Big Chance for Baer.

DIGIT now it seems Max will be

in Europe but aren't in the class OF
our heavies, punk as they are right
now.
So far the British Board of Boxing

doubt will return claiming the Eastern
Hemisphere crown.
Baer has the chance of lifetime
on this trip. His opposition isn't over
whelming, and if he gets in real fight
ing condition, settles down and act
ually fights he yet may reinstate him
self with our fight public, and ever
come back to cop the title.
Max is a good hitter When he left
New York he looked fine, physically
and talked darn good fight. If 1t
wasn't hooey, I have hopes for him.
Don't Like Body Punches.
THOSE English Leaves don't take
body punches too WELL nor are
they terrific punchers. I don't think
they can hurt Max much. If Baer has
a mind to, he can take it,
Just how much Louis took out OF
Baer remains to be seen. There's a
chance he's softened up considerably
from Joe's beating, still he wasn't in
there long, and real heavy ought to
be able to take little bouncing
around.
I had to take a pretty tough shell
lacking from men like Gunboat Smith
and the late Bill Brennan, but maybe
they couldn't hit as hard as Louis.
You'd have hard time convincing
me- though.
I hear Bear stood his trip well. In
fact, a sea voyage should help him
Max isn't broke, so he tells me, but
is pretty badly bent, as they say, and
isn't gorging himself on caviar and
champagne now.
Fine. A hungry fighter is a danger
Gus fighter; whether man or beast.
Baer has a comeback chance, but
It's strictly up to him.
One thing is certain-if he flops
he'll be in for the raZzing of his life.

The person who has worked YOU
up with her audience az being such an
angel, always keeps an eager eve on
you. And the audience before whom
you have been overplayed takes on

You, OF course, having had no part in

you were balancing very delicate halo
upon your head. And it's hard work.
We know no remedy. We simply
don't believe in halos. We don't think
any one should burden their friends
by giving them halos anyhow. And
we don't think that any one should
ever expect a person to be as perfect

Yearns for

By ANGELO PATRI.


MY FATHER and mother are very
strict with me. I am Is years
old and in second year high. I'd
like to go out to evening entertain
ments with boy as the other girls
all do, but my parents refuse to
allow me this privilege. I have to
be in bed every night by $50 at the
latest without exception. On Satur-
day nights 1 can go to the movies
with my girl friend. but 1t has to be
the first movie. All my friends go
to the second one. Don't you think
that this is being too strict and that
I ought to have little freedom?"
Freedom for what? A girl or boy
in high school Is years old. needs
sleep. 1t is impossible for them to
do good school work without the nee
essary rest. Sleep is Natures way of
restoring the body, and Of keeping 1t
growing along healthily In youth. A

necessary homework is about all that
any high school students can attend
to. These days there is plenty Of en-
tertainment to be had in school with
out going out to look for it at night.
do think that at the week end,
when the lessons are over, that high
school students ought to have
chance to enjoy their leisure together.
Just how much freedom this is to
entail must depend upon the RESPONSE
bility that each student has developed
for himself.
The boy or girl who says, "I1l be
home for lunch" and doesn't show up
until after in the evening, and late
for the meal at that; who says, I'm
only going down to the corner for q
sheet Of carbon" and stays until
somebody goes out for him; who, after
being given an inch takes q foot, Is
not going to be given much free
dom by his parents or teachers.
Grown people are only too happy
to see signs Of maturity Of character
in young people, and they are quick
to show appreciation of 1t. It Is not
maturity of body that counts here,
although the boys and girls seem to
have that idea firmly in their minds.
I'm as tall as my mother and wear
women's sizes, but can't entertain
boys" I'm in long pants, but I
have to act like kid and ask per-
mission to 60 out nights" It IL
maturity Of character that demands
that people be trusted with their own
affairs, given elf-direction with full
responsibility for it.
When young people can show this
character development their guardians
are ready to release them to their
own direction. But as long as they
hold onto childish things and childish
ways, As long as they show that they
need to be fathered and mothered,
they cannot expect to be considered
grown up enough to be placed on their
own.
My word to the young people in high
school Is just that. Show yourself
responsible, prove 1t by your behavior,
and you will be allowed all the free
dom your responsibility can carry.

EhtEN KNOWS marriage Is full
- enough of complications for
all who have the hardihood
to enter into the holy estate,
but 1t never presents so many in
soluble problems to which no one
knows the answers as it does when a
poor young man marries q rich girl
OF course, If the man Is fortune
hunter who marries a girl merely for
her money, the situation is simplified.
He automatically becomes just a
household pet who eats out of his
wife's hand and fetches and carries
for her, and whom she leads around
on leash until she loses her taste
for him and decides that she would
rather have another breed of lap dog.
Something imported, perhaps, or at
any rate with more pep and a new
line of tricks.
But the male gold-digger Is such a
rare bird in these parts that the pos
session of fortune is handicap
rather than a help to girl in getting
husband. Poor girls have more
attention from men than rich girls,
and there is no other class of women
among whom there are so many old
maids as among the millionaires.
&UCH being the case, we are not
concerned In this discussion with
the parasitic men who sell themselves
for living or the silly women who
buy them, but with the honest-hearted
girls and boys who meet and fall in
love with each other and marry with
out a thought of the wife being rich
and the husband poor making any
difference, and then find that the
wife's holding the pocketbook becomes
the major issue of their lives and one
with which they do not know how TO
cope.

to do all Of his life and fitted
himself to do; if she turns him into a
loafer and an idler, If she makes
him one OF papas yes-yes men who

Yet the rich wife has some justi.

she be denied the things she wants
