His greatest antagonist of recent years, Lew Tendler of Phila- delphia, is returning from Pittsburgh, torn and sore, the victim of a knocl out for the first time in/his life. Battered down twice at the hands of the veteran Jack Zivic, Tendler must have undergone a terrible ex- perience in the realization that time had conquered a man who a little more than a year ago fought the t Leonard twice, and on each oc- © on stood firmly on his feet at the end of 15 rounds. Leonard and Tendler clashed in Jer- sey City on July 27, 1922, and, in the opinion of sporting writers, the npion's margin of victory was very slight in a grueling contest. On 23, 1923, they met again at the Stadium, In New York, and a n the champion successfully de- fended his title. For the past year and a half Tend- er has been doing little fighting. He conquered Joe Tiplitz in 10 rounds at Philadelphia on December 24 of last year. From the weight announced t Pittsburgh—138% pounds—the Philadelphian is able to make the lightweight limit, but his defeat at the hands of Zivic undoubtedly pre- cludes any possibility of his entering the tournament for the crown for w p in years past he strived so valiantly ITALIAN HEAVYWEIGHT T0 FIGHT FRIDAY NIGHT By the Associated Press. 2 YORK, January 20.—Mario Giglio, regarded as light-heavyweight | champion of Italy, arrived here yes- terday, and is scheduled to make his n debut against Jack Lester of Grand Rapids in a 10-round bout at Englewood, N.

"BASE BALL MAN DIES. WILLIAMSPORT, Pa., January 20.— N. Burrows Bubb, president of the Williamsport club of the New York- Pennsylvania League, died in New York City last night of pneumonia after several days illness. | Right When a ball player has been in the game as long as I have, very few plays stand out in his memory. After 20 years of professional base ball some of the great deeds of the past have faded away into only vague memorles. In such a long of years ball player ~%ifigures in a lot of ‘fi’xrnt plays and #% sces a lot more great ones. But ‘playing 154 games /@ year for twenty f years dulls almost i any man a bit to the thrills of the HARRY HOOPER. game. The play that gave me the great- est thrill of my major league career occurred in Chicago the Summer of 1924, Walter Johnson was pitching against us and grand old Walter had a three-run lea nnd was breezing along easily, The game was in the fifth Inning and we seemed hopelessly beaten. Then Johnson had one of his rare wild streaks, something he does not have twice in a whole season. His curve would not behave, and he walk- ed two men in succession. The nexf batter beat out a bunt, and I came up with the bases filled. It was a tough pinch for any ball player, and even tougher when you realize that you are up against the smartest old fox that ever put on a pitching glove. Walter's curve still was behaving badyy. He got Inte & man as any one hix size could posnibly be, and you all know what Jack did to him. Jeffries Vs. Dempsey. Yes sir, if anybody lived who cbuld whip the present champlon it was either Jefiries or Jack Johnson. Jeffries was n bg, tough n who could hit. What a battle a Jeffries-Dempsey match would have made Jack Johnwon would have proved formidable on account of hix size and remarkable defense. There ix mome question ax to whether Dempsey could get to the black man with enough success to bring him down. Personally, we feel safe in say- ing that Jack Dempsey can whip any man who ever lived. “Belleve It or Not.” WALKER IN RING GO AT CONGRESSIONAL |: Mickey Walker, welterweight ing champion of the world, will sist in the celebration of New Je night at Congressional Country € on February The fistic artist, who makes Newark, N.

MY GREATEST THRILL IN SPORT BY HARRY HOOPER lder of the Chicago White Sox hole on me, and I worked the count to “three and two.” Johnson was not throwing mearly the number of fast balls that he did 10 years ago. If-he had kept up that pace his arm would have given out long ago. He used curve balls and his head. But I figured that in the pinch, when his curves were failing him, he would try to slip a fast one by me T was waiting for it and Walter £ot it a bit too close to the center Of the piate. I met it squarely, and when the ball cnme down It wax in the top row of the right-fleld blenchers. Those four runs put us ahead and eventually won the ball game for us. I had ot the greatest thrill of my life hitting a home run off Johnson with bases full and break- ing up a ball gnme. 1 wanted that ball to send home to my kid for a souvenir, and I took a new ball from the bench out with me to try to make a trade with the fan in the bleacher who had captured the homer that I I could not find any trace of it, but an inning later, when I went out, a fan was waiting for me behind the screen. T did not realize that the inning was starting, and while 1 was making the trade Zachary hit an easy fiy out my way that I should have cnught easily. I was back by the bleacher fenc nd it went for a two-base hit a mearly lost the game again for ux. But I finally got that home-run ball and sent it home to my kid. That homer was, the biggest thrill I ever got out of any ball game.
