TINE handlers of Primo Carnera
l. face one of the most tangled
problems in sport.
In the next two and a half months
they must in some way, form or fash
ion teach their mastodonic mauler
how to slip little more dynamite into
his punches in order to keep his crown
at least reasonably safe.
The point has been raised that if
Camera couldn't hurt Tommy Lough-
ran, how is he going to annoy Max
Baer?
1t might be suggested that Lough-
ran is much harder to tag than Baer
is, but that isn't a complete answer.
1t seems strange that 270-pound
giant, fast and active on his feet, in
no way clumsy. should face a series
of punching lessons so that he can
at least jolt rival sore 60 pounds
lighter.
The secret of punching is timing,
which involves not only hand. wrist
and arm action, but also shoulder
and body action, all blended to bring
about maximum speed at the moment
of impact
1t isn't so easy to blend 270 pounds
into one fast motion.
Camera, all set, could likely blast
standing target out of the reserva-
ton or county.
But the muscular coordination
needed to hit a shifting target is diff
ferent and much more difficult than
hitting a stationary object, although
even this doesn't apply when it comes
to hitting a golf ball.
Camera has had around him some
pretty smart boxing people, who know
their stuff. They have been working
more than a year to slip him the
knack of timing needed to make him
almost unbeatable.
It took Gene Tunney six or seven
years of hard work and endless pa
tience, backed By keen. analytical
mind, to learn how to punch hard
enough at least to jolt and cut and
hurt. Natural punchers such as Bob
Fitzsimmons and Jack Dempsey are
rare birds.

from it all" I suggested, than the
day you called the second homer in
Chicago and came through?"
II guess that was the top" he
answered. do you know when they
found that ball, it was all flattened
out? I put everything in that swing
from my toes to my ears, and every
thing seemed to work together-feet,
body and arms. The second hit that
ball knew no pitcher would ever
throw it again unless he sailed it like
fiat rock"
"If this is your last season, Babe"
said again, what chance have you Of
finishing up with another pennant
winner and another world series?"
GIVE got swell chance" he said.
"Joe Mccarthy has a much better
looking ball club this Spring than he
had q year ago. And that beating we
took from Washington has given us
a new and much better spirit. There
seemed to be general idea last year
that we could win the pennant by de-
fault. We found out pennants are
not won that way. All we need is just
pretty good pitching and little luck
in avoiding injuries. This team has
speed and the punch. And there'll be
plenty in the way Of speed to take
up any slack my legs may bring about.
Probably the worst thing that hap
pened to us last Spring was winning
those first seven games. After that it
looked like a breeze. You'll see a
different ball club-a new spirit-this
year. And think you've known me
long enough to understand that I
don't kid myself"

the latter being Of the larger variety.
Benedict is one Of the best fishing
grounds in this section of the country,
particularly during the early part of
the season.
Thursday afternoon We made a trip
to Galesville to ascertain conditions
in the bay. We found that large
numbers of herring arc being taken
in the nets off the mouth Of West
River and that both buck and roe
shad are numerous. Capt. Noah
Hazard is busy landing herring, shad
and rock fish. We saw these fish
and selected a nice 8-pound rock for
dinner. Fishermen in that section
say it will not be long before they
will be catching the old reliable hard
head in their nets. They say these
fish will show up around the first Of
May.
AS all anglers know. the hardhead

stand the pull of a large hardhead,

i from the golf courses
where the Maryland State
champion plays begin to come in.
for Roger Peacock, the Old Line
State titleholder, has started the sea-
son off with bang. He played the
Congressional course yesterday in TO,
using only 26 puts for the round
and finishing with an eagle 2 on the
eighteenth hole for his sub-par round.
Peacock needed the deuce. too, for
Roland Mackenzie and Billy Dett-
weller were l up on Peacock, and
Walter McCallum and both Peacock
and Mackenzie drove the eighteenth
green. But the Indian Spring star
rolled in his putt for the two, while
Roland barely missed.
Earlier in the day Clagett Stevens,
youthful aide to Roland Mackenzie
in the Congressional golf shop, shot
himself an eagle 3 on the par fifth
hole by canning chip shot from the
edge of the green. Roland played II
holes In four strokes below par, but
did not have time to play the holes
between the ninth and the sixteenth.

TIME National Capital open
golf championship has
-een definitely put off to
a date in the Fall, prob
ably late in October or early in
November.
Inability of officials of the Kenwood
Golf and Country Club to secure a
date in May which will not conflict
with the sectional qualification rounds
for the national open, with the open
championship itself or with other
Journeys has made the poStpOnement
until Fall necessary, and now it looks
as If Kenwood will hold the premier
the second week in November-the
same week as in previous years.
Listed in the professional calendar
as a fixture the National Capital
open tourney has done more to estab-
hsh Washington as one of the golf
centerS of the East than any other
factor. With an entry of practically
all the nationally known stars of the
game, the tournament last year was
the best of the three that have been
held and the pros now look upon the
National Capital as one of the better
tournaments Of the late season.
All of them plan to play in it and
will continue to do so. even though
the prize. money, totaling $4,000, is
not as large a pot as that offered in
some Other events.

Shipley's Maryland base ball
nine served warning on its diamond
foes that it will be a tough combina-
tion to whip this season when it came
back yesterday to earn 5-to-0 VIC
tory over the Ithicans on the College
Park field.
1t was Vic Willis. jr., son Of the
famous old Pirate pitcher, who hurled
the Terps to victory. Although
Cornell had little difficulty in getting
men on the bases in the early stages,
it was another matter getting them
across the counting block. Willis gave
up six hits and walked four.
Maryland put the game on ice in
the first frame when Cornell's south
paw. Pat Hartnett, walked Willie
Wolfe and Bob Love. Buscher and
Nelson went out. but Spider Chase
placed a grounder through Second
Baseman Jack Frost's legs to score
Wolfe. Here Benner walked and Ly-
