In times past the negro boxer has known his place and been care ful to keep It. * A yyell behaved little man was Joe Gans. At Goldfield, day after day. Joe would slouch into the Hot gymnasium, go through his work, and 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 the giant. Peter Jackson. Sammy Langford, a clown at heart, sought to convulse his training camp crowds with iiis antics, but in addressing a white man Sam always held his hat in his hand. 'J’O.MORROW 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.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 9. 1912. Among those who may be men tioned at this time is our little German friend, Rudy Unholz, farmer of Denver, Colo., and 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 one Joe Sherman, of. Baltimore, Md„ at Willie Haack's club. Rudy didn't fancy the match particularly, but being anxious to get started, he took it on at 135 pounds. When 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, and. if anything, had a little shade on the heavy work. That made six straight victories for Rudy, which include the twen ty-round draw he had with Yoak um in Lae 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 cate 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.

Dode Birmingham, of the Naps, was a wonder football kicker when lie was in I Cornell. He did not play a lot. but as a . toe artist he was a regular Brlckley. in a class game, played through snow and ’ mud and with a slippery ball, he kicked three drop kicks, one 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.

Findlay S. Douglas, who came to Amer ica a dozer years ago and has been the noider of both the national and metropol itan titles, became imbued with the idea liiat he would like to visit St. Andrews, his old home course. This desire was accentuated by the fact that this fa course would be the 1 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 party fora six weeks’ trip, visiting St. Andrews and possibly several other ''ourses in England, Scotland or on the continent. There is to be no regularly organized attempt to get up a party with the ex pressed purpose <»f making a raid on British titles. Rather it is to be a num ber of well known golfers making a pleas urable trip together. The efforts on the part of American players in Britain have been attended with failure with the ex- Oor Marathcm Racer ■Bii'ii'iiwißßa—a biiiiw '■i'iiiiimi iurm r mini Bgeßasßam iwoi—i Has the 66 Right-of-Way” V -1 ■ xtJXi■ ■.. : - .>■ .-I ' z i I , *■ JL£ALik . s up.. * . - ' - - : . ■ ->EL' Wr jMWLfeLfegWw' WqaEvLp I Wfe S^ 1 . ® -’‘a ,4 ’ fll iiY'Wk.-; - —jhL . . “A:----- , a ■ TiSW • V L'r .

Fownes, Jr.. Howard W. Perrin. P. \V. Whittemore, Hubert C. Watson and John M. Ward, all of whom have expressed a keen desire for going. George Crump and A. W.

Dec. -.9. —Because Luther McCarthy is not sufficiently seasoned for a championship bout, Jim Flynn should win tomorrow's battle, according to Ad Wolgast. "I am playing Flynn to defeat Mc- Carty,” said Ail. ‘ McCarty is a prom ising young giant, but I figure that he is being sent after the heavyweight ti tle a year too soon. "Flynn is an old campaigner. His best showing lias been during the past eighteen months.
