A turfman familiar with the Whit

for the statement that James Rowe Is
looking more to the filly than to Tryster
to win the laurels today.
Trystrr haw been heralded over the
country asthr big Whitney dependence,
while Prudery has been quietly given
the closest attention by America's pre
mier trainer, nnd no racer was ever in
better condition.
Rowe knows nf Leonardo' flash of
speed, and he knows the lightning dash
to the front that is Ix-onardo's great
advantage cannot be matched by the
slower starting, but staying. TryRter, if
the authority quoted is correct.

TITLE L
Patersjon Lightweight, New Jer-

Future Crown Contender
DEFEATS JOE BENJAMIN
By LOUIS II. .T.VFTK
Another lightweight boxer has cm
htnroned his moniker on the listk:
horiron as one who is about to get into
the running to try and make "The Life
nf a Champion" miserable for Benny
Leonard. This youth already laya
claim to a ring title, but compared
with a world's crown his laurels arc
picayune.
Willie Herman, of Paterson, and who
admits being the lightweight champion
of the State of New Jerses. Is the
Slovenian beginning to blossom, as n
probable contender for the. diadem
ecintillntlng at the present time atop
Leonard's well-brushed locks. Herman
placed his name prominently and pro
miscuously before the pugilistic Pbl,c
several days ago when he mirceeded in
outpointing Joe Benjamin In n sched-

NEED STRONG WRISTS
FOR ATHLETIC FEATS
,
Good Hands Also Essential to Become Topnotchcr in
Any Branch of Sports Cites Case of
Georges Carpentier
. By GnANTLAND RICE
A Single Hound
When ike opal lights In the West had
died
And the night leas wrapping the red
ftrns round, i
As I rente home by the woodland sidt
I heard the cry of a single hound.
The huntsman had gathered hit pack
and gone;
The last late hoof had echoed acay;
The horn teat twanging a toAff tcay on
For the only hound that teas still
astray.
While, heedless of all but the teorlc in
hand,
Up through the brake tehere the
brambles twine,
Crying his joy to the drowsy land
Janclln drovo on a burning line.
Thc air was
Irost:
sharp telth a touch
The moon came up
tike a tehetl
gold;
The wall at thf end of the woods he
crossed
And flung atcay on the open wold.
And long as I U'tened betide the stile
The larches echoed that eerie, sound,
Steady and tireless, mile On mile,
The hunting orti of a single hound.
W. H. O., in Punch.
Hands, Wrlsfs and the Punch
FKW competitors whei, partake of
baseball, coif tennis or even box
ing, renlUe the leading role played by
the wrists nnd hands In the final lever
age which builds up the punch.
Any entry with stiff wrists or with
weak wrists is under a blasting handi
cap in any of these snort. For it is
the wrlstn in particular that give most
of the snap needed to get distance, nud
when the wrists arc not operatlhg In a
correct manner the body and arms
merely get In the way.
Thc last flash of speed, the flash that
comes as bat, club or racket nits tne
ball, is thc element that turns the trick.
It Is much after the manner of crack
ing a whip. Thc shoulders and body
plav their part, but they merely back
up the wrists when the Wow Is
launched. For the wrists lead the main
Utssault.
Tli roe Instances
CARPKNTIKR Isn't any troglodyto
by a number of ton. He Is even
light for a noimal heavyweight.
Tot he is supposed to carry terrific
hitting power. Where does it come
from 't
Take n look at his handt nnd wrists
thick, powerful wrists with big,
powerful hands. Crupchers all the
way.
Jock Hutchison and Bobby .Tones
won't weigh lfiO pounds. But they
hove the hands nnd wrists of .2J0O
pounders, and It is with these assets
that both get their abnormal crashing
power.
WK HAVE just located the king of
Ham. He informed us that he had
a big bet down on Deinpsey, but hope I
Carpentier would win. You'll hear of
more of these later on.
piM TILDHN still puts his faith in
