Of my fights it was one of the easy ones. Eustache was easily defeated—again through a plan of battle worked out beforehand by Descamps and myself. I was growing very fast at this time and, as the welterweights were rather scarce in those parts at the time it seemed certain that [ must soon grad- He went along | Bate Into the school of middleweights. And what a school it was. I think of it now with many a congratulatory smile. Here was I, tho baby of Lens, only 17 years old, and on the verge of entering the greatest class of fight- ers the world ever has seen. Fight fans of this country know what it was. There was Billy Papke, Frank Klaus, Harry Lewis, Willie Lewis and a host of others. They were fighters. Ah, how they could punch and box. Fast as lightning they were. They taught me things which T hope to use to good purpose when I meet the worl@'s champion. Jack Dempsey. That class has faded now, but it never will be forgotten because those men wera so wonderfui. But before I pass on to a description of the terrible fights [ had with those American middleweights, there are wseveral intervening episodes, There was the fight with Goldswain the Englishman, which 1 won easily. He had Peld an English champlon- ship and this inspired in me some curiosity, for he was the first of the English title-holders I ever faced. In the ring he looked so much superior to me that even I sensed it and was amused. But at this time I was in splendid health and in wonderful condition, T never felt any alarm over the out- come. I beat Goldswain quickly and decisively. Shortly after Goldswain there came over from England a chap named Ar- thur. Evernden. Weo were matched to fight at Cabourg. I recall with some regrets this bat- tle, for it made me feel very keenly that blows are sometimes of little ef- fect in winning a fight. I had come to the bellef that the Americans were right in their tearing, slugging meth- ods, but Evernden quickly showed me the folly of employing this course at all times, This Englishman was, oh so strong! Hard as iron he was and strong as a bull. I have since heard that he was & blacksmith before he took up box- ing and that must be where he hard- ened his muscles. There were times when his blows sickened me, they were so hard. I doubted seriously at' times whether I would be equal to the task of winning. I started after Evernden with a rush and was almost knocked out at the' beginning. For a few rounds I al- lowed myself the folly of attempting ! to beat him with heavy blows, but he shook them off llke water, It was dis- couragingly ineffective and that made RUNS FOR WEEK MAY 20 TO JUNE 4 American League AMT.W.T.rAT™ New York o Boston Phil, Wash'gton 1 Chicago Adams | St. Louis d four hits for three runs in the | Detroit nning and was replaced by Pon- the second, but after two men gled he also retired In llow Horse.

Through this means . 1 did win this bout, but it was one of | the hardest and most perplexing problems 1 ever encountered. We fought for fifteen rounds. 1 have no apology to make for the fight which followed. T lost it through a pure picce of folly, but T am sure | the people of the United States will not begrudge me ithe opportunity to | explain its eircumstances, for it was an American negro, Dixie Kid, whom ! 1 met. The bout with Evernden loft me in a rather bad condition. The fight took much out of me and left me very jaded and tired. | Dixie Kid is a queer looking indi- vidual, having something about him that reminds one of a gorilla. He looked to me to be very old, but he professed to be young,-and maybe he was. Many fighters have gone to Paris from this country to fight, but of them all I am sure there was not one who was so strange. He scarcely seemed human. Certainly there was something abnormal about him. He was of a nut-brown color, which made him appear even worse. Dixie Kid beat me. I was forced to quit the fight in the fifth round be- cause of illness after he had landed a body punch. T had entered the ring in # fever, rather than break my word to the promoter of the bout. .I hoped, rather than believed. that my burn- ing body would be able to withstand this negro's attack. but, alas, it did not. ‘1 became too ill to stand and the referec put a stop to the unequal contest The subsequent history of Dixie Kid mixed him in a brawl in Paris dl!l‘\n‘| the war. T believe, and I later heard | he was in Spain. TO NAME REFEREE SOON. Erde Or Brennan Likely to Be Chosen for Bout on July 2. Atlantic N. J., May 31.—Se- lection of a referee to decide world’s heavyweight champion test between Jack Dempsey Georges Carpentier at Jersey July 2, will probably be made this week, according to information at the heavyweight champion’'s camp vesterday. ! Members of the New Jersey state ' boxing commission said the fhird | man in the ring had practically been selected, but official announcement | would be withheld for a few days. Judging from the advance indications, | the choice will be between Harry J. Ertle of Jersey City and “Slim" Bren- nan of Newark, with the indications favoring the final selection of Ertle. Robert Dougherty, chairman of the commission, together with Thomas Casidy, secretary, and Commissioner Lyons, were in conference with Jack Kearns, manager of the heavyweight Carsidy, secretary, and Commissioner Tiyons said a meeting of the New Jersey commission would be held Wednesday, at which time the selec- tion would likely be made. i City. the con- and City H BOUT IS STOPPED.

Indianapolis, May 31.—Tommy Mil- ‘ton, winner of the ninth 500-mile automobile race at the Speedway yes- terday in record breaking time over a 'field of internationally kmown driv- ‘ers representing four countries, brought his American made car through to victory by a margin much 'less than his three lap lead on Ros- ‘coe Sarles, second place finisher, in- dicated, it became¢ known today. Mil- fton drove the last few miles of his race with only seven cylinders of his car hitting and was on the verge of going out several times. Milton, holder of the world's speed record, took the lead when De Palma went out after driving his own car iand those of many other pilots to pieces through the ruthless pace he =set. Near the end of the race Milton repeatedly kept signalling to his pit mechanics but refused to stop. With only a few miles to go, he rushed in for gas but refused to wait for en- ‘ gine repairs, for Sarles then was only half a lap behind. When he brought ' his car over the line first it was found that one cylinder was fouled and that the winner had been driving on seven cylinders for several miles. Had he stopped, Sarles would have been a sure winner, for he always kept at Milton's heels. The race proved a great day for " American cars and for Indianapolis cars in particular. Bight of the nine finishers were American made and seven of them were manufactured + here. Milton- established a new track rec- {ord for cars of not more than 183 cubic inches piston displacement by completing the 500 miles in 5 hours 34 minutes and 44.65 seconds, for an average of 89.62 miles per. hour. The , fastest time ever made in the Speed- ' way races was only 20-100 of a mile tastep per hour, this mark being made by Palma in 1915. — MISS STIRLING LOSES.
