After that party we suggested that the "primrose trail" rarely led to any pugilistic heights, or any other ath-letic heights. There are certain physical freaks I won't mention their names in boxing, baseball iind golf, who trained largely on gin, scotch and bourbon and still made the headlines. For a while. But for each one of these excep-:lon- s I can name you ten who trained correctly and reached the top of the hill Gene Tunney, Jack Dempsey, Joe Louis Benny Leonard, Bobby Jones, Bill rilden, Byron Nel-son, Sammy Snead, Jug McSpaden, Gene Sarazen, Don Rudge, Ellsworth Vines, Bill Johnston, nil of our track Grm. Tunney stars and 98 per :ent of our great football and base-ball players such as Mel Ott, Carl Hubbell, Blozis, Nagurski, Bill Dlck-p- y but why go on? Most of these are the ones who count. This question was raised by the recent meeting at Madison Square Carden between two primrose trail-ers from the pastLee Oma and Kaksi. Both started out along the soft and easy road. Both were phys-ically qualified to do a much better job than they displayed in their efforts. But neither was willing to pay the price of condition the price that Tunney, Dempsey and Joe Louis paid to be ready with the best they had to give. And I'm giving you three of the tops along this rug-ged road. As a general rule the "primrose trail" has a sudden, abrupt and dismal finish. At the start of their careers Oma and Bak-s- i were galloping merrily along this trail and getting nowhere in a hur-ry. Now both are supposed to have changed their earlier habits In the understanding that both are about the two best heavyweights left, out-side of war service. Both wasted valuable time in Improving them-selves. It took a world war to plant them up near the front. Oma seems to be going up faster than Baksi. He beat the tough deci-sively in 10 rounds, weighing only 185M pounds to Baksi's 211. Keeping in Condition This isn't any sermon or lecture on the matter of keeping in shape, or the value of hard training. But there is a general writing and talk-ing tendency to overplay some of the playboys who traveled a long way up in spite of their odd ways of training. Harry Greb was one. So was Mickey Walker. Walter Hagen was another, later on In his career. And there was Rube Waddell, Bugs Ray-mond, Shufflin' Phil Douglas great pitchers. Even the overpowering Babe Ruth had his lapses. So did Jim Thorpe. So did Grover Cleve-land Alexander. But what about the great majority of stars who made a point of being in shape who trained for the Job? The best conditioned fighters I've known in the last 20 years were Gene Tunney, Jack Dempsey and Joe Louis. And they were not so bad. Most of the star ballplayers be-long to this list I should say about 92 per cent of them. I mean such big leaguers as Ty Cobb, Christy Mathewson, Tris Speaker, Eddie Col-lins, George Sisler, Lou Gehrig, Carl Hubbell, Mel Ott, Hans Wagner, Lefty Grove, Joe Gordon, Bill Dickey I could keep on for two columns. I'd say about 99 per cent of the college and pro football players the top ones keep In shape and re-frain at least from the gentle art of getting cockeyed. It makes a better story to write or tell about the fellow who was plastered the day or the night b-eforeand yet came along to win. But I could also tell you about many more who might have won many more who flopped for the same rea-son. There are, of course, certain ex-ceptions. But there are not so many exceptions when you rank them against the vast majority who took the other road. Those who lack the courage or perhaps the fortitude who hope to be athletes without proper training and conditioning are in for a heavy price and a heav-ier jolt. They at least are buck-ing tremendous odds. Football Weaknesses Football officials have been given too heavy a burden. They can make or break any close game. It Is for this reason that we suggest two changes that will not only help out the officials, but will also help foot-ball. The first would permit for-ward passing any place back of the line. The second is that after a for-ward pass Is thrown, it would be made a free ball for both receiv-ers and defenders. It wouldn't mat-ter who went after it.

India's Sikhs Honor Their Royal Martyrs The Sikhs are the warriors of "Mother India." Leader of the 5 million is the Maharajah of Patiala, 33, of the state of Patiala. On December 27 they staged a great festival to honor the founder of their religion, Guru Gobind Singh, and his two sons who became martyrs. The story goes that the sons of Guru were taken and held hostage by Moslems in an attempt to force their father to give up his religion. He refused, and the Moslems built a tomb around the seven and nine-year-o- ld boys, burying them alive. Center shows the Maharajah, shoeless, carrying the first basket of earth from the site of the new shrine. Right shows the warriors in colorful contingent. HUOUSEHOLD illlflTSte Add a bit of vinegar to the dish-water to cut the grease. A temperature of from 60 to 65 degrees jT. is suitable for most plants. To flatten rug corners that curl and slip on the floor, cut out pieces of cardboard, and glue to the underside of the rug at the corners. Put a few rubber bands around the handle of your bath brush to insure a firm grip upon it. To prevent corks from sticking in bottles containing glue or pol-ishes, coat the cork with vaseline. Cover the top of your bedspring with oil cloth. This will be a good protection for your mattress and will make it easier to turn your mattress. Use the top of a lipstick con-tainer over the ends of your cur-tain rods when pushing them through freshly starched curtains. To rid the chimney of soot, burn potato peelings or the tops from mason jars or other bits of zinc. Keep the damper open while cleaning. A few drops of lemon juice gives added flavor and also helps ten-derize ground beef. Keep your household sponges fresh by soaking them in cold salt water. To prevent your piano wires from rusting, tack a small bag of unslacked lime just inside. This will absorb the moisture.
