B y Eddie Ash Coast Thinks Well of Young Fred Fearv a a m Roller Veteran Receives Home-Town Boost nun Sport Shorts Picked Fp Here and There
A 20-YEAR-OLD knuckle duster weighing 210 when in fighting trim. . who still holds to the lofty ideals of his amateur standing, has turned to the professional boxing army, and if he continues to ciing to his simon-pure aggressiveness the followers of the ring sport may see on< of the “flghtingest” lads in the recent history of the scrambled-ear racket. The youth is Fred Foary of Stockton. Cal. He invaded the east last spring and flattened all opponents in the National A. A. U. tourney and walk’d of! with the amateur heavyweight crown. After this feat the coast kid was besieged by offers from promoters to turn pro. Freddie however, would have nothing to do with the professionals. H r ' desired to continue in school and then later purchase a farm. Asa result he turned down several lucrative offers for a while. Promoters, however, were undaunted. They kept hammering at Fred's door, until a short time ago the boxer weakened and signed under the wing of Bill Hunefeld, Pacific coast promoter, and was paid $1,500 as a bonus. One of Peary’s statements when he turned pro shows that the lad isn’t acquainted with the trade tricks of the paid pugilists. Right off the bat the boy made the foilow’ing revolutionary remark: "I absolutely will not stand for a set-up opponent. I want to meet someone who will give mr a stiff battle, as I might as well learn at the very beginning whether I can hold my own in professional company.” Fred has been quite a fighter in the amateur circles. During his three years as an amateur he had about forty bouts, winning practically all of them by knockouts in one or two rounds. a a a ana MERIDEN TAKES NOTE OF OUR TED LEWIS \ N article appearing in the Meriden ‘Conn.) Journal recently, written j. V by Sam Cohen, will interest many Hoosicr roller polo followers, it follows: “Old-time roller polo fans who undoubtedy remember the brilliant Ted Lewis, famous rush of other days, will be surprised to learn the great, star still is banging them around in great style although he has crossed the half-century mark in age. “This marvel of the game scored four goals at second rush for Indianapolis in a recent league contest out in the Hoosier state. Lewis, brother of Harry Lewis of Meriden and a son of Fred H. Lewis, former Meriden grocer who has passed on, was one of the best roller polo players turned out by Meriden. “Lewis learned the game and developed promising form as a player in the Meriden city league starting about 1895. On that team he had for mates such strong performers as Barney Reilly, Gene Hart, James O’Donnell, Otto Schiffer and others. “Later, Lewis branched out into the roller polo minor leagues of the day as a teammate with Schiffer and both worked up into the big league with Hartford. Schiffer went to New Britain later, but Lewis stayed with Hartford for a number of years. When the league disbanded Lew'is went west to Muncie, Ind., and teamed with Gene Hart in 1904. They were outstanding stars as rushes. “After a few' years in the western loop. Hart and Lewis returned east and played together with Lowell. After a few years with the Lowell leaguers Lewis went back to Indiana to make his home. “In 1900 Lewis turned down a chance to play with a team of exhibition players in England and Paris. The squad engaged in exhibitions j for four months, playing at Crystal Palace in London and at the World's | fair in Paris." a a a tt tt a BITS OF CHATTER ON SEVERAL SUBJECTS JIMMY THOMPSON of Colorado Springs is one of the longest drivers j of all golf pros, but his poor approaching prevents his reaching first I base in the big time. McDonald Smith never brings more than fourteen j clubs to a golf tournament, but Harry Cooper needs twenty-five. Southern California’s 1922 football team never was behind in any of its games. Nat Holman, one of the greatest basketball players of all time and now coach at City college of New York, has his players take a nap before a game. Wrestling, even the second rate shows, outdraws all other sports in Boston. Sir Malcolm Campbell is so well sheltered' in the cockpit of his Bluebird that ho can smoko a cigaret traveling at a speed of 250 miles an hour. Wahoo Sam Crawford, old time slugger of the Detroit Tigers, now lives at Pico, Cal., and Wahoo Sant’s chief interest in life is bicycling. When Paul Runyan, one of the better golf pros, needs to sink a long putt he always turns toward the gallery and gazes at his wife for three or four minutes. Says it gives him inspiration. tt tt a a tt b NEW YORK BEASTLY (TTY, THINKS WATTIE SEAMAN WATSON, the British fighter who upset the dope by trouncing Fidel La Barba, described New York as “a bloomin' zoo.” It has been disclosed Watson w-on on his merits and that La Barba trained properly for the scrap and never left his punch in the speakeasies as was rumored. It was just a case of the underrated English featherw'eight being the better man that night. The Seaman can dictate his own terms now after the way the New York "experts” belittled his skill before he sent La Barba into retirement. "Zoo” is right—with the wiseacres in the cages and Watson free as air. a tt tt a tt a SONG AND DANC E FIVE DISCOVERED THE pre-game ritual of the Duquesne university basketball team of Pittsburgh is a song and dance performance by the Negro trainer, Brue Jackson. Like Jolly Jack of Jacksonville, Jackson sings and tapsteps before the eyes of the athletes and this is supposed to rest their nerves and spur them on to victory. The act goes on for about ten minutes in the dressing room before each tilt. Brue is smart, too. If the Dukes lose he explains his throat was sore and his “puppies” tired, throwing him off key and the players off stride. tt tt tt a tt tt Jim Bottomley, the first sacker, says: “I don’t guess I’ll be in baseball in 1933 if the Cincy Reds don’t pay me what I want.” Guess again Jim and keep on guessing and try to guess where another job can be found. tt tt tt tt u tt Rather fortunate, Jimmy Phelan, grid coach. After shopping for another job and failing to make connections, he fell back on a three-year contract with the University of Washington at SIO,OOO a year—if he gets it. That’s what was worrying him in the first place and started him job hunting. a a a a a a The two San Francisco teams of the Pacific Coast League have a headache. After announcing a reduction in admission price as a means of luring customers, they learn the Tanforan race track at "San Fran” plans to have a free gate every day at a meet conflicting with the first month of Coast League baseball. The turfmen figure to make their profit on the fans who bet on the bangtails and guess wrong.

Sir Malcolm Pays SIOO,OOO for Assault on Auto Speed Record
BY HENRY M’CLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.. Feb. 6. —One hundred thousand dollars is the price Sir Malcolm Campbell, British racing driver, will pay for the privilege of risking his neck on the wave-packed sands of Daytona Beach.

MAYBE Cliff Wells really means’ it this year. Cliff is the little battle and cage man from Logansport. He's produced several outstanding quintets at the Berry school in the last few' seasons, but the only championship he ever wmn came during his coaching at Bloomington several years back, and Logansport fans are clamoring for a title of their ow r n. Victories over Muncie and Martinsville last Friday and Saturday indicate Wells is out to fulfill Logansport's demands. Muncie, you will remember, flattened Everett Case's Anderson Indians just a week previously, w'hile Martinsville, w r ho had beaten Logareport once this year, did a very neat job of tagging Bedford on the jaw last Friday night.

His successor, first baseman Bill Terry was present, as were most of the owners and managers in the two major circuits, and many players. More than 600 persons attended. McGraw said, in part: “I served under three presidents of the New York Giants and I want to make it clear that I was treated well by all of them. I have heard talk there was friction between myself and
for the honor of Sir. Malcolm and the Union Jack. It was Sir Malcolm who put up the check of many, many thousands for the Bluebird's new 2,600-horse power insides, who footed the bill for the transportation of the car and its four mechanics to this country, and who, when the runs are completed, will see that everybody gets home again. It isn’t a pleasant thought, but just what one of his runs would cost him should the Bluebird swerve off course and injure a spectator or spectators would depend on what the injured parties collected. For Sir Malcolm, an insurance broker himself, could get no liability policy.

Vincennes dropped the Techs at Alicetown last year, but it’s 100 to 1 they won’t repeat this year. Austin Smith, the Marion coach, is a rapid-change artist. He changes his lineup every week—and still the Giants lose. Bloomington and Delphi are entitled to big leather medals as inconsistency kings of the Hoosier prep brigade.

All this is occasioned by the fact Bloomington was humpty-dumptied by Columbus. 40 to 21, and Delphi was knocked oft by Alexandria on Friday night after they had turned in great performances just a week previous.

Bob Carey Sets Mark Hoosier Pilot Shatters All Dirt Track Records to 100 Miles. : By United Press OAKLAND, Cal., Feb. 6.—80 b Carey, young Anderson (Ind.) daredevil and 1932 national speedway champion, today held every national dirt track auto speed record from one to 100 miles. Carey set anew dirt track mark here Sunday when he won the 100mile feature event at Oakland speedway in 59 minutes, 33.9 seconds. He clipped four and onehalf minutes from the former record, which he held. In the qualifying dash, Carey also set anew record when he lapped the track at better than 105 miles | an hour. Taking the lead at the start Sun- | day, Carey led all the way, finishing j a lap and a half ahead of Wilbur jshaw, Indianapolis, who was second. | Ernie Triplett was third and "Wild” j Bill Cummings, fourth. Cummings ! was in second place until forced out | with tire trouble on the ninety--1 fourth lap.
All he could buy was fire insurance. Sir Malcolm’s runs down the beach this year aren't going to be surrounded by the trimmings of past years. Daytona Beach, like Sauk Center and New York, is finding ready money scarce. As Sir Malcoim continued preparations today, the beach was covered with ripples, w'hich made it unfit for racing. No one is alarmed, however, for a beach that is like the rocky road to Dublin in the morning may be smooth as a gold brick salesman by afternoon. A favorable wind and tide are all the beach needs. It is not surface, but the contour, that has Sir Malcolm worried. A storm last December, instead of improving the beach as first reported, made it less favorable for high speed racing by cutting a curve in its old straight-as-a-die-line. The curve, impossible to negotiate at the speed the titled Britisher runs, shortens the racing strip from eleven to nine miles. The measured mile being the middle mile. Sir Malcolm will have but four miles in which to gather speed and four to lose it. This, as he explained, considerably lessens his chances of breaking the mark of 253.9 miles an hour he established last year.
