M COWLER, the glass- chinned heavyweight, who was knocked stiff by Jack Renault the other night, is the same bird that Jim Corbett tried to make into a heavy- weight contender when Jack Johnson was champion. Corbett spent a lot of time and a lot of coin trying to teach Cowler how.to fight, but the only thing Cowler did well was to collapse when he took a punch on the teeth. Corbett took ‘him to Australia and sent him against a bunch of setups, trying to work him into a card, but ly gave him up for good when he was knocked silly several times upon his return to America. . “Gentleman Jim" is a notoriously bad picker when it comes to naming ‘winners in sporting events, and his Judgment in fighters is just about as bad, His latest bust was Jack Mo- Auliffe, the Detroit heavyweight, Broken Pin Cost Brady Major Job Fractured Leg Sent New Indian Infielder Back to Minors in 1922 AS Cliff Brady, new Seattle In: fielder, completely recovered from a broken leg, sustained in the fall of 19227 with the Detroit Tigers by the frac: WALTER CAM Has Brady Recovered From Broken Leg?
