Trainer Art Winch Does Not Think Speed Will
 Be Sacrificed

Now York, .day 7--Art Winch, co.manager of Barney Ross, the lightweight champion, with Sonny Plan, in q boxing trainer of great ability and . record of sending many great lighters to the ring. His judgment has boen unerrlng tn tho past and he doos not think he will ho making A mistake In sending Barney into tho ring with Jimmy McI.arnln close to the i4O pound
 Barney Is going to arrive In Now York on Friday and tho samo day will 70 to hts camp at Groasin. g0r'a ht Forndale, N, F., to put in those hard ilcks of training for tho big jouat, which Ia to be held in tho Madison Square Garden Bowl, in Long Island City on May 2s for the Milk Fund, Barney needs lm- mediate work for that important mili. After roughing it in the wilds of tho Wisconsin woods he TO. turned to Chicago a wolterwolght, showing moro than its pounds on tho scale. He's at present going through somo gymnasium work to take or some of the surplus weight and win probably como Uotu WvtkusUk Ot tuuht &NV pouuub
 Just Right
 "That," said Barnoy's othor manager, Plan, twill give Barney plenty to work on. Thoro ia not going to bo any great effort for him to reduce. He will not be sub- jocted to any diet, but to be al- lowed what is good for him and plenty of 1t. Of cvourso, Barney cannot be permitted to carry any weight that will mako his speed suffer. At i40 pounds, and I think ho will come close to that ata fight time, ho will have all the pep and vim necessary to carry on sue- big factor in determining the com. Ing fight and wo admit that Barney VIII have to have plenty of it to offset what tho great McLarnln will show"
 Ambitious
 Barney Is enthusiastic about thla match. Ho Ia being encouraged greatly by Art Winch, who knows MeLarnin for . lot of years. Ho had Joey Sanger against Mcf.arnin in tho days when Art says Jimmy was better man that he ia now, He professes to know. every movo that tho welterwaight champion makes and will drill tho counter offense Into his charge during tho training days at GrosslngerS. He, too, will be provided with reels of all the pictures of fights In which MeLarnin took part in recent times and Ross being an apt student is bound to boneht by the lecture and daily drilla.
 Right now Plan and Winch arc so sure that Barney will win under any circumstances that thoy arc ready to bet their money, but they think they'll walt until tho odds lengthon a bit, when and # they do.

A few hints to help you catch more trout:
 Never fish from the stream bed when you can cast from the bank. The reason Is that splashing will scare trout into leaving. If you must fish the stream in the water, keep as low as you can. When you see rising trout, kneel in the water Is possible and cast over him. His range of vision will be more likely to miss you if you keep well down.
