O. •{••4* +•+ 4»#4* -(-•-I* +••}• Fans Like Fighter With a Wallop Bv Ed. W. Smith. C hicago, ill.. May 3.—one must admire the clever ringster who gets away with the pretty stuff and does the job up beautifully, but when one gets right down to cases it’s the partv whose one mighty wal lop stretches the foe out on hi.v back for the full count who becomes king in a night, and stays king as long as the punch is in good working or der. In other word*, while the clever fellow may even become champion, the walloper who continually, displays the K. O. swat is first in the hearts of his <'ountrynien. even though he may never become a champion. The cas?e of Johnny Kilbane is a good one in point. Dots and lots of fans would go to see Johnny and come away marveling at his wonderful footwork, his infallible judgment of distance and other technical points. But they would talk longer and rave louder over one of Matty McCue’s knockouts. Sullivan a Hero. Back in the days of long ago when Mr. Sullivan, of Boston, discovered that he couid chib them into som nolence better wHfl a five-ounce glove wrapped tightly around his Milesian fist than he could with the bare digit, he became one of the world’s greai- esi, or at least one of the world's most admired men. Those who didn't openly admire the first Queensberry champion at !eas>t did so secretly, for he was a red-blooded fellow with the wallop. And wallopers ever since have commanded first call in the at tention of the races. Clever (’orbett wav never exactly an idol, though one of the world's greatest boxers. His successor, Fitxsimmons. who knocked 'em dead with one punch, was a huge idol, despite his foreign origin, and Jeffries, too, because of the weight of his blow, was looked upon as in vincible for years. Britt Defeated Corbett. Bo it has been in other clases. Ter ry M( Govern was the scream of the nation for years and years, though he never really attained any particular championship. He was whipped by another puncher, who 1n turn fell be fore speed and cleverness. But the men who whipped Young Corbett never got the glad acclaim from the fans that greeted either Corbett 01 McGovern when they appeared in the squared arena. The ideal fighter in the eyes of the general or average fight fan is the chap who combines skill and force, a man of the Joe Gans or the Stanley Ketehel or the Boh Fitzsimmons type. This type is mighty rare, for the fighter of to day is there to gather the sheke.s and thinks more of dodging a black ened eye or a bruised mouth than he doe? of knocking an opponent out Naughton'* Judgment Good. Perhaps Refere** Eylon may have some of these ideas in mind when he called that Los Angeles scrap be tween Kilbane and Dundee a draw the other night. From all accounts Kilbane got more than a shade the worst of that verdict, though our old side-kick, Bill Naughton. never men tions it as being a wrong verdiet- and vve bank more than a lltlo on Uncle Bill’s judgment. So perhaps it was all right after all and that Kilbane didn’t really beat the hardy little Italian from New York Kil bane is a wonderful boxer, but be haven’t the mule-like swat that makes for public idolatry. McCue Didn’t Stop' Williams. Matty McCue didn't make It ten straight knockouts when he met Posey Williams in Milwaukee the other night in a six-round bout. Posey went in there to stay, and stay he did. \ boxer who is trying to knock out a man who is strictly on the defensive has little chance, for he gets few openings and the other fellow is de voting every infant of bis time to dodging that K. O. punch that he knows is coming over. You must get a man to open up if you would knock him out, and this evidently Matty failed to accomplish. Matty vs. O’Connell. Jeff O'Connell, the little Briton, who Is Matty’s next serious opponent, is not going to lack for backing when he faces the Racine star. Jim Mc Nulty, of the West Side, is a staunch friend of Jeff and say* that if Jeff trains properly for the contest he will wager $],00O that he gets the popular verdict in ten rounds. Joe D'Andrea. also is a supporter of the O'Connell end on this occasion.

May 3.—It is the fear of the terrible toe hold that for eign wrestlers? have that defeats them before they get Into the ring with Frank Gotch. This at least is the opinion of Gotch himself, express ed when lie was In the city the other day and discussed his recent bout in Kansas City with George Lurich, the Russian. This was described by the Kansas City sport writers as an easy thing for the Humboldt man. they claiming that Lurich did not show anywhere near as well against the champion as he did against some of the lesser lights that he tackled there in pre vious matches. That was perfectly natural, for a champion is supposed to show supe riority over all of them. But Gotch *ias liis own explanation of the situa tion, that developed just before and immediately sftcr Lurich faced him in the ring. Hold Talk of Europe. "You can net an you’ve got in the world that this toe hold of mine—of course other wrestlers use it, but it generally has been credited to me as being something of my own invention -has been the talk of Europe ever since I defeated Haekenschmidt the first time." Gotch said. “Remember i hat I have been over there and know just how they fed about it. "Of course it gets noised around, for wrestlers are no different from any other kind of people, and do a lot of gossiping among themselves. 1 heard some of this while i was over there and know that the Europeans look upon me as being some sort of a terrible animal and a bone crusher. “Naturally this gossip goes from one to another, and the stories do not lose anything by repetition. Tliev think over there that all I do is to get the toe hold, or try to get it. all the time I am wrestling Seldom Uses Toe Grip, "As a matter of fact, 1 have used it but. seldom, and do not know at all tha.t 1 «*ver won a fall with it in an important match. Wrestlers over here know that. 1 use it more for a feint than anything else. “It is useful for that, especially when an opponent has his legs tightly clamped together. Well, at any rate, when Lurich was preparing for the ring lie was talking excitedly 1n Ger man to his handlers, and the whole gist of the conversation wa.s on tlie toe hold. “When finally we ..were ready to begin and started for tin* ring I no ticed that he was as white as chalk, and looked about as nervous as any man f ever saw. This didn’t wear off at all after we got started, and he kept jerking his feet and legs away from me in a horrified manner every time I reached for him. "1 knew- what he was thinking of and naturally kept him worried by feinting at him. This made him for get all that he seemed to know about ordinary wrestling and naturally made him an easy mark. “Hack” Feared Clutch. "Haekenschmidt was really afraid of the same thing, and the constant brooding over the toe hold in advance of a match witli me beats all of them. You see, the hold hits the knee more than any other place, as the leverage is placed right there And water on the knee is an athlete's most hideous nlgh.tmare. Once you get that you are out of business for all time " It may be mentioned right here that George Haekenschmidt was ptjt com pletely out of business through the injury lie suffered to Ills knee while training for the second Gotch bout. It is understood on this side that Haekenschmidt has had several oper ations to relieve the injury, but that they have been unsuccessful. Jn consequence the orute mighty Russian is unable to show with even a posing act. It is said that his ca reer is completely at an end, BASEBALL Diamond News and Gossip When Weaver, of the White Sox, batH against a right-hand pitcher, he works left-handed.

GULF IS URGED FI PREACHERS By “< think" Evans. N OT long ago 1 received a letter from a friend who lives in a little town in Michigan. He aekod me to select some golf dubs and he particularly desired me to use , my very best judgment in -the mattei of selection. He explained that the clubs were not for himself, but for a clergyman and he thought that if the clubs were the best possible the preacher would be spared the provocation that so frequently leads the average golfer to do and say very unclerical things?. It is perhaps hardly necessary to say that I was only pleased to use the utmost pains in choosing clubs for the reverend gentleman, from the early beginning of my own game I have always had a particularly kindly feeling for men of his profes sion. and ! have always’believed that golf is the one game that is certain ly adapted to their needs. It cer tainly would prove of great benefit to the health and happiness of over worked, earnest and discontented priests and preachers. Yesterday’s Results. Philadelphia t. New York 3.
