We didn’t know any- thing about training, and the boy who could stand up under the worst hard- ships was gen'ly the toughest scrap- Per. “Take the North Dakota lad that we called “Terrible Swede”—at 17 he blew his summer wages for a rifle and rail ticket, and was off to the Minne- sota woods to hunt big game. Tramp- ed a coupla hundred miles in deep snow and shot a buck; ran out 0’ money and sold his rifle to buy grub; started for home, got lost in the and walked 30 miles to a rail siding and hopped a west-bound freight. A brakie kicked him off when he was 40 miles from home, and he walked all night—36 hours without a bite to eat. That was the kind o’ training he started out with. Two Agree To Fight “The ‘Swede’ at 19, we 138, was called the best man in his neig! borhood; but there was another husky lad weighin’ 170, and his friends thought he had a better claim The youngsters were rather chummy, but one night at a dance, the big lad’s fool friends sicked him onto the ‘Swede,’ and they went out in the street to fight it out. They } | squared off, and darn my socks if the big boy didn’t knock the ‘Swede’ out with the first haymaker. They car- ried the kid into the hall, and when he came to, the other lad was there abusin’ him and rubbin’ it in. “Well, you did it that time,’ said the ‘Swede’, rubbin’ his sore chin, ‘but you can’t do it again!’ So they went out a second time, and believe ess 6 Terrible Swede Was Battling 2 * & FIGHTERS NEEDED ENDURANCE se & *** * @ wolf on his back. The wrestler got tired, over-reached himself and the ‘Swede’ turned him over and knocked him out where he lay on the floor. Everything went, with a blood-thirst; crowd on hand yellin’ for action. “The Terrible Swede didn’t meet an experienced ring fighter until he was matched with Billy Rhode. They were to go 12 rounds, but the turnout ‘was small, so they compromised on a 6-round exhibition. Billy was in a bad humor and decided to polish off the inexperienced farmer lad at ence; so in the second round he sent @ smashing right to the kid's jaw, which seut him bouncin’ across the Planks with such force that he skin- ned both knees. It wasn't quite a knockout; the kid was tough, and the idea seeped into his muddled brain that he had met up with a double- crosser. It made him furious—so he Jumped to his feet and went after Billy, Sailor Sharkey fashion—the only style he had learned up to that ‘Was Accurate Puncher “Billy, with his long, whip-cord | tory. arms was an accurate puncher, and with that charging demon on the oth- er side, it made a wild and woolly fight. First one would be on the floor, then the other and sometimes four or five minutes. The fighters were blood from head to foot, and at last they were fightin’ on the floor, Billy was swearin’ like a pirate an’ crying like a baby, all at the same time, and the other lad was just about as far gone. At last the referee Pried ‘em apart and called it a draw. A gent who kept track said they had gone 11 rounds. “They fought three times after that. Billy had grown into a welter- weight, and won twice, the third was adraw. After that they shook hands and forgot the old grudge. They stuck together, trained each other and toured in partnership for six years. Their biggest clean-up (I don’t mean money, I mean men) was on the Mesadi range when that country first began to boom. There they dis- posed of all the local ring men, and 8 whole stable-ful of fighters shipped in by a Chicago promoter.

The Mudhens had to go 10 innings to win. St. Paul boosted its margin of leadership to a full game by winning its second straight of the series over Louisville, 10 to 5. The Colonels Jumped into the lead early and had the Saints down by 5 to 3 at the end of the sixth. Lefty Leifield’s band started clicking in the seventh, how- ever, when they scofed three, and finished up with four in the eighth. Bream allowed the Colonels 13 hits, while Joe De Berry and Ben Tincup ‘were rapped for 13 by the Saints. Minneapolis belted Bill Burwell and Lee Daney for 18 hits, but had to wait until the ninth inning to defeat Indianapolis, 9 to 8. With the bases loaded and two out in the final inn- ing, Harry Riconda doubled to send in the winning and tying runs. Rube Benton, George Dumont and Mor- gan worked for the Millers and per- mitted 11 hits. Norris, with four singles, led the Minneapolis attack. Bud Hungling, subbing at first base for Milwaukee during the injury en- forced absence of Art Shires, lined out it or not, the little scrapper gave Mr. Big Boy the awfullest lacing you ever saw. It was the big lad who had to be carried into the hall this time. Urged To Enter Ring “The ‘Swede’ was urged to keep on fightin’, and won a few small-town fights, among them two or three rough-and-tumbles. One was a mixed match agin a heavyweight wrestler. The wrestler got him down and start- ed to choke him, but the tough little nut wouldn't give in, and fought like >? |.
