He spent his freshman year acquainting himself with con-ditions and branched out the Engene Haverlin. following year to rain honor and glory for the Red and Blue.

He was one of the leading players of the St. Francis Pioneers who captured the senior championship in The Junior Eagle baseball tournament In 1926. Gene made his value felt In 1927 when he displayed his real versatility. He engaged in four major sports and did exceptionally well in all. He was a chief asset as outside left In soccer and turned in many creditable performances In high Jumping.

In addition he was a tower of strength at guard on the basketball quintet and proved a dependable, hard-hitting and smart fielding combination nrst baseman and gardener. Soccer was abandoned at the Butler st. school this fall, so that the boy was deprived of addir.fr to his prestige in that activity. However, he is going great guns at forward with the basketball team and looks for the crowning season of his career on the diamond in the spring.

Mid-vood at Kldttr. Ridi at MIOcod. The followers of the activitlet of the Interclub Howling League of Brooklyn were treated to another sat of surprises last evening on the various club alleys of the boro. With the aid of upsets by other clubs and an easy six-game victory over the Mid-wood Masonic Club ptnmen, the bowlers of the Terrace Club of Flatbush strengthened their leadership in the circuit and are at the present writing six games ahead of their nearest rivals, the Ridge Club pinmen. The Ridge Club team, which has been steadily climbing in the league standing to such an extent that it appeared that it might soon overtake Terrace, suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of alley stars from the Knickerbocker Field Club.

The latter organization did exceptionally well in winning four out of six from the Shore rd. pinmen It might even have been worse for Ridge if the traveling team had not won the second game at the Field Club by a margin of one pin. Randle. LirTiton, Wood and Jones, starring for Knickerbocker, were the principal causes of the rout. Dill and Magovern did the best scoring for the defeated Ridge combination.

Knicks Go to Third Place. The victory for Knickerbocker placed the club in third place, nosing out the Invincible bowlers, who could do no better than split even with the members of the Cortelyou Club teams. The pinmen from the latter club, lolling in mid-season form, put up a sterling exhibition both at home and abroad. The home team of the Un-conquerables received a setback, losing the last game of the evening, 856 to 855, and giving the visitors a two-out-of-three victory. Castle and Schauf were the outstanding players for Cortelyou, while Ashmun and Billings were the heavy scorers for Invincible.

The Columbus Council Caseys divided the spoils with the Rotary Bowling Club, each team winning three games. The Knights did their best work in the match played on the Rational Recreational Alleys, coming through in two out of the three games. Haessig and Cadden did the high scoring for the victors at this scene of conflict. Wark turned in an excellent score for the Rotary home team. At the Prospect Park West clubhouse Crozier and Brodwell did muhc to even matters up for Rotary.

The Donegan Council, K. of teams won four out of six from the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce in evenly played contests both at home and abroad. The Terrace pinmen, far outclassing the earnest and hopeful Midwood players, had to extend themselves to make a clean sweep over their opponents. Invincible. I Corltlrou.

But this move was seen In advance and the teammate's guard, instead of being blocked, moved to cover this advancing forward. The next move was for this forward to change direction and take the throw in open territory, dribbling for a shot. How does he make this turn? As his right foot comes down, if he is turning to the left, he pushes and pivots off It. changing his direction more than a right angle. He now circles in toward ie basket at top speed, this turn having freed him from the guard who sought to cover him.

The point that makes this turn successful is for tho forward to make It the instant the guard begins giving ground. That helps to throw the guard off balance.

Godfrey, the present day dark men place over his chest a white board Then for a color effect splash him They point to the record of Godfrey and claim he has met better fighters ar.d beaten them. Paulino has been living up to his reputation of ever ready and ever willing to fight ail challengers. In January he met Pat Lester. Ed Keeley and Quentin Romero-Rojas and turned their pictures as fighting men toward the wall. The Man From Yonkers.

ONCE upon a time Romero was regarded as a fighter of parts. This principally because he had the high-scunding title of champion of South America. While that covers a great distance of land, that South America, still, in the matter of battles of the prize ring It's no greater than the thriving city of Yonkers. And how long is it since we have had a heavyweight champion of the world that hung his hat in Yonkers? When Jack Dempsey tied Firpo, the wild bull of the pampas, outside of the ropes and left him there, Firpo, with his horns shorn, passed on his honors what remained of them to Romero. Romero Like Dead Beef.

ND Romero, taking the frayed privileges and flaunting them in the faces of the fight fans, for a time "bulled" them out of their money. But socn he, too, was laid low. And thus it was that when Paulino hit him on the chin he curled up like a stricken ox and became all but dead beef. Just the same one must admire the woodchopper. He punches hard, he's always in motion and is always trying to cut clown his opponent.

He can as has been proven many times take punch. Heretofore, he has been meeting men much of his own weight, size and strength. To Godfrey he is conceding 25 pounds and 5 inches. This, my hearties, is some handicap. If you dcubt it just try punching a bag weighing 50 pounds after banking at cne that weighs 25.

Godfrey Has Several EORGE GODFREY weighs 225 pounds and fairly towers over Paulino. George stands 6 feet 2 inches. Paulino is 5 feet 9. And this 5 inches in favor of Godfrey when added to 2 inches of reach means an advantage that is hard to overcome. But the man from the Basque country possesses the spirit of a fighter and laughs at these concessions.

He points to the fact that he conceded nearly as much in the way of weight to Harry Wills and that Wills stood over him. And yet he tucked Harry away with a knockout last summer. And Wills, mind you, in the matter of prestige, was like a tiger and Paulino merely a lamb. What Will Rickard Say to the Winner? IN THE matter of records Godfrey has the better, and on the face of the returns he looks like the natural favorite. He lost, 'tis true, with Jack Sharkey, but his one-round knockout of Jim Maloney was impressive.

Now the question is, will Godfrey, with his advantages in weight, height, reach and poundage, with hands the size of hams and pile-driving strength in his arms, be able to put Paulino down for te counts-something that no fighter has accomplished since he has been here? And if winged victory should perch on Godfreys shoulder will Rickard place him in the elimination list? Or, the pods of chance should kind to Paulino will Tex recognize the Spaniard as a contender? ing straight through. That throws the stroke off line. Now that we have discussed the various points about putting it is high time we delved into Just how the putt is stroked. That is the subject tomorrow.

Thi Is how of Zarathustra, the Persian philoso- per. who originated the "superman1 end theory of good and evil. Fred-reich Nietzche, the German philosopher, explained the "superman," and Patrick proceeds to do the same with his "superstar." The Brain's the Thing; According to ratrick.

Thus spake Lester Patrick: "The difference between the super star and other players is from my hand up. Below the neck every action is mechanical. One player may be a little faster, or a great deal faster, than another, or all others. One may be able to manipulate his stick with defter hand. Another may use his physical stature to better advantage, but Just one of these qualities, or even all of them, merely puts that player in the class of stars, "The difference between the star and the superstar is up here (pointing to the head).

Everything else is machine-like. One player skates dif ferently, a second handles his stick in a way all his own. but that Is done without thought. That end of hockey is instinct. The players act like a bunch of manikins.

A Good Head On a Good Body. When a player can synchronize good, clear-headed thinking with highly developed instinctive re SAYS JACK DOYLE They Hit Harder Than Present Day Yankees Because They Had To. TShoroughly agreeing with John Heydler of the National League in his statement that there has been a marked improvement in the develop ment of the game, Jack Doyle, never theless, is willing to break a lance with John A. over that gentleman's views on the old Orioles, for whom Jack played in 1896 and 1897. Heydler, striking a balance between baseball as it was played when he was breaking in as an umpire and as it is now, said he didn'; think it was fair to compare the old Orioles with the present day Yankees.

This is the part of the interview with the National If.i'sue president that Doyle does i.ioroughly agree with: "The Onoles relied on speed, brains and the bunt." The Cub scout concedes the speed of McGraw, Kelly concedes the brains and acknowledges that the Birds were past masters in the art of tap tactics. He also thinks they should be given credit for being remarkably good hitters and pretty fair fielders. As for being hitters, the guides show that the first year Doyle played with the Orioles they had seven .300 hitters, and the second one .400 hitter and seven .300 hitters. Orioles Had to Hit. As a matter of fact the Orioles had to hit, for they never owned pitching staffs of greatness.

The Birds' box-men in 1896, which was the first year Doyle played with them and the last year they won the National League pennant, were Bill HofTer, George Hemming, "Sadie" McMahon, Charley Esper and Arlie Pond, with Jerry Nops. Arthur Clarkson and Joe Corbet, also on the staff and accounting for 8 victories and 4 defeats. In 1897 the Baltimore pitching wai carried oil by Joe Corbett, Pond, Hotter, Nops, Amole, Blackburne and Maul, the last four doing very little work. Of the men named above, Corbett had one great year, Pond was a capable box artist all the time. Hoffer was steady if not great, McMahon was nearly through and so was Hemming.

At no time did Baltimore have a pair of pitchers to match Meekin and Rusie of New York or Nichols and Lewis of Boston. Ned Hanlon used to take discards from Louisville, Washington, any secend division team, stick them in the box and then the Orioles would go out and hit their way to victory behind these men, because bunts wouldn't bring in enough runs. Agree on Oulflelding. Doyle and Heydler agree on the big Improvement in outf ielding, Doyle pointing out that there are inflelder in the outfield now where before thero were not. Doyle regards Cobb as the greatest player and greatest base runner of all time and he was some base runner himself.

Jack holds records by the wholesale. When he was breaking into baseball, at Canton In the Trl-State League, in VMS, at a salary of $150 a month, he stole 81 bases in 80 games and he caught 81- of these games. Doyle Is the winning first baseman of the Temple Cup series, too, He was In three series for this trophy and the teams he was witlv New York In 1894 and Baltimore in 1806 and 1897 won 12 of their 13 games. Doyle has been a Cub scout for 11 years. No other sleuth has been with the Wrlglcy organization that long.

Doyle, as an umpire, was fired from every league he worked In and he worked In the National, the Pacific Const, the Weitern and a few others.

The Curse Of the King. TrIAT is the curse of the ring. There have been many fine chaps champions who made good in other walks of life, but the Imprints of their profession, their their calling, t'amp it what you will, have mutely announced to the world "a fighter." Before my day there was John Mor-risey, one of the heroes of the prize ring. He earned an enviable name in and out of the ring and In the game of politics. He sat in the seats cf the mighty in Albany.

He was respected and had the confidence of 1 all. Ho was one of the founders of the race track. And yet a turf hi torian in recording the crowded 'indents cf 50 years never mentioned part that John Morrisey played. it snobbery or the curse of the All Level Inside Ropes. IN OTHER years the of the ring was indeed a made no difference whether he was white or black.

Peter Jackson was respscted by all who knew him. Joe Jiannette was accorded high praise and was received by men of affairs and women of note in France. If a man is willing to enter the ring and fight for money, why should he object to meeting a son of Ham? The ring is the melting pot of social standards. Like "Mrs. O'Grady and the Governor's lady, who were sisters under the skin." all those who go Inside the ropes drop to the same level.

Paulino recognizes no color line. And so it is that the Spanish champion is taking on the present colored standard bearer among the fighters. Woodchopper And "Fnelying" Man.
