DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT THI’RSDSY. JANUARY 2.’». 191(1

Today’s Sport Parade * By Henry McLemore lets Angeles. Jan 25 (U.R) Home of my best friends an- bee*, and I wouldn’t say anything against them for anything, but they are- not *u<*h models of industry as they are made- out to he. You login to realize this when you sit down and talk with Alice .Marble, the greatest wuman tennis player In the world There never was a Lee that kept a* busy a* Alice doe*. She ha* an ocrupalion for each hour tn the day Wl-.i n ghe isn’t playing tennis she is designing < led lies When she isn’t designing c lothes she is before a mricro* phone < roonitig <-f a lovely flame that has died away. In between times she confer* with the motion picture studio that wants to make hei g second Sonja Henle, and play* golf and a little baseball The chance* are that by next week «he will have taken up midget auto racing trapshooting, or throwing the taher Sitting with her yesterday after a round of golf it wa* difficult to make her talk of tennis. »o varied Mr e her interest*. But we finally did get around to tenni*. and she told me a rather remarkable thing. Remarkable that la. for a champion She admitted that the one thing which had hrid her Wack as a tennis player tff you can consider a girl who has won three of the last four national c hampionships and holds the Wimbledon title a* well, held back! I* a lack of what we sportswriter* call the "killer ln*tinci.” "I Just haven't got It." she said. "When I gc-t « few games or a set ahead I cantiul keep myself from letting up t'onaclously, I soften my game and ease up on the preaaure And I know enough aI bout sport* to know that the great champion* never did that When

Dempsey knocked a rival down three times he wanted to knock him down three more time* Bobby Jone* and Walter Hagen increated the pressure whin they got ahead of an opponent Tilden, Budge and Helen Wills Moody Roark were the same way In tennis I’ve tried to make myself do the same thing, but it was no uae I know I would have won more matches and < hamplonshlp* had I possessed what you fellows call the ''killer spirit." I asked Alice If that were the reason for her alurnp against Helen Jacobs tn the final rounds of the nationals at Forest Hills last summer That was the time, you will recall, when Alice won the first set at love with scarcely the loss of a point, and then wa* Just three game* away froth losing the title In the third and final set “Mo," she answered, "that was not the cause It was Helen'* courage and fight that nearly upset me that day. And while we are •peaking of that match, let me correct something that you and a dozen other* who reported the match wrote. Most of you said that I choked up In the final set because I knew that victory was worth fifty or sixty thousand dollar* to me. and that this knowledge madi- me nervous That's not true. If I had stopped to think about such a thing as that Helen would have beaten me You can't let your mind wander that far in a final round match and still win. The truth is. most athletes have the allllaat thoughts during critical moment* When I wa* IM-hlnd 1 3 in the final aet I remembered what a fortune teller had told me In Han Francisco month* before. The gypsy had told me that I would win the title, hut only after a bad scare All ot a sodden that prediction gave me confidence and I started hitting my ahot* the way

ARMSTRONG IS FIGHT WINNER Henry Armstrong II ammen Pedro Montanez Into Helpless Hulk New York. Jan. 25 il'Pi Holst Hu -form wattling*, for llurricinn Henry is blowing death anti disaster again. Hammerin’ Ih-nry Armstrong a human gale of flying fist*, restalne<i his world welterweight championship last night and when Hie storm finally passed by Madison Square Garden and men ttepl out to pick UP the pie<cs. they found a broken, bleeding fighter Pedro Montanez He had shaken his fist at thlightning and the Hurricane had wre« ked him For 21 minutes and 47 tuuonds Montanez stood tip against Hurricane Henry. Punches landed <m itlni from the right, from the left, from above, from la-low and from somewhere over the raintmw They stung him. they dazed him and, worst of all they <tlt him until the light side of bis face was a red smear and the blood that he blinked out of his eye rolled to his shoulder and on down in his wrist So after 27 seconds of the ninth round referee Billy Cavanagh commanded th-.- Hurricane to stand still and Montanez dropped helplessly on the stool In his corner, eyes glassed over and legs turned to rubher. Montanez weighs 1444 and at least 60 of it must he heart Maybe some other man lias made a gamer stand In Madison Squate Garden than I'-slro made in the fourth round last main but if so thia deputy was not among those fortunate enoalfli to see It In those brief three minutes In which he hardly threw a punch Montanez, ramnietl down the throats of everybody the sly rumor that he is what the leather slingers call a ■’Geezer’—A guy with no guts Th* Hur rlcane was roaring and ripping and early in the round Aimstrong drove Montanez to the ropes That short, sharp snort that he blows whe nhe’s warmed up and goln’ *o town came out of Armstrong s ■ nose. A Jolting left knocked Monteaneg’ head due east and a right sent it hack w«u. Then she Hurricane really struck -rights and lefts bounced off Montanez head and slowly with a kind of sick look on his fare, he went down Into the ropes He was too far gone to have sense rnouch to take a count of nine and rest His fighting heart told him to get up and up he came, unable to lift hie arms Ko he just stod there and took I' for a minute and s<s seconds Armstrong's right smashe dlnto hl* chin and smashed again The left land>d like * trip hammer on the right side of Mon tanez’ face and sent the blood un In a crimson fountain. Down Montanez went again In a tangle of ropes and resin For two, three four, five, si* seconds he pawr-d helplessly at the canvas with his glove* *nd then, as l» 167 Incredible witnesses are prepared to swear, he got up again Wham. slam. wham, slam* The Hurricane blew aagin Montanez, unable to get his arms up to punch or defend himself. Just < lamped his teeth tight down on hi* rubber mouthpiece and took it until the Ih-II rang And a* he wobbled hi* blody, uncertain way cross the ring to his corner the wild roar of the crowd saluted him as a dead game guy To all practical purposes that round was the fight. Montanez came out throwing punches In the fifth but he never recovered from that heating. In the eight round I should hit them " Alice plan* to defend her title* in the east this year, but frankly admits that she doean I think it will be murh fun. Without bragging she doesn't think women* tenni* any too strong right now. and feel* that she will have a rather easy time winning Kbe think* the men's tournament will be dull. too. with Welby Van Horn aa the only youniter with a <han<e to give It some life
