Over 2ni fans lurried out last
night to got n first hand peek at
Ace, toli, thr Coos Bay pride,
who, is to battle Joe Urn-man at
liob Quick's new (iraiils Pass Ath
letic club on Friday night. March
10. Tho Coos Ray boxer seemed j
to he In wonderful condition, but
only boxed a few rounds on hlsj
first nlKht. but will do more each'
nlKht until the bin niht when he!
mixes with Joe (lorman. Con
iiler. hk the Interest shown by the
spectators, everything points to al
packed Iiouhp on FrlduK. nitfht. j
Reports from the (lorman camp
are that his KVmnaHlum was also
crowded with spectators, with no
space to spare tliirliur his training
hour last nij;ht. Oorman Is in bet
ter condition now than he was in'
tho f.ht In which ho won over!
Johnny Carlson.
Holes, during his brief workout
last niKbt. she weil that he was i
a boxar of rare boxltiK ability, lie.
looks like a target that wl.l be!
very difficult to hit, and Is ex-j
tremely fast on his feet. He was I
up before the proverbial milkman 1
hour this morning and by the
time other folks were having their
breakfast, ho was back at Quick's
fivmu'tfiuni, taking a shower and
a rubdown. Roles has brought
with him from Marshfiebl a rcKU-
tar champion's camp, consisting of j
hparrltu; partners, trainer, men
to nib him down and last, but not
least, an ever watchful manager, I
.lohn Heron.
In comparing Roles with (lor-;
man. as to appearance, il may
be said that Poles is built along
different lines than the former i
Pacific coast Junior lightweight'
champion. While ihey weigh the;
same. Ace is taller and sltmderer. i
while (lorman is shorter nnd
stockier.
As a result of watching: the;
workouts last n!ghf, the advance j

BILL ON THE JOB
(By ALun J. Could, Associated
Press SiMrtH Jul It or.)
NEW YORK. Mar. 14. iJP)
America will launch her 1928 Davis
cup campaign next week with HI::
Hill Tilden In command, nnd har
mony in the ranks, at least ho far
an present prospects go.
The debates of the past may he
revived and a little later on when.
It cornen to deciding Just what Ih i
to be done nhoQ send in tr a team!
to Europe, but, nil hands agree, 1
can be put aside while energies are
concentrated on the piny in the
American zone. j
For the present the decision 1k!
made. There will be only onej
American Jteam and Its full;
strength, which means the pres-',
enco of Rig Bill, wilt he toHsedj
Into the zone competrXon ngainptl
Mexico, China and probably Ju-j
pan. Tilden has yielded to tho ;
call for hiH Rervices, not only tn j
lend his Individual Htrength as the
country's number one man. hut to!
begin the task that America nowj
faces In Davis cup piny building
from the ground up, with an eye
to the future as well as to thej
present.
In tho combination role of cap-l
tain and coach. Tilden will call the'
roll ncxtCMond.'iQ at Augusta, Ou.i
wner mo rirsi tennis training
camp In American tennis history
will be established.
One of baseball's happy hunting
grounds has been chosen for this
unique event. Augusta not only is
the present headquarters of base
ball's "Little Napoleon." John Me
Oraw, nnd the Oinnts, but also the
home of Tyrus Raymond Cobb.
Like Tlldten, Cobb is also at
tempting to carry on in the big
show, although both readily admit
their futures nre behind them. Ii
Is worth mentioning. Incidentally,
that Tilden once entertained bane
hall ambitions himself. He cavort
ed around many :i Philadelphia
diamond before his name became
EntnrnationallO conspicuous in ten
nis. .
Tennis. Rig Hill holds. Is a much
more wearing sport, more exhaust
ing physically than baseball. That
Is why the tennis veteran feels he
Is no belter equipped at 35 to keen
his own . game at tnp notch than
Cobb, at 40, is to keep up with
the younger element In baseball. .
; "I have played both sports so'
that I know whereof I speak when!
I say that tennis takes a bigger j
toll In speed and stamina than
baseball," says Tilden.
"Don't get the idea that T think
"While trailing big game in Africa, I km'e never
been without my Lucky Strike Cigarette. Once
on the Abyssinian border my shipment of them
from America missed us, and I was miserable
until the natives followed our tracks across the
Kaisout desert to 'Nairobi with my precious cargo
of Luckies. After four years of smoking Luckies
in uiiidest Africa, I find my voice in perfect con'
dition for my lecture tour in America."
'Sml
The Cream of
the Tobacco Crop"
for Lucky Strikes says
Tobacco Buyer
"Buying tobacco for LUCKY STRIKE
Cigarettes is a matter of selecting the finest
i m crown. It is my duty and instruction to
' buy 'The Cream of the Tobacco Crop' for
this brand. Nothing is omitted oe spared
in making my purchase just a little better.
Quality always tells."
C .
I'm through. Just because I haven't'
won a big championship in two;
years." he went on. "Hut 1 know1
my future Is behind me. It's just
ia question of how much longer I1
can keep up the pace." ,
Tilden will have vole authority
In selection of the American Davis
cup team. Pig Pill h.y taken or
ders for eight years of International
competition, but this year he will
be the chief strategist as well a
the chief performer.
At the same time he will Impart
the full benefit of his experience
and racquet skill to the up and
coming youngsters, especially those
of the type of Frank Shields and
Junior C'oen, who will see little
or no actual cup competition this
year, but upon whoFe shoulders
much of the hope for the future
reals.
Tilden cannot much longer oc
cupy a Kollff? playing role In the
attempt to bring the cup back to
America, but he will at least spare
no effort to develop youngsters
who will upset the French regime
in the future.
Uttle Hill Johnston, long Til
den's partner In international tri
umph, seems definitely out of the
Davis cup picture. This was taken
somewhat fop granted last Septem
ber after th? Californian's down
fall in the challenge round with
France, but tulk of another come
back by Uttle BUI was revived
over the winter. Now, liowever,
with Johnston missing iQjr.i the,
spring training squad and the
American zone play. It does not
appear likely he will bPcalled on
