HospitoIized for II Years,
Boy Emerges Into New World

range and the refrigerator" his
mother said today, land when he
first came home, he asked me what
we called the different rooms in
the house You see, he was only IL
months old when he first was taken
to hospital, and since then he
never had been in an ordinary
house"
But Carl won't be backward If the
kids at school start doing tricks He
has a honey that he can spring
writing with his feet.
The boy learned to do that when
he was forced to lie fiat on a bed
at the New England Peabody Hospi-
tai In Newton. He learned later BY
hand
And, if any of his playmates boast
about the window they broke playing
baseball. he can tell how he broke a
plate glass window in the hospital
while propelling his "gocart" "a
three wheeled cot which was his
home for four years.
During his illness Carl got the
equivalent of three years of school,
ing So he will enter the fourth
grade, travelling back and forth by
bus.

He's fondled dog and a cat. He's
walked barelegged in the luxury of
pine needles near his home by Old

outdoor water instead of just tubs
like we had in the hospital" He's

Past Failures

It's hard to imagine Billy Conn,
fancy boxer, plastering the ten count
on any of these gentlemen Of past
era. Why, then, is 1t likely that he
can do any better with Louis, who
is generally acclaimed as being their
equal?
The record shows that few light
heavyweights have had much sue
cess when they tried to crash the
heavyweight field.
Fitzsimmons, of course, went from
the light-heavyweight ranks to be-
come champion. But Fitzsimmons
was more or less pugilistic freak.
There hasn't been a terrific hitter like
him in the 175-pound class since his
day. Bob had the waist and legs of
a featherweight and the shoulders
Of big heavyweight. He had as
much power in his arms as any man
in the ring.
Fitz was at his best when he
weighed about ITO pounds. On St.
Patrick's day, 1897, he won the title
from Jim Corbett in Carson City,
New. On that occasion he had all
the qualifications of a heavyweight
but the poundage. He lost the title
two years later to Jim Jeffries when
his hands weren't able to stand up
under the power Of his arms.

Speaking Of
SPORTS
BY ROBERT McSHANE
Released by Western Newspaper Union

-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
RLLY CONN of Pittsburgh, light
- heavyweight champion, has
been awarded crack at the heavy
weight crown of Joe Louis in bout
to be promoted by Mike Jacobs next
June.
This fact has done little to dispel
the fear that Louis reign will con-
tinue indefinitely. There is no foun-
dation for such an idea. Old age
will creep up ON Joe sooner or
later. But the ranking Of Conn
as No. 1 contender for the heavy
weight title seems to indicate that
no challenger will tumble champion
Louis of his throne during the new
year.
1t is strange that so many fistic
customers are enthusiastic about
Conn's chances. Some of the most
calloused boxing experts regard
Louis as one of the greatest cham
pions Of all time. Indeed, many Of
them ran out Of adjectives in de-
scribing his killer instinct, his calm,
cruel workmanship, his terrific pow
er. Such a rating classes Louis
with Jack Dempsey, John L. Sulli-
van, Jim Corbett, Gene Tunney. Bob
Fitzsimmons, Jim Jeffries and Jack
Johnson.

Another Attempt

Quite a few modern fighters have
given away too many pounds for
their own good. Tommy Gibbons,
who was little more than a light
heavyweight, though a very good
fighter, tried to take the title from
Dempsey in the famous Shelby.
Mont, bout. He failed.
The ight-heavyweights didn't try
again until Max Schmeling weaseled
his way into the heavyweight title
by virtue of a foul claimed against
Jack Sharkey, the Boston COB. When
Der Max was installed as champ,
Jack Kearns, who had piloted
Dempsey to the title, was managing
Mickey Walker. Kearns thought
Mickey could whip Schmeling and
attempted to prove it. Walker had
knocked over bigger men than
Schmeling and packed a killing
punch in either hand. But Mickey
proved no match for the German
and Kearns' hopes were dashed in
the eighth round.
