AN FRANCISCO.
Feb. 23.—Tlie larg
Lest crowd ever to
see a prize fight in
California daw doe
Benjamin win a
hard earned deri
sion this afternoon
over .lack Silver,
after 10 rounds of
savage fighting.
By his victory
Benjamin won the
Pacific coast light
weight champion
ship and the right
t<> participate in
the eastern elimination events, which
will determine who shall wear the
world’s lightweight crown, discarded
b,v Benny I*eonard.
Silver, entering the ring a decided
favorite in the betting, was conceded
a pre battle edge on Benjamin In box
ing. Benjamin, however, disregarded
the touted Silvers’ clever defense and
waded right into him from tlie open
ing gong, piling up points and forcing
the local Hebrew to the open and
attempting to slug with him.
Once during the course of the fight
Benjamin knocked Silver down with
n heavy right to the chin. Silver
took a three count before the gong
■ ime to his alii. Again In the fourth
round Sliver was almost upset by
an identical blow'.
Both men fought furiously through
out and both were bleeding from nose
and mouth before the fight was half
under* way.
Benjamin took the first, third,
fourth* fifth, sixth, eighth and last
rounds. Silver had an advantage In
the second and seventh, and the ninth
was even.
Benjamin knew he could not defeat
Silver by standing off and boxing,
and kept Silver so crowded tliat the
latter not once during tlie contest
could show liis touted boxing prowess.
Benjamin carried the fight to his
opponent throughout, staying in close
and playing for the body, wearing
down Silver, who had no chance to
put tlie full force of his punches into
his swings. Benjamin took plenty of
hard punches in trying to eome in
rinse, hut managed to shake them off,
and several times appeared to have
Silver on the "go.”

SHOOTING.
SHOOTING for the basket is
the aim of basket ball of
fenlve tactic. Without the ability
to ehoot accurately when within
tange of the basket, all offen
Hive work is wasted. A team unable
10 shoot when within reasonable dis
lanee rtf jhe basket is weakened in
its choice of tactics, as It must con
fine itself to a defensive style of play
—taking the under hand instead ot
ihe upper hand. It is likewise weak
ened In defense, because the cardinal
principle that the best defense is *
strong offense holds as true In bas
ket ball as In other contests.
Good •hooting depend* upon accuracy
of vision, correct form *nd unremitting
practice. A player with » natural
"•ye" for the basket, who ia able to hit
continually about tha rim, haa an ad
vantage alnra form in thia caa* ahouid
not be hard to acquire.
Many men have their own peculiar
atyle of ahootlng and the coach ahouid
not attempt to modify thia atyla unlcaa
It la radically wrong. If a player makea
the team as a Junior, 1 know t hare not
time lo change hie atyle. but tf e freah
men has a atyle capable of Improve
ment, I have three yeara In which to
perfect h(e atyle In moat rasea, it le
e good rula to let well enough alone.
The point la that a ahnoter muat be
an all-around man—he muat not con
fine his effort to any particular kind
of technique, aa there ere many Ocea
nians when one particular type of ahot
in moat valuable.

5-5-3 AIR RATIO
0. K. WITH JAPAN
Tokio. Feb. 13.—Willingness of
Japan to accept the famous 5-5-3 ratio
for war aircraft was expressed here
today bv I'spt. Hisao Hozozi of the
Imperial general staff.
Japan is willing that construction
of war aircraft be limi'ed by the same
ratio that has applied to naval build
ing." Capt. Hozozi declared.
•Tn fact, such a limitation would
be most favorable tn Japan. Japan has
only 500 effective airships against 3.000
for the United States and twice that
number f<w France.
•'It takes no second thought to see
that Japan would gain materially by
the adoption of such a ratio.”
