CONN TO. FIGHT
 APOSTOLI AND LINK TONIGHT
N. Y. Middle Champ ' to 5 Choice Over Man Who Has Beaten Him
By HARRY FERGUSON Limited Press Sports Editor)

i New York, Feb. 10-(UP)-Billy Conn, a growing young fellow who Is trying to eat his way into Joe Louis shoes, goes into the ring to- night to fight two men-Middle- weight Champion Fred Apostoli and a haggard, ugly old citizen who goes by the name of Jinx. |, This is Billy's farewell to the mid- dleweights, for he is growing so fast that ,henceforth he will campaign against light heavyweights and prob- ably turn out to be champion of them some day. In the meanwhile he. has his hands full against Apos- toli and the jinx that will be walk ing the blood-smeared canvas against him. Conn and Apostoh met once be- fore and New Workers, getting their first glimpse of Billy, saw one of the smoothest articles that has come along since Gene Tunney-a tall, handsome boy with @ picture book left and ring sense. to waste. Conn won the decision after 10 fast rounds and sthe moment his arm was lifted in victory the jinx went to work against him.
 Comebacker l.,
 For Apostou always beats man the second time he fights him. It has happened four times. The two most noteworthy instances were when Apostoli lost decisions to Fred die Steele and Young Corbett III and then came back in return matches and knocked them out
 The jinx was strong enough around Madison Square Garden today to make ApoStoli 8 2 to 5 favorite despite the boxing lesson lie took from Conn the first time they crossed gloves. This time they go IS rounds instead of 10, and everybody who saw the first bout recalls that Billy was tiring in the 10th, and Apostoli seemed to be getting his second wind for 8 fast finish. Plenty of persons think that rough, tough Apostoh will dis tribute the fancy lad from Pitts burgh all over the canvas some- time between the 10th and 18th rounds.
 MT. Conn begs leave to. dissent.
 "I1l box him If he wants to box, " Billy said, land there's nothing to this story about me being tired in the last fight. I always get that way sometime during a fight, but 1t doesn't mean anything except that I'm just getting my second wind"
 ', Tangie
 Nothing will be at stake tonight because Conn expects to come in at l69 pounds-far over the middle weight limit. The only thing Apos- toll would have to put on the line anyway would be recognition as middleweight champion in New York. The National Boxing associa- ton recognizes Solly Krieger as mid- dleweight champion.
 once Apostoli gets through the Conn bout, he probably will get a match with Krieger. and part of the middleweight puzzle will be un- raveled.
 Conn plans to go on from this bout to one with Melio Bettina, rec ognized by the New York boxing commission as light heavyweight champion. Then the winner of that one may get together with John Henry Lewis, who is light heavy weight champion outside of New York.
 Even though no title will be at stake, Promoter Mike Jacobs expects a crowd of l4,o0o and Q gate of around $50.000.

ROBINS AND GENTS
 PAIRED TONIGHT
Tribunes and Props Also Listed at Washington
 Park

Whether the Robbins 33-22 vic- tory last week over the Reymond Hillies was a "fiuke" or "the goods" will be tested tonight when the Rob- ins stack up against the Gents of the Hill in the first of twogame card at Washington Park Commu- nity house. The Baldwin Props will meet the Tribunes in the feature game. ...
 Neither of the four teams has as yet tasted defeat in the second round of the Washington Park league which opened few weeks ago.
 Ready To Go
 The Robins will show the same lineup which surprised the Dough- boys last week, and the Gents will be in for seeking to clinch the championship by a victory siege of the second round.
 The Tribunes and Props are strong contenders for honors and will be battling to their utmost to remain in the running. One defeat will not necessarily remove any team from the running in the league however. The first game will get underway at 7:45.

WILDCATS WILL
 BE FAvORITES;
 GRADES PRELIM
Alumni of Both Schools Set for Test; Action
 Assured
By CROSS COURT

Crosby and Wilby basketball play CTS of today, this year and other years of the pleasant past will meet for competition tomorrow night at wilby gym in an excellently ar- ranged double-header which will feature two games, one played iin- der the current rules, and the other, the Old Grads or Alumni game, lin- der the "old" rules. Such was the prospect today, as the high school teams were set for their second and final hoop test of the season, Wilby having won the first game 40 to 34 played nearly month ago. :, Though they took going over at Hartford yesterday from St. Thomas Seminary, Wilby Is right on edge for its objective tomorrow night a clean sweep with Crosby by means of a convincing victory, 10 points or more over Crosby team has bene going "hot and cold" all sea- son, but, against Wilby, Is always capable of coming up with game that allows the use of the words, "upset", surprise" and unexpected" in the next days news. However, the high school lads never fail to put on real contest, regardless of the ultimate result.
 All Set
 As for the Alumni, Johnny "Sheik" Cristoforo, and Mike Hayes, who made plenty of basketball his- tory for Wilby in the form of vic- tories over Crosby have rounded up @ Wilby Alumni team that vii play a Crosby graduate array lassoed by Tom Wagner, the old speedball of the court who came to practice once a season, when new uniforms were being distributed. His career at Pennsylvania was a great one, though he will have some classy talent to pit against Wilby when the first whistle blows tomorrow night, the game to be played under the old rules. Henry Darlington, Tom Dunlap, Jiggs Donahue, George McNamara and Howie Kraft, in ad- dition to Wagner himself will be pit- ted against Christoforo, Hayes, Ray Snyder, Jimmy Dunlap, Duster Mur- phy and others.
 Both games bid fair to be excep- tionally interesting, with two sets of rules. and two teams from the same two schools.

of all is the simple sugar, glucose,
and, according to A. C. Roberts, who
made ga study of the speed absorp-
tion of glucose" it enters the blood
stream much more rapidly than any
other type of carbohydrate and as
an energy food would thus be the
most efficient of all.
In cases where there is q sensitive
digestive tract, in convalescent and
other states, the exhibition Of glu-
cose as an energizer has good theo-
retical reasons for it's use. In any
such considerations the study should
take into account not only the food
itself but also the consumer, and the
state of mind and physical health of
the human individual is just as i'm
portant as the food itself. I
For a healthy individual we may
assume that any vegetable starch
cooked to his taste will be as eff
cient as any other, but these studies
do indicate that the popularity of
the potato and of corn has some
sort of experimental scientific basis.

substances known as rose and blue
amylose. In the course Of cooking
apparently rose amylose is changed
to blue amylose. This is the chemi-
cal change that makes cooked
starches more readily digested and
absorbed. There is more rose
amylose in wheat, corn, rice and
barley starches and relatively little
IN potato, arrowroot, tapioca and
aago.
Takes Two Hours
1t requires about two hours to
change the rose amylose into blue
amylose so a shorter cooking time
Is required to render potato, arrow
root, tapioca and sago digestible.
However, the difference is more
theoretical than real because the
greater appetizing effect of cooked
corn and cereal offsets the question
OF cooking time.
Other experiments in which not
only the length of time it took for
digestion in the stomach to occur
but also Intestinal digestion and alb
sorption, would indicate that corn,
Wheat and rice flours are more COM
pletely digested than potato and the
other starches noted.
