Tow Picks Up Weight.

AT THIS stage the irrepressible
~ James Erwin entered, seeking a
sparring partner for Les Ken
nedy. Tow more than filled the bill.
He Immediately rivaled and then sue
ceeded Kennedy as No. | ranking
heavyweight of the Erwin stable of
scrappers.
But it was only through Erwin's
pleas that the tall youngSter, now
only % years old. was given a chance
In the; tournament designed by Match
maker frankie Mann Erwin went
far out on the fence before a glove
was thrown in the tourney and pre-
dicted that Tow, if allowed to COM
pete, would win. If Tow had been
Erwin's only entry this might have
been taken with grain Of salt. But
Jimmy also had Kennedy entered and
as far as the local public was con-
cerned Les had a far better chance
than Tow.
According to Erwin, the Tow who
will fight Barry Tuesday will be much
improved over the boy who stopped
that terrific left of Knights and that
sledge-hammer right of Gallaghers.

weighs 200 pounds. whereas he was

LIKELY TO AMAZE
BRITISH FOEMEN
SWats Two Drives in Play
Here That Carry 255
Yards or More.
BY WALTER r. McCALLUM.

q ONE great stunts have been
done around Washington
= in the past by way of
mauling a golf ball into
far-away pastures, but when all
the records are in YOU will find
few who will speak of the recent
featS of Lawson Little with any,
thing but reverence.
Lawson was in our midst for about
a week, banging a little white sphere
around the local fairways with ease
and nonchalance, but when all the
tales of his putting and fine iron
play are forgotten the melody of
his singing wooden club shots will
remain. The Little boy is slugger
from way back. He is due to give
the British brothers touch Of high
life when he unlimbers his war clubs
at historic old st. Andrews a few days
hence, and if he doesn't show them
something new and unique about
pasting an inoffensive little sphere
into places they didn't think it could
be driven we shall miss our guess.
Ten years ago we had Roland Mac
Kenzie, the Western High School kid.
who knocked the apple about as far
as any one Along came Henry G.
Dixie Davis, who is the longest hit
ter We ever have seen, and Jimmie
Davis, the blonde Columbia lad, who
could park 'em 300 yards from the
tee and not think he had done much.
But those lads played with the old
ball, and there never has been any
doubt that the old pill could be
driven farther than the present
sphere,

W TASTE no pity on the tennis
M dub. He is floundering
w joyously in the puppy
love" stage of tennis, de-
lightfully whacking the dancing pill
over the fence, toward the adjacent
court, off the wood, into the net, or
missing completely. But he's a care
free. deleriously happy soul, deriving
untild pleasure in one correctly ex-
ecuted stroke. He is entirely en-
veloped in the game; talks, walks and
things in terms Of forehands, back
hands, Easterns, North American and
African grips.
He wakes hours before time on the
mornings he is to play and mentally
outlines his path to love-set victories
in the morning match, in fancy
smashing ungettable drives into his
opponents court, maneuvering him
out of position or plopping insidious
dropshotS barely over the net for
astounding placements. He attends
tournaments religiously, studies
keenly the form of topnotcherS
and at night has the family
covering behind the piano while
ne carefully extracts Ills IdCkeI
from press and waterproof cover, slaps
the family cat into the fireplace and
remarks to the kid brother. That, my
boy, is a forehand drive"
YEAH" returns kid brother, 'looks
like the. old mans wood shot except
you didn't dig a hole" and he nips
off another chew Of tobacco
Then that memorable day when he
wallops sizzling backhand-boy how
he cherishes that moment! 1t occurs
to him that perhaps he is one of the
few tennis "naturalS." The dub de-
riveS more pleasure from one form
stroke than the No. l racketer does in
a morning of play. The game con-
stantly expands for him; new strokes
pop up Unexpectedly as glad surprises;
and even long arduous practice on
particular stroke-the bane of leading
players who would continue leading
is source of joy to the neophyte
He'll play until he drops exhausted
and challenge anybody the minute
his breath returns.
So when those of you who have mas
tered the finer points Of racket-twirl-
ing, II one ever does, chance to OBJ
serve pityingly the bungling, uncertain
movements of the perspiring dub, re-
member that he, ungraceful though
he admittedly is, glories in the game,
takes his tennis with supreme serious

FEAREDUNDERDOG
IN HEAVY TOURNEY
Fights Barry Tomorrow for
Shot at Brown in Final.
Wright Faces Bowen.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN.

q TAMPED a "washout" by
local promoters after Joe
Knight and Marty Gala
- CHER had Stroked his knob
without knockout punches two
years ago, young Bobby Tow re-
turns to old stamping grounds
Tuesday touted as the most i'm
proved heavyweight boxer in
this section.
Robert no longer is regarded as a
"washout." BY reason of some rather
nifty beak-busting elsewhere he has
been labeled the dark horse" in the
District elimination heavyweight
tournament now drawing to a close
at Portner's Arena, and in that guiSe
will oppose Donald (Red) Barry, the
oddS-on choice to annex the mythical
title which five contenderS originally
sought. Two-LeS Kennedy and
Gallagher-have been eliminated,
and the winner of Tuesdays tussle
will fight Matte Brown for the crown.
A couple OF years ago the murder
Gus punching Knight nailed Tow be-
hind the ear at Twin-City and kayoed
him, shortly after Bob had scored a
major upset by knocking down and
decisively whipping Gallagher. For
weeks Robert was on the shelf with
a bad ear When he finally was
ready for active duty again Gala
CHER was given first crack. Marty
duplicated Knights punch behind
that ear and Bob went out again. AS
far as local promoters were concerned
he was through"

Semi-yind- Up Attractive.

CINCE then, with the added weight,
y his punching has improved and
his mangled ear completely
healed. In out-of-town rings the
youngster, now residing in Alexan-
dria, kayoed a string of third-raters
and then recently whipped Tony Can
celia, Cuban heavyweight who is
rated higher than either Gallagher
or Brown.
That his improvement has received
recognition from others than Erwin
was evidenced by the reluctance OF
Matte Brown to meet him in the
tourney as originally slated. Matte
and not Barry was billed to fight Tow,
but Brown turned thumbs down and
Red accepted match more danger
Gus than it is worth, in the opinion
Of many local ring observers.
A potential shoW-stealer Is the
eight-round semi-windup between
Cary Wright and Ray Bowen, local
welterweights. who are reckoned the
Capitals best at this weight. In a
trio of fours Barefoot Green will
punch with Joey Schultz, Ike Fones
will meet Bill Howell and Al Dinta-
min will meet an opponent yet to
be selected.

Gives Pill Long Ride.

TEN years ago Wayne Haley, a
i long, loose joined youngster,
who later went to oxford in
England, walloped a ball right onto
the middle of the second green at
Columbia with the old ball, mind
you), and now Lawson Little, with
ball that cannot be driven as far,
has gone and done the same thing.
Playing from the clay tee, which is
about 20 yards in front Of the regular
tee, he cut loose the artillery and
parked that apple on the putting
green, giving him one of those ex-
treme rarities-a putt for an eagle.
He didn't make it, but he did achieve
something no man has done with the
present ball. He scored a 68 in that
round.
Over at Chevy Chase he played
with Bob Barnett and Bob put the
tees. At the ninth Lawson cut into
the ball with all he had and that
pill carried far past the pin on the
back edge of the green. Now some
folks say a golf ball cannot be car
ried more than 24O yards unless favor
able wind conditions exist. But in
both these cases Lawson had no wind
to aid him. The carry on the Sec
ond at Columbia must have been
something like 255 yards, and on
the ninth at Chevy Chase it was
more than 260 yards.
When better hitting IS being done
Lawson Little will do it. He is lust
about as long a hitter as there is in
the game at present. But like so
many men who have extreme length
from the tee Little is not as good
with the intermediate shots as he
might be. He has been helped con-
dderably by Tommy Armour, but
Little himself admits he does not
feel comfortable on a shot below l4O
yards. Nevertheless he has given a
lot of golfers lot of thrills, for. after
all, the most sensational shot in the
game is the big wallop from the tee.
And the big Little boy can do plenty
of socking.
