S AN FRANCISCO, May 24.—It is
swid that one Theodore Roose
velt is going to Arizona to search
for a certain lost tribe. After see
ing the championship candidates,
Gunboat Smith and Jess Willard, ::i
action, the writer feels that Roose
velt or some one else should be com
missioned to hunt for descendants of
the lost tribe of heavy weights’
There is no shutting orte’s eyes,
to the fait that the big fellows of
to-day don’t begin to compare with
the heavies of “yesteryear” in any
department of the game. One doesn’t
■ have to g9 so far as to institute com
parisons between present day cham
pionship aspirants and tiie men who
weren't bought to be ip lint* for the’
title in former times.
Take the cases of such .boxers as
Kid McCoy and Joe Choynski. pugil
ists who were never troubled with
the championship bee. How long
would Gunboat Smith or Jess Wil
lard last with either of these? Or
how long would Gunboat or Jess keep
erect in front of clean hitting, hard I
thumping Peter Maher?
There will be another heavyweight I
bout at Calgary to-day, and then, if
present plans hold, there will be a
championship final, with Gunboat
Smith pitted against the winner of
the Luther McCarty-Arthur Pelky go
at Calgary.
Naturally the deciding contest will
create some interest, for, low grade
though they are. bidders for the blue
ribbon are the best r vYe have. Candor
compels the observ&ttdn that they
ore simply the best of a lot.
Thought Fight a Draw.
While the writer is among those
who are of the opinion that Willard
did every bit as well i\s Smith Tues
day night. I must own that the tall
Kansan was a good deal of a disap
pointment. We are led" to look for
hetter things after reading of the way
Jess acquitted himself with Luther
McCarty, Soldier Kearns and others.
It will be hal’d to make a top notch
man of Willard for the reason that
he h.as so few natural fighting qual
ities. True, his straight left is a de
pendable quantity, but this is largely
on account of his tremendous reach.
It wouid be pretty hard for Willard
to straighten his left without finding
something unless the other fellow
lambered. through ,.tb,e ropes when
he saw i: coming.
Willard has poor ideas of distance
and direction and he hits in a stilted
pokey way. This, may be, comes «,f
clinching his flsfts too tightly before
.ashing out.
He seems, too. to be deficient in
ring sense. Several times after chas
ing Guriboat'into a cornef and having
him off balance ho smiled fatuous'y
and stepped back. ‘Arid if looks count,
the Gunner was quite content to have
it that way.
Willard a Game Fellow.
Willard is a game fellow and ne
assimilates well, and it may be that
proper coaching will develop him t >
a stage where he can safely hold his
own with modern heavies. That is,
unless the breed suddenly improves
One thing to admire, in Jess is the
way a stinging clash arouses his
battle ire. In this respect he re-
iembles Tom Sharkey.
Gunboat Smith’s fight was an im
provement on some of his local ex
hibitions. He seemed to use his hea l
norr than he generally does, but
a-bother this was art instance of prese
nt initiative or the result of careful
caching the writer has no means
mowing Anvhovv there was a meth-
m! in the way Smith handled himself,
■vt n if his execution was faulty.

laying O different emblems were in so chaotic a condition? Take them right
down the line from the heavyweights to the feathers, and not a single
representative of any of the departments holds an undisputed right to
the title he covets. Nevbv before, has such a thing been apparent in
pugilism, and it does seem rather astounding to those who have never
given this angle a fleeting thought.
When we look back a few years and realize the hard-fought battles
and the strenuous routes the champions were compelled to travel over to
gain their positions, and then peek hurriedly over the present crop—well,
deliver us from expressing our candid opinion, for it would not look well
in print.
VC. C. Fownes. Jr., began pla
golf, in 1900 and therefore he has en
joyed more than a decade of excel
lent sport. His record is indeed an

ning the premier event in 1910 he
has many other notable victories to
his credit. He has held the West

amateur championship from 1904
clown through 1911, and this cham
pionship although limited in terri
tory, is of the highest eja^s, as is
shown by the fact that It has fur- I

Has Won Many Honors.
In 1910 and 1912 Fownes w-on the
Pennsylvania State championship and j
ho has really held at various times I
all the golfing honors of his State I
and many from elsewhere. In fact,
the only important title that has been i
denied him so far is the Western ‘
championship, where he has invar
iably encountered a bit of hard luck.
Pittsburg marks the Eastern bound
ary of the big Western- Golf Asso
ciation territory, and yet in spite of
the many fine players in the Smoky

the world will recognize as the tnp-mitcher of the l-lfi-pounders. Of all the
classes we are mentioning we recognize the claims of Ferns to the honor
to a greater extent than we would listen to anyone else claiming it.
r T*0 ALL intents and purposes, Luther McCarty is heavyweight champion.
A of course, he never won the title from the man who held it, and
probably still holds it. That's not particularly Luther's fault, because of
queer circumstances that transpired in the life of the recognized cham
pion. Still the fact remains that McCarty has a title he acquired without
winning it as tier the usual process (equired to annex the coveted emblem.
True, he stands ready to defend it. But—
Nevertheless, we'il fall in line and look upon Luther as the champion
under the circumstances. At the same time, much as we admire him, he
is No. 1 of the champions that acquired his honors without meeting the
predecessor of the high office in actual combat.
* * *
T HEN we drop to the middleweights. Here's where we laugh long and
loud, for if there is a single one in the hunch entitled to be crowned
champion we are ready to be convinced. Stanley Ketchel. whose sudden
death left the question of champion an open one. could have taken the
whole lot of the present crap, beginning with Klaus and including Mc-
Goortv, Papke and the whole flock, and beaten them to a jelly all on the
same night, ana in the same ring, without even half trying. So here s a
class without a representative in the exclusive class. Klaus, who claims
the title, is therefore labeled No. 2 of the champions who failed to battle
a titleholder for the honor.
P 'T'HE welterweights are in the same disturbed condition. Jimmy

Fownes plays a very thoughtful
game of golf. Its high quality can
be realized by the fact that he has
been national champion. Further-
morp. in a match with II H. Hilton championship was won by the punch of the othfr fellow instead of his

awarded the honors to Ritchie.
in this same class we have two other good boys—Packey McFarland
and Jack Britton. McFarland, however, can’t possibly make the weight,
so that lets him out. Ritchie beat Britton when they met on a former
occasion And. say, why not take Freddie Welsh into consideration?
Thinking it over, his claims are the very best. He defeated MaJt Wells
for the English championship and beat Willie Ritchie the only time he
met him (that w-as before Ritchie met Wolgast.) But. again we are con
fronted with the condition that the champion is not one of that undis

In the second round.

Gulls Have Grand Pitcher in Hogg

By Percy It. Whiting.
T HK imstiiuing this afternoon at the celebrated bull park of the well
known Georgia Railway and Power Company, aaid park yclept
Ponce DeLeon, will settle the question of whether or not a mediocre
club can beat a Rood club with pitching alone.
' And lest somebody arise to ask which Is the “good” dub, we state
without hesitation that It is the Atlanta delegation ami add positively
that the Gull team ought to be a mediocre aggregation, considered on a
man-by-man basis.
And before we forget it, the contest this afternoon will Is* called hi

TO EVERTING to the Gulls and their claims on distinction, we can only
say that we can't see them at all. It is a good club. But is it a
great club?
We don’t even pause for an answer.
You can hand Mike Finn a lot of credit for the way the Gulls have
been winning. He has gathered together a club that has balance. It
hasn’t a strong spot in fielding, but it hasn’t h weak one. It is not a great
hitting club, hut it has a great slugger in i>. Robertson, and a moderately
reliable one in Jacobson. The rest of it must l>e team play, or maybe some
thing even more intangible than that a winning spirit, maybe; which is
a hard thing to define but a useful one to have.
H * «
A REALLY great performer on the club Is Bradley Hogg, the ex-Mercer I upon the result of his trip when he

hall Friday. Though the Crackers acquired six hits, they never came with
in miles of scoring. Hogg walked Just one man, struck out but one and
looked like reaily money and lots of it all the way.
It takes a pretty good pitcher to hold the Crackers safe. They arc
deadly slnggers. Any pitcher who can shut them out is a big leaguer at
heart — or mighty lucky. And there was no luck about Hogg’s work.
How In the mischief it happened that the Braves ever let go of Hogg
is a mystery. He looks more like a pitcher than any five men of George
Stallings’ staff rolled into one.
To those who remember Hogg In his college days, Ills huge size proved
a jolt. He is a whale now, while in his college days he seemed h man of
hardly more than average size. To-day he has the ideal size and weight
for a great pitcher. He will be a big man in the big leagues some dav.
* * *
' I 'HANKS arc hereby* expressed to Bill Hart for his efforts to hurry along
A Friday’s game. Bill kept right on the trail of the players, got them
up to the plate in a hurry and managed to run the game off in less than
an hour and three-quarters- which was especially appreciated, owing to
the fact that the day was awfully cold and raw.

saddle the blame for losing the last Memphis game largely on the shoulders

T'HE point that. "Fan” sefnis to have overlooked is that before Agler
