THEY LIKE TO BE HIT
VY I.E.HOY HAYNES
CHICAGO.—I wonder If Trlmo
parnera Is satisfied?
In New York Wednesday nlgl>t
the Munsollnian Mu«'le Man went
for almost nine rounds against the
current No. 2 threat to white dom-
ination among the beak busters.
Threat No. 2 i , as ; -a know, I<c-
roy llnyncft. It was tho second
time the twain had met.
Tlds Harne* fellow must have
a strange effect upou his oppo-
nents. Camera, the Carnivorous,
was knocked out in three rounds
in March for a new par record on
the Italian course. But LeKoy
made him like It so well up hops
Da Preem for a return engage-
ment. Wednesday night, after ab-
sorbing every kind of punch to
the head and body, Camera went
down in the ninth frame suffer-
ing from a paralysis of the left
h'g from kue€ to ankle. Truly,
llaynes must be a devil of a bit-
ter. . ,
While tho story is fairly common or
bow the boy received fallen arches
after being hit on the head with
a ball bat while standing barefoot-
ed on a bard stono pavement, this
is probably the iirst recorded In-
stance In ring annals of a boxer
suffering a similar fate. The fact
that Camera wanted to try
jlayncs again is. however, good
«vi lenro that he Jalmrilhended, and
'.hat kind of knockout should have
been p iiected.
Hut Camera Isn't the only box-
er iu love with llaynes' lists.
The record of this dusky bat-
tler shows he lias had to whip
some of the boys three or four
times before they were convinced.
The only person he hasn't l>cen
able to delnlteiy convince la Al
Ettore, whom be meets In the City
of Brotherly Love on June 22 Just
as the National Democratic Con-
vent ion starts. Twice last summer
KU.V ileci-ioncd llaynes, but this
time' LeKoy is plotting a definite
revenge. It may not be true, but
I understand LcUoy will pose as
a Democrat and Al as a Republic-
an to get the party parley off with
a bang and Iu the right sort of
a'.'itude.
ISut getting back to Camera. lie
has now been kayoed twice by
liny tics. The average of the two
iliiliis, of nine and three rounds,
an even half dozen, which still is
u better record for blasting the
Ambling Alp into a mole hill
lluu either Mux Ilaer or Joe
Iiouis could make.
Again I ask: I wonder of Priiuo
Camera is satisfied?
ODDS AND ENDS
KM jail "Tar/an" Brown, winner
of the recent marathon classic In
Boston, has virtually been conced-
ed a Place on the lT. S Olympic
squid with the announcement by
Olynpic Committee officials that
they had excused him from furth-
er competition, and lie need not

Hindenburg after his bout with Joe
I.ouis. Unless Max Is very care-
ful, when lie gets socked by Joe
he'll fly through the air with tho
greatest of easo back to Berlin
without benefit of airship.
.Jackie Wilson, the Brown String-
bran of Cleveland who Is the
Olympic boxing pick and national
amateur champion at 112 and 11S
pounds, plan; to enroll at Wllbcr-
force next full, thus giving tho
Ohio institution three of the host
amateurs iu the business. Elwood
Mi-Reynolds, welterweight, who
hopes to return there, and Al
Wardlow, middleweight, also a
student, are umong the country's
best . . . Most unfortunate that
Howard Jones, the Mrginla Union
pole vaulter who went 12 feet 3
at the Penn Relays, can't concen-
trate on his specialty. With the
proper coaching and non-participa-
tion in other events in which lie
Is hardly more than an ordinary
parformer this lad could go to
Berlin in August.
Jesse Owens, first Negro ever to
captain a track squad at Ohio
State University, must be fast--
in case you doubted It. At the llig
Ten meet at Columbus during the
220 yard low hurdles the Buckeye
Bullet missed his stride at the
first hurdle, hit and broke the sec-
ond hurdles, almost stopped and
literally high Jumped the third at

caught the leader at the 10th and

The recent Ponn Relays were ex-
pected to renew the rivalry be-
tween both dusky aces, but the
Temple star tore a tendon sheath
In his right thigh while running
anchor on a relay team at
Franklin Field. Because Peacock
had previously sustained heel and
leg injuries while running in Eu-
rope, pessimistic experts wiped
him off the Olympic lists for 10.16.
It may be June 10 or 20 in Chi-
cago before Enlace competes
again. At that time the N. C. A.

Owens will undoubtedly be there.
