Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—A couple of prize fighters broke into the i-port pages on the same day out in Akron, 0.. not so many hours ago. One was K. O. Christner, the other was Bob Martin. Gay headlines raced across the peges shouting of the gallant fight old Kayo had made against jack Sharkey. Buried down in the pages almost shrinking and cowering under a bold face caption appeared another story telling of the return of 50b Martin to the town he used to call his home. nan Martin had come back looking for work, a father of five children, physically battered and financially flat. There was something ironical in the twist of fate that sent the former A. E. F. champion, “the mightiest fighting man in the army,” a Pershing had called him v —back to Akron at precisely, the same moment the town was roekIng with hooplas for old Kayo. * n * AT 34. MARTIN. A FORTUNE OF 4250,000 SQUANDERED. A HEAD THAT | RTNGS CONSTANTLY WITH THE BUZZ OF SWISHING OLOVES. IS PITIFULLY * THROUGH. . . . "I'M STILL STRONG. ? I WANT NO CHARITY. I CAN DO A * FULL DAYS WORK. . . . I'VE JUST ” GOT TO KEEP GOING." a tt u AT 34, old Keyo, fighting his first year as professional, finds himself elevated to undreamed-of prominence, with match makers from New York to San Francisco bidding for his services, a business a;’ent who talks glibly of “G’s” and roundtrip tickets with drawing rooms. mm* Life is like that in the prize ring. It’s a strange racket. Overnight, nonentities become spectacular figures, persons of w ealth, pets of society and in some instances genuine public idols. And just as quickly the glamor fades, the scenes shift, the idolatry dies and—a Bob Martin comes back home looking for a day laborer's job. tt it it TIMMY BRONSON was Martin’s J sponsor. He saw him fighting in the soldier bouts in Paris and decided he had the makings of a firstrate heavy. He could have picked Gene Tunney who was fighting in the same rings at the time, but he deemed Martin a prospect. Martin wts a stiff hitter with his right hand and Tunney wasn’t, and this influenced the Bronson decision. ’ * * * Pat Martin never progressed beyond the second rate state. He lacked resourcefulness and initiative in action. He was mainly a mechanical fighter. His chief reliance was a right hand with which, if he landed squarely, he ’ could drop a man. I think it was the best right hand I ever saw on a heavyweight. One of his drawjacks was that he had nothing to back it up with. nun HE WAS LIKE A BASEBALL PITCHER S DEPENDING SOLELY ON A FAST BALL. I WHEN RE FOUND A MAN HE COULD HIT WITH HIS RIGHT HE WAS A CER-' TAIN WINNER. OTHERWISE HE WAS USUALLY BEATEN. A CHANGE OF PACE WOULD HAVE MADE A FINE FIGHTER OF HIM.

Garden Prospers Under Assistant of Late Rickard By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—The passing of a man as celebrated in the world of sport as Tex Rickard Inevitably was followed by the assertions of many that no one could fill his shoes. The names of various possible successors to the late promoter were ba:idied about, with only a few expressing confidence in the man whom Rickard himself had named as his assistant in the somewhat complicated business of managing Madison Square Garden. Today we have the unexpected situation wherein Colonel John S. Hammond, general manager of New York City’s sports arena, is operating the garden at a profit which exceeds the most optimistic ezt: nates of the directors when Tex was in office. The garden is showing a profit for the month of January which exceeds by SBO,OOO the profits of January, 1928, when Rickard, apparently in the prime of health, was in full control.

One of the easiestgoing players in the game, Southworth has been placed in one of the toughest spots in baseball. As if managing the Cardinals isn’t enough, Southworth will make a bid for the regular right field berth. Playing regularly at Rochester last season, he batted .361. Southworth is 34 and has had nine years of major league experience. Two rookies will be shoved into regular roles in the Cardinal infield. Frankie Frisch will be shifted to third and Carey Selph, who batted .312 and fielded .971 for Houston, Texas League champions, will be placed at second. Along side of him will be Charley Gelbert, the 22-year-old phenom who played for Rochester. He batted .340 and fielded .936. Fred Haney, who batted .334 for Indianapolis, has been brought back to the majors as a utility infielder. He may be used at third if Selph fails at second and it is necessary to shift Frisch back to that bag. The Cardinals have three new pitchers, Herman Bell, Bill Hallahan and Harold Elliott. Bell and Hallafian have had trials with the Cards before. Bell was recalled from Rochester. Clarence Jonnard has been called back from Houston and Gus Mancuso has been recalled from Minneapolis.
