Ross 7outs Still Is Daniels,
Here for Heovies' Show

tagged poor prospect, and quickly
forgotten.
The same" admitted Ross with
a smile when we mentioned Daniels
monicker. THE same name" he
continued. "but what fighter this
kid is today. I know, I know, you
wouldn't have given plugged quar-
ter for him or his chances a year ago
and neither would I. A year ago he
was a bum, speaking plainly, but a
lot has happened since then. He's
been out on the coast, y'know. Yes,
and doing well, too. Won seven
fights, five by knockouts and made
big hit with the folks.
Back for Marine Encampment.
why didn't he stay there? Well,
ne couldn't. He's in the Marine Re-
serves-Heine Miller's outfit-and
they called him back for that train
ing grind they take every summer.
He wanted to come, too. because he's
from down that way-Manteo, N. C.
and he boxes there every summer
during some carnival they stage. I
think it's celebrating the landing Of
the Pilgrims, or the hanging of King
George, or sump'n. But it's a nice
piece of change for him and he's
been winning.
The last two fights he had
around here he decisioned Mickey
Dugan and stiffened Jim Williams
in one heat. Pretty good, eh? Well,
we think he'll stiffen lot more of
'em from now on. He's fighting on
Turner's all-heavyweight card
boxing Jake Friedman of Baltimore,
and If he don't knock him kicking
I'll buy you hat. We've got him
booked up for the next three weeks
straight and when he comes back
from that Marine camp we're going
to turn him loose He'll fight any
body, any time and for any purse
to prove his ability"
From the looks of things and
judging by Mr.. Ross enthusiastic
statements, we'd hazard the guess
that he's sold on Daniels.
Good AlHeavy Show Looms,
Messrs. Turner and Ahearn are
working overtime on their all-heavy-
weight show scheduled a week from
tomorrow night and from this angle
ltsappears that they'll make a sue
cess of it.
Name fighters, aside from Nathan
Mann and Steve, Dudas, who will ap-
pear in the star bout, will be con-
splcuously absent, but the fistic
twins promise an evening of action
and gore by the bucketfuls.

In setting forth problem positions
use the Forsyth notation. So, you
have composed five problems? Well,
m mlad, that is more than were COM
posed by the greatest chess player
who ever lived-Paul Morphy. Con-
corning the value of problem compo-
sition and actual development of
game ability, I belong to the school
Of thought that sees little utility in
problem composing. 1t is distinct
and separate art from over the
board match chess. l know of no
outstanding problem composer who
is even national chess master, least
of all an international master.

Slav Defense.
Reuben Fine analyses the popular
Slav defense and says that it is as
good as any defense to the queens
gambit-the July issue of British

Americans very astute remarks.
Here is a substantial development
OF the Slav defense: /, P-Q4, P-Q4;

B-Qkt5; 8, castles, castles; 8, Q-K2,
B-Kt5; 10, R-Q1, QKt-Q2, etc. The
game as played leads to an even posi-
ton. Always the principle of a good
defense is to equalize the advantage
enjoyed by Whites first move in the
hands of an expert.
A Disgusting Tableau.
Are we columnists suckers? We
receive fancy letters, vari-colored
advel tisements touting the FORTH
coming international Team Tourna-
ment at Buenos Aires on August %.
and gladly inform our chess Glen
tele that the Argentine government
is giving transportation and ex-
penses to visiting players.
The tourney has been well adver-
tlsed. Players are ready the world
over. But where are the steamship
tickets, the travelling expenses? 1t
seems some one owes us an ex-
planation.
Speaking Of Champions
Mikhail Botwinnik again is Rus

the Nations Capital about two years

his own son. Bogoljuboff won the
Stuttgart Germany masters tour

One of the most interesting books
to come off the recent canine press
is Josef Weber's 'The Dog in Train
ing" This is a book written in a
clear, simple, logical style for the
amateur or novice trainer and ham
dler, with especially clear-cut diree-
tions for training dog in obedience
and for obedience test work.
But it also is book very evidently
written by a real professional, a
master in the art of dog training,
who took his own training in what
is conceded to be the finest dog
training institution in the world,
the German police force.
His writing is to be especially
commended for it's common sense
attitude toward dogs and their
training, and his absolute lack of
sentimentality, which mars so many
books on dogs and their care.
He realizes that while there may
be superdogs, most of them are run
of them animals.
He also realizes that even q
very mediocre specimen Of
the genus CAMS may be made
