PAPKE fiETS CARPENTIER; MTiOORTV T# FOLLOW
By Ed. W. Smith.
CHICAGO. May 25.—8i11y Pap
k“ has grabbed off the rich
est boxing plum in France at
the present time. He has secured a
match there with Georges Carpen
tier, sensation of all Europe. Al
Lfppe, who is now handling the af
fairs of the Kewanee man. secured
the match by cable. Lippe being
widely known on the other side
because of the several trips he took
there while managing Harry Lewis.
The contest, which should be one
of the best decided in Europe this
season, will take place June 30, ac
cording to the advices Lippe has
received, Papke and his new man
ager will sail for the other side
todaj- on the Olympic, the club
having already furnished two first
class tickets and expense money.
Papke Has a Barf Hand.
Papke was beginning to show in
earnest In New York that he could
“come back” when his right hand
collided with the hard skull of an
opponent and that useful member

JUNE 5 SHRINERS DAY
AT PONCE DeLEON PARK
June 5 will be Shriners’ day at Ponce
DeLeon ball park.
The Shriners of the state will be in
session here that day and will come to
the ball park in a body some 1,500
strong.
An effort will be made to give the
whole affair a Masonic tinge. An um
pire who is a Mason will be secured,
and Tommy Atkins, a Mason, will pitch
for Atlanta. John A. Hynds. illustri
ous potentate, will pitch the first ball.
After the game the Shriners will have
a barbecue in the old Ponce DeLeon
amusement park.
Kewanee Man kV/// Sa/7 for Paris Today
went entirely out of commission.
As a result Lippe had to cancel
several excellent dates that he had
in the East for the Illinois fighter
and arrange to saii at once. It
will take at least three we«ks for
the bruised weapon to get back into
good shape.
This Carpentier battle is the real
plum on the other side because
Georges is the big card over there
and is capable now of drawing the
heaviest kind of houses. That's
why' Lippe turned down an offer of
J 2.500 and accepted instead 25 per
cent of the house and exnenses.
Illinois Man Confident,
No mention is made of the w eight
agreement, but it probably will be
160 pounds several hours before the
contest begins, which is the Euro
pean standard of measuring mid
dleweights.
Papke is firm in the belief that
he has a grand chance with the
('lever Frenchman and thinks he
can get in the finest of condition
oxer there. He is no stranger to
the country, having trained there
for several contests, although he
did not have very good luck in
getting on during his previous
visit. •
McGoerty to Dublin,
There is little doubt now that
Eddie McGoorty will trail Papke
to Europe for the purpose of get
ting a shot a" the winner. As soon
as the Oshkosh man has finished
“KID” WILDER WILL PITCH
FOR W. & L. NEXT SEASON
"Kid" Wilder. Georgia's wonderful
southpaw of this season, will go to
Washington and Lee university next
fall and will pitch next spring for the
W. * L. club.
Wilder was declared ineligible this
spring by the S. I. A. A. for playing
professional ball. At the time it was
claimed that there was only one offense,
charged against him and that he would
be reinstated and used again by Georgia
next spring.
It now develops that Wilder, who has
been forced to work his way through
school and college, has been receiving
money for playing ball off and on for
several years and for this reason sees
no chance of getting back in the good
graces of the S. I. A. A. At Washing
ton and Lee there are no eligibility re-,
quirements and Wilder can play in spite
of his professionalism.
BRADY HERE ONI MONDAY;
WILL BE PITCHED SOON
Pitcher Brady, the man secured by
the Crackers from the Boston Nation
als. has wired baseball headquarters
that he will be here in time for Mon
day’s game.
It is likely that Brady will get on
immediate tryout, for Manager Hemp
hill will soon be forced to make a de
cision about his twirling staff, and he
will want to ascertain right away what
Brady has to offer.
MARQUARD OUT TO~SET
NEW PITCHING RECORD
NEW YORK, May 25.—With the nine
consecutive victories behind him. Pitch,
er Rube Marouard. the "SII,OOO beauty"
of the New York Giants, expects to set
a new record for games won during the
1912 baseball season. Marquard has
won every game he pitched during the
first six weeks of the season. He hopes
to oust Christy Mathewson from the
high niche which he holds in the base
ball hall of fame.
white hope McCarthy
KNOCKS OUT ANOTHER
SPRINGFIELD. MO.. May 25.—Lu
ther McCarthy, the young Missouri
giant who aspires to tight Jack John
son for the championship, has added
another knockout to his string. He
put Jack Reed, of Toledo, Ohio, asleep
in the third round here last night.
McCarthy recently knocked out Carl
Morris.
STEINFELDT LASTS BUT
ONE DAY WITH LOOKOUTS
CHATTANOOGA, TENN.. June 25.
Harry Steinfeldt. ex-Cub, lingered just i
one day as a member of the Chatta- i
nooga team. i
Rill Smith got him out just once. ;
worked him. saw that fils arm was all i
gone and returned him forthwith. <
up his engagements in this coun
try, which include contests with
Bob Moha next week, somebody
near Chicago a little later and
probably Mike Gibbons in New’
York, he will clinch arrangements
to go to Ireland with his manager,
Marty Forkins.
The purpose of this trip will be
to accept the offer made by Mar
tin Fitzgerald to box either Car
pentier or some other good man in
August during the big Dublin horse
show. Richard Croker, the former
Tammany boss, who now lives in
Dublin, is a stanch admirer of Mc-
Gqorty and has personally asked
that he return to Ireland and ac
cept the terms offered him for tui
match.
Irish Fans Like Him.
If Carpentier beats Panke and it
is found impossible tn get him off
his native heath, some other good
man will be secured for McGoorty.
The latter is immensely popular
in Ireland because of the fine
showings he always made there, to
say nothing of his breeding, and
there are many who believe he is
today the greatest boxer of any' of
them.
In the meantime McGoorty sa.va
he would be delighted to be the
first American boxer to get e. crack
at Bombardier Wells, the English
heavyweight champion, who is now
in this country. McGoorty tried to
get on with him while in England
some months ago. but failed.
THREE VANDY PLAYERS

NASHVILLE, TENN. May 25-
Three members of the Vanderbilt uni
versity baseball team, champions of the
South, have received offers to play pro
fessional ball with major league team...
They are Louis Hardage, left fielder:

Collins, pitcher.
Hardage lias received a flattering of
fer fiom tin- St. Louis Nationals, Col
lins from the Washington Americans
and Morrison from the New York
Americans. None of the offers will be
accepted this year, since Morrison is
the only one of the three to finish col
lege and expects to teach. Hardage
and Collins may play professional ball
after next year, however.

L. B. Laudermilk. known familiarly
as "Louie," has reported to the Mobile
club.
Laudermilk comes from the Cardi
nals, where ho worked with no great
success last year.
