Jjn this rwic meanto T. T. or
7,tinCne Year, ottack spl or

Juntlni tor the nthlcte with his drag-
A dar or two ao wc discussed the
natter of strength with n certain wrest
w who has at one time or another
"otktd out with Lewis, Btecher and
zJbKko. "Of these .three," he Bald,
"and of oil others, ibjszko easily Is
(hi ttrontCBt. I believe ho Is stronger
Tow than he was ten years ago. Lewis
i strong enough, l but even the
Stnngler' hasn't ((the raw physical
"How would Zbymko and Sandow
compare?" we asked him.
"Zbjwko In a walk," he replied. "He
air be forty-two or forty-four or forty
Si but his strength Is something ter
rible and outlandish almost beyond be
lief I don't bo'leve the world at large
in iny line has any one else as strong
u he is." '
NOT using this as a typical case, wc
would t.ay that Time attacks Bpeed
first, then stamina and. then strength.
A man at fifty might bo as strong, for
ii short tHMKion, as he was nt twenty
five or thirty, nut ho wouldn't have
the speed nor yet tho lusting power.
Kama and Leonard
TMSCOVERINO some Knight of the
XKosln who might chanco to ex
change punchet) with Deuny Leonard
has been no easy job.
Leonard happens to comblno speed,
skill, strength, experience, cool judg
ment and punching power to a marked
degree or to an unmarked degree with
his defensive dexterity tossed In.
"Hocky" Kunsas, of Uuffalo, has
shown enough hIuH at leant to make an
entertaining night of It, which Is one
of the main idea?.
The Dusky Title
A KLUUUV between Kid Norfolk and
Ilnrry Wills would carry as much
action bh n young wrir.
WHIh Is about twenty-five poundi
heavier, but Wlllard was sixty pounds
heavier than Dempsey, and Norfolk
bewildering speed might make up the
difference.
For that matter, Dempoey will b a
good twenty pounds heavier than Car
pentler, so the difference In weight be
tween the two battling blacks would not
make It any one-sided affair.
Norfolk haB been dropping 'J0O
pounder without extending himself,
but ho far none of them has been nny
Harry Wills by eight or ten kilometers.
IF BY sonic chance those St. Louis
Browns happen to bob up with a
little pitching they may annoy Cleve
land and New York beyond measure.
For that outfit can paste the well
known pellet almost beyond belief. Last
season they ran up a team average of
.308, fifteen or more points beyond the
hard-hitting Yankees. The Browns are
literally plastered with .300 hitters, and
most of these arc fairly active on their
pins. They can go out and get the runs,
enough runs to win u pennant and a half
If their pitchers hnvo anything.

.Too llogart lias set n mark for other
athletes at the West Philadelphia High"
School to shoot at. After one year of
varsity baseball, "Hogle" has been
elected captain of the nine.
Ilognrt reported to Coach Lucas last
year and told the tutor that he had
aspirations for the Job of backstop.
After giving .Toe the "once over" Lucas
said: "I may be nble to use you
somewhere In the Infield, but J
don't think you have quite the
right build for a catcher. To me
you look to be too small; still, if you
Insist, I'll try you out behind the bat.".
Tho bundle of pep that Lucas saw
working Tarr, the speediest pitcher In
tho league, surprised him.
"Say, who Is that little fellow in
there handling Tarr In such easy fash
Ion," queried the coach of a nearby
candidate.
"Why, that's Joe llogart, the kid
that asked you for a tryout behind the
bat the other day," was the reply of
the rookie.
llogart made such n favorable im
pression on the crltrca that they were
unanimous In proclaiming him one of
the greatest little catchers that has boon
seen on n scholastic diamond for some

attending this Institution, Joe captained
two championship teams, namely, the
baseball nnd track aggregations. He
led these two tcama through the season
without a defeat, and was one of the
best all-around men ever turned out
from this noted school.
The naming of llogart as captain
came as a real surprise to the followers
rh Western nine. It is unusual to
Belect a leader for any tenm who has
only played for one season. Nothing

TO BE READY IN SEPTEMBER
Ily LOUIS II. JAFKE
One of tho best arenas In America,
built especially for boxing, was erased
when the Olympln on South Broad
street was virtually ra-ed by fire yes
terday, but apparently officials of the
efub are little worried. Tho building was
fully covered by Insurance. "We'll have
n classier club, bigger, better equipped
and coder when the next boxing season
opens," said Harry L Edwards, presi
dent of tho Olympla Athletic Associa
tion today. There are twenty-two
stockholders In the club.
"Plans already are under way to
build a new Olympla," continued Ed
wards. "Uoxlng In Philadelphia, to
my mind, is tho biggest of nil sports.
The fans have come out strongly In
supporting the game here ,and It Is our
Idea to give them every powlble conveni
ence. "There will bo several innovations.
It is probable that an additional gallery
will be Installed. A number of shows
held this season turned away hun
dreds of fnnB, beeauno of lack of ac
commodations, and when the now club
Im ready for business about next Sep
tember the neatlng capacity will bo in
creased by several thousand."
A subtermnean patangowny leading
from the boxera' dressing rooms to the
ring la another idea of President Ed
wards. Also, he said. Brnoklnr and
lounging rooms are to be Installed In the
new club.
