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 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 4 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 his antics, but in addressing a white man Sam always held his hat in his hand. yOMGRRoAV 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 Palzer. the New Yorker, is to meet the winner. • » • gLRELY 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.

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. Aid., 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 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. West 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.

Andrew’s course. Findlay S. Douglas, who came to Amer ica a dozer years ag<. and has been the holder of both the national and metropol itan titles, became imbued with the idea that he would like to visit St. Andrews, his old home course. This desire was accentuated by the fact that this fa course Would he 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 (‘ongenial party fora six weeks’ trip, visiting St. Xndrews and possible several other courses in England. Scotland or on the continent. There is to be no regularly organized attempt to get up a imrty with the ex pressed purpose of making a raid on British titles.
