The other night a number of bouts were staged at Camp Gordon be
tween boys who are wearing the khakik of Uncle Sam. Every one of the
scraps was brimful of action, and those present are still talking about
the evening's entertainment.
Bouts of this sort, however, between soldiers are nothing unusual
One witnessed events of this kind daily abroad; in fact, it was seldom,
indeed, when a card of unsatisfactory scraps was put on over there. And
it was just this sort of ur_flertz‘\lnmem that made the sport so strong
O O L Y P T T L ot R ee s 1
with the red-blooded youths of our
country who served during the
world war, as well as those still in ‘
the service., |
, Most of the boys are back, and it
was only the other that I took part
in a conversation with two army |
officers who witnessed the Herman- |
-Hahn fiasco staged here recently.
Both are lovers of the game, and '
one of them went so far as to
referee a number of bouts in France.
As round after round of the Her
man-Hahn go went on he almost |
shed tears. “Just think of it,” he |
said. “Those fellows can't have an
interest of the sport at heart and go ‘
through an exhibition of that kind.
It's impossible.” And the speaker |
was right. ;
. " ‘
Selfish promoters, who only think
of themselves and what gain they
may derive from each bout, and
boxers whose only ambition is to
grab as much of the 'soft” money
as they can possibly get their hands
on are the game's worst enemies.
It has been this way ever since |
the sport first gained a stronghold
with the public. State after State |
has legalized the sport only to |
clamp on the lid after it was given
a fair chance, and it's a shme.
. L
Recently there was some talk up
East regarding the organization of a
National Boxing Commission, much
on the order of the one that rules
baseball. Even such grealt men as
ex-President Taft and General Wood
were suggested as belng fit parties to
head a body of this kind, and they
would, but the chances are that nei
ther of them would care to ,neddle in
an affair of this kind.
4t takes a student of the boxing
game to handle this sport, as it's a
mighty hard game at best. A com
mission that could rule boxing
throughout the country, made up of
men who have been connected with
the sport in a clean manner, would
be a wonderful thing, but for the
present it's only a dream.
.5 " ‘
A good plan, however, on a smaller
scale that might be worked out, in
my opinion, is the organization of a
body of men to control boxing in a
number of States or cities within a
set area. Right here in the South we
have boxing in Georgia, Tennessee,
Arkansas and Louisiana. If some ar
rangement could be made whereby the
leading boxing men of these States
could get together and form some
sort of a commission that would pro
tect the people against all visiting

Graw will quit and Moran will be
given $20,000 a year, with a three

Can you beat it? Can you ever tie
it? Yet that is what is setting all
New York on fire, says W. A. Phe
lan in the Cincinnati Times-Star.
Everywhere that fans assemble this
is the current chatter, and it seems
to be accepted almost as unshakable.
"“We lent Mathewson to Cincinnati,
and we took him back. We've just
loaned Moran to Cincinnati to see
if he had the ability. He's shown it,
and he comes back to New York in

Up and down Broadway, at the

for granted that Pat Moran will aban

minds of the New York fans, the of

Moran and MecGraw were séen to

of that, especially after his failure,

boxers coming this way, it would
prove a big boost to the sport. In
that way, if a boxer came to Atlanta
and made a miserable showing he
could then have his case handled by
said commission and if found guilty
of the charge he could then be barred
in every one of these States, hesides
suffering the punishment the local
boxing heads may wish to place on
him. True, this might seem a bit
complicated now, but there is no
‘doubt that it could be worked out to
| some satisfactory arrangement. |
v 59 |
During the last two years the bouts
in this town have been anything but
worthy of the patronage of followers
of the sport here, notwithstanding
some of the reports printed of those
‘encounters.
The fault is not to be found with
the local boys. For years it has been
mostly due to their efforts that the
game has been able to thrive here.
it has long been the custom that
whenever a bad bout was staged in
this city that the promoter of said
event would fall back on local talent
in his effort to get back into the good
graces of Atlanta fandom. This has
worked out to the satisfaction of
some in a way, but the fans here am{
getting wised up to this fact. They
are not going to be fooled so easily!
when the “next one” is pulled here as
some think,
It's all right to send for outsiders
when they come here with the inten
tion of delivering, as real sportsmen
should, but by all means every effort
should -be made to protect the fans
here against fiascos the like of mel
recent one.
. . "
Atlanta doesn’'t want to be the
home of fly-by-night promoters, in
competent referees, and boxers who
are only touring the country to pick"
up what they call “soft” money. A
plan has been put into use here
to have two judges and the referee
in rendering decisions. It's my
opinion that any ring judge who
hasn’t got the courage to give a
my opinion that any ring judge who
hasn't got the courage to render a
decision as he sees it should keep
out of the ring. True, he may be
forced to suffer abuse now and then,
as it's a well known fact that a ref
eree, like an umpire in a baseball
game, can’t call them to the satisfac
tion of all. Nevertheless, when thel
fans see a boxing contest, they want
to see the decision rendered imme
diately after the bout by the man
who is in a position to see what has
happened. It's his duty to render the
verdict, and passing the buck to
some one else doesn't help matters
any. ‘
paround his ample frame. And Pat
Moran, so all new York imagines, is
to become his successor-—was only
loaned to Cincinnati when McGraw
‘had signed him for a coaching job.
~ It's holy writ to New Yorkers—
they believe it—and the best proof of
their belief is that they have forgot
‘ten all about Christy Mathewson,
who was supposed to have the inside
track as McGraw's successor. Matty
‘'might as well be in equatorial Africa
'l’or all the notice and attention he
receives today. The New York fans
!ha.vo passed by and forgotten that
‘he lives. He no ionger elicts a roar
ing cheer as he stalks to the coach
ing line. Pat Moran is the new idol,
new-risen, cheered and eulogized,
feted and fluttered after the tremen
dous events of recent afternoons.
Pat laughs at the New York ru
mors. “And it's a pretty figure I'd
be cutting,” says he “quitting a place
where I've had such treatment as
they've given me in Cincinnati! T'll
stay in Cincinnati just as long as they
want me to remain, Yes, I often meot‘
John, and, ofi the field, he and I are‘
friends for life. Didn't John give me
this chance with Cincinnati—didn’t
he let me off from my New York
contract so I could go there? I'm
John's friend ,and he's mine—but it's
in Cincinnati’that I'll stay, and no
other place looks tempting to me!” l

International News Sports Editor,
FOREST HILLS, L. I, Aug. 30.—
William Johnston of San Francisco
dethroned National Champion Lindley
Murray of Niagara Falls in the fifth
round of the national tennis singles
tournament here this afternoon,
Johnston eliminated the champion
from further competition in the tour
nament by taking three out of four
sets, 5-7, 6-1, 6-2 and 6-4.
| Murray’s playing lacked the zip that
|cat?lod him to the championship. And
from the first it was evident that
Johnston was his master,
Murray was excellent in service.
Johnston outplayed his rival cleanly
and scored many points of placement
shots that weer driven to Murray's
right. Murray is a left handed player.
By his victory Johnston enters the
semi-final round, scheduled for Mon
day. He will meet the winner of the
Wallace F. Johnson-W. M. Hall
match. As he is much the superior
of either of these players, he is prac
tically sure to fight it out for the
championship in the final round.
The point score of the Murray-
Johnston match follows:

Gerald Patterson, the newest Aus
tralian lawn tennis star, was not
trained and developed by Norman E.
Brookes. Far from it.
The young star gives credit to no
one but his own father, who began
grooming the boy for lawn tennis
honors when he was 10 years old.
And the course of training included
not only lawn tennis, but swimming,
foothall and cricket,
FATHER GOOD PLAYER.
In a conversation with a friend Just
after the recent triumph at Wim
bledon, when he heat Brooks in the
final round for the so-called world's
championship, Patterson said:
“I received no Instructions from
any ehampion. My father, who was
really a good player, took me in hand
when 1 was 10 years old, and 1
picked up many valuable methods as
the result of his teachings.
“He considered that if T was to
make my mark among the first
class players I would have to train
hard. And this was the doctrine he
took care to see that I followed. He
had me out of bed at 6 o'clock every
morning, and dad and I practised
together on a hard asphalt court at
our Melbourne home.
\ LEARNS SMASHING. |
“Having to deal with hLigh bound
ing balls, I was able to develop and
then perfect the backhand drive. I
also accustomed myself to making a
tercific smash on every occasion
when I was able to maneuver into
the eorrect position, “
“Swimming also was a wvaluable
asset in my training, but ! cultivated
other forms of athletic pursuits as
well, and each served for general
benefit.” /
Patterson made his first public ap
pearance when he was 12 years old
and a student at Melbourne College
He was a competitor in the all-|
comers’ singles handicap at Geelong.

International Games
NEW HAVEN, Aug. 30.—Plans
for holding an international track
meet between Harvard and Yale,
representing America and Oxford
and Cambridge as English repre
sentatives, were discussed, follow
ing the Yale-Marvard dual track

pressed themselves as favorable to
the proposition, although agreeing
that nothing definite can be stated

The question of sending a for
mal challenge to the English uni
versities will be decided after the
matter is presented to the author
ities in both universities. If Yale
and Harvard cross the ocean next
year an understanding will be
reached whereby Oxford and Cam
bridge will come to America and
probably compete in Yale’s new
athletic field in three or four years,
