MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1925 World Results By Leased Wire B DEALENBACH TO MEET. FLOWERS IN BOUT SOON Atlanta Was Extended To Limit in Match » With Marullo. ’ By FAIR PLAY. (Copyright, 19: Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Feb. 2.—Having won over Tony Marullo on points, Paul Berlenbach will prepare to deal with Tiger Flowers, whose knockout the other night over Tommy Robin- son of Malden, Mass., brought the Atlantan into the Umelight once mor Fighters, no matter how good, are not knocking Tommy around with immunity. In fact, the sleeping po- stion he received from Flowers was the first in his career, ‘ If you take Jack Delaney's fight against Flowers and Belenbach’s against Tony Marvilo at the garden on Vriday night, the only idea to be obtained is that Delaney is the class over Tony today just as he was when he knocked the former wrestler out. If ever a battler earned a draw it was Marullo. Yet, on the other hand, an actual tally of points would give Berlenbach a slight advantage, he having taken seven of the 12 rounds and Marullo five, but irre spective of points, the best way to judge this fight was to figure what would have happened had {t gone to a finish or say to 20 or 25 rounds. Figuring this way, there seems hardly a doubt that Berlenbach had the strength and endurance and punching power to have stowed the gBame and the clever New Orleans fighter away. Marullo and Berlenbath put up as thrilling a battle for six rounds as fight crowd ever saw. They re- minded one of two battleships lying close together and firing broadsides at each other. All the hitting was free and clean. You could see the blows start and see them whistle to their targets. Why one or the other—or both—did not fade away under the terrific bombardment puzzled the specta- tors who have not been accustomed to seeing such fron jawed, oak-rib- bed bruisers in action. But it was Marullo who got tired first and from the ninth round to the twelfth Ber- Jenbach was making the fight and giving his man a bad beating. Marullo opened the fight with the spirit of a pit bull terrier, He went into Paul so ferociously that Berlen- bach never did get set the whole round and took a pretty good bast- ing. In the second Marullo wes still full of fight but before the frame was over Berlenbach got himself in hand and began to pump rights and lefts into his onrushing opponent, It was the first fight in which Berlen- beth has used his right to any great ‘extent. But Friday night, he had to use it, In fact, he could have made good use of a couple of additional hands, too, In the fourth round, Marullo showed to advantage and in the sev- enth he showed up his man in good style, pasting him with everything. But after that, Berlenbach's rugged strength stood him in stead, and had he not been slow and stupid he prob, ably could have put Tony away. —_— Two Arrested In Lee Stack Murder LONDON, Feb, 2.—A Reuter’s dis patch from Cairo saye the greatest importance is attached to the arrest of two men Saturday in connection with the assagsinaation of the sidar Sir Lee Stack.

(Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Feb, 2.—Basebail men are puzzled, in view of the de- velopments in the criminal investiga- tion of the Jimmy O'Connell, Cozy Dolan case, to determine whether O'Connell gave Commissioner Lan- dis more evidence than the commis- sioner published. : It is readily conceded that there might have been certain discoveries which Judge Landis might have felt he should withhold until he was cer- tain he had ended the case, Reference {s made by the district attorney's office here to a_ state- ment said to have been made by O'Connell but there is no signed testimony by him in the evidence so far presented. Js the transcript of the commissioner’s examination ao- cepted as a statement by the prin- cipal offender? There is no doubt about the sin- cerity of the baseball men in the Na- tonal league and advisory council as they are giving all the assistance they ean toward probing further tn- to the affair, To date the district attorney's office has said that noth- ing further has developed than was unearthed in the commissioner's in- veatigation. And the baseball au- thorities seem to be of the opinion that the district attorney will have @ hard time getting more out of the affair than already has been dug up. To do so, it would be necessary to obtain more information from O'Connell or Dolan or both. That will hardly be done if both players stick to thelr present attitude. There are members of the Ameri- can league who are becoming more and more dissatisfied lately with the joint, meeting of the major leagues at Chicago last December. At least two of the club owners are resentful of the attitude in which they main- tain they are left after the disciplin- ing of their president, One of the American owners wha had been thinking for the last month about what has been happening ‘8 “this is the last time the baseball politicians are going to use his vote to make his league look like a minor organization, His contention is that all which occurred at Chicago wi imply the result of the attempt of the National league to gain pres: tige at the expense of the American league and to offset ali of the for- mer's troubles, The fans have found that the greater the rivalry between the ma- Jorsthe better baseball they get usu- ally, However, this attitude on the part ofan American league owner ts interesting because it bears out the prediction made after the Chicago meeting that it would be only a short time~ before the American league owners, after thinking things over, would begin to resent the ac, tion fore¢d upon them.

FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW YORK, Feb. 2. — “Self.de- fense may be a great art, but it isn't worth a dime as anything else. The fellow who can jab fast and step away can get a cheer in Hngland, but he can't get even that in this country, It's the land of the sock her Di Morgan, veteran New York boxing manager, was talking about the hig money that is now avail- able for boxers in the American ring. Morgan has been through the high finanee days of the ring and he had experience in the ten-buck era. In more than twenty years of associa- tion with boximg he has handled more than two millions of dollars in purses and has been connected with five hundred boxers, including four world’s champions. “No defensive fixhter can get into the real big money now,” Morgan said. ‘The old sock draws the crowds and makes the pursee and boxing fans aren't particular now {f there are two bums working just so they can hit. “Last symmer I told a champion who ign't famed for his hitting that he could make $75,000 without much trouble {f he would accept a lot of bookings that I could get for him. “He was insulted, ‘I ought to get that much meney for one fight,’ he told me, ' I answered, ‘you ought to get $260,000 for these dates, but you can't hit and if you don’t fight you'll be lucky to have $75,000 for a year's work.’ “A lot of people think that a cham- pion can command huge purses just because of his title. That’s wrong. I had a world’s champion in these big money days and he was taking a lot of $700 shots, Most of his bouts went the limit, because he wasn't a killing puncher. “I had Battling Levinsky and Jack Britton, two of the greatest defen- sive boxers that ever pulled on a glove. They made enough money to live in comfort for the rest of their days, but they’d have made no mil- Non if they could hit harder. ‘They were able to keep working longer and could fight oftener than a sock: er, however, because they were so clever they were seldom hurt, “To ilustrat my point about the sock, Jook at the caso of Paul Ber: lenbach, He was a tirnoyer wrest: ler and he didn’t know any moro about boming than an African mis- sionary, but he could bit and he packed them tn, In lows than a year Just at the #tart of his earcer, he made more money than a jet of oth. er novices who wouldn't step in and punch could make in five yoars.

Maybe they did have more real fight in them than the fighters of today, but they were all interested in the dough end of the game so you can't blame these boys now for getting as much as they can.” “Fighters aren't born any more the way they used to be,” Morgan continued, “They have to be made. The instinet used to be the main thing but a fighter doesn't even have to have that now, Street fight- ing in the tenements turned a lot of kids into professional fighters, but the improvement in living conditions and the dpcrease in educational facil- ities has changed all that. ‘The possibility of making money quickly is luring a type of boxers In- vo the ring today that wouldn't have thought of the gloves ten years ago. Eddie Garvey is a good example. Garvey is a Notre Dame graduate and a lawyer. He was an All-Amer- ican tackle on the Netre Dame foot- ball team and when he left college he found that he couldn't make enough money out of the law to keep him and his family. He had a lot of sige and he went inte boxing. He may turn into @ great boxer and he may not. But he'll make @ lot of money because he has a lot of color and he's a new type, Business is al- ways good for anything new. Bully Montgomery, a Centre college foot- ball star, is also in the boxing racket and he took up the game for the same reason. “These college men are good pr pects bectuse they have intelligence, ‘They are ensy to handle becauce they ere willing to Hsten, They know that to learn they have to be Caught, When you tell them how to do a thing they immodistely gét the rea- son and they'll start to figuring p better way. They also aro more will- ing to keep in condition and joss susceptible to the temptations that cause tho downfall of so many uned- ucated boys. “You go to the amatour shows and woe the change in the types that are taking up boxing. ro are a jot @f Gene Tunney types who are get- ting away from typewriters and high stosla to learn how to fight, and dough and they all now st.” SI |SPORT BRIEFS PARIB.—Alexander Alechine, FR sian champion, set a now world's vecord, When he ylnyed blindfolded agains, 26 French) amateur chem , Winning 22 gamew, drawing and Josing three, CHICAGO—Jimmy Hlouin won ie world's bowljng champjonahip by thre = SOCIETAL PAGE FIVE First in News To 9 TO"EOT ME UP Champion Washington Senatora Leo Diogel, professional golfer, and Clark Grimth, president of the Washington baseball club. defeating Joe Soribner 17,703 to 16,584. of Detroit, Sammy Mandell of Chicago, and Sid Terris-of New York, will clash at Madison Square Garde, Friday night, in the first lightweight rum bling of the coming storm.
