RECORD CROWD
Paul Berionbach and Jack De-
laney. principals in the season's oat-
!Mling ring attraction. will draw a
ioapnity crowd of 60.000 and a gate
‘sf half a million dollars for their
ll-round world's light-heavyweight
a pionship mate h at Ebbets
l‘iei . Thursday night. in the opinion
of Humbert J. Fuguy, promoter of
the titular contest.
The advance sale reached 8310.000
Mordsy. the promoter said. with
virtually all of the lower-priced seats
lead. Ollieeo of Fuguy in the Wool-
[worth building were thronged all
in” With ticket seekers. whiie‘every
imail brought orders.
If the gate fulfills Fugazy's expec-
tations the contest will be entered
‘in the record books as the fourth
“full. right. from a financial stand-
point in the long history of fisii-
i cuffs. Also it will be the first fight
over to reach such financial propor-
.tions under the direction of any pro-
moter other than Tex Rickard.
The dstio experts are making De-
, a slight favorite over the
on plan. All agree it will be a
battle between Berlenbach's flashing
port waliop and the chailenger's
sham shooting right, with little to
choose between the calibre of the re.
lapective blows.
I Honors between the two rivals
f‘stand even as they near the end of
{training for their third meeting. In
ithe drst fight. Delaney stopped Ber-
leubach. while last December the
champion gained a decision over his
ichailenger in a 15-round contest.
‘ Delaney is looking anxiously at
.the fourth round. which he considers
his lucky inning. It will be remem-
bered tho first match ended in the
, fourth and in the second match De.
lanoy had Berlenbach on the floor in
the'fourth. _.
Reports from the two training
camps oontained the news that the
we gladiators have completed their
hard ’wcrk. In an unofficial weigh-
ing-in the champion scaled 172 3-4
9 while Delaney Was down to 172.
The challenger, who is training at
Derby. on the shores of the pictur-
esque Houeatonic river. will take
only a light vorkout today with a
long walk Wednesday to close his
training. He is due to arrive in New
York Wednesday night. for the of-
ficial weighing at the offices of the
r: to Athletic commission. Thurs-
\ ay afternoon at 2 o’clock.
. Berlenbach will remain at his
' ‘Iummit. N. J.. quarters until Thurs-
. - noon when he will come to the
metropolis for the weighing cere-
monies.
Promoter regal! announced that
» .000 unreserved seats will be placed

JOCK HUTCmSON—BALANCE
AGAINST SLICE
Slicing has caused a. lot of timid
beginners to give up the game in
disgust. It is most aggravating to
play a round of golf and slice nine
out of 10 shots to the tail and uncut
grass. Slicing is caused by the face
of the club cutting across the ball
and starting it to spin left to right.
There are two ways that this can be
'done.
made by the expert player who
slices for a purpose and the other is
the slice of the dulfer who sends the
hands in ahead of the club.
This is caused by poor pivoting.
The player attempts to hit with his
body and his hands before the club—
head is permitted to connect proper-
ly.
A great many duffers think they
are helping matters by allowing for
a slice. They will ‘aim the shot far
to the left. which permits the bail.
unless sliced very badly. to swing
into the middle of the course or at
least hold some place on the fair-
way.
If one will put out his left foot
more and aim to the right of the
course and then hit the ball hard. I.
hook will result and the ball will
swing in the other way. A half
hour's practice once every day or
two for a while will set one right on
One is the intentional slice V

Cape Gris Nos. Trance. July 1!.—
From wherellisit on the beach. 1
can look across to the white cliffs
of the English coast which fairly
sparkle in the sunshine. They do not
seem very far. but I never want to
reach them except by swimming
across.
During the clear moonlights now.
the brilliant Dover light appears
even closer. Its intermittent flashes
seem to beckon. a friendly signal.
I can wait a favorable day to get
over there because I am passionately
fond of Gris Nee. The peaceful life
here is such a contrast to the noisy
city life I have always known that
I. find the change comforting and
invigorating. Except for the holiday
visitors at the Hotel de la Sirens.
there are only a few peasants and
fisher-folk about here. The broad
beach stretches five miles to Wisson.
which is a, larger village between
here and Calais. and at low title I
often walk there and back.
I love the French countryside and
enjoy rambling about the quaint
little farming places. The people
are so friendly and kind that the
days all are short. and the water
is getting warmer and it will not
be long before I can make an at-
tempt.
1 am rounding into very satisfac-
tory condition. I make it a practice
to swim twice a day. when the
tides are running. I usually swim
hard for an hour or more. A row-
boat with a sail attachment accom-
panies me, so I have no apprehen-
sion in swimming far out. When the
water gets a little better. I am go-
ing to take longer swims. which will
no real endurance tests to equip me
for the long grind.
But one cannot swim all the time.
and that‘s why I have taken up golf.
I find it exhiiiarating. We have laid
out a course of four or five holes
on the beach. Probably Bobby Jones
would be bored with it. but rock
formations form natural bunkers,
and it is plenty sporting enough for
me.
Visitors like to watch me swim.
but they get many good laughs
watching me play golf. But I don't
care. I enjoy it. and when my friends
beat me I invite them to swim with
me. so that keeps them quiet.
Also I am trying to learn French.
which is even more difficult than
golf. 1 take lessons from Monsieur
Leloir and Madame Leloir. who con-
duct the hotel; also from the \‘lVa-
cious Louiseltc. the cashier. They
are all charming. and we are great
friends. Monsieur has brought an
American flag. and it flies over the
hotel in my honor.
DIAMOND DISPUTES DECIDED.
By Billy Evans.
. HOW is it possible to make a
double play when two runners are
standing on the same base?
0 O O
It is impossible to make a double
play in such a situation unless tho
runners play dumb baseball.
All that is necessary to eliminate
any chance for a double play is for
the original occupant of the base to
stay there. If he does. only one man
can be retired.
When two runners are on the
same base. touching of the runner
l‘iviho advanced to that base. retires
n.
The only way to get two men. is
for the runner. who is entitled to
the bag. to become confused and
step off the base. This would per-
mit him to be touched out for a
double play if the man handling the
ball was on his toes.
