Pitzpatrick \Spo}togmphy BY “GRAVY.” This is the sixty-second sary of the birth of Paddy Ryan, the great Irish fighter who was John Sullivan’s predecessor as champion of America. Like most of the early American champions, Paddy was born under the British flag. The Irish town of Thurles, in County Tipperary, was the scene of Ryan’s mundane de- but on March 31, 1863. He early fol- lowed the tide of Hibernian emigra- tion to the New World, and settled in Troy, N. Y., where in his vyouth he was employed as an ironworker. The Collar City was one of the livest pugilistic towns on the map, and the local fans still reveled in memories of John C. Heenan, John Morrissey and other Trojans who had com- menced their fighting careers in the town on the Hudson. Paddy soon caught the fever, and by the time he was twenty-five had made a fair repu- 24 9 28 28 21 o off on an early tation as a fighter. At the time the Trojan from Tip- perary began his ring career there were several claimants to the Ameri- can champlonship. Joe Goss, an Englishman, claimed the honor after defeating Tom Allen, another British- anniver- er, in Covington, Ky., in 1876. A couple of years later Jimmy Elliott announced himself as champion, but in 1879 he was defeated by Johnny Dwyer. The latter was soon stricken with tuberculosis and did not survive long and Joe Goss was again recog- nized as champion. Goss was born in Wolverhampton, England, and fought Jem Mace and other leading English boxers before coming to America. He was in his forty-second year when he fought Paddy Ryan for the championship at Collier Station, W. Va., in the spring of 1880. That battle with the “raw ‘uns” ranks as one of the classic con- tests of the American prize ring. The veteran Goss, in spite of his more than two-score years, fought like a demon, and the Tipperary man | seemed several times on the point of golng. down to defeat before his old but experienced antagonist. Tt was not until eighty-seven rounds had been fought that youth triumphed over age, and Ryan was declared the champion of America. \ Paddy Ryan cleared only a couple of hundred dollars from that fight of elghty-seven furious rounds—a sum that would be scoffed at by any but a dub for a six-round bout in | these days of high finance. Roston Strong Boy,” to the front, and in 1881 an attempt was made to match him with Ryan, but it fell through for the time. Lat- er in the year Jawn again challenged | Paddy, and the latter accepted. The battle was staged at Mississippi City, Miss., early in 1882, and was for a purse of $5,000 and the championship of America. Ryan was an inch short of six feet, about half an inch taller than Sully, jand they were about evenly matched as to weight. The sports expected Paddy to win, and they were sur- prised when Sullivan quickly demon- ! strated that his punches were harder land quicker than the champion's. John 1. smashed through his guard with crushing right-handers, and in the fourth round Ryan's jaw was broken, but he fought on gamely till | the ninth. when a right to the jaw dropped Paddy for the full count. Ryan and Sullivan attempted to fight again in New York in 1885, but the police stopped the bout. The next year Sullivan knocked out Ryan in the third round in San ¥Francisco.

E 72 103 Princeton 87 118 Cornell . 92 126 Pennsylvania 86 129 | Yale played the cleanest, as well as the best basketball in the inter- collegiate league champlonship series | which ended last week when the Elis captured the title with a record of eight games won and two lost. In the official compilation of fouls called on the players during the season the Blue was the luckiest, being set down for only 92 infractions of the rules, against 129 for Pennsylvania, which was the worst offender. Co- lumbia was next to the top with 95, Dartmouth was third with 103, Princeton fourth with 118 and Cor- nell fifth with 125. That Yale's team played an ex- ceptionally fine brand of basketball is shown by the fact that only 69 per- fouls were called as against 72 on Dartmouth and 79 on Colum- bia. Cornell was penalized 92 times for personal fouls, Princeton, 87, and Pennsylvania, 86. Never in the his- tory of the league series has the «championship team returned such a small total of penalties, 662 Fouls Called. Altogether 662 fouls were called during the season, or an average of 23 per game. The worst game was the Pennsylvania-Princeton encoun- ter at Philadelphia, at which 46 fouls were called. The Columbia-Cornell game at New York, with 41 fouls, was” not much better. One of the most cleanly played games was the Yale-Columbija game, in which only 15 fouls were called. Seelbach of Pennsylvania was the worst individual offender, wita a to- tal of 37, of which 22 were personals. McTigue of Princeton, another cen- ter, was next on the list with 33.
