TUESDAY, APRIL 7, 1925 World Results By Leased Wire’ ANTE ROSS OTD SECOND ACUND Amateur Battler of Elks Tourney Fame Is Outclassed by Casper Professional in Brief Stanza Last Night Crash! And what a fall Marvin Wilson, who con rating in the Elks tourney, hit the floor of the Arkeon ring last night with a resounding thump, from a vicious left hook to the point of the jaw dealt with lightning rapidity by Ern‘e (Kid) Ross. bounded, creshed again and then body lay inert while Tom Foley, ref- eree, counted ten. But Wilson was out cold and stayed in communion FIGHT RESULTS. DECISIONS, Wi Ernie Ross knocked ou Marvin on in the second round. Dynamité Mirphy svou on a re feree's verdict from Mickey Rea- gan in the second routid. Missou Pyle won a judge's de cision over Leonard Blalsiell. Toots Warden and Louie E: man fought a draw. Bill Lester won a decisien over “Bonnie” Gross, Joe Haygood won on a techni- cal knockout from Marvin Pyle in the second rou Andre Vospette knocked out Blackie Hubertson in the second round, Bruce Pyle won a decision over Harry Groscope, with the stars until "he had been car: ried to the dressing room, and re piration remedies applied. It was obvious to the more than 1,000 fight fans who packed the Ar- keon last night for the feature fight card of eight four-round bouts stag- ed under the sponsotship ‘of the Ar- keon Athletic clyb, that Wilson had been knocked out when the blow reached its objective at the ‘point of Wilson's chin, and many of tite fistic devotees were pushing their way out the portals the Arkeon when Foley finished the count. The knock- out blow occurred shortly before the close of the sécord round. During the first round Ross socked Wilson with such a fusillade of left and right uppereuts to the chin and face, that shortly after the first gong it was apparent that Wilson would never last for the four’rounds, Wilson’s blows landed wild and few came within striking range of the Kid's features. The semi-final windup between Dynamite Murphy and Mickey Re- gan, was a disappointment to the fans. The fight from the first gong was mediocre and the fans were sat- Isfied when the referee stopped the combat in the second round and de- clared Murphy the winner. The bout between Missou Pyle and Leonard Blaisdell was full of action but few hard jolts were exchanged. Blaisdell endeayored to carry the fight to his adversary in the open- ing rounds but was outclassed dur- ing most of the distance while Pyle emetged from the melee as fresh as he started. Blaisdell’s gameness won him a good hand. : A good display’of scientific boxing, was found in the four round affair between Toots Warden and Louis Hastman. Toots assumed a gorilla like crouch that presented only the. top of his head and a pair of elbows for Bastman to shoot at. Louis, how- ever, sailed in with e will and car- ried the offense most of the way. Warden withstood the onslaughts of his opponent and stayed fresh until the finish of the fight. The judges called this bout a draw which met with the approval of the majority of the fans. Bill Lester waded into the defense of “Bonnie” Gross and scored blow after blow during the first two ses- Blons. Gross: isn) game. fighter and withsteod the severe punishment but THOUSANDS HAVE KIDNEY TROUBLE AND NEVER SUSPECT TT Applications for Insurance Often Rejected Judging’ from reports from drug- gists who are constantly in direct touch with the public there is ofe preparation that has been very suc: cessful in. overcoming these condi tions, The mild and healing influ- ence of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root 1's soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one © the prominent life insurance com panies, in an interview of the sub- ject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why so many ap cants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble fs so common to the American people, and the large majority of thore whore applications are declined do not pven suspect that they haye the disease. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Reot is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, me- dium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer and Co., Binghamton, N. ¥., for a sample bottle.

Just before th gong, Lester catapulted. thro ropes-from sheer-exhaustion but his offensive battle gave the right to the decision which was awarded by the judges. ‘The bout between Young Haygood and Marvin Pyle. lasted, only -one round. ~ When the-gong. sounded for the second’stanza, Pyle claimed that he had injured his thumb and de: ned ta leave his corner. The ref- eree awarded the decision to H good on a technical knockout. Blackie Hubertson fought a unique bout which was @ surprise to all the ster mit fans. Blackie bored into Andre Vos pette like a flying wedge. Hubert son fought like a coast defense mon itor, It was an endurance contest and in the second round Vospette got tn a blow that caused Blackie to cui? up gn the floor only to. when the attendants carried “him from the ring after thd referee. fin- ished his count.

Harry Bramer of Denver, rated as the class of the featherweight moyn- tain region, will meet Ross tivo weeks from last night on another Arkeon card, according to announce- ment by T, J. McKeon, who read a challenge to the winner just before the’ main go. Sam Prerant was the matchmaker of .last. night's events and Tom Foley refereed to the sat: isfaction of fans. Justice Henry Brennan and Conkling Fitch of the Tribune were judge: DEATH TAKES TRACK HERO OF STANFORD STANFORD, University, Califor- nia, April 7—James Mint “owell hero of the 1922 Stanford-Caiifornia track meet, is dead in San Jose. Howell, who wis in his senior year at Stanford in 1922, was a member of the track team but was il from influenza at the time of the big meet. Learning that the score was very close, he got out of bed nnd went to thb track, arriving in time to compete in the high jump, in which he took. third place, The point he earned enabled Stanford to hold California to a tie, each team having 65% points. The strain of Howell's . efforts, made at a time when he had a high fever, brought about a relapse and his. illnesa eventually turned Into tuberculosis. He had been ill ever since.

NEW CHAMPIONS TO BE EXPECTED FOR ' THE COMING YEAR By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Hditor.) NEW YORK, April 7.—(United Press.)—Many hew faces were found in the championship gallery at the end of the most active indoor cam- paigns in many years. Many other new ones will be found before the end of a new and lively outdoor sea- son. With a few outstanding excep- tions there are nb secure titles on the championships that are to be de- fended this summer. Since weather drove the athletes Indoors, there have been enthroned two new professional boxing cham- pions, a new indoor track champion, a new mile champion, a new walking King and two new basketball] cham- ‘pions, Kid Kaplan became the world’s teathérweight champion by winning a tournament for contenders when Johnny Dundee resigned. Charley Rosenberg won the world's bantamweight championship by de- feating Eddie Martin in a 16-round bout. Georgetown won the indoor inter- collegiate track and field champlion- ship and displaced the University of Pennsylvania, Jole Ray stepped down as the champion indoor miler when he was Gefeated by Paavo Nurmi, the great- est of all runners, Willie Plant became the greatest of the world’s walkers when he de- feated Ugo Frigerio, the Olympic champion of 1920 and 1924, Ohio State won the Western con ference basketball championship and Princeton won the eastern court title Mrs. Marion Zindersteln Jess one of tho few successful fending champions when she repeat: | ed as the woman's indoor tennis | titleholder. % e2e Looking over the prospects for the outdoor season there seem to be a number of Championships that may not change hands and many that are in danger. Among the champions that appear to be secure are Jack Dempsey, Mickey Walker, Bill Tilden, Miss Helen Wills, the American Davis up team, Paavo Nurmi, Walter sen, the Washington Senators i the New York Giants. even though he has not been ih the ring for almost two years, Jack Dempsey should pass through an other season as the world’s heavy- weight champion, because there | very little chance that he will fight Mickey Walker, the world’s welter weight champion, 1s rather firmly seated because there are 60 few con- tenders in his class that are dun- gerous Bill Tilden 4s one of the greatest of all champions and the duration of his reign is iimited chiefly by the number of years that he wants to be champion. Vinnie Richards, Bill | Johnston ‘and- Jim. Anderson, the | Australian champion, are bis only | serious rivals and Tilden is beyond their class. Miss Helen Wills lias very little to four from-any opposition that she will face from American competition, and it'is understood that shots not going to make a foreign ‘invasion. Mrs. Molla Mallory, the former champion, is making quiet prepara- tions for a comeback. She gave up. her annual trip to Europe this win- ter to devote all her time to prepara: tions for a serious campaign this ‘With Bill Tilden, Vinnie Richards summer to regain her title, and Bill Johnston on the team—and there isn’t a doubt that they will be chosen—the United States Is in very little danger of losing the Davis Cup, although the Australien team will | be very formidable. Paavo Nurmi will remain the} world’s greatest runner for reasons so well established that they need not be mentioned, Walter Hagen may not be success- ful in defending his British open golf champlonship—if he decides to go to England—but he should re- tain his position as the greatest of all the American stars. The Washington Senators will be the favorites in the American lsague pennant race because last year’s success didn't go to their heads and because several glaring weaknesses in defense have been corrected. The New York Giants will be the favorites in the National league pen- nant race because they are the New York Giants, a team just as good a8 the team that has won four consecu tive pennants and a team that has to play its best ball all the time for John McGraw. eee With the exception of the heavy weight and welterweight classes, the professional ring titles are all risks if they are defended against out- standing challengers. “Mike Me- Ticue, Gene Tunney, Harry Greb, | Kid Kaplan, Charley Rosenberg and Pancho Villa are all in: danger of losing thelr championships. There probably will be a new inter: | t collegiate ‘track and field champfon, as the 1924 champions, haye not the strength that was thrown on the field last year, It is possible; © that there will be a new national A.
