Without referring to the atory that Louis dropped to the canvas after Sparring Mate Eddie Malcolm threw a right hand punch at him In yesterday's training session, the bull necked ex collegian issued a statement declaring: 1.

BASKETBALL PLAYERS MUST BE RELAXED DENVER, Jan. 2A. UD To be a good basketball player, you must learn to relax, The big difference between a star cage performer and a good football player is the difference between looseness and tenseness, says Clyde Cac) Hubbard, head basketball coach and assistant football coach at Denver university A nlaver must be tense for foot ball," Htfbbad said today, but for basketball he must relax. There's all the difference in the world be tween the two games. As a general thing, a football star does not make a good basketball player.

"It takes him too long to relax and get loose. Down there under the basket, where there is a lot of contact, he is inclined to tighten up and soon fouls right out of the ball game." A larger percentage of football players in the Rocky Mountain conference play basketball, the Denver coach said he believes, than In nearly any conference in the country. 1 You'll find that a school that ranks near the top nationally in basketball rarely has a football man in the lineup," Hubbard said. 7 Ms f.V f4 mm? i i ABOVE I a picture of Nolan Jor gensen who will hold down the pivot position for the Idaho Falls Tlf Cnufl th? tangle with the Blackfoot Broncos Uln.heJnJ.r..hlg?

UP The Philadelphia Athletica will "string the baseball chain farm system because Connie Mack, their veteran pilot, sees no other wey of competing with teams like the Yankees and Cardinals. "The day is not far off when every one of the 16 major league clubs will be supplied with farms ranging from class AA leagues down to D's," Mack said last night in announcing his decision to an established chain system. So far his only working agreement is with Williams port of the New York Pennsylvania league, and he said it would take "one year, two or maybe more" to put his new plan into operation.

Got to Fail in Line "You can see why I've got to fall in line," said the veteran manager whost Athletics finished in last place in the American league last season. "The Cincinnati Reds, after fin ishing in last and seventh place for years, went into the minor league farm system. Last year they finished at the top of the second division and made a net profit Of $105,000." "How can I compete with clubs mM '1 4 Kt A Ml live up to rulea and regulations) Predicts Outcome. Then Pastor took a deep breath and predicted: 'I will prove conclusively I will stop Joe Louis within 10 rounds Friday night if he is not allowed to wear extra bandages. The Louis training camp episode was regarded variously aa "one of those things" and as a legitimate knockdown.

The possibility that Pastor might duplicate the stunt undoubtedly would draw more fans than if he was conceded no chance at all, as has been the prediction. Louis insisted he slipped and that the punch on his bead had nothing to do with his going down. Ringside observers, all fight writers, were mixed in their opinions. Meanwhile, the Garden expanded Its gate prediction to a possible (125,000 sell out for the 10 round bout Plows Clear Track for Two Day Event Opening Friday; Dog Races Feature (Special to The Poet Regiater.)

VAN METER, Iowa, Jan.

23. UP) Speed! That's what Bob Feller likes. Cleveland's young pitching sensation has plenty of speed to put the hop on his fast ball, and this winter he is getting his supreme thrill by sending his new automobile roaring over the highways. Seventy or eighty miles an hour. It doesn't matter to the Iowa farm youth, who became the American league strikeout record holder at 17, as long as there is smooth sailing ahead.

Bob bought his car shortly after the close of the major league baseball season. He uses it principally to dash back and forth between his farm home and the Van Meter high, school Doesn't Take Chances, But the young fellow who struck out 17 Philadelphia batters to tie the major league strikeout mark for a single game asserts he doesn't take any chances. Bob has sufficient reasons to go places in a hurry. He's a busy boy. He has a heavy scholastic schedule physics, government, English literature and history that he wants to keep up so he can graduate in June.

He will report to the Indians at New Orleans, February 28. A private tutor will assist him with his school work when he leaves Van Meter. Farm work is keeping the prise rookie of 1936 in condition. Before and after school he helps his father with the chorea on their 360 acre farm. Ever try feeding 60 cattle?" asks Bob.

In Great Shape. With all my winter conditioning should be in great shape next spring. Dad and I figure I should win 20 games next season!" Besides driving the new car, his chief hobbies are hunting and basketball. As for the girls, Boh pooh poohs any insinuation there might be anything but baseball love in his life. No, sir, I Int have time for the girls.
