FOOTBALL In the Sport World By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, — Whatever may be said against the artistry of Paul Berlenbach it certainly cannot be taken away from the light heavyweight champion that, he is willing and is. a champion of the old rough and ready school. . Berlenbach is not a picture in the ring but he is impressive. He hasn’t the grace of a blue ribbon - saddle horse but he hax the power and the rather awk ward but effective movement of a’ Percheren. ,ln bis unortbordox style, he is much like Harry Greb, the middleweight champion, , of whom the stylists say—“He’s They are ot the seme pattern in another respect.

It is pleasing to hear one of the Ba- tioa's. leading scholar* come to the defense of a greatly, abased and mistreated game. Addressing the Princeton Club (gt a dinner given here reeeatly to pay tribute to the 1915 chant pions ot the “Big Three,“ Dr. John Grier Hibben, president ot the university, said there was no over-emphasis placed upon football at Princeton. “At . Princeton," he said, "we do emphasise football during a particular season, but not at the expense ot more serious things, and once football is over we ■ drop it. / They Say our boys are to be ruined by the publicity accorded to football but I do not believe it They did not lose their heads in the games against Yale and Harvard and they are not going to lose them now be cause of this adulation or later on in life when they leave us. “Bill Roper is a great football coach and greater than that he is a man. We are grateful to him because in teaching these boys how to play football, he also taught one of the greatest lessons in life— manliness." Roper said at the dinner that the 1925 team was the greatest that ever represented Prince ton— in spite of the fact that Princeton did not jrin every I n Lee “Dreadnaught" Lattin tbs game on the schedule.

He took the match and beat De laney. He won. his championship from Mike MeTigue bu what many critics thought was a hair-line decision but he was willing to try again.' When the Nfew York commission ruled that he could not fight out of his class until he had met MeTigue, again he drove to Tex Rickard’s office and got right dpwn to business. "Get MeTigue ,*nd let ma know the date,” he said. Rickard asked him If he would consider a match against Georges Carpentier or Gene Tunney, he replied: “You've got, ma now. Get them." The esteem with which Ber lenbach Is held by his rivals was made known after the commis sion had ordered him to fight MeTigue. The order caused general criticism among the writers be cause MeTigue made such a miserable showing against Tiger Flowers, a middleweight. . , , , . , A jKansas Giant SPRING SUIT SAMPLES Just In MILLER’S TOGGERY "Hab-a-dash Inn” ’ GARDEN BOOK PHONE US OR DROP US KAIL FOR YOU.
