Little Henry
admit that Henry Armstrong can do plenty of fighting. And ‘Henry, who still has the welterweight title because he beat Garcia in New York recently, will admit that Garcia is a real scrapper.
But last night, during the champ’s surprise visit to Indianapolis, he revealed that he had several other talents, one in particular—that of speaking before an audience. The knack of speaking came in very handy when he was asked to talk before the El Amigo Club. After he had had his say, his hosts had theirs. Among the questions they asked him was when was he going to fight next. Armstrong said that he would fight Baby Arizmendi in January on the West Coast. Then what? He expects to make a tour of South America after that January fight.
That Bolo Punch
which Garcia landed so squarely in the 12th round of their Madison Square Garden title bout, is nothing more than a modern version of a “roundhouse hook,” Armstrong said. He described it as an uppercut with a hook. He said his fight with Lou Ambers was probably the toughest of his career, chiefly because of his sore lip. He annexed the lightweight title in that bout. Armstrong and his manager, Eddie Meade, who accompanied him here, left early today for Hot Springs, Ark., for a week’s rest. From there they expect to go to the champion’s home in Los Angeles for Christmas. His most recent bout was at Cleveland this week where he knocked out Al Manfredo.
Tony Has Trouble In Thomas Bout
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 8 (U. P.).—Tony Galento, Orange, N. J., heavyweight and chief challenger of Champion Joe Louis, said his knockout victory last night over Otis Thomas, Chicago Negro, was proof enough of his right to meet Louis in a title match. Galento stopped Thomas with a left hook to the solar plexus in 1 minute and 35 seconds of the ninth round of a scheduled 12-round bout. He scored a knockdown in the third round, then nearly lost the match in the eighth because of low blows. Referee Walter Heisner stopped the bout and threatened to give the decision to Thomas. He permitted it to resume, however, when Thomas said he had not been injured and would prefer to continue. Until the knockout the fight was
fairly even. Galento weighed 227, Thomas, a8, 208,

Carnegie Tech Mentor Says
O’Brien May
Mr. Bill Kern of Carnegie Tech very much honored, but he'd feel a weren't for those Texas Christians. It seems that Mr. Kern and Tech have an appointment with - the Christians in the New Orleans Sugar Bowl on Jan. 2 and being a practical young man he is just wondering if he should be taking any bows for his team just yet. “They tell me they are plenty tough,” sighed Mr. Kern, “that they don’t know even their own strength.” A bystander, more innocent than discreet, admitted he had heard Mr. Dutch Meyer, coach, of the Christians, say these very same words. “Meyer says the Christians have not been extended all year and that he honestly doesn’t know how good they are.” Players Chose T. C. U. “Well, I didn’t pick the Christians,” smiled Mr. Kern, “the players did. ' They said all aiong that was the team they wanted to meet.” Mr. Kern's prestige as an up and coming big time coach took on added glamoyr this year when his youths beat Pittsburgh and Holy Cross and gave Notre Dame better than a dead even fight until Referee Johnny Gettchel pulled that curious decision. Everybody around town was asking Mr. Kern about that curious decision yesterday. You may recall the details. The Tech quarterback asked the referee what down it was. The refere said it was the third down. Actually it was the fourth. So after Tech had run one play the referee took the ball and gave it to Notre Dame on Tech’s 46-yard | line. From this point the Irish marched to a touchdown in three plays, the only touchdown in the game. They had made only one first down up to this time. Mr. Kern doesn’t like to talk about the decision. If he has any feelings about it he manages to conceal them admirably. “We tried to forget all about it after the game,”

said he was very much obliged and while lot more like celebrating if it
he says, “and we wish everybody else would. People are always coming up to us and saying we would have had a tie at least if it hadn't been for the decision. How can
they say that? When the Irish did get the ball they scored, dian’t they? And even if we had had a chance to kick, they might aave scored from farther back just the same.” : Young as he is, Mr. Kern is intelligent enough to take victory and defeat in stride. If he cared to he could point out Tech had five soph= omores in the game when the decision went against them, that they proceeded to lose all their poise, and that Notre Dame’s touchdown - grew out of the youngsters’ steaming fury; but. Mr. Kern isn’t built that way. As further evidence of the young man’s sportsmanship and foovball philosophy, it should be pointed out that this same Gettchel is going to be one of the officials in the Sugar Bowl game—and that he was invited to officiate by the Tech coach himself. Asked why, he says: “Johnny's a good official. He just booted one that day. All the good ones do that once in a while.” As far as Tech is concerned, Mr, Kern’s most signal triumph of the year was over Pittsburgh. Tech and Pittsburgh are neighborhood rivals, “Thinking out loud,” mused Mr, Kern, “I have a notion our best ‘chance to beat the Christians is through the air.” : He was reminded that in Davey O’Brien the Christians apparently have the last, ultimate syllable in forward passers. Mr. Kern knew all about Davey but he has hopes that Tech ends will rush himsharder than he has been
rushed all year, and that this would
