Stupid Handling Dangerous.

THAT is just one Of the many cruelty
drastic stupidities of prize ring
handling that are unveiled weekly.
Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn usually
presents a fair preliminary card. but
the seconds who handle those fight
ers are notoriously ignorant of proper
methods Of treating a fighter who has
been knocked out.
If you were struck on the head by a
falling brick-the equivalent of a
knockout blow-your doctor probably
would order you to bed for several
days. Yet. with a fighter who has
been floored three or four times. han
dlers will rock his head from side to
side and drag him away to clear the
ring for the next bout.
Those seconds probably believe that
when a man is knocked out. the blood
fails to pump into the fighters brain
and that vigorous massaging at the

Sharkey Is Enough.

pERSONALLY am against any one
permitting Fish Levinsky to meet
Joe Louis, unless 1t is up a dead-end
alley There must be a limit to all
things, and if Jack Sharkey is going
to fight Joe Louis, that should be
suficient for one Summer. If the
heavyweight business has become so
clownish that match between Fish
Levinsky and Joe Louis ever Is con-
templated. suggest staging the affair
in the Solomon Islands or some other
spot so far removed from the United
States that the King will be an old
man by the time he returns.
1t is strange how many brave men
Max Schmeling created when his
right hand Jared Joe Louis into a
INA Jack Sharkey who never was
famous for his courage, Immediately
challenged the bomber and was. ac-
commodated. Max Baer has been
snorting defiance from various flag
stops and now LevinSky is waving the
cutlass at Joe Louis. Yet I seem to
recall that Max Baer was going to
turn cowboy after his time with Joe
Louis and that Fish Levinsky was
going to his herring stall. Enzlo
Fiermonte has not yet challenged Joe
Louis, but that may come any day.
If thought Joe Louis could put
Kingfish LevinSky out of the way for
keeps, might change my vote.

A Problem Child Too Long.

X INGFTSH LEVINSKY too long has
been problem child of boxing
and blame Jack Dempsey for a part
of the troubles. Only for the Manassa
Mauler, Levinsky long ago would have
been embalmed in the record books
Some years ago, when Jack was on
an exhibition tour with the idea Of a
comeback buzzing in his head. Fish
Levinsky tagged him roughly on the
chin. Immediately, Levinsky devel-
oped a Napoleonic complex and there
was no holding the man A few
weeks later, Fish spilled Mickey
Walker on the floor. and while the
Mick" arose to paint punches all
over the Levinsky chassis, Fish was
made as trial horse.
Chicagoans thought Levinsky had
been removed from circulation when
Max Baer did Boy Scout deed and
dropped King into the ice box with
the other kippers. but there was no
such luck.
Again it was believed his swan dive
in the Louis engagement had elini-
mated him as a fistic nuisance, but it
seems there's no keeping this Levinsky
outside the ropes. He's been Holly

do amazing things to fellow.

LATONA, tenth rank

INONY LATONA, tenth ranking
player of the Middle Atlantic
section, was expected to repel
- the first challenge Of an out
of-town and non-sectional resident in
the Middle Atlantic singles tennis
tournament today as he faced Hun
ter Lott of Philadelphia, seeded third
among the Washington racketers
now competing at Edgemoor Club.
Lott, who seeks to establish Mid
die Atlantic ranking in addition to
his Middle States rating, was no bet
ter than an even choice against the
fiery Latona, now reaching the peak
of his game. The winner would be-
come the first-quarter f1nalist of the
tournament, which entered its fourth
day.
Big Matches Scheduled.
THE Latona-Lott encounter, how
ever, was the only one involving
two seeded players. although three
locally seeded stars were to make
their first starts and three other i'm
portant matches were scheduled. In
fact. all matches from now on should
produce brilliant tennis, involving, as
they will, the best players Of the Dis
trict. Virginia, West Virginia and
Maryland.
incidentally, the term foreigner"
no longer is in good usage during the
current tournament. It has been
pointed out. and correctly so. that
this Is a sectional tournament and
that every player from one OF the
four aforementioned territories Is as
much at home as If the tournament
were held anywhere else in the sec
ton. The two groups of seedlings
differentiate only between local and
players.
Today's other matches were to see
the debuts Of Dooly Mitchell. Gilbert
Hunt and Tom Markey, the first
three seeded players of the hometown
group. Mitchell was to face Tommy
Moorhead, Hunt was to go against
David johnson, while Markey tackled
Alan Staubly. If successful, only
Mitchell would face easy sailing In
the next round as Markey and Hunt
meet formidable opposition.

1t is a matter of record that Levinsky
once crawled into the ring with Joe
Louis, but nothing further to indicate
that fight occurred.
In fact, there was so little element
of a contest in the meeting that Fish
Levinsky narrowly escaped being
picked up on a charge of obtaining
money under false pretenSes. 1t was
only after counsel had given opinion
that any charges against Fish would
be thrown out of court as an act of

Only handful of basketball fans witnessed the doubleheader at the high school gym last night, in which the DeMolay quintet blanked the Tallapoosa five 45 to 28, and Krauses Concreters defeated the Juneau Bremen 33 to 27.
 Although the score of the last game was much closer, the DeMolay Tallapoosa tilt was by far the more exciting, with the sailors doing a fade-out in the last half Half score favored the winners, 21-16 Kinky Bayers with 16 points and Elmer Lindstrom with 10 led the fraternal attack, while George Tan ghe and Rol Gissberg with II and l3 points respectively, were high scorers among the losers.

SPORT SLANTS

A soured and saddened man is MT Moe C"CholmondeleyD German, late of Broadway, New York, but now oi London, and disgust stamps his fact as vividly as the inch-square greer checks on his ultra English tweed suit.
 Moreover, Moe is bewildered. He is hurt.
 As a charter member of the Bron2 Cheer Club and the Int -the-Bag fraternity, back home, Moe guesses he knows his rights and not only his rights but also the proper decor um for an irate prize-flght customer when the referee gives what Moe calls a cheesey decision.
 For years, he has been calling them. AS l seen 'em,' added Moe and he shrugged gloomily. But now"
 But now he is practically ready to give up his British accent, pains- takingly acquired since his arrival a short time ago.
 T don't unnastan these limeys, y he said They don't speak my lan- guage.'
 Noes misunderstanding arose at Royal Albert Hall, when the referee gave Tommy Farr, oI Wales, a dubi- ous decision over Tommy Loughran, the veteran Philadelphia Phan- tom," who-as the critics afterward agreed-gave young Farr boxing lesson for 10 rounds.
 The decision stunned even Farr's most ardent supporters. The crowd gasped. But with well-bred English reserve. they merely murmured po- lite surprise
 "Boo-oo!" said Moe, on a foghorn note. It was, he said later with a touch of pride, undoubtedly the most spine-chilling Bronx cheer he had ever uncorked.
 Slowly the crowd took it up. Jeers and hoots leaped from dozens, then scores, then hundreds of throats. Moe led the chorus.
 Robbery" he screamed, and he looked around The chorus missed its cue.
 Tn the bag!" believed Moe, prod ding the bowler-hatted individual next to him. The bowler-hat started to murmur something, but Moe cut him off with deafening cry
 "Frame-upp
 It was then that Moe learned the difference between Bronx and Brit ain. The bowler -hatted individual addressed him:
 That's a bit thick, old chap" he said. "Rummy decision, and all that. But 'frame-up, you know. Really
 It simply, Moe learned, isn't done. Back home, yes. But not in England.
 British sports writers, comment ing on the fight, guardedly agreed with Moe.
 Loughran himself told the Asso- ciated Press man, in his dressing room just after the fight: T thought I was so far ahead that out of the spirit of English fair play didn't try to cut him up. If I'd been fight ing in Latin country I could have understood a decision like that, but I didn't expect to get it in England
