 Predictions
 Here are my three-star speclals for 1886:
 Tennis: The U.6L!T.A. will have Q good financial year largely be- cause the Australian Davis cup team will play in this zone and defeat the American team thus saving the expense of sending our own boys e Europe to get licked. Allison will retain his number one American ranking but not his singles cham- pionship. Helen Jaobs will gain ali- other leg on the womefl's champion- ship cup.
 Baseball: The same teams that played the world series last year will play again this year. Connie Mack will sell his son Earl for ei0 more than he has cost him to date. Two pitching brothers, the Deans, will become prominent. The De- troit papers will run enough pics lures of Mickey Cochrane to give him runner-up position to the Dionnes.
 And Besides M :. Football: Minnesota will play the toughest schedule in the country t0 win every game. They will get al- most as much credit for 1t as Princeton will far winning every game on an easy schedule.
 Prizehghting: Schmeling will last three rounds against Joe L0uiss Braddock will last four. Lou Aila-' bers will win the lightweight cham pionship fro Tony Canzoneri. No one will come even near to beating Barney Ross. I will not challenge Joe Louis. .a9
 Golf: Lawson Little will retain his British amateur championship but lose his American one. Gene Sarazen will win the British open. Sam Parks, Jr., will not win the American open.
