H | PAGE SIX TITLE AGAINST 85 ASPIRANTS Bout with Frush Will Be the 86th Clash as Feather- weight Champion ‘Cleveland, Sept. 16—When Johnny Kilbane meets Danny Frush, ; a twelve-round decis- Saturday afternoon, | 17, it will be his eighty-| September sixth bout as featherweight champion, | and the third time he has participated in a decision battle, Johnny Dundee and George Chaney were his oppon- ents in previvus bouts at which the title was at stake. The champion has fought 135 times since he entered the ring in 1907 for his first professional bout. Including the $60,000 he will be paid for the) rush engagement, win, lose or draw, | he has earned nearly a quarter of a million dollars in the ring. boxed 1,150 rounds, average of $1,838 a contest. A list of the battles in. which Kil- ban drew down substantial amounts | were: Gecrée Chaney, $14,000; Benny | Leonard, $11,000; Artie Rot, $11,000; Benny Valger, $9,500; Andy (5,000; Frankie ‘Burns, $5,000 Williams, $5,000; Freddie Walsh, $2,500. Kilbane’s money has ‘been invested principally. in’ Cleveland real estate. ‘He probably is the largest’ owner of two-family houses in the city. The $60,000 purse which Kilbane will receive for boxing Frush is the} largest in the history of the feather- weight divsion. Frush’s share wll be only $2,500—his training expenses. VET: COACHES 10 DIRECT WESTERN FOOTBALL TEAMS Stagg, Williams and Yost Have! Had Many’ Years in Foot:' ° ball Field sey Chicago, Sept. 16,-Veteran coaches will direct the work of each of the ten football teams of the Western Inter- collegiate ‘Conference this season. Stagg and Williams and Yost, if not already .the Nestors among active coaches of the sport, are rapidly ap- proacning Nestorian honors. ‘the oth- er seven coaches will average a de- cade of active work in the field and all have boen tried in their present or other positions. The list of head coaches coming season follows: School j{ Coach Chicago, A. A, Stagg, Yale. for the Played Mlinois, R, C. Zuppke, Wisconsin. (*)| Indiana, bi. O, Stiehm, Wisconsin.

Many Were Linemen Strange as it may seem, not one of the above names appears in the game’s history book, in which are Kept the records of runs, of drop and place kicks and other details of the spectacular and the unusual. Possibly this is because too many of them were linemen in their playing days. Pos- + sibly it is because some of them play- ed so far back in the history’ of the game that authentic data is not avail- able. But these same record tpoks ‘contain the names of Blanchard of Harvard, 1875; Thompson, Yale, 1876; Cushing, Harvard, 1877; Holmes, Har- vard, 1877; Lee, Pennsylvania, 1878; A. H. Cutts, Princeton, 1878; McNair, iPrinceton, 1879; and the comparative- ly modern Bull of Yale in 1888, From these names and dates the records verge towards modernity with the acts of the O’Deas, Herschbergers, Potters, Vandoozers, Poes, Shevlins, Camps, DeWitts, Knipes, Ames, Hares, ‘Woodruffs, Thorpes, Marshalls, Hink- . eys, Phil Kings, Hestons, Weeks, Eck- ersalls, Stanford Whites, Brickleys, (Mahans, and Bradens whose acts have brought the occupants many football stands to their — feet’ with} fome piece of accuracy strategy and’ daring. Nowhere in‘ this list of the’ {great departed” is found one of the names of a head ‘coach of the “Big Ten,” al- though their playing days were scat- tered through the years between the} beginning’ of the game and a:decade ago. Possibly the qualities which: made them) great coaches, observers | of the game, ‘are not the onds ‘that seize thd psychological moment to ap: pear in the limelight. One ‘New Comer Only one néw ‘comer appears in the list, W. W. Diety, ‘coach elgct at Purdue. “Lone Star” Dietz is’ the only “original” American in the pres- ent list. He is the first Indian, ever to head a team of the “Big Ten.” It is remembered in this statement that “Bill” Juneau, of a family proud of} the distant bjood of patrician red men, was once head coach at Wiscon- sin. Dietz is a more rezent player at Carlisle and in the seven or eight} years since he left the Pennsytvania school, he has had_ valuable, experi- ‘ence as a coach. He will be one of three Indians at the head of represen- tative teams this year, the others be- ing A. A, Exedine, coach at George- town University, Washington, D. C., and G.

Duna field here on the afternoon of Septem- ber 17 in’a twelve-round decision bout, reveals that the champion made much faster progress toward ihe throne than did Frush. When the Baltimore ,youth crawis into the ring to meet the veteran, Fist- fana’s Blue Book will record his sixty- second contest since he became a pro- fessional boxer. He nas had to en- gage in twice as many battles ag the titleholder to enter pugilism’s select class. He has, however, scored 18 knockouts in five years. Kilbane scored only 22 in 15 years. When Kilbane boxed Abe Attell, the former featherweight champion, for the first time in Kanga City in 1910, he had only engaged in 29 encounters. Depite his lack of experience, Kilbane hustled Attell hard for twelve rounds but lost the decision by a narrow mar- gin. Kilbane at that tine possessed a world of speed and sk:ti, however. The bout in which Klibane won the decision over Attell on February 22, 1912, in twenty rounds, at Vernon, Cal., was hig fifty-first. Since then, he has met 85 opponents, both featherweight and lightweights. Kilbane’s most important battles have been the following: Abe Attell, won, 20 rounds; John Dundee, draw, 20 ronnds; Eddie O'Keefe, k..o. 1 George Hermon“ “Babe” \Ruth yes- Leonard, Al Shubert and Al Wagney.
