The Sam Mark's athletes are leading the Eastern pro league race Just at present, and every team in the circuit is out to pull it off the high horse, and none more so than this Coats team, which has trailed the Fall River eleven in all their games so far thin season. The State Soccer Association decided at Its meeting last night to conduct a Junior Cup competition this Spring, so all the boys can get ready for It about the middle of March.

il seats were sold before the door were opened and after almost 9000 fans hid streamed past the doors, admittance refused to thousands of expectant enthusiasts. It was one ot the largest crowds that ever saw a bout In Mechanic's Hall, being surpassed only by Young Muggsy-Kloby bout a few years ago- Todd Lacked a Punch As was expected. Malone was too emart for the British titleholder, and he hit too hard. Todd proved himself be a wonderful defensive boxer, but he lacked a punch. Malone.

suffering 'rom a cold, entered the ting as cock as usual. Just before the boxers walked to the center of the ring for Instructions from referee Jack Sheehan, Jock was asked how his cold was. It's all right." piped Jock. "Anyway, It's I the only one I've got. so it'll have to do," And the remark typified the attitude i of the bewildering St Paul lad through- out the 10 rounds.

He opened the first round by driving straight right leads to Todd's stomach and ribs and whipping I his left to the same place. After taking wveral of Roland's jabs, he utterly dis- regarded Todd's offensive and only tried to get inside the visitor's wonderful de- fenae. And he did, but in return ne took some prettv straight left counters and hooks and occasionally a light right jppercut. Malone won every round except the first which was even, and the fifth, which, while pretty evenly contested, might have been given to Todd. In all the other sessions Jock drove the sway- in, rolling Britisher all over the ring, sometimes devoting all his energy to a iody attack and apain varying the on- i slaught with left jabs and hard crosses to th?

PARIS, Jan 19 The boxer's kiss has been placed under the ban. For some time it has been the fashion for two fighters to exchange kisses one on each cheek at the conclusion of a ring battle, but the French Boxing Federation has decided that for hygienic reasons the practice must go, and has issued an official decree ordering its abolition. Originating in Southern France, the custom gradually spread to all French rings until it threatened to become a mania even among the professional fighters.

line. Incidentally, Jack Schworer Is an excellent Judge of dogs. For fox hunting he believes in the dog with the short, compact back, coarse hair and well-padded feet for the rough New England going. The need of well-pad ded feet was brought home when Jack showed us two of his dogs that hao broken out one night this week ant run a fox until dawn. The pads wen so worn off their feet that the dogs-could hardly walk and they will be no use in hunting until snow falls when the rocks and brambles of Oai Hill are covered.

After breeding the same strain fo-50 years, his dogs seem to have ap canny knowledge of the man and hi: whereabouts. In his 60 years of huntint he has never lost a dog. He can leave them on the trail in any part of the State and know that they will return home. Jack says, "The dogs seem to know the smell of the gas in my car and trail me often all the way home from The greatest hunter among the dogs in the pack at the present time is his rival safe, it was not a one-sided contest, by any means. Todd was always ready with a counter, but the absence of leverage behind the blows rendered them almost negative.

It is no secret that Malone tried hard for a knockout during the early rounds. Me banged his antagonist with terrific rghts to the stomach and ribs, but after the fourth round he changed his tactics and concentrated upon outpointing his man. And he did it in masterly fashion. suddenly he will turn and criss-cross-back like a broken field runner. Running with the wind the scent ts faint sometimes the dogs are outwitted, soni' -times not.

Reynard takes no chances anyway, and doubles back again int the wind and again returns. If the hunters are out of sight and the dogs appear to be lost, Reynard goes to his hole. If he is hard pressed with the dogs on his trail and thev. hunters near, he again doubles his- tracks He Is getting tired, the bark of th--dogs grows Ipuder, a hunter is seen standing against a tree, a second is behind a stone wall. Reynard is trapped; it's a race between -the hunters now and the dogs.

A shot is fired, the dogs close in, Reynard is no more. Sounds easy. But for the one fox that Is caught, 100 outwit dogs ami hunters and get away. But one fox has been shot by any of Jack Schworer's party so far this year, and that was shot by his son. Bill.

The dogs find plenty of trails to follow, but finding a fox at the end of the trail Is almost like finding a pot of gold at the rainbow's end. Sly Reynard has as many tricks as there at shots in the hunters' guns and Old Jack Schworer says wouldn't be surprised if he has fired a'! many shots In his life as were fired the entire Spanish War. killed his first fox and today at the age of 68, his eye is as keen as It was 50 years ago and his legs are seemingly as strong, for this Intrepid fox hunt-ter thinks nothing of walking 25 miles a day even now in pursuit of sly Reynard. If there Is one thing Jack had ratjler do than hunt the fox himself, it Is to teach thhe younger generation the art of outwitting this slyest of all animals. Neither meals, nor sleep nor business can be so urgent, as to prevent Jack from picking up his shot gun, loosing his hounds and starting on the trial with a friend.

Old Jack takes great delight In telling of the hundreds of fox hunters he has taught in the rudiments of this branch of hunting.

F.

Sailor, secretary of the Minnesota Boxing Commission, in a report to the Interim Committee of the Legislature. Sailor said that either the high tax must go or boxing will be abandoned by the promoters. He pointed out that the 5 percent tax collected In Wisconsin brings a greater revenue in that State, because it results in more fights. "The 10 percent out of the income of any business and you Just about take all the profits," declared Sailor. "The high tax has been the direct cause of the failure of the St Paul and Minneapolis boxing clubs to use their full quota of 12 shows a year." Sailor will teave tonight for Louisville, to attend a meeting of the National Boxing Association.

He will propose at the gathering that all State commissions join in fixing a "reasonable" maximum percentage to be iald by boxing clubs for headline attractions.

As a rule fox hunters are a sorry looking crowd, with all shooting Jackets, woodsmen's boots, corduroy trousers and golf caps that have not been on the links for years.

And how. is Reynard caught? At the first bark of the dogs the fox knows he is being pursued and nine out of ten times i will head into the wind, slowly, leaving a scent.

A bit of down tossed into the air shows the direction of the wind, a glance at the countryside shows the most likely places for holes, and then Jack is ready to head for the fox.

The dogs may go one way and Jack another, but sooner or later the fox and Jack meet. The hundres who know Jack say there isn't a surer shot or better hunter in New England.

Muchison, who holds the National 100 and 220-yard dash titles and also possesses world's Indoor records at 60 and 300 yards, won the Wllco sprint series a year ago and was the outstanding star In the organization's outdoor carnival last September. Judging from his remarkable exhibition of speed in making a clean sweep of the 811k A. A.

sprints last Wednesday night, the Newark Athletic Club flyer is close to top form. "Boots" Lever, former Pennsylvania track captain, and Harry F. V. Edward, formerly English sprint champion, are likely to be among Muchison's rivals in the Wllco events, which call for trials at 50 and 150 yards, with the first two in each of these races meeting In a final at 100 yards. BASKET-BALL PLAY NO.

21 Tip-Off Formation When Your Center Is Out Jumped The regular formation with both for-vvards In their respective scoring areas, is too weak defensively to be retained when your opponents are controlling the tip-off. Under these circumstances signal plays throwing four men on attack in a rapid descent on your two guards are certain to be worked successfully against you. Whenever, therefore, the opponents are able to control the center ball with certainty, it Is advisable to pull your two forwards out of regular position with a view to strengthening the defense by a stronger formation at lineup.
