Detroit, May 15.—After having a seven run lead erased, forcing the game into extra innings, New York fell on Sylvester Johnson's offerings in the 12th, scored eight runs and defeated Detroit 16 to 11 yesterday. Cobb's strategy in removing Cole in the 12th when two men were on bases and sending Johnson, a right hander, to replace him, proved disastrous.

Sullivan over 30 years| ago. But it is extremcly doubtful, how- gver, it a more startling and unex- | pected surprise was ever handed fol- | lowers of the ring than the defeat of | Terry McGovern by Young Corbett in | 3l their featherweight titular battle at| Hartford, Conn., Nov, 28, 1901, Not| only in the outcome of the bout is this | true, but in the quick and precise | manner in which it 'terminated as| well, it The dethroning of the Brooklyn Loy on that memorahle occasion will never be forgotten, It created a sen- sution which shocked the entire pugil- istic world. It came almost like a great catastrophe, for ‘Terrible Ter- ry" had been dropping ambitlous op- ponents in reckless fashion ever cince he won the title from that gallant fighter, George Dixon, Terry had waded through the fleld in easy man- ner, leaving & trail of beaten foes in his wake. His followers, and lheyj included folk in all walks of life,!| Qhought him well nigh invincible— unbeatable, . Out of The West But out of the . west came one Young Corbett, practically unknown, save for a few bhouts he had p-rucl-] pated in out on the coast. A gooa‘ boy in his class, ventured the wise ones, but out of place with a lad like MeGovern. Consequently, Young Corbett was a rank outsider as the| two boys squared away in the Hart. ford arena. Just another ''set u for the champion was the general opinion. What the clean-cut Denver youth did to McGovern, hewever, 18 history. For Corbett, undismayed and un- afraid of the savage-like attack of the redoubtable Terry, went right at the titleholder, and ere that first round was over had the crowd “sit- tin' up.” End Came in Second The end came in the second ses. sion when the challenger sent the great McGovern to the canvas for the fatal count. And thus was another ring champion deprived of his much cherished crown. And by a boy who had hardly been heard of east of the Rocky Mountains.
