TWO special classes for the stu
dent riders from girls schools
and colleges will feature the
- second indoor Fort Myer horse
show, to be held in the riding hall
on the evening of March II. Heartened
by the handsome response of girl
competitors to a similar event at
the initial meet, the exhibition mana
gers have decided to include both
horsemanship and jumping events
in the forthcoming schedule.
In one test the girls will be judged
on their skill and flnesee In handling
q hack, while in the other they will
be asked to attempt q course Of
four jumps, not to exceed 3 feet 6
inches. Both will be pair classes for
teams Of undergraduates only.
q Altogether nine classes are listed
Tor the st. Paticks day show. Two
Of these are limited to enlisted men
and non-commissioned officers, while
the open jumping, working hunters,
road hacks, touch-and-out and polo
pony stake race are unrestricted.
Leading military and civilian riders
will compete in these, an increased
entry being expected this month in
asmuch as owners have had better
opportunity of late to get their charges
in show condition.
TOR those who cannot be satisfied
with indoor revelry or the mere
renascence of foxhunting in this
sector, we submit herewith fulsome
horseman's tour of the Carolinas, de-
signed to cure impatience, chills and
fever. Leaving here tomorrow one
could easily make Aiken in time for
the point-to-point races slated for

Serrian Evades Knockout.


DILL picked up where he left off ir
the next round, peppering Ser
rian's head with both fists, but the
Pennsylvania italian managed to avoid
a Sleep producing punch by going into
his familiar clinch.
In a stirring semi final, which stole
the show, Irish Johnny Dean and Pete
Galiano battled six rounds to draw
Judges Charley Dunn and Dr. o. U.
Singer voted the stalemate, :, hiie
Referee Constantine Places thought
Dean the winner.
Draping the Baltimore Italian on
the ropes with a straight right to
the chin In the first round, Dean saw
the stubby Baltimore lightweight rally
in the late milling to offset Johnny S
early advantage. Both boys blasted
away for the full, three minutes of the
sixth round.
Obviously out of condition, Roy
Manley, Arkansas middleweight, drop
ped six-round decision to AL Parks
OF Baltimore. In another scheduled
six-rounder, Mike Tardugno, local
1eatherweight, knocked out Willie Fe-
lice of Brooklyn after 1 minute and 13
seconds of the first heat.
Showing the best fighting form of
his career, Harry Thompson scored
his second professional win in as many
starts by taking a split-decision VIC
tory over Tommy Hoover in a four
round lightweight bout.
More than 1000 spectators paid S2,-

asked three well known trainers
the most consistent horse they ever
had seen. I expected the answer to
be Man O. War. 1t wasn't. The name
was Exterminator They took into
consideration his class Of competition
and his longer racing span. You'll
find few human entries as consistent
as Exterminator was year after year.
Ranking for Consistency.
TN THE way Of consistency, I'd take
this ranking:
Ball player-Ty Cobb.
Foot ball player-Jim Thorpe and
Fudge Heffelfinger.
Billiard player-Willie Hoppe.
Golf player-Bobby Jones.
Runner Paavo Nurrni.
Polo player-Devereux Milburn.
Tennis player-Bill Tilden 1920
1920.
Fighter-Harry Greb.
Steadiness in Golf.
A LONG this line new record for
consistency was set in golf re-
Gently. In one big Florida tourna-
ment young Leonard Dodson beat
Harry Cooper a stroke after a. tussle
lasting 80 holes, including a playoff.
A few days later Cooper beat Dodson
a stroke at 70 holes to win at Belleair.
This means that Cooper and
Dodson finished all even after
162 holes of competitive play.
And both finished well under
par against two crack fields.
The most consistent stretch of foot
bali known in a longtime is Mime
sofas record Of unbeaten seasons,
moving back to 1882. That's some
thing to inhale in this dizzy age. And
there is no early sign that Bernie
Bierman's Gophers will take it on the
chin this next Fall.
Not all-star competitors are con-
sistent actors. This goes for horse
and man alike. Discovery and Azucar
are in this class. Foot ball is full of
them. Andy Pilney got away badly
in two early games. Against Navy
and Ohio State the Notre Dame back
was easily the high spot Of the year.

section. Serrian could have poured
q thousand more of his ineffective
slaps into Phil without harming him.
Seldom connecting, but scoring heavi-
ly when he did, Furr annoyed Mickey
considerably with left hooks and right
crosses from long range.
Although Furr managed to keep his
indoor season record unblemished,
scoring his fifth win of the year, the
Southwest socker failed to display
the same form which sank Steve Ha-

Mickey with several wicked wallops

damage was slight.
