alumni here as we'll as to Mesmer
himself.
Three candidates were under
consideration. Aside from Ripley
were Orrel Mitchell, coach and
athletic director at Gonzaga Prep
here, and Ed Hargaden, coach and
athletic director at Georgetown
Prep, the exclusive preparatory
school on the Rockville Pike at
Garrett Park, Md.
In selecting Ripley, Georgetown
appointed teacher who succeeds
his own pupil Freddy Mesmer
captained Georgetown'S greatest
basketball team, the machine of
1928, which won 81 of % games
played. The Ripley contract is for
two years.
Ripley resigned from George
town at the conclusion of the
great campaign of 1928 to assume
the coaching position at Yale Uni
versity calling for a salary re-
ported to be $4,000. After marked
success at New Haven, Ripley re-
signed to become basketball equip
ment promotion m n g er for
Spaldings. In addition, he con-
ducts basketball clinics and sum,
mer school coaching courses
throughout the East and South.
It is believed the rich New York
and Connecticut Hoya alumni
were in favor of the change in
coaches, as it has been a long time
since these alumni have seen a
: basketball victory for a George
town team in that section.

A cloud was cast upon the riders
of two great racers today after Sea-
biscuit, ace of the American handi-
cap crop, won by inches over Liga-

hot thoroughbred duel ever staged
in California.

Of courage, fight and fire over a
mile and one-sixteenth, the stew

angrily that Richardson did this

HeuriCh g Keeps
Pace by Victory

The lead in Industrial League
baseball play continued to be
knotted up yesterday, as Heurich
Brewers barely pulled out a 4-3
victory over O'Donnell's Grill on
the Ellipse. Old Milwaukee is the
other team holding a half-interest
in the lead.
Four of Heurich's hits bounced
off the bats of Huck Stahl and
Brother Harding. A two-run
furry in the first inning, and
single pointers in the fourth and
sixth innings defeated the Grill

ABRAMS PLANS
SPEEDY ATTACK
AGAINST Steve
BY BOB ADDH


As Is usually the case in these
fistic spectacles Goldie Ahearn
stages, the relative merits Of Joe
Blow and Kid Puss are obscured
by the ton of extraneouS ballyhoo
about the winner meeting q cham
pton, arguments over gloves and
other such inconsequential de-
tails.
Steve Mamakos, for instance, is
meeting George Abrams at Grit.
fifth Stadium Monday night, and
the opposite styles on display fore.
cast a tasty bit Of civil warfare.
AS far as can be observed, little
has been said about the condition
OF the fighters, what they think
and what their battle plans are.
REVEALS PLAN
Abrams has been shown shaking
hands with Jack Dempsey, q
beauty-contest winner, q couple
of civic leaders and three or four
hundred other people. You'd think
the guy was running for office.
Mamakos, on the other hand, has
lodged the spotlight and Is con.
centrating on the business at
hand.
Questioned as to his plan Of bat.
tie, Abrams said he would attempt
to outstab Mamakos Monday
night
II know he's a tough boy"
George said, land my best
chance to beat him is to outlook
him. I'm sure I'll win, but I'm
not undertaking Steve. I've had
q pretty long layoff-more than
a Worthwhile Steve has been
fighting almost every week. I'll
have to keep stepping around
him or he'll wear me down. I'm
not kidding myself about his
VITALITY know he has plenty"
PRAISE FOR STEVE
Incidentally, speaking Of vital.
ity, George paid his opponent a
compliment. It seems Abrams was
examined by a Johns Hopkins
physician in a test to determine
his fund of vitality. George passed
with flying colors, but in speaking
of the incident, he said it was o
good thing the gentleman didn't
examine Steve because they'd
need powerful machine to catch
all of StevA'S energy"
It Is this very thing that makes
Mamakos so dangerous. He is
something Of a physical freak even
for a 20.year-old youngster. Steve
works as a tinsraith by day, then
runs from his shop to his training
quarters on Sixth Street and
PennSylvania-a distance Of more
than a mile.
After shadow oxing several
rounds, the Greek works with
three sparring partners and goes
through a rigorous routine Of calls
themes. In the morning, he runs
five or six miles. Steve thrives On
work and he loves to harness his
magnificent body to exercise.
ENDS DRILLS
Mamakos completed his boxing
} yesterday and reiterated his belief
lhe would at last beat his old
neighborhood rival, Abrams, who
holds three decisions from previ-
Gus amateur and pro fights.
steve's plan is simple-he'll just
= march in as always and start
throwing punches.
A marked respect has been
noted in the boxing fans opinion
Of Mamakos. The odds on the
fight are now about even money
and with interest so high, the best
gate of the season is anticipated
when the civil War" starts Mon
day night.
