I understand McLarnin h a S
agreed to make a particular weight
for his Milk Fund title defense
against Barney Ross. I do not
profess to be expert enough to
warrant an opinion regarding Nc
Larnin's ability after he has un-
dergone the reduction process.
But I am willing to go on rec
ord the McLarnin I saw sparring
in the ball room at Convention
Hall comes close to being the most
perfect pugilist, pound for pound,
1 have ever seen. And if business
permits, I'll gladly forego my
luncheon another day for the
treat of again seeing McLarnin
spar.
Many Others Before
Atlantic City, N. j., has been the
stamping grounds for Dempsey,
Firpo, Tom Gibbons, the late
Harry Greb, Sammy Mandell, Car
nera, Max Baer and others.
It is my conviction that Nc
Larnin has something in a box
ing sense none of the others had,
great champions though some of
them were!
saw McLarnin feint with diff
ferent parts of his body-With his
head, feet, eyes. I saw him wiggle
his shoulder in a combination slip
feint, and if some enterpriSing
chlorine could master this move
and put it to music, theatrical
booking agents would wear out a
path to her door step.
No Predictions
Mind you, I do not want any,
thing I may say in my enthusi-
asm for what I have seen McLar-
min do in training be in any way
construed as prediction he can
or cannot defeat the esteemable
Ross, a champion in his own right
I am quite willing to leave this
puzzling task to the real boxing
experts.
McLarnin acted like a fellow
who enjoyed his training. I do
not compare him in this regard
with any pugilistic guest we have
entertained in the past. That
would hardly be in taste.
He impressed me as being in
better physical shape at this stage
of his preparations than any Of
the others were. He appears to
be an extremely speedy and hard
puncher.
Win or lose in his next contest,
I shall remain convinced that in
McLarnin I have seen the best
pugilist of his pounds.

FRIDAY At
BALLPARK
BY SID KATZNELL


Clark Griffith, venerable preXy
Of the Washington Ball Club, will
look over local high school tim
Der Friday, when Central High
plays host to the potent Alexan-
dria High diamond outfit at Grill

Sational southpaw mound artist OF
Alexandria High.
Other Scouts to Look
Dame Rumor" says scouts from
the Cincinnati Reds and Boston
Red Sox will also give the boys
the once over.
The game itself should be
packed with thrills as both teams
are not only of high caliber but
are deadly rivals.
Central defeated the Twins two
weeks ago. after ten hectlc IN
nings at Alexandria, 4 to 3. This
setback was the first for the Vir-
ginians in % starts.
The remarkable part of it was
the Ray-coached aggregation gave
Pitcher Titcomb his initial de-
feat of the season.
Won Five in Row
Prior to this, the youthful left
handler had won five consecutive
games.
Incidentally, Coach Morris
Given is sending Titcomb right
back at Central, and Jack Ray,
mentor of the opposition, is re-
taliatlng with Claude Cowan, ace
of his staff.
The game will be the farewell
contest for six of Centrals regu-
lars. They are Cliff Keyser,
Cowan, Len de Lisio, Mario
Gregorio, Bill Bryant and Nick

TAKE THESE PRECAUTIONS FOR MILK DURING SUMMER

covered glass jar and used within 24 hours after opening the can.
 Evaporated milk contains no sug- ar, so add 1t. The amount varies from one tablespoon during the first week to a gradual increase the first month to two level table spoons; two and one-half table, spoons for the second month and is sufficient for the days supply for unless your doctor orders other- wise.
 By the seventh month your baby is eating cooked strained cereals, strained vegetables and egg yolk, so gradually decrease the amount of sugar until by the ninth month no sugar is added to the milk. Re- member, with either fresh or can- ned milk, codliver oil and orange or tomato juice must be included in morning and evening feeding.
 Summing up our precautions, to make milk safe for baby during the coming summer. ....
 Be sure your milk supply is fresh and pure.
 Be sure always to boil fresh milk
 Be sure your refrigerator is well below 50 degrees.
 Be sure to sterilize every utensil used in preparing baby's food.
 For five minutes boil the bottles, nipples, strainer, mixing spoon and pitcher into which the boiled mix ture Is poured; also the glass jar that holds the nipples.
 Be sure to give baby daily many drinks of cool boilde water.
 There are many other dos and dont's applying to baby's health and comfort in summer, but start ing with these few tha tI have given is a wise first step toward making the summer safe for him.

be boiled, and not used for babies past 36 hours after pasteurizion.
 Boil all milk, and do 1t as soon as delivered. Cool rapidly and store in the refrigerator where the con stant temperature is well below 50 degrees. If for any reason all cool ing systems go out of commission, wrap the bottles by winding a strip of clean cloth around each bottle, stand in a shallo wpan of water with the end of the cloth in the water; quick and constant evapora- ton will keep 1t cool enough for safety. But for baby's health, keep your refrigerator clean and in good working order.
 Milk averaging thre and a quar- ter to four per cent of fat is best for babies, If you are doubtful of the purity and safety of your milk supply, or if you are camping, rely upon canned whole milk, either evaporated or dried. Both are safe and nourishing, but need the same care as to cleanliness in preparing the formula as does fresh milk. When using canned milk as a sub stitute for fresh milk it needs no boiling for the formula and is very digestible, because of It's long cook ing. Any part of the milk not used should be poured into a sterilized
