Pu, Altrough Jack Johnson was the only recognized champion to lose his title during the year drawing to a close there are a number of boxers who ap- pear to be on the verge of ascending or descending the pugidistic ladder during 1916. In the bantam class Johnny Ertle has fought his way to a_point where he divides honors with Kid Williams; Johnny Kilbane has several dangerous rivals for his feath- erwelght titular crown; among the lightweights Freddie Welsh still holds the championship although Charley ‘White and one or two other candidates for the title are clamoring for a chance to win it from the English boxer. Ted Lewis, Johnny Griffith and Mike Glover appear to be the leading contenders for the welterweight honors while in the middleweight division Young Ahearn, Mike Gibbons, Les Darcy, all claim superiority over Al McCoy, the nom- inal champion. Jack Dillon and Bat- tling Lavinsky are the leading con- tenders for the light heavy title, while Jess Willard reigns supreme in the heavyweight class. ANDREWS BIDDING FOR WILLARD-FULTON FIGHT. Milwaukee Promoter Offers Jess $25,000 for 10 Round Bout. Milwaukee, W Dec. 30.—T. S. An- drews, local boxing promoter, said to- day he expected to meet Jess Willard and his manager in Chicago next Sat- urday or Sunday to begin negotiations for a 10 round bout between Willard and Fred Fulton of Rochester, Minn. Andrews said if the parties involved could agree on terms the bout prob- ably would be staged late in Febru- ary. Andrews today received a telegram from Willard’s manager saying Pro- moter Burns had refused to reconsider his decision to call off the New Or- leans bout. “Am ready to do business with you,” the telezram added. Andrews said he would renew offer of §$25,000 for a 10 round go. his Pitcher Kantlehner, who gives great promise of developing into a great star bitchey of the Pittsburgh team, also does other things aside from pitching. The averages show him to be the best hitting pitcher in the older organiza- tion.

Chicago, Dec. 30.—The University of Chicago baseball team returned to Chicago today after a trip through the Orient of more than ten thousand miles. The athletes reported that baseball is growing more popular than ever in Japan. They said the Japanese have developed the habit of baiting the umpires and that they refuse to sup- port a losing team, much after the manner of American followers. of the game. The inability of the native teams to defeat the Americans caused a great decrease in the attendance, it was said. In the Philippines too there is en- th m over baseball, _although Americans make up most of the at- tendance.
