The Arena ring has plenty soft spots your fisthas mused.Jack as you know is the only Jewish heavyweight of any importance since Mendoza who fought in Europe in the Sixteenth Century. We leave out ‘‘Battling” Levinsky as he was never a firstclass heavyweight, but one of thegreatest light-heavies the game hasever known.We bear that Blitman is up in thePoronos and is down to 129 poundsand is in fine shape. Keep it up Harry!BaseballWell, well. well, what do you think of that? Even I was wrong, that’s unusual. isn’t it? Moe Berg is no longer a second baseman as he was in college days at Princeton. Moe is now seeing that men don't go and steal his old bases. Under the tutelage of Ray Sehalk, Berg has developed into a most promising young catcher and what ismore be is hitting at a .309 clip, notw bad.John MeGraw is well pleased with Andy Cohen as he playing him regular. The glamour has all left Andy and there is no more talk of him either pro or con and he gets his boos and cheers as any other player and we are glad to say we hear more cheers than boos tor him.Local Athletes.It occurred to me one day to run a few lines on local athletes who have not broken into the limelight as yet but show promise. After thinking the matter over I discussed it and came to the conclusion that if any of the readers know of any youngsters who show any promise in their respective lines I will devote as much time and s?»ce as possible in this column.I would like to get some readers’ news on my articles and all worth *hde letters will be published if sodesired.All correspondence should be addressed to me in charge of the Jewish Exponent, 728 Ledger Bldg., Phila.
