Well, it's New Years. Time to
look back and look ahead Thru
this column we've seen four such
events pass. And it's all been in
teresting. I can think Of relatively
few events that haven't captured
our interest I'd say that tops
among them Is this annual high
school basketball race It starts
off with something hot. It is often
not too good for Sank Centre. But
the whole picture of the district
has moved so steadily during these
six years we've followed the scene,
that we are amazed :.
It's no snap course, though, this
trying to opinionate and judge. We
have personally found it at times
most trying. We have counted
teams out of the race only to have
them bob back up in full swing to
spill the dope in our faces, We have
doped others to carry on and they
fell by the wayside &. . But we like
it. We like it because it's great
drama, great action :. . We have
Pollyannaed a lot on the theory
that boys respond better to slaps on
the back than kicks in the stats .
But we believe, too, it is much a
part in the training of an athlete
for him to receive graciously the
good or critical press reports. We
find that they do Besides that
we're not the coach. Our opinions
are ours alone They show reflec-
ton of the streets thinking; that
of the coaches. But once express
sed must remain ours-we're stuck
with them It's our job to give
people a picture of what goes on as
we see it. It's also our job, we in
terpret it, if not to actually help
the coach and the boys then don't
get in their way It hasn't
worked out badly. We've found
greater harmony accruing to us
from those involved because of it.
Besides it has saved us from pos
sible black eyes-So Happy New
Year to all of you.

EAGLE OPPOSES
 MANN TONIGHT

New Haven, Feb. 13-Nathan Mann Of Hamden, New England heavyweight champion, ruled a 3to 1 favorite over Charley Eagle of Wa terbury, for their 12-round title bout at the Arena tonight, with many of the local fight followers looking for an upset.
 Eagles followers point out that the Brass City Pole has never been kayoed, and that his record shows he has fought the best heavyweights and light-heavyweights in the busi- ness. They also add the fact that Eagle goes better against a puncher than against boxer.
 Mann is a better, and when Eagle is hurt he really fights. He is the "lazy" type of warrior who has to be hurt to put on the power. Charlie punches well with the right him. self. and he is a damaging body puncher. The unpredictable Mann kayoed Hobo Williams in his last start. showing his best form in a year Nate is listed to box Gus Les nevich in Detroit in tow weeks, but loss tonight will about ruin the match.
 Flashy George Fitch, New Haven Negro, will box Johnny Synder wilkes Barre, Pa. heavyweight, ill the semi-final of eight rounds. Syn der has wins over Max Marek and Jimmy Adamick.

Webb And Tucker Fight Next Week
 For Title Chance

New York, Feb. 13-Mike Jacobs has moved fast to avoid unneces- sary wrangling over the matter of successor to Billy Conn when the light-heavyweight champion re- linquishes his crown to go after the heavyweight title in June.
 As usually happens when a cham, pion voluntarily yields his laurels, two, three, sometimes four or more pretenders put in claims for the title. Such figured to be the case, too in the present instance when a couple of light-heavies claimed the title the moment Conn indi- cated he planned to abdicate.
 Jacobs put quick stop to that, however, by rounding up the four leading light-heavyweights in the world, pairing them in two matches and then bringing the two survivors together in contest which will again establish a universally recog- nized titleholder.
 Next Week
 The first of these two contests takes place one week from tonight at Madison Square Garden when Jimmy Webb, of St. Louis, opposes Tommy Tucker, East Rockaway, l.. l., ill a bout scheduled for fifteen rounds. The other two top conten- ders, Anton Christofordidis. of Greece, and Gus Lesnevich, Cliff side, N. J., clash ill a fifteen-rounder OF May 9 The meeting between the two winners will take place in the spring or early summer.
 This arrangement has received the blessing of the New York State Athletic Commission; and it is diff ficult to see how the N. B. A. can offer any objections.
 Webb and Tucker are in hard training for their contest next Friday. The St. Louis fighter is working at Madame Beys camp ill Summit, N. J.. Tucker at Still mans Gymnasium in New York.
 The two have met one before. They boxed the semi-final to the Billy Conn-Bob Pastor fight at the Garden last Sept. 6. On that occa- sion Tucker appeared to have the upper hand until the last two rounds when he suffered cut over the eye which seriously handicapped his efforts. Webb came on to win the decision but the verdict in his favor did not set well with the customers.
