N. Y. BOXING RULERS DOING STRANGE THINGS Promoter O'Rourke Suspended As Result of Weighing-ln Fuss NEW YORK, Jul y 28,-Tom O’Rourke, former member of the New York Boxing Commission and now matchmaker of the fight club at the Polo Grounds, has been given permission to frost his heels for an Indefinite period. O'Rourke was suspended, from the rights and privileges of his position as matchmaker when the commission Friday heard the details of his bout with a commission member Thursday afternoon during the weighing in of Eugene Criqui and Johnny Dundee. Cripui’s manager, Robert Eudeline, wished to test the scales because of the sly work that marked the secret weighing of Benny Leonard and Lew Tendler a few days previous. The commission representative refused to permit the test until O’Rouike gently but firmly bounced the dignitary on his dignity and bade Eudeline go ahead with the test.

You Can ‘Over-Golf,’ So Watch Your Step —By Mike Brady 7 Western Open Champion YY/ HILE golf is not a game of violent physical exertion, there ** is a steady drain upon the stamina which ought to be recognized by players young and old, especially those getting fairly well along in years. We know from reports of the senior golfers’ annual tournament at Apawamis that golf has done wonders, physically, for a large body of men. Many of those who take part in this annual affair readily admit that golf has done a large part in keeping them physically fit and healthy. And some of these men are 80 or more. But some at times forget there is such a thing as overdoing it, just as recently did an old friend of mine, a dentist, now in his sixty-ninth year. He undertook to play thirty-six holes of golf one day and after that to do a lot of work about his gar- fIP £?. Mk den and the consequence was that he was almost gjattviJlfe “played out.” In fact he suffered more of a reverse from this over-strenuosity than in anything he had done for many years. brady The younger men hardly know when they are tired, or some of them don’t. The idea of playing fifty-four holes or more in a day, as some of them do with surprising- frequency, as much for the sake of boasting about it as anything else, will do them no good and may do some harm, besides taking the edge off their appetite for the game. A man can over-golf just as he can over-eat, and he might just as well realize, moreover, that what is food for o#e in the matter of exercise may be poison for another, just as in eating.

Then regain standing position in the manner described yesterday. This is technically known as the “face-submerged pushoff,” and It is well to practice It until it comes as naturally to you as walking. When the face-submerged pushoff is correctly combined with leg and arm matlon, you will be swimming. The stroke which comes most naturally to the majority of beginners is the elementary crawl, also known as the “dog paddle.” To achieve the

of you, palm down, and the left arm down and toward the rear. Maine Distance Apart Bend youi body slightly forward from the waist and start an alternating paddle motion with the arms, always keeping them the same distance apart. ■ You will notice from this motion that when swimming one arm always will be under water while the other is in the air. The one which is under water gives you your pro polling power and should be j riled down and under forcibly. The otjier reaches slowly and steadily forward with a slight circling motion, forearm near the surface of the water. When this arm motion is combined with the face-submerged pushoff and the leg kick described above, you will be swimming the eleipentary crawl. Advice on Strokes Try ft, but I advise that you begin with only four or five strokes before regaining standing position. Practice on this stroke until you are its master. If you try to rush progress at this point you merely will learn many things which you will later have to unlearn. The elementary crawl, properly mastered, will give you a swimming foundation upon which you later can build other strokes; without it, you are most apt to copy Incorrectly correct swimming of those about you. You must feel at home in the water before you can become proficient, and you will when you can swim the elementary crawl. Next: Swimming on your back.
To regain standing position, bring knees up -toward chest and at the same time bend head and shoulders forward, finishing with chin . touching knees. Quickly "scoop" with both hands, palms forward and hands moving forward and up in circular motion deep under water.

CLOD SYYEEPS ALL RIVALS ASIDE ON WESTERNJOURNEY Huggins Team Wins-16 Out of 22 Games—Giants Holding to Lead, By HENRY FARRELL United Sports Editor NEW YORK, July 28.—After their second trip of the season, a rampage through enemy territory that swept everything before them, the New York Yankees are back home with the American League pennant virtually and practically cinched. There are chances, of course, that the*fourteen-game lead now held by the Yankees might be swept away, but the chances are very remote. The opposition Is none too formidable and the Yanks are so strong that they have been sweeping everything ■" way in front of them without their full strength. Record of Cubs Recalled Playing by far the best ball in the major leagues, the Yanks went through the West and grabbed sixteen out of twenty-two games. They have a chance to equal, or at least come close, to the great record of the Chicago Cubs, who won 116 out Os their 154 games In 1906. Back home for a long stay the Yanks should gain more ground. The athletes of Miller Huggins are too sound-minded this year to loaf on their lead, and when the cripples on the squad get back Into the game they should play even better ball. Getting back more on their stride the Giants are about holding their own In the National League, and are maintaining a slight advantage over Cincinnati Reds and the Pittaburgh Pirates. Where Red Hopes Res* The chances of the Reds depend entirely on Luque, Donohue and Rlxey, and Manager Moran admits If anything happens to his trio of star pitchers the chances will be blown. The Pirates are back on their feet and if the Reds falter, McKechnis’s team may take up the fight against the Giants. The Giants will be a better ball club when Dave Bancroft gets back Into the game. The star shortstop Is a power on the defense. He Is the brains of the whole team.
