Owner, Just 10 years old, married, clcnncut, likeable lad, hrccictl donn ti Tulsn n few months nirii heralded as a real liantanmclght comer. Ho had newspaper clippings thnt gavo Iilm unite a rep. Ho had iMW'd a draw with l'ranklo Slnson and held a decision over Zulu Kid, to tny nothing of having beaten ninny other lesser lights. But In Tulsa ho got off on the wrong foot. Ills first local bout was with tho sturdy, hard-hitting Stubby Durham. Osner was not In tho best of condition when ho met Durham at the T. A. T.. and Stubby outpointed him In 10 rounds. The margin was not very wide, however, so the boys were rematched to fight a 10-round somlwlndup at Convention hall. This time Osner started llko a whirlwind, tapping Durham at will in the first four rounds, nut in tho fifth Durham connected some weakonlng body blows and In the Blxth he landed a smashing right cfosi on the point of the Osnor Jaw and Franklo took tho count. It looked like Osner was Just about done for, locally. , Thon came tho break In luck. The veteran Hobby Durns decided to do a como-back, and the Tulsa A. C. decided to put him on with Durham In n 10-roundcr. Durham was sojourning In Arkansas, visiting relatives, and tho T. A. C. failed to make connections with him. . Tho night of the Durham-Burns bout rolled around. Hoping that Durham would appear, tho T. A. C. officials made no announcemont of tho fact ho hadn't been reached. When tho hour of tho fight camo Hums was on hand and so was a crowd. Osner was tn the crowd and volunteered to substitute for Durham. Tho writer suggested to tho T. A. C. officials that they put tho facts baforo the audience and let the fans voto on whether Osner and Burns should fight or the program bo called off. This was done, nnd the fans to a man favored putting tho boys on. Osner proceeded to administer a very convincing boxing lesson to Burns. He won by a country mile, not only outpointing tho veteran but seeming to have him In actual distress a couplo of times. This victory wlilch ho had n chnnco lu ncliloo simply through good luck put Osner hack on his fighting feet v. 1th Ttilni fandom.

Hut Osncr's fino showing ngalust Burns caused Matchmaker Newman to chango his plans nnd let tlio Springfield youth go tin In stead. With the crowd shouting for him throughout, Osner handily outpointed Dtuliam.

Two Sides to Every Question A UNIVERSITY regent up In Michigan bids fair to break Into tho limelight by taking th "other side'' of a question that has seemet very one-sided so far. James O. Murfln, a momber of the Michigan ...t.,...ii hin.i nt rerents. would let the college student pick un nny loose change he could In the summer by playing professional or semlpro ball without his amateur standing In school suffering. In a recent Inter, view with The Asioclated Press Mr. Murfln said th collage yule prohibit- lng summer basenan manes nm i v..a of It would do away with scandals. .... ... .... "When the summer baseball rule was adopted twenty-five or thirty vesrs ago it was aimed to prevent colleges from hiring 'ringers' to repro sent them on the gridiron," h continued. "Since that time the precaution has become unnecessary because of adoption of one-year residence rule and the rule that an athlete must be up in his classes. "When the reason for a rule ceases to exist the rule should be abolished. This Is th case with the summer baseball rule. ''Students should bo iiermlttetl to play professional baseball during tho summer to. earn money for college expenses A young man inny giro lessons during tho summer and Ihi Ilglble to play on tho college baseball team. But let Iilm piny professional ball and ho U barred. I would rather n son of initio should play the national game to defray his expenses through school than become n dnnco master or play In nn orchestra. Professional baseball men today are niiiong thu cleanest morally and physically, to bo found anywhere. They ha.o to lie in "AthVs'ho'umbdlvlded Into thre classes. Instead ot two. These ahould be professional, amateur and collegiate. Because an athlete hag been a professional at one time In his life should not bar him from college sports If ho Is scholastlcally eligible. "The summer baseball rulo Is winked nt everywhere. College athletes do not remain amntenrs under the rule. They becomu liars. Tho men revolt at a rule tlwt Is absurd, and silly."
