Ct. PETERSBURG happens to be
baseball's headquarters in Flor.
ida, with the Cardinals and Yankees
surrounded by the Red Sox, Tigers,
Reds and Senators, with the Braves
and Athletics not too far away,
Here at least are most of the pen
nant contenders. But baseball isn't
all they talk about.
| The athlete, relaxing under the
soft moon, is likely to talk about
anything after the days work is
over, On this particular occasion
we had a mixture of Yankees and
Cardinals in one group and they
were talking about the boxing game.
They were talking about the mis-
takes that Joe Louis could make if
ne listened to Sol Strauss and Madi-
son Square Garden, rather than fol-
low his own native instincts.
Strauss is interested SO per
cent in the money side and 2 per
cent in the sporting side which
is natural in his position. Jer-
sey Joe Walcott, no whirlwind
as a fighter, deserves far bet
ter break than he has been Of
fered.
The ballplayers all knew this.
They were somewhat amazed at the
stand Louis had taken in regard to
the June fight. They couldn't un-
derstand how Louis had slipped SO
far, especially in connection with a
lighter from his own race. Appar-
emily they knew little about the in
side motives Of the fight game and
couldn't understand why any fight
manager should get 10 per cent.
much less 80 or so per cent. ,Thev
Piled their trade without any DER
cent. You had to agree with them
here. I've never known a fight man
ager worth Is per cent. Even 10
per cent is q high cut. A few can
qualify beyond this mark.
AT least we don't have to be
mixed up with those punks,"
one star outfelder said. "We
are on our own. How did fight
ers ever get mixed up with
managers, anyway"
There could only be one answer.
Around 80 per cent of all fighters
are too dumb to know any of the
answers. They needed someone who
could add. One exception was Gene
Tunney who happened to be consid-
erably smarter than any manager
around. Jack Dempsey got smarter
. little later on. Among the smart
lighters today we can give you Gus
Lesnevich. The odds are he is no
80 per cent sucker.
