he was ready, knew all the tricks, and there was no doubt of his fighting spirit"

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Feb. 27- Harold Red range, who has an- nounced his retirement from foot ball, declares that in his career he made only 'one big mistake"
 Strangely, it is not the "mis- take" college professors told him he was making when he quit the University of Illinois before receiv- ing his degree, to enter profes- sional football.
 My one big mistake was when I went in with Charlie Pyle in try ing to promote" said Grange. Charley and I had been making money, and when the money is coming in a couple of pals like we were are liable to throw cau- ton overheard and do things that are not sound.

CHEF WINNIE SIGNS
 TO COACH AUBURN
 THREE MORE YEARS

AUBURN, Ala, Feb. 27. Au- burns miracle man" is going to stay on the job for another three years,
 Chester Wynne, head football coach, who brought football out of the doldrums at Alabama Poly, has signed a three-year contract.
 Wynnes first year at Auburn was 1880, when he had group of football candidates that were not even fair material. Out of this he evolved a team that show ed signs of a comeback. In 1881 a better showing was made, and in 1892, led by the All-American Jimmy Hitchcock, Auburn won all it's games but one-that a tie with South Carolina.
 A Kansas farmer boy, Wynne possesses a striking personality that makes him a favorite with students and alumni His popu- larity at Auburn is such that when the word spread this winter that Wynne might leave to -Jach at Michigan State, students and oth- CTS left no stone unturned to keep him in the south.

Dempsey for the title at Toledo, Dempsey was outweighed nearly 70 pounds that day, more than Schaaf was outweighed by Car nera, but the victim was Willard No big man ever was punished more severely.
 It was Ruby Robert Fitzsimmons who helped the sporting fraternity coin the phrase the bigger they are, the harder they fall.' Ex- perience among the heavyweights generally has been that all- around ability and endurance de- clined in opposite ratio to size and weight. Camera, if an exception, up to the Schaaf fight, had never shown he possessed killing powers.

JUST HOT AIR
Oxygen Fails to Speed Up Sprinters-Test
 Is Made

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-The idea that an athlete-a swimmer, for instance-can be made into a sort of super-athlete by the application of oxygen was conclusively related in a series of tests here.
 Several prominent college and club stars, who volunteered for the experiment., didn't do bit better when loaded up with the element In fact, the sprinters didn't dc quite so well after they had been given a shot"
 It was decided that, in order to gain any benefits from the gas, il would be necessary for the athlete to carry a tank strapped on his back, with an attendant to tear alongside and regulate the flow That, it was conceded, would cause complications.

JESS WILLARD'S UPPERCUT

There can, of course, be in- stances where physical advantages such as those possessed by Camera constitute a menace.
 Jess Willard's uppercut, propell- ed by the tremendous bulk of the former heavyweight c h ampion seemed to me one of the most lethal wallops I ever witnessed in a ring. When big Jess knocked out Floyd Johnson one afternoon back in 1923 at the Yankee Stad- ium, all of us around the ringside thought the force of the final blow must have jared the smaller mans head loose. He recovered but was never the same in the ring again.
 But if Willard, whose punches did kill one opponent, had been barred because of his size, he would never have fought Jack

BETCHA THEY FIGHT

It is a good bet that Sharkey will fight Camera this June in New York, regardless of the precipitate attempt to make 8 fearsome spec tacle of Camera and any other heavyweights comparable to him in size.
 It is a tough spot, in many re- spects for Sharkey but he has every reason to go through with the match, not only because 1t has been Sgned for and arranged but also because it can dispel the idea that size makes any conclusive differences when boxers are in the 200-pound class or over.
