New York, May 4—President John K. Tener of the ‘ational league an- nounced today that he had suspended Charles Herzog, manager of the Cin- cinnati club, for five days, for his altercation with Umpire Rigler at St. Louis last Saturday. Umpire Hart, who arbitrated on the ‘bases during the St. Louls-Cincinnati game, also was reprimanded by Pres- ident Tener for not following the dis- puted play closely thus necessitating an appeal to Rigler behind the plate, which caused the latter to become in- volved in fisticuffs with Herzog, Glasgow Will Have Fast Team.

' One naturally would expect Clabby to be in the front rank next to Gib- s. In fact, prior to their meet- ing over the 10-round. route in the ‘West, Clabby was regarded as the premier middleweight of America. He showed a weak defense at intervals in the Gibbons bout; his blows lacked force and snap and his judgment of distance was faulty. These defects facing spelled defeat, ‘was over the St. Paul wonder was ac- claimed a victor by popular opinion. The usual excuse of “lack of condi- “off in his 'training” followed Clabby’'s manager, Barney Lichten- stein, sought a return match over a longer route. Gibbons is no mara- thon boxer. He is of the thorough- bred types and believes he can beat any man in the world in a limited number of rounds up to 20. After that limit, Gibbons says it purely becomes a question of endurance, to which even skill ofttimes must bow. ‘When Promoter Klegin received Gib- bons’ consent to box any three men in the world, Clabby was first named. Then came Young Ahearn. The flashy Lancashire middleweight, who is now making Brooklyn his home, has per- formed some rare feats in the ring. Stripped Ahearn weighs 154 pounds in perfect physRal condition. He has met middleweights, light-heavyweights and even men scaling 30 pounds more than himself and yet he has boxed rings around them. He made Jack Dillon, rated as the best light-heav: weight in the world, look like a novige in a six round bout. Ahearn’s skill dexterity, ring artifice and speed in using the ring have baffled his op- ponnents on both sides of the At- lantic. Ahearn is as clever with his bands, faster on his feet, but cannot hit as hard as Gibbons. He, however, is not invincible, as was proven in a recent bout with Leo Houck .at the Irving Athletic club New York. Houck had Ahearn in bad shape in the ninth and tend rounds of their contest having dropped the elusive for a count of nine. It was this bout that brought Houck in the limelight again as a middle- weight contender| Four years ago in a Paris ring Houck fought 20 of the most sensa- tional rounds ever witnessed at the French capital. He received the re- feree’s decision over Harry Lewis, who was then the premier middleweight of Europe. The French public acclaimed Houck as the best man of his weight in the world. They were_ willing to back their judgment, too, for they offered the young Lancaster boxer a purse of $10,000 if he would remain in Paris and defend the title. 7 Houck was homesick, however. He longed for home and mother. The quiet country life of Lancaster Coun- ty appealed more to him than the bright lights of Paris. It seemed no amount of money could lure him from his purpose. In the ring you would call it stubbornness. For the once Houck was stubborn and returned home. Then followed a busy cam- paign. In turn he met every middle- weight of any reputation in America with varying success. He had two reverses. Both were excusable. Jack Dillon broke two of Leo’s ribs in a bout January 1, 1912, in Indianapolis, which was stopped in the sixth round because Houck was physically unable to raise one of his arms. Again, Feb- ruary 23, 1914, Houck lost to Billy Murray in San Francisco in the 14th round. Houck had taken the bout on a few days' notice, traveled across the continent and fought with but little training. Murray is a slugger pure and simple and has little class, for he was subsequently knocked out twice in short order by George Chip. Houck has a wonderful straight left and, a la Willard and Jack Johnson, possesses a deadly right-hand upper- cut. His heart is as stout as his body is strong, and he should be re- lg‘at.;‘ded as a serious contender for the itle. Jeff Smith, an American boy who is making ring history in Australia, Where he is recognized as the middle- weight title holder, expects to return to this country before the snow flies. His manager, Al- Lippe, says that Smith will be right in line for Gib- bons or any other 158-pound man who ‘disputes his claim. Smith has met with only two re- ‘verses in his entire ring career. He lost a 20-round decision to Georges Carpentier in Paris before going to Australia and one of 20 rounds to Ed- die McGoorty in Sydney. Since then he beat Pat Bradley by the knockout route in 16 rounds for the Australian championship and received a 20-round decision over Jimmy Clabby at Sydney, June 6, of last vear, for the title. . This is the array of boxers who are in Mike Gibbons’ pathway toward the middleweight crown. Clabby i 21 years old; Ahearn is 23; Houck 26 Smith 24 and Gibbons, who has been nominated to defend the title, is 27. So they all possess the recuperative powers of youth and the mental bal- ance of men. All are temperate in their habits, and each is a credit to -2 | the ring spor o L.

THE SCRAMBLE FOR MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE Gibbons Declares He Will Knock Down All Men Standing Between Him and the Laurels. Mike Gibbons, the St. Paul wonder, may not be the best middleweight in the world, but there is one pro- moter who thinks he is and is willing to back his judgment with real coin. ‘While in Havana in the course of the world’s heavyweight champlonship battle, Richard Klegin, a man who has been a successful promoter in Europe, made a proposition to Gibbons which the latter immediately accepted. The most convincing way for a boxer to prove his merit is to compete. No end of newspaj chatter or press agents’ adjectives will make a champion. The ring is the clearing house. Gibbons believes in that, so he to meet any three men in the world whom Klegin would select or the public elect. “In fact,” eaid Gibbons, “I will meet any boxer in the world who thinks he stands between me and the middle- weight title. Now who are the men who are be- tween Gibbons and a clear right to the In considering the candidates son. ner. 0— |the suits generally at BAN JOHNSON FAVORS WITHDRAWAL OF SUITS Between Organized Ball and the Fed- eral League. L Boston, May 4—Ban B. Johnson, president of the American league, to- day declared himself in favor of with- drawing from the courts of the coun- try suits between organized baseball and the Federal league. A suggestion to this eect from Philip Ball, presi- dent of the St. Louis club of the Fed- eral league, met with his consent, Mr, Johnson explained that in an earlier statement to the effect that he was willing to have the suit in the Illinois federal court now awaiting de- cision by Judge Kenisaw M. Landis, withdrawn, he did not refer to this case in particular. “The suggestion and my acceptance of it,” he said, “referred to issue between the Federal league interests and those allied with the national commission. Baseball should have been kpt out of th courts and it is not now too late to reach an agreement outside of the court rooms, I believe.” President Johnson read despatches from various sections of the country in which other baseball league officials said they knew nothing of the proposal to withdraw the suits, He smiled as he read some of them, but he declined to_make any comment. In addition to the suit pending be- fore Judge Landis, in which it has President Johnson said the other suits to which organized baseball and the Federal league either directly or indi- rectly were parties, aected individual players who had jumped contracts. He expressed the opinion that the national pastime as professionalized “would be bettered by the ‘trials which it is undergoing.” He asserted that peace, or an agreement between organ- ized baseball and the Federal league was not immediately in sight and had not recently been discussed, but he added that he had no fears for the future. No Baseball Suits Withdrawn, Chicago, May 4.—None of the base- ball suits pending before Judge Landis in the United States district court here has been withdrawn, it was stated by -the clerk of the court today.
