MATHIAS AS GOOD
A SHOWMAN AS AN ATHLETE
By "Recorder"
The two exhibitions by the Olympic Decathlon Cham- plon, Bob Mathins, at King George V School yesterday afternoon and at the New Territories School Sporis at the Army ground, Boundary Street, this morning, were conducted with excellent showmanship.
He is a great stylist in the events he knows, has a way about him of being on very easy terms quickly with schoolboys and schoolgirls, and needs no help from anyone in putting himself over.

TIME TO EXPOSE GUILTY
MEN OF THE RING

Says FRANK ROSTRON
Britain's Boxing Board of Control is planning a big up-to-date gymnasium in Central London,
So secretary Teddy Waltham tells me. They're already looking for the floor space-and more money.
The new Contre of Sock is intended to be a glorified version of Stilman's Gym in New York (where you pay half a dollar to see fighters, from the near-champs to the preliminary boys, doing their sparring).
