You Really Can't Blame Mutt and Jeff for This

ENVER, Aug. 30.—The muddled
condition of the middlrweight
dtvlsion regarding the rham-
pionshlp la in a measure attributed
to the ten-round route. It is claimed
that the distance la too short to pro
duce a real champlop. That twenty
rounds are required for this, and that
if the longer Journey were adopted
we would have a recognized cham
pion in that class. All of which
sounds reasonable
Boxers of to-da\ adapt themselves
to a short stay within the ropes To
make this a profitable thing they
school themselves to box Just enough
to enable them to “stall" along by
clinching and holding to last for ten
rounds. Then, as a rule, the average
referee pronounces the bout a “draw
Ths relation of the class regarding
the championship remain* the same.
^Always five or six contenders with
claim* and not a single one with cre
dentials that entitles him to the pre
mier honors.

IN the days of finish fights or in the
1 twenty-round arena there seldom
was a doubt as to who was the real
leader of any division. Men who
fought during the period when di*
putes were staged “on the turf" never
left the ring until a winner and a
loser had been established. Then no
arguments as to the verdict were dl-
cusaed, because we might say "The
bouts refereed them.aelves.” and th*
only use for the third man in the ring
at that time was to guard against
transgressions of the code and to an
nounce punishment when a violation
or breach of the rules was commit
ted. Then when the fatal ten seconds
were tolled as a matter of complying
with the conditions that gorerned the
battle, the referee's chief duty was
to announce the result.

man had emerged from a
of this kind against the
claimants of honors of this or that
division he was the recognized cham.
pion and hi» title was never ques
tioned. Not so now. and the middle
weight division lends itself best to
the Illustration. Dillon. Klaus, dab
by. Papke. McGoorty and several
others all lay claim to championship.
Only one of them can be the leader,
and yet how are you going to dls
pute their contentions after listening
to the argument they advance in
making the claim Ten rounds, ns a
rule, Is too brief a space to decide
a real winner between this lot They
all know the game, and they all know
how- to weather rough seas for a short
time. But make these same chaps
battle it out between themselves over
the marathon route, and we’ll no*
be long in learning which of the group
is entitled to recognition.

IN the lightweight division there
1 neetriM to bo a better understand
ing and at the same time we call at
tention to the fact that Nelson de
feated Oans in a twenty-round bat
tle, Wolgasn defeated Nelson In prac
tically a finish fight, as it was in the
fortieth round that the late Ed Smith
called an end to hostilities. Willie
Ritchie won from Wolgast in what
was scheduled as a twenty-round af
fair. This same Ritchie defended the
title againft Joe Rivers in a contest
of the same length. But somehow or
other the middles, seven times out of
ten. engage in ten-round bouts, and
as previously stated, the distance is
too short to bring about any decisive
results.

AL BROWN SWIMS FROM
BATTERY TO SANDY HOOK
NEW YORK, Aug. 29.—A1 Brown,
commander of the Flushing Bay di
vision of the American Life Saving
Society, to-day Is being showered
with congratulations for having ac
complished what 100 other men have
failed to do—the 25-mile swim from
Battery Park to Sandy Hook.
Brown made the swim yesterday,
after he had previously made four
unsuccessful attempts. For more
than a score of years swimmers have
attempted the feat, but always were
balked by the shifting of the tide.
FRENCH GOLF CHAMP HERE.
NEW YORK. Aug 29,—Louis Tel-
liere, the French golfing champion,
arrived here from France and will at
once go to Brookline, Mass., to com
pete In the open golf tournament
there.
DREW TO ENTER BROWN.
PROVIDENCE, R. I., Aug 29,—It
was announced here to-day that
Howard Drew, negro sprinter, will
enter Brown University this fall. The
Springfield, Mass. High School boy
has successfully passed the entrance
examinations.
CALL FOR PENNSY PLAYERS.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug 29—The
Pennsylvania football captain has
sent out a call for candidates to re
port for practice on September 15. A
big squad is expected to turn out this
year, and Pennsylvania's football
chances seem better than for several
years.

C HICAGO, Aug. 29.—Mr. Warren
Wood, our brilliant Western
amateur champion, will not en
ter the National this year. The an
nouncement comeH as a nurprise to
his hundreds of admirers and to hi*
personal friends, and It means a dis
tinct lessening of the West’s chance
to bring home the championship. We
had expected much of Warren this
year, and his absence from the big
competition at Garden City Is a
grievou* disappointment to us. It
weakens the Chicago delegation to a
regrettable extent, but we admire the
courage with which Warren has put
aside the most fascinating pleasure
In the world for the good of his busi
ness
This is the busy season of the year
with him. During the week of the
tournament Wurren will do doubt In
dulge in occasional surreptitious
dreams of a beautiful golf course and
trailing galleries and little white balls
In arrowy flight through the air or
running swiftly over velvety greens
to the waiting hole. He will probably
hear, in Imagination, the clapping of
hands, the rustling movement of the
heart of the golfer. Y$t Warren, at
th, t«*j, of his game, has the courage
to forego all the pleasure of compe
tition that he knows so well and to
devote himself to business. He has
had a very liberal vacation this year,
a month in the Northwest and a week
for the Western, and has put tempta
tion aside and will work his hardest
during that long first week of Sep
tember.
But we. the Chicago players, who
are going to Garden City. In spite of
our admiration for Ills conduct, are
lamenting. We had counted upon
Warren to make a good fight, and
we are a rather small band to at
tack the numerous and valiant East.
Perhaps other Western cities will
come to our rescue. I, being a burnt
child, am not rushing overconfidently
into the fire.
Many other Chicago players have
deserted golf for business this year.
There Is Albert Seckel. devoted to
business since his marriage, and D.
E. Sawyer, equally devoted to money
making Just before he enters the
strange land of matrimony.
Army and Navy May
Clash After All
ANNAPOLIS, MD.. Aug 29.—Navy
officials to-day took steps Intended
to have the Army team cancel its
scheduled game on November 29 with
the Carlisle Indians and play the
Navy football squad instead. The ac
tion of the Army officials in schedul
ing a game with the Indians on the
day set for the classic Army-Navy
game, following the deadlock over the
field where the Army-Navy game
should be played, has come as a shock
to the Navy officials.
The Navy to-day, it was said, urged
upon its athletic board to accede to
the Army’s demands that the annual
game be played on the Polo Grounds,
New York, feeling certain that if this
concession is not made nothing will
Induce the Army to cancel its game
with Carlisle.
The Navy board wanted the game
played this year In Franklin Field,
Philadelphia, as in previous years.
The Army claimed the field was too
small to accommodate the crowd that
wanted to attend.
