Mr.. Fitz Revisited

MIAMI, FEB. 16-So many people in sports these
days talk OF development Branch Hickey speaks hope
fully OF developing 200 more major league balpayers
to fill up the Continental League. The American Foot
ball League owners talk of developing cities like Dallas
and Buffalo into pro hotbeds Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons
he talks dreamuy of a of jockeys.
Something's got to be DONE" Mr.. Fitz unused as he
sat IN the Florida THE Jockey Club has got
to realize that making jockeys important breeding
horses.
Racing ought to have farm system, like in base
ball. Young kids have got to get chance to ride If
they're not good enough well, they fall back to
else boys We haven't got enough of those boys either
The trainer, almost 86, put it this way:
This year there some 900 yearlings Some
years there Most going to the races but
who's to ride them? Look at the riders your big stakesI
You find the same old familiar names Arcaro Guern,
Longden, Woodhouse. All of these fellows way past
40 years of age"
MR. FITz WAS SPEAKING informally but there was
suspicion that this bent old man. dean of all trainers,
could and willingly would wrap up his argument in
tidy package if The Jockey Club wanted his views.
I'VE have few younger jockeys who very good.
Little Shoemaker he's fine boy. Howard Grant is
good Willie Hartack ride. But my goodness there
are many old fellows"
1t is Mr. Ftzs notion that if horses are handicapped
by weight jockeys should be rated the way as this
radcal? he asks "In the old days used system of
that sort boy who had 20 races was placed in
classification different from boy who'd
If the handicappers going to assign one horse
13O pounds and another 0 why adjust the riders?
Take Eddie Arcaro Now he's good friend of mine and
great jockey and he rides my stable when I've got
good horse and I get him. I'm just using Arcaro
as example; hope he won't mind But if those top
jockeys can't give 10 pounds to riders with lesser ks
then they're riding under false pretenses.
I'm other words, horse may get 9-pound pull from
the top ranked in If the lowerrated horse has
green kid on him-a boy who might make it day as
top rider fall back to exercise boy-why not give
him 10 pounds Arcaro? Or total of 10 pounds for
horse and jockey"
ALTHOUGH SUNNY JIM seems physically ft-and
he's certainly mentally alert-t might not be too soon
for The Jockey Club to hear him Mr. Ftz is not going
to forever. True, he belongs different genera

After only one year in the

Not since 1858 has a Wash
tngton Golden Glover hit the
jackpot in the Eastern Tourna-
ment of Champions at New
York, but a likely group of con-
tenders for Eastern titles will
be on view Thursday night
when the semifinal round of
The Star-sponsored tournament
will be run off with II bouts at
Uline Arena. Starting time is
$3.50.
Norman Smith, the smooth
working featherweight, was the
last Washington Glover to win
a title in the Eastern show.
Smith not only won the Eastern
featherweight in 1858, but he
also captured the National Col
den Gloves title at Chicago that
year.
Washington Glovers were
shut out in New York last year,
but local fans will agree that
the 1860 District representatives
are above average. Those who

Team Leaves Feb. 27
The Washington team, with
a full complement of eight box
ers, is scheduled to take off for
New York on February 81 and
will begin boxing February 90
in preliminary trials. The semi
finals and finals of the Eastern
championships will be held in
Madison Square Garden on
Wednesday, March 2.
Washington teams have had
some great moments in the
Gloves. Smith led the team to
victory in 1858. Capital City
Glovers also won team cham
pionships in 1914, 1949, 1854
and 1855. Only New York
teams have a better record in
the Eastern show, which began
in 1887.

Jordan Stirred
AS NBA Lifts
Moore'sTit|e

PROVIDENCE. R. l., Feb. l6
(AP).-The National Boxing
Association has lifted old
Archie Moore's ight-h e a wy
weight title and is casting COW
etous glances at still another
crown-the one worn by We'll
terweight Don Jordan.
Moore, at his home in San
Diego. was so upset on hearing
of the NBA action yesterday
that he went to bed and, on
the advice Of his doctor, took
Sedatives.
He snapped back bitterly at
the announcement by MIA
President Anthony Maceroni's
announcement the title is being
vacated because Moore failed to
defend it within the prescribed
six months.
1T took an undertaken MA
ceroni'S occupationD to take the
title away from me-" he said.
That's something a challenger
was never able to do"

1t is for the same reason
inactivity - that the NBA is
keeping close track of Jordan.
He was warned he had to sign
for a title defense against one
of the top four challengers be-
fore today or his title would be
taken away.
Apparently he just made the
d a dime. His co-manager,
Jackie Mccoy, announced late
last night in Los Angeles that
the champion would meet
Cuba's Benny kid Paret in
Las vegas on May 70 or II.
Must Get Clearance
Paret, who has a 30-6-2 rec
ord. is one of four top-ranked
contenderS. The others are Luis
Rodriguez, also from Cuba, who
is the No. l challenger; and
Federico Thompson, who hand

career last November in a non
title fight in Argentina.

lem of getting clearance from

All-America West in the Noun
taineers' lineup this year gives
an extra flip to the occasion.
The Mountaineers are sailing
along in their usual first place
in the Southern Conference,
now in its windup week of reg
ular season play, with a 81
record, 20-3 overall. CIV is in
the middle of the pack at 6-5
and 1879.
Two Saturdays ago at West
Virginia, the Colonials took a
l0l-79 setback from the
Mountaineers, but on their
part-time home court tomor-
row night expect to do better.
They're not favored to win, but
the gap should be smaller.
West, a junior from Cabin
Creek. w. Va, is one of those
good all-around players. He's
averaging 28.3 points a game,
good for fourth place in the
country. But were he getting
only one-third or less of that
average. he'd have a place on
the Mountaineers' starting team
because of his defensive ability.
He gets much more than his
share of the rebounds, despite
being only 6-foot-3, no great
height for a college player to-
day. And a lot of his scoring
is from outside.
Tomorrow nights game isn't
expected to be any one-man
show by any means. The
Mountaineers have other good
players, and the Colonials also
have several of whom they're
proud. Little Jon Feldman is
among the CIV standouts. His
scoring average of 1919 dosen't
compare to Vests, but it's good
for fourth in the conference.

16 AP).-Controversy f1ared on
two fronts and the injury list
spiraled to IA today with the
Winter Olympic Games fast
approaching their Thursday

Most seriously hurt was Bat

The 20-year-old Pordon un-

One of the disputes-two-

the other on selection of the
German Alpine downhill ski

In Colorado Springs, Colo,
Rudolph Eklowe, Swedish del

Hockey Federation, declared
hockey would not be played if
organizers don't accept an IL

opening day is planned.
Walter Brown of Boston. a
federation director, said they
would meet with organizers to-
day, adding, that many games

While the controversy boiled,
Czechoslovakian Coach Eduard
Farda charged hockey playing
conditions were "atrocious."
He claimed ice in both the

Maryland has the greatest
home-court advantage of any
team in the Atlantic Coast
Conference, Coach Press Mar
aVich of Clemson was saying
last night. after the Terps
trimmed his Tigers, 70-55.
Maravich was not putting all
the blame on spacious Cole
Field House for his teams de-
feat-he said Clemson lost be-
cause the players stood around
instead Of moving-but he said
the supposedly model indoor
arena contributed to it.
His words were surprising be-
cause Clemson, with its rabid
rooters and dusky, small, old
gym in Death Valley generally
Is conceded to be the team with
the biggest home-court advan-
tage in the conference.
mo sir. a team spots Mary
land more points in coming
here than any team spots us at
Clemson" Press said.
Boys Lose Perspective
"The boys lose their perspec-
tive in this big place" the
Clemson coach added. There's s
no background, no target. It's
like shooting at a basket out in
a field some place. A team
should spend a week here be-
fore playing, not a few min
uteS."
Take Choppy Patterson, I"
Maravich said, speaking of the
clever sophomore who is Glenn
sons leading scorer. That's
the. worst night he's had all
season, and it wasn't because
OF anything that Maryland did
defensively.
"Choppy is from Piedmont,
8. c. You could put the whole
town OF. Piedmont in the cor
ner section of this gym. He
came in here Sunday night to
practice and his jaw dropped
and his eyes popped. He'd
never seen anything like it.
And he was a foot or two short
on all of his practice shots.
What did he make tonight?"
Maravich asked. He answered
his question by looking at the
statistics sheet. Three for is.
That's pitiful.
Look at those rebounds.
Press said, "47 to II. I've
never had a team out-rebound-
ed that much"
TerpS Turn on Speed
1t would have been interest,"
ing to have talked with the
loquacious Clemson coach at
halftime. because then the
Tigers were leading, 1923. But
after the game, in which his
team came up with it's second
worst performance of the
season, in his opinion, Press
was unhappy. He didn't say
whether he would trade Cole
Field House for the Clemson
gym-even up.
Basketball fans who watch
Maryland break open some of
its games with a most effective
use of the fast break wonder
why the Terps ever resort to
showdown tactics.
Last night. for instance, the
Terps turned on the speed in
the second half and raced past
