Grant announced that he finally had snared the young infielder, whose services were sought by nearly all of the other major league clubs. Jack Stlattery, the Harvard coach, ig connected with the Braves as scou and assistant, so the influence which made Conlon decide in favor of Grant's team is easy to trace. In 1921 and 1922 Conlon received & cup for being the most valuable player on the Harvard team. lLast spring he Jed the Crimson nine in Lat- ting, with an average of .360. He| made two home runs and stole night bascs. In fielding his average was .875. The majors were after Conlon in 1921, but he declined to consider any offers at that time.

DUNDEE RETAINS TITLE BY BEATING MARTIN WS R . Junior Lightweight Champion is Given the Decision at Boston—Some Fans Express Disapproval. Boston, Jan. 20.—Johnny Dundee of New York, junior lightweight champion, was awarded the decision over Pepper Martin of Brooklyn at the close of their ten-round bout here last night. Dundee weighed 131% pounds and Martin 132%. Martin took. {two rounds, according to ringside opinion, and two were even. The remaining six went to Dundee by a shade. A section of the crowd did not share this view, how- ever, and the decision met with jeers as well ag cheers. In the opening round Martin stag- gered Dundee with a right swing to the head. Dundee came baek in the second and this and the third round were even. In the next three it was a ding-dong battle, the honors going to the junior lightweight champion, but Martin forged to the front once more in the seventh, when he pressed Dundee with rights and lefts from every angle. For the remainder of the bout Dundee outboxed and out- generaled his opponent.

LEW TENDLER WINS " OVER PAL MORAN Philly Sontbpaw Beats New Orleans Boy Al the Way New York, Jan, 20.—Lew Tendler, Philadelphia’s southpaw lightweight, battered the championship aspiration out of Pal Moran of New Orleans last night before a crowd of more than 13,000 persons in Madison Square Garden, During most of the fifteen gruclling rounds Tendler pounded the Crescent city lad before him in & withering fire of blows to the face bd body, and at the final bell the Philadeiphian was awarded the deel- sion, Tendler clearly established his right to the victory., He won all but one round of the fifteen, Moran's only round was the third, From that peint on and in the twe opening rounds Tendler was entitied to thé honors, Moran Made Friends Though defeated Morsn was not disgraced. He left the ring with moré admirers than he could boast of when he clambered on the battle platform. The New Orleans light- weight, in withstanding the terrific fire of the hardhitting Tendler, gave the large crowd an exhibition of gumeness and courage under difficul- ties which has seldom been excoll® in a local ring. Moran was subjected to an assault which would have caused a fefis cour- acgous fighter to succumb long before fifteen rounds had been completed, but Moran never wilted. On the con- trary, he fought back gamely, lash- Ing out with desperate blows i: a futile endeavor to turn the tide right up to the clang 6f the final gong. Tendler Attacks Boay Tendler's wicked body punehing won the battle for the Philadelphign. With two piston-like fists driven homie with dynamic power, Tendler grad- ually weakened the resistance or Maran and lessened the power back of the New Orlefns lightweight's punches. To many in the crowd it was remarkable that Moran stood up urder the battering. After the tentn round many in the crowd expected to sec Moran guccumb, but the New Orleans boxer went along grimly and refused to go down, despite Tendlep's mertiless attempts to score a kneck- out. / CRESCENTS WIN AGAIN This Time It Is the Redwings That Fell Victims To Fast Traveling Youngsters.
