EVV YORK, April 4.—T h e writer had ft long talk the other night with Leo P. Flynn, manager of Jark Renault, the Canadian heavyweight; It will be re called that the opinion was re cently expressed in thin column that Renault would be the best heavyweight i the possible ex _ception of Dempsey, if Renault could Tie made to think he is the best. “ The writer suggested that Renault ^suffered from an Inferiority complex, - that he did not think he is as good Zax others know lie is. 2 The writer has been, watching ^Renault's career the last' year with •deep Interest. a He candidly admits that in the be' j|ginnlng he rather doubted the big •Canadian's ability, listening with a "skeptical smile whenever Leo P. ■Fljejh endeavored to impress upon -.him Renault's promise. 2 The skepticism was due to the fart •■•that Renault seemed something of .what Fistiana calls an "in and outer,” .Wow making a good fight, now mak ing a poor fight. . Then about a year ago Renault be gan making every fight a good fight, •whowlns amazing improvement, dis playing a real punch. Schooled By Britton. He was schooled by Jack Rritton, I .Jh» old welterweight champion, and ‘The result of the schooling was quick -ly apparent in Ttenaul's boxing, in his manner of “flipping” his left. Also he was tutored by Kid Nor folk, the Baltimore negro, one of the greatest light heavyweights in the world. Step by step Renault came on, ♦eating one opponent after another, always by a knockout, mlwava show ing constant improvement. He developed a style that was all 1 is.own, a style that for a time was leather misleading. George Under wood, brilliant New York boxing writer, best described this style In re porting Renault's defeat of Floyd JdJwson, which was one of Renault's rtlpst notable achievements In 1923. .•Underwood said that Renault "Stalked'' his opponent. That nearly tJBgprJhes the Renault style. The big 4Sn«dlan carefully. calculaitingly ..iualls his man through the labyrinth 5;r.fjte rounds, slashing when he sees an opening, wearing his prey down. » “T read what you said about * Renault's inferiority complex." said • Flynn the other night. “You are * right, and you are also wrong. Gains In Confidence. You've been following Jack's physi ' cal advancement, but you haven't ' been keeping track of his mental de » velopment. : “There is no doubt that Renault ; lacked a little In the matter of eon i fidence at the beginning of his career. I All young fighters do. But he began • gaining in confidence as he developed ■_ in nbllity. ..“Today.” Flynn said Impressively, ‘T don't believe there's a man in the game as confident, as cocksure of himself, as Jack Renault." ^'Jtenault thinks he can beat any matl In tho world, Flynn Went on. He dooofiot her Jack Dempsey from that thought but he Is not 'challenging Dempsey Just now. -•'"Let us suppose Lulo Angel Flrpo keeps his threat of retiring from the ettfc, or at least does not return to HnjWdca this year. Harry Wills is . sinned to fight Flrpo. ; ;, “If Flrpo doesn’t appear, Who is * Witte to fight? Not Dempsey, be ! uause Dempsey Is tied up with mov ' Vf P'cturo contracts that will keep ■ him.busy until fall. What other ; filavyweight In the world would give, : • real fight, would produce n ’ iWg spectacular match?” Flynn ’ aakad "?M*ck Renault?” the writer^ sug gested. “'"Jack Renault—right:” said Flynn. •Walter Hoover to Hurl Challenge at Gilmore * Philadelphia, April 4.—Walter M. * Hoover, former holder of the Phlla 2 delpbla gold challenge sculling cup. will challenge W.

Fourth Floor Yank Olympic Team Greatest Ever Organized If America Does Not Win by W itlor Margin Than Ever Be fore It W ill Not Be Due to Lack of Manpower. EW YORK, April 4.—Not since the A. E. F. went over and hung the kaiser's shirt on the llindenhurg line lias an Amer ican invasion of Europe approach ed in magnitude the campaign to be waged by the United Sta to* (o' Olympic team, ac ^1 cording to plans completed Friday by the American Olympic committee. Of the 19 brandies of competition yet to be held, the committee lias announced that it lias filed team entries in 10 with more than a vague possibility that the remaining three will see the American crest In action. In numbers and variety, it will he by far the greatest athletic team ever sent out of the 1'uited States and constitutes an unspoken tribute to the menace of a greatly im proved opposition, notably Finland. If America does not win tlie Olym pic games by a wide margin than ever before, it will not be be cause money and man-power have been saved. In some few of the competitions, of course, little is expected from the American entr'es. They can not, for example, hope to prevail in Rugby football, to he held May 3 to 19. nor in soccer, May 13 to June 9. But when tlie main detachment sails on Juno ]t; and the polo team goes into action three days later the point totals will begin to rally around the flag. The main detachment will include the track and field squad, the earsmen, ratcli-ss-csteh-can wrest lers, hovers, gymnasts and swtni ineis. Of these the Americans will get more than ttieir share of points in track and field, boxing and swimming and may win at least two of tlie main events in rowing and wrestling. What they will do in target shoot ing, shotgun matches. equestrian sporth. fencing and cycling, only a soothsayer may foretell, but vve will lay dollars against dimes that they either win or finish one-two in tennis and the modern pentathlon.
