In times past the negro boxer has known his place and been care ful to keep it. A well behaved little man was Joe Gans. At Goldfield, day after day. Joe would slouch into the het gymnasium, go through his work, anil leave without having looked at his audience. Unless he was spoken to first, Gans was a mute while among white men. The same can be said for little George Dixon and rhe giant, Peter Jackson. Sammy Langford, a clown at heart, sought to convulse his training camp crowds with his antics, but in addressing a white man Sam always held his hat in his hand. • » « TOMORROW night we have the old warrior, Jim Flynn, boxing" Luther McCarty at Los Angeles. Flynn has been showing in Los Angeles since the days of Noah. During the last two years he has developed the "punch," and this fact has given him a second lease on pugilistic life. McCarty was unknown until he blazed into the columns of the sport pages by knocking out both Carl Morris and Al Kaufman. It wasn’t the caliber of the men he whipped so much as the ease with which the Nebraska heavy dropped his victims that brought him into prominence. Al Balzer, the New Yorker, is to meet the winner. • V • C URELY this is the season for the festive come-back among the boxers. The last month has shown that there is such a thing after all.

They say that Joe Me- Ginnity had a hunch Prince could win from certain teams and couldn't win from others. And on that system he worked him sore in both body and mind. Harry Smith, the new manager, will take a shot at it. and believ ehseacn hDtiYz t at it, and believes he can make a win ner of “the Prince.” No man has proved more anxious to prove an alibi on the charge of desiring to buy the Phillies than Governor Tener. “No more chance than a billygoat," or words to that effect, says the gov.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 9. 1912. Among those who may be men tioned at this time is our little German friend. Dui’.y Unholz, farmer of Denver. Colo., mid at one time one of the best adver tised fighters in the business. Thanksgiving day Rudy was in veigled into going to Memphis. Tenn., to battle ore Joe Sehrman, of Baltimore. Mil., at Willie Haack’s chib. Rudy didn’t 1 mcy the match particularly, but being anxious to get started, he took it on at 135 pounds. Whin he got to Memphis he found it was to be 138 pounds instead. When it came time to weigh in. Sherman was invisible and never did show up. He admit ted to 142, but looked all of 148. Unholz took him on unhesitatingly and fought so valiantly that he got a draw, anil, if anything, had «a little shade on the heavy work. That made six straight victories tor Rudy, which include the twen ty-round draw he had with Yoak um in Las Vegas, N. M., the night before the Johnson-Flynn battle, which contest Rudy really won, but got no better than a draw. He knocked out a tough one in Vic tor, Colo., Labor day and thinks he has done enough to demonstrate that he is a real come-back. There is no reason now why the promoters shouldn’t take care of Unholz. He is a sincere, honest little fellow who gives his very best efforts at all times. The game would be vastly better off if some of the knockers took cognizance of him and tried to model themselves accordingly. A Nelson-Unholz mill here in At lanta might prove mighty inter esting. \\ est and will In a day or two complete the purchase of an interest in the Tacoma team. « * * Frank Chance says he is absolutely through with baseball. But then, of course, a ball player is likely to say anything in an off-season. Larry Doyl? will coach the Sletun Hall team for a spell next spring. ♦ * * Ban Johnson was a sporting writer once and was one of the few experts who really saw the Sullivan-Kilrain light. » * ♦ Dode Birmingham, of the Naps, was a wonddr football kicker when he was in Cornell. He did not play a lot, but as a toe artist he was a regular Brickley. In a class gamp, played through snow and mud and with a slippery ball, he kicked three drop kicks, ontf from the 50-vard line. • * * hen Bobby Byrne, former Southern leaguer, with Pittsburg, split a telegraph pole with his automobile the other day it was supposed that he escaped with only a few scratches. Later internal in juries made their presence felt and Byrne may never play baseball again. And then he may. Here’s hoping. ♦ ♦ ♦ The only players Charley Frank has to trade are Spencer, Knaupp, Bunting, Swann and Haigh. ■ • • The Baltimore team will train at Fay etteville, N.

(Advt.) AMERICANS MAY PLAY IM BRITISH GOLF TOURNEY NEW YORK. Dec. 9. It is likely that several American amateur golfers will visit England next spring t<» attend the British amateur’ championship over the St. Andrews course. Findlay S. Douglas, who came to Amer ica a dozen years ago and has been the bolder of both the national and metropol itan titles, became imbued with the idea that he would like to vis.'i > Andrews, his old home couise. This desire was accentuated by the fact that this fa mous course would be the scene of the British championship. Douglas then conceived the idea of asking several friends to accompany him. When he mentioned the matter they became en thusiastic* and expressed a desire to make up a congenial par ty fpr a six weeks’ trip, visiting St. Andrews and possibly several other courses in England. Scot land or on the continent. There is to be no regularly organized attempt to get up a party with the ex pressed purpose of making a raid on British titles. Rather it is to be 4 num ber of well known golfers making a pleas ure ble trip together.
