SHORT time ago it was announced that Jimmy Foxx, famous home run hitter, was parading around in dude clothes over in Philly awarding prizes at a swanky horse show and this news evidently stirred up some envy in the ranks of other well-known diamond stars. At any rate, Lou Gehrig, New York Yankee slugger, has been discovered as a dog fancier. Fancy that! The rivals for the honor of being the world's most valuable first sacker, Foxx and Gehrig, have gone in for bangtails and hounds on the side. Perhaps these heroes have given up hope of catching lhe Big Buy, Babe Ruth, in the gate attraction league and have decided to outdo him in the high hat circuit —his weak spot. Both Jimmy and Lou have hit long home runs and many of the same, but always they hear about a Ruthian home mn that soared higher and farther. Anyway, here’s a New York World-Telegram story on Gehrig and his dogs: “It seems that Lou has transferred his attentions to three dogs, which he has at home in New Rochelle. The slugger says he had one of his happiest moments when his German shepherd took a prize in the Westminster show' at the Garden recently. “The incident caused consternation among Yankee rooters. The fans feared that Gehrig would pull a Gene Tunney. The alarmists pictured him quitting the diamond for the show ring. They had a nightmare of Lou wearing a monocle among the blue bloods and delivering lectures on dog biscuits to the boys at Yale. “Gehrig denied any intention of seriously taking up dog breeding. ‘You see,’ said Lou, ‘I get plenty of G's from the Colonel for hitting a baseball. I got one thin sawbuck when my dog won that prize. Ask me another.’ “Lou couldn't figure why there should be so much ado over a ballplayer exhibiting a dog. For that matter,’ he said, if we have dogs in Madison Square Garden, I don't see why we can't have them in the Stadium.’ ” That may be a good idea for Ed Barrow to work on. Umpires would fit in the picture as they have been known to bark very well. Competition might be held. A fine start could be made with Gehrig's shepherds, Colonel Jake Ruppert's St. Bernards and Babe Ruth's -hot dog3. a a a a a a MIDGET IS ONE OF GREATS OF RING IT is said the fastest left jab in boxing belongs to Midget Wolgast of Philadelphia, New York state commission flyweight champion. The Midget performed in Indianapolis, at Ft. Harrison, a couple of years ago and made the fans pop-eyed as he threw gloves and dazzled his opponents. He's lightning fast. Yet Wolgast. born Joseph Loscalzo, a really great scrapper for his poundage, is probably the least known, and the most unbaliyhooed champ in the cauliflower business. “I’ll tell you why,” said Jimmy Coster, his manager. “There sre no good flyweights in New York. There is none in Philadelphia, except Midget. Chicago has none. There just aren’t any anyw'here, except on the Pacific coast.” “I’ve made four trips to the coast,” said Midget. “I've beaten all of their good boys, including Speedy Dado, Young Tommy and the rest. I knocked out Dado. Young Pancho ran out on me.” “Except on the coast, there isn't a big city with a good flyweight match for him,” continued Coster. “Consequently, we have to move through the smaller cities, meeting home-town youngsters. We don’t get any fat purses, But Wolgast gets action, which is the main thing And he beats 'em all.” This mite of the ring is 22 and can make 112 pounds without the slightest difficulty. He has engaged in something over two hundred professional fights, but never in an amateur bout, in six years of ring campaigning. He has been beaten twice, by Newsboy Brown in 1929, and Phil Tobias, in 1930. Since the loss to Tobias, he has beaten him four times. Likewise, the score with Brown has been evened. The Midget may fight Jackie Brown of England late in March at Madison Square Garden, New York. Brown is the recognized N. B. A. flyweight champion. Perhaps after he beats Brown, the Midget will get the recognition he merits. a a a a a a WILLIAM JONES, FORMERLY OF OLD TENNESSEE C GORILLA JONES, the Akron (OJ Negro, who is the recognized NaJ tional Boxing Association American middleweight boxing champion, is the former William Jones of down Memphis w r ay. He is a well set-up pugilist and there is no denying his punch. The Gorilla will try to demonstrate to Hoosier fans exactly w'hy he carries top rating when he trades gloves with Rosy Baker at Tomlinson hall tonight. Jones says he plans to get out of the punching sport in anoiher year or so, “or before I absorb too much punishment and start walking on my heels. “It's a great game when you are young and winning,” the Gorilla said, “but I have seen too many of the boys stay at it too long and get their faces knocked out of shape and their heads battered until they are made unfit to follow any line of work in later life.” Jones wants to take on a few challengers here and there and then top off his career in title bouts with Ben Jeby, New York, the Empire state middleweight champ, and with Marcel Thil, of France, who is the N. B. A. world champ. “After that strenuous campaign I think I will have enough to retire on and enter business, I hope,’’ concluded Jones. The Gorilla was born in Memphis, Tenn., on May 12, 1907. a a a a a a Batting slumps are caused by the strain of too many double-headers and the heat, according to Babe Herman. Well, that makes two alibis fixed up by the Babe to spring if the jinx gets him down with the Chicago Cubs this year. a a a a a a One of Babe Ruth's arguments during his early controversy over wages with the Yankees was that he might retire from the diamond and continue to collect big money playing golf exhibitions. This line of reasoning was knocked out the other day when Ruth was defeated in an amateur golf tourney in Florida by an opponent well along in his 60’s.

EARLHAM’S Quakers justly are proud of that twenty-one-game winning streak, but' they’re still short by sixteen of the remarkable thirty-seven-game string turned in by Wabash “way back when.” During the 1907-08 campaign, the Little Giants won twenty-four scheduled games without a setback. Previous victories in 1906-07. and later wins in 1908-09 boosted the Scarlet total to thirty-seven before Notre Dame checked the string. Wabash won sixteen in a row in 1905-06, but Purdue halted this run with a 28 to 27 win. the only loss suffered by the Scarlet in that campaign. During the 1906-07 season Wabash lost only two games—both to Cra\tfordsville high school. Two of the warriors who played with that high school team, and also were members of the Notre Dame team which halted the great Wabash record, were Pete Vaughan, present Wabash coach, and Dud Maloney. Ralph Jones coached the Little Giants in those record-making days. Later he went to Purdue, and now he coaches the Chicago Bears, professional football team. One of Jones’ best pupils was Piggy Lambert, now Purdue coach, who passed on Jones’ mastery to Blair Gulion. Earlham coach. Which should mean something.

American Legion, which is supervising the event, is confident all bouts will be disposed of Thursday and the medals will be awarded winners and runners -up j after the last I match of the ! night. Golden glove medals will go to the eight champs and silver to the runners-up.
Tom Jordan, chairman of the legion boxing committee, and one of the original Golden Gloves boosters of Indianapolis, says interest is widespread in the final night's entertainment and a capacity crowd is predicted. All bouts will be scheduled for three two-minute rounds to a decision. There will be no draws. The survivors of the battles will be sent to Chicago, with expenses paid, to compete in the Tournament of Champions at Chicago stadium Feb. 27 and 28 and March 1 under the auspices of the Chicago Tribune.

Boxers must make the same weight class that they made last week or they will be ruled out. Several fighters left the hall last Thursday night not knowing they were booked for more action the same evening.
