THE WRONG SLANT HERE

THE WRONG SLANT HERE =
There is something basically
wrong in salary scales when foot
ball coach is the third highest paid
employee in the state. Maryland's
coach drew $16,875 in 1852 after
getting a raise of $4,875 during
the year. Three-fourths of Mary
lands citizens don't get as much
in a year as the coach got in his
raise.
Only Maryland university's presi-
dent and director of the mental
hygiene commission got more
money this year, the former S22,-
800 and the latter $4,000. By COM
parison the governors annual
salary is only $4,000, the lowest in
the nation.
The governor apparently was in
viting the legislators to swing the
axe on appropriations when he de-
clared he was mot welded" to his
budget proposals.

WHAT MAKES A LEADER? :

/
In answer to a question, "What
qualities must one have or cult
vate i'm order to be a leader among
his fellows?" which the editor of
Progressive Farmer asked Eisen-
hover before he was elected presi-
dent, the chief executive said: an
order to be a leader, a man must
have followers. And to have fol-
lowers a leader must have their
confidence. Hence the supreme
quality for a leader is unquestion-
ably integrity. Without it no real
success is possible, no matter
whether it is on a section gang, or
football field, in an army or in an
office. If mans associates find
him guilty of phoniness, if they
find that he lacks fortnight integ-
rity, he will fail. His teachings and
actions must square with each
other. The first great need there
fore is integrity and high purpose.
Next | would name optimism.
Nothing defeats one so quickly as
lack of faith-that means a readi-
ness to be defeated.
"The third great quality needed
by any leader is love of people. No
body should enter any occupation
where he must deal daily with
people unless he loves people. A
leader must get others to do things
he asks of them because they like
him and wish to help him, and find
pleasure in helping him."

Spoi|er Minis
Facing Dearth
Of Foes Again
Eighth-Round Koyo
Ends Troy's Streak;
Bout Draws 3,174
BY George Huber

T. Holly Minis really deserves his
title Of spoiler. The Washing
ton m'ddleweight did it again
last night when he upset here
tofore unbeaten Willie Troy. also
Of Washington. at Uline Arena.
Minis lett no doubt about the
verdict He knocked out the
lanKy TROY with a sharp right
to the chin at 1853 of the eighth
round. Troy had been a 7-to-5
favorite to win his goth straight
fight.
From now on, Minis may find
it tougher than ever to get fights.
Ever since he beat Johnny Brat
ton twice in 1850 and gave Sugar
Ray Robinson a good battle in
1851. Minis has had trouble
finding opponents He managed
to get oniv five fights last year,
and last nights bout was the
first since his upset triumph over
Lester FELTON, in November.
The fight. staged as benefit
for the st. Sophia Church build
ing fulio, drew a crowd of 3,174.
The gross gate was $12,875 and
the net 1882.
Almost Saved by Bell.
The end came with surprising
suddenness late in the eighth
round. Referee Ray Bowen's
count Of 10 and the bell ending
the round came practically to-
gether. and many of the Gus
toners thought Troy had been
saved by the bell. The official
time was 2:59, however, only one
second before the round ended,
1t was really fine fight
throughout. and on two of the
scorecardS Troy was ahead going
into the eighth. Judge Joe Bunsa
had Troy leading 1854 in points
and four rounds to three, and
Judge Harry Dwyer had Troy
64-59 and So in rounds. Referee
Ray Bowen was off in the other
direction, with Minis owning a
big 65-52 margin and five rounds
to two. ..- .--a.. :.
Both fighters gave out punish
ment and there were few clinches
to slow down the fight. Minis
adopted sliding back style, jab-
bling away and occasionally
bouncing up with hard furries
The advancing. long-armed Troy

Zeisz' Hopes of Making Mats
Hang on Finding 7ipoff of Pitch
BY Burton Hawkins
Stor Staff Correspondent

ORLANDO, Fla, Mar. S.
Zeke zeiSz is a bespectacled
part-time boat carpenter whose
best pitch is a knuckle-ball
curve Trouble is, he tipped off
the pitch after winning seven
straight games with Chat
tanooga last season, and isn't
confident he can make the grade
with the Mats unless that flaw is
eliminated.
II don't know what I do to
give the pitch away" Zeke said.
Some people tell me I move my
mouth when I'm about to throw
a knuckler. Others say I show
'em what's coming when I'm in
the process of winding up-that
they can detect my getting a
grip on the ball.
Nobody down here has tried
to correct that fault" Zeisz con-
tinued, 80 maybe they don't
know what I'm doing wrong
either" s..
Harris Sees Nothing Wrong.
Bucky Harris, an expert at
discovering flaws in pitching
motions, watched Zeke intently
during batting practice recently
and couldn't find weakness.
Il couldn't see where he was
doing anything wrong" Bucky
said, "but maybe we'll find out
something when he's in compe-
tition."
Zeke, otherwise identified as
