Jimmy Duffy, the Buffalo lightweight,
s disputing Charley White's right to
represent the ('nited States against
Freddie Welsh when the latter arrives
on these shores. Duffy points to the
fact that he has already met Welsh
twice, clalmng a Jdraw with Freddle
once when he was a youngster and
beating him in an efght-round go in 8t
Louis, where Referee Sharp gave him
the decision over the Englishman.

Bert Finch, Duffy's manager, states
that he will bet any part of §lO.OOO his
man can knock Welsh out, in Fngland

they may happen to meet,

Finch's letter states that Duffy Is

“Jack Feneley, on bhehalf of his sport

of the gate receipts to Tommy Burns

Burns reguested that the offer he left
over until his return from Melbourne,
on the 16th instant McVey is very
anxious to hox Burns, and has asked
Jack Feneley to referee the match,”

Jack Johnson is having a merry time
these days at the expense of the pro

perfectly willing to fight, but his terms
are prohibitive

within a few months Here's a fine
chance for Rilly Brady to plck a winner
and get away with«it, as Wells has yet
to beat a good second-rater.

“Smith Knocked Out in Fourth’
‘Down 14 Seconds'—Timekeeper
Speclal Cable to The Atlanta Qoor&l.n.
ONDON, July 18.—J. T. ulls,
I official timekeeper of the Car
pentier-Smith fight, declared
to-day that Smith was knocked out
by the Frenchman In the fourth
round
“Smith was down for fourteen sec
onds in the fourth round,” said Hulls
“l was most eareful In taking the
time, and after the bell rang [ called
to Corrl and said, ‘That man is out.'
To my surprise, Corri overruled my
decision and ordered that the contest
be resumed after the usual interval
of rest at the end of the round. He
Insisted that Smith had not been
knocked out, in spite of my protest.”
C ARPENTIER will next defend his
title of “white heavywelght cham
plon of the world” agalnst Bombar
dler Wells, the British champion, in
the same ring where Smith met de
feat Thursday. Detalls of the match,
which was clinched to-glay, will be
arranged next week. As yet no date
has been set for the match, which
will be at the regulation distance of
twenty rounds.
Dick Burge, who is promoting the
match, is certain that it will attract a
huge house, despite the fact that Car
pentier has already twice defeated
the Bombardier, who is considered
outclassed by the Frenchman, in the
opinfon of the fight experts,
The English public, however, de
lights to see their champion Aght,
and the outcome of the battle seems
of little importance to them.
CARPE?\'TIER left for home last
night, none the worse for his
fight against Smith. He relterated
the statement given out after the
fight to the effect that, while Smith is
the hardest puncher he has ever met,
he ls confident that he can beat him
if they meet again. Carpentler says
he {s perfectly willing to take on the
American heavywelght i{f some pro
moter will offer a purse,

JAGK JOHNSON
ABOUT THROUGH
AS A CHAMPION
So Says George Considine, Back
From Title Fight—Bob Ver
non Thinks Otherwise.
EW YORK, July 18.—George
N C‘onsldine, who has just arrived
from Europe, where he attend
ed the Johnson-Moran and Ritchie-
Welsh fights, confirms (he reports
that Jack Johnson i nearly throush
as a champlon.
“It was a fairly good fight,” he
said, “but, of course, Moran had no
chanee, for he never did amount to
much. Johnson was very tired at
the end, and if Moran could have
landed one good punch he would
have knocked him out. But Moran
was all in himself by that time, and
his blows were not hard enough to
harm a child,
“The first gopod man who meets
Johnson is sure to beat him. Gun
boat Smith wouldn't have a chance,
but Jess Willard would beat him be
yond a doubt.”
Bob Vernon, who came across with
Considine, does not agree with him.
Vernon says that Moran was out
classed and that Johnson was almost
as good as the day he whipped Jef
fries at Reno. Vernon does not be
lieve there is a man in the world who
has a chance to win the champion
ship from Johnson. 1
Vernon also believes Willle Ritchie
could lick Freddle Welsh in a finish
fight. He saw no reason, however, m\
find fault with the decision giving the
London fight to Welsh on points. ‘

The Giants-Pirate game of 21
innings was the longest ever play
ed in the National League.
The longest major league game
was played in the American
League, in Boston, September 1,
1906, between the Red Sox and
Athletics. It lasted 24 innings, and
was won by the Mackmen, 2 to 1.
The longest game played by pro
fessional league teams was staged

Rube Marquard Won
Long Game Suffering
With Tonsilitis
PITTSBURG, July 18.—Before
Rube Marquard and “Babe” Adams,
stars of yesterday's record-breaking
pitchers’ baftle, were out of bed this
morhing several telegrams had been
received congratulating the famous
pitchers on their remarkable work on
the mound in yesterday's 21-inning
game. While the game is not the
world's record for long innings, the
game is remarkable for the fact that
bath pitchers went the whole 21 :in
nings.
The southpaw was in Chicago wich
the Giants the early part of the week
and was unable to take his turn in
the pitching box. He had an attack
of tonsilitis, which had not disap
peared, and he went in thinking he
would not have to pitch but nipe in
nings, and some of those on Forbes
Field looked for him to “blow” before
the game was half over, as he had not
been doing well this season.
The Pirates nicked Rube for enough
hits in the first inning to score one
run, but after that they could not get
a man across, and for twenty innings
they were blanked. Several times
they got runners on the bags, but
Rube's work, backed by the Giants’
splendid support, held the Pirates.
Babe Adams, star of a World's Se
ries championship several years ago,
was as steady as a clock. Not one,
man was passed by him during the
entire 21 innings, but in the last ses
sion he weakened and on a single by
Bescher and a homer by Captain Lar
ry Doyle the Giants put over two
runs, one more than was necessary to
win the game. It took 3 hours and
42 minutes to play the 21 innings.

Again Rained Out
Owing to the unfriendly attitude of
the elements almost all mtaches in the
local tennis tournament were interfered

such an extent that play can not be re

The best tennis so far uncorked in

Iy up to anticipations. Although neither
man was inclined to take chances, the
match was by no means a mere ping
ponging affair. Time after time unex

enthusiastically witnessed by a consid
erable gallery.
Peeples finally annexed the first set
at 6-4, but Hunt came back strong in
the second, having his man 6-1, when
the weather interfered.
An exciting match was played be
tween Trimble and Smith, and Black and
Maddox, in the doubles event, the for

Carpentier Started Career at 13
Has Had Many Ups and Down
By Ed W. Smith.
HOULD this young French star,
S Georges Carpentier, be guccese
ful in landing the world’'s box
ing championship—stranger things
have happened, you know, and strange
things are constantly bobbing up in
this strange boxing game—he will go
down in ring history as one of the
most remarkable fighters the world
ever knew.
He is one of the mighty few men
that have fought in every class into
which boxers are divided. More than
that, he fought well in all of them,
too.
ALL of this ring action has been
crowded into less than seven
yvears of actual work, the most re
markable feat of Carpentier's career
being that he began the gentle art of
slamming an opponent’s face when
only 13 years old. Georges will not
have reached his maljority mark un
til January 12 next. Know ye all right
now that Carpentier is not far re
moved from a world's title, and his
defeat over Gunboat Smith has put
him in line for a crack at Jack John
son and the title.
* - .
INO man’s boxing career as we now
recall presents a like number of
ups and downs as this young French
man’s. He nas been knocked out and
'beaten, yet he kept 6n coming regard
less of the upsets, until to-day he is
truly rezarded as one of the most
dangerous men among the big fellows.
'He has the punch, and that, when
coupled with a fair degree of defen
sive skill, makes a dangerous man out
of any strong young fellow.
¢ = @
WHFJN Carpentler was a slip of a
lad at 13 years, they introduced
him to a set of boxing gloves and ne
was sent on his way. He was a ban
tamweight then, and the boxing game
was just beginning to boom mightily |
in the French capital. He lost a four- 1
round bout to Mazolr in his first year.,
but in 1908 he went through without
a defeat. In 1909 he was knocked out l
by Gloria, and the following year,
boxing as both a featherweight and a
lightweight, he was twice beaten, once
by Buck Shine In eight ruunds and
again by Young Snowball in four
rounds, names that sound suspicious
ly like some that American negroes
might pick out for themselves.
DEF’EATS didn't dishearten this
young chap, and he kept plowing
along steadily, winning here and there,
until at the start of 1911 he was a
full-fledged lightweight. As such he
ran into a desperate snag in Henry
Piet, the young French lightweight,
who came to this country once and
was stopped in a couple of rounds by
Ad Wolgast. Piet bested Carpentler
in ten rounds and then the Dixie Kid
came along and also gloughed Georges
iin five rounds.
- - -
THEN Georges began to taks
weight on his already big frame.
By the time 1913 rolled around,
Georges had jumped through the
welterweight division, it having .been
decided that he shouldn’'t make
welght. Soon as he quit trying to
reduce he became a full-fledged mid
dleweight, and along about that time
Frank Klaus, of Pittshurg, and Billy
Papke, of Kewanee, 111, had becoma
known in Paris and France as two of
the greatest fighters in the world.
- - -
CABPENTIER was matched with
Klaus for a twenty-round batt'e
on June 24, 1912, and lost on a foul
in the nineteenth round, when his ex
cited seconds clambered into the ring
to rescue him from the mauling the
American was giving hiim. Again
undismayed by the reverse, Carpen
tler took on Papke on October 23, taa
same year, and was stopped in the

Carpentier’s Rise in
arp R
Ring Told in Brief
Age—Twenty years, ;
Began boxing when 13 years old.
Then was a bantamwelight, §
Became a featherwelght In 1909, {
Two years later he was a light- |
welght and In 1911 blossomed out
as a welterwelght of 145 pounda,
In 1912 he was beaten by both
Frank Klaus and Blily Pake as a
middlewelght and the following year
defeated Bombardier Wells and other
heavywelights,
Now he welghs about 185 pounds,
having boxed In every class In the !
boxing game. E
seventeenth round, his seconds declin
ing to permit him to g 0 out for the
eighteenth because of his general
weakness.
. - .
CARPENTIER had a good alibi for
that defeat. Growing like a we=d,
he found it impossible to make the
weight demanded by Papke without
taking all of his strength, and thea
it was announce® that Carpentier
never again would battle as a mid
dleweight, but wou'd build up and be
come a full-fledged heavy.

"l‘ HE mercurfal Frenchman acceptzd
| the statement and lauded Car
pentier just as much as they would
have had he beaten Pap:e. He was a
long way from being dlsgraced and
became even more of a Parisian idol
than he was before. Deapite his size,
Jeff Smith, of Bayonne, N J., only a
154-pounder, held him for twenty
rounds, and though Carpentier got the
decision, it was claimed that a draw
was the worst Smith was entitled to.
. . -
CARPENTIER‘S dazzling defeats of
Bombardier Wells, once in a
round and a half and the second time
in 73 seconds, gave him an interna
tional reputation, and then when Jos
Jeannette came along and got a de
cision over him in fifteen rounds the
Frenchmen were entlirely undisturbed
and hugged and kissed him after the
defeat just the same as if he had
knocked the big colorefllshter out.
