More than a double decade ago three heavyweights hogged the headlines Jess Wil-lard, Fred Fulton and Bill Brennan.

BEACHES MAY UNVEIL NEW WALL CHAMPS Annual Tournaments On Far-Flung Ocean Courts Await Bell By MAX LOOAW It's no improvised process that produces the stars in A.

A. U. handball. Sometimes the. road to glory is long and tedious.

Very infrequently do champs blossom over rught. Joe Garber, Jack London and Jack Seaman were exceptions to both rules, winning titles with little or no background. On the other hand the unfruling ot such kingpins as Harry Mlchitsch, Cy Alexander, Ben Yedlin, Dave Margolis, George Baskln and Harry Goldstein required a step-by-step system in the club and beach tournaments. They represent the schooling plan that produces the general run of titlists. Answer Is Channel Tourney With outdoor beach clubs announcing individual tournaments, the question is, "who will emerge this year alongside of or supplanting the ruling group?" However, it takes men of exceptional caliber to crash through the click of A.

A. U. monarchs who manager, it seems, to hold on to the top for periods of six or seven years. 127 Athletes Honored by St. Augustine's Rev.

Brother Patrick Distributes Letters, Certificates, Numerals One hundred and 27 students of St. High School were honored at the annual athletic awards assembly today before the student body. The principal, the In Queens where handball inter- est is increasing each year, they're i asking, "Will we get another when Tunney won the second half of their double-header in Chicago a year later. But, as aforementioned, all this was long ago. Now there's another war on Just as there was when Willard, Fulton and Brennan were hogging the headlines.

And there are three heavyweights now on top Joe Louis, Tony Galento and Max Baer. Louis stands out over the division, towers over' Galento and Baer. He towers over them on victories over both, knockout victories that were decisive enough to hoot down any demand for return engagements. Baer swooned away before Louis. Galento put up as much fight as a roly-poly body could offer but finally sagged to the canvas, badly beaten and horribly mangled.

Now Galento and Baer are going at it, a week from tonight. The winner will be rewarded with another chance at Louis. Of course, if the winner has the brains of a half-wit goose he'll pass up the reward. For Louis now looks better than ever. He has failed the prophets in refusing to eat himself out of the championship as predicted by them two years ago.

He seems to come in lighter on the scales for every fight. He still has dynamite in both fists. He's still sudden death to any opponent who leaves a careless chin unprotected for the fraction of a second. Of course, the Galcnto-Baer circus should be something to see, something worth even a trip to Jersey City. But a Louis encasement with the Galento-Baer winner should be something to avoid, something to bring on the shudders at the very thought of it.

In fact the thought of any heavyweight of the present crop in there with Louis is enough to make the average ringsider Jitter-. The only hope seems to lie In the possibility of history re-peting, the hope of another young unknown applying with hat in hand and a keen desire to learn the niceties of pugilistic conversation before a bout. There's a million-dollar spot wide open right now for the right young man. Then, of a sudden, a young unknown applied, hat in hand. He was sent against Brennan, the Idea being to warm up William for a Joust with Fulton to teat up a challenger for Willard.

Just before the engagement Brennan said to the young unknown, "I'd like to carry you, kid, but I can't. There's that shot at Willard waiting and I've got to protect it. I'm sorry, but you understand, kid." Well, the young unknown didn't spem to grasp the idea. With the first smack of the bout he floored Brennan. In fact, he smacked him out in six rounds.

In addition to the victory the young unknown learned something from the Brennan conversation. He discovered that it was an old Eastern custom to say a few words to his opponent before the bell. So he was matched with Fulton taking Brennan's place and he looked in on Fred in his dressing room on the way to the ring. "Let's shake hands here," he said. "It'll save time when we get in there." It did, too.

Fulton lasted 18 seconds. If the young unknown hadn't stopped by Fulton's dressing room on the way to the ring the bout might have dragged out over more than 20 seconds. Well, that was a double decade ago and the young unknown was Jack Dempsey. Down through the years since Gene Tunney took the title away from him we have had several "second Demp-seys." There was Schmeling one year. Max Baer another.

None of them, of course, were "second Dempseys." They couldn't fight like Dempsey. They couldn't punch like Dempsey. In fact, none of them could have carried Dempsey's old crimson sweater in a training camp. And after Dempsey came Tunney, a cool, sharp, calculating rlngman as deadly in his deliberate way as Dempsey was destructive In his more spectacular style. Tunney, of course, caught Dempsey on the way down.

The old champ had slid over his peak when Gene speared the title on his vicious left jab and right cross down in Philadelphia on that rain-soaked September night in 1926. And Dempsey was still skidding Michtisch or Hal Hanft?" The solution will probably lie again in the Broad Channel singles events, which served as Incubators for both Hanft and Michitsch, first bor-oughites to hit the A. A. U. pin phia, July 3, with the climax in New York July 7.

Oliver tied Little and Gene Sarazen for the National Opew lead only to be disqualified. Both Lawson and Gene insisted that Ed be permitted to play off the tie, but the disqualification stuck. As a sporting gesture, Little asked that Oliver be selected as his partner on the tour.
