1unney Lost Modern Who
Rightly Valued Condition

There's another thing" Sharkey
added. "The good fighter must have
good legs. I've always been great
believer in road work. Most of these
modern fighters don't even know
what real road work is. I mean 10
or IL miles day. And through
many days-or many weeks. Or even
many months. I'd say Gene Tun-
ney was the last of the crop who
knew what condition meant. Tun-
ney worked hard for six years to be
ready for Dempsey-and he really
worked.
"The boys today don't want to be
bothered about this road work stuff
They'd rather ride. If you haven t
got good legs you haven't got a
chance. I don't know who'll beat
Joe Louis, but the one who does will
have trained lot harder and will
have better legs. Too much success
Is bound to make you soft in time.
II know that nobody trains today
the way Jefries, Corbett and I
trained for a fght-I mean road
work, shadow boxing, skipping the
rope and sparring partner workouts.
We put In about eight hours a day
at hard work-and I mean hard
work.
"This fight game is a tough game.
The answer is that you rarely ever
have over two or three good men on
the job. This is from many thou
sands. Look over the list of fighters
today. How many good ones are
there, especially in the heavyweight
division? Ill let you answer that
one"

Jeff Wosn't Close to Old
Self Against Johnson

And yet I think he is the great
est--or at least one of the greatest
heavyweights that ever lived. JEFF
was big, strong and fast. He was
dead game and murderous puncher
with that left hand He was hard
to hurt. I don't believe there ever
was another fighter who could take
the ating that Jeffries could take
AS some said about him: You might
as well be punching hydrant.
Later on he became a much better
boxer-good enough to box about
even with Jim Corbett.
He wasn't even close to the real
sefiries when he fought Jack John
son. He was the hollow shell they
called him later. A middle-aged
fellow who had been out of training
for Ave or six years. I know Jack
johnson never beat the fellow
fought at Coney Island-not by 10
miles"
I asked Old Tom, the sailor, what
It took to make a good or a great
fighter.
Many things" he said. "and that's
why there are so few good fighters.
First of all there must be heart and
speed-the fighting heart, plus fast
hands and fast footwork. After
that there must be the ability to take
1t. A good fighter must be able to
punch-and also able to take a
punch. These are two of the i'm
portant things-the old give and

Berth in Interhigh Series

Junior teams. In a year or two,
however, Chamberlain feels 1t will
be ready for senior high competi-
ton and wants 10 get into the
championship race in basket ball
anyway, with football and baseball
competition probably to come later.
1t has a good gym in which to
practice and hold basket ball games,
but its facilities for football and
baseball are somewhat limited at
present.
Place in Series Asked.
Ages of the players run from IA
to Is and in another year some OF
them will be l8, top limit permitted
in interhigh sports. Some OF them
are big boys-there are at least
two 6-footers-and before long they
should be able to enter cage COM
petition on even terms.
Entering interhigh sports COM
petition is not just wishful think
ing on the part of the Chamberlain
School coach and his boys. Pre-
liminary conversations have been
held with District school offlcials
on the matter and while nothing is
definite it may be that Chamber
lain several years from now will be
admitted with the others on ar
equal athletic footing.
The school is patterned after
Baltimore's Vocation School, which
participates in senior high activities
in that city.

the school is hard to At into any

Woman Pro Net Stars Clinic
Is Highly Valuable Offering

Miss Marble and her fellow troup-

and Don Budge-are due to resume
their trip at Pittsburgh tonight with

accident.
They move to Philadelphia for an

versity of Maryland's Ritchie Coli

the serious local tennis player than
the exhibition at College Park.

Coach Cres Brides Montgomery
Blair basket ball players hope they
have all the bad playing out Of their
system. Readying for their impor-
tant game Thursday night against
Bethesda Chevy Chase, the Blairs
were swamped yesterday by a good
Landon team, 31-17.
For Landon it was a successful
passage of real hurdle toward what
now looms as its most successful
season in years, giving 1t q record
of five victories in seven starts. 1t
was the eighth defeat against three
victories for Blair. While taking no
credit from Landon, Blair was not
at full strength, with several key
players still suffering the effects of
colds.
Coach Bride expects to have all
players in shape for the first time
this month when they meet the
Barons.

Girl Official Steals
Show as Ice Hockey
Result Is Debated

Claims and counter claims were
being advanced today as the River
side Ice Mice and Capital Casino
ice hockey teams both claimed vic
tory in a free scoring match at
Riverside yesterday.
Anne Rider, the 1O0-pound girl
referee, who stole the show with
her alert of1iciating and knowledge
Of the rules, upheld the Ice Mices
claim of a 14-10 victory.
S. G.. Leomer, jr., son of the
Washington Eagles owner, just as
stubbornly maintained that the
Casinos won, 8 to Z, and that goals
scored over that number were, by
mutual agreement Of the competing
teams, not counted.
The warning factions probably will
clash again at Riverside Friday
night in 15-minute game that will
follow the meeting of the Washing
ton Eagles and Baltimore Orioles.

GoIdstein Recalls Friday Date,
Spares Mcdowell; Fights in
March Planned by Avis
Herr Yussell Goldstein committed

Herr Yussell Goldstein committed
a slight case of mayhem on the body
and person of Bill Mcdowell at
Turner's Arena last night in winning
an easy, eight-round verdict. But
the customers-all 77S of them-were
not completely satisfied. For 81 40
tops, they felt entitled to a second
degree case of murder at least.
Moreover, they had feeling that
Yussell was hiding his Hght-Eavbe
that should be right-under a buShel
and their diagnosis was cor. ect You
see GoldStein has a date with Andre
JeSserun at White Plains, N. Z, Fri
day night and had 70 conserve as
much strength as possible. He sue
ceeded very well although he almost
forgot himself in the final round and
put the chill on 'whacky William.
Apparently a turned-around
southpaw,, Yussell bent Mcdowell
into the general shape of a rheu-
matte pretzel in that final round
with succession Of lefts to the mid
section. But when Mcdowell seemed
ready to go" Goldstein suddenly
remembered Friday night ana his
date with JeSserun and eased up on
the Texan. He must have known
Willy is tender in the mid-riff for
he had him holding like a pro
basket ball player as early as the
fourth round when stray shot
almost put Mcdowell on deck. His
refusal to follow up caused no little
speculation among the customers.
Alexander Shows Promise.
While the bout was strictly on the
level and Mcdowell took enough
punishment for his purse. it came
Immediately after Chairman Claude
Owen of the boxing commission had
promised to pay stricter attention
to fighters performances with par
ticular regard for bag" fights Mr..
Owen said any evidence OF fixed
matches would be thoroughly in
vestigated and any boxers or mana
gers involved prosecuted to the full
extent of the law.
Carol kid Alexander, young
Alexandria featherweight, estab-
lished himself as the most promising
youngster to come out of amateur
ranks since George Abrams gradu-
alton by pounding out q decisive A.
round verdict over Pee Wee Lewis.
Alexander had everything but a
satisfactory defense for Lewis in
frequent rights to the head. He
should 60 places.

ting for ailing Joe Boscerino, gave

for illegal tactics, notably rabbit
punches.
In other bouts Ell Brookman out
pointed Johnny Yellovich in six
rounds; Roy Dunn drew with Jim

scored over Buddy Holmes in six.

Table Net Field Here

Men in Nation
PoeIioro, Hord-Hittins
Champ, Is Among Them;
Dancing Pair Enters

With no less than seven of the
country's 10 best men players due
to compete, Washington is destined
to see brand Of table tennis 1t
never has enjoyed before during the
Eastern championships at Heurich
gym Saturday and Sunday.
you can forget all about that
kind of table tennis the average en-
thusiast plays in his own cellar or
recreation room" Referee George H.
Foster was saying today. for the
kind of game such kids as Lou Pagli-
aro, Sol Schiff, Cy Sussman and Les
Lowry play will be revelation.
They're no push-ball slappers,
with feet firmly planted and merely
content to return the ball. Why,
these fellows cover yards Of ground
playing just one shot First they're
up to the edge of the table. then
they're chased back as far as 9 feet,
then they're TO one side and then
to the other.
And when Paggv is called a slug
ging' champ. the adiective's not mis-
used. He really hits EN- hard"
Foster, major in the Reserve
Corps on active duty at the War De-
partment, has been active in local
table tennis circles ever since the
D. C. T. T. A. was formed in 1890.
That he is considered a widely
known authority on the game is seen
by the fact that he is chairman
of the National Rules Committee.
Any disputes in the coming sectional
tournament will be settled by him.
Oficials announced today the re-
| ceipt of entries from Wallie and Yer
dyn Stapleton, a dancing team
which will appear at the Earle The
ater next week The Stapletons. Mr..
and Mrs. in private life, say they
have played table tennis in every
State of the Union and want TO
capitalize on an opportunity both
to include the District in that claim
as we'll as meet some of the best
paddlers in the game today.

Stanford Teams Great Spirit,
AIbert's Superb GeneroIship
Amazing to Shoughnessy

Frankie Albert, the wonder-work-
ing little quarterback Of the In
dians, and about the winning spirit
Shaughnessy ran into at Stanford.
Il never saw anything like it" he
said a trif1e breathlessly, referring
to the school spirit first. Honest,
I'm convinced now that spirit is
about 80 per cent of winning team.
Maybe it's 80 per cent. Those boys
of mine and the student body both
amazed me. They had fun"
The man who went from a single
victory at Chicago in 1899 to an all
winning season at Stanford in 1910
was even more rhetorical about
Albert, his all-America field gen.
eral.
There's boy" he exulted. Hes
little fellow. you know-only about
$50 or l65 pounds-but what foot
ball he played for me. He's left
footed and left-handed and isn't a
good enough blocker or runner TO
play halfback on anybody's team.
But he made us the perfect quarter
back.
Hes bundle of fire, smart as g
whip and quick If the length oi
some of his kicks hadn't been cut
down by rolling over the goal line
I think he would have set an all
time punting record He got of one
quick kick that went almost the
length of the field.
Albert Full of Mischief"
Hes full of mischief, too. To-
ward the end of a game, when we
were ahead and his cue was to play
safe, he would start looking over
toward me, grinning and making
motions like he was going to throw
pass. Ran me nearly crazy some
times.
However" ShaughneSSv hurriedly
inserted. we had four exceptionally
fine backs. We had the conference s
leading ground gamer and its lead
ing scorers. Albert Just happened to
stand out because that job of han
ding the ball in our ''T'' formation
